I got it.
Man. The writing. So good. Just started it, played for 15 minutes and the game is just so atmospheric right off the bat.
You start off picking your stats, and it seems very involved in how the game will react to you/you react to it. Like Planescape Torment or the first Fallout games where you put int to below 3. Only every stat has a massive impact, not just int. Once you pick the stats, you also have a special skill you can select out of 20ish? that further defines your character.
Woke up drunk. First investigation solved that I threw my shoe out the balcony. Failed hard at getting a tie off a fan and hurt myself.
Looked in the mirror and was disgusted, but decided that I was a superstar. Not a drunk. Went outside, got my shoe. Talked to a lady and hit on her and failed so I said "I want to have fuck with you", she then laughed and said I didn't know how to use words and asked what was wrong with me, to which I responded that I was developing a theory that I was a superstar.
The run is starting off good.
