Episode 7 start - hints and suggestions

Post by JFR » Mon Dec 04, 2017 6:21 pm

In anticipation of the long-awaited release of Episode 1.7, I thought I'd make a few hints and suggestions to help out folks who might have trouble finding the new material. It is not meant to include spoilers but I might give a few things away so am hiding it in "Spoiler Tags" for those who wish to discover the new stuff completely on their own.

Some new content "might" require starting from a very early point in the game. :twisted:

Is there any way for us to know exactly what the new scenes are and how to get to them?
I really want to see them all, but at the moment, I have no time to search for them :/

Thank you and congratulations for the great job!

Well, I thought I gave some pretty good hints but I guess a little more specificity won't hurt.

I've had a number of requests for short-cuts. BEW is not designed to be played quickly or easily and finding "the good parts" while avoiding the story is just not realistic with the complexity of the game. We can help with hints but a road map to all the new scenes would be very difficult and not really fair to everyone else who are enjoying the discovery involved in the story. For those reasons, I will not be giving a walk-through here. Other members have been working on something like that and might make their work available some time.

WARNING. Very broad hints and some spoilers ahead. Do not open the section below if you don't want that kind of help.

That's all I needed :)
I agree that this is a game that should be played slowly, but I have already done that and discovered all it's content before the new patch, so I just needed some guidance to where the new content is because I have no time to test all of the possible paths at the moment :/

Thank you JFR :)

Hey!! First of all, congratulations on the new release!! :D It took a while, but it's finally here.

On to the subject: How far can you go on the taxi scene? And I really need some help here trying to go for the best result.

I agree that the taxi scene is very complex, but also the one following it, given it is closely depending on a lot of previous things as JFR mentioned, but if you put the effort and time in, it is well worth it.
Another tip I would give is to investigate how the new Jasmine content may impact Emily's corruption path; you could find something fun in there... ;)

I'm making a guess, but it sounds like you are talking about meeting Azumi on Campus, which is Thursday night (Day 2) the new content is Wednesday night (Day 1)
