Pathologic 2

>finding the rabble attractive

I'm on Day 2.
I was waiting for Pathologic 2 to playthrough Pathologic but now that it seems less likely to get all 3 characters I don't know if I should playthough Classic instead.

I'm really enjoying it but I don't know how frustrated I'll be if I only get half the experience.

All the kids leave town around Day 10.

If you convince Vlad not to go, talk to Clara in the hall, then talk to Vlad again about Vlad Jr and tell him to send his guards, neither of them go. But I think Taya gets infected/dies if you do

It's still a pretty full-length experience on its own for the price. The original is very good though too.

Just play it, it's not like you are getting half of the experience. You could always start with Haruspex. You can later go back for Bachelor play-through, but i would recommend to wait for release. Haruspex campaign so far is faithful to the original and pathologic 2 is mechanically better than 1 in every aspect.

>it seems less likely to get all 3 characters
Pure doomposting. IPL have stuck around for this long, they can finish their best game yet.
That said, no one stops you from going back to the original and playing through Bachelor's route.

>nuts in loli mouth
user i...

That entire day is bananas. It seems there must be a way to also not kill the Worms in the Termitary, but the door to Taya is locked as well so speaking with her is not an option.

they should've went with bachelor first, imo the haruspex walkthrough tells too much of the truth at the end, while the bachelors is way more cryptic

Bachelor learns what "powers that be" actually are, it spoils too much.
Also i belie that in current setup the bachelor campaign will be much harder.

it would be perfect in VR

No, but perfect on the switch.

I don't think they just spawn behind you, but both the infected and looters love sneaking up on you. I literally look behind me every 4-5 seconds in infected houses.

>budget Skyrim
A man with a brain has typed that. Really makes you think.

But the hallway was empty, the first room was empty and the next 2 doors(that I lockpicked) were empty too
Unless he came from the top floor and managed to sneak behind me to the to the exit of the house that was on the other end of the hallway when I was exploring the last room it is impossible he didn't just spawn out of nowhere

I don't generally want to know stuff I can't find out in game but it's early morning day 7, I made the panacea, where the fuck is Rubin? I need to give him this shit asap so I thought I'd metagame and checked every warehouse in the district thinking it might be like in Classic, but no dice. I haven't seen any previous events with him besides him showing up at the hospital daily.

Is he fucked?

Attached: 1559205291100.jpg (750x571, 238K)

are you sure he is not dead? You can check it on town tab. If not, on day 7 he should be in his house

I can't even. How the fuck can anyone come to this conclusion?

lara is best girl

I checked his house before going to the hospital/theater but he wasn't there. Guess I need to actually go to the theater first. Or doublecheck the people tab, maybe he's just dead and I didn't notice.

Sorry for Yea Forums but I reccomend you all a miniseries
The terror. It is set on the two ships that went to antartica to find a trade route to asia in 1850 and dissapeared without a trace. It is well acted, written, with fantastic sets and constumes.
It has no connection to pathologic other than the hopless setting and a mysterious disease slowly eating away at the crew.
I just reccomend y'all check it out.

noice, good taste. I only saw the first 3 episodes but it was indeed really good at the atmosphere and general sense of dread.

would recommend Cryostasis if you want the video game equivalent of something like this. it's an interesting horror game with some supernatural elements, a health bar based on warmth, and a surprisingly fantastic story. also you get to be a polar bear for a bit, it's got some really unique sequences.

you know the bit in the first episode of the terror where they put the guy in the diving suit and he goes underwater? there's a section in Cryostasis that's very, very similar to that. underwater in a clunky, almost immovable suit, ice-cold, murky darkness all around, and something may or may not be in the water with you.

Ironic how Souls' paradigm of constantly retrying a segment until you get gud is completely opposite to what's happening here.

So what's the best way to prevent infection? Giving people the (+) tinctures?

And once they're infected, is the only way to cure with shmowder? Or use high enough level antibiotics until the game is finished?

Anyone else got a dofgace t-posing near the Polyhedron on day 8?

That's the gist of it. If you can't cure someone outright, feed them the best antibiotics you can spare and pray that they'll hang on for another day.

I know I've seen infected townsfolk moving around their houses a lot. Might be the same for looters, but I never had the time to study their behaviour outside of combat.

Shmowder or panacea, yes. Antibiotics help but RNG can still murder them.

Yes, plaguebringers and bandits can spawn in infected houses, even if there wasn't one there previously.

