The problem with Zoë’s segments is that the backtracking is too frustrating here, especially given her ‘gentle’ jogging pace. The story side throws up some powerful developments, and it is clear that the young girl will not just have a fight to recall her lost memories, but other powers are at large, watching over her recovery…and that is on top of the political complications going on in the background, as well as the saga of her (non-)relationship(?) with old flame, Reza. Switching to Zoë’s sections, in Europolis’ city of Propost, though, proves to be not quite as gripping. There is a lot of wandering back and forth required, yet it all feels extremely gratifying in the end, especially as this land is easy to navigate, even without the use of the maps dotted around. When it does come to the nitty gritty of puzzling, however, the initial location of Marcuria (fans of past games rejoice!) is not exactly filled to the brim with overly-taxing brainteasers, although betwixt the cavalcade of fetch quests, there are some intriguing moments, such as guiding a messenger in a different direction to catch him, or analysing people’s mannerisms, actions, and even smells, to uncover a traitor in the midst. It almost makes the puzzle element take a secondary role. The decision making element of Dreamfall Chapters is strikingly impressive and draws players into the tale, deeper and deeper, complemented by some fine acting performances from the voice cast and the stunning visuals throughout. The narrative throughout is so absorbing to the point where those in control really have to take stock of the gravity of certain decisions that must be made – save the life of an allied rebel fighter who holds a permanent grudge, stating that Kian will never be forgiven for past transgressions let a known traitor’s identity be withheld for the greater good of using her abilities for the upcoming battle torture a disgraced commander or release him and run the risk of him betraying everyone. It works well to balance out the two storylines being delivered so far, offering up much more about the stoic soldier’s personality and his inner struggles with the new position of acting with the rebel army against his own people, the Azadi. In Rebels, more emphasis is put on Kian Alvane’s escapades than that of Reborn, where Zoë was the primary focus. Damn! Strange thing, reloading doesnt help, he always spawns in the potion stall.Book Two of Dreamfall Chapters flips the roles. I think the inaccessible one is the traitor. Two of the passengers are stuck in the stalls. If I blame the wrong guy it'll affect the rest of the story too much. Unfortunately that is still a roadblocker. Is there a special trigger for making him appear that I might have missed? I've been scouring the place as thoroughly as I possibly can. This suspect 4 is nowhere to be seen on the market. Suspect 4: Camphor or lavender odor - closest match: lavender oil scent - most likely the traitor in the first playthrough, there was another one:
DREAMFALL CHAPTERS REBELS SKIN
Suspect 3: Blistered skin - closest match: pale skin - not the traitor Suspect 2: Unfamilar Tobacco scent - closest match: familar tobacco scent - not the traitor Suspect 1: Heavy, wet breathe - closest match: erratic, shallow breathe - not the traitor Hmm, similar problem for me: there are passengers, and even some suspects (three), but the traitor him/herself is missing.
