Traces of the supernatural reveal themselves more often than intelligent and reasonable men would prefer them to.
Pathologic
End my suffering, spooky beak-man
>oh i guess there's no pathologic thread toni....
>oh neat!
quit reusing this quote in every p thread
But it's the opening words of the game
Imagine having to be an executor and crawl into all the infected people's houses and drag their bodies to the hospital. The fucking worst
I did it Yea Forums!
>not just standing around outside all the time, looking spooky and pretending you're doing something useful
Congrats, actor. Now the hardest part begins. The waiting.
Ahhh... I want Lara's thighs to sandwich me.
that'd totally be me. they can't tell the difference between one another right? i tried doing the save the baby from the plague quest and entered a plague house for like the first time and it was terrifying.
she looks kinda thin but i bet she has nice thighs under that skirt
Imagine marble nest soon!
That should be mechanic for mobile game IPL said to make. Drag people out of infected districts within the time limit.
I want Burakh to sit on my face...
For me, it's the Polyhedron
For me it's Stamatins Broken Heart club. I would love to drink there IRL, what a great place.
I can see that being fun for some, might be too panic inducing for others though lol
I'm gonna get real, real with you actors.
Every interaction with Murky makes me sad.
Going into her train car literally makes tears
come
out
my
face.
you beat the game?
day 5 first playthrough, doing alright boys, kinda low on food and ammo but it's aight
yea me too. my heart hurts each time i come to her place. why did they found palce to live for teenage Grace and couldn't do that for 8 y.o. child?
DON'T BUY THE REVOLVER
BUY THE BVLL
>not adopting Murky and Sticky
What's up with you, khatanger?
no difficulty sliders, bro?
I don't mind adopting both, i just can't believe people of this town allow little child to live alone in the field literally. Saburovs even adopted Clara, who's old enough for job in a brothel.
Be khara, that's a nice bull!
yeah you would have thought Katarina would love a little autistic girl. not sarcasm, she literally seems like she'd like an autistic girl more than a regular girl. you'd think they'd be eager to adopt one of the orphans sooner
>click the slider toggle just to see what sliders are available and maybe tune some things because I was dying of hunger and exhaustion
>game asks me to reconsider because the intended difficulty is called the intended difficulty for a reason
>remember how satisfying it was to beat Bachelor's route in 1 after making it through all of the hardships
>close the menu and rob a house
>make it to the end with only 6 people dead not counting the inquisitor
Genuinely one of the best feelings in my life, walking around and talking to everyone on Day 12
i'm impressed you were able to get a gun, lol. I'm on my second playthrough and still rarely have enough on me to purchase one, let alone bullets.
i wish i had a more unique picture for you but i kept forgetting to take screen shots or was too busy racing around to look for a nice area
>tfw
nope, the days are very long, kinda had trouble when more than 1 enemy shows up, lose a lot of health, wish there was a mechanic where the enemys don't charge at you when you're aiming a gun at them, that would be cool
nice job, khatangher!
i'm right there with ya, that's how i felt, too and with similar situation. we made it, bud
I was lucky to stumble on a corpse that could be cut without consequences, took the organs and sold them, that's how I was able to afford the revolver
Man I thought I'd be able to play a 15 year old game on my laptop but even on lowest settings and 720p it chugs terribly outside. Does the original run much better than the HD re-release?
My favourite bit was Grace getting adopted by the Saburovs
I can't explain why other than I'm just happy she's got a decent life ahead of her
ah, yeah. Var is a nice strat. I find him too far away from where i usually am to go to reliably but i'm probably missing out on a lot of opportunities
yeah the writers did a great job of making you really want to make sure Murky and Grace make it through okay. the need to protect them seems to be a big recurring theme among people who beat it.
>wish there was a mechanic where the enemys don't charge at you when you're aiming a gun at them
That's exactly how Bad Grief uses his shotgun, ahaha
Nice scene, thanks fren
You come to view everyone in the game as people rather than just characters and that's really a big achievement
You brought me something yummy?
>this meme face
aye, someone in here called it a "dad-simulator", i think it's very apt
Is that a quote from the game?
Yes, and they managed to do that without voiced dialogs. Imagine what they could make with an AAA budget.
It's one of the two opening texts of the first game.
>tfw the kids keep asking you for food but there's no actual way to give them any...
>pale thug spots me
>draws a knife and charges at me
>I knife him back
>he stops attacking, sheathes the knife
>cries "calm down!"
>proceed to ignore his cries and gut the fuck out of him
>reputation increased
feels goods
nice. I hate when they run away too fast and you can't get that last hit in
if I got ammo to spare I finish them as they run away with a gunshot, they carry great stuff sometimes
they usually have twyrine for me which has led to at least 2 shmowders so far
goodnight, thank you for giving me somewhere to dump my screenshots
Eat and get some sleep, Cub. In that order exactly. I'll wash your clothes, you reek of blood.