It's because you didn't fucked up and actually made panacea AND tested it before day 7.

okay okay, but then notkin says shmowder kills people if too weak. Is that based upon their infection level or is there another sign I'm missing?

If I use a tincture and it doesn't reveal any more symptoms, should I just assume that there's nothing else in that layer or is there a chance it can just fail to reveal anything?

The idea of an easy "survival" game is fundamentally stupid.

It's actually bullshit. Only if you heal yourself with it you suffer consequences.
>too bad you can't heal your npcs with fire

The former.

If it doesn't show anything that means that the disease is hiding in the other part.

I like how the game gives you a v e r y good reason to test the panacea on yourself on day 6

Which day do all the kids move to the polyhedron? Does this include the diseased ones?

It will kill only you, it won't kill anyone else.

Anything to do on day 6? Filled up fund and did all quests by 1pm.

How the hell do you even fill up your fund other than every other day by doing the hospital shift? Just waste medicine on the sick?

can someone pls tell me the stuff necessary for upgrade 2 and 3 of the inventory?
i didn't find a repellent cloak yet, but i found a military cloak and i was wondering whether i can use it to upgrade the inventory or not

this, also applies to the first game, if you're healing your or other's bound the crow at the door says that it'll cripple them for life but do it and talk them and they're perfectly fine.

I usually just drop 2 tinctures and a pill on people, only takes like 4 people I think to fill up fund. Pretty worth for rep and money for more medicine.

Clothing shops usually have a repellent cloak and sewing box for around 1200 each.

They will come from other levels of the house

On day 6, whats up with rep being lost for doing autopsies on some bodies?

Okay, so I've been doing alt f4 every time I got shanked by 3 guys to avoid the death talk, but I guess the game stiill counted that as normal deaths? I didnt know about the penalty because I'd just quit and now my health is like 4/5 of what it should be

The moment you die the penalty is applied to all of the saves in that particular file. The penalties aren't particularly bad except for the loss of hugging, so don't worry too much about it.

You are not mekhu yet.

The most important question is when do people rip the cunny models and start making SFM stuff

Three correct treatments gets you a filled fund.

>You are not mekhu yet.
are you ever? I think i was losing rep even after cutting that herb bride in abbatoir. Wasnt that supposed to be my 'exam'?

I've played through the whole game with 0 deaths and I didn't see any opportunities for hugs.

I don't think so, no. The steppe people acknowledge you, but the rest of the town does not.

That's maybe the saddest thing I've ever heard. I'm sorry for you. There are at least 2 that I saw.

O-Oh...

Yeah, but some bodies dont make you lose rep, so I dont know :(

But how do they call upon the menkhu, the faithful of the warden kin?

History Buffs approves this post

With the rep lost is it a forced thing? Or is it only if you haven't been grabbing organs?

It's only when you cut. But in the theater when cutting, I lost rep 2 times when cutting, but not the other 10 times. I'm not sure if its a bug or what.

Oh i meant the huge one on day 6.

No. it's a retelling of the first game. I have no idea why they called it Pathologic 2, that was a dumb move.

There are 5 bottles but 6 blood springs. Technically you can go back later with an extra bottle for it.

user, use your brain.

In the bottom right there's a village, far, far away. You get told to go there in a dream.

any other game i would dismiss as retarded if i read this sentence about it i think

So what happened, why didn't they start with releasing the more beginner friendly Bachelor in the remake? Is there any specific reason?

So despite it's description, does Shmowder actually kill anyone? Doesn't seem like it, or I've just been lucky.

It doesn't.

Yeah, go take a nap and it should trigger. You can't afford to miss it.

Numerous financial difficulties meant they couldn't finish the Bachelor and Changeling paths in time, rather than delay the game's release some more they decided to release Haruspex and the other two later. There's a dev video on it.

No given release date and I dunno if they'll cost.

I took a nap and didnt get the dream aghhhhh.

you need to test all 4 self made antibodies first

pathologic 1 came in 2005 and is one of the OG "le creepypasta tier walking simulator of whacky stories and aesthetics", so it has had a minor following since then. if it came out today nobody would give a shit since such things are a dime a dozen, but it has a legacy. haven't played 2 yet but the original does it its own sorta charm

I don’t get it, on the morning of day 6 I did my thing at the hospital and tested my antibiotics when I was there, then about 5 minutes after leaving I got a message saying there’s ‘no point testing any more’ and that the panacea doesn’t exist?

