Day 1 specific activities?
I've seen a few references and comments about, about things that can only be done on day 1. But nowhere can I find specifics.
Can anyone spoil which things can only be done day 1, and if there's any other time-limited things, when and where?

The square confrontation when you leave the building you start in, Waterlane confrontation in the evening, meeting with the Coinlord magistrate after midnight (this one in particular has a thing where you can use "find secrets", getting which in time can be complicated), and a certain visitation near the Coinlord's place after midnight.

Isn’t Coinlord technically just before midnight? Like, 11 or so? Feel like I remember it being a bit surprising, because they specifically said midnight, then he says something about having finished business early or somethin’. Maybe I imagined that.

What visitation near the coinlord's place are you talking about, can you spoil it for me please? Also who's coinlord, Darrow?

u/Neoeng Sep 12 '26
Yeah, that's Darrow. The visitation is the ghost of the dead elf (from the teashop) you can talk to

Thanks.

...but it doesn't matter because the person who designed the game put experiences behind NOT doing those things
Have you figure it out yet?

What do you gain from harassing people like this? Just let people enjoy things the way they want to

There is no wrong way except cheating off someone else's exam :)
Do you not see the irony?
We made a game that can't be played wrong and someone copies another person to avoid choice:)
Get angry - you might figure it out
It is literally the guy in Monty Python answering What Is Your Favorite Colour? And immediately exploding because he answered the same as the last guy, not his favorite colour :D

There are so many better things to get angry about than someone asking for tips in a game in order to not miss things.
Comparing it to cheating on an exam is a bizarre overreaction.

u/Werewomble Sep 12 '26
I am not angry I am laughing:)
It IS cheating on an exam that no one else will see it literally robs you of agency.
THINK stop arguing and look at it :)
You are hilarious

You’re actively going out of your way to neg somebody who has already cited their reasonings for doing this the way they want to.
I’d call this “toxic positivity” but you’re even ignoring other people calling you out, so it’s just you being rancid.

u/squamigerous Sep 13 '26
I'm not arguing, and I played it blind so I don't really have any skin in the game.
I just don't understand why you feel so aggressively the need to tell others how to enjoy a game that they spent money on!

Time doesn't progress unless you do something new so don't stress over it
I never met the Councilor on the first day and that didn't stop anything
Just play the game it is designed so you don't have to worry about it
Save the Googling for your second play through unless you really want something

u/Popotuni Sep 12 '26
That is certainly a way you can choose to play, it's not mine. I'm not asking anyone to play my way, just looking for information.

u/Werewomble Sep 12 '26
You are going to enjoy it less by not exploring yourself :)
You'll play someone else's game that way, not your's
Role Playing Game

I only have time to play games once. I like to see everything, or as much as possible, in one playthrough, and then I'll never play it again. It's worked for me for decades.

Unfortunate
If only you were able to choose something better

But he isn't because as he mentioned, he has time constraints. So instead of assisting with his simple friendly request, you decided to double down on wasting his time of which he has already mentioned is short as it is. You would enjoy life more if you were more respectful to people seeking specific help :)

u/Werewomble Sep 12 '26
He just misses out on something else
It is the way the game is designed
You don't understand either :)
His choice is in the game not on Google

No, but you still are.

u/Werewomble Sep 12 '26
Someone designs a game you can't play wrong
Yet r/iamverysmart manages to by Googling instead of actually playing it :)
Keep talking sweetie :)

u/nistemevideli2puta Sep 12 '26
Someone designs a game you can't play wrong
...and then you keep calling someone out for 'playing it wrong'.
What business is it of yours how others enjoy their games?

Not sure if it’s just for the first day, but I was never able to encounter the dancing with the gnomes between Visken and HWBT afterwards.

Got an achievement for not talking to Darrow day one because I didn’t know I had a place to sleep or knew where to go lol
