This game was a 10/10 and anyone who says otherwise without giving a good reason muh gommunism isn't a good enough reaon is a disgusting fucking shitposter.

I'm loving it so much so far. Best game I got to play in a long time, I'm gonna get the fuck out of here now because I'm doing a completely blind playthrough.

I don't care what anyone says, this was a great game that I will remember for a long time.

I'll be starting my Hardcore playthrough next to try and see all the things I missed. I failed lots of checks and didn't savescum, as well as left several side quests unfinished because I didn't know what to do with them with my skill set. Let's see if I can prevent Ruby from shooting herself this time.

No, he was awful. Awful sense of humour too. The worst jokes you've ever heard. Really rapey. Still -- he'd been on it for *months* now. Said it was THE FINAL CASE. Said it was UNCRACKABLE. That the murderer vanished into THIN AIR. That goddamn hookah parlour was all he talked about.

>This game
Wrong. It isn't even a game.

Why isn't it a game?

It falls apart on repeat playthroughs qhen you realize just how little you can deviate the narrative. That sort of calls into question all the gameplay mechanics, conceptually, since they're sort of made around the idea of having a personalized experience. At least, it does for me.
Still a good experience initially, but I don't think it holds up well under scrutiny as a game.

Ending was unexpected, literally. I thought i'm going to final arc, but it's just a logo and no achievement at all. Time to replay.

It's a detective adventure game with very light role-playing. Path finding is in the form of exploring the environment and dialogue trees. You can't progress if you don't investigate and explore, and you certainly can't progress the way you'd like if you don't think about what choices you're making in the dialogue.

As an RPG, it doesn't really break ground. You can't transform the story in any major way, only small threads can be altered. That said, it's one of the best written games overall. The story and skill system work extremely well, and kudos to them for making a game that at least makes you feel like you're role-playing that entails zero combat.

Only part I actively disliked was the wanna be meth manufactures and the church bit. Was only point where I knew they were going to be written as simple misguided youths and easily rehabilitated with a fetch quest so I went along to not get locked out of content. And I was right.

In a game steeped in cynicism it opts for the most naive depiction of people who push drugs. I’ve spent too much time around people like that, including the girl who’s in love and stopped taking care of herself to point of dangerous neglect.

Meth would absolutely devastate that town further. And they want to do that a stones throw from a house with children. Actual solution would be talk to Titus, let community police, and stand by while kids get boxed for even *thinking* about manufacturing meth. Sorry for blog post but in retrospect, it’s just stupid writing in an otherwise smart game.

Didn’t mean to @ anyone sorry. I’m phone posting and tired

I liked the anodic music guys, but I 100% agree. I was expecting far more debauchery. They didn't push the envelope nearly enough.

i never really minded games that have more or less the same ending but allow a nice variety of decisions along the way. those first two walking dead seasons were great, but in the first you couldn't change your outcome at all.

i would like a little more freedom but i don't mind it so much

First 3 days are fun but after that the game runs out of content and you are wasting time running around doing almost nothing until the standoff happens.

cope

I played through as a smart detective and I am having trouble doing a second run as another build bc I just feel like I’m just excluded from anything meaningful investigation, not seeing anything new. Shivers is great though.

I loved it, but I'd probably give it a higher score if I felt like everything regarding your choices with the union and Wild Pines conflict culminated in something more with the ending.

>tfw you miss almost everything people said they loved the game for
Its a shame because while I had fun with it, I tried playing it again but I ended up spam clicking through old diolouge and getting bored. If ur gonna play it, choose the stupidest options, its much more fun that way. I played to cautiously with the boring thinker build.

youre late this time, retard

Isometric crpgs are for pretentious faggots

I don't know if I'd say they were all rehabilitated. In my run it was kind of blatant that they were only running the place drug-free because I didn't offer them an alternative to do otherwise, and that their idea for a club would probably crash and burn because it was in an already dead district and didn't have a chance of drawing anyone in without narcotic sales.

On top of that, Cuno's family isn't exactly a poster child for positive drug distribution.

If you don't invest in the purple and blue skills you are missing like half the game, the reds and yellows aren't nearly as important.

I just wrapped up the first day, anything I should know?

>game
That’s where you’re wrong bucko

i think you're taking things too seriously, discotranny

correct - "choose your adventure" VNs are hardly games.
