You know I was actually on your side with whole "I don't care what the creator thinks I'll interact with art however I please!" thing you were doing earlier, but I don't understand how you can think that and switch to wishing his ruin because you didn't like a part of what he made and then trying to dictate the "Proper Way" to make a game.
I'm starting to believe that you actually care *too much* about what he thinks. Just bypass everything like you said you would instead of coming in here and complaining about it.
I, at least, would not fault you for that, even if I think you get more value from meeting art on it's own terms.

Tsukasa loves poop! Time to add a scat tag!
See, if they made THAT a puzzle answer all would be forgiven.

Nah I know, It's just this hasn't happened lately cause everyone was busy sharing their theories about the game and game updates topics

Only if yout are actually aware of what you are getting yourself into.
Pathologic 1 stretched the mentality of artificial difficulty as a "means to and end" to a breaking point, all the while not indicating that it's full of so much pointless walking without knowing where you actually had to walk to more often than not. It is one of the reasons - together with the poor state of release outside of Russia - why the game remained so obscure in the first place. Pathologic 2 at the very least clearly states (begrudgingly added after a patch I might add) that the high difficulty of the game is the intended experience while also providing you with information on what you potentially have missed with the simple press of a button. This sets your expectations right from the word go.
If you get thrust into a situation that feels vastly different from your set expectations it can quickly feel like an unfair shift with barely any room to adapt in, then people will inevitably feel like their experience took a turn to the worse.
On a note regarding the game, I did certainly enjoy the update and surprisingly hunting for clues, with the exception of a single riddle which left me utterly stumped and I'm absolutely not a fan of solving riddles in the first place, so if even someone like me can get gratification out of hunting for clues despite not being an inate fan of it, that should be considered some praise.

Book 9 depends on what you picked for calm/callous/concerned during some past event that I can't remember off the top of my head. If you picked calm like me, you won't be able to use the "unlock all puzzle answers" option. But eating 10 live squids works.
Either way, done with that trash. Ridiculous to have to study a porn game like a text book to progress. See you all next time there's a reset or maya event (who the fuck knows what that'll look like now). I'll be back to bitch about how the writing is interesting, but the game design is god awful and the creator is able-ist.

the whole "it's ableist to make a game the way you want instead of making it accessible to lowest possible denominator" schtick is so overdone.
It's fine not to like the puzzles but I don't really get why you go on insane rambling rants about why you don't like them. Especially when you can just look up the answers fairly easily.
Better to have puzzles that might stump a few people and admit you can't do them than to have skyirm tier puzzles where a literal crow could figure them out.
The more ableist thing is requiring sound to get past a "puzzle", making no mention of this requirement, and then telling your fanbase not to give answers to anyone who can't progress because of said disability. Bit of a dick
Ideally the game shouldn't have puzzles at all. They really add nothing of value (and take this from a great VN to an okay one). And if it has to have them, there should be a means to solve them without having to lookup answers. Infodumping random factoids at random points of the game and then requiring those answers in the future without the context is just trash tier design.
Thank
