There's the infamous failed authority check at the church but you can also call-in to his favorite radio show and and say fascist things, then ask for the DJ to shout out your friend Kim, resulting in Kim also being branded as a fascist and the both of you told never to listen to his show again I've seen this and could never ever go through with it

He doesn’t take it well. It might be the single worst thing I did

Wittgen posted:Being fascist doesn't make Kim hate you. He's a cop, and in end, he cares far more for the fact that you're a fellow cop and good at your job than he does about you having distasteful politics. iirc Kim very much reacts negatively to you being racist (both at the moment going like "what the gently caress", and mechanically by losing Kim Points with him), but not every fascist line is classified as racist (though all racist lines are considered fascist, I think). Generally speaking, Kim doesn't care about your ideology provided you don't *make a scene* out of it. Being racist is the one belief that'll lower his opinion of you even if you try to keep it on the down low, but since in the end the Kim-liking-you mechanic is a numbers game it's still possible for him to personally respect you if you manage to get on his good side outside all the racism. Then again, even if he does end up hating your guts, the two main moments where that comes into play (warning him during the tribunal and calling him to dance) can still be cleared with enough luck, so it's technically possible to complete a racist playthrough facing very few consequences.

It helps that the stakes of this particular case are high enough that he can't afford just to tell you to gently caress off

Made this today when I saw a picture of my favorite hockey player from my favorite era of my favorite team. "Mr. Lamiorello is helping me find my Stanley Cup."

The running theme about fascism being about freezing time was sad and interesting. But it was kind of redundant that all the fascist civilians were incels. There's almost as many women who support fasism, show me that broken character

Harry can directly bring up that the best person to talk to on his vision quest is a women and his fascist thoughts shut it down hard because the essence of fascist Harry makes him unable to take advice from women. Fascism is an incoherent aesthetic of victimhood... honestly, Plaisance would probably be a good fit for it.

Hey so... I only got the game up for the first time on my very non-gamer laptop so I have something to play, and it runs well and is pretty cool! I'm now stuck trying to get the body down. I've examined everything around and got the ammonia which still didn't prevent puking. I'm pretty sure Kim said we can come back in 30 minutes when the wind changes. I came back later and there's still nothing to do. I do have the bolt cutters and from some quick googling, it seems Kim can try to shoot it down? I don't have any dialog options to trigger anything like that though.

You can beat the game without actually retrieving the body so if you can't get your poo poo together just yet maybe work some other angle on the case and come back when you can.

You must compress your poo poo before venturing forth. Incidentally, there is a Thought in your Thought Cabinet which takes 30 minutes to complete

That is basically your (bad) tutorial introduction to how thoughts work. While you are looking at the inventory screen don't forget to look closely at the inventory and notice that some of the stuff is just 'there' and some stuff needs to be put in one of your hands to give you a bonus.

I haven't done the fascist vision quest so I don't know if he's just a regular racist or fash.

Measurehead is a buffoon but the game seems to respect him on some level like all the fascists are ridiculous and sad but he's got his life together (?) in a way the others do not

I think the game has pity for him, in the way that a self-hating Jew might elicit pity.

The game has a smidgin of respect for any character who believes in something and wants to change the world according to that belief. Conversely it has pity/contempt for any character who professes to believe in something but only to mask their own failings or as an excluse to act in a way they want to (this includes Harry).

Rene has pride and doesn't give a poo poo about anyones, even the games, pity. He is very interesting! Definitely seems to be meant as a mirror image of the sniper and how they have moved on after defeat/loss.. Rene in a different life would have made an upstanding Communist.

It’d be like shooting himself. It would also be the end of another antique from the revolutionary era that he can not and will not move on from.

Still laughing at the sniper saying he can walk around town and everyone assumes he's just another antisocial bum. My dude, that's cause it's s exactly what you are.

I would have liked to see Rene's take on the sniper.

I think he’d have mad respect for him, one antique soldier to another. I think he’d admire that he never surrendered and is still living the fight.

I think he’d do nothing but insult the sniper and talk about how he should have been put down like a dog, but in a weird, almost admiring way

It’s the old man seething respectful hate. Y’all not spend any time around WWII vets? My grandpa was on Guadalcanal with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Basilone in there you’ll see a line with only two other marines left standing (one was my grandpa). He would talk about the Japanese that way. They extremely nailed it with Rene / The sniper.

Pattonesque posted:there's nothing that sort of old man loves more than an easily identifiable enemy There’s that, but I think on some level Dros also recognizes that to kill Rene means to possibly kill the last person in the world who understands the world they both miss — the world that made sense to both of them. Once he dies, that world, that past really is gone forever.
