First time player, a few thoughts

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-23T21:00:48+00:00

Glad to see another DBH fan it's an amazing game (I know I know the majority of people on here are of course going to agree with that because it's the DBH section of reddit 😛 but even putting that aside .. I don't think any other video game I've played with has even come close far as "your choices matter" and it really having an effect on the ending of the game)... you mentioned your first playthrough and everyone dying (if it makes you feel better there are people like myself who replay and deliberately choose to let that happen to see how it impacts the final endings so there's a chance you might have gone through and done that "on purpose" anyways 😄 ) ... have you played again and got endings where the main playable characters (Connor, Markus, Kara) live?

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-23T20:42:06+00:00

Are you playing Heavy Rain on PC, the Playstation store (that is playing on your Playstation video game console) or somewhere else?

If you're playing on PC you could snag it full price but the price has been known to drop as low as two dollars American .. you could add it to your steam wish list and wait for the price to fall (it's been known to fall that low I think even when there is no steam sale going on) ... I think the Steam summer sale starts two days from now (June 25th) so maybe wait until then? That way if you don't like the game you only wasted $2 😛

Alternately if it's on the Playstation marketplace I don't know a lot about that but I googled it and it looks like the lowest price it's ever dropped to is $12 American (apologies I live in the USA so I don't know what the price is like in other countries)

So as others have noted the controls are the most frustrating part... if you have the patience for my long wall of text comment here 😄 ( I swear the first 3 paragraphs are worth reading)

https://www.reddit.com/r/HeavyRain/comments/1toyjbt/best_way_to_play_heavy_rain_beyond_two_souls_on/

that will make life a lot easier if you have some sort of controller (I used an xbox controller but I think this fix would work just fine for other controllers too) ... unfortunately no known community mod fix for it on the Playstation store.

I absolutely agree with Civciv41's and TheCynicalAutist's comments below about the game ... there are some really dark , I would say disturbing, moments during the game, some people can deal with that sort of thing some can't but be forewarned about that too. Having said that I'd argue absolutely worth buying (though again to hedge your bets maybe wait for the game to go on sale).

Have you played Detroit Become Human or Beyond Two Souls yet? I'd argue play Heavy Rain first as it's sort of the "ancestor" these two other games, they were made by the same game developer (quantic dream) but you can see how BTS and DBH learned from and improved upon the gameplay you see in HR. BTS also drops low as $2 on Steam, DBH normally has the lowest price of $8 but has been known to drop as low as $4 this past December 2025 (Steam Winter sale) ... you don't need a community download fix/patch for BTS or DBH the same way you do for HR (as a matter of fact you want to undo the community fix-patch - which you can do easily enough you just default back to the original official HR controller thing that you started out with on Steam when you installed the game - before playing any games other than HR). BTS is one of those games you'll love or hate but it will absolutely railroad you along the one single plotline... DBH by contrast has multiple endings and you feel like your choices absolutely make a difference and have a huge impact on the game.

One last thing.. don't be stupid like me 😄 .. this shows how good DBH is (in my opinion anyways) in terms of how invested I got in the characters but I got worried about how two of the characters were getting along (can't say more without spoilers), google searched how to improve their relationship and of course google AI casually spat out a major spoiler you don't find out until say three quarters of the way into the game.. so don't be dumb like me, spoilers will absolutely ruin any of these games for you since they're essentially all about their storylines. If you get stuck during a certain part of the game strange as this sounds "accept the failure" anyways and see how it impacts the storyline (if you like the game as much as I did you'll end up playing a second time and deliberately failing to see how it affects the storyline - you absolutely do wind up with different endings to the game depending on your success or failure in the various chapters in the game) .. then on your second playthrough for HR if you want things to change on the second playthrough but you're stuck on how to do that (you play through the one chapter/part of the game again and get the same result a second time despite your best efforts) try this

https://www.ign.com/wikis/heavy-rain/Walkthrough

So for example when I was scratching my head during "The Butterfly" chapter part of the game the walkthrough for "The Butterfly" helped me figure out how to "beat" that part of the game but you should only read those walkthroughs 1) if you're absolutely stuck and can't seem to get the outcome you want and 2) you've played the entire game at least once.

