The best part about Llewellyn is you can't even teach him how to swim before you send him up.

Mazed posted:Llewelyn isn't super-great for us to keep around, but in pure roleplaying terms he's got one thing going for him as one of Odin's own that Belenus does not: He fell in battle. However gracelessly, it counts for something, and since we as chooser of the slain are trusted to make this call, let's give him his due reward and send him to the gods. Hold your sleipnirs there buddy, it doesn't say he died in battle. It just says he died.

So uh, what reason do Arngrim and Mystina have to distrust Hrist here? From their perspective, they were materialized from the aether to see someone who kind of looks like Lenneth, only that she's wearing black and she's kind of brusque in ordering them around (although it's not like Lenneth is Miss Manners either). I mean, yeah, the player knows that this isn't a good thing, but how do the einherjar know that? Why are they totally cool getting bossed around by one death goddess, but react with hostility at one who's almost exactly the same? For all they know it's just a change in management.

I guess the better question would be: what reason do they have to even give a poo poo about Lenneth, the cold robotic chooser of the slain who literally holds their souls and calls them out like pokemon whenever she needs something killed?

Endorph posted:Because she isn't cold and robotic, which is the entire point of the game so far. I'm not sold on this, especially from the non-Lucian einherjars' perspectives - which amounts to getting punched in the dick at the Valkyrie's behest, and who knows if they even experience anything when they're not materialized.

TooMuchAbstraction posted:Also, for a cold robotic chooser of the slain, she sure ends up doing a lot of stuff for other peoples' love lives. Witness Yumei, Llewellyn, and Belenos. "Yeah sure you can see your distraught, mourning loved ones for a few seconds before I shove you into the divine pokeball". To me that doesn't seem like she particularly cares about them, or that it's some big sacrifice on her part. Sorry guys, the game just does an awful job of showing that there's any kind of bond between the einherjars and the Valkyrie beyond servitude. It's still a good game, but the writing and story are definitely not its strong suits.

Yeah but none of those things strike me very much as "going beyond the line of duty". It's like a millionaire donating a penny to charity. I mean yeah it's generous, but only by the most basic definition of the word.

I just think it's a little weird (and lazy on the part of the writers) that they immediately react with hostility upon seeing Hrist. Of course it's not implausible. It's just dumb.

Most of that just stems from the fact that Yoshitaka Amano is literally incapable of not drawing blondes.
