Day 12 after ReleaseIn which the last Pathologic thread is made, and actors say their farewells.
0 amalgalm anon reporting back inas it turns out the vaccine doesn't travel in time with youbut I manage to scrap enough from mirrors to travel to day 3, the cathedral is open but I used it beforegonna keep grinding day by day until I'm back at day 10 or can use the vaccine
Why did she do it bros
>>731361726smowd it for her
>>731363289is it day 3 or 4 where you make the promise to yuliya? because you get +100 amalgam just for talking to her immediately after resetting it, you don't even need to go to town hall to complete it
>>731357607i mean suzerain is fine, but i have no idea why the fuck would anyone compare it with pathologic, they have literally nothing in commonwriting is acceptable, but you do not play it for cool plot or original characters, but to make choices about running your state, just in more CYOA fashion than in paradox games for example
>>731363289Is this what they call ludo kino?
>>731363517I forgot about that, I'll try to replay this quest again>>731363886kinda, I can imagine Baka Dankovsky getting stuck inbetween days, funny to think that they essentially made a game about savescumming
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EFmteoU7Zr0
how do i get enough amalgam in the late game when i need to be constantly hopping across the timeline?
Why didn't they keep the impostress's blue hair?
>>731365220That's the neat part, you don't. You get one free refill if you still have Rubin's vaccine, other than that you can euthanize people in infected districts I guess.
>>731365220some quests give amalgalm for completion, I guess you can abuse that but first you have to know which quests are liek that
>>731365595I thought they only gave amalgam the first time
>>731363321>looks like my ex whom I dated when I was 26 and she was 19 while I was in universityI'm not getting over that little slut for the rest of my life, am I...
>>731365292you need to make your choices wisely dankovsky. i managed to save katerina saburova by burning through a lot of supplies, definitely worth it thou, how many times can you bargain with death. i really feel like i need to save vlad the younger ....
>>731365693nopeand when i was jumping around with only 2 vessels i noticed mirrors resetting like crazy so i think people just aren't holding Q
>>731364860This track really didnt fit during the Katerina surgery sceneFor me itshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zetU2rBSSJw
Is there any way to go back to day one? Kid at the top of the Polyhedron said something rather fucking important.
>>731365948yesHave you entered the study? Properly?
I watched hbomberguy and ruined this franchise for myself forever.
>>731367063>watching trannies
>>731366218>properlyI managed to enter once and I don't know under what condition. All that was in there was a lit ciggie.I don't know if grasping the essence mean I need a literal essence or some abstract knowledge or idea.
brb leaving a stinky murky here
>>731361726on day 3 can i convince the kain guys to accept yulia or will i have to use the time travel thingy?
mods need to ban these fags that dont use the spoiler brackets properly RETARDS MARK THE TEXT AND THEN PRESS CTRL S
>>731369014if you visit /v/ while you're mid-game ever you deserve to get spoiledi wasn't going to reply to this guy since it's been answered one thousand times but now i will in cleartext just for you>>731367365door only opens at the times shown on the dooryou need to enter for the first time on the 9th day at 9pmthen stand in the corner and look up, using the box and wood from Isidor's house
>>731368337>on day 3 can i convince the kain guys to accept yuliaWhy would you want to? Yulia is a fraud, and exile is too light a sentence for her crimes.
>>731369278sorry r*dditor we are raising the standards in 2k29-3
>>731365292I think that cover art is still the best example of 'wtf were they thinking?' in that context I can think of, unless dybowksi is literally a pedophile
>>731369278>door only opens at the times shown on the doorI think that's bullshit - I got in on Day II and Day IX after midnight
>>731369397I found it hilarious that you only get Anna's version of the pop-up window that introduces each character on Day XII, essentially during the epilogue
>>731369397>Yulia is a fraudHow so? The only reason her shit didn't work is because the Kaines undermined her by refusing to tell her about the tunnels. They probably only want her gone because she's a witness to their selfish faggotry having consequences that are their own fault, like everything else wrong with the town.>>731369605Yeah I just went in randomly on day 2 so I don't know if there's other rules (more likely just bugs), but that's definitely how it's meant to work. The important thing is it does in fact open at 9 on the 9th.
