Hey I've played the game on ps4 and ps5 and it's currently on sale quite cheap on the switch atm. Has their been any improvements from the orginal reviews was saying years ago? Just wondering if it's worth my time to play portable.

Is there much of a difference in quality? Or should I just finish playing the version I started with.

So, Just started this game. I recently finished the first diving mission under water. Doing some jobs for Thogmorton right now. But I have to say, as a person that deeply enjoys narrative games and Lovecraft in general, this game is just not exciting for me. The mechanics of moving are clunky, the enemies just kind of being random spawns is a weird choice for a Lovecraft style game, and the combat is awful.

So, am I missing the appeal? Is the game going to take a turn and be more interesting as I play? Or is this just not a game for me?

So I saved Glenn's family and got the murder weapon and the confession from him, but now it says I have the option to frame Milton Pierce by placing the gun with his dirty laundry and taking a picture of it. But when I went to Milton's to try, I couldn't place it, and it seems all I can do now is go through with having Glenn take the fall. Has the game locked me out of this option since I got the confession from Glenn or is there a way still to frame Pierce?

Really wish there was a way to get back into the open world without restarting the whole game. Now I have to play until Graham gives me the smg again

Hi all, I'm trying to do all the side cases and I can't seem to get Breaking News to trigger. I initially messed and didn't complete Through The Looking Glass before completing Deal With The Devil and missed the trigger for Darling of Fortune, but I have got that one now. I made sure to speak to Robert after Nosedive, got my reward for that, completed Through The Looking Glass before completing Deal With The Devil but still couldn't get Breaking News to trigger. The only thing I can think of at this point is completing Mystic Tomes (started it but haven't complete it) before going to the Oakmont Chronicle for Self-Defense. I currently have a save outside the Chronicle so any advice would be very much appreciated.

Anyone else notice this massive wylebeast in fleeing phoenix? Like, why is it so big compared to the rest of the stygians?

I've not attacked any person on the street but often end up shooting wylebeasts from the dooway because I can notice they immediately aggro me when I step inside. While I'm trying to survive fighting several wylebeasts, suddenly a copper starts shooting me in the back because I guess I'm a threat for defending myself from the eldritch monsters? Really lazy from the game tbh. And now I ended up shooting the policeman because he followed me to the house and just wanted to kill me.

Edit: It happened again and I ended up losing my sanity after a battle with that biggest wylebeast type because I had to shoot a policeman attacking me on the street.

Do I need a Nintendo Online subscription to play the game on Switch? The store states that you need Nintendo Online to use the save game cloud. I want to avoid buying another game that I can't play.

I just completed Fathers and Sons and I was wondering if I had missed something. When you begin putting the clues together in the Mindplace one of them says something that sort of indicates that Graham isn't fully embedded with the cult but when you go to the mansion you see one of the Brutus clones. To me, that indicates that Graham is in with them; or at least in too deep to break off once he comes to power.

Did I miss something in that? Or maybe I'm reading more into the clone presence than I should? In the end I sided with Brutus for this reason. While Graham seemed more amiable and his vision seemed to mesh more with how I'm playing in the end his involvement with the cult was too damning. Again, to me it was obvious he was a full-blown member. I'm curious what other people's take was on this one.

So I the fish market main quest is a little bugged right? I found a post from like three years ago where a few people were talking about how the mind Palace prompt wasn't going away after talking to the professor.

I have a question. I bought the game as soon as it was release (Origin exclusive) long time ago.

I'm thinking on playing again this game from start, and since i love to Hunt Achievements in games, i consider to buy it on Steam.

I've heard a lot of Stories about some licence and intern fights between devs and licenses owner and such things. I kind of don't care about the drama, my only questions are:

1: Is the Steam version amputed from some content from Origin ?

2: Are some of the Origins bugs being patches on the latest Steam version?

3: Does it have news bugs from later edition that i don't know since i only played on Origin ? (maybe bug born on gamesplanet / Steam)

4: In conclusion, would buying it for the Achievements pleasure would lead me to enjoy less than my Origin exclusiv possession ?

Hello guys, i am looking for something in the game and i can't recall where i saw it, and i would really appreciate if someone can tell me where it was / which mission.

