I tried to be a smart-ass here, and see if i can "break" the game's "logic" (i tend to do that occasionally ). I showed the red piece of cloth from the bridge to the count before telling him anything about the accident, to see if i can catch the game into "trap". As you can see, it stood my test. I may have lost the battle...
He he he, well I did something similar
Spoiler:
I showed the Count the red piece of cloth before I found Regin's body, and I did get the response from the Count

Oh well you could comment on the Act II. If you join a playthrough, you should be able to share your opinion too.

Oh yes, I liked that one too

Oh you little demon cheater Just kidding I actually played a little into Act III too, since it asked me for CD 2, and after seeing the "new abilities" Lewton had, I just couldn't resist

Lewton (wondering if Sapphire had lied to him): Lies flow like water, but the truth burns. Hmm, that's not a bad line. I'd better write that down.
Nice catch Trunk I didn't even got to see those

The inclusion of Two Conkers in DN is definitely a nod to Twoflower, the Discworld's first tourist, also from the Agatean Empire. Malaclypse mentions "inn-sewer-ants" in Act II, which of course is another reference to Twoflower, who worked as an "inn-sewer-ants" clerk.
Oh yes, I like how the minor characters in the game tell us about the history of the Discworld and Ankh-Morpork itself, even though I don't understand everything (since I haven't read the books)

They are from the first 2 Discworld games, I believe

My theory on the case to come
Spoiler:
is that I guess is that there's two killers. The Counterweight Killer and the Beast aren't the same person. The Beast is obviously a werewolf and came in from the boat, narrowing it down to two suspects. And I'm guessing that the Beast turned Lewton into a werewolf in order to save his life after being stabbed - placing Isla as the Beast. This also gives me reason to believe that Isla is also Therma, since no one trustworthy ever specified that Therma was a troll. As far as the rest goes, I'm still stumped on who's the Counterweight Killer, and what's Isla's connection to Malachite.
He he, well I have a whole different theory, that may be more likely, but I'm not sure if it's completely correct. I'll share it later

More comments on Act II coming tonight
