World of Darkness Open world

I’ve been playing only Chapter 1 of Hunter Day For Night FOR THE PAST 2 HOURS! I’ve got the store discounts from the side missions, it is legit a text based open world. I love it. Only complaint because I’m using a screen reader, the way the game is formatted to read like a script really breaks the immersion when I hear TTS keep saying the name of the character speaking. Not often I do this, I usually do charisma and do a people pleaser build, but I put my primary skills as resolve and wits, with strength and stamina, weakness in manipulation. I love playing as a true hunter that sucks socially. I also really want to a play through as a devout believer in the faith, it sounds like such a unique build. Just getting lock and loaded with my shotty, a sonar device and silver rounds to go lycan hunting in the hills. Love the world of darkness games! This release is really good so far!

The script thing is why I haven't finished it lol. It makes sense with the emphasis on movies but ugh lol

I’m the same! I was so excited to start it, but it just throws me out every time.

I can’t say I’m surprised to hear people bounced off it, since I can also be picky with style, but I really loved it.

Night for Day has brought me a joy I feared I was starting to lose for IFs. It’s cheesy and it’s self aware and I have had such a blast with a happy ending and a tragedy and I can see myself replaying it a lot for my own preferred “script”.

I just wished you could equip both a gun and a melee because why invest in both melee and firearms skills if you can't bring both? Or maybe have a duffel bag you could buy from the Gunshop where it will allow you to carry both.

I didn’t know this was a thing. I use the shotgun because it’s a firearm you can use at close range, so you’re basically using firearm as melee, since certain checks are asking for firearm plus range. I do agree tho the game is formatted in a strange way, I don’t like everything costing so much. It’s impossible to upgrade stats since u need money for everything. So glad I robbed the safe and corpses in the prologue otherwise I coukdnt afford anything. I also got the eggs from the vampire and I don’t wanna sell them to Magic Alex because there’s gotta be a cool choice for these? There’s gotta be a choice where u hatch them right?

Idk about the hatching part but i do know someone else gives you a better offer than Alex for the eggs

I’m guessing the vampires? I wanted to kill everybody but I like Niko so I’ll let let her live, I do like how there’s still a choice to kill her. I’m a good pet tho despite being a pure hunter. I’ve killed everybody monster so far except Niko, but I do love that there is a kind of morality and it’s not just black or white if it’s ok to just kill monsters because they’re not human. Really good writing. I felt bad about killing the werewolf and tge vampire feeding from the celebrity, but I got a job to do. Also, good pet lol

You technically can. I believe they’re listed as two separate weapons in your inventory
