The game is hilarious if you like dark humor. My detective died once by calling random numbers and no one picked up. He was so upset the moral went to critical.

[@LogitechG]

Ahh, that's amazing - didn't know you could do that 😂 - Matt

[@spybreak23]

I died from sitting in an uncomfortable chair.

[@j.k.7985]

@@spybreak23 haha I know the scene. So funny !

[@S4ltyTar0]

It's great how different everyone plays each section. I dialled a number by muscle memory and my character called a video store, but they told me there was no member named Raphael Ambrosius Costeau so they asked me to come in.

[@Gun1Up]

I messed up a game of bocce ball because my character thought it was a shot put court and tossed the bocce ball in the water. I laughed for about 5 minutes straight at this because it was so unexpected. I've just been trying to get the most random conversations going with NPC and it usually ends up being hilarious. So much that the NPC thinks I'm messing with them, but my partner knows I'm a total dumbass.

[@frydfish4934]

Hot tip: if you're like me and love the writing and art but are very stressed about decisions, make a character. And really conceptualise their morality. That way you can make decisions and feel safer because you're just writing a character. Sure you're _making_ then hit orphans and eat out of bins, but it's not you! That's just Harry!

[@LogitechG]

That's an ace tip. And it's cool that the game is deep enough to justify that level of character creation - Matt

[@Guruc13]

That's cool! Thanks for the idea I'm gonna do something like that. A man of morality... that thinks with his fists? A religious fanatic... who is a spiritual pervert? Hmm...

[@BrotakuDon]

I mean, that is the objective when "role-playing". It seems to be entirely lost these days in RPGs and a lot of people don't seem to get it...You are MEANT to "write" a character and it's usually a lot more fun to play characters different than yourself, the more flawed they are the more interesting.

[@frydfish4934]

WaifuDonJuan. That's a good point. Crpgs have evolved naturally from ttrpgs because of the medium shift, they're not always just a digital dungeon master. Most good ones have the range for characters but unlike ttrpgs, crpgs can work just as well with a relatively mundane human self insert. Sometimes people make decisions as they would because that can make them more invested in the story/lets them make choices they actually want to take and see in a game they might never replay/learn something about themselves by seeing how they as a person change the story. You get to learn about your flaws instead. Crpgs and ttrpgs have never been more popular, so even if newer players come into crpgs with a more self insert mindset, roleplayings still really prevalent. For other crpg's, being myself is for first playthoughs and roleplaying is for second.

[@BrotakuDon]

@@frydfish4934 I agree and I often enjoy making characters that are a self insert. I just often see people complaining when there are options they find unappealing/disliking the results of a decision they made because it wasnt what they expected. I think most recently I saw it with Wasteland 3. Someone was upset that the decision they thought was the "right" or "good" decision had an outcome that they didnt like. This is a bit less about the character they played and more with game design but in a round about way its my core issue with player bases and why so many RPG games suffer. People cant fathom playing a "bad guy" or stories that dont work in such clear absolutes, which is a shame cause there are lessons to be learned in games like that. Worse still games like Skyrim which allow you to be/do everything in one playthrough and choices always result in the same narrative have really ruined and misrepresented the genre. Im enjoying seeing more true RPGs pop up in recent years. I purchased Disco Elysium this week and really look forward to playing it.

I just got this game on PS4 and all I can say is that I’m so glad that PC occasionally trickles some gems to console. It’s so good to have a slow-placed, thoughtful, explorative and utterly bizarre character study of an experience in a sea of linear shooters and copy/paste open world fetch quests.

Inland Empire isn't your imagination, it's your sense for the surreal or supra-natural. It's named after a David Lynch movie. Conceptualization is your "imagination" skill

Confirmed by developer, that there's nothing supranatural about Inland Empire - that's what the Shivers are, and at too high level, Interface.

[@SonicBoyster]

Don't save up too many skill points. The passive triggers are what really make the game worth playing, and you wont get the passive thoughts or skill interactions in skill that don't have at least a few points in them. More precise advice might be to get the skills you want reflected in the world up to a score of at least four before saving up more points.

[@AbtinX]

I play it the same way as you

[@agenerikusername2802]

Jimmy Strudel he’s saying to spend skill points

[@diciabadines2886]

@Jimmy Strudel they're saying if you want to maximize the roleplay of the skill you've chosen you should max it out as early as possible.

[@Pedone_Rosso]

I agree. It's advisable to just just keep 2 or 3 points in reserve and spend all the rest as you see fit: just a convenient buffer, not a stockpile. (BTW, this way of managing skill points is quite useful in most RPGs, something that veterans of the genre will do on autopilot)

[@youssefmohamedgadallah1217]

Idk the way I play is I save up points and spend mostly on thoughts or on something important like putting a point in hand-eye coordination before having to shoot a body off a tree, I think the reason this works for me is that I’m heavily specialized in favor of INT and PSY while sacrificing physical abilities in terms of base stats, therefore, even without having to invest skill points, I still get most of the passive thoughts and stuff

[@BrianHartman]

One piece of advice I would give is that choices *really* matter here. I know that important choices aren't unusual in an RPG, but seemingly silly/stupid things can have real consequences. You think you're having a lighthearted moment, and all of a sudden it turns dark.

