I have two things that I wanna "fix" for this update, first one is to be able to win perfectly against Deryl and can choose left (monster mommy) option. Second one is to be able to ask every question to that monster mommy. Because why not, why can't MC have sex with the monster and be a father sometime in the future and save Laurie both?
The Lore dump from Aglaecwif should
not have been gated this badly, when comparing to skill points and power points I'll choose both over lore dump since I'm a optimizer(min-max player) granted this could have been forked with skill + Power points or Lore thereby rewarding players with the foresight to pick the eye over horn. I'll wait for the fix from WW regarding the 3rd evolution and see which choices were worth it.
Another aspect is to divide the lore dump by having Valravn expand on it and cause us to speculate how much is coming from his bias and what could the lies Aglaecwif told us
Valravn gives you the answer to that.
I truly hope it's not a bad end or pointless kill considering we were teased we could breed with monsters since the Minyak fight and in V0.94 class lecture. I want MC to have a family with that Voluptous dame considering we don't have Bailey or any girls able to bear children.
Meh, I like Deryl, but I'm not letting him cuck me (the player, not the MC) out of hot, impregnation sex with a milfylicious monster. So I cheated. And reduced the skill check for the Deryl fight too, while I was at it, 'cuz to hell with it. First time.
And that's all I have to say about this update, despite its size. Honestly, completely dampened my enthusiasm for the entire update. Childish, but eh. Hope we don't have more of these (frankly, bloody-minded) choices in the future.
Bros before hoes, but considering it's
Deryl there are always exceptions to the rule.
I do wish Bailey turned out as Sexy as Aglaecwif if not more. Here is to hoping we get Monster Waifus.
No way I'm letting that retard get a child before MC.
I would never hear the end of it, and how else will I rub it in his face that in a span of few days(post class lecture) I got to impregnate a monster waifu ?
No, they are not twins but rather share same monster parents and a past MC forgot. There is a hidden intamacy regarding Ella for the MC which begs the question what is her goal, there is foreshadowing that she needs him but for what is the mystery.
am i in the minority here who want the dev to slow the pace of the story little after we finish with this arc ? have some slice of life arcs and stuff ?
Yes, we've been building up slowly after the Mafia wars with klaus where this is the next biggest thing, and no the 3 way fight between MC vs Jake vs Deryl is a battle compared to what we have. Consider the next few updates to progress slowly before another confrontation. The story pacing is fine, it's the lore dumps that is rushed or botched due to execution.
man why do we have to choose between the monster snu snu and saving laurie
Was it ever a choice?
Every war has it's casulties and consequence, Laurie happened to be this updates reminding the MC's party they are not invincible. As for Aglaecwif, I pray the child is not some bad end or future villian, because I'd be pretty tragic for MC to kill his child or have him try to kill his father just because. Think about it, if Valravn and MC can have civil discussion I'd be cool to see MC be a brood lord
Quite possibly the oldest unanswered question since the games release, we finallyy got answers on the monsters but Ella is still it's longest mystery. I just pray the pay off is worth it.
Aglaecwif, it took me a minute, but isn't that an allusion to Grendel's mom? did we just father Grendel?!
A minute?
My good sir, you are truly cultured.
So all of us just cheat the Living crap of this update to breed the witch and still save the dumb cunt ?
No.
Didn't have any attachment to Laurie.
I haven't given my take on the Laurie thing yet. I'll give my reaction to it. Not going to spoiler this since this has been discussed without spoilers, heavily. I'll start by saying, I'm "fine" with it. I feel like that should've been more power dependant than skill and less reliant on being perfect for Deryl and the red monster fight in general but it's "fine". That said, Cole has to die, Jared has to die, and Charlie especially has to die now. No excuses, no mercy. I'm killing them all. No silly cucking shit nor redemption. On sight, they die.
You can't fathom the amount of hate I have for them right about now. From the bullshit "I was aiming for MC but oh well, at least I killed a random bitch" by Jared, to the "How did you become normal again Deryl? Come on, we have to go" from Charlie. The fact that she had the nerve to use her powers on Alice and MC to help them get away was enough. Her reasoning for it doesn't matter in the slightest. I didn't hold it against her for the Deryl thing at first but this was too far. I'm going to kill her and if Oscar is somehow still alive, I'm going to kill him too. If his body is still intact, I'm going to mutilate it until it's unrecognizable.
And you know what also pissed me off? The fact that the MC didn't just attack them immediately from underground and snipe Jared before he could even blink. There was nothing preventing him from doing it during that entire conversation with them. Plot armor is a real bitch sometimes but that just makes my desire to kill increase even higher as long as it keeps getting prolonged.
So yeah, I know I can save Laurie if I played differently but I won't. I'm a corrupted MC, so why should I cave and bend over backwards for Deryl to grow competent enough? I can live with Laurie's death but they can't remain alive. That's the price they're going to have to pay for it. My hate is totally justified and there's no way the plot can save any of them in the future. Every last one of them. I don't care if they're kids or innocent people. They all will die for it.
My rant is over. I've been holding that in since it happened. Hence the sadness in my other post. She obviously won't die on my main or skill MC but I started with my corruption main first. I have a few more post coming over the coming days about the monsters and so on but I had to get this one out first. I really did need to vent about it or it was going to stay on my mind.
Waiting of Drako and others to share their thoughts, I have to go over previous screenshots and sort the 2k images I have from this game while checking the foreshadowed lines from previous interactions as well as info about corruption since it seems to be increasing daily now by +1.
BTW anyone made a tier list for the game ?
