Oof, that release time is midnight Tues/Wed for me. Guess it's Wednesday to finally dive in! So excited.

Edit: I can't time

My first and only playthrough I did a very high Psyche with low motor, physique and medium intelligence

Think for my second playthrough with the Definitive Edition I'm going full blown Muscle head. High Physique and Motoric, no intelligence or psyche xD

Thinking about going extreme id, addiction, instability for the DE playthrough. Shivers, electrochemistry, inland empire, not sure what else. Just make the poor bastard the worst wreck. No one he talks to will ever know if the weird Shivers hints are him picking up on something or just being fucking lost lol. Total opposite of my previous high logic/encyclopedia/perception playthrough.

There doesn't seem to be anyway to pre-order or preload the game on Playstation? That's a bummer, but I'll still buy it ASAP.

Almost bit on this last week since I saw it on discount, but it feels like there's so much coming out this week I won't have time to dive in. With the unending positive buzz though, I've got to give it a try eventually. Hope the additional content is good!

Nothing on PS consoles comes close other than PST Enhanced.

I have that one, i haven't played it yet but one of the reason i got was because i heard the writing is really strong.

I believe i will make a little time for DE first, really looking forward to play it and see the reason of all the buzz.

Can you name the protagonist?

Because this guy definitely looks like a Beauford Cannon.

My GOTY last year. Something special.

I'll just say that a lot of normal gaming notions are not exactly what they seem and things that suck or are annoying are because... that's what they are?
I had a lot of things click for me over time on how the 'skill' system was not a skill system.

Looking forward to playing (and finishing this time) it on PS5. I've got the free update on PC but I think I'm more likely to commit if I play on console, it's been gathering dust waiting for Returnal, and it'll be nice to further support the game.

Looking forward too to new players reactions, a lot of people are about to be completely bowled over I think 😁

Can you brute force your way through problems?

Even when its a wordy CRPG with a focus on dialog, I still like to find a way to intimidate, punch or evil asshole my way through things.

Not all the time of course, but there are several situations where you can or need to use authority and intimidation and sometimes physical force will do it. These will still be rolls though, so nothing is guaranteed. Just a higher chance of success when you have the right stats, thoughts and items.

As an example from the fairly beginning, you need to get past this one dude, you can sneak to find alternate route, you can find a keycard, he can let you pass with just talking (though there's a non-monetary price for it), or you can kick his ass.

Waiting for the standard physical edition to go up for this...can't believe the vendor started with just an LE...kind of shady.

Really looking forward to this whenever that is!

Why was there a recast? That moment when you first meet him was definitely a "wtf am I playing?!" Moment for me.

The actor who played Cuno, Dot Major, is in a bad called London Grammar and they're putting out an album next month. Also, he played another character, and he seemed to have scheduling issues to play these parts again.

Excited for more people to play this game! It's a masterpiece.

Purchased on steam, just waiting on this update to go live. Glad I waited on finally playing this game. Watched Cohh play a little bit this morning and this looks right up my alley.

I own it on Steam but never played it (it's one of my wife's favourite games in years though) and I'm looking forward to playing it on PS5 with her watching.

Since it's not even getting the typical pre-order state of PSN entry and only a direct playable version, I'll hope it maybe gets available a little bit early by accident. Wouldn't be the first time. Maybe via webstore, let's hope the internet detectives are working in the next 20 hours 🤞.

So, i assume the writing in this game is excellent right?
I don't know if there could be some piece of interactive fiction or some other obscure game that tops it, but in my experience it is literally the best written game I've ever played. It's far more ambitious on that end than anything else that I've ever seen. Planescape Torment, which is the most similar game I can think of, has a comparable abundance of text, but it's definitely not as well written.

Have they said how the upgrade works on Steam?

If I install the base game today will it patch it to Final Cut? Or will the base game in my library disappear and be replaced with FC? Or will it just be a separate entry to my library?
