I like how Kim's patience and faith are both his biggest strength and his biggest weakness as a character. He's an exceptionally loyal person who's able to handle a thoroughly broken individual with just the right touch...And also a person who, through his true believer tendencies, is still able to overlook genuinely despicable behavior on The Detective's part because he feels a bad cop is still better than no cop. It's possible to play the game in such a way that Harry is a gigantic fascist piece of shit, yet Kim still vouches for him in the ending as much as he would if Harrier were a total saint.

Reflects the fundamental complexities of interpersonal relationships. A person's strongest talent can also be their single biggest flaw; This also interacts nicely on a thematic level with the way the game penalizes stat dumping.

Best I can do is an ultraliberal run where I am also a communist

I've been a paramedic for thirteen years. I've seen the life go out of people and into them, too. I've helped to rinse the blood out of the back of the ambulance with a garden hose and then gone to lunch. People who do evil runs are made of tougher stuff than me.

:kitty-cri-agony: now

It's a testament to how well written the game is, honestly.

I know that feel.

just looked at the de subreddit for the first time today and theres so much shit that would be literally impossible to find organically without playing the game like 10 times

can somebody link me to something that like explains all the subplots and things going on in the background?

I can never play evil on my first run of a game, I feel too guilty; second run though, I start seeing it as a game and don't feel guilty (although perhaps DE has multiple ways of playing it beyond good and evil; I haven't actually played it yet)

Make sure you torrent this game comrades

I really am going to have to play this game huh

God, my fascist DE run is fucking painful.