>>731369708I think got it earlier? Are you sure you have done her quests?
>>731369397Did any character get a more brvtal downgrade in the remakes than Anna? What the fuck were they thinking.
I just hit day 12 and I forgot to do day 1 again when it unlocked kek, does the order you do the days matters at all?
>>731365784No.
>>731369937Microscopic Vlad imo - he's barely in 3 and his only appearances are to completely fuck up and then become a brainless simp for the rest of the game, if I were Vladiana Grande I would have killed myself
>>731369397>fraudthe k*ins omitted a very crucial piece of information about the town when comissioning the fucking street, how is it her fault
>>731369935I did the one about Burakh and the missing kids where she's the suspect, and the crude sprawl house burning - I don't think there's anything else? But yeah, that intro screen only actually triggered the last time I spoke with her on Day XII
>>731369862>>731370090>how is it her faultFor listening to the Kains Utopian bullshit in the first place.ALL KAINS MUST HANG
can i get multiple endings on one save
w8, I cant save the bull when Eva is freed? Why?
Despite the dramatic differences in gameplay and Pathologic 2 feeling more immersive...I'm absolutely adoring Pathologic 3. I'm more captivated by the Bachelor's story than I thought I'd be. And the time travel mechanics seemed off-putting at first but are growing on me.I'm about 14 hours in and feel like this is still going to take quite awhile to finish. Sad there most likely won't be anymore Pathologic threads for me to talk about the story by the time I finish it.Anyway, I'm currently on Day 2 and just entered Simon's study for the first time and know that I want to restart the day because Daniil just learned where Isidor's body can be examined before his funeral. I've been doing days a little out of order but haven't had anything happen yet to let me progress beyond Day 5. Is this one of those things where I just need to keep going and will finally trigger the next series of events? Or am I missing something important, possibly from Day 5?Or am I just uneducated not selecting Day 6 correctly?
>>731370081The Oglymskibergs are barely in 3, and that's fine, since why the hell would Daniil be concerned with them. That's a Burakh joint.
when I played P2 i came to hate the Kinnow that I'm playing P3 i have come to hate the townspeopleTruly there should be a "bomb the polyhedron AND the town AND the steppe" option
>Erm, yes Bachelor, you may have just outed me as a fanatical fraudster who has been attempting to play you since Day I while twirling my moustache, but I have something really important to show you, come downstairs behind this bookcase to Simon's Focus where we can talk in private....
>>731370393Sure thing. This is a canonical savescumming game, after all.>>731370450Girls that wear little black dresses don't care about anything.>Oh my GOD, Daniel, take care of your dog on your own!
>>731365349unless im missing something the euthanasia minigame is worse than useless, it's so random that half the time the patients just fucking die instantly from a small dose of morphine and the amalgam vessel breaks
>>731370591Georgia Kainani think's he's slick, but everyone's gangsta till I deepthroat my Derringer.
>>731370475>know that I want to restart the dayAs a rule of thumb, get used to restarting a day as often as needed before moving on to the next. Restarting doesn't cost amalgam, so you might as well do all the quests you can before moving on.>progress beyond Day 5Look at your decree board, day 5 onwards is blocked because the infection level got out of control. You need to flatten the line to unlock the next days., there are several ways to decrease infection.
>>731370393Yes, unless you do one very specific thing that the game warns you against.
I don't want to cuck Khan out of his spiritual revelation but I also don't want to hand over the kids to La Rata. can I just leave them in the polyhedron and come what may?
We taught Daniil gorkhon culture and he shot himself
>>731370945It's about time they learn responsibility for their actions, that's all I'll say on the matter.
>>731369937>Did any character get a more brvtal downgrade in the remakes than Anna?teensiespic not related because every screenshot of them on the internet has horrible lighting and I don't feel like booting up P1 to spend an hour hunting this fucking pumpkin cryptid
>>731370194BASED
>>731370685Yep, and you get the same amalgam for just breaking one of the many mirrors littered throughout the game with no risk. Or like 3x as much for talking to Eva.