>tfw you can navigate the town in your sleep
Cutscenes in P2 could have been better. The direction's barely better that in the oroginal one. I realize they were short on money and all
I like the direction in both games.
No way.
Shit, I think I should play it.
It reminds me a bit of filmed theatre; everything is very slow and deliberate. I think that in a game which places so much emphasis on the importance of the player's perspective, cutscenes don't need to be that important.
I wanna marry Anna and have my wife be literally an angel!
>they can't tell the difference between one another right?
No, they can't.
In 1, what determines if someone else's Bound gets sick? Is it random?
I believe most (or even all?) are predetermined, or triggered by plot events.
All right, thanks
i believe that after some day a random one gets infected every day
See that man over there? That's Haruspex. What the heck he does there while i'm getting my ass kicked by butchers.
Why do they kick your ass anyway? You got permission to enter
Hmm, I've never paid much attention to it. Some are definitely triggered by plot events, though. I'm just starting a replay of the original game myself; I'll try and pay more attention this time.
He's busy knowing the lines, why do you expect him to intervene? As in all things, you must save yourself.
why are the herb brides so hot bros
Easy on the twyrine, emshen
Day 9 starts at 14:00. Looks like Dankovsky was unconscious all this time after got thrashed lol
Bachelor needs his beauty sleep so he can keep doing miracles of Science!
>tfw day 10
>tfw no shmowders
>tfw only 4 cauldron slots
I was NOT prepared. Barely saved them all, but holy shit the game does not joke around.
don't stick your dick in clay dolls
should I wait to buy this for whatever "The Bachelor" route is? some review says haruspex will ruin thing for me idk what the fuck
Buy Classic HD and play Bachelor in that
Then buy 2 and play Haruspex in that
Then go back to Classic HD and play Changeling
Excellent advice.
this is autistic and i'd rather just wait to buy 2 if they are literally the same game. why would the developer give you this specific route in 2 as opposed to the "main" one or whatever bachelor is supposed to be?
Bachelor is not the main story. If anything, Haruspex is the main story since he's an insider to the town
Bachelor is suggested as the first route because he's an outsider, just like the player is initially, and has a slightly easier story
>this is autistic and i'd rather just wait to buy 2 if they are literally the same game
>if they are literally the same game
But they aren't, they explicitly aren't.
so my original question still stands, do I just wait or does it not matter as long as changeling is last?
You should do what suggests.
How do I seriously fight against more than one opponent? It's literally impossible once they gang up, also it's impossible to run away, why is it impossible to run away? this seems like an overlooked mechanic, I should be able to sheathe my weapons fast and just sprint off, instead I smash Q and try to turn while one guy punches and disorients me and the other turns me back, serious bullshit, I SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN AWAY, THIS IS A SURVIVAL GAME
Use a gun. Otherwise, run earlier.
that's bullshit, an underdeveloped mechanic, a plague-ridden shitter shouldn't be able to keep up with me
>that's bullshit, an underdeveloped mechanic, a plague-ridden shitter shouldn't be able to keep up with me
Damn, lucky you didn't play the original game.
The ordinary looters and thugs aren't full of the plague, only the lepers are
But if you want a quick trick: You can turn around while getting turned around by thugs
they turn me around while I'm 2 meters away, they got insane reach, maybe their arms prolong while I'm not looking
They can in fact only turn you around when right next to you. Do you stop sprinting before gaining considerable ground on them? But if they're spinning you around from that distance, keeping the sprint key held down while moving the mouse to spin you 180 degrees again, away from the bad guy, should keep you from getting punched or stabbed
idk shit's just hard for a nigga used to refined combat in games :( wish icl had more funds to refine the game
Getting into a fight is dangerous which is the intention
Sneaking up on someone and stabbing them is the safe way to murder. Well, that or a gun
I'm mostly getting ganged up on during the night where I'm just passing through a plague district, seeing 4 guys running at you, you have no chance of escape because running is slow and not enough stamina to shake them off
Run into a house
good idea, ty
You should play the original sometime
>wandering the streets at night, taking a stroll to go to the theatre
>walk around corner
>instantly killed by a thug's thrown knife
is the original even harder? maybe I'll play it but the aged graphic fidelity turns me off
Then go back to classic and play Changeling
But that'll cause madness!
Do you need to give sick people medicine daily in 1?
I wish there was merch or people who sell pathologic based stuff on Etsy. Man, if only I could get a bachelor snakeskin coat
Get a childhood friend to sew you one
i assumed grace would have a tiny lifespan regardless seeing as she refused to talk to the dead, so i didn't get invested.
refused to STOP
