I’ve completed the game well with 2 of it’s endings, there is probably at least 3 because the mayor/politician was in 1 ending and wouldn’t be if I didn’t protect him

It has interesting themes of big brother, dystopia, poverty and . But for me the game seemed disjointed whenever the main story of Regis was broken down for Latha and Max sections and neither had enough characterisation or enough of a person storyline to make their parts interesting for me. The puzzles were still logical, well constructed without being too hard or too easy. But I lost interest in these sections. Not because Regis is a great character but because these characters didn’t have much personality. But the story really started to come together in the last 2-3 chapters.

I did guess that Latha would be a long lost daughter a few champters before she did. Partly because her character had little purpose otherwise and obviously her colouring matches that theory

So Adam Baxter No shades of grey here, he’s a complete psychotic who has little rational motivation to get revenge on Regis. He’s not a wholely believable character

So let’s talk about the endings. In the ending where Central is still the central computer Central actually aids Nina, the woman who plotted to overthrow Central to murder Galatea in order to use her brains to expand Central’s potential. Why does Central have no compassion to Galatea? What makes this worse is

Unanswered questions. It was never fully explained why Central hid the fact about the spaceship. The only explanation was that it was aiding the hackers that were looking to change Central. But then why was it fighting off hackers earlier?The story falls apart a little here

Final Spoiler that everyone may want to have a look at sooner or later Apparently there was a hint about a sequel from the developers that I never saw. I think the only way that would work really well was if Central turned into a dictator. That’s the remaining potential in the story for me and there are perhaps hints about the dark side of Central. Ofcourse a sequal is completely dependent on sales, how well did this game sell??

For now, I will comment Chapter 7. For me the process of kicking off everybody from the server was very funny. I did like the Get Nuked! game. Black humour suits in this future. I don’t think you can beat Domino without cheating.

And how did you kick off the dancers? Because there are two ways of achieving it.

You can, I believe there’s an achievement for it. I haven’t done it personally but I watch a YouTuber who did

Finished chapter 7 and it was a nice change of pace from the prior chapter. Puzzles were super easy, and figured it all out without getting stuck at all.

One thing that is getting frustrating though is how much conversation there is in the dialogue trees. And some of them are super heavy technical stuff that is tiresome to listen to.  I just replayed Day of the Tentacle, and any conversation with a character usually lasts at most 4 or 5 questions, but here, it just keeps going and going and everyone has something to say.

Ok, that’s because you broke the antenna outside the den. As they are connecting from abroad, they disappear. This is one of the methods.

Cool I didn’t know that What I did was
Block Russia because they won in hockey according to the news. The fans are all Russian so poof they are gone.

Oh, that way it makes sense But it’s kinda frustrating that you can solve it before even realising there is a puzzle. I also spent quite some time with the world map, trying to figure out which way it was related to the VR. Not the best puzzle imho.

I disagree. You have enough hints. The dancers are celebrating a sport victory and they are spilling vodka all over the dance floor. If you look at the news, you see that Russia beated Canada in a hockey match, so you can deduce they are Russian. Therefore, if you block connections from Russia, bye bye dancers…

Also if you ask the girl downstairs about the dancers, she tells you they are celebrating a sports victory. That’s how I figured it out.

Finished chapter 8 and it was fun. I chose to blame councilman Deane, because I thought it to be the right thing to do, even though Ran Shou Man is probably a terrible person. Lying about the explosion did not feel right, and councilman Deane did end up killing Imogen with the explosion. I wonder how this decision will play down the line, or will it be meaningless like saving the suicide bomber from the train earlier.

Seems like now   everything will come to a head collision with both Charlie and Latha going to the same place. Should be exciting

What happened when Councilman Deane was blamed? Because I blamed Ran Shou Man. I’m guessing there’s a very slight difference to one ending.