>>731370685I don't really get whats the fucking problem retards like you are having with it, first to need that amalgam to begin with and second to not get by the second attempt that you need to fuck bandits up for lesser apathy drugs or just fucking stash the ones you find, literally no reason at all to ever give them morphine, funnily enough I only got fucked on the thanatica flashback because I used the fucking morphine
Suppose you were an average NPC in the town before the outbreak, without any meta knowledge or abilites.Which of the Town families do you follow? Would you be one of Maria's simps, or maybe another gear in the Olgimsky machine?
>>731371604I'd work for the Saburov regime on behalf of Oglymski so I can collect two paychecks and spend them on fucking herb brides because the arthoe sign I'm courting refuses to put out until I revalate or something like that. I won't live long anyway since I took a shmowder last outbreak.
>>731371256how many of them have you done?they aren't difficult but the time investment in farming shitty blue drugs vs just breaking a mirror makes them not worth it. and you will eventually get ones that have a massive health bar with a really narrow target window or some other fucky combo that you aren't equipped for unless you massively over-prep, so wasting the last few you did from a single failure and breaking vessels is inevitable. and you can't even save-scum them because even alt+f4ing still causes vessel damage. it's pointless compared to just going to the maw and holding Q.but you're correct that you should never use morphine. daniiiil has insane tolerance so they seem like a shitty drug but will in fact cause most patients to instantly explode
why do I have to redo the "talk with burakh" mission on day 2? Is there a detail about isidor's death I haven't found?I got>had the plague>his house was infected>died violently from a horn wound>oyun was there in the studio>he went to the steppe with albinos
>>731370512I just felt it was weird because Little Vlad has little to do with daddy's business, and as I recall he's one of the first major characters who actually gives any exposition to Bachelor in P1 and is basically doing detective shit to work out the secrets of the kin
>>731371968Are you trying to get the package or something?I think that conversation is bundled in with checking out Isidor's place.
>>731370564>>Misanthropy, Dankovsky?I'm pretty sure that's Clara's route. Join the cult and/or die.
>>731363320gravel lara ravelor the grave
>>731370564there is in 1 if you just fail to show up on time iirc
>>731371062fucking lol
>>731372127>Clara's route>have to convince Dankovsky to operate on your mom>he'll only do it if you lead the children out of the Polyhedron>threatens to kill himself if you don't stop healing people>gossip about him with Burakh
>>731370801Thanks, fren! It's good to know that I can restart the same day without using amalgam.I've been checking the decrees and even unlocked 1 or 2 new ones. Makes sense that the future is locked until the infection level goes down. That's all I needed to know. Sounds like I'm on the right track and will eventually get there.
>>731371968It's just one of the missions that reset no matter what when you restart a day.Don't think you're missing anything, but you get an achievement for one specific dialogue option with Burakh.
>>731371968I think once you actually find Isadors killer there's an option to tell him, but I haven't gotten there yet.
>>731372078I already did all that can be done in isidor's house (i think), got the package and all. im talking about the evening quest when you meet by burakh in the Skinners and tell him what you've found about isidor's murder
wish the coomer newgen fans would get out of these comfy threads. they never actually talk about the game
SOMEONE MAKE THE FIREWORKS STOP
>>731365883waiting till 2 am to hear this song and have the talks with Eva and the play outside felt like an irl apathy/mania equalizer for me. loved it
>>731361726I don't play r*ssian games because I'm a Decent Person
>>731372717fortunately they fixed that - it nearly drove me insane
>>731372883I was really disappointed by the plays in 3, they felt far less relevant than 2 and Clara's English VA is dogshit
>>731372978IPL is anti-zigger.
