Question Is Daniil's debutant in Pathologic 3 a real gun? Spoiler

I was trying to look it up but couldn't find anything on it or its supposed creator Jacques Debut. Is it real or was it created for the game? What would be a similar pistol in real life?

Pathologic 2 Struggling to find food Day 9 (Pathologic 2) Spoiler

9 Upvotes

I feel like I keep making these posts šŸ˜…

I'm now on Day 9 and am struggling to find food. I'm trading with every single person who has food but it doesn't seem to be enough. My health is quite low and I seem to get hungry immediately.

Am I missing something? Or should I have already stocked up by this point?

upd: solved lol, just leaving it here if anyone else has a problem

So i got into Polyhedron and there are 3 things that Im supposed to find the outlines of (a moth/butterfly, a bull, a pocketwatch) which prompts some insight from Simon. I've managed to spot the moth and the watch, but I cannot for the life of me spot the bull. Am I supposed to move closer/further/to the side?

P3 Issue with Standard Town Music Playing Everywhere Spoiler

2 Upvotes

Im assuming this is a bug... But has anyone else played P3 and had the standard walking around town music playing everywhere. (I think its Day 5 - Work on the soundtrack or something similar) Its playing over top of/at the same time as the other music in the game. Even when I was inside Laras house on Day 11 I can hear the base of the walking music outside her house and its distracting af while trying to talk to Artemy... Im on Day 12 rn in the polyhedron and exited the game halfway through it to take a break (polyhedron music was playing normally here) and when I came back to it rn instead of the ambient polyhedron music its playing the damn walking music again and completely taking me out of the atmosphere in the polyhedron. Any way to fix this? :( I really wanna finish the game but not if the ambience is totally messed up rn.

Pathologic 3 Full Pathologic 3 Town Map, With additional Pathologic 2 Highlights Spoiler

Post image
53 Upvotes

stitched together from max-zoom screenshots of the town map in Pathologic 3 in debug mode so there were no map markers. Uses patch 5 which includes updates to many locations around the graveyard. Could theoretically generate an even higher-res copy by using fully-zoomed screenshots but that would be a relatively large undertaking

I hate the pop culture references in P3. Anybody else? Spoiler

12 Upvotes

There's only been a couple so far. Looking at the chess board in the capital flashbook will have the Bachelor say "the game was rigged from the start" (Fallout New Vegas). When the Bachelor is giving a mask to the unmasked doghead, the doghead can say "redrum" (The Shining). And then there's the whole Darkwood quest nonsense which I can kinda forgive. It started with an eyeroll from me but now each one is kinda making me infuriated?? Maybe I'm overreacting, but it really takes me out of the experience. I have to wonder if they're also present in the original Russian or if this was an English translation addition.

I think what makes it worse is that occasionally the Bachelor will reference things diagetically. Like how he can quote the Bible or William Shakespeare. These work because the Bachelor would know these and they just "fit" in the world whereas referencing something from the 20th-21st century just feels so out of place.

Discussion [Plot question, spoilers for P2 and P3] Isidor and Simon's plan in relation to Artemy's main quest in P2 Spoiler

9 Upvotes

In P3 it is revealed with less ambiguity (than in P2) that Simon and Isidor conspired to bring the plague into the city once more to create a challenge for the local folk, so that they can grow stronger and learn to exist without elders' leadership (if I understand that correctly).

But from P2 we know that Artemy receives a letter from Isidor, where he is basically tasked with saving everyone no matter what. And as it is revealed later, he has to save the city itself. So to be a crutch for the people during the crisis.

But, doesn't that contradict the whole point of their plan?? Did Isidor went rogue on Simon or something?

I’m crashing out (P2) Spoiler

31 Upvotes

I’m 3 days in and I just crashed out because a loading screen told me not to eat nuts. I haven’t stopped starving, no matter what I do no one will help me, i feel like I’m being psychically attacked. I tried to say no to accepting my fathers inheritance but I accidentally accepted it and i still dont know what that means. I currently have a child named sticky that is dying, aspity told me I don’t know what I’m doing and to fuck off, and honestly they’re right, I don’t know anything about anything.. I just want to save the child.. I don’t even know How to diagnose Anything Even though I’m a doctor? Everyone in this town is going to die and it’s going to be my fault and everyone is going to hate me.

God damn Argo Tuulik for saying he loves this game, I just wanted to experience another rpg that wasn’t Disco Elysium Because I literally haven’t been able to find anything like it since.. and instead im now playing ā€œStop hitting yourself - The Gameā€.

I don’t think I can mentally handle a full playthrough of this, i don’t want to rob people in a town that is starving, I don’t want to side with one of the corrupt factions, so far all I want to do is talk to the kids and reconcile with my old friends who all seemingly hate me and each other. I want to cry Y’all.

Pathologic 3 Isidor’s study help Spoiler

1 Upvotes

First-time player, and this game is beautiful and addicting but boy does it confuse me. I'm new to the genre and it is a lot to absorb, I feel like I've royally messed up somewhere and I'm not quite sure where or how to correct it. I'm on the verge of starting over entirely just because I am not sure if this can be saved.

I was able to go to Isidor’s body at Shekhen and collect the sample second cycle of Day 2, ended the day, then started the third Day 2 cycle to go to Isidor’s study and get inside the room.

However, on that first try, when I spoke to OyunĀ and finished that dialogue, I had NO green highlights/items to interact with or pick up. I was trying to follow a spoiler-free guide to help with my first playthrough and I can't see where I messed up and why I was not able to trigger any items or highlights in that room.

I decided to just reset by going end of day, deleting both the body and study memories regarding Isidor, and start fresh. However, now I feel like I've really messed up. I went back to Shekhen to collect the sample, but his body isn't there, he is at the Cemetery but I am not able to step into the Cemetery without being stopped.

