Wicked Them Beats: Apr 1, 2007; Moralists don't really *have* beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded.

Can't you just pass time on bench? Or is this because you can't get rid of Kim if you don't have a place to stay?

The clock stops at 2 AM and the only way to advance it to the next morning is to go to bed.

Which skills will give me some kind of high level knowledge of what's REALLY going on in the world?
Like how do I gain an understanding of the political stuff, the pale or spiritual realm. How do I get into the deep political and philosophical debates?

Also on a more general level, is there a way for me to a competent cop who gets his poo poo together and goes through a redemption arc? Mostly I just want to be like "I know what's really going on and you can't fool me"

If you want lots of useless background trivia about the world and how it functions/is organized, then go with a high encyclopedia skill. But generally speaking this isn't Planescape: Torment and you aren't going to get locked out of crucial information because you didn't max wisdom at character generation. In fact, each stat has an associated skill that deals with perception or painting a wider picture of the world around you and you can't max them all.

If you want to play someone semi-competent, then you can just set all your stats to 3 and choose all the boring dialogue options. Be the Boring Cop.

I like new Cuno. Doesn't sound any better or worse to me, just a little different.

There's apparently a bug on PS4 that prevents you from getting your badge back

How big of a deal is that?

I'd wait for a fix unless you're sure you're going to do another playthrough soon.

By playing this game, you agree to the following conditions:
1. You are now a communist.
2. That is all.

Countdown to someone declaring that they don't think politics mattered at all to the story.

Definitely sounds like a bug. Everything has been voiced for me.

Rope Kid is playing DE right now. Well, more accurately he's drinking and rambling about game design while occasionally clicking a dialogue choice.

CohhCarnage is a streamer. You might recognize him as the guy who played a street preacher in Cyberpunk.
