2:20 My impression from the dialog on starting the game is that Chapter 1 will be all the teaching and working us up to the full basic mechanics on rails, which is why it's at all possible to start a game at Chapter 2. People will still start games at Chapter 1 because that makes it possible to have a decent building layout

34:45 If you actually read the text of the investigation, it would have told you that you need to take samples of 3 different crops XD

Also, the intended hint for the water purification being harder is that there's only ~20 targets in the entire city, compared to the ~300 targets for crops.

I think it's because a ruddy great armoured airship appears and blows you into itty bitty chunks.

I'm ~3 hours into this game. I tried to be nonviolent, and then a coincidental murder happened anyway to force me into combat, I tried to hide, and the game forced me tower into the open, I tried to be non-violent and helpful and benevolent and it forced me to attack other people to get an arbitrary armor/weapon level before I was even allowed to select an investigation on a food field owned by a food-megacorp and then it forced me to kill dozens and dozens of people just to get food samples to help starving homeless people. :\ I mean I like a lot of it, but it's certainly not sandboxy or giving you options, more like forcing you into the narrative it wants you to, not like I thought it was going to be given the games description of itself. You have to start fights and mop up the enemies to do anything, and even when you're not new events and fights are also appearing. Mostly it's not hectic though, mostly it's chill and you're killing time between trying to upgrade to the point where you're eligible for the next area.

This is a good point, most of the videos I've watched show the game railroading players into fighting. There should be a way to try and avoid fighting initially, something akin to a proper pacifist route, where the player could just do a bit more setup to avoid combat entirely and put the city's mind at ease for a bit (which would allow them more time to get set up for the next encounter), but if they fail to get set up on time *then* they would be forced to fight. Or just don't force the fight at all.

@@therexyogaming I've played it a bit more and did find a way to lower my percentage chance to get into at least one of the fights I was ruinteenly being forced into (collecting materials for ammo for armor-piercing rounds which are required for one of the activities you need to do to collect ANOTHER material which is required to complete another thing) Still the work-around was only available AFTER a lot of killing, and it's still a 30% chance to fight verses a ~60% chance to fight previously, better, but still mostly the same system. I don't want to sell this game short I AM loving it, but I feel like it was slightly misleading at the start. even the nicest most pacifistic route is ~90% fighting to do anything, at least up to the point I'm at, which is I think the final or second from final step in the Demo. (the full game may have more options or routes after we get to this stage)
