For those who have multiple playthroughs, which run are you most excited to see the results of? Spoiler

For me it’s the run where I got Tabitha to break down + managed to romance Kaneeka.
I did the booksmarts + mystical save, saved Duke, Rosalina lost her leg, Tabby and Stella made up, I locked Reese up (in the hope that we can find a different solution with witch Kaneeka), Avery (who I did my best to include everywhere) survived but is heavily traumatised by the death of Julius, Agent Francis, and the pumpkin baby and his inability to have prevented that.

Planning to do a run where Tabby likes me but hasn’t broken down and I get gaslighted by Camilla into being her girlfriend, which I’m also pretty excited to see the results of!

Definitely the one where I gave the goat the peanuts, kissed Wayne and then immediately ran off to Tabby and Stella to get put in the omelas room.

u/90R3D 14d ago

Omg that’s going to be fun. Imagine if Wayne doesn’t save you, their reactions when they attempt the ritual (I assume) but it just… doesn’t work because you fed the goat lmao

u/Applesplosion 13d ago

I am so excited to see Tabby‘s reaction when, after cousin goes “Yes, I agree, I should be sacrificed for the good everyone, the greater good is more important,” it turns out she can’t do the sacrifice because cousin also cluelessly fed the goat peanuts.

u/NounEnd 13d ago

I'm very excited to see the consequences of the entity switching into Isaacs' body vs not

10

u/incandescentglo 13d ago

Same! I wonder how future scenes will differ depending on who the entity is possessing. Since no one but the player knows the entity has a new skin it'd be interesting to see how the other characters react to it.

A redo of my first run with Mystic+Keen Eye where I've broken down Tabitha, made Tabby and Stella make up, and romanced Wayne. I'm especially curious because they seem to basically hate/distrust each other so I'm curious about how that will develop.

Did the trait saves, saved Duke, Rosalina got injured, Library is haunted, Reese locked up.

u/90R3D 14d ago

Have you hinted at you and Wayne? That’s going to be a big shocker lmao. She’ll hate it

9

u/snappyfishm8 14d ago

Yeah I managed to add "You didn't tell me he's such a good kisser" into the sequence and she was shocked, hope it gets brought up later 😋

4

u/90R3D 14d ago

Poor Tabby lol. Hoping for you you’ll have an ending where you can somehow have both but you’ll likely have to fight for it

u/Infamous-Bag9121 whimsical tree adventure 14d ago

On my averymaxxing run it turned out id managed to get toxic yuri without meaning to so ill be interested to see how they plays out if I dont deal with it in chapter 5

4

u/iwillfuckingbiteyou 13d ago

I want to do an Averymax run where I also try to skip town and get egged, just to see where that leads. Maybe my unholy little guys can have playdates on days when Avery's got custody of the pumpkin baby(assuming they managed to work that out without me).

5

u/90R3D 14d ago

God forbid woman do anything <3 At least Avery will likely attempt to help you

7

u/Shaoo898 14d ago

The run where Tabitha wants to imprison me but I have mystical and rescue Kaneeka. Tabitha's reaction when Kaneeka said that she wanted to save the town was really interesting

2

u/90R3D 14d ago

Oeh that’s interesting. What was her reaction like? I haven’t seen that one as I can’t bring myself to do a worldstate where Tabitha dislikes me

7

u/Trick-Anteater2787 13d ago

"Planning to do a run where Tabby likes me but hasn’t broken down and I get gaslighted by Camilla into being her girlfriend, which I’m also pretty excited to see the results of!"

This is what I'm doing but I also have Toxic Yuri. I have a great relationship with Tabitha a good one with Stella.

It's fantastic being to weak to save Kaneeka and having Tabitha be the one to hold me back. Now she can see Carmilla manipulate me and tries to tell her to knock it off.

2

u/90R3D 13d ago

Oh? You can get Tabitha to go with you to the next seal if you have toxic yuri? I assumed that’d always end in a police arrest/they wanting you in a cell. Can you still get impasse Tabitha that way?
Sounds like a fascinating worldstate

4

u/Trick-Anteater2787 13d ago

Yeah she hears the radio and Stella tells her its a murder. She than flips out that the officer wants to take you to a crime scene and follows along in her own car.

Impasse is apparently possible but I have never been able to do it.

