Hey just tuning in as a new reader! You pretty much sold me on Utage, I do have her in my own game but she's just been kind of sidelined forever.

I just wish that Kroos design was available as an alternate or even just rework of base Kroos personally. It's weird that they show it off here and then... have it entirely unavailable?

The storyteller might be sick because of a sort of "possession sickness" of sorts. Never thought of it that way before. I will note that he does seem to share Dusks color scheme if you look closely. It's most notable in the hair and the thing he holds has a dangly bit that's very reminiscent of the sword Dusk has (I hope mentioning that is okay since they're visible on the headhunting tab?)

I've come to like the Doctor, actually, but that's mostly due to background information in, say, Operator stories and other things. In the main story alone the Doctor is just... kind of there. Amiya basically being the Doctor's #1 fangirl doesn't really help the Doc feeling a bit off since it's not really properly explained at this point.

What is it with this game and the tiles being traps in the missions they're introduced?!

No, no, these tiles absolutely are stupidly placed if the game expects you to actually use them. They're too unreliable to actually finish off leaks. And I still "fondly" remember the defense tiles in the Skullshatterer fight.

Silence works against the splitting? Of all the things Silence works on, I never thought it'd that. It's the main gimmick (and difficulty) of the event for crying out loud! I wish Silence wasn't so inconsistent.

Absolutely yes. Even if we have her we can just not use her. Not having her makes it a lot more difficult if we ever would really need her, though.

There is no shame in using Surtr on this boss. This map is hell and trying to get it auto proof is worse. At least it's boss theme is pretty cool (That said, this entire event has kickass music). Also, Ash beating Drudge senseless is so very cathargic. Yami Fenrir fucked around with this message at 05:34 on Aug 25, 2021 |

Having Phantom myself but not having gotten around to building them I'd like to see them used. Other than that... Chiave just seems to be a worse Texas really. think I'll just leave the rest up to LPer choice.

For what it's worth I agree with armored casters being annoying and stupid. Doubly so for Elite Casters - I find it incredibly bizarre that spec ops casters only show up now, actually. Elite casters are very rude to beginner Doctors and iirc the game actually only gives you a tutorial on the stage after you first encounter them, which is just You'd think it'd introduce spec ops first and elite casters later?

Does Liskarm's talent work diagonally? I.E. did it restore Dusk's SP in that one map? Asking because I do have her, but not built.

Whoa, Blaze is a lot more angry in general than I expected. Just from her operator voicelines she seemed pretty easygoing, but she's kind of being a hardass in here.

Cooked Auto posted:Have to say trying to humanize Mephisto doesn't work for me at all. Only thing it does is making Talulah an even bigger piece of poo poo. Eh, I wouldn't call it humanizing personally. It's more showing a reason other than "for the evulz". Mephisto's still someone who needs to be set on fire. Now Faust, I'm actually trying to respect a little more. Just a little, though.

I like the writing of this (The Yeti Squad makes me actually feel a bit bad for Reunion, first time since Episode 1) but goddamn the timeline is a mess in this. I feel like it just jumps ahead and backwards at several points (such as when the Doc is stuck underground with Frostnova) and it is a unnecessarily confusing mess.

Octatonic posted:It works perfectly fine in context, but I have a soft spot for this kind of fourth wall breaking. That being said, if the doctor commands like some players do, no wonder they're a nightmare to serve under. I swear I never intentionally threw someone into the line of fire. Unless they're called Gravel. Or I panicked.

DM-EX-4 is probably my least favorite Map out of the whole event. Also this is the first time I've seen Myrtle seen, or mentioned, anywhere in a cutscene. Feels kind of odd actually.

Kal'tsit always stuck me as someone who's kind of stuck in the past. So agreeing to someone she worked with for a while show up and ask for help does make some sort of sense for me. In fact, there's a plot point latter in the event that I really want to talk about but can't yet. At least not in the context of the LP.

Heidi is probably my favorite character this event. Her design is... something though. It somehow looks pretty despite roughly looking like a see-through garbage bag. The only problem is that it looks like a see-through garbage bag.

Kal'tsit is clearly the transformed pet cat of someone from some precursor civilization so old it might be confused with gods. It's the only thing that makes sense at this point.  Also Mon3ter continues to be best girl.

And here's why Passenger is a massive moron. Kal'tsit: Breaking this will probably infect you. Elliot: DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO! *breaks the crystal* and now he's crawling back to Kal'tsit for that infection he gave himself completely unnecessarily. Also regarding that charm spell affecting Isin: I was actually wondering if maybe Kal'tsit is affected by something similar by Theresa. Theresa seemed to attract the loyalty of people far too quickly (i.e. W in Darknights) and from what I can tell, Kal'tsit may have joined her only fairly recently. And Kal'tsit seemed far more attached to Theresa than like, literally anyone or anything else so far.

Clarste posted:To be fair, it is quite clear that adult Elliot doesn't actually care about his infection. So it seems weird to say he is crawling back to her because of it. He literally says "I'm willing to throw away my political power and wealth for a chance to get cured" in the story, in this update even, iirc. Like sure he might be using it as a not entirely true reason to buddy up with Rhodes Island, but... he's still throwing away power and wealth. So I took it as him being more disaffected than actively not caring.

Clarste posted:He says that after "oh, I almost forgot" bored way, and the other characters immediately call him out on it. He then admits that it's just an excuse and he wants to see Kal'tsit again because he has no idea what to do with his life after completing his revenge. Hm, fair enough. Could be argued that he's just crawling back to her for a different reason, though Guess I'm just mentally blocking out most things Elliot by now.

Clarste posted:There is a ridiculous amount of unique portrait art in this event. Like, Elliot has different variations for hood-up and hood-down, for both child and adult forms, and of course all of Kal'tsit's costumes. Lillia has a lot of expressions too, and the faceless nobles at the party, etc etc. It is kind of getting old seeing Sarkaz Mercenaries as the generic evildoer fodder, too. I guess it's sort of thematic, but still. Where are all the Sarkaz that a) have depth, b) aren't already on our side in some way?

That last map caused me way more trouble than it had any real right to. I had to do some weird mega deathzone on the left whereas the right side was really easy... and I'm not sure why.
