Yeah, my initial Harry was sorry boring centrist cop who stayed sober as penance. Totally possible and the crew at the end congratulates you on it, iirc.

Lol yeah. DE is one of those bits of media that people will look back on as a culture-bearer for the late 2010s (the terminally-online culture of the time, anyway)

DE believes you are a life-long fuckup with a couple of hyper-competencies. If it doesn't speak to you, then you're probably doing okay.

Yeah one of the ongoing themes in DE is that you are a fuckup who is meant to keep on loving up until he gets his poo poo together as he solves the case (or, alternatively, actively blow his poo poo apart and become even more of a gently caress up as he solves the case). It's expected for you to roll with your failures. Save often if you have low health or low morale builds because there's some bullshit that will kill you and end the game (one of its flaws), but it's a better experience if you don't quickload outside of a game-ending fail state. There's almost always another path, and it's specifically one that you might not have found if you'd rolled a successful check.

My most controversial opinion: game is better without any voice acting

Josh sawyer (new Vegas, pillars of eternity, pentiment) saw his name dropped in the video in the context of accusations of kurvitz discussing the ip with him and is basically going “What the gently caress??”

I mean, the game does sometimes make you feel like you're in the middle of a Twitter fight/D&D posting screed where it's hard to tell who's serious and who's posting through layers of irony.

Yeah, it's definitely (and ironically) the weakest part of the game. I was disappointed when I found out that the killer never changes.