The place was in a side quest i think. I remind that i was upstairs in a chamber / room, and there was a very beautiful rifle (kind of Winchester) hooked on a wall.

It wasn't a weapon that you can took for yourself, just a purely decorativ props on the wall.

Hope you guys can help me. I'm desperately looking in every house since yesterday without finding it...

I just started the game this weekend and as a longtime Lovecraft fan, as well as a fan of the Eldritch Horror board game and Arkham Horror LCG, I'm really enjoying the game. One question I have, that I can't seem to find an answer for, is what are the weaknesses of the creatures the game mentions?

Basically, in the Tutorial, it's stated that each enemy has a weaknesses but I'll be damned if I can figure out what they are. Normally in a game, after you fight and kill a few of the same type of enemy, your Bestiary begins to fill in but this isn't the case with Sinking City; I've killed quite a few enemy creatures so far and the Bestiary is blank. With ammo apparently being so scarce knowing the weaknesses/weak points of the monsters would be helpful. So far nothing in the game tells me what these are and every website just talks about the creatures in general but doesn't state the easiest way to kill them. Can anyone can point out where/how to find this?

So I finally got around to playing this game and I'm loving it! Just the detective and case mechanics alone are top notch (what LA Noir wished it could be) and the creepy Lovecraftian stuff is just great! Anyone got any spoiler free tips or advice? Not looking for anything specific, just kinda wanna chat about the game lol.

Hey all, I've gotten about 55 hours into the sinking city, and now for some reason my game just doesn't boot up past a black screen. I've tried googling it, force changing the resolution, blocking exe in my firewall, alt-tabbing on launch, and nothing seems to work.
I spent a hour last night trying to fix it, only to have it work perfectly twice with no explanation. Booted the computer up again today and it's back to not working...

Has anyone run into this issue and found a reliable fix?

I just stumbled upon the grave of Jason Allen Brooks while doing the side quest "Rest in Peace".

When interacted with it says: "Respawning in 3,2,1 connection lost".

Does anyone know if this is a reference to someone or something?

So im in the middle of the Quid Pro Quo investigation and im at the place where i either have to side with the EOD or with Cavendish

But the way its phrased either Cavendish is a desperate savior and Anna is a filthy liar

OR he's a psychopath and shes an honest benefactor.

I cant pick that he's a psychopath and shes a liar, which i believe is closer to the truth.

Does anyone know if PS4 save files roll over to the PS5 version? I accidentally bought the wrong version, and if/when the ps5 is on sale I may get. Thanks

Damn i'm really loving this game but oh my god. It's unplayable, That fish eye lens effect is literally making me sick. Is there some option to disable it that I missed. I'm playing on console so I can't just edit a .ini file

I really like the game but I don't play it at the moment because I just couldn't find out how to use the first aid kits. Could someone please help me? There are not a lot of game FAQs for this game played on the Switch.

Hi guys ! I was walking around in the cemetery when I found a closed gate in the south part. You get to it through a bridge. I don't seem to be able to go through it, does someone know if it's possible ?

I was wondering if anyone had their thoughts on it as I haven’t found much discussion on the internet. I am having a hard time with my decision of who to give the mirror to. I did both for the achievements

!The mother seems so far gone and just knowing that an adult is going to be stuck in a decaying child’s body feels wrong!<

!I don’t particularly like Mr. Throgmorton as I feel he isn’t the best of people. And I’ve read that when you check on them later they can be found eating a cake in the coffin with Albert standing there.!<

I hope someone sees this and shares their opinion

My friend recommended my The sinking city, she absolutely loved it, and we normally have quite similar taste for games. But I am on Fathers and Sons case and bored out of my mind. Most of the time I am confused, cannot get used to the controls and get killed by monsters almost immediately. So I hope to hear from you guys, what do you like most about this game? May be there are some aspects I haven’t discovered / figured out that will help me enjoy it more?

Do you guys think that Frogwares can republish The Sinking CIty on previous gen consoles? I bought the Lovecraftian Bundle on Playstation Store without realizing that the version of The Sinking City included in the package isn't avalable on PS4, just Shelock Holmes The Awakened.