I used blood, liver, kidney and heart to make the antibiotics but it says I only tested kidneys and heart. Is it a bug?

Nope, you did everything right.

Did you give Bachelor the bull blood?

happened to me

did you try to go back in time some to salvage or did you start over?

Really good. They even explain terms that (I think) are made up for the game.

Or better yet, use someone else’s!

At least one is at night of day 4, you can hug Lara at the friends gathering and I've seen both outcomes with and without the penalty.

Okay, so I can still find the panacea? Do I have to dream or something?

What's up with the day 8 theater? Just have to go without the trust for that day? No one came to relieve me.

I have this quest to treat 3 patients in order to fill the quota, but I only have enough tinctures to reveal the layers of 2. Can I just guess the antibiotic skipping the diagnosis? Also, do I need to administer the correct antibiotic to all 3 for the quest to be successful and rack that sweet fund money?

So was the Haruspex only invited to the children cache thing as part of their keikaku to kill the guy or did I actually get fucked by breaking the rules and not placing something on the caches after looting them?
If it's the former then I'm glad I broke the rules

Yes. I've gotten antibiotic guesses correct before, so I assume that is also a valid, savescummy way to complete it. I skipped it, though, because I was out of antibiotics, because I suck shit at being a doctor.

First Katerina locks me in her fucking morphine den and now that she's infected she's fucking disappeared on me. It's like she WANTS to die or something.

Is this a bug? Sounds like other people have had this issue too. Does Saburov have a back room or something?

>do I need to administer the correct antibiotic to all 3 for the quest to be successful and rack that sweet fund money?
Yes
You can just pray to RNG and get lucky with the tinctures so they only cost 1-2 to reveal the right one
Or you can just go balls deep and use 1 tincture to get a hint of 2 colors to get a 50/50 chance of getting it right
You want meds to treat patients and get big fund rewards so you should always have enough tinctures and antibiotics for 4 patients per day

I tend to sleep on Lara's house since it's near the theatre and she has never left the house so far up to day 8, maybe your game is bugged

Was anyone able to solve the conflict without killing 4 dudes at the termitary?

Huh. I don't remember that dialogue at all and I killed that loser.

How did you handle the quest where she tries to get a water source? I told her that was a terrible idea and wouldn't help, haven't seen her since. Wondering if that's why.

there's a few spots out in the steppes (cemetary, any rocky outcroppings near it that you can see on the map) where there's absolutely mad weeds. make a quick trip with inventory space and you'll be set to make tons and tons of tinctures, all you need is the water.

I found a water with infected water, got a sample in a bottle, carried it to the Bachelor, he said he would tell saburov and the water barrels in the middle districts would be destroyed, then I told Lara and she went "okay"
That's pretty much what happened in that questline

I know, but I didn't realize how mad of a supply it was until quite recently. Can get like forty herbs in less than five minutes, shit's bananas.
I probably pissed her off, then.
RIP Gravel
At least that's one less patient needing care.

>Gravel
I-Is that how they translated her nickname?

If you didn't know that there were 2 other characters you would probably consider this a complete experience. Also IPL's entire existence has been a horrible nightmare on par with the lives of their characters. If they got through the development of some of their other games they can get through this.

Are you a Russianon? Yes, it's the pet name Artemy has for her.
She calls him Cub.

did they add a new cheevo
what the fuck is Imago

There's another one on day 11

Yeah. In the russian version, her nickname is Forel, meaning trout. The backstory for it is in the description of one of the fish.
Everyone calls Artemy Bear, so that's close enough. Murky's russian name is Cub.

I really adore how well this game pulls off the whole "If this one little thing could just go right..." feeling the entire time. It never works out, it never gets any better. It's such a delicious bitterness.

>fucking bullshit
they LITERALLY tell you to reduce their pain you absolute retard

Yeah, but the specific parameters for what qualifies as "reduced pain" aren't given. If you go through the usual tincture-painkiller-tincture-antibiotic route, you technically reduced their pain. We're not told that what specifically counts is dropping the Painometer to zero, and you have to fuck up at least one patient to find out for certain.

