For me personally it was Brennan, whom I didn't identify until I was at the process of elimination stage. Very embarrassing. I, too, cup my hand to my ear when someone in the next room calls my name. tonberrytoby posted:I get more annoyed at the people who see that the tatooed guy was torn apart, hear that the bosun's mate was torn apart and decide that they must be the same person. Especially when they start loudly arguing with them self about if french people wear "celtic" tribal tattoos. Once they figure out they are wrong, they decide he clearly was Scottish. That guy seems to be the one that requires the greatest level of knowedge/assumption of information that is not given to you by the game directly. I kept looking for another in-game clue to back up my assumption. That guy and, I guess, knowing what a German accent is supposed to sound like.

luxury handset posted:honestly i think the biggest problem with the chinese topmen is there are six of them, where the indian seamen get narrowed down quickly due to illness, there's only three russians, and most other ethnic groups are either too broad to be reliably identified like the anglos, or are one offs like the dane, the swede, the new guinean, the two germans who are identified by specific jobs, etc. but when you're trying to untangle the topmen there's six guys so good luck with that Look at their feet while they're sleeping.

I will say that the hammock numbers felt a bit cheap. You spend most of the game looking for little clues here and there, and then the same type of clue is used to crack open a big chunk of the names. Also it's a little immersion-breaking. Like everyone just has a convenient number on their hammock that matches their number in the crew manifest? That doesn't exactly feel like something you'd see on a real 19th century ship, why can't my game about a magic time-travel compass be more historically accurate?
