VN Ren'Py Giant Guardians [v0.3.92] [Giant Guardians]

[Malanga tanga]

I'm curious, how do y'all think the characters in this game would react to space? I mean do they have modern knowledge of space or medieval knowledge.

Medieval society in our world had a pretty good understanding of astronomy as it was important for most activities (determining seasons without calendars, navigation without a compass etc.). GG is set in the early modern period for the most part and the countess from Homaspernia wears glasses, so lenses have been invented->telescopes->better astronomy. Combine that with magically enhanced senses and yep, they definitely understand stars better than we did back then, and probably understand space itself.

It's one that appeared in Yakuu's route, Tyra. She looks like a cheetah girl, given her hair. The innkeeper though that appeared later looked a lot like Nyxmay, my assumption is that she's a vampire.

Wait a second, Tyra is an innkeeper too, she owns the one on neutral territory. I don't remember vampire one though, is she in Yakuu route?

They may know that there are glowing spheres up in the sky, but im sure they have no clue what vacuum is and how the atmosphere works. Telescopes only allow to watch space objects, not explore the space itself. Back in medieval ages people used to think that the whole world spins around the earth, including sun, so just having telescopes doesn't allow to learn much.

Ah, it was Naya's route, that's what it was, must have gotten them mixed up.

And then there’s Actual Heaven with angels and goddesses… which presumably means there’s a hell and then there’s the void and other goddesses

true, since Eliette gave the MC a summary about the gods of the world in a conversation.
possibly leaving an existential doubt in the MC

and it's also part of my crazy theory of why the world of giant guardians is in the warhammer40k universe.

It's still under investigation but I'll get it.

It all comes back to Warhammer. Would explain the eternal wars tho. Also, I know guest characters are basically ancient history by now but. There's a nude front and back sprite of the dog giantess from the guest characters. Which I always found odd tbh

That there's a nude front and back sprite, or nudes of her at all? My assumption would be that they just make a clothed and unclothed version of every character upon creation- it took three years to see Madea's nude model.

Now you made me curious

Things is tho. Not all characters have nude sprites, and yeah I can understand the Madea one. As well as maryen having them but we kinda did see them when she is changing clothes while the MC is asleep. Still makes me curious if they had an H scene with her planned before they scrapped the guest characters

Let's be honest, wh40k lore is so fluid that everything can be in that universe, even ultra marines fighting actual furries.

If there is an actual heaven and hell along with spirits of nature, gods of void or even elements, then we are dealing with a very complicated divine structure. It makes me wonder, is there any hierarchy? Like maybe gods of heaven and hell are above gods of nature for example?

Let's hope Giant Guardians doesn't try to gaslight us into believing arbitrary retcons too....

 

[Malanga tanga]

Wouldn't be surprised but yeah

Well… there is an Actual Heaven because that’s where Eliette originated.. and she speaks of angels and goddesses that are in Heaven itself… they’re also other goddess in the world besides the ones presiding in Heaven…void,nature, ect… Furthermore, presumably since theres a Heaven, we can presume say there’s A Hell…

A hell too, too bad the ones most deserving wont go there for millennia.

All homaspernia girls except maybe Val and MAYBE Makla.

Debatable...If she was the dragonness that Eliette fought in that town she wanted to massacre......Maybe if we get more info on her, then we'll see.
