Kim, and his lack of Visual Calculus skills is probably why he is unable to solve the case himself. In that way it's probably the closest thing that Harry has to a defining non political trait. It is also why it's plausible that Harry solved the case before he destroyed himself; if in his initial state he was able to realize the trajectory of the bullet was from the island, as the title screen perhaps suggests.

An overdeveloped Visual Calculus skill should make Harry obsessed with assessing asses. Golden ratio diagrams swirling across his vision yes I know the golden ratio is just some made up bullshit

I'm reading the comic Fell by Warren Ellis to prepare to dive back in, and while it shows its age, I can't help but feel like it's some HDB fever dream. Like what he'd sorta be like without Dora to fixate on.

Well, it's not impossible that Harry is an Innocense of some sort. And innocenses are pretty much magic E: and I refuse to beleive that my apocalypse cop herald of doom is not magic Sekenr fucked around with this message at 23:45 on Feb 9, 2023 |

It's really cool.

the atelier restocked but given that its debut (and announcement of the amazon deal) aligned with the timeframe of kurvitz, rostov, and hindpere’s ouster from za/um, my suspicion that opening an atelier was the money men’s idea in the first place means I will not be copping

I watched the LaurenTheFlute stream and one thing she pegged immediately was that when Volition is billed as being for "Sane people, well-adjusted cops and the non-suicidal," that's a content warning; these are deviations from your default state, which is none of those things. It seems obvious in retrospect, but I never caught that.

If anyone knows, what kind of urban environment was Harry in before this game's case?

Precinct 41 operates in the same district as Martinaise, I think they allude to the rest of the district being more densely populated and possibly dangerous. But it also got rebuilt where Martinaise didn’t so it wouldn’t look like as much of a shithole.

It's in Jamrock. Which isn't Martinaise, but it's adjacent to it.

Jamrock is a district of Revachol West comprised of the following quarters: Martinaise, Pox, Villalobos, Central Jamrock, Grand Couron, Old South and the Valley of the Dogs. https://discoelysium.fandom.com/wiki/Jamrock Edit: I have no idea how reliable this is but it sounded right

Martanaise isn't really part of Jamrock so much as one that is contested between it and Kim's. Neither side wants to deal with it which is how we get the whole Kim/Harry compromise in the first place.

Harry is from central jamrock and Kim is from grand couron if I’m not mistaken

Martinaise can’t be jamrock because garte is very insistent that he’s from jamrock and therefore we can’t expect him to bartend in martinaise

Yeah, yet another thing that D.E. does well is content warnings that aren't stupidly explicit (looking at you, Dead Space Remake), like the time one of your skills chimes in saying that if you ask Scab leader to continue his war story, you may not like it.

I'm not sure if i'd consider that "well" or not - it's certainly less immersion breaking and a good heads up for the average player, but I can also see it being much easier to write off or dismiss as flavor/etc.

Harry has trouble being responsible. It's why he has no problem replacing Kim as his partner. Harry might be a superstar cop.

I want to be a fast thinking yet dim psychic. My stats are 1, 5, 2, 4 with Inland Empire tagged. Ill then stack Volition, Reaction Speed, and Ill pick up some Perception, Espirit De Corps and Shivers. Sounds like Harry is in for a real bumpy ride, but he can do it. My question is this: Will my 1 Intellect ruin the Political Vision Quests, especially if I go full sobriety? (I can already hear half my Physique skills calling me bad names.)

You can buy healing items pretty cheap at Frittte pretty much anytime. Like 90 cents a pop or so.

It is, assuming you mean it fails to exit the conversation window and freezes there. I dunno if there's an actual fix, but I went back and did the conversation and made it through on my third try. I switched up my conversation choices and did not touch the controls at all after the final prompt; no idea if it's random or either of those contributed.

I exhausted al the conversation options and then went back and repeated all of them a second time. Worked ok? Who knows man
