Pathologic 2

>Actually put something back in the box
>retarded kids kick me out of the game because "i didn't follow the rules"
>they also made me kill an innocent person

>Refuse to slaughter Kin in the termitary, there must be another way
>way to the abattoir opens
>it also requires me to slaughter kin
these things only learn through violence

Kin aren't people, so it isn't murder.

Is the pass given to you for the guards by your house just useless after that event?Why the fuck didnt it disappear?

>>they also made me kill an innocent person
No, they didn't, you idiot.
Real emshen hours, here.

What did you put back? I put back some fishhooks, a rusty scissor, like 2 nuts, and some chalk across 5 different caches.
I got 2 shmowders and way more other stuff than I put back but I haven't heard shit and Im on day 3.

More like a-CAPELLA

i am really struggling with the abattoir part since at some point i get jumped on by 2 worms and i have no weapons

>"hey burakh we found THE murderer, find him here" t. children
>go find the guy
>he isn't the murderer and was actually just lured there by a letter saying they found 'the thief'

Random things, sometimes scissors and nuts, sometimes twyrine. But i always put back something
Does it have to be something children barter for?

>find some guy that isn't a murderer
>kill him
>"DUDE WHY'D THESE KIDS MAKE ME KILL HIM?!"

>no weapons
Have you tried looking for one? Sneaking is your friend.

> he hasn't played the original

Kids are literal gods

>get told to go to a place where the murderer is
>the "murderer" attacks you on sight. you have no way to know this isn't the dude who killed your father and that he is just as misled by the kids as you
>defend yourself
>"WELL TECHNICALLY WE DIDN'T MAKE YOU KILL HIM. I MEAN WE JUST LIED TO YOU BECAUSE WE WANTED TO GET RID OF THE OTHER GUY BUT NEVER MADE YOU DO IT"

He's not supposed to attack on sight.

I will try looking for a weapon then. And I do sneak, it just so happens that while i am sneak-punching a worm to death other ones find me

I bet the town also forced you to genocide it on Day 1, retard. Probably also """defended yourself""" from Grief's underlings Day 1 after """deliberately killing the patient""".

Do you have to go to Kain's place to talk to Rubin there for the meet-up quest if you have already talked to him during the town hall meeting at day 3?

If you already invited him, you're fine.

But he just goes I'll be busy murdering shits when you guys meet up and I dont think you get any specific line to invite him

He's playing tsundere.

So the marker not disappearing from Kain's home is unimportant and he'll appear anyways?Not like he's that fun to be around anyways

I don't think "proper" technical rules for their cache game were ever really explained. All we're told is that if "you take something, put something in." While the kids behind the cathedral complained that there was another kid who was stingy who, to quote "took a pocketwatch and left a pencil." So this implies value of left items also matters? I have zero idea what you're really supposed to leave there, like does it only matter if you take 3 items you need to leave some other 3 times as well? Like take two nuts and fingernail so you have to leave 3 chalks? Dunno how this quest ends if you somehow manage to follow the rules.
the kids say that this dude we kill in the Friday yard also killed someone, and wasn't he supposed to be the dude who was leaving creepy notes in the caches?

The quest is Calvinball, my dude.

Im on day 9 and I still haven't found a use for the bull, did I get memed?

Nigga game explicitly states it'll talk when shit goes down south
You haven't fucked up that much yet, have you?

But I am 3 days from the end of the game and still nothing, and I don't think shit can hit the fan in 3 days after all that has happened

based thanks, take this
I've heard it talks on Day 11, but I'm a casual that got into a deathloop on Day 7, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

hol up, so you're saying that
i can just STEAL all the shit from the kids and the outcome will be the same!

Was Haruspex being friends with Lara, Grief and Rubin a thing in the original? I only played the Bachelor in the original recently.

I'm saying it isn't know for a certainty either way, but that's fine because the entire point of the game is to make your own decisions.

> I don't think shit can hit the fan in 3 days after all that has happened

...oh user.

What is that sheet item and where can I find it?

I think he knew Lara a bit but the others were definitely not a friend group.

HAHAHAHAHA

Clothes stores, dude, come on, use your BRAIN.

Repellent cloak, sold on clothes stores. Not the normal cloak

it's a thing called "repellent cloak" you can buy it in the clothing shop. Buy two more, and two extra sewing kits when you're at it, that's what you'll need to the next upgrade over.
but I GOTS to know what are the RULES, those kids play me like a damn FIDDLE

well in my defense I already checked out four different clothes stores and only found one type of cloak thought it was something else

>see people selling a specific object a lot, not expensive as well
>just dont care about it and dont even buy a single one, why would I need THAT of all things?
>end up needing dozens of that
FUCK

Candy wrapper?

what are they even used for?

Nah, never even seen any candy wrappers yet
Talking about those red yarns that you need for anything clothing related

the exact same deal is with water bottles especially later on

>naked in the abattoir
How the fuck do I deal with the 3rd and 4th who come at me together?

To be honest that one seems a bit obvious so I already stocked up like 19 bottles with me already
But jesus christ there doesnt seem to be enough food to go around and shit just started to hit the fan

Book it like Booker.

you need to sneak, man. Try to lure them one by one, also in the chamber to the left you will meet up with the brides and they'll give you a blade to deal with worms. If you sneak up against an enemy you can keep hitting him with sneak attack and he wont aggro you, as in he wont know he's being attack as long as you keep sneaking. When there's 2 of them coming at you at once, use the scalpel

When are the other characters suppose to come out?

end of 2019, clara probably next year if we're lucky

If it doesn't end up that this is all a game kids are playing in a sandbox with a waterbottle and stuffed dolls, I will be super disappointed. Two more arcs to go, IPL.

