Seuraavaksi lukeille pyrkii kaksi salaliitto-ajatteluun liittyvää artikkelia.

Ensimmäinen pohtii, voisiko SL-uskomuksesta kiinni pitämistä selittää Bayes-rationaaliseksi osana omaa ymmärtämisen yrityksen kudelmaa,

Toinen uunituore on SEP:n Delusion-entryn kirjoittajalta, ja kysymys koskee SL-ajattelun oletettua patologisuutta,

Eipähän tarvitse minun muuta lukemista tänään haikailla.

Finished watching several endings for #Pathologic 2 thanks to a very patient friend, and I can confirm that I fall strongly on the Nocturnal side of things. Well worth seeing both it and Diurnal.

I am so stupidly excited to watch my friend continue their #Pathologic 2 playthrough this weekend; seriously, what a fantastic game, and what a privilege to have someone who knows it well walk me through it.

Дажыў да 9 дня ў "Мор. Утопіі"! Гэта пакуль што мой рэкорд, але ў горад прыехала войска і агнямётчыкі не даюць мне праходу, хв як з імі выжываць
#Pathologic #МорУтопия

Спрабую перапраходзіць арыгінальную 'Мор. Утопію' і ўспомніў, што мне ў ёй больш за ўсё напружвала - не крывая баявая сістэма, а абыходзіць усе гэтыя бясконцыя ябучыя платы!

Але ў цэлым у 2023 годзе гульня адчуваецца даволі прыемна.

In my restless dreams, I see that town (exclusively referencing Town-on-Gorkhon)

Me, eyeing the Changeling route from across the room
"I can fix her"

#Pathologic

I've been trying to play #pathologic2 for awhile. Namely two or so years. Bugs and glitches have made it so hard and at times impossible.

But I still try. It's such a brilliant game. The definition of a flawed gem. I do not recommend it if you want a good time, but if you are up for one hell of an experience, this is it.

#gaming #pathologic

I made it through to the last day with 4 shmowders and the 6 panaceas, ready to cure everyone who may need it, but unable to cure my own mind after all the things I had done to get the materials in the first place. It was like climbing a mountain. Except instead of using my hands I used a knife and instead of a mountain, it was the bodies of people I had deemed "disposable." I may never recover.

#Pathologic #Haruspex

Day 11's final "trial" from Oyun, I knew I wanted the Changeling's assistance. What I didn't know was how awful I was going to feel about getting it. There was a moment where I loaded in to see Artemy's body laying on a slab, face covered, and holding a scalpel. I genuinely almost threw up. Then the changeling made me choose who should sacrifice a part of themselves so I didn't die for real. I really thought fisticuffing Oyun to death would be the hard part.

#Pathologic

Day 9 was the first of Foreman Oyun's trials (read: thinly veiled attempts at getting you killed), but the storytelling on day 10 where he starves you for the second trial and forces you to kill several people to survive, and so few of the shops have any food left anyway...It was genuinely so awful. I was determined not to kill anyone I didn't need to, so I ended up drinking a lot of water, which made completing the quests to get panacea ingredients even harder.
#Pathologic

Days 9, 10, and 11 hurt me in new and horrifying ways. If you thought it was bad that Artemy's first quest involved "should I kill this child or not?" then let me tell you, it gets Much Worse. One quest had me facing multiple pairs or trios of hostile kids who you have to kill in order to complete the quest. What the *fuck*? I was literally crying and so upset. It was like I was Artemy and I could feel all the blood on my hands. Terrible. Brilliant.

#Pathologic #Haruspex

this game activating my depression for real. I posted this on my tumblr last night, as a sort of wrap up for the day's...uh...work? Suffering? Definitely suffering.
"I had 61 hearts in my bag on day 7. I'm losing my grip on reality. The plague angels cannot touch me for I am no longer real"

#Pathologic #Haruspex

At the same time, living on the edge of the town, roaming the steppe, and being uhhh intimately familiar with the organs of every dead person gives a much different experience. So many of the townsfolk hate the #Haruspex, and his desire to preserve the town and the very alive land it's built on is so strong. It's sad to see this man coming home to the town he grew up in and have it reject him so strongly. Given how I've changed over time, I can relate.

#Pathologic

I'm almost halfway through my second playthrough of #Pathologic, this time I'm the #Haruspex. It feels so much more exhausting and draining and terrifying than the first playthrough. Probably this is because it's finished less often, so it's less discussed, so there's more secret things I don't know. I am using a guide because I'm simply trying to experience the story.