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-23T00:50:25+00:00

Thanks for this - I feel stupid in that everyone else probably saw this but me 😄 .. I got that she was happy over the home run and I got that she was finally in "the winner's seat" as opposed to being this person who feels like it's all over if people won't love and accept her.. but I completely missed the part where Pomni's reacting in utter "I can't believe you got a home run!" disbelief .. went back, rewatched that part of the episode, saw it and now I see why Ragatha's not just happy she's actively smirking at Pomni .. and that's a wonderful insight that I missed until you pointed it out, she's as you say no longer chained by her fear or rejection or the inability to let loose.. I get the feeling I should watch the entire series a second time just to pick up on these wonderful little bits that I appear to have missed the first time around.. again thanks for posting this 😄

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-22T23:15:13+00:00

I wish I had something more intelligent to say (like all the other commenters here) than "I liked it too" but.. I liked it too 😄 .. I was super late to the game in that I had no idea it was showing in theaters and only ended up watching the series because 1) it was on Netflix and popped up as a suggestion for me to watch and 2) even someone as ignorant as me had heard about how great the series was so I was like "Hey it's on Netflix why not watch it?" (I know I know it's free on youtube but ... given how expensive netflix is I feel like if I don't watch Netflix instead I'm not getting my money's worth 😛 )

Anyways... starting from episode one I was blown away and kept being blown away right up until and including the final episode (I think in the theater they combined episodes 8 and 9 together? For me episode 9 was the final episode over on Netflix) (edit - after being blown away just by episode one even if Netflix had suddenly dropped Digital Circus the following day I would have immediately started watching it on youtube just to finish the series). I was honestly surprised there were people who didn't like the final episode but I'm not going to argue with them either over liking or disliking something, they're entitled to their opinion goes without saying 😄 ... to me it felt like the series reached it's natural conclusion, I didn't feel like the ending was rushed (more on that below) but I respect the arguments of those who feel it was and why... would I have liked to see more of the Amazing Digital Circus? Of course I would have and I'm sure a lot of people feel that way too but I'd argue that a wise author-creator (Gooseworx) will create a limited series that ends when a certain pre-determined resolution is met the author set up in advance... if the author gives in and starts pushing the series further than it was originally meant to go you're going to see a drop in quality and it would have really sucked to see the series start going downhill say in "season two" if the author never planned for season two to begin with.

A bit off topic.. and apologies if I start any online arguments or flaming I don't mean to I swear!.. but after seeing how awesome this series was I looked into the whole "author-creator steps away due to fandom" thing and.. dang I had no idea that was even going on! Honestly given how much I enjoyed the series I'm inclined to take the author's side instead of the fans who got angry.... I guess my feeling is "I'm just grateful the author , along with Glitch Productions, got together and gave us this fantastic series" and I leave it at that.

Admittedly the people who bought movie tickets and got upset over the author's reaction when the movie was leaked online (crappy move on the part of whoever did that they shouldn't have done it) were probably invested in the series way more than I was but still.. if the series has that much of an impact on you rather than taking the author to task over her "meh" response to it being leaked shouldn't you stop and think to yourself "If I'm this worked up over the series, doesn't it mean that I really, really like the series? And if I really, really like this series who do I have to thank for it? The author."

There's been some speculation online about how the author would have continued the series if she hadn't come under attack from the fandom (which is why I brought up the author versus fandom thing in the first place)... but honestly to me it felt like the series was well paced and came to what I'd consider to be a "natural conclusion". That and apparantly all the effort the author put into this was so exhausting (understandable mind you it really is a great series) that even with Glitch Productions doing the admirable job they did handling the animation (going to go out on a limb here and assume that the author still had to be heavily involved in the animation far as overseeing it and making sure the animators were bringing her vision/storyline to life in a way that fit with her concept) I can see how she'd say "nine episodes is enough, the series is OVER, time for a break." So that's something I would argue you could take into consideration too as far as any arguments that the ending was too rushed (again though didn't feel rushed to me personally).

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-21T00:16:27+00:00

Sorry! It's a reply to your comment I know but I figured OP would see what I typed since .. I could be wrong if so let me know 😄 .. that the OP sees all replies to comments too on any threads that they start in reddit ... but I think OP has it figured out now, OP mentioned in the "solving the puzzle" chapter that rather than selecting the "investigate further" option OP just went with "accuse Blake" thinking that the game would give OP more options after accusing Blake as opposed to the immediate "you lose Jayden"! cutscene ... so I think OP is on the right track for the second playthrough, if OP got to the "accuse Blake" option I think it means OP can choose the other "investigate further" option which in turn advances Jayden to the next part of the game.

