Make a lot of sense, the game is good for me for now, i like the jokes, i like the history until now, but what you said is true, why the hell they continue to play despite knowing all those problems in Eternum? Well maybe this will be answered in another update... it's a major question.
Maybe this has something to do with those visions the MC keep seeing, since some of those visions he see when he is offline.
Maybe this has something to do with that letter he got from the little girl, since that letter mention a demon from Solomon's book.
Damn bro..... so many questions are poping on my head now.
So far so good.
i have the feeling that the MC is some kind of a beast, because Lix Tetrax is a demon in Salomon's book, and the greek message sounds like a summon ritual, maybe this can explain why he has such power that even Calypso was surprised, maybe this can explain too why the little girl insist for him to not open the card, because he wasn't ready to deal with his powers, i guess that his powers are sealed, and the card can destroy that seal, but it will take some time for him to be consumed by the darkness inside him. The card is like a fertilizer, it will make his power grow, the problem it that he will not have control. And maybe this can explain why the phone call tell him to find Calypso, she could be the key for him to control his powers, and maybe this can explain his visions, those visions could be peoples who made a pact with him in the past, this could explain why they look inhuman, when they summon you, you give some of your power to those peoples, and your power corrupt them, and you can see them because they could act as a way to remeber you of what you're capable to do if don't control your power.
hmmm......
Boy... I did what you asked, read, reread, reread again, I took advantage of the fact that I had free time and spent a good amount of time reading, calmly and patiently.
First, I make it clear that I don't know the developer.
I'm not a game developer, I don't even know how to program anything, I'm a guy who likes to read, and write, and as a physics student and having worked with police and lawyers, I love logic.
That said, everything I say is not personal, it's just my honest opinion and I'll be extremely honest.
...................................
I read everything from the beginning of the game until the night he goes to the room to listen to the recording, I stopped there, because I was already out of patience for so much idiocy, many mistakes both in his actions, as in the actions of the other characters, I could write a book on how not to be a detective using this MC as an example.
During the convent, when questioning the sisters, he shows that he was really trying to conclude the case, he doesn't scoff, he's focused, but I agree with Miriam, "He lacks intelligence and wisdom!", imagine the echo that must have in the head of the MC due to the absence of a brain, seeing him trying to pressure his sister Delilah for example was a joke "are you lying to me Delilah?" Seriously? he should really be a comedian because he is a joke in human form. Is this how he wants to apply psychological pressure? not even a child falls for it. And worst of all is the seriousness with which he says it, as if he's saying "ArE yOu LyInG tO mE dEliLaH?" I would laugh in the face of a guy like that, and it only gets worse when he goes to accuse Teresa, she literally played with him there, instead of making a more subtle approach, no he decided to kick the door, if she wanted to get out of there what would he do? run after her and tell Spade she was to blame? I know it's a murder investigation, but an aggressive approach only works when you have a sense of the person's personality, and he clearly didn't have that. Continuing my torture session, he had already passed on to the sisters that he came to complete the case, despite being a rookie he proved to be a hardworking detective....dumb but hardworking, with that in mind, it makes no sense none had acted like a complete moron around Victoria, as the other sisters had contact with him, it was only Victoria asking the sisters how he acted in the investigation before she arrived, which easily all the effort he put in to be the fool of the court in front of her would fall, she had only to ask how he conducted the investigation, he didn't play the clown around the sisters, so making a fool of himself around Victoria would obviously be a trap.
Historical mistakes also happen, like the spear, this one was heartbreaking "the recovery of the lance was used to inspire the offensive against the muslims on the first crusade", whatever they're teaching about religious history, they're teaching it wrong Hell, the spear was used as propaganda during the siege of Antiquoia, and it was used towards the end of the siege, when Christian troops were disinheriting due to the heat and lack of water and supplies, all of which added to the news that the Muslims were sending reinforcements of 200,000 Turks into the city, to attack the Christians, the soldiers' morale was low, so a monk named Bartholomew claimed to have received a message from God, saying that the spear of Longinus would be in a church in the city, he went there and appeared with a spear saying that that was the spear of Longinus, this boosted the morale of the crusaders who managed to drive the Muslims out of the city. But she speaks as if the spear was the reason for the first crusade. No shit! the spear was used in a siege and towards the end of this siege, it was not the cause of the crusade. The reason was completely different, it was the retaking of the holy land that started with Pedro de Amiens, and soon after it intensified with the summons of Pope Urban II, and the mistakes don't stop there, there's a lot of shit ahead, it would be possible to transform history of this MC in a "Codex Gigas of shit", the more I read, the worse it got, I don't know what kind of "Big Brain Time" went through his head, when he saw that wiretap, he thought he was doing well, being the good of the story, the master of detective wizards.
