Epic High Five posted:There was a long and excellent post earlier in this thread about portraits and ideologies if someone could find it and re-post it here, but yeah generally speaking you can tell the nature of a character by how they're portrayed there I was wondering if each NPC in the game exemplified one of the skills. Couldn't put it all together in my head though. Not even sure if the numbers add up, must be more than 24 characters.

Oxxidation posted:you ever tried to catch a bus and arrive at the stop just as it’s pulling away, and you run after it until your breath is ragged in your throat, senselessly believing you can keep up with it until the next stop, until your legs give out and you just watch it drive further and further away I've done that but actually caught the bus, while carrying a small child. Tbf there was a lot of traffic.

nurmie posted:7 dead is not too bad, actually (especially if it includes all three mercs) - iirc the absolute best outcome is 6 dead total (3 mercs + 3 hardie boys). you can have less total deaths than that, but it involves leaving mercs alive and sacrificing hardie boys instead, so idk if that can count as a good outcome tbh Wait, what? I don't think I've ever not killed all three mercs

The best bit about Measurehead is him admitting that he's only ever heard about the Semenese Islands on the radio. Ok maybe not the best, but it is a highlight.

Been writing some new songs with my buddy for the first time in a few years. Turns out the secret to easy lyric writing is to just lift quotes from your favourite video game where they've already been written by someone more talented. Anyway stay tuned for our forthcoming EP "ice cop hat gently caress show"

Jimmy Noskill posted:To go back to Klassje-chat for a moment… That's actually quite a compelling theory, especially as she arrived in Martinaise at roughly the same time as the mercs (I think? Not certain on the timeline here.) Her proximity to Titus would have also been pretty useful to Wild Pines/Krenel if she was on their books. But isn't the radio operator merc the one who shows up for the tribunal (De Paule?) And if Klaasje worked with them, surely they'd have accepted the story about it not being a hanging (unless they wanted to use it as a pretext for escalating the conflict.) I suppose by then you'd already made the arrest and it was too late. Oops indeed.

This system existed as a tabletop thing before DE was made, right? Makes me wonder how the skills work for people who aren't cops. Esprit de Corps in particular feels very cop-specific, although I suppose all sorts of people have various groups that they're part of. It's definitely possible to see which characters run particularly high or low in certain skills. Also, if some of the side characters (the iconic duo of Torson and McClaine maybe) were the developers' characters. Maybe some of the referenced cases too.

Truly this game has everything The mega-questline around the church and the club and Fortress Accident and the Doomed Commercial Area and the 2mm hole in reality and the mysteries of the Spinal Cord and the Shivers/Revacholiere moment is probably my favourite part of the game. Just absolutely transcendent stuff. Like, the phasmid is cool and all, but the stuff leading up to it with Morel's traps is just a lot of busy work. The church stuff is gold from start to finish. sebzilla fucked around with this message at 23:48 on Jun 7, 2022 |

midnight lasagna posted:I needed one of those on my first playthrough where I couldn't figure out how to leave his office and got stuck for 10 minutes. Evrart was probably laughing at me the entire time, and possibly recording the incident in secret for future use as blackmail against the RCM. I would say maybe your amnesia made you forget the concept of doors, but Harry has successfully navigated at least four by the time he reaches Evrart's container.

Yeah, first time through I didn't find it and didn't fridge the body either, just let Kim haul him off to processing. Being blindsided by the fact he was shot before he was hanged was pretty good too if you've only ever been a competent cop.

I read the Pale as (among other things) as sort of spiritual entropy that can only be resisted with powerful manifestations of hope. Whether that's sending ships into the unknown Pale with little more than the hope of finding new isolas, building a church around a 2mm hole in the world, the visceral thrill of surrendering to anodic dance music, or the hope for mankind that is Communism. Egghead gets it