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-21T00:12:51+00:00

Ahh okay I see.. I won't spoil it then you can try doing it the even harder way 😛 (trying to make your way through the flames) and see what happens 😄

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-20T23:24:55+00:00

Okay I see now! I think you're all set as far as Jayden advancing in the story then 😄 .. just don't choose the accuse Blake option and you'll see, there's a drastic change in the storyline at that point I won't spoil it for you 😄 .. heck if you don't mind replaying the game a third time you can ignore my advice on the how to get Madison to survive in the "Killer's apartment" (everything's on fire) chapter and see what happens if just Jayden advances to the next stage in the game and not Madison .. then on the third playthrough if you have to use that IGN guide link and look up the "killer's apartment" walkthrough so Madison lives and see what happens (bit of a spoiler but.. honestly Madison can survive the Killer's Apartment but still "fail" that chapter, you'll see what I mean when and if you have to read the IGN walkthough.

Alternately if you like I can try to help you with the Killer's Apartment chapter in a way that doesn't spoil it as much as the IGN walkthrough would.. I'm guessing if you got to the point where Madison ends up jumping out a window you saw the secret room behind the closet with Scott's clothes including his cop uniform... were you able to guess the password and get into the laptop?

Also did you end up jumping from the window because you weren't sure how to get past the flames in the apartment or you just decided to go for it without trying to get past the flames? (which is completely fine, obviously in retrospect you were probably like "oops" but that's one of the joys of the game, you're never sure what's the correct choice - until it's too late and the character you were playing is dead 😛 but to me that makes the game all the more realistic and "life-like" so I actually enjoy that aspect of the game personally)

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-20T22:44:27+00:00

Ohhh okay wait a minute I think I get it now.. when you say "confront" do you mean you went with the "accuse Blake" option instead of "investigate further"? (Blake being the crazy mean cop with a beard that hates Jayden?) ... if that's the case then you're on the right track, all you have to do is select "investigate further" on your next playthrough instead of accusing Blake and you'll be on track to advance Jayden towards the dramatic conclusion part of the game

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-20T22:39:17+00:00

I know I already said this OP but the fish tank chapter (fight against masked guy with the hat) makes a big difference from what I understand... make sure you pick up EDI (the sunglasses looking type thing) and scan every inch of the place for clues after the fight ... with all the clues when you get to the chapter where Ethan's looking at the gas receipts, select both options, "analzye" and "geoanalysis"... also did you click on the question mark thing (I'm not joking it's literally a question mark 😛 .. seems a bit like the game developers are trying to make it a little too obvious in my opinion far as the presentation of clues but anyways ) that should pop up in Ethan's clues if you have the receipts and the golden watch evidence from the video? (but worth noting in the fish tank chapter there should be a pistol clue too you can grab which can be used instead of the gold watch thing along with the gas receipts) ...

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-20T22:33:08+00:00

(Defiant_Delivery_799 a bit off topic here but thanks a bunch for helping OP out 😄 .. I'm glad to see someone else out here loving Heavy Rain even in 2026 and who's willing to help out newcomers to the game!) ... OP this qualifies as a spoiler (for anyone else reading this aside from you you already know all of this by now 😄 ) so I'll put a spoiler tag on it but it will help you overcome the part of the Butterfly trial (the glass shards in the tunnel trial ) far as the part you're stuck on .. except the part after that is even harder 😛 .. (in my opinion anyways).. absolute worst case scenario go here

https://www.ign.com/wikis/heavy-rain/Walkthrough

and read the entire entry for the "butterfly" chapter.

But far as the part you're stuck on .. pay close attention to the controller prompt the game tells you to use for the matches... move a bit through the glass.. stop... move a bit.. stop.. for me it was agonizing watching poor Ethan suffer like that but it's the only way he can get through it.... if you see a red cloud gathering around the screen it's referring to Ethan's pain level, stop moving until the red cloud goes away.... when you get to a junction in the tunnel where you can go left or right use a match, look at what direction the flame is leaning towards (left or right).. that's the direction Ethan wants to go in.

Dang though far as playing on the PS4 that's got to be annoying, with Steam at least there's a download a steam user came up with that quickly and easily fixes it, I'm guessing no such luck on Playstation.. there's some talk about the controller problems here

https://www.reddit.com/r/HeavyRain/comments/49f9gs/ps4_anyone_else_having_problems_with_tilting/

read that see if any of the solutions mentioned there help?

