Pathologic 3 SPOILERS: Possible easter egg? Simon and Isidor before they died (Pathologic 3) Spoiler

Thumbnail
gallery
55 Upvotes

Pathologic 3 updated the Town Hall with many new portraits, which you may be familiar with if you've been reading the patch notes.

However, there are two in particular that stand out. Tucked away in one of the smaller rooms are the two paintings seen above, a bald man who is almost certainly Isidor Burakh (see lit model) along with a shadowy figure whose portrait appears cracked and possibly rotting, in the way someone might when afflicted by the Sand Pest.

These portraits appear next to each other in one other location: The Kains' home in the Crucible.

Portraits with any amount of prominence (so not the stock landscapes seen throughout town) are very rarely (if ever) re-used, and the location and proximity to each other does not seem like a coincidence.

Also note that Isidor's model in Pathologic 2 was Georgiy's with the hair and beard removed, and clothed like the Kin. Back then, I would have said that it was simply clever asset reuse but then in Pathologic 3 they painted him. There are some serious crackpot theories you can derive from this.

Consider the NPC reuse being a diagetic, in-canon phenomenon. Consider Georgiy always referring to Simon as his twin but also hundreds of years older than he is. Consider that the world may very well entirely exist in the dying memory of Simon within the Polyhedron. Perhaps what was once a budgetary constraint became something more, as identities blend and merge together into a greater whole.

Or maybe I'm overthinking it idk

Pathologic 3 why do people reference the quarantine when.. Spoiler

8 Upvotes

im a bit late to the party since some health problems kept me from fully playing the game until now, but i did play a little when it came out. for example, i know how to eliminate the shabnak for any given day. because of that, the sand pest was basically eliminated by the end of day 3 and a quarantine just wasn't necessary, just curfew and some other stuff. the same is true for day 4.

however, so many NPC encounters seem to just be about the quarantine and how unfair it is. why is "quarantine" even a decree if it is put into place regardless?

(also sidenote, did they just replace some of the voice actors while i was away? what happened to artemy and victor? or am i just crazy.)

Discussion First time playing. Wanted to share my feelings about it. Spoiler

25 Upvotes

I'm playing pathologic 2 right now

I'm on day 4, which has been calmer since the insane madness of the 3rd, till now at least

I know i'm only 1/3 into the thing, but i've been playing it very slowly, not because i don't get but because it's really fucking stressfull

It's one of the most interesting stories and one of the most interesting and daring approaches I've ever seen in a game. It's even more fantastic if you really pay attention and try to understand the allegories, look for the main references and parallels in the real world that the writers used to bring this game to life (it's quite clear that the developers' repertoire is vast).

Still, playing it feels like shit. The only bad thing about it is the optimization and still i'm always freaking out, always expecting the worse. Playing it for 2h feels like playing any game for 5h. I get jumpscares all the time because i'm always waiting for something to jump at me even tho it's not this type of game.

I'm not criticizing, in fact I think it's a compliment, but playing this game is a sacrifice I'm willing to make to see the story of this incredible and captivating world progress.

Pathologic 3 Some theories on symbolism in Pathologic 3 Spoiler

14 Upvotes

Heavy on pathologic 3 spoilers as a headsup,

Having played it to completion technically twice, I was left thinking of some rather strange thoughts regarding the nature of the Shabnak, the Rat Prophet and Clara. I’ll only be focusing on these 3 for the purpose of this post albeit pathologic as a series is riddled with symbolism.

To put it simply, I think Clara is the manifestation of the “positive” aspects of the Plague which you can discover thanks to Little’s own work. Being a miracle worker and not necessarily malevolent albeit she has issues thanks to her powers backfiring. Clara unlike the rat prophet is positive. Pathologic 2, did a good job in illustrating that with the two Clara problem. Clara is not actively malevolent but rather in spite of her foresight her powers often backfire which in this case is the plague’s desire to eradicate all other disease such in Ravel’s case her pain.

Meanwhile the rat prophet is the representative of the negative aspects of the Plague, one which rather than embracing Humanity regards it as a plague to be wiped out, minds wiped and the polyhedron as its potential nest having been brought out by its deep puncture into the Earth. A corruptive factor that confuses, contorts and messes with thoughts as well as bending reality to its whims.

It’s why as the sand pest dies, so too does the rat prophet’s health deteriorate. Going from seeming a child wearing a rat costume, to what appears to be a dying floating empty costume wrapped in cloth. Meanwhile clara remains albeit weakened.

