make hn2 feel more like youre investigating a mystery like in the beta

[slender crescent]

The current game feels more like a rescue mission while the beta felt more like solve a Crime and a big mystery in raven Brooks i really miss that vibe from the beta while yes there is a deeper mystery in full game i dont think its presented that well i want to collect clues and such. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/720318918165659779/1174852571941322912/image.png?ex=657b8eb8&is=656919b8&hm=a8495c4e0a2c726930aa3e5173f545848f621fdeb4a43b0d4fbed7fd7e264a6a&

make full game feel more like a true crime and journalist simulator like the beta

[slender crescent]

The original description sums it up pretty well what i want

Not mr Peterson going down to the amusement park but basically thats how you solve things by sneaking around and gathering clues

[honest perch]

Yeah you dont really gather clues at all in fg

The closest thing to that in the full game is Quentin finding the newspaper in the basement

The whole "investigative" journalist thing leaves a lot to be desired.

Because the way its handled you have sentient monitors telling Quentin the answer

Like thats the lamest way it could be handled and I wish they actually had Quentin find something every night that would make him decide to break into a location

[slender crescent]

when do you find myas grave?

You only investigate aaron after the intro

[honest perch]

to be fair

fg doesnt feel like that at all

you just break into people`s houses because some monitors tell you to

[slender crescent]

Its okay i guess

[honest perch]

||tbh feels like the result of people asking for old art back which resulted in the ruined town||

[honest perch]

hn2 has the benefit of being still updated

act 1 deffinetly needs a rework

What if the monitors are the true enemy here. The reason Quentin is breaking into all the houses is because he worships the monitors and wants to start his own cult which is why he needs to take down the Forest Protector cult. Him being able to save Aaron is just a bonus. The monitors give him orders. That's also why he doesn't do any actual investigating, it's because being a journalist is just his alias. (This is meant to be a joke since I thought the idea of monitors literally giving orders to Quentin would be funny)

[wintry knoll]

the theory is that the monitors are controlled by the guest

[viscid radish]

But the new monitor tells you where to find the guest

[wintry knoll]

yeah idk about taht part

shpould prob ask that in #lore-discussion

[slender crescent]

Revive!

Bruh I was watching the beta footage, and how did they go from having a pretty interesting premise to almost no story in the full game?

[lament prawn]

It's what the companies known for
