Daniel's Christmas Gift (Spoilers)
I have only 4 $ left and figured i can't buy anything at the Christmastree market. Do e NEED to steal to get away from there or can I leave the market without stealing anything? Spoke with Cassidy and she left but I now can't even go to Charles anymore. What do I need to do to leave without stealing?

I'm not sure, I did steal. But try just walking out...a scene with the car will play automatically (at least for me it did, but I stole AND bought something haha)

I tried but I can't walk away. Now I stole the stupid Yoyo... I'd rather draw something for Daniel that stealing...

I stole the yoyo too after I found nothing for 5+ mins, but there is another option according to the end cards...

The other option is if you have enough mony left to buy something. Why isn't there an option to not buy anything. Sean is such a good artist he can draw something very nice for Daniel. I feld so bad... at last the yoyo is JUST a yoyo and it was for kids in poor families so it actually was for Daniel, too in a way...

So you think the 3rd option is just for players with enough money to buy several gifts or who stole and bought a gift? Just gave it a second try, didn't see anything even with different dialogue options.
I'm certainly not happy that there is no no-gift option either...

Yea. It kinda sucks. I would be happy if Sean was able to leave some coin in the box were he took the yoyo.

You can take the yoyo, and leave something. I got that item for 5$(4$) and left it in box after taking the yoyo. I mean, I would rather have a yoyo than a christmas ornament.

If you tell the vendor that you are the Reynolds grandchild, he will give you a 1 $ discount so you can get something for 4 $.

I heard that if you say the right things to the vendor, he'll lower the price on the snowman. No idea how to get that to happen though.

I thought this really sucked, forced to steal a toy that isn't necessary... you seem unable to leave the area without completing the goal. Like, it would be one thing if this was something we needed - food, meds, and I had to make a difficult choice because last episode I decided I needed a sleeping bag, but for a useless toy?

Thanks for the tip. Restarted the scene to get the discount. Time rewind powers still working =P

You can in fact buy something with only 4$ left. Talk to the vendor and reveal yourself to be Stephen Reynold's grandchildren. Only tell the truth (which is stupid in this case, but ok) and the vendor will lower the price by 1$ which means you can now buy the cheapest thing.

It's an absolutely ridiculous scene, because it defies everything the boys try to do before by hiking through the woods to hide from the cops, avoiding public places as much as possible and shutting off from society.

I'm also very mad that you HAVE to get Daniel a present. They can't even afford food, so Sean has to leave the cabin to go steal and dumpster-dive, but suddenly you're supposed to spend what precious little you have on pointless trinkets ???

If anything, do what Daniel did and MAKE a present !!! Imagine how thrilled he would have been if Sean had followed Chris' advice and drawn the first comic page of "The Spirit Squad Adventures" ...
It is such a missed opportunity that makes so much more sense in the narrative.

But no, you either have to buy useless cr*p full price, reveal your identity (thus endangering yourself and your grandparents) or resort to stealing ....

Did somebody ever told how to do constructive critisism? I don't like the no option to leave without having a present either. But there are worse things I would ragequit about than that. If you realy don't want to steal the yoyo and quit playing it is completly your choice to do so, but in my opinion you are a little over dramatic here. In other games you have to steal to join sertan guilds and otherwise you can't have that content.

You have some own rule here how to feel and express opinions? I doubt that.

I think its stupid too that you have so little choise overall in these games. It forces to do stupid things like going to the market.

Somehow LIS series is much more engaging than almost anything that i played before. I really care about my choises and i would NEVER freaking steal anything! I never starved or whatever so who knows how desperate people get, but here its absolutely offensive to leave me no other options! I'm boiling!!!
And of course i cant quit, i'm committed to finish it despite it being bs political statement. Because it feels that my game choices matter even if they dont, way to many times it made me think and assess what would i do in situation at hand.

Yees it has and like I sad before I feel the same. But I also sad it is a little over the top to ragequit just because the game doesn't give you the options you want. There are better ways to show you don't like it ya know...

But since it is Hatti I am talking to I don't think that counts for him. >.>