>INACTION
well you did fail Lara's request by NOT doing the wrong thing and letting her guests drink potentially infected water, no?
>Morphine
They spell it out to you when they teach you how to treat people and then the task is clearly given to you to reduce the patients' pain. You deserve everything you got

Giving them something to curb the infection doesn't count as "reducing pain"? And why would they need a doctor to do something as trivial as giving morphine vials to someone? That's something nurses do, not doctors

>you're told to reduce their pain
>the rightmost meter is the pain meter and is filled to a certain degree on all patients
>the closet is full of painkillers
I know your first instinct would be to just straight up treat them but really, they do make it pretty clear what needs to be done. Giving them tinctures increases their pain, regardless of whether you reduced the infection or not.

Are you stupid? There's a pain meter to the right of the screen in the treatment mini game. God damn, no wonder why people think this game is too difficult.

No, because giving them tinctures is painful but treats the illness. It doesn't cure it without side effects and you need painkillers to counteract the treatment methods. How did you idiots make it past day 2?

>If you go through the usual tincture-painkiller-tincture-antibiotic route, you technically reduced their pain
You don't?
If anything doing that leaves them with their pain near the max of the meter
Also they even bring up that they have what you need in the locker and that they don't have enough, and the locker has morphine
If you fucked it up it's on you

>Giving them something to curb the infection doesn't count as "reducing pain"?
When the thing you give them to curb the infection increases the pain meter then no, not really

You're illiterate and snotty. That's unfortunate.
>You don't?
Some games would check off quest progression just for having administered the painkiller at all, is what I'm saying, and again, you don't know for certain that you're NOT supposed to treat them until you try and the mindmap icon doesn't progress.

How can anyone think that being given the task to 'reduce pain' and being told by Rubin to administer painkillers think that you shouldn't just give them morphine?

>entire argument starts off by bitching about not doing something which actually led to something good happening
>Wtf this is bullshit I treated everybody!!!!
Are you actually retarded? Your not doing something obvious made something get averted, then you start bitching about pain management and everyone calls you retarded for you being a retard. Fuck off.

How did he make a mistake rather than the idiot who missed the huge pain gauge on the medicine screen? Why are you calling him illiterate? I'm genuinely confused here.

Wait, so on Day 9 the general tells the cringeling to prove she can heal people and your daily quest is to heal someone for her?

>Rubin says to go brew morphine or steal it
>Task for the day is to administer morphine
>I CURED THEM WHY DIDNT I GET MONEY

It can't be any simpler, my dude.

Yeah, I get that. I just don't see how it's hard to figure out. You're not supposed to successfully treat everyone, and here you're just supposed to do your job as a doctor.

Why people saying Void (original Turgor) is vague and let you have discover plot on your own without holding hand.
Because it cant be more straight foreword with everyone keep explaining you same things over and over again.
It is actually disappointing that game barely even allow any room to interpretation.

>Why people saying Void (original Turgor) is vague and let you have discover plot on your own without holding hand.
There are actually two different versions of Turgor with different dialogue/script between them.
The earlier version was the more vaguer version.

Reducing pain has nothing to do with treating the illness because more treatment methods actually increase pain buildup. The game specifically tells you this.

How you managed to get this far is beyond my comprehension because the game tells you everything you need to know. It's hilarious how you call anyone else illiterate when you can't even read a couple prompts on a screen properly. The game makes clear distinctions between treatment and reducing pain during the tutorial section at the factory, so don't go around calling people illiterate retards when you're acting like an illiterate retard.

Well I'm glad you understood it because I didn't.

Giving them morphine for the daily task is obvious, but you're still expected to do additional work on top of that so I figure might as well treat these guys I'm wasting morphine on.

Reminder that you can run with your firsts raised and running this way does not raise thirst. It also lets you continue even with your stamina bar depleted

>and here you're just supposed to do your job as a doctor
Doctors treat diseases. Nurses administer painkillers

They might have patched that out because I'm still getting exhausted.

>Giving them morphine for the daily task is obvious, but you're still expected to do additional work on top of that
No, no you aren't. All that is expected is the daily task at hand, anything else you do after that is purely optional and the game specifically states this.

Burakh isn't a physician.

>murky dead

Your stamina still drops, but you can continue "running" when it reaches 0. It is slower than normal sprinting for short distances but better over long ones since you don't have to slow down to recover. Also no thirst buildup

If I recall well there were actually three version of Void/Turgor. The third (unfinished) one was only accessible through the console command in the first one.

That's always the case. When you play Bachelor, Artemy is just a murderous, unpleasant brute while Cringeling is, well herself. It's even worse when you do play as Cringeling and the other two characters literally give up on trying to cure anyone because they're too busy trying to kill each other

IIRC, that was the case in the original game, both of the other player characters would usually be useless and unnerving.