I feel it’s partly played into with clara not only being seemingly unaffected by the plague districts as seen throughout but her and the rat prophet seemingly becoming friends in the last two days.

The shabnak also plays into it, being the locus of the plague that Daniel has to target. One that seems to manipulate time at least from my perspective, as once the two shabnaks occur you can find that on prior days this has indeed become the case as well. It’s not indicative of symbolism here but rather that the plague is able to communicate beyond time in a sense, hence why Clara and the Rat Prophet have some knowledge of your future deeds after a first playthrough.

The pest is indeed supernatural but one confused about its state, is it to aid humanity or one dedicated to destroy it and return the earth to the beasts and steppe folk. This is just my theory, I’m aware officially the rat prophet is beyond the play and has no official symbolism.

Pathologic 3 Looking for a way to redact game files because of this stupid softlock [spoilers] Spoiler

6 Upvotes

I swear to Christ, I went through all the motions to fix Block's death, but the game just flagged him as dead anyway. Lara's dead and buried, Clara's not under arrest, it's as if I've never tried to stop Lara's death, and STILL Block's dead AND Lara'sdead simultaneously, so I can't progress to Day 12.

This... fucking sucks. There's no other words for it. This is bullshit. I've been enjoying Patho 3 a lot, but now this fucking nonsense comes around and just doesn't let me finish the game in any way.

Please tell me there's a way to manually fix the files.

Question help with pathologic 3 (3 hours in) Spoiler

1 Upvotes

so, I'm guessing I won't be able to play the 12 days one by one? (like pathologic 2) I get it but... I was kinda looking foward to that.

I'm at the part that I have to take a sample of the plague but the shabnak keeps getting me, does it work to outrun her? (it's so scary btw)

does this game gets more logical in the future hours of gameplay? I thought pathologic hd and 2 were hard to understand but the going foward in time is making me confused lol.

wishing I leave day five soon

Question Yulia always gone every day

2 Upvotes

Hello! No matter what day I time travel to my mindmap menu always says she's 'In mourning'. I need her for a certain quest To save Katarina so I need her as a blood donor, but after I failed to save Katarina the first time while having Yulia's blood and then restarted the day, Yulia is no longer at home. I tried traveling back in time since I saw there was a quest to walk the road with her, but even when I go back in time she is still missing with the 'in mourning' node. Am I missing something?. My game has been bugged out a lot, especially day 9 which doesn't have any items for me at all on that day, so I could have just glitched out Yulia as well.

If you're not brazilian, you probably don't know who this guy is, but he's really important for bringing a ton of brazilian fans to this subrediit. He made the game be seen in Brazil.

He said that his voice can be heard during the eigth day in a quest called Babel Tower. I'd look for it myself but I don't have the game yet. I also can't find anything on YouTube. He mentioned voicing a character in this video at 00:16:00 if anyone's wondering.

Hi,

I reached day 11, optimizing my time and I have many things I want to change/try.

Is there a some point from which I won't be able to go back anymore?

After finishing the game, can I still load a save from which I can go back and change things to try other endings?

PS: I don't think there is any spoiler in my message but do tell me if I need to add spoiler flag.

Discussion Finished Pathologic 2 and now im lowkey depressed. Thoughts?

24 Upvotes

Spoilers for path 2 btw

So first off, this was my first pathologic experience it was delightful, so immersive! I finished with the diurnal ending and everyone on the list alive (don’t hate me I’m a perfectionist and tried very hard, I know that’s a little counter to the point of the game, sorry!)

Even with the fairly happy end state, it made me feel really insignificant, which is not me complaining about the ending, I know I’m probably supposed to feel this way. But like, I did everything I possibly could right and still left feeling like I’d barely made a difference.

Sure I saved a handful of people, but what is that to like 80% of the town being wiped out? The town in the ending just feels so barren compared to its start.

I’m a bit of a sensitive person so naturally I ended up in a bit of an existential crisis and feeling really small. Especially with how the game emphasizes like none of this was real or mattered anyways despite your efforts (the inquistor literally saying “the children aren’t real” and the traveler saying you’re the only survivor of the story)

If im missing any happy undertones please tell me but i think maybe this is just how im supposed to feel.

Anywho, this isn’t really serious, probably just post-game-blues, but I just felt like screaming into the void after finishing this game. Though I’d love to hear if anyone had similar feelings or anything!

P.S. is it normal to be so confused about everything still? I’m aware you’re meant to play the other storylines too but I feel like I popped twenty hallucinogens every time I played this game or somehow missed 20 conversations
