VN Ren'Py Superhuman [v0.996 Public] [WeirdWorld]

[Gtdead]

1. There is not a single case happening in the story thus far. (although there is one hypothetical case mentioned. that of the level 5 fire guy burning away all of earth)

2. I literally addressed the hypothetical possibility at that some point some super will do so a few lines below what you quoted me saying

===

You are forgetting magical pressure, soul pressure, aura pressure.

There is, the one I referenced and more. Bernhardt uses magic, and this magic causes atmospheric pressure to change by some mechanisms that we don't know and have no reason to care. Just like Malik's magic creates heat, Nico's creates wormholes (probably, not sure about this one), Alice's messes with Gravity and Dark Energy, MC's generates and alters mass, etc.

And this is why we can have interactions like Klaus' barrier being capable of burning through small objects, but being unable to stop big objects. Because it's based on heat, and small stuff burn faster than big stuff.

This is why MC does not turn huge, because there is the mass to volume ratio holding him back and making him inefficient. He makes a pass at this concept when training the mantis punch. "No. It slows the mechanism and weakens the punch, which is already by default slowed and weakened by scaling it up to human size. I also still dislocate my arm anyway". This is also why he has trouble shapeshifting when he wears his plate armor, because he has a harder time transmuting the metal which has more mass.



You are overzealous in trying to shoehorn this into your "everything is magic theory" (excuse me for paraphrasing). Bernhardt is obviously related to the air, both by MC's thoughts and the narrators explanation. he is capable of "fixing" the atmosphere, he creates a barrier out of what seems like pressurized air and then applies "pressure" to kill the monster.

I'm not "forgetting" these "magic pressure" ideas. I'm outright ignoring them. That's like proposing that Malik doesn't create fire, he creates magical energy that walks, talks and looks like fire. No, it's fire, created by magical means, and there is absolutely not a single reason to assume that it's otherwise. He gets to attack Ella with a burst of heat (Core Heat), or a flame (Ceaselessly Burning Flame). And the result is that Ella either atches flame or turns into ash, exactly the effect that we expected when fire interacts with a human body, pretty much proving that Ella's body composition, is clause to a normal human's, despite her being a shapeshifter.

How about trying to put these ideas in less abstract concepts? It's not muscle, it's a magical blob that looks like muscle, so MC doesn't punch, he uses magic to make some abstract thing that punches his enemies.

It's not electricity, it's some magic that somehow interacts with a superconductor in a special way and it leaves electric burns.

And while they don't use magic to "generate" the mundane energy, their magic creates effects that can be both conceptualized and measured in mundane ways.

Edit: Even Clark, who can empower a superhuman and make him stronger, says that his power is based on a real concept, called photobiomodulation. Why would the writer go in such lengths if he didn't want to introduce actual scientific concepts in the game.

Clark "Xanthe said it was some variation of photo.... photobiomodulation, or something like that. Apparently, it's a real thing even without all the supernatural bullshit, though obviously what we do is a little more out there."

Just like Malik's magic creates heat, Nico's creates wormholes (probably, not sure about this one), Alice's messes with Gravity and Dark Energy, MC's generates and alters mass, etc.

You have failed to produce a single example of someone converting their magic into purely non magical energy.

A. You are assuming that when he said "a little pressure" he was euhpemistically lying and meant a metric fuckton of pressure. Specifically you assume he meant "I completely removed all magic from it, converting it solely into a non magical physical force with more energy than 100 nukes going off together". Yet even though he was not speaking clearly, he must have meant the most literal definition of the word pressure. which you falsely insist can only mean one thing (more on that below)

And intentionally ignoring how bernhardt can physically transform his body into wind and then teleport across the world at near light speed. Somehow non magical wind clearly can not do. You attrbiute this to a failure of the author to understand the physics that govern wind. The author knows damn well that ordinary wind cannot think like a person and cannot move at near light speed.

B. You cannot even articulate exactly what nico and alice's powers do. Yet insist it somehow must be converting magic into purely non magical energies or matter.

C. You are ignoring the part where I explicitly stated that Berhard, Nico, and Malik are explicitly potential planet busters. Nico literally destroyed a demiplane.

D. The MC mass is absolutely 100% still magical. Which is why it starts evaporating when seperated from his body.

No, this is not at all equivalent. Level 5 powers are explicitly varied, exotic, and enter the realms of the conceptual.
Your insistence that someone who started with the power of fire at level 1, can literally do nothing BUT completely ordinary non magical fire at level 5 is absurd

Also, the term pressure has many varied meanings. Fire not so much.
If someone said "I applied a little fire to the enemy" it has very specific meaning.
If someone said "I applied a little pressure to the enemy" the meaning is not as clear due to the many ways to interpret that word.
He could have said "I applied a little wind to the enemy". wind has a very specific and clear meaning, unlike pressure.

