Look out for a yellow plastic bag. With this equipped you can pick up bottles, either from the ground or by rooting around in garbage cans. You can then exchange these in the Frittte convenience store for money. You won't make a fortune this way, but it might help you afford a bed for the night.
Yes! Finally I can roleplay as a German bum.

Was interesting to hear the ACG guy talk about how having too high stats is a bad idea, as your character will start acting like a cunt to everyone.

OK, just discovered a MAJOR flaw in the game: it doesn't adapt to my attempts at roleplaying a completely naked character. I went downstairs at the starting area without any clothes on, and Lieutenant Kim asks me to "search my pockets" for some items like nothing is different.

I withdraw my earlier review, new score is 0/100.

Fuck, it was the first thing i wanted to try to test the game's true RPGness. Nobody reacts whatsoever?

I'll point out that you don't have to. Your brain just starts coming up with some fairly Codexian repartee. You can still take it or leave it.

Finally a game worthy of Hobo Elf and HoboForEternity ! Do hope that you could live as a hobo too!

I rembember it being in the game at some point in the development, but I cannot comment further rn. Might be a bug. Might have been cut. Deus Vult.

Would my 1000 rubles be enough to patch it in asap?

Okay, I'm convinced, I'm going to D1P it. I feel slightly ill at the thought of paying full price for a game, but playing a drunk stuck in a hallucinatory nightmare is going to be useful preparation for the end of this month.

Did you just spoil the game for everyone?

These reviews look good but they are also by literal whos and ACG, for whom I don't particularly care. I'll wait until more professional people like John Walker review this, or someone from IGN.
Don't forget John's brother Jack. He's a decent one himself.

Who the f are all these people?

If Ign, gamespot and other mainstream outlets had posted their previews it would have been a proper exposure for the people out there.

I hope they will post their video reviews at least
