Thanks for the guide. I hate when story game forces users to replay it for 100%. This wasnt that great game and my time is more precious to replay something for hours just for +1 while it is not fun, so not doing it but thanks for the 18/19

[DeathHero®]

THX :D

[oku]

Yeah I thought it was meant to be a bit of fun to change clothes but the reasoning is that I just finished playing Disco Elysium and clothes make a big difference in that game.
Thanks!!

[Hanni]

Most choices are irrelevant. I'm not 100% certain but this should be one of the choices which don't matter.

[oku]

Just giving this a quick look see to get a general idea of things to look out for like talking to Grandpa every day I see you mention the type of clothing to wear. Does the clothing affect dialogue?

[Hanni]

You are welcome!

[NeverwinterMoon]

Oh, somehow the other guide didn't show up in the guides preview panel. There it said "1 available". Thanks a lot!

[Hanni]

Thank you! I know, the guide is full of spoilers - maybe this one suits you better! :)

[NeverwinterMoon]

Great work! But, in my honest opinion, it would make sense to make a separate guide just hinting on how to get the achievements without spoiling the game plot. Maybe mention just the missable achievements and pointing out the key points that could lead to different outcomes. As of now, I am hesitant about reading this guide, as it would clearly spoil my playthrough. I dislike reading walkthroughs, but I am very interested in reading hints on missable achievements. I am pretty sure I am not the only one with such a preference.
