Lies of P contains 17 Gesture Locations. Unlocking all Gestures is needed for the Learning about Emotions trophy & achievement.
Gestures are obtained by playing through the story, by completing side quests, and by reading specific letters. Not all Gestures can be earned in this same playthrough as some are tied to giving specific Lie or Truth answers. Below is a list of all Gesture locations and how to obtain them in chronological order.

- Show Off Clothes: when you reach Hotel Krat for the very first time, speak to Antonia.

Get up to the rooftops and kill the two puppets, then carefully drop down the hole at the end of the second rooftop. Kill another puppet and exit the room on your left, then left again to enter another room with a white couch. Collect the Frozen Man’s Letter, then open the Collectibles menu (Letters) and read it.

Got Entreat gesture choosing Let Sophia live. Seems both options are ok.
FranciRoosters says
Thanks for reporting this. In my Truth playthrough, I didn’t receive it, so I’d assume it was tied to a specific choice.
Kubilay says
Pray emote is missable. If you defeat the Archbishop boss without handing over the Holy Mark to Cecile, she becomes a monster and you won’t get the confession as a drop.
FranciRoosters says
Thanks for reporting this!
Kubilay says
Glad i could help 🙂
Kingarzs says
Is swagger missable? I’m on ng+ and I just realized that I don’t have it. Tried talking to vengini and doesn’t give me an option for more dialogue.
FranciRoosters says
I haven’t tested if it’s missable, I’ll add a note to talk to him the moment you return to Hotel Krat after defeating King’s Flame, Fuoco
AgentDuke says
Yes it is missable. You either have to CLAP or one of the other gestures with Vengini to initiate that dialogue to get Swagger. I didn’t get it until NG+.
AHMED TALAL says
hello
i got the Greet gesture in my lie playthrough is that wrong ?
or i was should keep it to my truth playthrough ?
thanks
FranciRoosters says
If you’ve unlocked it while on your Lie playthrough, just keep playing to see which ending you get. In general, it’s better to keep it for the Truth playthrough.
Alex says
Beg is missable. I didn’t have any gold coin fruit on me when I ran into the Red Fox and when I backtracked a little later they were no longer there.
