remember to take breaks, because when this game sucks you in, in sucks you in for good!

I've started a game like 3 times and then stopped playing after a hour.

Yeah the first couple days of struggle turn off a lot of players early (including me). You just have to bear w it

If you're not hooked by empathising with a postbox then idk where you go from there

I think the farthest I've gotten was Kim showing up and heckling me for not looking at the body hanging in the back of the hotel?

tbf it was a pretty big fuck up, but he does end up forgiving you (probably) and the murder does get solved (spoilers). Also someone helps you find your gun.

I started it up once, got through three novel's worth of text before I even made it down the stairs, and then shut it off because it was either that or put a bat through my screen.

It was either read or destroy your computer? Tough

Similar experience here but I played a few more hours than that and somehow became both a feminist and a communist in the game without really trying

Really need to go back to it some time

I stopped and started it a couple times myself. It's easy to get kinda stuck just wandering around. But I still think it's an amazing game and it's definitely worth playing and finishing imo.

Has anyone here played all the game sober? (Not you but the character I mean!) Care to share their experience?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 minutes ago

There’s a smidge of recognition at the end if you do it sober, but not a ton of commentary throughout iirc

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

I do not remember playing this game sober, either me or the character. I did recycle a lot of bottles though

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 hours ago

Btw it’s really cheap on gog right now if anyone else hasn’t played it
