With low Inland Empire, however, you’ll be void of imagination – and character. And then how will you shape the cosmos?

I did Sorry Apocalypse Communist cop for my first run, so roleplaying as myself/Cspam Any recommendation for the next run as far as cool dialogue to read? After I beat DE a couple weeks ago I haven’t even enjoyed any other games, it was that good.

I once had a random hookup shortly after I left my ex-husband, which went wonderfully and I kept seeing the dude for a while cause we had a great Netflix-and-chill thing going. But I broke it off after one evening, he mentioned in passing some guy he'd been reading about with "some interesting ideas", and he couldn't even actually remember the name but it sounded like it had to be Jordan Peterson.

Got through day two by finally getting into the harbor and finally getting the body down- but I had to internalize race science to do it. Kim mentioned an alternate path that I couldn't find, and I'd actually exhausted most of the random dialogue in the area before adding racism to the thought cabinet which made me wonder if I was screwed...until I stumbled rear end-backwards into an extensive quest behind the bookseller's curtain just by poking around to kill time. Pretty wild for a completely optional area! The harbor seemed sparse though, I'm not sure if I missed a staircase or something but the only people I could find there were Evarts and Leo. It was also a little strange grilling so many people abour the murder after I'd already spoken to the Hardies who outright admitted to the murder that morning; probably hard to cover all the sequence breaking bases. Mostly I've just been vibing around as an apocalyptic drug-loving communist and it's been good times! I did also take the actual art degree which has been an unexpected boon, since I keep loving up and taking psychic damage everywhere.

Sounds like it's been a good time. Just soaking in the feeling of the world and the situation is a lot of the joy of the game to me. If you need to pass time, you can try reading and rereading a book. It's not super efficient but functional. The harbour is pretty sparse, there's some handy pick-ups though. (Carry a crowbar in your hand to open most grey outline containers.) You might have missed something minor up and left of the way in. Optional though, most of the game is optional. In case you missed it, if you see someone up on a balcony over the apartments. Minor mechanical tip. You can talk to them from the ground floor. But not the person on top of Whirling in Rigs.

Spuriously accusing everyone you meet of the murder is just good dectectoring technique.

Okay I really should have figured out who the driver of the crashed car was way sooner Starting to think I'm as bad a detective in life as I am in the game I'm also not sure why I'm so fixated on hunting down all the armor pieces, I have a 2 in endurance and can't do anything physical for poo poo

The armor projects strength and authority, which is why it appeals to law enforcement officers/fascist paramilitaries. Having a chest piece that stops bullets might come in handy at some point too, Revachol is a dangerous place...

Met the hardcore teens, enjoyed accidentally vibing with Egghead Also had a sensible chuckle that the cryptozoologist is palling around with the cryptofascist (I know that fucker has an armor piece but my stats were too low to call him on it ) I also keep finding new neckwear but I will never abandon the horrible necktie

I got those kids kicked out so hard it messed up some other questline stuff they're connected to because Lieutenant Harrier DuBois is here to solve a crime and it doesn't involve the pale and he has no idea what that is, anyway.

The car is probably the best example, but one of the strengths of DE's writing is how it effortlessly slips between treating the player as actually being Harry versus treating the player as merely attempting (with mixed success) to pilot him. It's hard to give the player immersion and agency while also acknowledging their genre knowledge and not treating them like an idiot. DE threads the needle perfectly.
