Does Violet Diaz ever do anything?

[StalkFire]

I'm kinda stuck, in the intro I did go to the Violet's home but who I think is Violet and the other will always respond negatively, am I forced to break in?

Plus, Kiara said she saw Violet at the King Lounge, but it doesn't seem to open at any time, is there a way to know when a store/place will open or not so I can try to find Violet here?

Yes you have to 'break' into the apartment but you have to be careful because of the other guy. You can try and sneak in to find his work schedule and see what time he leaves if he leaves at all then you can sneak in and nab violet. Or you can wait until night time when everyone is asleep and snoop around for evidence. You can pass the time by sitting on a bench

On my second playthrough I broke into Violet's apartment to arrest her but for some reason only her partner was there. I found a note with Onni's friend Kiara's address on it and having already warned her I went to her place again to check on her only to find that she'd been killed by Violet. If you could figure out how to set it up you could use that as an ambush.

I was doing some side jobs to pass the time (fruitfully) while waiting for her boyfriend/husband/roommate to go to work so I could confront her alone...

... imagine my surprise when I bumped into her in the street!

She was going to a restaurant. I handcuffed her in the bathroom.

So, yeah, she does do stuff.

The first time I only had to wait an hour outside her apartment for her to leave, running downstairs until she got winded. She's bent over, catching her breath, and I managed to finesse her wallet and gun before handcuffing her. Second time? She was in there for days and I gave up, broke in, and managed to arrest her in the middle of the hallway.

i bribed her partner to let me in on the second time

the first time i ended up accidentally trespassing and i beat her up as turrets shot at me and then escaped through the vents while crouching to dodge her gun

scary stuff

Okay thanks for the answers and your help guys! On my side Violet and the other guy never left ever, maybe I'll retry a game see if it works.

I hope there won't be too much "break-in" times, even if it's pretty cool and well done enough to be stressful, I'd like to solve murders without having to sneak in there homes everytime.

You can solve this one without breaking in at her home. You find lots of info around the murder scenes and in the computers (name, address, occupation, fingerprints, blood type, shoe size, gun receipt from gun dealer(that one glitched? for me. He didn't accept the password and 3rd time i tired he left and door was open and no penalty for walking in and snoop out the place).) Eventually you got all evidence you need need to arrest or have her arrested.

Thanks for the tip. Okay so it glitched for me too, I thought the gun dealer was a false lead because the password failed too. I'll retry !

Also, is there a way to know where to go in vents without always landing in someone else's appartment, it's way too much stress xD

[Kyle]

I actually had a bit of fun with this. I went the diner route and investigated Kiara

While I was interviewing her and digging around, Diaz actually showed up and murdered her in front of me. I panic'd.

"Only" if you got the blueprint of the place. Otherwise its crawling around while cosntantly open map to see how much of vents are "revealed" and freeze to death while doing so
Really not a fan of vents only going to apartments, so silly

Yeah after an eternity by doing the intro again I finally managed to land in a hallway instead of an apartment. But not gonna lie, it's mostly random luck xD, way too tedious to just go around and finally find an exit

[tzeneth]

I try to avoid the vents simply because of how slow you move in them which makes them horrendously tedious.

The trick I've learned from this mission and have subsequently used is what I call the knock and arrest. You knock on the door, get the right person to answer and then run around them and handcuff them. More than a little entertaining and makes the arrest missions easy while saving me lockpicks.

I literally arrived at Kiara's when this happened... shows me for dawdling I guess!? I wondered if it was scripted (I guess it is but on a time limit) so it's nice to see it plays out slightly differently for different folks.

You call that dawdling?

She was already dead when I got there. Cops had arrived, apartment cordoned off... didn't even consider the possibility that I might have had a chance to meet her...

Thanks for all your answers guys, this game is incredible and the world clearly lacks of immersive detective game like this. So even if its kinda tough on some points, it'll probably get fixed sooner or later. Have fun everyone !