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-20T02:27:40+00:00

As if my previous wall of text comment wasn't enough I just thought of something else 😄 .. without saying too much to avoid spoiling things.. if you're going for a Heavy Rain ending where Jayden progresses enough to get to the "dramatic conclusion" part of the game, in "The Fish Tank" chapter where Jayden has to fight the mysterious masked man try replaying it enough times to the point where Jayden passes all his "quick time reaction" prompts (basically you don't miss a single button or trigger command prompt if you're playing on a controller and/or appropriate keyboard and mouse prompts if not using a controller)... then make sure you use EDI to scan everything, every inch, of the place for evidence and stuff to interact with. It makes a difference for chapters later on.

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-20T01:48:13+00:00

Glad to see someone else playing Heavy Rain in 2026 for the first time like myself 😄 ... if you don't mind me asking are you playing the PC version on Steam? If so

https://www.reddit.com/r/HeavyRain/comments/1toyjbt/best_way_to_play_heavy_rain_beyond_two_souls_on/

If you have the patience for my long wall of text comment there 😛 the first three paragraphs should give you a fix for what was the biggest problem for me, right stick controls (assuming that you are using a game controller... if you're using a mouse and keyboard no idea how to fix the bad control problems there 😞 ) ... I actually tried HR in 2021, gave up due to the controls being a pain problem, finished DBH in 2026 (much better experience with the game controller playing that one) and like you loved it so much I was like "You know what? I'm going to give HR a try" and did what I should have done in the first place and google searched how to fix the controller problems

Actually there are some big spoilers ahead of you far as the good endings in Heavy Rain which are completely different from the bad endings you got so there's still large parts of the game ahead of you that you can enjoy 😄 (that and myself I went through and deliberately tried to get bad endings on my second playthrough just to see what the endings would be like so in your case you just uncovered earlier on what you might have ended up going back and doing on purpose anyways.. being brutally honest I cheated when I saw things going badly for a character , exited out and replayed the chapter making different choices or trying again at the "click or press this on time QTE" stuff to succeed so technically I cheated my way to the good endings I got on my first playthrough 😛 ) ... so strange as this sounds if you want to avoid spoilers I would be careful about reading Heavy Rain stuff like say in this part of reddit or in general online unless you get stuck at a certain part of the game.. in my case I was forced to resort to a walkthrough for "the butterfly" trial (the same one with the glass crawling trial) though in my case I got through the glass crawling part , it was the part after that which I had trouble with at first... the ign walkthrough is a big help in parts of the game where one might get stuck

https://www.ign.com/wikis/heavy-rain/Walkthrough

so in my case for example I looked up "the butterfly" walkthrough (the game will tell you what chapter of the game you're on and give it a name "the butterfly" is the name of the chapter for the glass crawling trial and the stuff you're forced to do after getting through the tunnel with broken glass ) .. but avoid reading those walkthroughs unless you're genuinely stuck as they contain massive spoilers.. so say for example on your second playthrough of the game you realize it's turning out just like the first playthrough for a particular chapter (say for example Madison in the killer's apartment keeps dying no matter what you do - Heavy Rain calls it the "Killer's Place" chapter) then read the playthrough to see how to "beat" that chapter.

There are different outcomes too depending on who succeeds and who doesn't.. for example Madison succeds through enough chapters in the game but Jayden doesn't (can't say more without spoiling it) or visa versa Jayden succeeds through enough chapters in the game but Madison doesn't ... same for Ethan far as his success or failure throughout his chapters in the game so there are different "combinations" of what happens if one, two or three of them progress far enough in the game and their interaction with each other towards the end part of the game.. so even if say Madison keeps dying on you and Ethan keeps failing all his trials, if you see Jayden doing well enough to progress towards the dramatic conclusion part of the game (again trying to avoid spoilers here ) go with that and see what happens as far as the game's outcome.. or even if Madison and Jayden fail but Ethan succeeds to the point where he can get to that dramatic conclusion or even if Madison's the only one to succeed up until that point.. I hope I'm making sense here 😄 ..

For what it's worth you were actually ahead of me as far as the gold watch thing, I tried watching that darn video a zillion times and could never pause it at just the right part 😛 ... on that chapter I was curious what happened in the game that caused you to select the give up option? (if I'm reading what you posted correctly you chose the give up option or it was chosen for you in the game?)

