I think it's funny that everyone assumes MC's laser eyes would work on Taron...he's the current BBEG, and that's literally the first power MC unlocks...

eh I think it would I used to think Taron was the big bad guy but it's clear now he really is just a small fry / grunt to his master who he actually works for. He reminds me more of Little Finger from game of thrones pulling all the strings but I dont see much of a match for someone like Eliza or the MC anymore. Against a ordinary human he would be a foe to fear.

October is on the horizon! That means spooky season... And in Nephilim we will be honoring the season with a traditional fan favorite Halloween monster!

It has been hinted in previous updates, can you guess what or who it might be?
Find out in v0.4.8!

Yes, I know, different universe, but hear me out here :

Superman's heat vision works on Darkseid. Sure, it won't kill him, but it hurts.
Darkseid is a New God.

MC is a half-angel.
Taron is a little bitch human.

Pretty sure they'd work unless he happens to have some sort of magical defenses against them, but it doesn't matter because the MC NEVER FUCKING USES THEM!

...can you tell that bugs me?

Sounds like not bothering to get them was the better choice then. 1 point for non murder hobo MC.

for the powers for sure seems like the other power is better at this point. But to me murder hobo is always the correct move since he tried to kill the MC and was a professional assassin.

If I can do something without death I will. A dead man can never right his wrongs or strive to, at best his only contribution is the things he did before death. A living man can strive to make up for his failings and attempt to balance the skills for the crimes he's committed.

There's a reason a lot of people consider death to be the easy way out.

 

[ahahlberg]

honestly surprised that was enough to make to drop it. I agree that should of been differently for that plot point but I feel if you made it this far wouldn't be that big of a deal. Things like the Pirate arc with Kira , Eliza sudden change into a vampire out of nowhere, how the MC handled her changing into a vampire , not telling the King about Taron was alot worst and a much bigger deal

Yeah - I tend to agree - it's been a solid story up to this point with very little to criticize. I didn't like the vampire transition either but the author resolved that with some leeway to fully fix it. But my "fuck-up" filter went off immediately when the loyal, intense, and committed body guard just dropped his responsibility so easily fully well knowing that the princess had not yet been returned to safety. Out of character. While every story needs a good villain this is just too much for me. Turning the major LI into a vampire, putting the princess into harm's way by violating his principles as an aspiring and supernaturally gifted knight, and letting the villain go unpunished was just too much. It is amateurish writing to use such a flimsy pretext particularly since ample evidence had been provided by which he could later locate his old friend. But it's gone now so water under the bridge. Won't go back as there are plenty of other good works out there these days that don't resort to shark jumps to move a story along.

true but for that person I did not see him trying to redeem himself or would be willing to make up for things in his past and logically at the time just made sense. But knowing what I know now of how strong the MC and Eliza become yeah would make more sense to spare him as he would be no threat to us in the future. My main reasoning for killing him was not just because he tried to kill the MC but also logically since he was a assassin I figured he would try again. Since it wasn't just because the MC has a bounty on his head but he was after the MC for revenge as I believe Oren killed the assassins brother .

fair enough yeah really the bodyguard thing I have more of an issue with over other things I didn't not like. I don't really mind the Villian going unpunished up until this point at least for now. But he does need to do something about him soon it's now starting to be to much with doing nothing after what he just pulled on the MC. But I completely get you thankfully im playing this game more for the character than story or it might bother me a bit more. While I can tolerate alot I do hate it when things are predictable or disregard logic for the sake of setting up something in the story when it could of been done differently and better.

Just wait for the next disaster, Kings Naval Fleet is heading to the Pirate Cove, so expect FUBAK hitting the fan in a few updates, plus Talon taking advantage out of it

so how many times do we have to tell Kira no I dont want to fuck but im trying to save your ass from this mess you caused since you walked right into a trap

 

[xapican]

Oh and then was this Assasin Girl who got badly wounded, I'd like to know what story lies behind that.

Hopefully we get to spear her one day

Personally the Royal arc is my favorite right now I think. In part because the princess is my second favorite character after this update. As she reminds alot of Eliza I consider her basically Eliza 2.0. But we saw some good deveolopment from Luna , lore building of the world and the other angels / deities as well.

I do agree the other Kingdoms are far more interesting but I really get the feeling that is done on purpose. As I assume the MC is going to be a protector of the realm of sorts against these other kingdoms either as a ruler or just simply helping out the Royal Family in one way or another.

I do disagree about revealing to the King we are a Nephilim as a show of force to not fuck with us instead of being sent to the dungeons. To me that would only make sense as a Dark Option. I wouldn't want to do it on a save im not doing playing purely on the dark path as my main save. As I still consider the Royal Family my allies they were just manipulated by Taron. Not just that im under the assumption we are not trying to reveal to others we are a Nephilim. Even with a show of force I wouldn't trust the guards not the spill the secret at some point and that would mean having to kill them to keep them quiet if the MC would do the smart thing. So I think something Major like that needs to be a choice and not forced.

I agree with most of your post but I can't agree with the Princess being Eliza 2.0. Eliza is by far my fav girl, I love her to bits. The princess I don't like much at all. She is a rung above Kira in my book. The princess is arrogant and whiny, Eliza is none of those things, but thats okay, we agree on a lot, we can't agree on everything.

haha yeah I can see that wasn't fond of her at first but she grew on me alot however. She started off as whiny and self centered due to being royal but she improved alot for me . It was only in this update she is basically Eliza 2.0 to me as I saw more of a glimpse of her real self if she wasn't locked up in the castle. I see her whiny and self center version of her more as her being fake and showing what she has to show in public but not who she is. From what I saw in the update it really reminded me of Eliza before we got to the city , just from the way she was acting during their brief outing.

hey everyone....man oh man I love this game...is there a chance that MC will have a relationship with Emelia? I know Eliza is his main girl and I'm happy about that because she is amazing but there is something about Emelia that I love. any opinion would be appreciated

I think she and Merinda will be part of the Harem, Emilia will be initatied (or what ever word you want to use )after she is free from Talon.

 

[Sinthetic]

I assume the fact that the game is here means we don't get any loli Alice action?

that would be ** and against the rules she was like 10 years old during that part of the game when she had that model

 

[drifter139]

probably stupid to say this but you guys keep misspelling his name. it's Taron. Talon sounds like the name of some hunter who comes into town once every 2 months to sell animal skins and get what they need. as for how I'm playing. I'm taking light choices because my only real goal is to kill Taron and I don't mind hurting a few people but I wanna avoid killing if I can since only he deserves to die
