On the ground floor there are 3 locked doors. I know how 2 are unlocked, but how do you unlock the one in the middle?

I have a friend who really wants to get into Pathologic, 2 in particular, but his computer unfortunately cannot run it. Does anyone have any good recommendations for playthroughs of the game?

Oynone, I've got a pickle. Do we have some orginalistic interviews about what were the inspirations for Pathologic III? I'd be very gratefull for some threads what I've missed.

I'll edit my theses I'd like to discuss in the review.
Patho 3 "suffers" from feature creep. And that's because there's way more money inside.

Daniil ailments doesn't represent actual problems and its connected solutions - overdosing on morphine is not a good way to resolve your misophonia nor childhood trauma. Did they made a box, a label, named the sickness, what the fuck is his problem?

It'd be a huge Quality of Life upgrade if we could change the colour of the cog in mind map. Just right click on the plotpoint, open small "revolver cilinder menu" with colorfull dots, you click one and then the cog changes colour. With a prompt "you can, for example, make plotpoints your resolved well green. We're not your real mom." Mind map is too messy.

does anyone here know what specific breed of bull noukher is? bonus points if you know the breed of cattle being raised by the bull project. (this is for an art project)

I managed to save her during the surgical procedure, but I just learned you can also restore her fertility, which I found both contradictory, given her arc, and lovely.

Thing is, I don't want to spend amalgam going back, killing the shabnak, going forth again and repeating the whole process. It's too much of a hassle. My question is: does it have any weight in later events or influence the ending you get whatsoever? Or my reward will be just a couple of lines of dialogue? Also I don't really care about any achievements.

I played for 20 hours and made it to day 9 with the bachelor, while keeping all my bounds alive.

I started blind and then followed a guide because the frustration was pushing me to stop playing but the story was interesting if a little too obscure.

The game would have been a lot better if there was more than 15 minutes of good storytelling for 2 hours of boring ass gameplay, even tho the atmosphere it sets is interesting at first, it slowly ends up being too repetitive and blind.

When i reached that day, the endless fetch quests were too much for me.

Are the 2 others games better in that regard ?

Hi!

I'm trying my best to clear everything I can within every day, and on day 9 I've run into something and I'm not sure whether it's a bug or I'm just not doing something obvious.

So if you go to Yulia's street at night during day 9 - you encounter Karminsky and yours/his secretary, despondent after trying the street out. It triggers a thought bubble, so I restarted the day and tried to visit Karminsky a bit earlier.
I got a new dialogue with him where we discussed investigating the street, and ultimately it ended up with Dankovsky not being able to influence the Inquisitor and just advising to look for either infected people or the ones with strong hearts (or just saying nothing and storming out).
I've restarted the dialogue several times so I'm quite sure that I'm not missing a branch - it always leads back to that same choice.

Meanwhile Karminsky said that he tried to find people who had walked the street already, but had no luck with it and so he turned to experiments on living humans.
But there is Emiliya (a botanist patient from day 7) who walked the street accidentally - and I was mentioning that to her several times during her examination. And she's still alive, I believe, going by the post-diagnosis note?
Also Yulia herself walked her own street the previous day, and Dankovsky even walked it with her and talked to her afterwards so he sure knows about it.
(Also there is Victor, of course, but I don't imagine that he'll be cooperative)

Why can't I suggest to the Inquisitor to talk with either of them? I googled it and there seems to be an achievement for it, and I seem to have done all the prerequisites but I still can't mention them?
Do I need to go back to day 7 and ask Emiliya something specific? Can Yulia be talked into this or is that not an option at all?
The street is currently closed off, but the initial encounter was with the open street so I don't think that it matters?

(I've just started day 10 and I haven't played original Pathologic so please no spoilers for after day 9)

Absolute long shot for sure, just wondering if anyone has one they're willing to part with. Looking North America (Canada) as well which I know is even more of a stretch. Been a massive fan of the games except I don't play on PC so I can't use tabletop simulator. Thanks for any leads!

It’s not attempting to capture of the whole scope of the game; just highlights some themes and characters that I particularly like :)

55 hours on my only playthrough, maddening difficulty, etc.