That too. Even after beating the game, I still don't feel comfortable fighting worms.

But we both know that panacea by itself ain't gonna solve shit. Although admittedly the Bachelor does seem to have low efficiency, since even the serum was made by Rubin

How do I save both Vlads?

That'd actually be bullshit though, if there's nothing you can do about it.

I wouldn't mind if you could only use one shmowder per character in a playthrough, on account of it being extremely unhealthy.

You can install the Polish version through steam then use a translation patch to play the first version. Both versions have their appeal

Which version is the one available on steam?

It installs the English version at first but if you go under properties you can select which language you want to play and that’s where Polish is at. There’s a sticky in the steam discussion board where you can get the instructions and patches you need

Herb Brides have them sometimes. Go hunt down some naked ladies!

I can play the Russian one, language isn't a problem. I was just wondering if there are actual different gameplay/content differences in any one given language

Do I need to play the first one to understand the second? I just started playing the first and I'm already bored. Does it get fun? The atmosphere is cool and all but the gameplay is just boring.

How many would I need and on which day?

No you don't. This is a remake and you will not miss anything but c. 3 obscure direct references by not playing the first one.

If answers to both are "no", I don't even waste the antibiotics on them. So far on day 9 and only Anna Angel and Grief, which was a massive fuck-up and RNG fucking me in the ass, died

Try doing the console command fuckery, it helps. Before going anywhere further down than the "childs">name>properties, check if the character is set as "enabled". That fixed it for me.

Seriously IPL, get your shit together

I should save all the shmowders for the kids, right?

Anna seems a bit more...restrained? this time around. I mean there's some suspicious shit going on with her dire need to "help" babies and she's still clearly got that circus backstory fuckery but something about her makes me dislike her a lot less.

How are you supposed to get organs if cutting them loses you reputation?

Do it anyway. You regain reputation pretty easily. Also its not like having 1 or 2 districts hate you is the end of the world.

Can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs. Man up and take the hit, then go save a baby or cure some randoms. You won't make it through the game without doing some stuff people aren't gonna like.

Recently finished the game and went around saying farewell to everyone. I'm surprised she was incarnation of the sandpest. Did she imply who she really was during my time talking to her?

No. Your immunity drains slowly as you are breathing infected air. Coming into contact with other sources of infection (plague clouds, infected people, infected surfaces and things) takes off a chunk of your immunity meter.

When do you get the right to open bodies? I'm on day 4 and I need an infected organ but i'd have to put up with 2 rep hits (killing a civilian and then opening it without having the right)

There should already be a dead infected body in the theater.

might have missed it then, will check. Thanks oynon

Anyone tested how the clothes work?
I assume all clothes degrade passively or when you get hit, but what about their specific tasks.

Mask are supposed to help against plague clouds, do they ONLY help against this?
Gloves when you manipulate objects. But do they also protect from cloud and degrade when getting hit?
Boots(I assume) lower the passive immunity degradation.
Coat for getting touched by infected and probably also passive, maybe also clouds?

If anyone is willing to test this please post your results

Nah, day 8 is the same. Just note that around 17:00 or 19:00 some quests might pop up so make sure you're rested.

Just do them on day four with the stuff you grab and the funds from the town hall.

this, theater is your #1 source for free infected organs. you still get the rep hit but they're right there for the taking, and if you cut first and heal after you can negate the rep penalty.

Who is the cutest and funniest character

For all of you faggots saying how the 4 worms at the termitary are hard, fuck you. I died 2 times trying out various shenanigans because I thought they were actually hard.

You can just sneak up on the first 2, then head down the stairs of the side entrance and the other 2 come to you one by one. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS HOLD RIGHT CLICK WHEN THEY SWING, AND THEN SLASH THEM WITH LEFT CLICK KNIFE WHILE CIRCLING AROUND THEM. Easy fucking kills, 10x easier than the shitty knife bandits, fuck you I could have had 0 deaths you peices of odongh shit

Where do you even find it? That red cloak is the last piece I need.

You either hunt down the people of a specific district or two that's out of the way and you don't intend to trade with, or you cull the weak from the district that loves you. The hospital district is pretty good for the second part because you can regain reputation whenever you do the hospital job

does living blood refill every midnight?