I never said it is "a blob of magic that vaguely looks like fire".
It is [magical fire]. Comprised of both magic AND fire. The two are intertwined.

You are the one who is arguing for purely 100% non magical effects.
Don't put words in my mouth painting me as your polar opposite. I am not.
I am arguing for a hybrid effect.
It is magical fire. Not pure magic, not pure physics.
It is magical muscles on MC. Not pure biology, not pure magic.

If MC was creating purely biological constructs. Then why does his arm evaporate when detached from his body? It was explicitly mentioned to be related to the magical energy in his flesh.

Are you sure you are responding to what I write? For someone who claims that I misrepresent his point and paint him something, you seem to have some comprehension issue or have confused me with someone else.

I'm taking the literal definition because it fits and makes sense. There's this thing called Occam's Razor. So unless you can prove that it's otherwise using the game's text, I see absolutely no reason why the "air guy" would apply "soul pressure".

B. You cannot even articulate exactly what nico and alice's powers do. Yet insist it somehow must be converting magic into purely non magical energies or matter.

C. You are ignoring the part where I explicitly stated that Berhard, Nico, and Malik are explicitly potential planet busters. Nico literally destroyed a demiplane.

The fact that you need better articulation than what I've written on Nico and Alice just shows your bias. You think it's some kind of "aha" moment but it's not. My argument is that magical powers can create mundane effects. I don't need to explain how Nico may expend power to fold dimensions, or how Alice switches between repulsive and attractive forces.

And I'm not ignoring anything about planet busters. I was the first who tried to explain that planet busting is normal for level 5 Superhumans in this discussion, and there is no need for "magic" to destroy a planet, so that's not an argument which helps your case.

Suffice to say, some of these effects are conceptually magical. Alice's contained gravity, Bernhardt transforming into air etc cannot be explained somehow even if some of the effects are measurable. The explosions can be explained though, no matter if they are galaxy busters or a light breeze. I never contented that point, but it seems I have to include even the things that I haven't said to cover all the bases.

D. The MC mass is absolutely 100% still magical. Which is why it starts evaporating when seperated from his body.

This doesn't answer anything I've talked about. Even if magic is the method by which MC affects mass, the materials he creates are common. Once he reached level 3 he could create monster materials too, but his bones are diamond, not magic diamond.

No, this is not at all equivalent. Level 5 powers are explicitly varied, exotic, and enter the realms of the conceptual.
Your insistence that someone who started with the power of fire at level 1, can literally do nothing BUT completely ordinary non magical fire at level 5 is absurd

So you say, I'm still waiting for your proof that any effect, unless explicitly stated or can't be mapped to a real life concept, is inherently magical. No matter if you think that it's absurd, the game does not support this notion.

Assume that a superhuman has the ability to travel FTL. That's magical. However as long as he travels up to the speed limit, the effect is not magical.

I will just reiterate my point. Just because magic exists, we don't have to toss everything else out of the window. Both can coexist in fictional works.

Also, the term pressure has many varied meanings. Fire not so much.
If someone said "I applied a little fire to the enemy" it has very specific meaning.
If someone said "I applied a little pressure to the enemy" the meaning is not as clear due to the many ways to interpret that word.
He could have said "I applied a little wind to the enemy". wind has a very specific and clear meaning, unlike pressure.

I mean, we can have a discussion about philology, no problem, but you do understand that 2 out of your 3 examples are actually wrong do you? How one goes about applying fire and wind? You apply heat, force, pressure, the things that by definition have an effect. Fire and Wind do not have an effect, they are just things. No one ever said that "we apply fire to cook the steak". We say "we apply heat to cook the stake". Are you going to argue that heat in this context can ever be "soul heat"?

When air and pressure are used in close proximity, thinking anything else than force/surface is overreaching.

I never said it is "a blob of magic that vaguely looks like fire".
It is [magical fire]. Comprised of both magic AND fire. The two are intertwined.

You are the one who is arguing for purely 100% non magical effects.
Don't put words in my mouth painting me as your polar opposite. I am not.
I am arguing for a hybrid effect.
It is magical fire. Not pure magic, not pure physics.
It is magical muscles on MC. Not pure biology, not pure magic.

If MC was creating purely biological constructs. Then why does his arm evaporate when detached from his body? It was explicitly mentioned to be related to the magical energy in his flesh.

