3 things:
1. For those who had their stats pushed above the cap, what were your original stats?
2. Do shepards of souls have any good options down in hell?
3. Do the soulless or the soul merchants have any benifits?

I did not read the requirements specifically enough, so the train made it on time -even though I'd sabotaged the engine three times- because I spent one more turn exploring rather than leaving.
Like, I had the option to leave, and be late. But I waited. And therefore could only be on time.
.
I really, really want to have delayed the train, and hope there will be a option to reset this story with fate

Also, this story is so atmospheric and utterly chilling. The slow build of menace is terrific. No wonder FBG have been saving Moloch Station in a back pocket...

As do I. I am looking forward to playing the whole season over again so that I can experience alternate endings.

A wonderful story, I enjoyed the trip. Though the lack of choice in the mystery's resolution was moderately disappointing.
[spoiler] For those wishing to see what happened in hell or how the descent went, I have both echoed in my journal [/spoiler]

What is up with the commission?
Both options in the study seem to have the same information. I wasted about 4 actions clicking because I thought they must have reordered and I clicked the same one again. I realized that one had some additional information but since they were both labeled "The price" - once you clicked on it, it was confusing at first. So what is the point of there being two?

I'm glad that wasn't just me. I thought I'd just hit the wrong one twice.

I really enjoyed playing through this and having the chance to make decisions about my fellow passengers. Very creepy and old school mysterious! I am really looking forward to the next chapter!

Err, so is the interaction when entering *that place* bugged? I believe I gained something like 30+ levels shadowy, bringing me up to a slick 138
Also, any thoughts about the relevance of the [spoiler] greek imagery when descending, especially so Dionysus' Thyrsus and Zeuz's adamantium throne? Mentions of fallen princesses also point in the direction of our dear Traitor Empress Victoria[/spoiler]

I find that especially intriguing in light of a certain Bloody-Handed Queen which can be rescued from a Destiny based the chess dreams. Except, I'm not sure if this is her when upon descending, she recognises you as not one of her own.
I'm more alarmed at the fact that Hell can apparently smith Law. Also, in light of what process earthly bees are involved in to collect honey I find the idea that Devils feed on the red honey-distilled SELFHOOD convincing.
Either way, between this, the Museum and a certain encounter in the Sunless Sea I'm beginning to see the Liberation of Night, like many revolutions, is just another proxy war that uses ideology to advance the hand of greater powers.

Oh this was absolutely delightful. Exceptionally well-written, very atmospheric, and with a lot of memorable moments and and great mystery to solve. I am ecstatic.
[spoiler]I especially enjoyed the little emergency stop in Henlys. I loved the mystery surrounding the Piper, now that is one of Hell's princesses I would most definitely like to see more of.[/spoiler]
So far this has easily been my faovurite season, I can barely wait for the final story and then the thrilling conclusion.

I'm rather annoyed by the fact that owing to a lack of clarity of the exact qualities needed and what action advanced each one that I not only missed the chance to sabotage the train, but also missed the chance to descend as well. And now I can never go back.
It really ruined my immersion into a story I was enjoying quite immensely, unfortunately. Hopefully it can be accessed again in future...

Indigo Clardmond - A kind-hearted Notary that is also a member of the C.V.R. And good friend to the Rubberies. And close to the Urchins. A gentleman of many talents. He is most definitely not secretly an imp of an existential nature. That would just be silly.
Vazio Solus - A broken, bitter Correspondent with a sick relationship to the Truth. Defiant to all, even in the end, as the Gate was opened.
The Luminous Orphan - A dazzling young Doctor of legendary charisma, weaving powerful Celestial imagery while she studies the form...'a star' would certainly be an appropriate way to describe her.

[spoiler]It seems nothing comes of Descending at all. I do wish I could have sabotaged instead, that would have been much more satisfying.[/spoiler]

I admit to being confused by people getting such different results during the emergency stop, because in my playthrough, I had plenty of time to do everything. I sabatoged the train 3 times, talked to everybody, sabatoged it one more time to use up an extra action, and then Descended. I wonder how we all ended up with such different results.

I went into Hell. It was fun. We had tea, it had weird honey on it.
It didn't increase my hellfarer though. 7/10, would recommend with caveats.

I felt the same way, this was a great story that I thoroughly enjoyed. At the end I took the plunge and went through the gates of Hell, and was very pleasantly surprised with the results. I was expecting to end up paying for the experience rather than the other way around!
