Some FH: Retribution Guides
Sup gang! Here are some guides I made back during alpha/beta season, mostly just notes about what choices affect certain hidden stats you can use to craft your Step.
I highly recommend playing blind a couple times first just to see how consequences play out naturally before diving in. These obviously contain huge spoilers.
They should be mostly up to date, but I may have missed one or two things. Feel free to drop me an ask with any questions/issues. These guides just show dialogue choices and the affected stat. Everything is more or less in chronological order outside big sprawling areas (therapy/auction/endings).
Scar Guide - Remember setting your Heartbreak scar in Rebirth? In Retri, it's now a hidden variable that essentially tracks how well your Step is dealing with their trauma. Affects some flavor/variables at this point. Please see the last section for notes about the Suicidal scar, it's very different in Retri. Scar and scar level affect flavor throughout the book. <50 is considered low scar. Scar cannot get below 0 or above 100, it will revert to either if it escapes these bounds at the end of every chapter.
Clue Guide - For Rebirth and Retribution. Tracks how well your Step is doing at staying under the radar. Please note Ortega has 3 separate variables, Sidestep clue (oc), Puppet/Sidestep connection clue (ortega pup), and Puppet criminal clue (pup proof) . Herald does not have a clue stat at this time, he's too good for this world. Also includes clue for Special Directive. This stat affects flavor throughout the book and endings. 40 seems to be the magic number for most changes in flavor/consequences for Chen and Ortega.
Rangers Doubt Guide - hidden stat that tracks how much the Rangers are starting to chafe at the status quo. Does not have any pay off yet, will be used more in the future. Some Rangers will be easier to convince than others.
Puppet Variables Guide - Covers Puppet Comfort Variable, Puppet Individuality and Puppet Precognition.  PCV is how comfortable your step is in their puppet body and it affects which body you end Retri in. Puppet Individuality tracks how much your Step treats their puppet persona as its own individual personality. Precognition is how much you lean into your puppet’s boost powers.

fellas, is it gay to accidentally confess your long-withheld feelings towards your best friend in the heat of an argument?

Chargestep is so so so so good bc. okay. it is two people who care so much about the other but they are constantly terrified throughout their relationship. for entirely different reasons. also they think they know absolutely everything about the other and that they're being kind/generous/evasive/sneaky while not talking about it, while actually they know absolutely nothing about what is going on w the other person. except they do know them and they know them so so well. except that they never knew each other at all not really. and theure terrified ! constantly! and its related to the Things They Will Not Talk About so they are both just living in constant quiet terror for/about the other person while also being some of the most paranoid people alive and desperately trying to be Fine for the other person. until things are not Fine and they argue and - is that really all we do ? argue ? yes. but also no. they are so so bad and so perfect for each other i love them. two people w something deeply wrong with them

You couldn't stand the static, and one day... it will be a quiet comfort for you.

I used to think Sidestep was actually HG's baby sibling because they died in custody and I thought "hey what if they can't grow a whole body/had too low of a succession rate and just took dead kids who are likely to survive to boost drug and have no family and just revive them (like the regenerator) and put a chip in their brain" but the more I read Mr Ryden's answers about Re-Genes the more I think they just took the DNA from HQ's sibling cause their genes were a great quality candidate in the Re-Gene program. The only reason they did it is cause while HG had power, it wasn't enough to warrant a side eye /just/ yet