I'm arguing that magic is capable of creating both magical effects and non magical effects, and the particular non magical effects are exactly the same as any mundane effect we can find in the real world. For example Malik's "Ceaselessly Burning Flame" is a hybrid, because no flame lasts forever without fuel, but Malik's magic can sustain it indefinitely. The flame however is exactly the same as the one you may find on a candle or through some other mundane mechanism.

And since you talked about MC's mass vanishing, Ella Doll explains this in detail. The mass created has to be sustained by the monster power. Once it loses the connection, the energy "disperses". Now guess what, there's an actual mechanism here. The energy does not vanish, isn't lost, instead it "disperses".

Reminds you of some concept? Like let's say, conservation? The narrator goes to extreme lengths (relative to the genre and the purpose of the VN) to keep things grounded on a scientific base. It happens everywhere throughout the game. It's not just magic. It's magic grounded in reality. It's like monster power is a form of energy, which can have multiple states and (at least partially) play by the rules that other types of energies do.

 

[harem.king]

My argument is that magical powers can create mundane effects.

So... you literally saw me replying to

>> Author does not understand physics. X Should do Y
with
> me: It is magical X. not mundane X

and decided to tell me I am wrong and that... magical powers can create mundane effects?
you should read more carefully.

I never argued that magic cannot do anything mundane.
I argued that when someone uses magic to create fire, they are creating magical fire that can do things normal fire cannot.

Which is how you can have MC think as a liquid, tiffany think as a living light beam, berhardt think as a gust of wind, and (probably) malik think as a fire.

As for intentionally TRYING to create a purely mundane fire that is constrained by the laws of physics?
they probably can do it. With varying degree of difficulty depending on the individual.
But need a good reason to even make the attempt.

Once he reached level 3 he could create monster materials too, but his bones are diamond, not magic diamond.

Wrong.
MC's body is explicitly infused with magical energy throughout. As is every other superhuman.
This is why MC's bones evaporate when seperated from his main mass.
This is why electricity causes him to explode.

Real diamond does not evaporate in room temperature.
Real diamond does not EXPLODE when touched by electricity.

In fact it is explicitly a thing with MC making metal parts that, once chopped off, he has only a fraction of a second to grab and reconnect to if he wants to save it. He succeeds some times and fails others. causing him to lose mass.

Also this line of claim explicitly contradicts your earlier claim that your entire argument is that magic can create mundane effects.

When MC creates a mundane effect is when he modifies someone else's body. Even then there is explicitly energy in their body.
Remember when you transform that boy in the prison into a girl. It is explicitly mentioned how her new virginity melts away due to remnants of your power.

And when you experiment on prisoners, the energy goes out of control very easily once separated from your body. Requiring you to use very small amounts of energy with extreme control.

And I'm not ignoring anything about planet busters. I was the first who tried to explain that planet busting is normal for level 5 Superhumans in this discussion, and there is no need for "magic" to destroy a planet, so that's not an argument which helps your case.

You misread yet again.

I replied to different arguments someone made.
Argument A: He incorrectly assumed that all attacks by a superhuman must convert magic into 100% non magical effects.

Argument B: He incorrectly assumed that the reason the earth was not blown up yet is because nobody exists with the power to bust planets. Which he argues is in conflict with "that mountain monster was more durable than X"

My counter argument for B was "planet busters DO exist. the reason the earth does not get blown up is due to its protects having space and time powers that ensure its safety."

You are falsely attributing my counter to argument B as if it was a counter to argument A. and thus thinking it is my argument for as to why "all attacks are magic"

 

[Gtdead]

So... you literally saw me replying to

>> Author does not understand physics. X Should do Y

you should read more carefully.

I never argued that magic cannot do anything mundane.
I argued that when someone uses magic to create fire, they are creating magical fire that can do things normal fire cannot.

And I am telling you that the fire can be as mundane as it gets, and the magic can be used to power various effects, like burning without a power source, intensity etc.

Which is how you can have MC think as a liquid, tiffany think as a living light beam, berhardt think as a gust of wind, and (probably) malik think as a fire.

MC doesn't think as a liquid, In fact if you choose to think as a liquid you get a deadend scene. MC commands his power to do something and it just happens. If he tries to think he dies.

We have no idea how Malik and Bernhardt experience their transformationo.

As for Tiffany, she just tells us that she moves with thought, not that she thinks while in light form. Her perception changes to something that she can't describe according to her words. Additionally in Tiffany's specific case, in transhumanism there exists the concept of light based nerves instead of electric ones so ending up capable of thought in her "light form" can be sci-fi instead of fantasy.

