I don't know why the "single-player" part of this game's summary didn't stick in my mind, I literally thought it was multiplayer instead. gently caress it, I'm in. I'm looking for something with an intriguing and compelling story/mystery to sink my teeth into after BD2 was a disappointment story-wise. Does this game go in weird and unexpected places, have lots of twists 'n turns, etc.? That's the kinda poo poo I'm looking for.

What exactly should I be using the end-of-day visits for? Aside from being able to level, I can kinda just go say hi to someone and that’s about it.

Hmm, got it. I definitely picked up on getting skills, at least. It seems like sometimes attacking someone as a Gnosia doesn’t work, and it just says “no one was attacked last night”. Why does that happen? So I have to choose the same target as the other Gnosia?

I think I’m too stupid for this game. 99% of the time I have no real idea who could possibly be good or bad, especially with no clues to work off of. I’ve done multiple games now where I get ganged up on by two Gnosia and an AC picking off the rest of the party without me being able to tell who’s who. This feels extremely random. Is there a way to tell what the gently caress is going on?

Okay then, how about this. Game began, Comet accused Remnan and like literally everyone defended him, then like four people agreed that Comet was sus, then Comet accused Sha-Ming, the same thing happened, then Comet got like This was the beginning of the game. We didn’t even have time for anyone to lie. Way I see it, everyone ganging up on Comet is more suspicious than Comet’s accusations. What the gently caress happened?

Comet not only was human, but correctly identified Remnan as a Bug.

Dirk the Average posted:Another thing that helps a lot is to play as Gnosia and to remove the AC and Bug. This way you know exactly who is on what team and can start learning how everyone behaves. Doing this for 10 or so games will really get you into the flow of how different people act, and a lot of the events require you to be Gnosia anyway, so it's not like you're not advancing the story by doing so. Thanks, I’ll try that out. 5 people, me Gnosia, Eng+Doctor. I’ve picked up on a couple things: Raqio and Setsu can immediately tell when someone’s lying about claiming a role, cause they always put down definite human when they come forward. That’s good to know, means I can’t claim a role as Gnosia when they’re in game. Not sure what else to watch out for. I’m really only seeing the typical group dynamics, not much else that’s unique to characters.

Oh. Hm. I’m learning nothing, then.

Also wow 5/1 as Gnosia is real fuckin hard. I’ve lost more on this setup than anything else.

I won a 15/3 as Crew with everyone enabled and I have no idea now. Yuriko carried my rear end.HenryEx posted:You're not supposed to play as Gnosia to level up. You're supposed to play as AC follower, because that's the "hardest" role to succeed in and thus gives the most exp. I’m following this post: Dirk the Average posted:Another thing that helps a lot is to play as Gnosia and to remove the AC and Bug.

Cause I think it’s kinda pointless to thoroughly learn characters aside from Comet being bad at lying, Shigemichi always claiming to be a role he’s not, and Kukrushka and Yuriko amassing a meat shield of followers. Most of the game takes place by figuring out who’s sympathetic to who, and then using the Engineer/Doctor reports to figure out which roles are fake, then correlating that with voting records and discussions.

Okay, well, lemme think a little bit. Gnosia are more likely to Doubt, Cover, etc. unpromoted since they don’t have to worry about getting killed for voicing an opinion or pissing off the wrong people. They’ll also defend each other, unless they’re Sha-Ming I guess. If you’re Gnosia, is it better to immediately claim a role to muddy the waters from the start, or wait until someone brings it up? Also, should I always waste the real Eng/Doctor if possible? And if so, does that mean if I see this happen, the surviving role is fake? Edit: Also also, is there any downside to immediately Doubting the fake role of someone claims it but you’re the real one?

Good to know, I’ll use this stuff later on. Something I learned about Yuriko is that she never claims to be human, even if she isn’t Gnosia or a Bug. So that at least is unreliable for her.

I just saw Yuriko answer that she was “human, unfortunately“ so gently caress me I guess.

I’m 120 loops in and I’m nowhere near finished. how am I so bad at this

Is there a way to track which events you’ve seen?

Well, 153 loops in, I finally got some sort of ending. I’m sure there’s more endings to find, and I’m unsure whether I want to try and figure them out on my own or look up a first step. But this was good! Even though I’m total crap at this type of game. Ending spoilers: I suspect the fact that you can pan left and right at the title screen will be important.

Yup goooooooot it! My dumb rear end figured “oh, I bet I have to name myself Setsu ” and that’s how I found the lead. Ending spoilers: That makes sense, though it’s a little hard to specify the exact thing you need to do - the natural reaction to the ending is “what no Setsu come back” and the most straightforward way is to load up the game again, set the game rules up properly, and try to make something different happen. But that just does the ending again, so you try a new loop and talking to Setsu, and that doesn’t do anything either. So you’re like, the gently caress am I supposed to do now? I’ll keep this light on spoilers, but I think the simplest way to sum up what you need to do to find the second ending is “Follow Setsu”. What would have helped the game devs get players to find the second ending is emphasizing that - cause you need some sort of lead to bite. The idea that Setsu’s key still needs to discover something plays into it, but there’s no clue what the key is missing or that you even can fill it. And the way you do is impossible to see coming. More signposting would have helped. And I’m done! Really good game!!!! Pollyanna fucked around with this message at 00:09 on Apr 10, 2021 |
