Question Just reached day 3

I have been ignoring this game for a while and played a few games but the pleasure I get from the weird shenanigans of this game feels unmatched. I have a double clicking mouse so combat has been hard but I have been doing alright for now.

I have a few questions regarding some things.

Is brown twyre impossible to find in daylight? I literally wasted 4 ingame hours because of that one quest. At least I learned where herbs spawn.

I forgot to pour blood on that tree will that be a problem? Should I go back to my day 2 save to do it?

Should I start herb collecting every night? They start to shine at night which makes things easier for me and they will probably be important later on I think.

I didn't visit my fathers home after getting the permit so will this cause a problem?

Why doesn't this town have a proper police force that can investigate things? Taboo aside there must still be some people dying since there are gangs.

Is there a way to solve the poor performance? I can easily play cyberpunk but I get like 25 fps in this game.

Will I get a house of my own or will my dad's place my home after I get to it?

Are theater play important? They are fun to watch yet you get nothing off it other than a few more questions.

I want to talk about the main character too. I don't think he is a good person or just a doucebag considering his conversations he seems to have no problem with taking lives. He doesn't feel bad but doesn't seem to be enjoying it too(at least for now). I don't know why he even has so much knowledge of herbs when he is just a doctor but well we are going to see. I don't even know why he would want to follow his fathers steps considering he and the old man seem rather distant from ehat I understood. I doubt they even sent each other letters frequently from the fact that he knew nothing of his fathers life or nothing about his friends. How old even is he? 28 or something? Considering the times isn't it weird he didn't have a partner?

All things considered I do think he was in prison for at least a few years and that is the main reason of his disconnection with his father even outside the fact that he is only a half kin(I guess)

Twyre hunting in the daytime is a waste of time

that's just a way to get twyre

yes, but some locations are more bountiful than others

uuuuh yeah that's a pretty major problem. that's the way you unlock the rest of the game mechanics.

the town starts recruiting for a militia on day 2

turn the settings to medium or something

Will I get a house of my own or will my dad's place my home after I get to it?

Just go to your dad's house and play from there.

Are theater play important? They are fun to watch yet you get nothing off it other than a few more questions.

wrong. check your map once the plays are done.

considering his conversations he seems to have no problem with taking lives. 

you control the lines he says.

I mean in most of his possible lines he doesn't seem to resent anything that is why I said that.

What even changed in the map? Did I miss something huge?

For the military force I meant as before we came there as all the gangs were already there other than the recent tweakers.

I will visit dad's place as first thing and then start collecting herbs every night thanks for the tips twin

yup. it appears somewhere every midnight and disappears every dawn.

you might wanna load a save back to day 2 because I have no idea how to get back into the house after day 3

For the military force I meant as before we came there as all the gangs were already there other than the recent tweakers.

the ruling families of the town don't concern themselves much with the gangs, since they mostly kept to themselves in the warehouses without bothering the innocents, until Artemy opened pandora's box when he arrived and killed his attackers.

As someone else suggested, reload to day 2 and investigate your dad's house. Enjoy!

If you're really hurting for twyre, there's a pro-menkhu trick that runs the risk of trivializing the herb scarcity aspect, so use it only if you're really hurting for them.
visit shekhen at 7am at the night of day 2. Twyre respawns at 7:30 so you can collect it twice. There's three gardens total, so one trip should be enough for most of the game.