As for intentionally TRYING to create a purely mundane fire that is constrained by the laws of physics?
they probably can do it. With varying degree of difficulty depending on the individual.
But need a good reason to even make the attempt.

No, they create mundane effects and need a good reason to make them magical. The more advanced the superhuman, the more likely that the effects he creates are magical, but the core mechanisms are the simple ones, not the convoluted.

Wrong.
MC's body is explicitly infused with magical energy throughout. As is every other superhuman.
This is why MC's bones evaporate when seperated from his main mass.
This is why electricity causes him to explode.

Real diamond does not evaporate in room temperature.

Remember when you transform that boy in the prison into a girl. It is explicitly mentioned how her new virginity melts away due to remnants of your power.

MC learns to make Iron by rearranging molecules, it's explained in one of the training events with Ella and discussions with Xanthe.
The Diamond does not evaporate, I already quoted the relevant mechanism.

And when you experiment on prisoners, the energy goes out of control very easily once separated from your body. Requiring you to use very small amounts of energy with extreme control.

You are quite a special case when it's so easy to call "wrong" while speculating and taking stuff in extreme isolation. Ella's Doll already explains much of the mechanics. Instead of speculating without basis and lazily making stuff up, I'd urge you to read the script and try to make connections between what you see and what the game tells you. Your references to the various tidbits of information are either imprecise or outright wrong.

There is no single authority who can tell if something is magical or mundane. However when someone says "I make fire" or "I apply pressure", you have to prove that fire doesn't mean fire but something other (magical fire in your case), and pressure doesn't mean pressure. No matter how hard you try to theorize, unless you specifically provide a quite that proves the fire and the pressure are not the ones that we know, you can't claim correctness.

You misread yet again.

I replied to different arguments someone made.
Argument A: He incorrectly assumed that all attacks by a superhuman must convert magic into 100% non magical effects.

Argument B: He incorrectly assumed that the reason the earth was not blown up yet is because nobody exists with the power to bust planets. Which he argues is in conflict with "that mountain monster was more durable than X"

You are falsely attributing my counter to argument B as if it was a counter to argument A. and thus thinking it is my argument for as to why "all attacks are magic"

How exactly this stuff has ANYTHING to do with me? What do I care if someone made whatever arguments? Did I make any relevant argument? Even if I somehow misread, why should I even engage on an argument that has nothing to do with me?

 

[harem.king]

MC learns to make Iron by rearranging molecules, it's explained in one of the training events with Ella and discussions with Xanthe.

MC's "iron" explicitly evaporates when disconnected from his body and explodes when touched by electricity.
Real iron does not do either of those things.

This is because MC's iron is magic iron, not mundane iron.
Some of its properties match that of mundane iron.
Some of its properties differ from that of mundane iron.

Can MC generate true mundane iron? At the moment he cannot. In the future he might figure it out.
In fact, once MC can reliably create purely non magical materials, he would be able to fully immunize himself against his vulnerability of lightning with his armor.

"Dear God... look at them all."
Gonna be honest, I only saw this one.

 

[DrakoGhoul]

The problem with the Moon Twins fight, for me, was MC taking too long to adjust to them. The moment he saw Evander get hit by a tree and sent flying is the moment he should've realized that reinforcing his body more, and hitting him fast enough before the disintegration takes place, is the way to beat him. It's pretty much Klaus fight again, but with a higher tier power now. Instead, he was taking hits after hits. As for Devana, while he didn't necessarily have to kill her flat out, he shouldn't have had any problem closing the distance between them and knocking her out.

 

[Gtdead]

Furthermore, you are trying to correct me on things I never said.
I explicitly hypothesized early on that it might be possible to create purely mundane creations.
But there is rarely a reason to do so.
And by default they make "magic X". therefore the assertion that "X must conform to known physics" is wrong as it ignores the magic part.

Yet you have been trying to twist the above into me saying "it is impossible for them to create mundane stuff".

Well, your posts are getting predictable at this point.
1) You completely ignore the pieces that you can't contest, like I never mentioned them.
2) You hang on some word that you take out of context or failing to understand it's context in the first place as an "aha" moment.
3) You whine that I twist your arguments while you casually strawman me.
4) You continue using your ideas as proof despite, even when shown proof that the game's text contradicts you, without even making an attempt to explain yourself.

Fire that burns without a source is NOT mundane fire. That is magic, it literally breaks physics.
Fire that burns with intensity greater than it should based on physics is NOT mundane fire.
Your argument is literally self contradicting.

