yes, i hacked the camera and checked afterwards and said no illegal activity.

for lenox, i asked around, asked him core city, asked pasquale, went to core city, got the info on the spectres, went back to sgs, checked the medical records and the proof of the missing needle, had pasquale do the autopsy, reported all to lenox: the spectres, morde's identity and history in the spectres, cause of death and the needle as the weapon

for hercules, i gave the proof to gene but everyone said it's a completely viable option

do you have to know about cornell and the cube before doing ANYTHING on these quests? because I first did ohad zander's quest, reported on cornell to tanner and then completed the other two and still jack doesn't give me the quest to meet azif...

I wasted 4 hours on this. I tried every possible solution deemed as optimal for Jack, and i still get the "I'll contact you later" response.

-Told everything right to Abram about the embassy
-Busted out the woman silently in the second Abram quest, no encounters

-Did the Hercules quest without confronting the guy
-Did the foundry quest by persuading the warden to talk to Todor and convincing the sheriff to let him go and not telling he could be a snitch
-Did the Lenox quest with asking everyone possible in SGS and Core City, collecting all the evidence and stuff explained in the wiki and NOT telling the "he had problems at SGS" and NOT confronting Mordre

Still not good enough, and basically, one of the reasons I replayed the game was because of the Oculus story arc and now I'm fuming with frustration. This is just nitpicking to the maximum, how the hell would anyone complete this without spoliers? I can't complete it with spoilers either, so I might as well consider it bugged.

I'm necromancing this epic thread for more analysis.

During last playthrough I started to wonder whether the Underrail system is located in a real-world area.

1. There's Kokoshka being from Russia ( ) or some other central- or eastern-European country. He says he came from Western Underrail.
2. There are these Nordic dudes (JKK). Oculus computer says they came from East Underrail.
3. North Underrail seems to be a generic place with no particular origin to be discerned so far.
4. Similarly South Underrail isn't location-specific.

If Kokoschka is from Serbia and Gunnar from Norway, there's no real-world hypothesis to be drawn for Underrail to be in Europe.
OTOH if Underrail is in North America, it makes sense.

I'm also having thoughts about Ezra and why he is stationed in SGS in particular, when Tanner ends up trying to steal the cube, but this part is clouded so far.

Supposedly that's where some Biocorp members settled down after the mess went down. I'm also paying 20$ for an on-disk "punch Ezra" DLC.

I am necromancing it once more, since I got a few theories of my own. Playing Underrail as a Serbian person really can be amusing in moments. A lot of the NPCs are named proper Serb names, so we might assume they in fact are Serbian. In addition, there is a guy in the Zone in Core City that says "bre" in his dialogue all the time. You can even ask him what does "bre" mean, and he says it's a word with no lexical content and is used only for emphasis, which is exactly what it means in Serbian IRL. He also states he comes from a place torn by war. Now, if supposedly, the Serbs are from western Underrail and the Nordic people from the east, you know what just might have happened for the game's location to be plausibly in Europe? Maybe the cataclysm on the surface was so big, it shifted the magnetic poles off their mark. In Underrail, there is no way to tell which way is which, so the compass is the only thing you can trust. This theory would also explain North Underrail being the USA as well