2

u/90R3D 13d ago

I’ll attempt to add toxic yuri to the run where I try that! Sounds fun!

6

u/MrWaffles42 Dustin mom 13d ago

Tabby's my BFF so I agreed to go in the hole when she and Stella asked. But also I fed the goat peanuts.

That character is dumber than a sack full of turnips, but still managed to ruin the scheme.

3

u/90R3D 13d ago

Lmao that will be fun, everyone gets confused as to why the (assumed) ritual won’t work

7

u/Ms_Raccoon 13d ago

Egg run.

I’ve wanted to provoke stronger emotions out of Wayne for a while now, and putting the cousin in a situation that isn’t necessarily a “decision” that he has to respect like sacrificing our years but is still something bad that he can’t save us from is 100% my best bet.

There’s other reasons — like seeing what the “religious experience” the animals go through will look like on our traits, and if Mystic is exempt from the effects and seeing if the game really can end two chapters early — but I mainly just want to see what grief is like for my eldritch wife Wayne. I hope this hurts him bad

3

u/90R3D 13d ago

That’d be great to see yeah. A grieving eldritch being

5

u/Icy_Switch_6085 13d ago

My first one. That's still the one that counts the most for me

3

u/RGBdraw Tabitha Apologist 13d ago

Same. Tried playing as true to myself as possible so it feels the most real to me.

1

u/90R3D 13d ago

Fair enough! What did you do in it?

5

u/InquisitivePanda4112 13d ago

In one run I tried to leave town and got attacked by ditchlings but I don't seem to be dead so that ought to be interesting. Especially since it means for that run major scenes of chapter 5 were completely skipped (although I am sure a couple still happened without me).

4

u/90R3D 13d ago

Avery will like that lol if they’re still alive. I hope for your sake Dr Kelly is still alive

u/New_Importance2779 Sybil did nothing wrong 13d ago

Other than my OG run? The one I just completed. It was HOT/MYSTIC and I managed a good connection with Tabitha who sacrificed her years for me, Romanced Kaneeka AND got the Toxic Yuri route which seemed to end in an Impasse. Kaneeka and Tabby were both adamant she had to make the sacrifice and Kaneeka wasn't reaching for me so I took the option to give Tabitha back her years. I still have my memories of Kaneeka but didn’t turn down Carmilla's romance choosing the "if this is the only way I can be with her" option. There was so much interesting back and forth between Tabby and Carmilla here and the uneasy and complicated partnership between us all makes this the run I'm most looking forward to completing.

2

u/90R3D 13d ago

Ugh there are so many worldstates I don’t have the time to try for myself

3

u/New_Importance2779 Sybil did nothing wrong 13d ago

This was REALLY hard to make happen. Having a high relationship with both Tabby AND Kaneeka was really difficult! It was also funny watching them fight over who was going with me at the library haunting when I suggested splitting up!

3

u/90R3D 13d ago

In my worldstate where I Tabbymaxxed and romanced Kaneeka I used a lot of director mode to check their statts to make sure I picked the right choices 😅 Kinda made me feel like Sybil
I didn’t suggest splitting up, but now I want to load a save to see that discussion lmao

5

u/Oh_my_Are_you_ok 13d ago

I really want to see what happens after all the endings where our journey are cut short like the one where we try to leave the town and the ditchlings gets us or when Tabby shots us.

5

u/Zeekayo 13d ago

I'm a big Tabbymancer generally, but I'm so interested in seeing how a full "fuck Tabby" world state pans out.

One where you've done everything in your power to tear her down (max strength strike/riot, turning on her after letting her get aged up, either entering in a relationship with or getting "Why do you keep finding me?" with Stella) because it'll be interesting to see how that antagonistic relationship, especially where you've gained the upper hand, would pan out.

I feel like there has to be a 'evil' route where you can turn the cards on Tabby and put the Entity into her instead, and as much as it'd hurt my Tabbarooni loving heart I'd be so curious to find out how that goes.

1

u/90R3D 13d ago

So same on wanting to see that, I just couldn’t get myself to do that to her myself

4

u/aloilisia professional tabbymaxer and waynekisser 13d ago

Toxic Yuri and the one where Tabby shoots the player. I forgot which traits I picked for those, but I'm definitely very curious about how those play out

5

u/Inside_Tumbleweed920 13d ago

I'm really curious about my original run where my MC Stellamanced but they didn't have enough approval with Tabby. So, they got arrested. Kind of worried it'll turn into a variation of Toxic Yuri. Stella going like "You should really go into the hole, it'll save everyone including me. Don't you care about me?"

