I understand Cyrillic and hieroglyphs do not support fancy font rendering for obvious reasons, so if you can you should still play this game in a language with a Latin letters.

Cyrillic has fancy fonts too! Not sure if they bothered including them in this game, probably not!

I'm talking about the font animation which would require a lot of work for Cyrillic and also would be a little strange if you know how Orthodox monastic writings look. I totally understand devs not doing it and I'm glad they've added other languages, cause this game's language is not easy to comprehend.

Only just got around to playing this now. Act 2 question... So I accused Fernec, and without him the scriptorium shut down, and the abbot gives that as the reason why things are poo poo and he has to squeeze the peasants more. Andreas also seems super depressed and not okay. Did I pick wrong? Or does the abbey falling on hard times/peasants chaffing/depression happen either way?

This game is so good. I got through most of Act 3 on my first play through but didn’t manage to finish it so I started it over yesterday after catching up with the thread. One funny bug I’ve run into, I went to ask Mathieu to give me an advance on my payment and convinced him to do so, but then it seamlessly went into a scene where he’s sternly chastising me for sneaking about the sacristy, lol. You were in there with me Mathieu! I picked ___Lucky___ the first time but this time I went with ___Ferenc___. Oof. Called it quits after Act 1 but will surely barrel through the rest this week. A great way to enjoy this game is by eating the same/similar things you do at the meals while you play it — farmers bread, cured sausage, nuts, fruit. And a Trappist ale if you’re really feeling it.

Finally finished the last act. Great game, great atmosphere, and I was completely surprised by the various twists and turns in the final part of the game. As a testament to its greatness, I’ve now also bought several books on the medieval world.

context question: whats the deal with Andreas going around and eating supper any which where. historically is it just normal that dudes in town show up for dinner randomly? do people just like andreas that much? or is it a game thing

I think it's just sort of a novelty that this weird guy is around and all the townspeople people want the gossip on him, so they lure him in with meats and cheeses. Many such cases

Something I really dug once somebody posted in here to remind me WHY it was happening, but in Act 3 Magdalene doesn't get invited to meals like Andreas did, not because she's from the village or anything but because inviting a young single woman into your house could be scandalous. MMAgCh posted:I seem to remember that no, you still need help with it. I really like that if Father Thomas had taken the time to actually look at the book, he'd have realized she had a copy of the book that had kicked off this entire thing in the first place. what the gently caress, Twitter wants me to log in to actually look at the pictures? gently caress off! I'll just take context from the thumbnails that it's a very cute LGBTQ thing?

There's enough clues to figure it out but the game never actually says it outright and doesn't seem to care about whether you got it right or wrong.

Ferenc was already planning to hide the "murder" weapon before the murder even happened, doesn't really line up. Guy has a decent reason, he's using the stolen money to help prosecuted jews, he's not all bad, still a dick though.

would never allow one of His children to be falsely accused of such an evil crime, hence why Brother Piero cannot be executed. Therefore, logically, whichever person you accuse must have been the culprit, otherwise would have spared them like He did Piero. Quod erat demonstrandum.

This is a very good post Has anyone run into a bug where the choice menus don’t unfurl? When Andreas is picking between backgrounds or even when I’m picking between people to accuse, the menus with the descriptive text mostly don’t unroll. I don’t think this was happening on my firstplay through but I don’t remember.

I just finished this today. Pentiment is a real special game. I went in completely blind, so I was caught off guard by a lot of events. Even the first murder since I didn't know what type of game this was.

Oh man, finished this in 25 hours or so, GOTY and probably the best narrative game I've played. It just kept getting better. I knew it was going to be something very special when you were given the choice to argue about Martin Luther woth the abbot. The only thing I found a little weird / not that great was (ending of act 3) the fact that you find out who the Thread-Puller was. I understand why, but up to that point you didn't know anything for sure and the Christmas party centered around the idea of life going on no matter what, so then having a definitive answer and the past coming back in form of Anders felt like it went against the rest of the game. Also figured out that (ending of act 1)Ferenc was most likely innocent exactly because of the blood on the rod you find in the grave. The object fits the shape of the object which was used in the murder, but where the blood is doesn't. If it was the Baron's blood, it should have been on the tip of the rod, not where it actually is. And if Ferenc had washed the blood off, surely he would have washed it all off.

I knew it was going to be something very special when you were given the choice to argue about Martin Luther woth the abbot. Finding out who the thread puller is isn’t really against the spirit of the game. The theme of the game isn’t “you don’t know anything for sure” it’s “historical truth is a dialogue, and knowing the literal truth doesn’t change that fact”. Yes, you now know the truth behind Mars and Saint Moritz and the Thread Puller but it now falls to you to assign meaning to those things. And then whoever receives that information from you will in turn impose meaning upon it and so on and so forth, truth filtering and evolving through perspective and material/emotional needs, forever. That’s the whole point of the mural project and the Christmas party recollections by the villagers. They all experienced the same literal truth but understood it and were shaped by it differently.