Any 3rd way to make the kids leave the polyhedron?I want Kaspar to grow
>>731372704wrongthe only reason I haven't finished the eva nude mod yet is because 50% of the posts in the last 4 threads have been ME
Simon is literally me frfr
>>731373271If you convinced him to leave his cage in Notkin's warehouse and go back to lead the kid's in the polyhedron, you can ask Nina Kaina to lead them to the train graveyard on Day XI and Kaspar admits afterwards that the polyhedron was the wrong place for them
>>731371812I believe we are saying the same thing, I don't get why you would be euthanasing plague carriers to begin with, just fucking break mirrors lol that said I have done 1 or 2 every day or whenever I stumble unto them while walking with the piss vision
>>731372704Are the coomers in the room with us right now?
>>731372704My brother in Christ, literally everywhere outside of here is infested with queers and you're complaining about the occasional titty post? Where are these rampant coomers you speak of? 9gag? Telegram? May I see them?
>>731373853erm, anon, you realise associating with the homo-sexual underground is a pre-requisite for enjoy Pathologic 3?
Remember being dehyped about the remake(s) when IPL posted these renders?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IInpESA31oE
>>731374352https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nlX5GZJqF0Y
>>731374201oh yeah. i still was and still am de-hyped by the soundtrack of 2 compared to 1. its obviously much more higher quality and well made, but just doesnt have the amazing vibe of the sample heavy amateurish sound of P1 and its genghis khan trip hop half life soundtrack.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jc-kuOLAtbs&list=PL2Ja2s2loWLJUI5ysyDnPvNG0SnHTxdNq&index=5https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IInpESA31oE&list=PL2Ja2s2loWLJUI5ysyDnPvNG0SnHTxdNq&index=7https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uibccvhRkV4&list=PL2Ja2s2loWLJUI5ysyDnPvNG0SnHTxdNq&index=17https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD5Q1x9jCcs&list=PL2Ja2s2loWLJUI5ysyDnPvNG0SnHTxdNq&index=18
>>731374201Good times.But to be fair they had an entire blogpost about why that specific render was afwul.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1535515364/pathologic/posts/1003850
They sprout from Mother Boddho herself... The golems of steppy legend...
for me, it is the miracle-seeker ending
Okay guys im on 11th day now, how close is the finish line.
>>731374170>>Participate in chill and interesting covo about Simeon in the evening.>>Return to site the following day. there is, I shit you not, a 8man troon self fellating goon session going on in the main on-topic discussion thread.
>>731376135emshen, it's ok to admit you want to have artemy show you the lines as he slams his bull cock down your throat
>>731375437most based ending.especially if you recruit Yulia, get Little Yakuv to escape and have the others still follow you despite seeing miracles now because you said Thanatica was a stillborn
>>731376676Like this sad case here.Can't ask them to leave, can't insult them because they've all got humilation fetishes, can't explain to them that their autism is being taken advantage of. Genuinely a sad affair. Where are these coomers again?
>>731377840UHHHHHHHH FUCK PETER SPIKE ME WITH YOUR MASSIVE 300M POLYHEDRON SPIKE, MAKE ME BURST MY UNDERGROUND RIVER LIKE ONE OF YOUR STEPPE GIRLS FUCK
>go back in time to bribe Bad Grief into not stealing army rations>game doesn't acknowledge it and the day 11 events play out the same way as alwaysis this bugged?
>>731377265how do you recruit yulia? and isn't little doomed to die of the plague?
>>731378063Slow sensual sex with Laura on her fathers desk, in the missionary position.
>>731378190on day 10 you find a note from grief saying he won't honor your deal
>>731378359Why would a player stop by day 10 when they only need to go to 9 and back to 11 for the quest? I'm not gonna waste a whole nother amalgam shard.
>>731378517because it's the worst designed quest in the game and symptomatic of the lack of polish on the last three days
>seeing Little's portrait in the thanatica hallbros...
>grief doesn't appear in isidors house on day 10, so I can't escape>Block doesn't appear in the town hall either, so I can't warn him of andrey stamatinGuess it's time to take a break until they fix the later days
>replaying P2>Notkin dies immediatelyIT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE KHAN DAMN IT
>>731378891I got that ending 5 minutes ago, until the end I didn't think I'd actually be able to leave.I'm going back to see the actual endgame tomorrow, but it still is a fitting ending for the Bachelor - screw the Kains and their castles made of dreams, screw this insane Town, I have a resonsability to Thanatica.I assume if you leave the Town without Little making the discovery, you get a worse variant of that ending, with Thanatica being shutdown.