[@benzur3503]

3:50 a few hours? You need to raise that visual calculus skill, I found them before I’ve had my first conversation

[@obscure.reference]

same lol

[@TimoNaaro]

I would like to see you analyze the philosophies of every skill in the game!

[@devilmikey00]

Even if you don't save scum you can kind of cheese most white checks in the game. Save up all your skill points, stack gear that gives you the most advantage for the roll, take drugs and just add one skill point at a time. You can re-roll every time you add a skill so just add one, roll, try again if you fail and keep going until you pass the check. I wouldn't do it with every check (like if you have a 3% chance of success don't bother, it's a waste of skill points) but if you are strategic you can make the majority of rolls. Since this tends to spread your skill points fairly evenly you'll have a better chance at passing the one time only checks across the board.

[@BalancedEarth]

I like this game just as a concept! I've been having this dream about creating a game with similar concepts, like the discovery of the character along with story elements more focused on what the skill Inland Empire offers. I definitely need to get my hands on this game!

The thought cabinet is something that I get concerned about. I have about 20 hours in and used some skill points to unlock a couple of extra cabinet slots. I have internalised about six thoughts but I am not sure if forgetting them to replace with other potential thoughts means I lose the buffs gained and I have amassed quite a list now of thoughts that can be researched/internalised so I am concerned as to what happens when I remove one thought to research another, is it worth doing, is it necessary to do it, should I just retain the thoughts that I like the stat buffs and just open new slots instead.

Just got the Final Cut via Steam sale. If it wasn't for having to work in the morning, I would've played more than the 6.5 hours I put in on the first day having it. _This game is_ *brilliant!*

[@FirebrandAL]

I thought this was a pretty awesome game and tbh, i've never played anything quite like it. Tons of text of course, but man... the writing is so good. There's some dense stuff here and there - like the history of the world you're in can get laborious and there's some books that are just weird. Measurhead's race theory stuff is completely insane... but yeah - I mean just the vivid detail in the text really makes you feel inside the world in a way that you don't normally feel in the game. This also had a lot of weird, sort of old school charm in the sense that doing seemingly really small things felt like a big deal. When I figured out how to jump off the ledge and get my coat. When I found that stupid trap door into Cuno's pit. Like just getting into places was fun - and made even more fun because once you got into a section of the map, there's so much to do in there. I mean you could get into the apartment building and spend a solid hour or two wandering around, talking to people, exploring apartments, etc. And that's the other thing, too; this isn't a big world at all. But it reminded me a lot of the Yakuza games (another game with a small open world) in the sense that there's not a lot of mass and area to the map; but there's something to do or look at or check out every five feet. There's always a building to walk into, books to find, posters to look at, people to talk to, etc. And then there's always a reason to go back for skill checks and other things you might have missed.... it's a cool world. Like all you really need to play this is a mouse, a lot of clicking and some patience to read. It didn't need a combat system. The tools you had alone were awesome. There's interesting loot to find but not a lot of it. It's just a game where everything in the world is quality and it all feels good being able to go out and get it or find it. The story's killer, the characters are some of the best written and fleshed out I've ever experienced in a video game and it's just a great throwback to a game that gives you quality over quantity with it's own unique style, presentation and vibe. Just take your time with it. Took me.... eh; like 45-ish hours to beat.. I'm not sure I could have stretched it much past 50. But it's good, doesn't overstay its welcome and you'll be happy you plunked the coin. Definitely one of the best games of 2019.

So you want a few points stocked up, but if you just save them all you won't be getting nearly as much crazyness inside Harry's head. There are 24 different traits, Some of them argue, some of them agree, a few of them are simply informative or give you suggestions on what to say or do in any given situation. Infact Suggestion IS one of them, and it as well at Rhetoric are like your two main "charisma" skills. Very important. So this whole game is brain busting balancing act, but in the best way.

The game WANTS you to use the TAB key, so no shame in that. Save scumming on the other hand can be a problem but is basically depending on how YOU want to play the game. And how strong your will is to stick with your own rules.

without tabbing i played through my first playthrough without a shirt

[@stinahinderson962]

I forgot that you could in my first play through and I think both work fine. Most things are already highlighted anyway

For me the only thing comes close to this kind of RPG where you can actually pretend to be something else is Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines class Malkavian and lower Intellegent level style in Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

I'm still waiting for the 1hr video where you tell us what you liked

I almost died from reading a love letter.

My detective ended up a communist artcop. He sang karaoke and yelled "workers of the world unite", which is exactly what the developers yelled after their acceptance speech at E3.

is this game worth buying?
