AKheon | Deadly Premonition (PS3) - entering Becky's House uninvited @AKheon | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 8 minutes ago.
Becky's House is a place of interest yet largely inaccessible until the middle of Episode 2, so I spent some time figuring out how to access its secrets early. Contains some early-mid-game spoilers.
0:00 - New tech! Kind of... Apparently, this trick was known but never made public by spookycookies, then it was later independently found by me a few days ago, and now it's already been somewhat obsoleted by all the newer break-out tech that's been found...
Well, the gist of it is that any locked door with a short animation (i.e. the prompt says "Call For Someone") can be clipped through by lining up a shadow exactly behind York and then trying to open the door during an attack. It's another example of how tight spaces plus game trying to re-position York doesn't go over that well.
0:21 - Everything looks pretty normal inside the foyer even though it's night. Becky can be summoned for a short chat. And that's pretty much all you can do on this side.
1:08 - York decides it's time to get serious and prepares to invade Becky's House through the window using a peek break-out. This glitch allows you to use the location of a window you can "Peek" through as a literal door into a building, thus giving York a route to the normally completely insulated Becky's living quarters.
1:38 - Becky can be seeing crying on her bed, but you can't talk to her at the moment since a side effect of peek break-out that York will be invisible past the next loading zone, and an invisible York can't talk with people.
2:05 - In the bathroom awaits a gruesome sight: Becky's own mutilated corpse... No wonder she is so freaked out, the room right next to her contains her own predetermined fate.
The key to the safe is lying around can be picked up to open the safe. Unfortunately, the game doesn't know what to do afterwards, the screen remains dark and you're now softlocked. I tried doing this in numerous early Chapters (7, 8 and 9), but it was always the same result, which means that it's probably not possible to use this tactic to save time or skip things.
The trigger that makes opening the safe work normally probably only exists during Chapter 10, but you don't have free movement or possibility to spawn Sigourney in that Chapter, so this skip idea remains strictly theoretical and out of reach for now.