>>731383636i like this face for bachelor here. always felt like he should have been a less handsome guy like this.
Is it even possible to save Oyun? I guess without letting Artemy die. I want to minimise deaths
>>731371062good post
>>731363320Grief.
>>731365220Rush an ending, any ending.
>Day 10>saving Eva, and tearing up at the choice of freeing her or not>talking to Georgy and getting angry irl at how dangerously lunatic the Kains areI can't remember the last time writing in vidya made me this emotional.I know it's a meme at this point, but IPL really should try making a VN or a dating sim, without all the pesky gameplay getting in the way.
>>731385823Yeah?
>>731386041Go fist your stuffing, you preening bitch.
>>731371604i'd plap eva all day
>>731385986>>saving Eva, and tearing up at the choice of freeing her or notI just went through the exact same thing. I take it back, Eva, you're not a whore. Please come back to the capital with me.
>>731376135i saw that too, went from genuinely interesting stuff to HRT pill support group in 2 hours
>>731388410What the fuck did you do to her? Did you give her the ick?
>>731386267 Find her on day 12 Anon. You'll see what she really is.
>>731388768Why is Simon such a fag?
>>731388454i would give her the lick
>>731388965>>731388965He's a metaphysical communist. He's going to communalize all time and consiousness. To disastrous results, seigneur.
>>731378709Where'd he stash the grub? I'm burning out, I just want to see agula before I take a break.
>>731373721He's hot. Love psycho russians
Is this game as much of a cock and ball torture session as the first two?I liked those games and would recommend them.
I'm on day 6, so here are my thoughts so farBachelor = mindHaruspex = bodyChangeling = soulIt makes sense to get rid of survival mechanics centered around bodily functions. Bachelor is so goal driven, he does not consciously experience exhaustion. Suicide is death of the ego, not death of the body. Bachelor experiences the town through fragments, he cares little for the hobo economy or breaking into homes. The lighting in dialogue is shittier because you're experiencing the world through vague recollections rather than reality."Any choice is right as long as it's willed" is Haruspex's worldview, not Bachelor. Savescumming and trying to achieve the perfect outcome fits his agenda.
>>731391437it's a visual novel
>go to slip a nut in Maria's bed>she apparently sleeps on a sofa by the windowCrazy bitch.
>>731391491>>Here's your (You)Can I offer some advice? Let go of the video essayist mindset. Yes, that trinity was a theme they were going for. Most long term fans of the series trust IPL to put at least that much thought into the writing, and will pick up on it.
>>731393075IPL was right about making engineers, artists, and architects completely insufferable.
>>731394860>architects100% true and this is why I threw my architecture degree in the toilet as soon as I was done, the entire field is fueled by pure fart huffium>engineersare those really in the game?0% true in my experience, they just want to sit in the corner and engineer things>artiststhat's like 50% true but the 50% are so fucking bad it's like a million percent from the outsidethe other half hate the first half so much they won't even identify themselves as artists
>>731374201
>>731397464supposedly Maria
For me it's Capella
>>731391491>The lighting in dialogue is shittier because you're experiencing the world through vague recollections rather than reality.How can it be explained then that the world is better-looking than P2? Following your argument one would say the game should be uglier since for Bachelor the city is hostile to him.Every bad aspect of every game can be excused with statements such as these.
>>731400086to be honest that part is a stretch. Another theory is that Bachelor's interrogator is shining a light on him. Otherwise there's no explanation as for why IPL didn't just simply reuse assets since that's cheaper and easier.
>thought Yakuv was a patsy>no, he was a genuine man who wanted to help and had more WILL to do things right than DaniilI'm sorry...
How long till someone updates the wiki with all of the quests from P3?