You can last for a while even with no immunity, the black soot starts obstructing your screen vision and the worse it is the closer you are to getting infected. If you only need to run through the district you'll be fine as long as you don't get hit by a cloud. With 0 immunity I assume that interacting with objects, getting touched by infected or getting hit by plague cloud most likely immediately infects you

My advice is to not rummage through trash in infected districts either

They improved performance a lot for me with patch 3, and they said they'll keep on working on it so I have high hopes. I think the biggest problem is cell changing, the game starts noticeably having worse and worse performance whenever you go through a door. If I play for long enough eventually the game crashes when I try to go through the door. I only have 8gb RAM so that might be why

Same. We need to download more RAM lad.

But hurry while you can! We may run out of the internet!

I don't understand.

No. It doesn't seem to have any drawbacks.

Imago is the final form of an insect (for example butterflies) and the icon shows the Theatre. It seems to have something to do with tumor that appears after your deaths.

The artbook says they wanted to have it be ambiguous whether she was a genuine, miracle-producing saint or just a sickly maniac. The baldness is meant to evoke both religious hoodooery and chemo.
It's worth pointing out that her "sister", Aspity, is also uglied-up in this game. The concept art makes her look even more inhuman.

hey, that only makes it better
But isn't she still a kid? Even if a particularly ugly one. It's true that this time she looks the part of a creepy little creature that just came out of the ground one day. But I can't help but be disappointed.

I figured, given the Google definition, that it might just be a cheevo for having gotten every other cheevo. Not sure why it was added post-launch, though.
Speaking of: what is the significance of the different-colored icons in the mindmap? Think the failed/severed branch ones are always yellow, but my dumb ass can't figure out any real pattern beyond that.

Yellow is the failed quest, red outline means the new quest that appears on the map.

How does it compare with Thief 1&2?

Everytime I sleep on a save in Day 8 and have the dream with bachelor, changeling and haruspex on stage my max health, max hunger, and max exhaustion decreases.

Does it even matter if any of your bound die in 2?

The games are very different.

Thief 1 was more atmospheric, more variety and spoopy. Thief 2 had more basic robberies, lots of filler and lacked variety.

Pathologic 1 was atmospheric, had clunky mechanics and less doctoring, it did have more multi-level story detail [from having all three characters at release].

Pathologic 2 has better mechanics, has a different but comparable atmosphere, lots more doctoring, but doesn't have the same weird multi-level endings that the original did [until it gets all three characters]

Pathologic 2 also has the bull.

I've seen anons claim they just need to stay alive long enough to contribute their important parts to the story, and I had a conversation with an NPC I can't remember that implied something similar.
I don't know for certain, and haven't finished the game.

Spoiler: Have anyone found out a solution to save Aglaya on day 11? She seems to die no matter what you do.

Does the town have a name?

No.

Not really, it's sometimes called "Town-on-Gorkhon".

I can see where he's coming from claiming Haruspex is a "person", but he seems to misunderstand the character. It's not exactly an accident his background is split between established medical science from outside the town, and a background in the Kin.

I want Silent Hills. I want Death Stranding to not be shit. But neither will happen. Just kill me familia.

I'm on my 2nd playthrough because I couldn't resist and I must say that playing Pathologic 2 becomes almost comfy experience when you know what to do. I didn't get sick of it either because there's so much content that I doubt if after >50h I've seen more than 70% of what the game has to offer.

Prayer.
Could try a clothes shop, adult women, herb brides. I think I've found 4 so far, on Day 7 currently.
>Anyway, I don't understand people who say that graphics are mediocre.
Performance is so bad people are dropping settings to try to cope.

Search houses in post-infection districts and get lucky. It's easier to find living blood than fucking spindle.

It seems I'm the only person for whom the performance is fine, even though I don't have high end computer. The last patch even improved it.

Guys... they're at it again...
The town isn't real... is it???

Depends on what you'd consider fine I guess.

I've got the settings on max on a 4-5 year old machine. I get between 30-60 fps and I'm happy with that.

>walked off stage and the Pathologic 2 text came up
Same, this only happened when I went to the door backstage, if you leave through the door the game goes to credits normally. I saw someone say on the Steam forums that it's intentional but poorly implemented. I guess the idea is that the game is forced to close because the theater play is over, but it makes it seem more like the game simply crashes.

Humor me: can you post a Speccy screenshot? Or list specs.
My framerate tends to stutter, loading times at cell changes usually take a while, textures on the initial load take forever to come in and the game freezes while it's happening, performance gets worse the longer I play, no noticeable change from any of the patches.
This has to be b8. No one can be this stupid.

