    it just seems really frustrating to work on raising your shadowy in the flit without helpful quests that give you a lot of points for completion like in the earlier areas

    like yeah, i get you want to heist over and over but my shadowy isn't at a point where i can comfortably expect successes so what happens is I burn a lot of actions because each step in preparing for a heist takes 3 per and i may or may not be successful because even with a shadowy in the mid-70s i still only have like a 60% chance to succeed - and failure does nothing to improve your progress in heisting

    meanwhile when i was doing stuff in Watchmaker's hill there were like 3 quests i could do there that substantially raised my dangerous stat

    You can build casing in spite and use that for heists in the flit if you are so inclined. I think the payoff is better on the 3 action ones but the skill checks in spite for casing are probably much lower.

    My mission right now is to finish the university mystery for PoSI and it's taking aaaaaages. Great story so far though.

    Yeah, and, I mean.. People who want to make sure they don't fall into creating ethnic stereotypes talking about how best not to do so? Seems absolutely correct.

    a round table on how to improve ethnic & gender stereotypes should probably include members of those cohorts, so the whole discussion isn't garbage in -> garbage out

    I loved that game but my dudes will forever be stuck in that god awful optional dungeon at the end. They live there now.

    The DLC dungeon that costs a dollar?

    Totally forget. All I remember is going in there before finishing the game and getting mad lost on this moving grid puzzle thing. I gave up and when I came back I couldn't find my way out. Also there were fucking fights that took a good minute or two for every 30 seconds of wandering.

    I bought the dungeon like eight years ago and have never played it, so no basis for comparison, but that sounds like one that's already in-game. You're in a temple or something, it's a typical JRPG optional end-game dungeon with the strongest monsters and a super-boss at the end. Pretty sure I ended up just following a guide to get through because fuck those puzzles.

    But that wasn't the question they were being asked. It was specifically, how do they as filmmakers avoid it. They're doing exactly what people want by being more ethnically and culturally sensitive and explaining how they got to that point, and getting shit on for it.
