There's a pretty large scale fight as soon as you start expedition. Might be impossible depending on build/level. Lots of melee guys, lots of bitch crossbow guys shooting you from outside sight range. I guess the good news is it happens right at the start so if it does turn out to be impossible you know it then so you can load an old save right there. Won't be much time wasted.

If you haven't finished Expedition, don't read below as you do not want to spoil this for yourself.
The entirety of Abyssal Station Zero is absolutely fucking amazing. I absolutely loved that there are no enemies in the entire station, especially after the sheer volume of enemies that you have to deal with to get there. That being said, you are on edge the entire time. Todd's breathing as he runs around the facility is actually unnerving until you finally see what it is. You spend so much time calming him down you almost lull yourself into a false sense of security, and the calming down process is brilliantly written and the mechanics behind it as well are executed perfectly. Then, when you finally step inside the research area of the station? Just wow. And people have the audacity to claim Underrail is a combatfag game with areas/quests like this in the game. The narrative elements here rival the best moments in PS:T and Disco Elysium, just in a completely different way. Underrail truly is one of the greatest RPGs of all time

^I wouldn't call it completely different to PS:T though. Underrail comes across as consciously inspired by Planescape. It's just not as obvious as the Fallout inspiration.

Also, are the soundtracks for the Abyssal Research segment, and for Oyensorm's temple, published online anywhere? very underrated.

Just loaded my old save from Abyssal Station to remind myself of past times. Is that sequence of surfacing in submarine with Todd aboard the only moment when our character say's anything outside of dialogue box? I cant think of anything else though i didnt played good ol' Underrail for a long time.

He also says something when taking the Psi pill.
As well as when he's in Dude's quest sequences and mocking the death of the crazy doctor that wants you to drink his poison cocktail.

Hah, when you wear Gray Army outfit and talk to Guzomir he will ask you where you got it. I love those details, i wonder if Kokoshka also can react to that, i will never know since i gassed Free drones... i think so at least.

He does, if you dress as an officer and talk to him, he'll actually think you're his superior for a second then will get pissed when finds out you're not, and will refuse to talk to you as long as you're wearing the uniform

so I finally got around to playing this game, minor nitpick but is it possible to move the cursor too when I pan the camera with rightclick?

The talismans are equippable in an utility slot. The wiki says they work, but their effects are intentionally not denoted anywhere. :lol: Also that their effects are stronger, the more of a "believer" you came accross during the hand fortune telling dialogue.
The best part - kissing a talisman costs AP, and has a sound effect. :lol: It's unclear whether the talisman works without kissing.

Coral has only one utility: making you restart the game because she and Booth are mutually exclusive and Booth is by far the superior choice

They work all the time. Kissing increases the strength of their buff/debuff for the next 30 seconds or something like that. I remember some guy using cheatengine to turn the kiss buff on permanently when he was spending hours trying to find out what charms did.

So you can now upgrade unique guns huh. Nice, now look at this beauty filled to the brim with explosive .44 rounds:obviously:

.44 explosive has been buffed too, it was very underwhelming before this update... all alternative ammunition's more powerful now

Does Abram interact in some way with Wyatt in junkyard? I told him about that mutation and he wanted to go there, is there some quest from this because he is not there?
