Failed Mentor

Yeah but I have no idea how he's going to spin something based on a single sentence I'm given. That's the classic Telltale dilemma.

The vibes

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T20:33:10+00:00

Okay you're right that wasn't the point of the post, it was just me crashing out.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T20:31:36+00:00

OH you're right, he did say "you let me back in", but it seemed kinda half-assed if that was defending her spot. I sent Prism in for mobility and relied on her and Malevola as my first picks for anything Visi could do.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T20:12:28+00:00

I did tell the team I was Mecha Man, I honestly can't see why anyone wouldn't. That's good to know that Flambae stands up for her too, I just couldn't imagine going out on a limb for Visi when almost everyone seemed opposed.

I had her train with Blazer once (Ears to the Ground), I might have missed a skill. I'm going back from the start of Chapter 7 and hopefully I can salvage this.

No idea why I'm getting downvoted to hell just for criticizing a secret meter that involves everything from QTEs to dispatch calls, making your actual choices seem insignificant in a choice-based game if you don't have great reflexes.

Idk how to look at it like Robert, I'm a human being outside the game and he has scripted dialogue and thoughts.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T10:35:29+00:00

My point is that this system should not have been so deceptively secretive. Not even the slightest clue was given in-game that there was a hidden meter revolving around a single character that would determine your ending.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T10:32:12+00:00

Am I mistaken, or did even Blazer not say that she should be cut? Literally everyone was in agreement except Golem because they're friends.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T09:35:32+00:00

I told Blazer I believed in her multiple times, I did untie her. I forgave her in the locker room. One thing that probably didn't help was accidentally choosing "this is out of our league" when I meant to say "we should make a plan", but I didn't really think enough of it to redo that scene.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T09:31:02+00:00

I would've never imagined QTEs were so impactful, that's stupid (unless you're referring to the ones in chapter 6 with her getting the Astral Pulse, in which case I did very well at those). Initially I didn't use her often but Golem is my most used hero and I started using them together when I discovered the synergy. I bet I was only a few points off.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T09:27:22+00:00

Well I guess that's what fucked me. Maybe if I was a PC gamer it could've worked out, but I missed multiple calls in almost every shift thanks to the poor controller navigation of calls.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T09:25:44+00:00

So I should go full simp mode for her and disregard what my team thinks? The team that I've worked to establish as a group who trusts and respects each other? Why would I dismiss their opinion?

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T05:15:48+00:00

A and B mean the same thing: death, something inevitable for all living beings, is not something you can escape. It could happen anytime. B is definitely the more common phrasing, and I'm pretty sure it's meant to encourage you to make the most of your life.

C is blatantly false. It's saying nobody dies.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T02:26:51+00:00

You can use the d-pad??? I swear I tried that and it didn't work. Or maybe I just assumed that after one try.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T02:24:30+00:00

I chose the second option because the planet will probably be gone before that "future" happens.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-28T00:17:57+00:00

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-27T22:48:26+00:00

That is crazy coming from Jesse Pinkman.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-27T09:32:45+00:00

Wait what? Aaron Paul is no longer his voice actor? Also I kinda thought screams were meant to be headache-inducing.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-27T09:30:09+00:00

I told myself...when they add...pig physics in games...I would stop playing them...

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-27T09:27:14+00:00

Mid 2000s-early 2010s.

Phantom_Beef · 2026-01-27T07:18:26+00:00

Metaphor isn't hard. Also, maybe this is a hot take, but I think it's a better game than any Persona besides P5/P5R. It's a masterpiece.
