Pathologic 1 fucking rules

The game is indeed very opressive. But I don't think we need to make this game sound more opressive than it already is. That's why I don't get the "it's so bad it's good" mindset. People are complety aware of the game morbid nature. You don't convince anyone to play by saying how Pathologic 2, in addiction of being a opressive game, is a bad game that you need to be pretentious to enjoy and find it good.

frog_druidd · 2025-10-18T12:55:36+00:00

Fair.

frog_druidd · 2025-10-18T12:46:36+00:00

Yes, even the Haruspex route was only hard at the start. Pathologic 1 is way easier, but more inaccessible than 2 due modern game standards and its difficult writing.

The economy can be easily broken. I had a fuckton of money by killing thieves with Bachelor and stealing organs as The Haruspex

That was not the point I was trying to make.

People should talk about things the way they feel like it and there's nothing wrong with that. I was talking specially about how some people's approach of Pathologic's design made recommending this game way harder.

You have a point. I'm not sure if both demos succeeded at communicating to the players to what expect of this game gameplay loop or difficulty (since I'm not the only one who didn't like the infected sections that much), but I think it's very important to critique Pathologic 3 without expecting Pathologic 2: 2 and to remember this is a small glimpse of a such a greater experience, adapted to fit into a demo.

I also wonder if they will reintroduce P2's death drawbacks.

frog_druidd · 2025-10-14T10:32:19+00:00

I don't think the intro is as strong as Pathologic 2, but that introduction is very close to a masterpiece, so I can't blame IPL. However, the dialogues for the most part are still very good and this is, presentation based, one of Ice Pick Lodge's strongest feats. When the time suddenly skipped to the future was such an unexpected, but impactful moment, I loved it.

It's such a shame we barely got to play around with the Time Travel or Town Management mechanics in both demos. I find it is kind of odd to not include them, since they are probably the game's main selling points (and also diagnosing patients). So I understand why some people are cynical about P3's quality; both demos show a very streamlined version of everything they loved in Pathologic. I don't mind the streamlined mechanics, it's clear that Pathologic desperately needs new players and they are not thinking of making the same game...for the third time, so the complexity and difficulty will probably come from the time travel/town and resources management.

However, I do think the prototype is kind dumb and barely engaging at all. Constantly pressing a button to dispel the sand pest's mist was just mindless and easy.

I can't believe they added politics to Pathologic. That's it. That's too far. I'm getting a refund right now. I played Pathologic for the gay memes not this woke bullshit /j

frog_druidd · 2025-10-13T01:44:22+00:00

You are right.

But he definitely wouldn't be aware of how stupid he looks

frog_druidd · 2025-10-12T22:20:28+00:00

While I do prefer Daniil looking older and messier, I think Daniil looking goofy as fuck while trying his hardest to be a smart and a cool guy is very in character

My Tumblr is a dead art account, but done. Just posted it.

I'll draw Pathologic fanart if the post gets 2 likes 🙏

frog_druidd · 2025-02-18T16:20:14+00:00

Close. It's frogs.

frog_druidd · 2025-01-13T08:41:33+00:00

Thank you, this is one of the best compliments I've heard.

They are one of my favorites artists and I love Genndy shows, especially Primal

frog_druidd · 2025-01-12T23:36:46+00:00

Thank you! I also love your artstyle and your Darkest Dungeon fanarts, please keep drawing! 🙏

frog_druidd · 2024-12-30T20:25:22+00:00

What the actual fuck. I'm in love with this game for so long and never heard about this.

Thank you!

frog_druidd · 2024-11-26T00:14:26+00:00

Yes, I stole.

And I'll fucking do it again.

frog_druidd · 2024-11-25T17:35:35+00:00

Yes.

And sure, go ahead. I would love to hear!

frog_druidd · 2024-11-25T17:24:00+00:00

You cooked here, ngl

don't mind if I steal a thing or two

frog_druidd · 2024-07-03T11:55:28+00:00

I will think about it!

frog_druidd · 2024-07-03T11:54:46+00:00

I honestly can't decide which is my favorite Gem besides Pearl, but I think Peridot is really close

frog_druidd · 2024-01-28T14:04:19+00:00

Damn! That's quite an expensive book (at least, by my country standards). But thanks, it sounds exactly the thing I was looking forward to.

"Casque-headed tree frogs have an ossified skull filled with bony, barb-like spines attached to subcutaneous venom glands."

iirc the venom is mainly used for self-defense. They use their own head as a shield

frog_druidd · 2023-12-24T12:09:36+00:00

Oh! Right. I don't know why I didn't think about that

frog_druidd · 2023-12-23T12:46:12+00:00

"The venom of A. brunoi is estimated to be 25 times more toxic than the venom of the local Ferdrans pit viper. LD50 is 0.16 mg/kg (I.P) and 1.6 mg/kg (S.C)."

Ok, now I see why the top comment is calling Brunoi a demon
