Yeah, but it feels like you get way more out of Shivers for the flavor text (and at 4 you basically get flavor text all the time). I just got a couple of ridiculously high Shivers prompts but it feels like they're just locking away "weird" paths to problems that also have conventional solutions?
Also, I can't believe I lost my best hat because you get a situation where
you either give away the hat you're currently wearing on the spot with no chance to change it, or feel like a dick
By prompts I mean the stuff that comes up automatically in conversations not white/red checks.
This is the first game I've played where I really want to read the associated novel lol. I want to experience more of this world.
I really do hope the devs get enough money from this to fund a sequel. I read an interview a few days ago where they mentioned considering a sequel with the protagonist as a 5-months pregnant woman, which would be bananas.

Oh, those.
I don't even remember failing any Shivers checks until I was in the bookstore looking at world maps and stuff. Again, you get a ton of Shivers content at 4.
Also, Volition just had its superstar moment when
Volition calls out every other skill for their sudden lapses in judgment. And this little episode makes even Volition crack up and get paranoid, briefly.
What a perfect realization of what is possible with these game mechanics.
Pretty sure you only see very few failed automatic ones, normally you just don't get the ones you miss the difficulty fore. I'm running 0 logic/rhetoric/drama/conceptualization and I pretty much get zero content from them. Shivers gets more.. relevant at higher levels as well.
Up to about 12:00 on the 2nd day and I'm currently sitting at 11 hours played. Really enjoying just taking my time with every interaction and dialogue sequence.
Also just reached a point where a side investigation crossed paths with the main investigation and that was a really great moment.

Soooo I'm at like midnight of day 2 and I don't have enough cash to pay for my room, nothing else I want to pawn, and Frittte is closed. How do I sleep?
I already did the hubcaps thing on my first night, what path do I go down now?
The bench says 'you can sit here when kim's gone' but he won't leave unless I go in my room, and I can't go in my room because it's locked, because I don't have the money.
Oh, I have no idea then. I never had the money issue myself.
Haven't played it but I totally see it, I gues it's the color palette and textures of the world, it's very much like Dishonored
I think 4 points is the sweet spot for a lot of skills, at least early on. Makes it so you can pass a check of difficulty 10 over 50% of the time.
As far as I can tell from looking around, not having 20 réal by the second night seems to be a bit of a softlock for now. At that point your only options are to sell stuff, run around looking for containers with cash or reload. They'll probably end up patching in an option to sleep on the bench or car with a penalty.
I feel pretty confident it'll come to touch devices and Mac. It won't work with gamepad, without substantial work (who knows, maybe they will) but it'll work pretty quickly with everything else.
Yes, that's what's supposed to happen, and the first night is scripted so that the debt and fee go away no matter what, but there's no failsafe for the second night and apparently no alternative options, which is made worse by the city being largely empty by the time people realize that.
EDIT: That said you can just edit the save file to have more money. We won't tell :P

I can but storage is a premium and I don't really have any use for Windows.
They should just give an option that lets you sleep outside without recovering health/morale.
Try Shadow for a month, if your internet connection is up to it.
I guess something else could possibly come along, but seems like this is a lock for best world building of 2019. Played it for an hour or two last night and am already immersed in a city and culture that is familiar and bizarre at the same time. I'm kind of in awe at how adept the game is at making completely alien things feel lived in. Deft writing and some of my favorite visuals this year (of all time? It's really pretty.) Couple questionable VO performances but otherwise, wow, this is a special game.
The plastic bag is brilliant. Just found it myself. It looks so awful, I love itAt least I look like a fairly decent cop now.
Your spoiler is broken I think
I've lost track of how it's done on here. Like this?
Edit yes lol.
I don't like the blur method
Im wondering how you would save enough to get the lightpost? I guess most is from picking up change? And wearing the Indirect Modes of Taxation shoes and using that skill?
pay 130 the first night but get both the money from kim then ask joyce? 30 from evret, 100 from rich guy, ~50 from bottles, 200 from around the world
If you saved up all the green spots until you got the skill, you could probably do it. Would probably have to wait till the end of the game.
I'm on the second day, I've been looking for a map, but I haven't found one :(
Can you buy it somewhere?
I believe they say to check that one last since it was just put out.
Ah you're right. Must have sped through that particular section a little too quickly. Thanks!
