Fired it up and attempted to re-try my "real cop" run on a whim. If you're curious how that went, he accomplished nothing of note, attempted to arrest everybody, became a racist twice, got his rear end kicked by Measurehead twice, and then died of a heart attack brought on by cognitive dissonance shortly after meeting a successful, powerful woman. I think I'll just call it there.

If they haven't put out a date yet that's not a great sign for us getting it in March, but who knows?

So today I learned that there's an official Disco Elysium discord, and also that there's still no release date for the final version.

As long as it still falls in the realm of March 2021 I will be very happy. And also hearing Half Light and maybe Authority freak the gently caress out about EVERYTHING

Half Light Fear! Aggression! Half Light is your fight or flight response. This one’s definitely the chattiest of the bunch. Not only does he mix well with a high Physical Instrument, telling you to smash everyone in the face before they strangle you in your sleep, Half Light also has some pretty keen observations. There is a saying in Estonian: fear has big eyes. So Half Light and its big bulging fear-filled eyes may notice things the other skills miss. Half Light does not only get scared of people, it also gets scared of ideas and concepts. Sometimes a person’s name can fill you with terror. Why? Perhaps they’re more than they seem to be. Perhaps you’re paranoid? One of the nicest things to do with Half Light is aggressively interrogate suspects. Barraging them with nonsensical, frightening questions: did you kill him? Why did you kill him? Are you going to kill me like you killed him?! A low Half Light, strangely enough, makes you both less aggressive and less afraid. In a way braver. The name most likely comes from the saying + trying to see things hiding in low visibility. Saint Freak fucked around with this message at 15:45 on Mar 3, 2021 |

It's actually going to be fully voice acted right? Because that's insane.

I just wonder how stuff like this will be narrated or voice acted, when there is dialogue for a character who then does something else that isn't dialogue, sometimes even more than once:

If you've played Divinity Original Sin 2, I imagine it will be very similar to that. Just with a much, much larger script.

Samovar posted:I wonder why it is called Half Light and Flight/Fight? It's meant to evoke the feeling of something seen but not seen well enough to form a cogent impression of it, which creates fear and uncertainty. It's evoking the animal response of jumping at shapes in the dusk or twilight and your mind assigning those shadows far more sinister form than they actually might possess. Your mind interpreting the shadow of a rabbit into that of a bear for example. Dying light casts long shadows. You could also see it as the light of your consciousness being subsumed by the darkness of your subconscious, the animalistic dimming the rational mind. I think it's some very good word choice that conjures up a more physical image than a drier word like "paranoia" would have.

Breetai posted:I want a mod where you gain a single point in half light every time you take damage. that's a neat idea. it sounds like it would be the result of a completed thought cabinet thought, tbh. probably about feeling overwhelmed by all the horrible knowledge you're gaining about the world and yourself, and caused by you learning one too many bad things? or from needing to save yourself from dying via healing at 0 health or morale more than a couple times? named like, "back against the wall" or "under the gun" or something? idk, but its fun to think about. edit: "fear of the dark" because it's half-light flailing and trying to point its light at every errant shadow, now that it's been kicked into overdrive from the animal panic of close calls. do not go gentle into that good night, and all that.

Speaking of, there should be a mechanic where if you have an absurd pain threshold value like 12 or 14 or higher [Godly/impossible check levels] you basically get a second chance if your endurance/volition drops to 0 and you don't heal in time, acting as a 1up. But only once. This may or may not synergize with the fact you can have a heart attack if you take off a raincoat when you have only one block of health left, automatically dropping to 0 health and dying immediately

In the original write-ups, Pain Threshold was meant to help you with heart attacks and Esprit De Corps was meant to help you with morale failures. And Half-light is from a translation of an Estonian saying/figure of speech IIRC? Wait, checked https://discoelysium.com/devblog/2018/04/11/meet-the-skills-physique ' There is a saying in Estonian: fear has big eyes. So Half Light and its big bulging fear-filled eyes may notice things the other skills miss.' So, not quite.

Well apparently we're going to get a drop date for the Final Cut sometime this week. A bunch of people in the discord were thinking it will come out either late this week or early next week based on some really wild thought processes. The dev posted a picture that was just pink, so obviously that's a reference to Pink Floyd, Pink Floyd's [album name I cant remember] came out on March 24th [some amount of] years ago! So obviously it's a secret message that DE is going to drop on March 24th! It's all conspiracy bullshit to me, but I mean we only have 16 more days in the month and the devs are still insisting that it's coming out in March. So maybe the 24th?
