Hello Six! Can you help a disco elysium newbie? Finally ready to play this masterpiece but not sure which attributes to choose at the beginning and which skills prioritise, if my main goal is befriend Kim as much as possible. I'm not sure if specific playstyle will have any influence on our relationship and kinda scared to fuk it all up in a long run, so will be happy to any suggestions *-*

hey, newbie! welcome to DE hell. :D

so idk if it's my Midwestern Dad disease or what but i'm gonna start with, don't be scared about fucking it up buddy, it's a game, you're gonna be okay.

if you're hoping to befriend kim, good news, it's pretty hard not to! as long as you're not a racist dickhead, mean, or stupendously corrupt, you'll be fine.

if you want to go absolutely cuckoo-bananas, you can check @morgue-xiiv's FAYDE for everything that raises or lowers your reputation with kim.

i don't wanna be too specific and spoil surprises for you, but here are some general tips:

if you save early and often, you can reload or replay if you want to make different choices

you can improve stats and learning caps throughout the game, so beyond "try not to have a 1 on a first playthrough" don't sweat your starter stats

with high INT stats, you'll impress kim with what you know

with high PSY stats, you'll notice more of kim's thoughts/feelings through empathy and esprit de corps

with high FYS stats, you'll pick up info about kim's fatigue levels and notice little physical details you might otherwise miss

with high MOT stats, you and kim will be able to nerd out about cars et cetera, and you'll understand more about kim's reflexes/reactions

so basically, as long as your playstyle isn't "racist assbutt", you'll get where you wanna go. save often, and enjoy the journey. :D

Greebo’s eye opened all the way, and he began to growl softly.

“You sure you know what you’re doing, Esme?” said Nanny Ogg, reaching for a cushion to throw. “He’s very protective of his territory.”

You the kitten sat on the floor and washed her ears. Then, as Greebo got to his feet, she fixed him with an innocent little stare and took a flying leap onto his nose, landing on it with all her claws out.

“So is she,” said Granny Weatherwax, as Greebo erupted from the chair and hurtled around the room before disappearing into the kitchen. There was a crash of saucepans followed by the groioioioing of a saucepan lid spinning into silence on the floor.

The kitten padded back into the room, hopped into the empty chair, and curled up.

“He brought in half a wolf last week,” said Nanny Ogg. “You haven’t been hexperimenting* on that poor kitten, have you?”

“I wouldn’t dream of such a thing,” said Granny. “She just  knows her own mind, that’s all.”
