a question about ghosts

I have noticed our mortal zoi’s cannot interact much with the ghosts unless you use the bell but then sometimes the zoi’s ends up in a strange animation limbo.

They walk around like they are drunk / delirious and that animation sticks and it doesn’t matter how many times i have used the emergancy reset button the animation is not giving in, they will never walk normally after that so i always find myself going back to a previous save to skip.

I have even tested out with my test zoi to chat with the librarian and i have even allowed my test zoi to “camp” the library just to get a small hint of everything but nothing is happening.

I have seen places being haunted this is why i have been pondering about if it’s possible to communicate with the lost spirits .

They clearly need our help

There are some guides out there but they do not cover this part and it seem more like streamers are more focused on being the ghost.

So in all I am going to take a guess the ghost system is not fully operational yet and this is just a small potion in what is to come ?

Unfortunately it’s not really poassible to communicate with them much right now. There are improvements planned to the ghost gameplay (e.g. reincarnation) which I assume are coming alongside the new karma system planned for later this year. Your issue with the animation sounds like a bug, so you should report it in the bug reports forum.

Alright that makes sense in all thank you kindly for answering!

Yeah i think it’s better to wait until we get part 2 and if it’s all the same the animation and all i will contact support :slight_smile:

Yeah, I think you’re right tbh. The ghost system in InZoi doesn’t seem fully implemented yet — most interactions are pretty limited and feel more like placeholders than actual gameplay mechanics.

The “drunk walk” thing is definitely a bug though. If it sticks even after resets and only fixes with a reload, I don’t think that is intended, if you catch it on video please share!

I’ve also tried hanging around haunted spots and interacting more, but there doesn’t seem to be any real way to communicate with or help ghosts yet.

So yeah, it feels like we’re just seeing an early version of the system, and more features will probably come later.

I don’t think this is a bug, it’s more likely a game error. My Zoe in several different saves would hold funerals for friends who had “passed away” and each time she would start acting strange, as if a spirit had possessed her (she became lethargic and could barely move, constantly stumbled over invisible objects, and kept yawning all the time). Only restarting the game saved me from this horror.

Yes, what we have on ghosts right now is just a draft. But if you can, please report the animation bug! Did it happen in a recent save?

No few weeks ago but i kept myself wondering about if i might have missed out something and this “drunken” state only became a thing after my zoi used the bell but i could reload a previous save so i thought it was just because the system wasn’t fully operational yet and if we are suppose to end up in some sort of “ trance” to see or to communicate with the spirits i mean.. i figured i was going to wait until it we do have the ghost system but if i try again before we do i will post if i end up if my zoi ends up behaving the same :slight_smile:

For sure i mean we seem to have a lot haunted places i was so so surprised.

I can’t wait to see what they are planning for this.
Imagine the creativity that will come out of this :grin:

ps i figured i could pop in a quick follow up

I deicded to move my generation 4 back to Dowon this morning ( she has been given lots of indication of that lately so that made me think that maybe it was the best)

When she arrived i figured i was going to let her pay her respect in the memories of her late partner .. i don’t think the game fully remember what happend 6-7 months ago rl wise ( neither do i this is why i write things down ) but i have seen it remembers if your zoi have been going through something dramatic , the memories are still there but the memory bank cannot connect the dots and it’s fine i just think that it is fascinating and amazing that it can if you are having an old save ( i just find it so cool ) Back in the days I saved and uploaded generation 4 to the canvas and also moved out the save file when things got to gloomy

in InZoi years that would easily be like 10 12 years if not more ..

but in all since a random zoi nerd -.- thought my zoi dropped a free gift by the statue at the temple ground he grabbed it ( of course he did ) the whole idea about that she was going to pay respect in memory of him went bust ( of course it did) and with that i decided it was better for her to visit the cemetery

At the cemetery i allowed her to interact with a memorial stone to initiate the silent prayer, so what happened next completely took me by surprise my generation 4 managed to activate something and she saw souls wandering around for few seconds waiting for reincarnation the vision in itself only lasted for few seconds but it gave some insight

It’s going to be huge when they drop the second part of this.

It’s going to be dramatic without a doubt

Rebirth is a massive subject in itself..
