Hokma Core Suppression [No Commentary]

This core suppression challenges the players ability to handle situations under a no pause condition. With Hokma's ability to kill or panic employees in the facility when pausing the game, this causes the player to ration how many pauses they use throughout the day. After the halfway point, the game speed will be increased every meltdown until the player reaches the highest meltdown level possible (10). This in turn can cause players to accidently pause the game under both Dusk and Midnight class ordeals, along with making them a bit harder for players that are unfamiliar with how they operate.
This one took me like 6 tries, all because Violet Midnight showed up 5 times in a row before I final got Amber and just flattened this core suppression. Violet Midnight is indeed the only midnight ordeal that rarely shows up for me, causing me to be very out of practice when it shows up under these situations. Now, is Violet Midnight hard? I don't really think it is, primarily because you can sit in an elevator and have your high class Pale resistant employees run around and destroy all 4 shrines (well all you need is to get rid of the Pale Shrine) without any effort put into it. I will one day find it again and just meme it, just like the other 2 midnight ordeals. However, due to mismanagement and other factors, it can amplify its difficulty quite significantly, especially if my employees were under leveled for this point of the run.
In short, Violet Midnight is not hard on its own, but pared with other factors, it can be seen as a very dangerous threat to ones facility.
As for the strategy, I just took this one slower then I wanted to. I primarily did this due to being out of practice with this one and I didn't want to have to do it 100 times to relearn how to do this one quickly and effortlessly. Anyway, certain ordeals can cause some problems, like the aforementioned Violet Midnight being Violet Midnight. These ones include the Crimson variants, being super easy but also fast at stealing both Qliphoth and Energy. The good old Violet Dawn can also be a problem if reacting too slow to them, causing them to burst open and reduce everyone's Qliphoth to 0.
Abnormalities that can cause issues are the Shelter, Flesh Idol, and other suitable use type tools in the game. These have the basic, you left them in there for too long and now you shall die type of abnormality. They also cause problems outside of the core suppression for both inexperienced and more forgetful types of players. However, this can be amplified by the effects of Hokma's core suppression.
Why the Train?
Why not the Train? I mean it doesn't do anything with my high leveled facility. Its also contained with Burrowing Heaven next to it causing me to have to look at the train. I am also using a secret strategy that allows me to not need to look at the train in order to know how many lights it has.

i love watching people play games that i cant play to get the slightest bit of experience as to what it's like playing it

[@AureliusTempest]

pain and suffering, thats what.

[@c26f]

there are 2 types of people who dont play lc yet know about it:
the ones with bad pc
the ones with no balls

[@edwinmedrano4860]

the ones with no money@@c26f

[@kymeruh]

honestly same, i have 0 interest in playing monster management sims and will greatly not go near any one of them (because i cant really keep up w that much kind of information + way too confusing for me to understand), and id rather watch another persons playhtough bc its cheaper lol

[@darksoulsismycity]

​@@c26fEven with my 16 GB of ram the memeory still kept leaking and crashing mid long story sequences after core suppressions. I had to install RAMMAP to constantly flush the memory. Constantly switching between the game and task manaer almost felt like part of the gameplay

*notices Express Train*
"Dear One Sin !"

[@angrymushroom26]

I like how at about the 8 minute mark the dramatic music slows down drastically. Still tense but the game realized, "oh they got this... well I guess it isn't as alarming and dangerous now."

[@Antonio-wh8lh]

In some sense Hokma’s theme song is more dangerous than the warning

[@darksoulsismycity]

All core suppresions play 2nd trumpet at the beginning until the 2nd qliphoth meltdown so it's true for all of them. Only exception is the trials which start with the appropiate core supresion theme (except day 46 which just plays 2nd trumper forever).

[@Herib104]

At the same he has the train *on the only supression with 2x speed locked*

[@somethinginventive153]

I always thought that hokmas first phase was kinda neet to look at but second phase is literally a seizure

[@somethinginventive153]

oh boy! time to go on Mr Hokma's wild ride of d e a t h!

[@eternaldreamerofsleep]

thanks, I was confused to why I didn’t complete Day 49 when I refined the energy. it seems like you need to do them twice, I forgot.
ah, why did you move around during Eternal Meal. I usually stay in an elevator next to Training Deparment and wait till they appear then kill them with no death.

[@grimxzag8759]

cause I am impatient

[@thedabisme61]

the fact you cleared apocalypse before this

[@hamster964]

Apoc bird is really easy, it doesn't matter if WN is in the way or not, if you dont have WN (or blue star) you can just dodge the roaming abnormality and focus on the egg that will not last long of you do that or if you have WN, you make an army of useless nugget with no stats and a nugget with a good armor, you gather all of your nugget close to flesh idol or 3rd march bunker (if you don t have them just make apoc bird spawn he decrease qthiloth counter on his own)and after WN spawn you just put one of the surviving nugget in flesh idol (if you still have the nugget with good armor) or 3rd march bunkerand you just have to wait that WN make the jobs for you or whatever abnormalities you have

[@bored-bt4nn]

I got hokma while in purple midnight and it was all disaster😢
