Yeah, I don't think I should stockpile chapters. Now's the perfect time to play 0.44, but I'm too damn lazy to go and do it. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure if I don't play it right now, once 0.45 drops, I'll feel even more daunted to play through the two back-to-back, leading to more and more delays until there's the EoY break. And by that time, there's no point anyway. So, I'll keep postponing for a few years. And then I won't remember anything. I'll have to play LiL from the beginning, which I'll never do since it's so damn huge...

Oh fuck. Yeah, I'm going to force myself to play now.

Play now. The cliffhanger between 0.44 and tomorrow's update should be experienced at least just a bit, as it'll make the update feel all the sweeter. Playing them back to back won't really hit as hard!

Will it ever be possible to invite people over again? Unless my game is glitched, it just hasn't let me for awhile now.

Any last minute(hours) predictions on what's gonna happen in this update?
Is the crew supposed to find the "gifts" Paredolia left "not where, but when" so they can reunite?
If Sensei and Makoto have a Maya Prime on their current place, will Sensei become an issue and refuse to "complete the task" since it would mean going to his non Maya Prime timeline?

Yeah if you are who I think you are you're permanently banned from the discord.
It's not really something targetted at you directly, every single time someone gets banned over there it's permanent.
You must've broken one of their stupid rules or said something that Selebus didn't like personally, that's how easy it is to get banned over there. LiLcord is the most stupid server I've ever seen and I'm ashamed of what is has turned into.
The only way to get this undone is by reaching Selebus directly through a different platform, but goodluck doing that AND getting him to listen.

I haven't said or done anything in the server for like a year, I figure someone linked my posts here about skipping the games puzzle sections to my discord. Sadge.

Been thinking about this a lot, if a past version of Maya Prime is there Sensei will latch on to her and become very hard to work with. He won't want to let her go.

That's pretty much it, you don't even need to send a single message in their discord, if you get caught talking about skipping puzzles or anything else he doesn't like, you get banned.


I didn't snitch.

Btw, just curious, am I the only one who generally tries to avoid getting spoiled in this thread most of the time?

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the previews and the discussions are always fun. But I feel like I want to approach each new update with a "clean slate" as it were, without any prior knowledge or expectations of what's to come.
Not that the spoilers are really that big in the first place, I just don't like to speculate about something that I haven't seen first hand yet, I guess?
This is not limited to LiL of course, I also never watch movie trailers, and I also hate it when TV shows have previews of the next episode.

Oh well, I guess people that don't want get spoiled for the update are probably not watching the thread right now anyway :HideThePain:

PS: Also I seem to be unable to upload any pictures on here. If that is F95's idea of spooking the users then it's certainly working.

I do too. Even when on the discord I muted all the preview channels and stuff. Needing to avoid discussion on the preview images and event titles is the one unfortunate aspect of engaging with the community. You are very wise to avoid movie trailers and TV previews; the amount of magic lost from even a slight amount of foreknowledge can be vast. Once one detoxes from previews one can only look at how revealing movie trailers are with nothing short of shock. (although there are some studies which show the average person enjoys things MORE when they are spoiled...)

One day to go, it's time for the traditional "what do you want to happen in this update?"

I am really looking forward to the Himawari stuff to be explained, and if it isn't I'm going to be very disappointed.

Like, it's understandable that some of it remains a mystery, but for the amount of Himawari in chapter 3, and how much she's been active and hinting at it all coming down this halloween - including the time travel which mirrors her own presumed time travel origin (and Pareidolia's sacrifice, which for all we know has been her off-partner/boss for the longest time), it just doesn't make sense for it not to be revealed now.

Edit: If Selebus reveals that her name is Ami/Amy in this update, you guys will never hear the end of it from me :ROFLMAO:
Edit2: We also managed to go 500 messages over our normal amount this month, we're at 45.525 for update 0.45 (versus 44k for 0.44) \o/

So much to look forward to in this update:
  • A heavy focus on Maya/Ami/Ayane, who in my opinion really are the game's best characters. I especially like that we'll get some events with them and no Sensei, to further explore their relationships with each other.
  • Clues about how much Ami and Maya know about the world and maybe even why they know it. I can't wait to see what's happening in the scene with the winking Ami and the one where she's with the distressed Maya.
  • Clues about Maya's past. Will there be evidence for or against my Sekai theory?
  • Boxes! I know I mention them every time I make one of these posts, but I think this is the update where they're finally opened.
  • More speculatively, I have a feeling we're going to learn something big about the primary narrator, and hopefully by extension USER4.
I guess I disagree with you about Himawari's importance to this reset, especially since it looks like Ayane is getting help from her timeline's Maya (and her boxes?). Himawari's rule-breaking interventions seem to be more opportunistic than calculated to me. It would be nice if we got some payoff for whatever Ayane experienced at the beach, but I'm not expecting it when we've seen no sign that she remembers anything.

To offset my Himawari negativity, here's a no context tinfoil theory that I think you might like: Ami had the same role in Terminal 22 that Himawari does in Terminal 23.

I would probably avoid the previews if I was choosing in a vacuum, but looking at them makes it a lot easier to read and participate in the discussion here. So far I haven't regretted it, I think Selebus does a good job of throwing in red herrings and hiding any real twists so that the big moments are still impactful.

it also helps that he gets it wrong sometimes. He was worried so much about Miku blood after we saw Stomachache that we thought Chinami was dying this Halloween.