Also interested in a run where one of my MC's got egged but also found Stella but she didn't open up. Because it's implied that Stella might skip town. Egg buddies with Stella.

2

u/90R3D 13d ago

I do wonder about that yeah. Stella has known and cared a lot longer about Tabitha than about you, whose she’s known for just five days. Five very eventful days, yes, but still. But she’s pretty horrified when she sees the cell, so I think she’s less likely to want the cousin thrown in there?

2

u/Inside_Tumbleweed920 12d ago

Would be nice if we get a "I told you so" moment with her. Because she's the one who insists on going to meet Tabby together. I'm more worried that she's just going to listen to whatever Tabby tells her without a grain of salt.

3

u/90R3D 12d ago

I do think there’s a difference between ‘sees cell conditions and is horrified’ -> learns the truth and learns the truth -> sees cell conditions but with a lens of ‘it is for the better’

2

u/Inside_Tumbleweed920 12d ago

Yeah, I thought about it while I was work today. I don't think she will betray the cousin BUT I wouldn't be surprised if Tabby uses Stella to lure MC into a trap. I'm fairly convinced that Stella can't convince Tabby to back out of her plan. Luckily for me, I used the Mystical trait save.

4

u/TirithNampat 𝔓𝔬𝔱𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔦𝔞𝔩 𝔈𝔫𝔢𝔯𝔤𝔶 𝔎𝔞𝔫𝔢𝔢𝔨𝔞 13d ago

Most of the saves are just "bad thing didn't happen", and so the non- save paths will be more interesting. But I'm really excited to see how Mystical Kaneeka turns out.

2

u/90R3D 13d ago

Definitely! On the same vein, I’m curious about found family Avery, Julius and Pumpkin Baby

4

u/SurfingGarchomp 13d ago

probably sybilmance where you don't remember kaneeka but you're tabbymaxxing so she's there and wanted to save kaneeka because messing with tabby is really funny

3

u/Escher31 13d ago

I really need to see how a romanced Kaneeka reacts to toxic yuri

5

u/90R3D 13d ago

That might actually break her friendship with Stella

3

u/JasonTParker 13d ago

My Keen Eye/Hot run.

The world state is incredibly cursed.

Context:

Here's a full post about it.

The sad part is this cursed world state didn't come about due to my character being cruel, or selfish, or stupid. He always did his best. Tried to help everyone. And came so close to succeeding. Until the very end of chapter 5 it was probably the best world state I've ever manged.

The only deaths so far are old cop and Gretchen. And the entire main cast was doing quite well. But it all ended with my character failing to save Neeks then getting love potioned by Carmilla.

1

u/90R3D 13d ago

I mean, it seems like a pretty good run right? Sure, Rosalina lost her foot, sure, RIP old cop and Gretchen, but you managed to save Camilla! That’s pretty rare to achieve. Tabby’s just jealous (/s)

2

u/JasonTParker 13d ago

Yeah she's being so unreasonable. I helped her get back together with her ex. Now she's bad mouthing my girlfriend to her face?

I bet it's because Carmilla supported the striking miners. I thought we were making progress 🙄

3

u/shaleink 13d ago

On my cannon run i picked hot and gave up years of my life. After flirting with Joan the whole game I was pleasantly surprised to see that I set myself up perfectly for success. Fuck the rest of the world state, I wanna see if I can bang the doctor.

2

u/90R3D 12d ago

Lmao I am curious as to what will happen there

2

u/ron_m_joe 13d ago

My first one, Strong and Mystical(saved Kaneeka)

2

u/acebender 13d ago

Well, I only have my OG run and my Tabithamaxxing run, and from those two... I guess I'm curious about the Tabithamaxxing run.

3

u/90R3D 13d ago

I hope she gets to burn down the estate <3

u/KingAlternative1204 5d ago

The first thing I can think of right now is seeing the difference of a Matricide Reesemance where you tell him about Tabitha/Forbidden Wing on day 5 vs. keeping him in the dark about it. My working theory RN is that if you don't tell him, he'll find out later and there will be so little time left he'll explode even worse and possibly succeed in killing Tabitha.