>>731396580I finished a "social sciences" focused highschool (best way I can describe it).I had a bunch of future architects, artists, actors and so on and they're 99% BPD addict sluts full of themselves.Not me though, I ended up studying philosophy and ended up broke and depressed
>>731400927His story gets even sadder if you talk about him with the Rat Prophet...
So... I need to correctly diagnose more patients to get the egg, anything else fails the operation?
>>731403082never, unless we'll do it ourselves anon
>>731406904I don't see a scalpel. Did you convince Rubin and Artemy to help you?
>>731365292
>>731407772Yeah, I now noticed that I have the hospital item, I didn't take Rubin because I thought he would screw up because of today's incident with Lara.
>>731407905kek
>>731361726So how does it fare compared to 1 or 2
>>731409630better storywise than 2, but worse gameplaywise
>>731405809How so? I already finished the game, not going to replay for a while
>play as Haruspex >bachelor feels like an incompetent asshole that barely helped at all>plays as bachelor>Haruspex still managed to find the blood river on his own and developed the cureWhy is thatAlso wonder if my opinion on Changeling will change cause after two games she is still an annoying gremlin
>>731412779>teleports behind you to nag about things she's said 20 times already
>>731412779>on his ownDoesn't he find out about it only as consequence of the Bachelor giving him the blood sample from underneath the Polyhedron?
>>731412779Surgeons mog gen-med fags IRL too. >b-but I'm a death specialist!That's basically all medicine
>>731411793If you agree to take the Rat Prophet with you inside the Polyhedron on day 12 he'll be able to alter some events for you. One of the things you can ask him is to be able to save Little. He will refuse explaining that years prior to the events of the game Little had already made a deal with him, in exchange for a book. He literally sold his soul to the devil so he could study.
should i make sure i've killed the shabnak on every day? i've already gotten the plague down enough to survive until the end
>>731414009Do it.
>>731412779Because in P3 you help Burakh a lot, but in P2 Burakh's life needed to be as miserable as possible
>>731411730>gameplaywiseWhat's worse? I've seen some issues but they cannot be all that big.
>>731415958Not that anon. The gameplay is completely different from 2, it's dumb to compare them by saying one is worse.Survival mechanics are gone, now it's more like a detective game.
how is the shabnak twin thing supposed to work? the one that i lure into the fire is ALWAYS the fake one, so is the real one supposed to spawn in once you've trapped the fake one? it only stays there for like 5 seconds though
>>731370591>got beaten down at the hole>reload>immediately get KAINED[/spoiled]I lel'd. They sealed the fate of their stupid tower with that stunt.
>>731416386>talk to someone>they casually insult you>come up with an epic Livy reference>they don't understand it and insult you again>p-plebIt's a seething simulator.
>>731416814you're just unlucky
Is Karminsly not on the cathedral on day 8? The day he summons you to grill on in Isidors notes? A guard told me he wanted to speak to me in the evening and hes not there.
>>731415958>>731416386Nah, first anon is correct, gameplay is worse but not because it's different but because it's not as polished/ balanced yet.Hopefully we get more extensive support to fix most of the issues and improve the flow of the game.
>>731361726I need help, I've seen Stamatin burn some papers in his bathtub on day 3 and now i need them to make him go free. is there a specific trigger or quest that i need to cross out in the mindmap or can i just move straight to day 2 or 3 and find them?
>>731417375Do you want the answer or just a hint
i am too retarded for the euthanasia mini game
>>731417623i will look for them myself, just tell me the day and if i need to fidget with the thought map. i don't want to waste my amalgam is all.
>>731417812Day 2, no need to reset I think
>>731418125thanks
IPL... They GET me.
Turgor remake when
>>731417712don´t use morphine, get 2-3 of the weaker apathy drugs from bandits, start of day or containers and use them for that if you really need to waste time on that retarded minigame, literally zero reason to do it if you break mirrors, there are 2 areas whey they seem to spawn at a higher rate, or just fucking abuse restarting short quests unless you are some kind of "purity" fag at the same time that you are to stupid to use the actual mechanics I guess
>>731419187they've remade it in 2009 already
>>731418649Wash your fucking feet, you slut
>>731421419What for, Daniil? I won't be performing surgery on anyone with my feet, silly.
