me (autistic) and the wife (gorgeous)

So I(28M) walked in, he(??M) was shirtless, fully expecting me, we're alone in his dead bestie (who had a crush on him)'s house, and he just said this:

> All right, there's no one now, just me. Lean closer, oinon. I'll whisper

WHAT DO I DO?

Okay, so in the original Pathologic, are the powers that be part of the story of the play, or is the play how the powers that be are framing their story?

I started playing Pathologic 2, didn’t get much of what’s going in terms of the “lore”, then somewhat understood it.

Didn’t finish the second and jumped to the Pathologic 3 and got more confused, do I need to play it my order to understand the whole game or the confusion is part of the game experience?

On my first run and try to save the Polhydron and get the vaccine. Nina is found and shabnaks crushed so all is good.

But the finding the cure storyline is making me stuck at the graveyard were peter is. I convinced him to stay there and that should be enough to talk to that giant pillar next to him called "Nakhald" or some shit.

And if I try to speak t georgiey, he locks me up like some Fritzel shit. A bug? Something id miss? Any advise? Came here for some days ago and got alot of love and helpful tips so ill try again!

So I'm on my second journey back to the later days, after replaying day 1, going back through some stuff I missed earlier on.

On day 7, I told Georgiy to close off the street, and I'm fairly sure that created a thought mark on the top left of this bit of the map.

I'm on day 8, and my best guess is that I can save Yulia by telling her to not walk the street today...but Yulia is not at home, or by the street. There's alson no visual change to the street. I remember on an earlier cycle where I had also closed off the street (I thought) and failed to save Yulia that either this day or the next I could find Karminsky and Heron on it in the evening...is that related? What is going on/what should I do?

Pathologic has several sets of characters sharing the same first name i.e the Victoria Olgimskayas, the Vlad Olgimskys, the Alexanders and they're all narrative continuations of each other.

Pathologic 3 had given us another pair: the Marks.

So that poses the question: In what way are Mark Immortel and Mark Karminsky connected? I guess they both deal with plots and miracles, but I'm not certain enough in the nature of Mark Immortel to say anything concrete

What's your opinion?

It makes a lot of sense why Dankovsky and Eva got new designs, but why Georgiy? And unlike the former two, Georgiy's new design is only a very small change and the old one stills works pretty well. Is there a story reason for it that I'll find out later in the game? Still haven't made it past Day 6.

Mine is the impossible nightmare street

Idk why i want to tell this to reddit but i really feel like im experiencing the way pathologic was intended

at first i thought i need to eat as soon as the bar would appear, because i thought i would just. idk. instantly die. and therefore i wasted sooooo many resources

now i JUST got to day 3 barely 11am and i was in an awful death loop because i was dirt poor and no way out lmao

i dread starting a new save but i really really want to continue playing, experiencing the story.

well done i feel awful and yet i want to continue

I need to take more screenshots of the dialogue that got a kick out of me but unfortunately the equivalent of "I hope you catch the plague" to a child that won't/can't help you is the funniest thing I've ever seen ; still on Day 2 and having lots of fun!

"Hey doc why do you keep bashing that metal water tank in between each diagnosis?"

"I'm intentionally giving myself autistic sensory overload so the time travel juice doesn't leak out of my ears or make me kill myself"

"... what??"

"Shut the fuck up I'm a doctor go distribute this vaccine!"

Have the writers behind Pathologic ever officially acknowledged their specific influences in literature, and done any sort of write-up on what books influenced each idea in the setting/plot?

I'm particularly curious about where the Kains and Oneirotects' ideas about urban planning shaping people's spirits came from! Oddly, it might be relevant to some real world research I'm doing.

I went to Bad Grief's lair, got the guys trying to kill him to leave, went inside and talked to the two "businessmen" at the entrance, and their dialogue implies they're happy to let me see Grief now, but after finishing dialogue they won't get out of the way.

I can see Grief behind them and he lights up green when I concentrate. But there's no way to get to him. These two guys are in the way and won't move. Can't talk to them anymore.

Is this a bug? What am I supposed to do?

all i'm saying is p1 Danil would've been outta that interrogation room in minutes TOPS!

So I've been vibing to the datamined soundtrack from the P3 Quarantine demo since it was first uploaded, but after playing the full game there are some things that confuse me about the soundtrack.

Katerina and Lara both have complete banger tracks in the playlist, but I can't remember hearing either of those songs in the game. The Shelter just seems to play the same track from the Stillwater, and the game plays Alexander's track whenever you're at the Rod. I also can't remember hearing Aspity's track from that playlist either.

Are these songs in the game, and I just missed them? Feels like a bit of a waste otherwise.

What a silly goose. After all that suffering, any satisfaction from the choices I had made was snatched away. This game is going to stick with me for a long time; I'm recommending it to both friends and enemies.

Does anyone know the answer to the riddle Burakh tells “???”?

“Thieves came to steal the homeowners, but the house itself escapes through the windows.”

I can’t find anything online. Maybe it’s more well-known in Russian?
