"there are no wrong builds or other video gamey stuff" is all I usually say and then just kind of let people explore. I don't think day 2 hardstuck is much of a thing anymore, right?

explaining health and healing items is good, ive seen non gamers struggle with that. Explaining that you can hold down a key to see stuff to interact with and that you should interact with everything, thats good too. Basically, give them info they need to speak the language the game is speaking. The rest is pretty much completely unnecessary or actively harmful to the experience

oscarthewilde posted:A pertinent question and answer, but one that might be a bit too cynical. When you look at Derrida's political and legal theory, and his interpretation of Schmitt, he questions the very foundations of the Western constitutional order. Instead of binding law and politics to some abstract conception of justice, he uncovers a much more contingent, violent foundational element within the not-so-moral law. Yet, if law is not so strictly bound by morality and justice, that does not make morality and justice meaningless concepts. Justice is moved from something entirely within law, to a useful measure outside of law, realisable in extra- and intraparliamentary practice and theory: justice becomes possible through deconstructing the law. Legitimacy, in that sense, becomes something much more contingent and conditional than assumed in legal philosophy (is it any wonder that the society described as legitimate by legal philosophers always resembles the theory behind Western liberal democracy. The fact that political practice so often fails to resemble political theory, and the rule of law might be much less strong than expected in those 'necessarily good' Western democracies, is ignored) but is still useful. A legitimate authority becomes a possibility worth fighting for, instead of a meaningless factum. OK, but I'd say that the legitimacy of any to be established legitimate authority must derive from the actions it take to materially benefit at the very least those over whom it holds authority. So imo, any revolutionary struggle should focus on doing that, and legitimacy may then be achieved as a by-product. What I would see as a great possible threat is that people who might otherwise take action to achieve those ends are instead persuaded to inaction because they feel they lack the legitimacy to oppose existing (illegitimate!) authorities and power structures. I don't think you can start from legitimacy and go from there. Legitimacy is part of how you're going to be judged after the fact.

What stats/path is it worth going down if I want to focus on the Pale, general weirdness, and whatever else surrounds it? My first playthrough was a mess and I managed to miss like 80% of the content, my current ons is a moralist/ultralib playthrough with a heavy focus on Int/Psy because I hear you get a lot of good Kim content that way.

The "weird" path is probably PSY/FYS, focusing on Inland Empire and Shivers. Beyond that it's all about dialogue choices. I recommend going for a "Supranatural Investigator" run.

Inland Empire and Shivers have the most supranatural stuff (as you might expect). Though you do need a good logic for some later checks and a bunch of interfacing to dance to the most amazing sounds. Another option is to have a good Conceptualization, get Art Cop and Jamais Vu ASAP and basically have a lot of XP.

At high levels, Rhetoric will make you an impressive political beast – one whose beliefs are impenetrable. Which is to say, one whose mind will not change; one who will calcify. The last one hurts you for -1 morale, much like being too sad to jerk off

I was watching the Joseph Anderson stream linked upthread and hoo boy is he a clueless centrist who can't pronounce things. But that's ok, still an interesting perspective. Somebody in his chat even mentioned how it was 'only the political people' who were frustrating in the game, compared to the apolitical person he was talking to now. He was talking to Joyce.

Thank god its sold out or I would have mashed that buy button like harry mashed a rotten foot in a pot. I love, LOVE, the fact that they continued their merch in the way they have. Limited things suck, but well made things are better than mass produced garbage. I'd love to own any of the items they sell, but they're out of my price range and that's okay. One day I'll buy Kim's jacket...one day. Thanks to everyone itt continuing the conversation about philosophical references. I know poo poo about philosophy but I love this game and love reading breakdowns of the minutia of the characters.

I couldn’t tell if he was joking cause he was trying to play as a certain type of character, I think someone from persona 3, cause he clearly chooses the left wing ideas, and also makes jokes and said certain things during the dialogue with the deserter that made me think that he was trying to play a certain way that wasnt how he would play it normally or whatever. But I’ve only seen like the first and last vods so idk. I don’t really like his reviews that much, but I really enjoyed his playthrough of outer wilds, and last week he streamed the dlc for the game which was great.

he was ostensibly faux-roleplaying as Yusuke from Persona 5 but he dropped it pretty quickly and only went back to that well when he either remembered or cared. possibly pressure from chat to exhaust as much of the content as possible, a lot of people were backseating and telling him to talk to certain NPCs at specific times and what to say to advance questlines.

i bullied my friend into playing this finally and he’s enjoying it. i only did because he was being stubborn but it’s right up his alley. i think i’ve played it 1.5 times but watched lots of ppl play it. SGF and Woolie being my favorite runs, both doing nearly everything in the entire game. SGFs run was about 65 hours and Woolie’s was 85 hours.
