Chronicle # 1 : The Taxidermist SPOILER thread

Same rules apply... I suggest you complete this chapter at least once or twice before reading this thread :smileywink:

 

So what did you think?..

 

You'd think after visiting the Taxidermist, that Madison would know better than to visit the creepy doctor during the actual events of the main game... :Lol:

 

I found it a case of, you know exactly what will happen... but it kinda defeats the purpose of playing the DLC to not have a good look around and then reach the inevitable face off...

 

I played twice before and got both a good and bad outcome..

 

First time I died while hiding behind a door, and getting into a knife fight... one botched QTE and it was all over for me.

 

Second time was a lot more exciting... went into another room and tried to get out a window and couldn't... hid down behind some stuff... when he was up the other end of the hall way I tried to get out but he caught me... Somehow we ended upstairs we ended up downstairs and I tried to escape the house a couple of times, and ended up in the garage twice.... the first time I couldn't open the door and ended up back in the house, the second time I found a chainsaw... and well, you can guess the outcome... :smileyhappy:

Re: Chronicle # 1 : The Taxidermist SPOILER thread

Oh yeah this is supposed to be a prequel isn't it. Kind of funny how she can die in it then :Lol:. Thanks for the thread kiwi but I'm not really sure spoilers are a big deal in this one since it's so short and you pretty much know how it's going to go down right from the start.

So far the endings I've found have been Madison killing the taxidermist in various ways, the taxidermist killing her in various ways, escaping on the motorbike and having the taxidermist go back inside and kill himself, calling the cops and having Madison die but the cops come and arrest the taxidermist. I still haven't figured out how to leave them both alive and have him arrested.

My first play-through ended with "In the middle of the horror" - Madison can escape through the garage with Leland White oblivious to her presence, and if he does become alerted by noise - it is still possible to slip away unnoticed.

This was so much fun it just let me wanting more. I have all 5 endings done and I still played it 5 or 6 more times. Sneaking out without him noticing was the hardest ending to do.

You have to sneak to the phone making sure he doesn't notice you and hide in the cupboard till the police come.

Re: Chronicle # 1 : The Taxidermist SPOILER thread

I went for the garage while he was taking a *****, he heard the noise, but just walked up stairs trying to find me while i got away lol, havent played again though. It's fantastic, really cant wait for more chronicles for the other characters, having more investigation with ARI and norman would be sooo sweet.

Yeah, I think Jayden and ARI are the natural step for the next DLC... I also see some potential for Shelby, but I really can't see where they can go with Ethan.. Hmm, 15 min of Ethan playing happy families.... yawn, lol...

Maybe Ethan will realise he missed a trial or something.. haha

My first round The taxidermist heard the creek, so ran to garage and managed to escape, then he killed himself..

I've managed to get 2 so far, has anyone managed to escape through a window or anything? haha

I wish she could've thrown the birds at him

Re: Chronicle # 1 : The Taxidermist SPOILER thread

if you want to figure all the endings out your self dont read the following:



the first time i got stabbed, running back up the stairs (horror movie styles) but called the cops before hand so he got arrested
the second time he heard me but i got out the front door while he was looking for me up stairs.
the third time i got stabbed in the neck trying to get out the door without calling the cops so Madison is a missing person.
the forth time i chainsawed him to death in the garage after calling the cops.
finally i called the cops and hid under the bed waiting for them to arrive. man my fingers where sore after that!

that got me all the different endings, be warned though, he does different things each time. he went to sleep the first time, another time he went in and started cutting the body up and another he went to talk to his stuffed friends lol. i thought after the first go that he did everything in the same order. so i wasn't prepared for him to walk into me hiding down from his bed room lol

Re: Chronicle # 1 : The Taxidermist SPOILER thread

kiwiatlarge. I think it shows an interesting quirk of Madison's personality, she usually throws caution to the wind to get the scoop rather than the question of why would she goto the doctor after the taxidermist happening. Likelihood is she has prolly put herself in harms way more often than we've even seen in the game lol. If you think about it, Ethan could've very well been a psycho aswell, she was putting herself at great risk then too trying to get close and figure him out.
