RPGM Katalist [v0.098.1 EA] [Tearycian]

[d2dacameron]

One last thing i like to mention is this.The whole minder event has some very heavy lore significance. Between the lines of philosophy yapping that he does about differrent topics (who i think might also hold some plot significance but its not too clear for now) Are these lines
View attachment 4942296 View attachment 4942297 View attachment 4942299
He goes to talk about not remembering selling his soul and the concept of true freedom when being demanded it by god or by not being given its blessing. I think this event is worth looking into with mtool some time (i just did but i would love to see some other takes about this sequence of events).

What are the identity of the multiple two's ? Dilan and Nalid? Bonnie and Katja? (maby a split part of their personality like Dilan (same person but kind of like how Dilan's personality is not that consistent either) Maby hes talking about Bonnie/Katja connection to Dilan and Nalid. Or about a connection towards an higher being we have not seen yet. Like some cosmic force of nature since hes also talking about gods. Afterwards the song "may we go round OGG" starts playing wich is also playing in other Katja events IIRC.

If you return to "Minder" after all the Verl stuff he gets covered in weird black goop, it confused me a bit.

He did say that his existance was slowly fading. "my connection to the world is slowly fading"

But I wonder if you being delivered the letter had anything to do with it maybe?

He is friends with the letterman who is the courier of deeper deities so he does have a connection to the goddess purplehead in some extent. So maby their friendship did impact his existance somehow. Or he got some kind of punishment from the deity. I recomend everyone who likes to theorise to look into the entire event chain of the minder stuff. He says some neat theory fuel. (i might be looking wayyy to deep into it)

Seems to be huge bug fix for now

The fact that the update took a year+ and had a MASSIVE bug fix in less than a month shows that teary is either the laziest human being or he started on the update just a couple of months prior to relase thus explaining why there were no progress reports.

I can understand why it could take time. My save is like 60h+ of me running around to get scene without any wikis soooooooooo it's fine.

+I will finaly have Peng scene with this update

He also makes a comment about how you have two reflections. Growing eyes on the back of your head. Here you is written like this while later he addresses the player as "you". Maby im thinking too much about it but its still interesting nonetheless.

Maybe Magentia and Niht? I would assume the "two of you" to be Dilan and Nalid, but as for being a 'tool'... that sounds more apt "for the Two" to refer to Dilan being a Katalist (i.e. a "tool"). Perhaps Vaila and someone else... like maybe the
witch of blue skies?

Also interesting of note: Ms Skylar is listed as a Succubus in the actor list. And that Deverou is an Apex Night Walker; same as Alex, Beatrice, and Macky. And the McHearty's Emplyee listed as "Niht's Potential".

The fucking McHearty's employee

This is why I have to keep track of each and every single random fucker that ever gets namedropped ONCE in any scene like that Jason guy or whathever, because Teary always brings back characters for the most random roles.

How long until we find out why he made art for that one chef outside the school?

I should really replay all paths soon to test some of my theories. But if we go with that all paths are just another perspective of the same events that happen maby its a bit less like an illusion of choice but more of wich perspective we are talking about.

Maby each path represents a part of Dilan as you said. The cold path (i have the least knowledge about this path) is about Dilan's capability to be cruel and cold. Merciless when needed but that is not all what Dilan is. The warm path might represent his more positive traits. His longing for warmth of others? Maby it just represents his positivity, happiness and good traits itself. The own path i feel like has had a very heavy focus on Nalid so maby that path represents Nalid's (own) perspective on all the events. Since its pretty clear that Nalid is just a part of Dilan himself who at some point got split off from his main personality.

You CHOOSE wich path you want to take. Your own input matters alot in this game.

One thing to keep in mind is this. Dilan himself is not a static character either. His personality may vary. You can play him in a miriad of ways. You can be a cheery, nice person or a cold, cruel or even creepy guy. So maby all paths are potential parts of his being the good the bad and even the lost part (Nalid) of him.



The deverou connection is not that easy i think though. Since Alan's pc says this about the matter of the whole a residue of Noo's energy has been seen in the 4th mine (Dilan teleporting there with a part of her essence) View attachment 4941683

I dont think the Vania's are in a ammicable relationship with the Gastastate Niht cult. (or Deverou has been disinhereted or something but for now we just lack a proper basis to make assumptions.)

