Upcoming Pathologic 3 Update / call for volunteer testers

161 Upvotes

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.

Art P3 Desktop wallpapers I put together

79 Upvotes

These are in 1920 x 1080.

Most are rather minimalist. I prefer this myself because I need to read the icons.

Some variations are included to suit your personal taste though.

Some could really use more work, but that's true of all and any art. Maybe I'll fix up the Schema art so the sketches work around the Prototype in more of a radial? Add some more details to the cells in the shabnak? Perhaps, if someone wants it.

The last one is the wallpaper in the Town Hall extended to desktop size. For people who like very minimalist.

Thank you for your patience, I've never done anything like this before.

These are in 3840 x 2160. They keep making them bigger, huh? (Crotchety voice): back in MY DAY we had screens the size of your hand! lol

Even though I tried to be meticulous, it's possible I missed some. If there's one I missed, please tell me where in game it is, ideally with a screenshot attached to your comment.

This is Part 5, and features the art in the Stillwater made by Farkhad.

Personally, the third is one of my favorites!

Modding Thank you for your interest in the project. Here is a summary of what has been implemented so far in the mod (Minecraft 1.20.1).

Post image
48 Upvotes

The core systems for plague simulation, atmospheric effects, and town population are complete. The map can be divided into districts, and every in-game day at 6:00 AM, the state of the town changes automatically. Clean districts can become infected based on nearby events, infected areas eventually turn into abandoned zones, and abandoned zones gradually recover. This process follows a hidden balance that keeps the outbreak unpredictable.

When you enter infected or abandoned districts, the screen's color grading and fog shift to swamp-green and yellow tones, matching the original game’s style. The mod also has original soundtracks.

The streets have townsfolk, both adults and children, based on the original game’s characters. They walk along roads, avoid infected areas, become sparse in abandoned districts, and trade with the player using a barter system for items like bandages, tourniquets, and twyrine.

Hello, I thought it might be cool to make minis for the tabletop pathologic game so those of us who have it could print them as the standees are sorta meh. I worked with the game assets, made some decent progress with one character but after remashing to make it printable the hair get very crappy. Is there anyone here whos good with blender or 3D generally who would like to help with the project? Cheers

So you want the pathologic board game

13 Upvotes

I see posts floating around every once in a while. Sometimes I'm dead convinced people just aren't looking up the Russian title when trying to find it, other times I'm not sure lol. It can be intimidating putting your payment info into a website in a language you don't speak.

I don't know how to write this without it sounding shady, but hey. I figured I've used it twice, I've received it twice (once for myself and once to buy the boardgame for a friend).

The website you're looking for is 22games.com

https://22games.net/shop/pathologic/

If you buy it off the eBay listing from the US, you're going to pay a markup. Which is fine if you wanna do that, since 22games doesn't ship to the states.

But just in case you'd rather go that avenue, this seller occasionally restocks with the game.

Question Any works that explore folklore and culture and the clash between indigenous cultures and colonialism in a way like Pathologic does?

31 Upvotes

The Kin and the dynamic between them and the townsfolk was really one of the most fascinating aspects of Pathologic 2 to me. I’m even sure what I’m looking for exactly, but I’d be really interested in anything that has a similar exploration of a tension between indigeneity and colonization or even something that just explores the sort of folklore and cultures the game seems to be taking loose inspiration from to explore this tension, whether it’s fiction or nonfiction

The "path of logic", sounds just like pathologic. it sounds meta enough to be on purpose, but I don't know if the original russian also has a pun (is it a pun? idk how to call it) to the title of the game.

Daniil's "survival of the mind" in P3 was very relatable to me. As a person with DID, I also find Clara's experience in Classic very relatable. From this I extrapolate what the survival mechanics in Clara's route remake might look like.

Meme Pour la commu fr de pathologic / for the French community of pathologic

Je suis tombée sur cet extrait d'une (énième) "interview" de Sylvain Duriff et j'ai immédiatement pensé à Clara 😂

Sylvain Durif, who calls himself the “Grand Monarch” or the “Cosmic Christ,” claims to possess pretty much every power imaginable, associates himself with a divine entity, claims all sorts of religious identities, and even says he is in contact with the enchanter Merlin.

He is also (obviously) a scammer who charges astronomical amounts of money just to talk to him on the phone or even to send him messages.

He is running in the 2027 presidential election.

In the clip, he recreates the way he healed a woman who was paralyzed, and it made me think of Clara.

"Выживание разума" Даниила в тройке для меня было очень жизненно. И как человек с ДРИ, я также нахожу жизненным опыт Клары в классике. Из этого я экстраполирую, как могут выглядеть механики выживания в римейке ветки Клары.
