Volition is the Kim Kitsuragi in you. Motivation, Temperance, Self-Discipline.

I love Volition. It actually has a few big failures (as in, to help Harry, not just rolls) in the game, such as when you're trying to pitch art exhibition titles to Mega Rich Light-Bending Guy. Volition is just too averse to bullshit to come up with good names and if you listen to it, you'll be rejected and miss out on big money. You need Conceptualization for that 😉

If anything though, Volition goes too far in the other direction where it tries to get you to overlook reasonable suspicion being cast on Ruby

@@KlavinVolition wasn't wrong though

Its good but its downside is it can get too selfish.

I've always described the "skills" as characters in your party. and the more points the more they speak up. good or bad.

I think volition is just trying to protect a wounded heart. The last time Harry trusted a wömen there was a lot of emotional damage being done. I think that's why it might be overprotective now.

She did though lol

@@excalibur2772 I mean, she didn't. If you turn her in, a high Shivers check, which never lies, heavily implies that she dies in custody, and she's objectively not guilty of the murder. She lied about some stuff, but not about being hunted.

@coolguyjki I mean obviously she told the truth at times but Volition isn't wrong in saying she essentially lied about everything about her identity. It's clear she is being hunted but "innocence" is a little much to just accept

@@excalibur2772 In all fairness, I don't think she's necessarily innocent either, but she's innocent of the crime we're investigating and that's what matters. Think about it this way -- suspicion that she may have committed other crimes is fair, but it's not a justification for arrest, and lying about who you are isn't what I'd call probable cause. Industrial Espionage and potentially sabotage can be pretty severe crimes, but if it's between a death sentence and letting her go, I think mercy is preferable, whether she's a pretty girl or not.

Truly the most terrifying thought imaginable

It happens if you take the check on the first round without leaving the conversation. You can take him aside to get his impressions, and when you've spoken to him, come to the conclusion he's also compromised.

@@Adanu191 thanks!

And is a major hint that Volition is actually compromised itself. As if you know about Kim, you'll know it'd be pretty hard to use "Feminine wiles" to compromise him.

@@NEEDbacon oooh this is an interesting interpretation! I never considered that! It makes sense

My conceptualisation was so high that when I tried to get the paintbrush from Cindy, my idea was too detailed and high concept that she didn’t want to give me the brush

After I finish this game I totally got to play It again in a more "unbalanced" way to see this stuff I'm on day 3 and my stats are... Well, I'm decent 3/4 at EVERYTHING excluding my boddy (but somehow I knocked measurehead with 2 points on phisyc)

are you taking about the contact mike info dump

​​@@nekole Oh. My. God. “The contact Mike *info dump*”??? Contact Mike is an inspiration. A 5000-1 underdog who won by sheer willpower alone. You downplaying how inspirational Contact Mike is says more about you than Encyclopedia says about him. You should try to be more like Contact Mike.

@@legendarytat8278 dude fuck contact mike

Your Curiosity is compromised too then

I didn't because Kim would've left for the day and I would've been sad and alone again :(

Your Inland Empire was compromised irl.

That's an abuse of power something men need to control even outside of a beautiful woman playing them like a fool.

Drama was my signature skill and I had it maxed at this point. This scene hit like a ton of bricks.

Wow I didn;t even know this can happen with other skills. It was drama and logic for me...