The Alan intel is one real juicy piece that shifts my view of the two factions' relations for sure

Either Gatastate and Vania are at odds, or it was just sheer coincidence that their recent activities took place in nearly the same locations. Also with the talk of Noo being unlikely to survive, what are the chances the Nihtlings were referring to Miki? Unless Noo is hiding some kind of serious injury or deficiency, her power levels don't make sense in regards to the comparison with the "Hunter," who is likely Alex or Tracy.


Now, "illusion of choice" is admittedly not the best way to word it on my part, but what I'm trying to get at is how despite the different ways Dilan/the player can view the same timeframe, the end result ultimately doesn't change. That said, I agree choice does matter in the sense that it can tie what Dilan "wants to see most" to be in line with the player's view of his personality.

On top of Minder, there's sure been an uptick in mentions of pacts between Deities and mortals lately. The _____'s Shrine event is surprisingly old, but there's the connection between it and the Unknown Messenger who bore the Unending Book. Both events even share the same bgm, to boot. Minder himself might not be a messenger, but Letterman definitely is, so one has to wonder if the enshrined _____ Deity has anything to do with Purplehead or is something else entirely.

Minder's bit about binaries and freedom were the only parts of his riddles I somewhat got ngl, even then I can't see much beyond Dilan/Nalid being a tool to others. One thing that may turn out noteworthy though: if Dilan and Nalid are indeed the "you two" he refers to, would that make them true friends to each other, trying to save one another, the way Letterman and Minder have?

I honestly loved the lore of katalist back then but now I think Teary went too far

There are too much things for my brain and it's gonna be hard to keep any consistency with all this shit

I used to think Teary was good at writing lore and crafting an interesting world, now that I realize theres still "lore" and loose ends from nearly 5 years ago that hes forgotten about I realized theres really no pattern or thought put into it, its pretty much throw ideas against a wall and see what sticks, and then maybe just maybe continue it the next update (more often it gets left forgotten)
Has any new content been added with this last fix? because last update I looked at the pic folder and there wasnt anything new that was interesting

Kingdom Hearts backstories in a shellnut:



By the way, I found a note related to the Vanias and Ugly Chloa in Maven's suite.



the Vanias' "Human properties" I assume refers to the woods and maybe the groundskeeper's building Dominic mentions.

I start a new run of the game to check out the warm path and start running around collecting any free items I can get before fighting Noo. I get into the Fair poison to see if i could rob the graves, i interact whit the house where Doli is and trigger the event.

Does Teary just add things without story triggers? I'm not entirely sure how RPG Maker works or whatever he makes this game whit, but it shouldn't be that difficult, right?

 

[Maxbrown05255]

how is the game so far no bugs right

I don't know nobody's posted 98.1 yet

 

[d2dacameron]

Look at this comment for a quick guide.

Wow just saw the scene and got the blessing. I knew about the maze prison but had no idea about this shrine under the cathedral. So many hidden secrets.

Im guessing that this being who is in both scenes is some other diety.

How'd you reach Fair Poison? Maybe I'm too far along in my saves to go there before its intended unlock but I can't find a way there

And yeah the story triggers are quite iffy. I dunno how exactly Teary organizes them (probably a case by case basis tied to each of the maps), but there were scenes that triggered without matching story progress (Path dreams for one) in previous versions that eventually got fixed, there's still some now like Dominic's dorm room story cutscene.

I dont think they were refering to Miki. It could probably be that they underestimate her even though they have intel on the fact that Noo lost her power. Even though Noo didnt go all out on us when we fight her she is still much weaker than most succubi we encounter. Same could maby be said for Alex. She might be more powerfull than we think. (though a transforming/pearling Julia did her in with not too much effort).

Powerscaling in this game is quite weird. Since with the exception of Enna, Sereneta and Peng. None of the bosses we fight use their full power. Almost all of them take it easy on Dilan (think for example on the powershowcase at the Enna vs Vhidna fight that we barley saw)