Where's the last courier? Help.

>Where's the last courier?
Do you mean the one that got shot and ran away? He's at your hideout entrance.

Certainly.

i5-3570k
16gb ram
GTX 1060
running the game off a mechanical 2tb HDD
Win 7

I get 60fps in interiors and drop down to 30fps occasionally when in really busy exteriors that are plague infected. It tends to run around 45-50fps most of the time with all settings on max @ 1920x1080.

Maybe the RAM is the bottleneck, then?

It's sold as "complete" despite missing 2 other characters that focus on the story. The other game had 3 characters whereas this one starts with 1 with the other 2 being added later on as dlc

I got i5 3570k, 8GB RAM, GTX 1070 and SSD. I got pretty stable 60FPS (it never dips below 50-55FPS). I just don't maxed out everything.

And also 1440p, I forgot.

Possible. I increased the page file to 16gb and moved it to another hard drive during the alpha. I kept it the same for the full game's release.

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

>This has to be b8. No one can be this stupid.
I hope it's bait. I really do. This is embarrassing to read at this point.

>Maybe the RAM is the bottleneck, then?
I have 8gb of RAM, and the game was simply unplayable for me until I increased my pagefile.sys and made a change in some config file that forced the game to optimally use less RAM (at least I think that's what it does, there were values for max ram usage and min ram usage, so eh). It still chokes and stutters when loading interiors/town districts, but at least I can play.
I also play at 50% resolution scale 'cause fuck my ancient PC I guess.

It's Fromsofteque, you simpleton.

Is this the one where you need to find alive people? Their positions are randomized, so you'll have to find them yourself. They're easy to find, I think they're even highlighted with your detective vision. Don't forget to check backstage and the second floor of the theater.

So the objective can't be completed? I expected at least a body...

Haven't played the first one, might wanna try this. Wasn't this one supposed to be a remaster? Was kinda waiting for it. Or is that another proect?

Bit of both. It starts with a worst case scenario ending of the original game. Has new things, has some returning things.

It's both a remaster and a sequel.

Ah okay, as long as I know they're around the theater. I thought maybe some would be in another district, but that'd be pretty cruel.

It is more or less a remaster, yes. It's got a similar structure and story outline to the original, but all of the parts have been improved, and specific elements moved around. Give it a shot, and get these poor Russians some money.

PROTIP: Remasters are just upscaled/higher-res assets, like Classic HD sort of was.
It's a remake/reimagining/sequel. You don't need to have played the original.

It's a remake, yeah. The publisher is just retarded and called it 2.
>How could a brainlet do this?
Google "increase page file", it's really easy to change it. Pathologic 2 needs a page file of at least 16 gb I think. And here's the config change I used from the steam forums:
(remember , always do backup files if you editing game files )
go to " C:\Users\"user name"\AppData\LocalLow\Ice-Pick Lodge\Pathologic 2\Settings "
right click on "ExternalOptimizationSettings.xml"
choose edit and search for: (its on end of file)

"

1000000000
500000000
"
and change 1000000000 to 4000000000

Wouldn't this be more than 8GB of RAM could handle, though?

Just finished it, shot down the Poly.

Feels bittersweet.

I dunno, but after the changes to both page file and the config my game never chugged more than 5 gb of RAM, at least according to task manager, so eh.
>Feels bittersweet
At least it's somewhat sweet, it was a joy to see Murky at your new home and all that hope for the future.

Was nice, felt bad seeing mimes that were stand-ins for those who passed. Luckily there weren't many.

Yeah, I felt like shit when I went to the bar first and saw a mime instead of Peter Stamatin, who died first in my playthrough. His brother even asked me if I could've done something to save Peter, and I honestly responded yes, I could've.
Death fucking sucks.

They both died despite me dropping daily Yas (+) on them. It's a bitch.

Ok thanks, might pick it up then since I was curious about the first one but waiting for the remake to be done.

Question about day 7: If I don't get spindle to Anna, is she dead or infected? I want to know so I don't waste a day restarting :(

Just finished my playthrough. Two deaths, and one was because my Lara disappeared/bugged out so I couldn't treat her.

I have to say, they did a great job overall, but the best ending of the original Pathologic was so much more fun and stronger that to me the original still absolutely dwarfs this one. 10/10 for the original, 8/10 for the second.

