Btw my native city have its on Evrarts...for instance, in 2017 the bandits working for the construction company put a fire to the entire district of 130 houses to make space for the office buildings. There were deaths.

The writing is frankly disappointing. It's an HPL theme park, it's got literally everything in it. Structurally the writing is fine but line by line it's clunky and obviously ESL and not in a good way. Premise is great, atmosphere is great, story is OK (as far as I saw it), but it's chopped off in the middle, and the combat is frankly kind of rancid and there's too much of it.
Sad! Maybe I finally do my own RPG if it continues that way.

Honestly, the thing missing from the ending to me was just Harry going to talk to some people, kinda wanted to see him say goodbye to the kids at Church, talk to Lena and show her the photo of the phasmid, tell Titus that Ruby wasn't the killer, but i get why the game ended like it did.

That's concerning the murder of his predecessor I think.

Finding Billie's husband quest might be my favorite "serious" thing in this game. You don't solve his murder - there was none. You don't avenge his death because there's nothing to avenge and no villain to find. Just a drunken accident. You can't save Billie and her children from poverty. You can't help her in any way except bring her news of her husband's death and cushion the blow. Great stuff.

I've been playing for about 15 hours. I'm wondering how is it possible this guys I don't know nothing about made a game that such studios as Bioware, CDPR, Inxile and Obsidian couldn't even compute for 2 decades? Who are you Kasparov? I mean behind a human facade? Do you plannig to stay on earth for longer?

Is it actually possible to play those board games they have for sale at the bookstore, and is there any use for the various dice you can buy from the dicemaker?

Dunno about the board games (tried opening one of them, but no option to play it popped up), but the Wirral die appeared as a +1 modifier in a few, seemingly random, checks.
The RPG you can read the manual for it IIRC, there is a board game you can play with Kim. There's also another one (maybe also the RPG? not sure) where it seemed like it was going to some sort of game over scenario so I bailed.
And she doesn't come crying to you about her missing husband, like all normal quest giver NPCs do.

I first started drunkenly talking to her about missing person cases, bothering her about whether her husband or her daughters or her fucking pet bird is missing until she told me to fuck off. Later I found a drunk hobo on the street and told her I found her missing husband. It was all just hilarious "drunk cop does dumb stuff" fun, but then she said that yes, her husband has been taking longer than usual to return home.
And once I found him the quest turned from funny into grim.

The missing husband quest is just perfectly depressing, you can pester the woman(thankfully i didn't as it just looked like i would only be bothering her), then you find a corpse far away, find it's just a drunk man who had an accident, call a library to find he has a wife that loves to read...and it's the woman that was in the bookstore and when you check the apartment out you get descriptions of poverty and tell the poor woman about it as she becomes understandably depressed.
Doesn't help that all descriptions of the guy point to him being a drunken mess who only caused trouble for her, and said drinking ended up leading to an accident, at the end of the day it was just a simple case with no twists, but it's that simplicity that makes it stick out from the rest, it's short, concise, and depressing in a realistic way.

Marat Sar There are some consistency issues in the fishing village, where if you do stuff without Kim (he was carrying the body away att) he will still mention or talk about it on further dialogues once he's back. There was also an occasion while being alone where the text displayed accounted for his presence nonetheless.
