One minor theory I've got about the game is that skills basically like or dislike people based on their score in that specific skill. Authority loves Kim explicitly because Kim's Authority is wildly high, Esprit de Corps loves Kim because Kim would take a bullet for you simply because you're a fellow cop, reds appreciate reds, yellows appreciate yellows, blues appreciate blues, etc. Which might explain why Volition alone despises Klaasje- she's got phenomenal skills in all other areas and absolutely no urge to be a good person.

Currently going 4/2/2/4 with Conceptualization as my tag skill, already got Superstar and planning on grabbing Art Cop as well. Drama comes in really handy for navigating conversations in a way that makes you seem like you've got your poo poo together, specifically when dealing with Evrart.

Is there a benefit to confirming your name with Evrart ahead of doing anything else? Does it change the precinct call at all?

There are some cut clothing items still sitting in the game files that can only be obtained through save editing, which is a shame as they're both pretty good and also end up completing outfits that are otherwise only partial, such as the RCM uniform and the white suit.

They clearly aren't accounted for by the game though, as I spent all of day 1 wearing a pair of shoes that had been cut and Kim commented on it as if I hadn't found my other shoe :haw:

Is it possible to miss asking Klaasje if she made the call? I seem to have completely exhausted the conversation tree.

David Harbour would be a 100% fit for Harry. He's got experience with playing a depressed, out of touch failcop thanks to Stranger Things.

Every conversation/skill check opportunity should have a red half light - GODLY check you can do. IMO

My wife streamed a FYS/MOT playthrough with Half Light as her tag skill. It was... entertaining, to say the least.

Imagine a world where you had to verbally relay your tweet to an elderly woman in a repeater station, and she would read it back to you to confirm that's what you want her to read out to the rest of the world.

Y'know that might actually be better to a degree, as having their own bullshit parroted back to them might get a few people to reconsidahahahah. Nope, couldn't finish typing that with a straight face.

It says something about this game's writing that despite her being ideologically opposite to so many of my own personal views, I can't bring myself to hate Joyce. She's a selfish scumbag capitalist, but at least she isn't ashamed to admit it. And at the end of the day her desire to help solve the case and avoid needless bloodshed comes off as genuine.

How has nobody made an Agent Cooper version of the skill tree yet?

VISUAL CALCULUS [Easy: Success] - The monster appears to be much larger than expected. Without a gun, this could prove to be very unfortunate.

ELECTROCHEMISTRY - You've got Mega Demondrugs, chug 'em all down! Do a kegstand right on its back!

AUTHORITY [Medium: Failure] - Yes.

HALF LIGHT - GET THE TAIL. GET THE GODDAMN TAIL.

:allears: This really is the format that keeps on giving.

Kurvitz join BioWare and write the greatest Mass Effect ever

This is one hell of a monkey's paw given Bioware's track record, you know that right?

e: It's also the best shot we'll probably ever have at a non-human ME protagonist, so I'm conflicted.

Desperately looking forward to HDB recreating all the animation bugs from Andromeda.

Turns out the Jamrock Shuffle is just the broken waddling animation Andromeda was plagued with.

Mind you, "don't buy this game" is not the same thing as "don't play this game"...

It's what Kras Mazov would want.