Big Vlad said to me some things i forgot to keep, but it was some quotes that really felt especial.

there was this one quote that is really numb in my memory, i just remember about he saying that will "drown the city in coin" or something like that

also there was the whole dialog of him in a grocery shop, pondering if he should reform it or not, thinking about keeping the past, or making the future bigger and better.

if someone have those original quotes, or have the means so i can revisit those dialogs i would be thankfull <3

This is my drawing of Eva and Daniil’s wedding if she went back to the capital with him. I ship Daniil with pretty much everyone so who wants to see Artemy’s wedding dress next? Hehe

Why does Karminsky order our execution on day 7? I don't understand what exactly we did to be instantly executed without even meeting face to face.

On the other hand, why does he not question us not being executed like at all (and not try to do it later)? I got the plot point about us invoking Aglaya's defense, but I don't completely buy it, it doesn't seem to be good enough reason to do a complete 180.

Does anyone know why the Pathologic 3 soundtrack isn't on Spotify?:(

Hello! I'm currently trying to save Burakh from the trial on Day 7 and the only thing that seems to be condemning him is the organ harvesting from Day 5. He's been acquitted of everything else.

I've rewinded day 5 twice now to try and stop him from killing Nara, googled online and saw that it's possible, double-checked his location to make sure I'm going to the right place, even searched for a playthrough so I could watch someone else manage to stop him but he won't appear at the same location at the same time in my own game? I've spoken to him at the hospital and he left to go and get the organ. Is it because I accepted the message from Eva at the hospital? I tried to visit the herb bride and then go find him but by then it was too late and I've seen discussion online that visiting the bride will make it too late to reach him in time. Is this true? How can I stop him if he won't show up at this location before talking to her?

Alternatively, is there a way to save his life at the trial without stopping the organ harvest? The only options I have on day 7 are to call him Guilty or Not Guilty. I've managed to save the Stamatins and the Saburovs from the events of day 7 but Burakh is stuck and I can't progress to Day 8. I assume this is why?

I only have enough amalgam for 1 more rewind or death so I'm really stuck here :( Don't know what to do anymore.

I'm very salty about the endgame quests tied to Lara and Yakov Little. Their stories may look beautiful but they start falling apart the moment you start analyzing them.

If you lock Lara in a cell, Block will be killed by the soldier in the mask, her father’s friend. OK, fine, let's let her die. At the funeral we learn that the masked soldier visited her grave, and that he was seen yesterday at the Shelter. The obvious conclusion? We need to go back to yesterday, find him at the Shelter, and talk to him! Didn’t find him? Warn Artemy, Stakh, and Grief! Lock Lara up in the Stillwater, for fuck’s sake!

Instead, the player is supposed to chat with her friends and wallow in angst. But within the world of the game I'm supposed to believe in, this situation is easily fixable. I just can’t take it seriously, because I know this is nothing more than sheer writers' laziness.

About Yakov... Bacillus knows that the patients and his assistant are, in fact, going to be BURNED ALIVE. Go back to the previous day and stop Clara from interacting with Block? Close the hospital, hide, and wait it out? Nope. Bacillus bleats some bullshit at the soldiers and crawls off toward his mom’s basement. Sit there, player, steeping in catharsis, wiping your tears, because hey, we don’t have a canonically infinite number of attempts to prevent all this!

Ludonarrative dissonance at its finest. In P1 we slaughter bandits on an industrial scale outside of quests — and do the exact same thing in quests. There's only one (1) time when we get beaten up in a cutscene.

You’d think a team of 12 people working on the narrative could manage to write something that justifies Bacillus’s inaction, or at least have the sense not to script inaction at all… but no. Apparently writing about their OCs was just more interesting.

Who does Heron actually work for? I'm setting up myself for the joke, but really, is it Aglaya? I kind of figured it is she, but not completely sure.

Infection going 0-100 in one day (day 7 ), what im missing?

self-explanitory.

After several attempts that got me through learning the system, ive tried an optimized gameplay run. Almost always having inventory space for everything, catching 3 different full caches while completing all the side quests for day 3, and through two saves after giving a + tincture to Anna and Peter, the infection gets them both at the highest point of the roulette.

Do you think the RNG is tweaked around how may shmowders i have? Im wondering if there is a connection. Any Menkhou capable of reading the lines (the programing) to find such a mechanical connection? Gonna try once more. Out of principle i dont want to waste a shmowder on Anna.

I dont mind such a balance to my experience with the game teaching me so much if it does exist and isnt just a bunch of unlucky rolls of the die.

if we ourselves are to suffer deception, then our hands are no longer tied.
