  It was very uncomfortable.

  Apparently that chair is a common soft lock people hit.

    The “union” leader is what makes me uncomfortable.

      More than his super racist guard? I felt like there was no way to handle this situation without disappointing Kim… which was not out of the ordinary in my playthrough but still… :(

        I think if you beat him in a fist fight, Kim is low-key impressed because he hates racist pricks.

        Nah, Measurehead is adorable. A native Revacholian playing ur-racist out of what he’s learnt on the radio while dating a “Kojka” he can’t have sex with because his own racism prevents him from getting an election in her presence.

        Evrart (and Edgar, though we never meet him) Claire are downright terrifying.

        Extremely intelligent, constantly ten steps ahead and in control (except for the tribunal, the entroponetic phenomena underlying the events of the game, the deserter, and, possibly, the Detective) even over the Wild Pines woman, extremely charismatic despite their appearance, and yet absolutely malicious and self centered.

        They’re like sharks, perfect, cold, inhumane, apex predators evolved to completely dominate their territory.

        Measurehead can never really hurt you. Evrart Claire can kill you by making you sit on a chair, and he’s fully aware of it.
