Trickortreat posted:Any tips for making rent? I was able to con my way to getting the 130, but with how tedious it is to collect cans, I don't think I am in for a good time if I have to collect 20 monies every day. I am assuming either money will become a lot easier to get or I will be able to find another place to stay somehow? Stressing out about being able to make rent is not my idea of a fun time. the minimum number of times you have to pay rent is 2

you need to have some level of ambient social support in order to be a starving artist, like the novelty dicemaker with her radio milieus and well-off patrons. cuno is poor and has artistic impulses (the night city) but he's unlikely to find the free time and peace of mind needed to get really good at making architectural models out of card stock or whatever

Verviticus posted:they dont have to quit their job but if they arent compelled to speak out at risk to their job or quit it then it seems less likely that they are capable of the nuance required to produce a piece of art thats thematically resonant with the original game people are just noticing toys left out on the carpet and reprimanding their owners

MariusLecter posted:Just got this game, hear nothing but non spoiler praise and seen only memes like the "Officer, do monsters actually taste good?" and such. Read OP and tomorrow I'm gonna get some coffee in the morning and run around with high Logic and Encyclopedia and balance out anything else i can EXCEPT verbal skills, will power and physicality. you're in for a treat, and there's basically no way to gently caress up

Gaius Marius posted:It was boring, and its aspect of "Reinforcing the plot" is totally negated by the fact that it was boring as poo poo and mindbogglingly stupid. Hopelessness and despair are meme emotions, and trying to prey upon those to reinforce your bullshit metaphysics is just sad. We already have to deal with legions of sad lads mad that their revolutions failed and their lives are totally controlled by reminiscence and substance abuse. The Pale adds nothing to the game, it's set dressing of the worst kind, the kind that obscures the actual interesting parts of the game, the characters and dialogue, in favor of rambling nonsense about radio waves, history, and italicized art. it's a climate change metaphor

i am a moron posted:I feel like that’s fair. I also feel like complaining about how this is capitalisms problem when the systems it’s being compared against specifically eschew this kind of ownership at all is a weird take. with, for example, universal basic income or public arts funding it would be way easier to get a product like this off the ground or continue to make new games in the world, instead they had to get sponsorship from a nationalist psychopath who now owns their ideas

UnknownMercenary posted:To be honest the doc left me with more answers than questions. It sure sounds like the Final Cut was basically forced on the studio by investors, and then Kurvitz was sidelined while the studio was restructured around him along with the financial fuckery. and THAT's why the shiver's voice actor didn't know the melody to "where the hood at"

whydirt posted:Hot Take: the “nice person representing a bad system” of Joyce vs the “lovely people repping a good system” Claires is a false dichotomy manufactured by the devs and is one of the weaker parts of DE eh, it’s a dynamic that fritz fanon wrote about. colonizers can afford to appear morally upright at a much lower relative cost than the people they subjugate, and the colonized have incentive to reject the culture of the colonizers wholesale, including their moral system