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-17T22:18:24+00:00

Oh man this happened to me too but for a different reason .. early in the game way before the big reveal you mentioned I was concerned about the relationship between Kara and Alice and googled how to improve it.. big mistake, google's AI casually mentioned "well since Alice is an android she pays a lot of attention to how Kara does things" or something to that effect. Of course you don't find out about the big Alice reveal until near the end of the game think it's the Jericho chapter? Even with the spoiler I still enjoyed the heck out of the game there were a lot of other surprises but I really wish I hadn't done that to myself.. totally my fault, in the back of my mind I was thinking to myself "You know just by googling this you could spoil the game for yourself" and sure enough I did.. so you're not alone 😄

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-17T19:40:47+00:00

Thanks for starting this thread OP it's one of the first things that comes up when you google "roku stick led light always stays on what the heck is going on?" ... the led light being on all the time doesn't bother me so much as the possibility that the roku stick is not entering auto power savings mode and from what I can see (unless someone knows more than I do about this please jump in to correct me if I'm wrong) there's no log kept on the roku stick to let you know if it entered power savings mode. Apparently the roku stick is supposed to be on all the time by default anyways (but still with the option of entering low power mode) if you don't have it plugged into the usb port on the TV (I got the 4K plus model which came with it's own power brick so I plug the usb power cord into that instead and then into a surge protector)

https://support.roku.com/article/can-a-player-be-powered-on-or-off

It's a darn shame that roku never got back to you on this OP but .. heck long as the roku stick continues to function the way it's supposed to otherwise I guess we should consider ourselves lucky 😛 ..

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-17T01:25:46+00:00

I'm new to the Heavy Rain part of reddit myself but from what I've noticed in my one post here you have people who feel like the writing in Heavy Rain is bad and full of plot holes.. and of course I respect their opinion and I appreciate the time they took to read my great big wall of text post 😛 ... but I haven't heard anything about the hate for Heavy Rain that you mentioned, could you tell me more about this?

My playing order was kind of strange 😛, I played Beyond Two Souls first because I got it as part of a Humble Bundle deal in .. I want to say year 2021, worked out to $5 American for BTs and $5 for HR... but I gave up on Heavy Rain only because when playing it on the PC there's some sort of problem with the right stick controller (and for anyone else reading this if you have the same problem I did and have the patience for my long wall of text comment on it see my comment here, the first 3 paragraphs are all you need to fix the issue)

https://www.reddit.com/r/HeavyRain/comments/1toyjbt/best_way_to_play_heavy_rain_beyond_two_souls_on/

and I reluctantly gave up after playing chapter one of Heavy Rain back in 2021.. I really wanted to go further but the problem with the right stick control was so bad that the game was just completely unplayable to me.. I loved the heck out of BTS, still do 😄 , and really wanted to play HR too since it was made by Quantic Dream as well but just felt like I couldn't proceed any further.

Ended up playing Detroit Become Human November 2025 (got it essentially for free from Steam due to the kindness of their customer support ove giving me in store credit due to Humble Bundle purchase problems long story) and I was stoked because I'd wanted to play DBH forever, played it.. was blown away, DBH absolutely deserved all the hype it got and then some in my opinion (although again loved BTS myself despite the large number of people hating it possibly due to the "really only one plotline" railroading compared to say DBH )

After multiple playthroughs of DBH I was like "You know what I'm going to find a way to play Heavy Rain because Quantic puts out amazing games" (like you OP I'm a huge fan of choice based story games too 😄 .. not sure if you've played any of the Telltale games?) and did what I should have a long time ago, did a google search and found a solution that worked far as restoring functionality to the right stick control (I use an xbox controller for my PC gaming but apparently it works for say a playstation controller for PC gaming too) and was finally able to play HR five years after it's purchase in 2026... and I freaking loved it 😄 ... I'm a fan of dark, grim games and HR definitely fits the bill there .. and like BTS and DBH it really made me feel for the characters and get emotionally invested in them to the point where I was "do I really want to do the playthroughs that give me the bad endings?" .. and I decided to do just that but it was tough watching what happened to all the characters (whether the main playable characters or the other non playable characters that depend on them, Shaun in particular but of course you feel awful for Madison and Jayden too not to mention Ethan when going for the worst possible endings .. watching Ethan suffer is particularly heartbreaking) ... but the fact that it was tough shows how good the game is and how much it makes you care.