Fucking idiot! injecting someone with an unknown substance, and on top of that directly into the bloodstream.. what could go wrong shit Sherlock?....let me guess... SHE COULD JUST DIE? AND WITH THAT HE WOULD BE TRAPPED IN THE BEST OF HYPOTHESES? BECAUSE THERE WAS ALSO THE HIGH POSSIBILITY OF VITORIA'S FAMILY TO KILL HIM, AND THAT WOULD PROBABLY HAPPEN. Holy shit, what was going through this guy's head? First, it is not easy to hit a vein, no matter how large the veins in the neck are, this does not mean that training is not necessary, as even doctors make mistakes, and often it has serious consequences. Infections, hemorrhages, and even death. HE COULD HAVE KILLED HER. It's already a bad idea to inject someone with something. Injecting something unknown then is a certificate of idiot, a guy like that only serves to make weight in the world, even if the capsules he injected were safe and he was a "Carlos Chagas" of life, it would still be a ridiculous idea, because he didn't you know if she could have any reaction to these capsules, or if these capsules could dissolve, then she would have a micro recorder full of toxic components coursing through her bloodstream.
Congratulations genius.
But the problem is not just him, Vitória is just not stupid anymore because she is just one. She already knew he was a detective, she says it herself, she had his profile, he's even surprised that she knows his last name, without him telling. With all this, how is this woman not suspicious when he gives her the injection? HOLY FUCKING SHIT! is a bloody needle piercing her flesh, and she just thinks it's a caress? what kind of person caresses by piercing another's neck? she doesn't even suspect the idiot was up to something. Anyone would have recoiled from the pain, and she knew he was a detective, it was obvious something was wrong. That's not overconfidence, it's ridiculous, if in the MC's head it echoes, in hers there would be room to do a Bon Jovi show. It seems that there is no reflex act in her. But at least I could laugh at some stupid things, like that asshole who went to take the camera away. How did he not see that he had a second camera? if it was a micro camera, it would be understandable, but my friend...... that thing is almost the size of an adult Shih-Tzu. "but he's wearing a mask..he can't see right" you could see such crap even with sunglasses living in China. But I'll excuse him, he must be a fan of "BLIND guardian", and his favorite song must be "follow the BLIND"
That's it, I read, reread, reread it again, for hours, and now I have no doubts, the story is horrible, I had said that I liked the game until then, I take back what I said, I started to hate it, I hadn't paid attention to so many errors, if such a detective exists in Brazil, I guarantee he doesn't exist anymore. I don't need to say why. Once again, I emphasize that I have nothing against the developer, for those who read what I wrote, and enjoyed the game, keep playing and enjoy. This is merely my opinion, for me the game is horrible. I know I'm not at an airport, but I'll announce my departure anyway. Bye and good game everyone. I will stop here because i want to sleep and because i don't care anymore. Goodnight.
I understand what you said, I just think it could have been more consistent, instead of making his thoughts contradict his actions, like a true investigator, he can think about how beautiful she is no problem, but the moment she talks about the superior mother, about what she was like, he could have stopped and thought something like "how does she know so much about the superior mother?" or when she mentions the time she didn't go to church, "so she didn't go to church for 2 weeks... about as long as the superior mother retires... interesting" now if his thoughts don't mean nothing, so why put them in history? let his actions alone speak for themselves...I understand what you said, but that doesn't take away the impression that he was just lucky and didn't plan anything. I know both stories are different, but the situation is the same. About the movies, I do the same analysis, because I've worked with it, with police, investigators, lawyers, my boss was the ex-director of the biggest penitentiary here in the state to "PCE" the movies aren't perfect either, and I do the same criticism, but that doesn't mean I didn't like it. I liked the game so far, I only bothered with this part because it leaves room for luck and not for planning, and in a real investigation, especially when it comes to a murder, trusting luck is asking to die. If he's planning something, at least make it look like he's planning it, being suspicious of some of her lines for example, and not thinking all the time about how pretty she is. That way you won't be able to think that he was lucky, because you really could see that he was planning something.
i read this part, i know who was the one that he use it, i know when he use, i never told anything about this, i didn't told about it because it was a good idea, the wiretap was okay, but so what?
i was focused on their conversation on the train because this is the part that didn't make any sense for me. Is hard to believe that the MC was planning a trap, when himself was thinking "i should try to impress her more with the detective stuff, imagine if i turn out to be the hero who solved the case at HER church, she'd be totally hooked! who knows i might even GET LUCKY WITH HER, damn she's really quite a sweet delight, especially with tears weiling up on her eyes" well, that's really 15 steps....15 steps of kamasutra....
looks like he was lucky, lucky that his trap worked, and not that he actually planned it, because there was so much to go wrong, that the game could have ended right there, if the superior mother had been cautious instead of proud, she could have have fooled him easily, she already knew he was a detective, she didn't need to go to church with him, he only found out that she was the superior mother because she went along and the nuns told him, but she could have left, she already knew that he was a detective, she already knew what case he worked on, while he only had one suspect "assuming that he suspected"... she could easily left and make a plan to kill him. That's the point, so much could go wrong that it's convenient that his plan worked. He give her so much information, that if she intented to kill him, she would..