>>731365292this boxart is hilarious. let us return to this era of grit and art
>Have prototype loaded>Only one plague district on map >But the only shabnak that shows up is the fake oneWhat am i supposed to do in this situation? I've wasted like 20 matches running around trying to find the real one
I was pretty sympathetic towards a lot of characters in 2 but I fucking hate everyone in 3. Bravo IPL I truly feel immersed.
>>731380460Patchnotes says both of these things got fixed today
>>731425635>I fucking hate everyone in 3Your fault. Because Yakov is a fucking hero. Everyone else can piss off.
>>731361726Is this game fun? I'm looking for something new to play.
>>731423837what has worked for me is lit the first pyre you see when entering a district then just wait for the fake one to fall on it and then run like a retard on the opposite direction while activating the prototype regular discharge, usually manage to get the real one fucked up on the first 2 discharges before the fake one returns
>>731426281no it sucks, fuck off
>constant sound of fireworks playing while i have my emotional reunion with eva on the tower
To the anon who got excited about the references to Borges: I don't get what you're on about.I saw a direct reference to Aleph, a direct reference to Pierre Ménard, and Daniil quoting the line about mirrors from Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius.And I see them as just that: neat little references to an author that inspired the writer, not some deep revelation with incredible lore implications.>>731426281Is this game fun?The previous games were the opposite of fun. But in this one they completely changed the gameplay and it is, dare I say, pretty fun.But I don't think it's a good starting point for new players. Start with Pathologic 2 instead.
>>731425635Mission failed successfully. I now inhabit the character of a mentally ill prick that wants to blow up the town.>>731425912 He's dead, Eva's dead, the twins are fucked, Burakh either saves the town or takes his people out to the steppe. Bachelor however, gets to choose between ego death or a shutdown lab.
New update fixed the character lighting apparently
>>731427359That'd be based, I don't think it's as much of a big deal as people online pretend, but I also have to admit that the lighting of faces is worse than it was in 2.
>>731428351I just saw some screenshots, it's not a huge change but apparently quite a lot of detail was lost with the old lighting
>>731425878Theyre in this thread...watching me...the golems of steppy legends...
>>731426281Depends on how much you like reading
>>731428437The biggest change is that the lighting seemed more frontal and softer, while in P2 it's from the side (often slightly the back even) and harsher. Gave it a sort of theatrical look, like someone is standing on a stage, took a step towards the audience, and now stands in front of the lighting. The P3 lighting is more "TV lighting" - technically more suited for the situation, but loses its intrigue.
>>731428720I know it wouldn't fit the new games since the character models are pretty enough by themselves, but the photographs in P1 were great for giving the NPC some... well, character.
>>731429518Yeah the current solution is better, but I understand what you mean that something was lost along the way.
>>731429518The actor headshots were kino, though I never got why they added a sepia tint in classic hd.
Any drawfags here? After the P2 release there was some nice new OC, I was hoping it would be the same for P3...
Lighting definitely looks a lot more normal now.
>>731432772Bachelor got fixed big time
the cutscenes are stuttering for me but gameplay is fine.should i wait for more updates ?
I don't get Grief's joke at the funeral>>731434261You mean the prerendered ones? That's weird.They're stored in the game files as plain webms, so you could watch them that way maybe.
>wasted all my amalgam trying to solve the lara situation
>>731434935that's what you get for trying to reason with a woman
>>731434935Same thing happened to me yesterday.The game as a whole is a lot less bleak, but there are still some heavy gut punches like "the Lara situation".
>>731435854>The game as a whole is a lot less bleak>Be given magical time lord powers>Allowed to basically skip around and ruin time continuum to fix your fuckups>There's still some inevitable situations you can't fixThat's as IPL as it gets
>>731434261I've got the same its weird because intro ran fine, also the ones at the ending, just the ones like entering the studio stutter
Yakov and pic rel are the true heroes of Pathologic.
>>731437835I can hear the brewing sound just by looking at this pic.
Meta joke, or oversight?