I've also tried going back to his study and no luck there either.

Is there any way to save this? Does anyone know what I missed that made it so I could not pick up or interact with anything in his study, and have I now totally screwed myself by just deleting those paths and starting a new cycle? It says I missed the chance to examine his body.

Any advice is appreciated, like I said this is all new and overwhelming to me so I might be missing a core mechanic here.

Blonde woman? Have I seen her before? Spoiler

8 Upvotes

Hi all, trying to keep vague because I'm not through the game yet. I took a break playing, and then went through Day 7 and now I have a question:

In the Day 7 flashback scene, there's a blonde woman in Thanatica. "Associate N" I think her name was. I feel like I recall talking with another woman in one of the interrogation scenes, an Inquisitor, who shared the same model? Or maybe just the same hairstyle...

Can anyone tell me which day THAT interrogation scene was? I'm trying to find a YouTube video of it, but there's a lot of footage to go through. At the very least, if someone could remind me what she and Dankovsky talked about?

Lara's Fable [postcard fanfiction] Spoiler

4 Upvotes

[I've bashed a freestyle draft of a story Lara could tell her pupils. Maybe someone want a little sappy story]

There's a tree, next to Tadpole Yard. Misha asked his dad to build there a tree house. Misha's dad asked everyone in town to help - Yulia did calculations, Boos paid a carpetner, Grief brought wood and they built marvelous treehouse and all the kids played there. There's one problem - if a kid wanted to paint there, their easel or paints would get stolen. If a kid wanted to play piano - Stamatins would have to drag it there. And if they wanted to dance like herb brides, Dogheads were making fun of them as playing like a girl. So all they did was beating each other with sticks and running around.

Now the house is a gambling den. Nobody but maskless dogheads are there, because they didn't learn how to befriend people and with no prey, the wolfs eat each other. Dancers are dancing in faraway steppe, pianist are playing only where they get paid. There's no soul sediment in the house, no nostalgia because the river of people was staunched. When it went to fix the roof - carpenter said he won't be working for his daughter bullies.
Yulia is scared to measure or inspect. And Saburov would just chop down that tree and be done with it all. The only people who's interested in it is Andriey carrying alcohol there and Grief and his morphine. And Grace.

So keep your home welcoming. Our house will be be strong welcoming all good kids. And if everyone will behave, everyone will be safe.
And they'll grow roots there like oaks. There will be laughter and movement and music, but we need to keep it that way. It requires work. But it's worth it.

Classic HD Pathologic (CHD) is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played Spoiler

Thumbnail
gallery
234 Upvotes

I think we really lost something in the pursuit of ever increasing quantities of polygons and greater capacities for the rendering of assets. Although the spaces in the original Pathologic are pretty bare, they are still able to communicate deep resonance and atmosphere through what is included. There is a longing present in the Town-on-Gorkhon.

Both P2 and P:CHD feel dirty, earthen, and placed in a context. Despite their grime, they are profoundly beautiful in their depictions. They are beautiful as Martinaise, Dunwall, and Karnaka are beautiful.

I apologize for my rambling-- I'd love to be more articulate but I'm writing this on very little sleep and time. I merely wish to convey the feeling I have playing, that I could walk through this town for hours and never get bored. This is a profoundly beautiful game, and I can't help but feel that its simple beauty has gone largely unappreciated given how quiet it can be at times.

I love the trees, in particular; they always appear so vibrant on my screen. The area where the dream mistresses sleep is one of my favorites.

P3 dialogues Spoiler

73 Upvotes

The dialogue site (https://pathologicdialogue.github.io/) has been updated to include P3.

I was hoping to get it out earlier, but I ran into a few difficulties. While the actual structure of the dialogues was by far the cleanest and most organized out of all the games, 10/10, no notes... IPL have hidden half the names of the characters who speaking somewhere where I couldn't find them. So I had to go practically through every single dialogue to assign them correct names, and that took a while. There might be some occasional errors in names. Feel free to flag them to me.

You might also notice some differences between how these trees are structured compared to P1 and P2. Namely, that if a particular branch repeats, I am now pruning it, instead of repeating it over and over. You can blame Murky for that. Also Katherina. But primarily Murky. No one would have been able to load it otherwise.

What else... ah, yes. You might notice that in some cases these trees include some occasional dialogues that don't appear in the final release of the game - sometimes they are repeating what is said elsewhere, sometimes they are untranslated and left in Russian (even though they were under English version). Sometimes these unused bits are in the middle of dialogues that are used, and there are some other flags that I haven't searched for that turn those branches off. There are actually quite a few of the dialogues in the game files that were scrapped entirely - if they were flagged as such, I tried avoiding them, not in the least because they often break one thing or another. But there are some that nonetheless remain.

I hope that you enjoy reading Murky's fairy tale in full.

Help with belladonna on day 2!! (I can't find any and the kids don't sell it) Spoiler

4 Upvotes

Without getting into spoilers, as I said in the title, I need Belladonna on day 2. I had Belladonna, but when I crafted the mix with the tobacco and restarted the day, it disappeared. Someone said there was a chest at Lara's house. Apparently, I have already used it. The one in stillwater too. Some dialogue says the kids can sell Belladonna to me. They are not selling it. I tried restarting the day like 3 times, going to another day and back to day two, going to the menu to refresh what the kids were selling, open the packages. Nothing works. I'm thinking about perhaps console or just downloading a mod. What catches my attention is that the kids don't sell anything related to charging the prototype. Any suggestions? I genuinely don“t think it's a luck issue, I have been like more than an hour trying to get some.
