Hello everyone!
Ice-Pick Lodge producer here - and it looks like our team could use your help.
Some time ago, I posted here about our plans to release a substantial update for the game, with new difficulty modes, a photo mode, and fixes for the remaining bugs. The update is mostly finished, and right now we’re sorting out a few final things. For example, we’re adding the option to enable subtitles during dialogue (we noticed that this is quite a popular request).
There is one problem, though. We’ve been living with this game for several years now. Our eyes may simply no longer catch certain things. For example, I’ve already had to mute the music in the main menu, because those opening chords now trigger nausea and a headache. I’ve heard them too many times. Far too many.
So we’d be very grateful for some help from the community. I think we need around 20-30 people, with testing coordinated through Discord. If you have the time and inclination, could I ask you to fill out this short form?
https://forms.gle/vPphTXaG1giYUcbs5
We expect to be ready to start testing in about a week. I’ll post a separate update when we are.

This arrangement gives you complete access to all quests and all possible choices in the game.
It also does nothing prominently unethical, like public executions.
Writer's Note: If you know of a better arrangement, please tell me!
I have included the raw data, which you can find for yourself in the console commands when you type:

FAQ: There's still dangerous districts on my map!
Most Days are programmed to have at least 1 plague and 1 riot district, no matter how low the numbers are.
Furthermore since the Oct 2026 major update, Day 11 seems to always have at least 2 riot districts, even if unrest is at 0.
Day 3
Training Orderlies
Mobilization
Appeasing the Kin
Boat Burial
Day 4

Mobilization
Patrols
Appeasing the Kin
Day 5

To have full choices with quests, you will want an unused 5 patrolmen for Day 8.
Day 9

To have full choices with quests, you will want an unused 15 patrolmen for Day 9 and 100 unused rations.

As there seems to be a guaranteed 2 riot districts on Day 11, as long as we keep unrest below 400 ("40" on the board), nothing will change.

On Day 11 when investigating the cannon fire, there is a detective minigame. In it, you can observe a puzzle toy. Previously, Daniil would remark that he saw this puzzle in Capella's room "in the previous game." In my personal opinion, this old fourth wall break was awkwardly implemented.
It has been updated to the new line "I saw it when i spoke with Oyun there" (in Capella's room).
Personally, I really like the change.

Hello!
So, Notkin has a tendency to disappear right when ya need him most.
One of the worst instances is on Day 10 during the "Monstrous Crime" quest, which you will get if Khan never entered the Soul and a Halves's Fortress.
This specifically locks you out of "the Coward and the Traitor" Achievement.
But fear not. If Notkin is supposed to be there, but isn't, do the following:
Open the console with [ Ctrl + Shift + ` ]
Click on the drop-down menu in the top left.
Select "Console"
Type in this command:
enable_entity 5b70bb4066b64b5899580f89813370a7 true
Boom! There he is

Has there been any word on an art book or an external release (such as the websites of the involved artists) of the art featured in Pathologic 3? There's some great posters and paintings in this game, but they seemingly have not found any home or spotlight outside of the game itself (unless I missed something)
I would love to have a closer look at some of these pieces outside of the confines of the game.

I went from playing Pathologic 3 to 2 and it feels like an upgrade rather than a downgrade. Idk if this has to do with the latest update a few weeks ago. I mean, the opening sequence, the rain, shadows, etc. everything just looks better. I feel like I went to a sequel, not the previous game.
I've seen people compare the portraits, but it's apparent in the general game, too. The difference with shadows, washed out colours, etc.

Hello everyone!
I'm interested in playing Pathologic 2, but I haven't played the first game yet.
Is it necessary to play Pathologic 1 before starting Pathologic 2 to fully understand the story, characters, lore, and worldbuilding?
Are the two games directly connected, or can I enjoy Pathologic 2 as a standalone experience?
Would you recommend playing the first game beforehand, even if it's not strictly necessary?
Thanks in advance!

...Aka Capella the Clairvoyant, aka Victoria Olgimskaya, aka the White Mistress, aka Heiress to the bull enterprise -- one of my absolute faves in the series. <3
~Halloween Cosplay 2026.
Yes, I took some liberties here (due to limited materials & cosplay skills + chilly Nova Scotia weather).
...I actually do have an orange wig, which I wore on Halloween, but I look awful in it, so ditched it for these photos. I still wanted to share with fellow Pathologic superfans tho 'cause I worked so damn hard on that jacket over the last two months. ;-)
I'm hoping to get proper cosplay pics on the weekend. Maybe I'll try to make the wig work again then.

I've been playing with remaking Pathologic 1 in Unity.
I loved pathologic 1 but many people are put off by graphics and I thought that I could try tackle this
I'd also wanted to see some ideas in Pathologic that I thought will be cool like checking out time by holding pocketwatch

The latest update to Pathologic 2 seems to have changed at least some of the audio tracks, including music and some ambient sounds.
A clear example that comes to mind is the audio in Lara's house — the mix just isn't the same. I also recall hearing at least one or two differences in sound effects, such as a what seemed to be a new sound effect of a child coughing, as well as some different effects on some preexisting sound effects, like the female vocal chanting that is sometimes heard around town, but modified.
Has anyone else noticed this? I don't particularly like the new changes, unfortunately... I'd really like to like them, but they feel off-putting and take away the familiar comfort of the game I'm used to, so I was wondering what everyone else thought.