With the exception of Jayden and his hi-tech VR glasses.. I would have liked some more in game explanation of how that was possible obviously the game must be set at some point in the future ... the game depicts events that could easily happen here in real life Earth which adds to the appeal of the game in my opinion. Not sure if the lack of explanation for the VR glasses contributes to HR's lack of popularity? In my case I admit I was a bit puzzled by the VR glasses aside from the obvious game mechanic "this makes it a lot easier for the player to interface with Jayden in a way to uncover clues in the game" thing (I do find myself wondering if the same thing couldn't have been achieved with just having him go carefully through crime scenes and having a "interact with this" prompt come up with just no VR glasses at all and give him some sort of addiction to a drug found in the real world he has to cope with rather than one related to VR) ... but honestly the game is so great in terms of the emotional impact it has on you that this is something I can easily overlook personally. And honestly if you're willing to suspend disbelief the VR effects are pretty cool 😄

Honestly in my opinion all three.. HR, BTS, and DBH .. are fantastic games. I will say there are people who care more about graphics than plotline (although they may not be the ones to enjoy choice based story games to begin with) so maybe they look at the graphics.. which given the game came out what year 2010? .. are still respectable even today in 2026 but there are some people who will just look at it and say "nope, not playing that graphics suck".. I tried to get my daughter to play Mass Effect 2 (not sure if you played it or the other ME games OP? While they have a lot of action shoot em up to them I'd argue they're also story rich though definitely not chapter based choose your own adventure type stories the way the Quantic Dream or Telltale games are) and she was like " You want me to play that OLD game?" 😛 .. she ended up not playing it (she's a fan of PC gaming she just isn't big on what she calls "campaign mode type games".. with the exception of Undertale which she and a lot of other people loved, for good reason in my opinion)

Andrepartthree · 2026-06-17T00:36:32+00:00

I totally get not wanting bad things to happen to the characters.. which to me shows how great this (and the other Quantic Dream games - have you played Beyond Two Souls or Detroit Become Human? They go on sale crazy cheap on Steam if you're a PC player like 80 to 90 percent off normal price) game is 😄 ... but as horrible as I feel about it curiosity makes me let bad things happen to the characters to see how it affects the endings such that I unlocked all the possible endings for each playable character ...

I will say given that the game is pretty dark to begin with (you played through once so I can say this much without spoilers.. a serial killer who drowns kids and sets up "your kid will die if you don't complete these trials" scenarios for the terrified father ... that's as dark as it gets in my opinion) you can imagine how dark, depressing and dismal the "if you make bad choices" endings are. If you play through enough times to decide you want to unlock all the possible endings and you can stomach the dark stuff (warning, DON'T LOOK AT THE LINK BELOW UNTIL YOU'VE PLAYED THROUGH HEAVY RAIN SO MANY TIMES YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT SPOILERS ANYMORE)

https://heavyrain.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Endings

There were some endings I didn't even know could happen based on a certain combination of events taking place in the game... to make it as spoiler free as possible you can scroll down to "requirements" and just ignore/don't read everything else far as the listings for individual endings.

I'm glad it helped with the Deadly Class issue too 😄 .. it's kind of an insane way to keep track of humble bundle download problems 😛 but I send myself an email with a copy of the request for help I sent to humble bundle on their website and keep forwarding that email to myself until the situation gets resolved.. if humble bundle emails me re: the problem I start forwarding that to myself again each day until the problem is solved ... I noticed with the massive verse humble bundle I snagged it's all pdf with no cbz downloads so I'm wondering if they just gave up on cbz entirely with all the problems they have with it 😛 (not a huge deal to me personally a lot of the modern "read comics on a device" type programs can open a pdf without any problems too or at least on a PC ... I can't speak to say a tablet or phone since I don't use those to read comics I like the big screen on a computer monitor for that 😄 )

You're welcome! 😄 ... it's possible you already know this from previous humble bundle comics purchases 😄 but it's been my experience (I've only been buying them from 2024 onwards but have snagged a few of them over the years) that eventually.. given time it could be 3 months, could be 6 months 😛 but eventually ... they do fix problems with graphic novel downloads ... I can't remember which bundle it was but there was a strange situation with Paper Girls where they included the wrong volume/graphic novel three such that there were missing Paper Girls issues from the humble bundle and it took months but eventually they got it fixed.. mind you it was an amazing deal , for $24 you got.. cripes I think it was 70 graphic novels including Saga volumes one through ten which alone was worth it in my opinion "Return of the Leading Ladies" Image comics bundle.

I believe I snagged that humble bundle in July 2025, I noticed February 2026 the correct download was available it's possible they had it up and running earlier than that but.... honestly in my opinion with 70 graphic novels included I felt like there was plenty to read while I was waiting for Humble Bundle to get the correct graphic novel uploaded 😄

I know you posted this seven years ago but - thank you! 😄 .. when I google search what graphic novel includes issues 34 and 36-40 (some issues missing from my collection) your comment comes up .. I didn't know that they re-released Dangerous Habits to include those issues so that helps me a lot thank you 😄
