So, Caitlin had a morning visit after the first dream with Yona, and the background music didn't change until after Caitlin's visit finished. Not too big of a deal, but it wasn't exactly sexy-times music.
I didn't suggest a person from a modern-technology world. I suggested someone from a high-tech world. A world of higher technology than ours, perhaps even a cyborg or other more advanced technology. We have a pirate with a bit of "witch blood". Piracy is not a general fantasy staple. We have a succubus, elf, mageling, orc. The succubus is borderline but these four are pretty common fantasy fodder. If we fill the house with a dwarf and a hobbit, the game is sunk.But it took someone from that world to reach it. Before he came along, even people with the same ability had no idea his world existed other than a vague idea that there are worlds no longer within reach. You also have to account for the fact that none of the mages seem to know anything about modern science, and that would be totally out of the question if a futuristic world existed within reach. This game does a pretty good job of staying consistent with the idea that we the player are the futuristic character. The things we do in daily life are seen like a strange magic to the other characters because they've never seen anything like it before.
Also keep in mind the start of the game. Some kind of incident involving a poorly understood energy source tore our character out of our world and caused/awakened archmage level power in him, and is possibly the reason that world can be reached at all in the first place. Even when going back and said to have the power to rival the strongest of mages, our character is limited in where he can appear. It wouldn't be impossible to have a futuristic character, as a similar event could theoretically happen in a world more advanced than our own, but it would have to be a totally different situation and explanation from how the rest of the group were brought in.
Personally, I like how it is going so far. Modern technology is amazing, it just gets taken for granted more often than not, so I really enjoy getting to see the little interactions and exchanges that come from having fantasy characters and magic mixing with a unique magically modern setting without having the fantasy characters originating in the modern setting.
Sounds like an explanation to fit a conclusion.Well because he has been to it so he's connected it's like an internet connection .
Confirmed dwarf.i just found that yona is an orc (another muscle girl). possibility that next is monster girl or slime girl? or even a dwarf?
(gonna skip until update for cait / lyn)
What do you mean "piracy is not a general fantasy staple" ? Elder Scrolls, D&D and even in LOTR (as far as I can remember I never saw a Kraken outside of fantasy, well maybe in Jules Verne's but it's still very "fantasy" like) plus it was already said (I think) that there's going to be a dwarf. I really think you just don't have the same vision for the lore as the dev mate simple as that .I didn't suggest a person from a modern-technology world. I suggested someone from a high-tech world.

Just a tad like what you're doing ain't it ? Just because it was shown that he could reach HIS world you immediatly assume that he can reach all the world, while inside the game, when you travel, Rae always ask to picture a place the MC has already been to, or if he hasn't it means she is guinding him through ether and I very much doubt she has ever gone to a spaceship .Sounds like an explanation to fit a conclusion.
Unlikely otherwise Rae could have confirmed the date with Naomi and not just Caitlin. Also the etherwalk sequences with Naomi suggest she needs to guide to her world when Rae/Caitlin could if it were the same.Actually all this lore talk made me wonder ZanithOne are the girls from the same world ? Aside from Rae who seems to be traveller there is no indication (to my knowledge) indicating either of the cases .
Actually, I believe that Caitlin and Naomi are both from the same world. The University is there while working towards finding Naomi's crew.Unlikely otherwise Rae could have confirmed the date with Naomi and not just Caitlin.

You know, even though I saw it, it never really occurred to me until you mentioned it. We don't really have any conclusive proof that we have been going to different worlds for any of the girls aside from the succubus, but she came to us by accident. They could have all come from different places in the same world. Makes me wonder what else connects these girls aside from catching each of them when they were about to die. As far as I recall, all of them but the Elf have shown magical potential or heritage, if we include the Orc's connection to spirits.Actually, I believe that Caitlin and Naomi are both from the same world.

You forget about the magical barrier she had placed on her door when she first arrived. She has the ability to use it she just doesn't show it for whatever reason.As far as I recall, all of them but the Elf have shown magical potential or heritage
Wouldn't be the first fantasy universe where elves are just inherently magical, so might be the case here.You forget about the magical barrier she had placed on her door when she first arrived. She has the ability to use it she just doesn't show it for whatever reason.
Whether inherent or naturally talented that would mean she has both the potential and heritage. The one I was responding to implied she had neither.Wouldn't be the first fantasy universe where elves are just inherently magical, so might be the case here.
And you are correct, I did in fact forget about the barrier. So that means each girl, not counting the succubus as she ended up stuck with us through different means (even though she seems to fill most criteria, even having a connection to the world in question), has some form of magical potential, were about to die when the MC caught them, and possibly come from the same world.Whether inherent or naturally talented that would mean she has both the potential and heritage. The one I was responding to implied she had neither.
You can still throw Rae in even though she got brought there by accident. As a succubus she is born with magic because her world is right on an ether node. Magic is a very part of her being just like it is for all Infernals. The only other beings that we know that are like that are the creatures in the Sealed Sound which are sealed away for the good of everyone.And you are correct, I did in fact forget about the barrier.