We have no date, yet.
>he didn't notice

I think they'll keep the original game's arcs, but with some new twists.

How bad of an idea would it be to do a playthrough of reduced difficulty as practice for an Imago run?

just play it normally you nerd

They mention a lot of these things throughout the game, but they don't make it explicit. I'm talking a quality special ending with these things shown. As it stands, I'm getting the impression they're backpedalling and treating it more like a metaphor ("We're all totally stuffed dolls, because we're NPCs in a game, get it?" Yea, thanks Grief.).

user, Haruspex was the PC with the least Powers That Be importance in the original game. Of course they're going to be expanded on in Bachelor's and Clara's runs, possibly with Clara's miracle being reworked into a direct appeal to the sandlot kids.

>Two more arcs to go, IPL.

I've got high hopes, but I'm not taking it as a given either.

why would you even need it to be exactly the same like the ending of pathologic 1, the surprise was already done back in 2007 when the first game came out. It doesn't change anything if the game. Would it really enhance the game if there was a scene where you meet two kids and they reveal that "it's just a sandbox game, like the one years ago!" ? Plus meeting with powers that be was a reward for healing your and someone else's adherents, which don't play such an important role like in the first game now, plus there's a lot of moments where those two kids pop up as well anyway

Whoever the fuck thought that day 9 worm extravaganza in the abbatoir was a good idea should kill themselves

It'll give you an idea of what events to expect when, it'll still fuck you though in terms of being prepared for resource usage rates - the chances of infection will vary also.

You're honestly better off playing with the default difficulty and just playing carefully and sensibly.

we want the game to be almost unbearable
t. IPL

I mean if "it's already been done" is the argument, the whole game becomes kinda questionable. But we know that they have room to make things interesting, like with how they expanding gameplay mechanics. I found that making the game itself less meta and the ending super meta had a bigger impact. It made you reevaluate everything you've done and your motivations and how you felt about the character. I also think after the insane journey, it's actually hard to end satisfyingly, and the walking sim opaque ending is a bit unsatisfying. Maybe it's a copout, but taking it to the extreme with the Powers That Be ending sidesteps that a little bit and makes everything more satisfying for me.

there's only like 3 somewhat mandatory fights you need to take in the entire game, protecting stah, killing rogue worms in termitiery, and the abattoir run, just git gud user and use sneaking like a smart ripper you are

And I bet their programmers were given the same direction, considering the fact it runs like dogshit and 70% of times I got shanked/mauled were because of the unbearable stuttering.

i agree, both diurnal and nocturnal ending felt kinds weird, if a bit rushed as well. What I meant is that I wouldn't really see the point of them putting same old scene where you visit the Tower and discover whole game was just a kids' game because we already know it, and the shock value of it would be lost on the old fans of the series, not to mention there's more emphasis on the whole Mark thing and us being his actors

>Russians deliberately make things poorly to train Americans in tenacity to kick off global Communist revolt
Cyka! In hindsight, it was so obvious!

Thing is, if you prepare well, Days 10 and 11 are a breeze.

It's a fair point. Well at least I hope they do find something a little bit more impactful for the ending, even if it's totally different. I do have really high hopes for the other two characters.

"Well" is a strong word, and that's 9 Days of suffering beforehand. To properly do that, you need to be doing a repeat playthrough yes, loading saves counts you cuck or following a guide.

I treated both of the endings to be kinda meta anyway, because in both noctural and diurnal all the NPCs acted kinda... strange? I mean maybe that's how they were meant to act, just the fact it was weird for me to see all my friends just standing randomly in the steppe, like Lara forgetting who I was just because I saved the aurochs? Was it meant to signify that all non-kin people got brainwashed or something? Like all the people in the thread complaining that Aglaya got the short end of the stick but I find it hard to connect with a character whose only shtick was romance and meta narrative about how everything is just a game and you're a stuffed toy. Kinda hard to feel sorry for such a character when she dies. felt like both of the endings were pretty out-of-character for all the npcs honestly

Kind of sad that we never discuss the other games on this board.

We discuss The Void plenty, oynon, and don't pretend you meant anything else.

Or not being a muppet and prioritising trading for powders and stocking up on herbs.

By Day 11 I had 11 powders and 6 bottles of panacea.

why does mark from pathologic 2 looks like lodger from knockknock? Coincidence? i think knot

Not to mention the Devisers on the tower in Nocturnal.

Everyone who like's Pathologic's aesthetics, you should watch the tv show The Terror. The two are very similar. Old timey setting, ever-present dread, slowly spreading disease, shamanistic weirdness. Its a fantastic show.

Why did she hate Haruspex so much in the original? (I haven't met her in 2 yet)

Dumb butcher, not a college-educated gentleman.

he was basically the antithesis to her dream husbando, rough, local, part of the menhu, down to earth

protecting stakh isn't even mandatory, just don't trigger the quest and make the panacea
neither is killing the rogue worms in the termitary

Roastie punching above her weight.

Now she's just a sweet ditz.

>he doesn't want to make connections and heal the kin....

I know, that's what I said "somewhat" because those are basically the only ones that come to my head an aerage person might actually bump into while doing quest. Also, how do I make so i wont have to kill the worms in termitiery? I read somewhere that you can also spare both vlads and not give them either of them

the only medicine the kin deserve is a bullet between the eyes

A bullet is too clean. A knife is more appropriate
