Sure it would be much more stuff like this despite which route you would choose with Ami. Pain is inevitable.
We're on Suffer Puppet Level 2 right now.
As long as there's some levity and compassion sprinkled throughout. If it's just suffering for the next 3 chapters I don't think I can keep playing.
According to presumably Psycho Ami, Chapter 3 is the "Petty Drama" chapter:
I took that line to mean chapter 3 is when Ami and others find out about the other people Akira is boning. This has already happened in some cases. Ayane being the obvious example.
Would definitely fit since Momma Kaori is "the Queen of Spiders".
Agreed. i'm a little worried about this, although not for myself in particular. I hope Selebus don't lose too many supporters during the dark path phase. We all have been warned that is coming, and no one should act surprised or offended when it finally kicks in. Yet, humans are strange and contradictory creatures. I can see people (even some who says are looking forward to the dark path) going "you know, this is actually too much for me". Hopefully I'm wrong.
That could definitely be what's it's referring to. There's also been stuff like Ayane putting Kirin in her place, Rin and Otoha fighting then sexting, Nodoka bullying Yumi, Miku hiding things from Makoto, Io catching Sana, Ami "catching" Noriko in the closet, Ami seemingly lying about Maya and Ayane, etc. Petty Drama overall.
As long as things don't get as meaninglessly effed up as "Crossed", I think I should be good. Might need a few breaks to wrap my head around things, depending on what happens though.
If the pattern holds, the recent reset would be the midway point, and the end of the chapter would happen before the end of the year (again, if pattern holds, probably close to christmas)
Considering that Selly's writing sucked at the first chapter, this is a good change of pace at least.
I don't think losing fans is avoidable if you want to switch the vibe of the story. I'll wait untill chapter 4 is out to fully judge. Though there are also 35 endings for all solo paths and as long as everyone lives I think I can deal with the dark stuff.
I think Christmas just happened or "Beachmas", but yeah, might be another time skip or something. Idk. Time is weird in Kumon-mi.
Just suffering is boring. Sure it would be more like monthly surprise suffering
I'll give this chapter 2 bluejays at max. Maybe 3 if there would be interesting homicide, but I sure that if it would be a homicide, everyone would act like nothing happend which makes it ~ equal to bluejay.
I still don't get why do you think chapter 1 sucks, especialy when i started playing pre-0.24.0. Nonetheless without chapter 1 there would be much less empathy which definetly amplifies effect
It is relatively strange for me that guys who love this game even after events like "Bluejay" or "Things that hurt" might be afraid if this game become even darker. It is not like fans are not prepared to real shit
Game title was a big spoiler, yeah
Personally I consider the uncontrollably sodomizing Sara part and White Oak Door stuff, as darker than Bluejay. Then again, I don't really find death as dark as others do, especially with a reset button.
I used Bluejay in terms of "rank drama level on scale from 1 to X Bluejays", so 2 Bluejays mean 2x darker then Bluejay. It's not about quantity, it's about quality
Yep, but I don't understand why do you ask. I am still not fluent with English so my post might be a bit misleading
It's my bad, I initially misread your reply and thought you said "Chapter 2 Bluejay" as in Bluejay from Chapter 2.
There is a problem with sacrificing girls without real choice and this problem is called "35 single endings". I mention Maya's death because idea of fighting entire world to return her (or other girl with equal value) someway converges with storytelling vector, but if there would be multiple ressurections in the end it would became Shaman King. And by ressurection i mean return of identity gone with reset, not a simple new Maya in new cycle.
