Nah, I think Asylum (and LDepth) was great, my second favorite actually, but it is also divisive. The thing with Asylum is the most mentioned “flaw” is the map design which confuses some people. But I generally liked it because it was super dense in lore and the writing in that game was extra archaic which I extra love, along with a cast of interesting characters that were all fleshed out and a key part of the overarching and each-others stories.
Innocent Rules main story was incredibly mid, coupled with an extreme lack of any story telling via world interactables led to a very boring and empty world. It tried to do those character flashback things but they didn’t hit nearly as hard as the combined story of the Village in Asylum as they were all separate and felt they only served to try and make the characters interesting. Coupled with the god awful monster system that seems like it was designed to be as grindy and irritating as possible made for my least favorite late Hakika game by a wide margin.
Also, 1 feathered Ino is significantly less interesting than two feathered which is wild given two feathered barely had screentime. How do you have a game with Ino in it and not atleast mention the Star Dragon in any meaningful capacity. It could’ve realistically been any other light wielding magician and 98% of the story would work fine.

Exactly, Ino was not the main character the Parlates itself was. And I hope it comes into play later because otherwise IR was a glorious waste of time.
This level of Aura loss needs to be studied.

He lost his aura joke wise and stupidly probably canon wise is either Malice slimed him so hard that he forgots everything and is back to zero or/and (perhaps) the entire charade of Malice fighting Versa is canon as without the star dragon Ino is looking not so good in shape right now (I don't remember much now of ASYLUM, so correct me with this if it's all wrong tbh)

IR Ino is ASYLUM Ino after having his body rebuilt as a human by the Star Dragon at the cost of his memories since he died to Malice after siding with Versa

Ok, i always knew that Ino just got his memories wiped but i didn't know he will be rebuilt as a normal human, considering he looks like one in ASYLUM and i thought "Maybe he forgets everything else that his powers are probably gone temporarily" although he is called as a star dragon's phantom (iirc) Imma go get my tinfoil and theorize maybe that he becomes a human, this is probably why he loss so many of his abilities or has a weaker ability tied to the star dragon due well Ino being mostly human pretty much has less/severed connections with it (Theory? Perhaps? Tin Foil territory? yeah)
what happens to ino if he gets killed again and lossess his feather does the star dragon died for real this time

The original star dragon wouldn't be affected at all, due to Ino is fully separated from the star dragon

I mean the developer had to make a post where he explained some weird grammar he used bc the japanese couldnt understand it either, if the japanese themselves struggled bc of it imagine how the barely funcional MTL tool would fare lol
yeah lmao, Mtool was having a seizure trying to translate some of the things.
A few weeks ago there was somebody asking about the character popularity polls - there's currently one ongoing on Ci-en (with voting deadline of October 18).
oh that was me! i'm wondering what the results will be this time.
hopefully nazuna gets the number 1 place because she deserves it.
well, i was checking religiously from when it was 200 aprox. of translated lines, i know this is some quality translation and i am willing to wait. maybe it should be finished until next year.
