Santa Monica

Tricks required:

• Circle jump fence skip to get early Astrolite
• Stair skip at the Oceanhouse
• Explosive damage boost at the Warehouse

Intro

This sequence is supposed to introduce the player to the basic game mechanics, but for speed it's skipped. Dialog options with Jack are: 1, 3, 3, 1. This does skip getting the lockpick, so it will have to be purchased before the next quest (required item).

Astrolite

To start, grab the 3 bloodpacks in your apt fridge, then grab the money out of the drawer. Leave the apt and head for Trip's Pawnshop to buy the lockpick. Now head down to the pier and circle jump over the fence. (**Optional** hitbox shift to trigger the level change from under the stairs since it's slower to try and walk up manually) Once at the beach house, jump the fence to alert the drug dealers. Either punch the glass or get them to shoot it out, then grab the Astrolite and head to Mercurio's apt. You'll have to go through 2 conversations in a row here (the initial meeting and coming back with the Astrolite). Dialog options are: 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 for the first convo and 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 4. Now that you've completed 2 quests at once, it's time to leave Mercurio's apt and head over to The Asylum.

The Oceanhouse

Once you enter The Asylum, Jeannette will start a conversation. Regardless if you tell her to fuck off (3, 2, 1) or ask for her name (1, 1, 1), you'll have to make 3 dialog choices and speed through the same amount of conversation pieces. Once she goes up the elevator, talk to the bartender. If your persuasion is high enough, you can use the blue dialog choices (3, 3, 1). If it's not, you can still get access to the elevator (3, 1, 1, 1) but it'll take an extra dialog choice.
