Hell yeah, got the necktie and statue poster. I'm surprised there isn't a thought cabinet poster.

The biggest reason to distrust Evrart's intentions is probably the most obvious one: pressuring outside cops to collect the signatures for him by withholding information about the gun. I usually do it anyway though (by faking the second signature) because who else is trying to help Martinaise? Maybe it really is going to be a community center and Evrart's taking the long view about indoctrinating the youth for his future plans or something.

Yeah my first run was heavy on Inland Empire / Esprit de Corps / Shivers and I feel like I accidentally found the best build in the game for me. Maybe not that impressive as I just picked skills that sounded interesting to me and further boosted the ones that said interesting things.

This is similar to my first playthrough though I also boosted electrochemistry a lot at first, before I realized it mostly drives Harry to be a terrible person. :(

Drama is the most underrated skill IMO. The "sire!" stuff is very fun, and it has the most ridiculous suggestions.

Bullshit. I played a hardcore commie cop through twice and I never got let into the union!

Well they're more like democratic socialists anyway according to my sniff test.

It's a common misconception and one that feels like it'd be a solution considering how the game usually is. Does make me wonder if it was going to be one, but got half-written out.

The only uses IIRC are A) Show it to Measurehead and have him laugh at you. B) Pawn it (which seems... like a bad thing for a pawnbroker to accept.)

Well given the other things he's bought and sold and who he's sold them to, he's a pretty bad pawnbroker. Nice guy though!

solid A-tier effort there

but because I like the topic: the RCM isn't "police" though, it's a rather unique (and appropriately rather fantastic) social institution

People treat them like police. Cool people call you names like pig. You come from a "bad" precinct where two murders means you're one of the lighthanded ones. Maybe they aren't as bad as the worst real life cops, but they're definitely still cops.

"I'm sure your TV series is going to be just fine, Harry. It's not like you sold it to Jeff Bezos. You didn't bargain away your adaptation rights to an infamous union-busting megacorporation owned by a manchild. A dead eyed producer isn't tearing pages out of your manuscript and replacing them with glib co-marketing tie-ins with Legolas and Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan right now."

I've flipped on the TV show and now want it to be a big success and for the store splash screen and title screen to get the paperback-tie-in treatment and get replaced with a medium shot of Channing Tatum and Lance Reddick as Harry and Kim looking intensely into the camera.

Garte made me capital's bitch, but he gives the union special privileges and indirectly supports the production of their shady brew. His corruption makes him palatable.

Hey now. Ruud might be a monster, but Trant is a friend.

I value Trant for giving me the idea that turns trivia into unlimited personal growth (the biggest power fantasy in DE) and I respect him for involving a small child in a police operation under the pretense of the world's most depressing single dad outing.

If The Pigs shot someone with your gun before you find her (like that dead guy at the pier), do you think Kim would flip on you and turn you in?

I get why they didn't get silly with it, but I could have used a little more drug variety. I need more than speed and cigarettes to properly get my bad lieutenant on, you know?

Harry can't just abandon Jean and shack up with the new boy. That's a sure way to lead to Our Flag Means Death-style shenanigans.

The first time I played I was wondering if the game was some kind of sly image board fash trolling while going through the docks stuff. Measurehead and Evrart still stick out to me as basically weird cartoons compared to everyone else in the game. I was kinda up-and-down on DE until after you get over the bridge. Everything from waiting for the car to emerge to the end of the game was aces.