I read that part, she let slip the fact that she hadn't been going to church in the last 2 weeks, time the other nuns had said she didn't show up and she herself had said the superior mother withdraws for about 3 weeks ..... almost the time she was without going to church, the way she talks, seeming to know her very well, it's pretty obvious that she has something to do with her superior mother at least, that's enough to distrust her, not to mention that you can see her on the street when he has the feeling of being followed, and on the train she appears, which makes me wonder if at this point in the championship he was already suspicious of her... what to tell her everything? there is also the dialogue in yellow.... he could have been suspicious of her already.... but apparently it gives the impression that he was more concerned about eating her. Good. That's what I think, it was so obvious that she at least had some relationship with her superior mother just because she said she had missed church and the way she talked about her, if the game was "among us" she would be suspicious " haha" which makes even less sense to reveal things, if I put myself in the detective's shoes, I wouldn't have told you about the camera, even because the camera was positioned in front of the church entrance, and the nuns stay there with a certain frequency, I could have gotten more information. But well, that's what I think, if it would be the most appropriate decision, I'm not sure, but I think it would make more sense.
don't get me wrong, but this "you'll know later" story doesn't convince, I had a teacher who went to write a fantasy book, and he ended up liking it and made a sequel with 5 books, a fantasy book, there was magic, ogres, gnomes, etc., but the problem is that in the first book the protagonist makes a lot of decisions that don't make sense even in the context of the book itself, something like suddenly gaining power, and without any kind of training she became strong enough to fight the villain of the story. This is an example, there were times when it didn't even make sense for a fantasy book, then he told me that "all this will be explained later" and I replied "frankly, if you can't explain it now, why would I want to know later? I read your book professor and as much as I like you, it was a frustrating experience, there was a lot that could have been explained now, to get the reader's attention, but it wasn't done, then you wrote other volumes just to explain something that happened in the first volume....since you didn't need to... what's the point of explaining it in volume 2 or 3, if people already lose the will to read in volume 1?" That's it my friend, I'm not saying to tell us the whole story, but if you leave it to explain the "now", "tomorrow"... it will only waste time, and people may not even want to see it when you explain it, because the interest who was there. ended.
i get what you are saying, and i agree, i don't think the game is bad, what i think is that it have a good idea but a boring execution, it's interesting to work with mysteries because at the same time the unknown causes fear, he causes curiosity too, so... it's a good start, the development that is a problem for me, for example, a clever moment is when he was talking to the mother superior, he didn't know that she was the mother superior and didn't tell her he had another hidden camera, he only told her about one camera.
The problem is that he was so open with her, so fucking open with her, that if she had spoken more with him, he would tell her that he had another hidden camera. He was literally opening his mouth to her, i bet he would even tell her his bank account... at that point the MC doesn't know that she was the mother superior, but c'mon....why he would be so open with a stranger?
There's some references about Once in a Lifetime, i played this game too, it's the same thing about mysteries, the difference is the development...right on the begining we know that the MC of Once in a Lifetime isn't clever, and the history throw him on a situation that a student would never think about it.. but it's developed in a way that makes a lot of sense, the MC is dumb, but that makes sense, he was just a student, and he was close to be disapproved, and this is why we get others to help him, to pass were he fails, Judy is clever for example and she help him. The MC isn't a good fighter, but Aiko, yeah! and she help too. All this time i was wondering about the MC of deviant, why he didn't ask more help, for example, when he follow Ryan, and he discover that Ryan was involved with drug dealers and he go to the alley and reach the factory... why did he do this? he already knew about Carly, he could try to get information with Spade for example, or with Moe, but no... he decides to follow them just to be taken by surprise. The game could end here because they could simple kill him, after all they got him... so to avoid this recklessness he could simple turn back and try to get more information about Carly or Ryan, it would make more sense.
Sorry for the english, it's not my native language.
And please if the developer read this, don't take as a insult, it's just a sincere criticism, the game has potential, but need more work on the history, especially after the first case on the store.
