Anyone got full list of options for Spectre of modernity?
All I seem find is short way to complete it, but I am trying find again path I unlocked special options to see if ending can change (it was with Jhon Malcom, options to go different places expect for island which his motorcycle couldnt go to, and meeting deer god)

And addition, this finding was when gehenna museum first opened, on mid game visit to city (in case that has to do with options available in that text game)

I killed the Spectre of Modernity with the deer god's antler after convincing it by telling it something about modernity ruining beauty. I was with the coffee guy though, that was named after soup or whatever it was, not the bike raptor.

I knew the wizard of crime was just an invention of the liberal media!

Also, no, I'm actually not insane, all of the aforementioned insanity is really in the game. Except for the liberal media, that's made up obviously.

What options you took to get those extra paths?

Oh man, let me try to remember... but honestly, I don't believe it's (just) the options, I believe it's the fact you're playing it for the first time that unlocks the extra options.

I tried following the same path, and a bunch of variations, at least 10 times in the demo (I glitched through the floor with mods); but I only managed to get it once. I assume the same is true in the full version.

So, as far as I remember (might be missing something or confusing the order):

1) Greet Jinny HD
2) Shut off Klaxon (which didn't work)
3) Play Guitar (which did work)
4) Check evidence or whatever it was called, not talk to the guy but check his evidence
5) Ask about when the Specter will arrive, which will make the coffee guy say something
6) Talk to the coffee guy and take him with you
7) Go to the island (though I think it doesn't matter where you go - none of these ever unlocked for me in the demo except for the first try and I only tried once in full)
8) Go to the... place where the deer god is (it's the only choice you have here anyway)
9) Tell the deer god about how modernity destroys beauty to get his antlers

10) Face the Specter of Modernity
11) Kill with antler
12) Profit

EDIT: Oh yeah, that's not entirely true, the choices here DO matter, or at least some of them do; I remember in the demo I messed it up by using the last option with the deer god, "say something about umami", which made the deer god laugh at me and I died to the Spectre by flailing around uselessly :D

EDIT2: I know it sounds weird but I'm actually not lying btw :p

Hey all, so I reached that text game and I got the antler at first play with a different path than the one described here.
However, any other attempt to play the game will not propose to go anywhere else than go kill the specter of modernity. Which means either it's a bug visible on my side, or there is another condition that I failed somewhere on my many attempts to get back to the islands

It's a bug. For some reason you can't revisit locations on retry. You are forced to use checkpoint restart
