Are you Toby?
I finished the game a few days ago and loved it. Thanks to the people in this thread that taught me
because I really think it made a huge difference in me finally "getting" the puzzle sections. I would have learned the technique the very next night anyway, but it still helped.
The story did get a little strange towards the end, but when you consider that the Golden Theatre is kind of like Atlus' Twilight Zone, it makes it easier to digest. One gripe I had: the best responses to Catherine never seemed all that positive. With Katherine, your texts could be really sensitive and loving, but with Catherine sometimes the best you could hope for was a curt, non-insulting response.
Anyway, I pretty much immediately started up a new game to get some more endings. I started a new game on Easy since I just want to plow through and get more endings. I was surprised at how much easier the early puzzles feel after beating the game. I thought that it was just because it was on Easy, but I switched to Normal just to see, and I got Golds on the first three stages with no real difficulties.

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
You lose out then, considering none of the girls in this game really have any. Though this is likely more to Japanese character designs in general not really emphasizing that anyway (see countless anime and JRPG examples).dragonlife said:

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.

I'm not talking about chest here, I was responding to his stated preference.

My bad.
Well... The closest thing to ass is the immoral beast: http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lozb5veCIs1qzmitu.jpg
Plus:
that monster is slightly referenced to Catherine and the acts that Vincent has done to her that night that she "never experienced before".

Cannot unsee ugly hat Katherine...
Also, ULTROS!, you just made the Immoral Beast about 100 times more terrifying.

Thanks!
I actually have a save at
9-4. If I pick a different final answer is that enough to get a different ending, whatever that may be?

Getting endings should be pretty fast if you skip cutscenes and have golds everywhere, right?

I'd have to imagine so. It doesn't take but a minute to move from nightmare to nightmare. I dunno if that lack of chit-chat with bar/sheep folk may make it more difficult though. Currently blazing through on my second playthrough and my meter certainly isn't moving up as quickly as it was before. Or maybe it is, questions are just re-weighted, and it's all in my head

Skipping nightmares means skipping the landing stuff as well? I have yet to try it. Some of those sheep conversations give you response options that can affect the meter. Same with some of the bar stuff.Sklorenz said:I'd have to imagine so. It doesn't take but a minute to move from nightmare to nightmare.

Nope, it just skips the puzzle and then loads you onto the landing that follows that puzzle. Those confessional questions are important, and if you're going for a specific ending and know what you want to max out, those questions alone are more than enough. You don't really need anything else. I think it still takes about an hour to skip though the entire game this way, skipping every cutscene and puzzle until you get to the final set of cutscenes.
PS3 Love edition came today. GREAT package. And the artwork is really beautiful.
Played the game for three hours on easy because I want to give myself a chance to like the game.
So far, it's great. Really dig how unique it is, and the laid-back bar sections are a nice counterbalance to the hectic puzzle sections.
Looking forward to savoring every bit of goodness that's ahead. Though truthfully, it is kind of creepy sometimes.

Yay, just beat Obelisk
I'm such a vagina.
in pairs.
I'm such a vagina.
I just got my second ending, the full Catherine ending.
Now with that, which one should I go for next? I have this one and the "bad lover" ending.
Edit:
HOOOOOOOOOOOOLY SHIT! Was not expecting her father, Mutton to be in the bed, or them to already be in another fucking realm! Holy shit! I was half-expecting to see Katherine show up somehow.

Edit:
OH GOD THERE WAS MORE AFTER THE CREDITS?!?! Shit this wins craziest ending of the year.

There are less blocks to climb in pairs. Obelisk ends at 150 or so, instead of 210 in single player.

Wow, apparently the 2-player mode made Babel easier.
So yeah, for those trophy hunters who have 2 controllers, Altar was easy to complete if you play it in pairs (in my case, I switched to two controllers).

9-5 was a pain in the butt compared to 9-6. In fact 9-6 can end up being easy if you memorize it.
Lyonaz said:
If I were you, go straight to gold-ing Hard without accessing the retry in the cellphone so you can stop and save your progress.
So judging from the spoiler-free ending, it looks like the various endings are determined by how you answer the confessional questions in 9-2, 9-3 and 9-4 -- the last level's confessional has no effect -- and this is combined with whether your meter is full or almost full or neutral and whether it's in the red or blue. Correct?
I'm at 7-1 now. Will the visit to the Stray Sheep before 9-2 be the last time at the bar? I ask because I want to know (without being spoiled) if I should make a separate save before leaving the bar for the ninth world, so that I can revisit the beginning of the ninth world and answer the confessionals differently for different endings.
I also see that golding stages allows you to skip them on subsequent playthroughs. Could I take the same eighth-world Stray Sheep save and simply replay the stages through my phone to get gold, and then start a new file, thereby skipping the stages as I try to get the rest of the answers?
Just wondering how this works. AMAZING game. I haven't been this hooked on a game's story since Heavy Rain, and objectively this is far more fresh and original, with way more style and pitch-perfect tone and delivery. And all the symbolism... Damn. Amazing.

You can keep a save on the
landing before the 9-2 confessional. You can keep a save at the bar from the night before and proceed to Gold all the Stage 9 floors. Once all the Stage 9 floors are Golded, you can skip those puzzles from the 9-2 confessional save after you've gotten your first ending.
Argh, why do people respond with 100-percent spoiler answers to people who haven't beaten the game yet? -_- Luckily, while I did hit Quote to reply to him, all I saw was the word "gold" before quickly backing out. I do NOT want this story spoiled. Like I said, it's Heavy Rain gripping... which is VERY gripping... and which has me worried that like Heavy Rain, all the mystery will be gone when it's over.LiK said:
Without spoiling anything, would the people who have beat this game say there's still an element of mystery once you beat the game? I'm at 7-1, and I'm hoping it's like Pan's Labyrinth where they don't explain everything outright, but if you read between the lines you can deduce a great deal. That's how the game has been so far (it would appear), and I hope it continues the trend.
