How to unlock the Brollace Howtor achievement in Tails Noir - Definitive Guide

There are only eight characters who count for this achievement:

Banker (Act I, before the Bite)
Johnny (Act I, before the Bite)
Renee (Act1, inside Bite)
Ingrid (Act 1, inside Bite)
Clarissa (Act 1, inside Bite)
Superintendent (Act 2, West End)
Beverly (Act 2, West End)
Samson (Act 2, West End)

I alternated between saying my name is Howard (to Banker), Wallace (to Johnny), ... , Howard (to Beverly), Wallace (to Samson). I did not talk to anyone else, outside of these eight people, and the required unmissable people. When talking to anyone else you can just spam the A button to skip the dialogue. When talking to the above eight characters, don't skip the dialogue until you have said your name (and then you can spam A afterwards afterwards). The only character who can be an issue is Ingrid; if you choose certain dialogue choices then you will not have an option to say your name, in which case you will not get the achievement. If this happens just quit the game, and you will restart at the beginning of Bite, and you can try again.

The achievement should pop as soon as you say your name to Samson, just before you go inside with him.

EDIT: Before going for this, I recommend you delete your saved data. Under "Manage game and add-ons", go to "Saved data", select your profile, and select "Delete everywhere". These achievements are glitchy and a lot of people are reporting that if you don’t do this the achievement will not unlock.

Hmm, I used this strategy but it didn't pop. Does it need to all be done in 1 sitting? I had to restart the game a few times.

^LoneWolf, this game has a reputation for being very touchy and buggy with its achievements. You probably need to delete your save data to clear out any of your prior choices, then with a completely fresh restart of the game you can follow the guides here and get these side achievements.

@Flame Sama: Thanks! That worked!

I posted this in another guide, but if anyone needs help deleting game data on PC:

On my first playthrough, I went for this achievement, but I didn't use the names evenly. I ended up getting none of the achievements. I suspect this one may require you to have the dead even split on Wallace and Howard. I'm going to try soon and will report back.

Edit: resetting my save data and alternating names did, in fact, work. Thanks for the guide :)

Thanks Anagnorisis and Flame Sama, I updated my solution to recommend that people reset their save data.

Lonewolf, I don’t think it has to be done in one setting. I had to quit after screwing up with Ingrid and I still got it. That said, the run through to get it should only take about 15 minutes. My guess is that it didn’t pop because of the save data issue (please see my EDIT).

For the trophy, you need to introduce yourself with your real and fake names alternately (First Howard, then Wallace, then Howard again, etc.). Only the following characters need to introduce themselves:
  • Banker Panther (standing at the bank in Act 1, introducing ourselves as Howard)
  • Johnny the Squirrel (standing at the very beginning of the location in Act 1, we introduce ourselves as Wallace)
  • Rene (at the first meeting in a nightclub, he sits almost at the entrance, act 1, we introduce ourselves as Howard)
  • Ingrid the Dog (standing between the stage and the bar in the nightclub, Act 1, introducing ourselves as Wallace; this can be a problem as Ingrid will only ask for your name as a result of selecting certain dialogue options, to ensure this works, always choose the first option)
  • Clarissa (at the first meeting in a nightclub, sitting at the bar, act 1, introducing ourselves as Howard)
  • House manager (sits on the bench to the left of where you appear in the location, act 2, introduce yourself as Wallace)
  • Beverly (you talk to her after the conversation with the building manager, act 2, we introduce ourselves as Howard)
  • Samson (Beverly's son will direct you to him; located to the right of Beverly's house, in the building with the red door, act 2, introduce ourselves as Wallace)

The trophy should drop after Samson invites you to his apartment

The description of the achievement above is completely incorrect.
To get the trophy from all 8 characters, tell the truth only to Rene (that you are Howard); for the other seven characters, introduce yourself as Wallace.
According to the classics, all 8 Persians to visit:
- Banker (a must visit, standing at the bank to the left of the club. Company of 3)
- Johnny (conversation with the introduction will be available after talking with the Persian in the alley)
- Renee at the first entrance to the club (it’s hard to miss, she’s alone at the table (only here you say that you’re Harvard)
- Ingrid (to the right of the stage. Spam the first answer so as not to miss the opportunity to introduce yourself)
- Clarissa when visiting the club (sitting at the bar)
- House manager (sits on a bench in front of the house on the right side of the loca)
- Beverly (after the building manager. We go up to the 5th floor, apartment on the left)
- Samson (house with a red door on the right side of the location, will be directed according to the plot)
*the achievement fell during a dialogue with him or while loading his house