>is she dead or infected
I assume she gets infected. I'd suggest you don't bother with her since she's not really an important character to you or your story, and an asshole to boot. I thought I'd have to ignore that quest until I came across a spindle by complete accident, so she was fine till the end of the game.

How does reputation work exactly? Does my dialogue effect it? I'm just starting off and it seems like I'm just getting gradually more and more hated even though I haven't been stealing/initiating combat

There's a body user. You've just got to find it.

Doesn't seem to have helped. WELP.
You didn't notice the town blames you for the two murders that happened last night? Word gets around. Keep going, you'll be fine. Just try not to kill anyone that's stupidly trying to be a hero stopping a popularly-believed-to-be murderer.
And yes, dialogue does occasionally have a minor impact on reputation. So be polite.

>and one was because my Lara disappeared/bugged out so I couldn't treat her.
How did you handle the water barrel quest?

It's all about muh feels
Was nice to be able to see them in the Theatre though.

I sent a barrel over and the area got infected. I actually gave her a schmowder but she wasn't in her house around day 8 or 9 anymore, and when she got infected there was nobody around to treat.

First there was the sneaking, now there's the jogging.

There's a temporary fix for if Bound characters aren't spawning.

Attached: 765653765.jpg (553x392, 109K)

Ah. She's been gone for me since I told her I wouldn't help, was wondering if it might be scripted. Probably another bug.

Yea, as far as I know that's not intended.

>Bound characters aren't spawning
Fug, and here I thought I couldn't find and treat Spindle and Khan because they were all in the Polyhedron, but I guess it was just a bug. Khan died because of this, dammit!

Wish I knew that sooner! Ah well, doesn't seem to affect the ending much anyway.

Use debug console command necromancy to res him. It's the Kain way! Not really.
Those parameters make no sense. Is the game accidentally setting them as dead for no reason without updating the character list? And why would you set them back to dead to heal them?

It's a bug. The character isn't spawned on the map, so you're tricking the game into spawning them in an infected state to then be able to treat them.

Stupid question, but: what if you do this with a character that is only "In Danger"? Would they spawn as normal?

Got to the end and it glitched I guess. Viktor didn't spawn. I look around in CTRL mode and saw a bunch of bodies floating in the sky. Really weird.

Attached: lol.jpg (2552x1440, 178K)

You can change the assignment of state for characters that have already spawned. I'm not sure how it would work for a dead or bugged character. I'd imagine that once you've spawned them in, you can change their state.

So this..... is the power..... of Nina Kaina..... woah......

fuck, i couldn't talk to the bachelor because the alarm bell just rang on day 3.

did i miss out on anything important?

Heading to Abbatoir, do I really need to store all of my shit like Oyun said or is he just bullshitting me? Can I at least bring in food/water/weapon/clothes?

Don't bother, all your items get removed when you enter and you get them all back if you die or get out of there.

Just make sure to have some space free for some items you'll get on exiting.

Yum, look at that food and weapons. That's what I expect my inventory to look like on a new playthrough.

Cheers, I have so much shit on me and I don't wanna spend 3 ingame hours putting it in storage and then taking it out

If you mean visiting him at Eva's, then no. He isn't there, and that quest stage just exists to introduce you to Eva, as well as the Orderlies as separate entities from the Executors.

But how much space do those items take up?

I'd look to keep 4 blocks free.

I can't for the life of me find a fucking spindle. I've looted 12 houses so far.

Fuck your spindle, I found 4 spindles. They're completely random, if it's for Anna's quest it's no big loss

Now tell me where to find an army jacket, I looked through 5 clothing shops so far and nobody sells it

Have you tried murdering a member of the army?
Serious suggestion, by the way.

>an army jacket
This. I was looking to get the last inventory upgrade, but couldn't find any jackets. Maybe there's some secret army cache somewhere, or you can loot it from a soldier corpse?

Dev said that it is for finishing the game on the default difficulty, but right now it is disabled because difficulty sliders are not in yet.

Somebody's gonna have to explain the Bull ending to me.

No, but by that logic they'd drop a rifle or red bandits would drop a knife. So I seriously doubt it would work

Spicy. Where'd they say this?
Fun fact: I have never killed a red bandit with a knife
I offered the suggestion in case you were abstaining for moral reasons.

Both of them do that with some probability. I got a rifle once and a knife a few times.

Not sure about the jacket though.

"yep, it's an achievement for the canonical level of difficulty. it has not yet been enabled, because the difficulty settings have not been enabled yet either."
