Especially funny when Kim is one of the Moralist reps. Although, he is disillusioned with the Moralintern and is actually a decent person who doesn't try to use or gaslight you, unlike Joyce or "Sunday Friend".

Moralism in DE is both political ideology and religion, I always got the feeling Kim is like culturally moralist in the sense that people consider themselves to be culturally christian

Ah, so he's like a well-meaning liberal that doesn't understand communism and is not interested in politics, but just wants the best for themselves and people? I didn't really get what he was supposed to be politically in the game since he didn't talk about it much except that he obviously hates racism, being a victim of it, but a moderate moralist makes sense. If so, it was a great idea to put them in the game, especially in the present era of capitalist realism, because I bet that's probably most people out there. They just want to keep their head down and do their job, and are generally nice and polite while doing it.

Communism is built off of friendship, so this tracks.

Sadly I still have not gotten Kim to really like me, or let me in his room.

How am I this queer and still not enough for Kim? How? Do I need to be more into machines? Do I have to win at pinball?

I don't know if this question was rhetorical but Kim likes it when you make level-headed decisions and say correct things about the case. Basically, he likes it when you have your shit together. On the flip side, he doesn't like it when you insult people or behave recklessly. If you really want a reference, you can search the variables on fayde--ReputationGrows("Kim") and ReputationLowers("Kim")--to see which dialogue options will affect your reputation. You can't go into his room until after the tribunal, but I think you can go in regardless of what he thinks about you.

Right? He wouldn't even wear the cool jacket I got him :(

[–] BioWarfarePosadist@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

I even let him have the Piss Ft Jacket, just like he wanted! Even though I felt more like a Piss Ft. doggirl-gloom

I love Kim. (Spoilers!)

Just completed my first DE run. Was so worried for him during the tribunal, especially since I was missing checks left and right. I failed the first check againt the big scab guy, shot him with my peashooter on the second. The scary masked merc then raised his own rifle, and like something out of a movie, Kim plinks him right in the eye.

Stole this comment from r/DiscoElysium:
