Evil Elodie seems like a good way to wash away all of that saccharine drivel ![]()

zonohedron posted:You can marry Kevan if you don't know his secret. It... isn't quite as heartwarming Yeah from what I remember there's two other epilogues. EDIT: Stuff removed at MegaZeroX's request. jonjonaug fucked around with this message at 01:58 on May 26, 2014 |

jonjonaug posted:EDIT: Also if you're cool with just showing off random epilogues, can you show off the epilogue you get if you banish Lucille at some point? It provides a nice bit of context which I think results in some interesting justifications for her actions. ![]() ![]()

zonohedron posted:It's too bad that you can't readily look at completed playthroughs' final skills (they don't get saved in the log), but I agree that 9 is definitely reasonable. 15 seems awfully unlikely. (So of course now I need to figure out how many I can max out...) You can max out 15. The amount of time it takes for you to max out a skill set that you already have a bonus to is 8 weeks. So, discluding the category bonuses (Social, physical, etc.), you would maxing out your 15th skill on exactly week 40.

I believe it's mechanically possible, I'm just dubious about actually surviving to the end that way. [Edit: I am on Week 31 of a "only use 5 skill families" playthrough. This is actually pretty fun.] zonohedron fucked around with this message at 01:49 on May 26, 2014 |

I love that ending. It's very heartwarming! Anyway... venture in to the forest!

Cats! Even if you're not doing full playthroughs, can you still show off the class descriptions? I'd like to see either the class descriptions for the Athletics category, just to see how long it takes before they advance beyond "basic math", "basic transportation", etc. or the descriptions for Agility skills, because despite those categories sounding useful, they rarely if ever seem to come up.

Success! I saved the day through the power of music, and maxed out fifteen skills, with 15.0, 34.4, and 33.4 in three more. ![]() ![]() ![]() (The other skill I raised in Week 40 was Divination.) In retrospect, since I ended up having five 'free' classes, I suppose I could have tried for another ending. Managing mood was actually the hardest part: I ended up asking Joslyn for a pep talk instead of having my agents do anything useful because I needed the -1 Afraid -1 Depressed!

idonotlikepeas posted:The worst part about the Briony thing is how many checks you have to go through just to even have the option of dealing with it somehow. Look at what MegaZeroX had to do to get to the party and get her to talk about it. 95% of playthroughs are going to involve Briony getting her stupid rear end killed because you're focusing on other skills. To be fair he took the most strenuous path to the party, which involves getting shot with an arrow, surviving, and going on to the party anyway because you are crazy.

Sindai posted:I guess the idea was that she no longer needed him now that it was too late to assassinate Elodie and have him inherit the throne. Unless I missed something. That's what I thought the first time I saw that (because I thought "hey, banish everybody, that's better than having someone executed!") but after seeing what happens when you accuse her at the ball, I think we're meant to think that a keythong attacked him because of how much magic she used to escape. (And then she didn't save him, because she no longer needed him.)

Thanks for showing off Kevan's path. One thing I like about this game is that it can get really dark on so many levels. I'm gonna go against the grain and vote for the Hella Yuri path. Suzaku posted:Well, THIS is super interesting so far. I really did not expect some of the subtleties the game is displaying on this path, like the change in Banion's dialogue o_O That's one thing that's really amazing about this game. There are so many dialogue changes and event changes based on actions you take. I'm glad that this LP is showing that off to people. ![]() Catalina fucked around with this message at 04:47 on May 26, 2014 |

To be fair, it's a bit easier to pull off when the game is 90% text. Not like they need to animate different scenes or anything. Still a good feat of writing, mind.

D3m3 posted:I personally would like to see a resolution to some of that Magical Dad Stuff we saw in our second play-through. I wanna see what's up with Joslin as well. Also, is it possible for anyone to die young naturally? I'm not too sure that the explanation for Elodie's mom death really sits well for me. Something's sus about that... ![]()

EagerSleeper posted:I wanna see what's up with Joslin as well. It's certainly possible; there's a few heart conditions that can go unnoticed until someone just drops dead in their twenties or thirties. That doesn't answer whether it's likely that Fidelia just happened to drop dead, of course... ![]()

Broenheim posted:Facing Facts: You have discovered the truth about your mother's death. "The palace healers say that there's a 25% chance you inherited the bad trait. They say it's like the way that sometimes peas are yellow and sometimes they're green. Your heart has a 3 in 4 chance of being good, but if it's not you're going to drop dead sometime before you're 40. You should probably have more than one kid."

(And then she didn't save him, because she no longer needed him.) Here's what I think Lucille's deal is, if you take some of Brin's events into account, and some other stuff that depends on Lucille's status. She's a lesbian trapped in an unhappy marriage with no way to divorce her husband, since he's the second in line for the throne. She was married probably not at her own choice, similar to Brin in this last playthrough, because she needed to produce an heir (and perhaps her parents thought that getting her to marry into the royal family was a marvelous idea). She's doing everything so that she can have Charlotte become Queen in your place, because the Queen seems to have mondo freedom in her choice of husband and overall lifestyle, and she wants her daughter to have the freedom she never had. She doesn't send bandits after you or send you poisoned chocolates if you make her a personal adviser, because she thinks that being in your inner circle may give her enough influence so that Charlotte may have a better life than she did (plus Charlotte would have access to magical girl training, possibly eventually obtaining her own crystal, which is also probably part of Lucille's goals). I may have some details off, but I think that's the gist of it. The main point, I think, is that she's doing everything for Charlotte and she REALLY does not like Laruent. Of course if we try banishing her, she decides "gently caress it" and just offs Laurent because there's no way she can get Charlotte on the throne now by using him, so gently caress that guy.

I would really like to see all possible deaths montage. I have a feeling it will be done at some point though. I'm dying to see if choosing to grab the letter that blew out the window gets Elodie a nice new broken neck. Also Death By Chocolate except literally. My favourite part of the musical playthrough was probably the realisation that if Elodie had just sat and done nothing when she got arrowed, she would have been perfectly fine. ![]()

Meditation is the only skill I never saw being used for anything, with high levels in it you can trigger a special conversation with Julianna but it didnt seem to lead to anything

For some reason I can't help but imagine(Given her high decoration) Elodie coming to the party all happy and normal, except for the large(Yet surprisingly tasteful) bandage on her outfit. "It should be disgusting, awful, horrifying." "But it isn't." "How does she DO it? Somehow it accentuates the rest of the outfit! Half the pattern is blood, yet it looks better than the normal pattern!"

She is (going to be) the Queen. It will almost certainly start a new fashion for fake arrow wounds among the nobility.

That, and it's in her side, remember? So it's probably underneath her cloths.
