Rimusutera posted:About two days in game time in, I legitimately broke down crying IRL a bit after back to back talking to the old anti-communist vet and his friend after inquiring about the meaning of the flowers from the hotel roof, followed by talking to the Dice maker about the curse and unlocking the lines about the nature of roleplaying games and why people play them I think the thing is that they work in tandem. It's the silly moments that get you to let your guard down so the serious ones can hit you harder.

You can also turn caps lock on and single click runs.

If you play the whole game without running anywhere does Kim still ask what's with the running?

After I got shot in the dick and someone said to take it easy on the running, I tried doing some walking for a bit. That was completely not disco, though.

Good to know about the runnin' but I still think I'll hold out for the enhanced edition. Got no problem starting Day 1 over and being more aggressively disco.

A lot of people seem to assume that the facts of things like the protagonist's backstory and even the identity of the murderer change depending on your choices. I'm not sure where they get that from, but they don't. His backstory in particular is about piecing together parts of a whole, and it's easy to miss a lot. Is there any particular reason to encourage the kids to open the dance club with or without the drug lab?

I think the broad sweep remains the same, but at least HDB's past political leanings are influenced by you choices. The end-game Esprit-de-Corps check where your captain is discussing the upcoming uprising seems to imply this; his reasons for counting Harry as reliable change depending on your political opinions.

They help with Soona's research if you want to know the answers to that. Also a fun sidequest about helping Egg Head. Worth seeing.

Egghead is one of the highlights of the game for me. Working class woman quest was another one. The Pigs was weird and sad. Having the Klassje convo be fully voiced is going to be nuts.

Which brings us to... GOD drat MAZOVIAN SOCIO ECONOMICS posted:problem: People think Communism was some crazy idea that had its comeuppance 40 years ago. A fever that shook the world, never to return again. They were right. Until *he* woke up today – a spiritual corpse responsive only to the call of Commodore Red, prostitutes, and Kras Mazov. For him, Communism is still a *thing*. He will single-handedly raise the Commune of '02 from the oceanic trench where it has been resting, covered in ghosts and seaweed! He is the Big Communism Builder. Come, witness his attempt to rebuild Communism in the year '51! commies thinking that they got brutally owned by Rhetoric? OH NOOO, let's improve this: what about a spiritual vision quest like as a communist shaman to deal with the failure of a new world to be and your own personal loss? *laughs in eastern european*

If the voice acting is as good as what was in the base game, you'll be in for a treat.

# ? Dec 15, 2020 17:06 |

I'm having fun with the base game so I'll just keep playing it, and then spec differently on replay when the expac comes out I think. It's meant to have good replay value just by itself if you do things differently, right?

I'm actually not that stoked on full voice acting. It was really drawn out and annoying during the Limbic/Reptilian segments, and I appreciated that everywhere else, it's just enough for character flavor while still allowing you to read for yourself. A lot of stuff that's really funny or impactful when you read it isn't that funny when someone says it.