Look, if you are going to make a discussion based on physics, do your homework. Different fuels create flame with different temperatures and Malik provides the fuel which I already said it's magical, There is not a speck of inconsistency in my post, but you do you.

You are accusing me of what you are doing.
I clearly read far more than you did consider how you are ignoring every fact in the game that is inconvenient to your imagination.

Certainly, like you read the bit about "evaporation", like you read the bit about your "aura/soul/magic pressure" ideas. And the funniest part is that you accuse me of ignoring the facts when I literally use the script to counter your arguments, and instead of attempting to prove me wrong, you claim that you "read far more".

Sure, you do you.

You quoted it (alongside with another argument) when you first told me I am wrong.
Later, you misinterpreted it as being a response to the magic argument

Are you talking about the "kamehame" post that I quoted? Where in that post does it mention planet busters?

because nowhere in the story does it say that they are tossing kamehamehas with more than 100 nukes worth of explosion

"Even to an ordinary mountain, a nuclear bomb would do precious little, you'd have to launch hundreds."
Bernhard "Very well. A little pressure should do it." | Bernhardt "Just applied a little pressure, that is all."

You have failed to produce a single example of someone converting their magic into purely non magical energy.
C. You are ignoring the part where I explicitly stated that Berhard, Nico, and Malik are explicitly potential planet busters. Nico literally destroyed a demiplane.

I was the first who tried to explain that planet busting is normal for level 5 Superhumans in this discussion, and there is no need for "magic" to destroy a planet, so that's not an argument which helps your case.

I don't see how I misrepresented it (basically I don't even see how I quoted it in the first place, but whatever). In fact not only that didn't happen, but I stayed polite despite your tone.
But it seems like your only line of defense is claiming that I twist your arguments.

Well, polite time is over. If you want to continue this discussion

1) Learn to read. Some better comprehension will go along way to stop you from accusing me of twisting your words all the time.
2) Learn that insinsting on your ideas without any attempt of proof, when someone challenges it with a direct quote from the only authority in this discussion (the game), is childish.
3) Learn enough physics to avoid having to discuss about stuff like the flame.
4) Pull that stick out of your ass and stop strawmaning me while claiming that I somehow twist your arguments. My arguments are not even relevant to what you are insinuating. I don't care if you think Superhumans are capable of creating mundane effects as it's not part of the discussion. I only care that you are trying to prove that the effects are inherently magical.

The premises are
Mine: The effects are inherently mundane and can be augmented with magic.
Yours: The effects are inherently magical and have the potential to be mundane.

That's the only thing that drives my responses. I don't misrepresent, and I don't care for satellite arguments unless I believe that they directly contradict the written script.

Edit: Just to make it clear to people who read my posts. As it stands, I currently believe that every effect we see in the game, which looks familiar to a real life concept, like fire, mass, teleportation etc, can be measured exactly how a scientist would measure it in a lab. The medium that makes these effects happen is monster energy, which is anyone's perogative if he believes it's more of a fantasy concept or a sci-fi / exotic material one. I think it's a mix based on the concepts of annihilation and exotic matter, but it expresses itself in ways that are mostly fantastical.

This opinion may change in the future if we get information on the particulars. As it stands, I believe that the only hint that supports the "magic" idea is Xanthe's assertion that in order to turn monster biology into functional technology, it requires a "magical" element, along with his opinion on why MC can't mimic other powers despite shapeshifting into them (the bit about lifeforce). This says something about the medium, not necessarily the effect.

Watch closely kids. On the posts before mine, you can see the effects of a near update on the members of the thread. On one side you have GT, who is already used to the anticipation; that's why his mind can't be affected and he is fully lucid on the other side... I will refrain from commenting since I don't want to repeat the accident from two days ago. Now what does all of this mean? You may be asking well, the truth is, I don't know.

amazing game with a shit ton of content and great story, i have two questions though

1. will some of the older sprites get updated to newer ones in future updates, the age really shows on sprites like Christies, Liz and Ellas compared to newer ones

Yours: The effects are inherently magical and have the potential to be mundane.

I think both of these arguments(?) are correct depending on the situation/SuperHuman or there is a middle ground where both aspects co-exist leaving enough room for both science and magic

 

[Gtdead]

I think both of these arguments(?) are correct depending on the situation/SuperHuman or there is a middle ground where both aspects co-exist leaving enough room for both science and magic

Pretty much every interaction has both a magical and a realistic component. While I'm hard pressed to find a effect that can't be mapped to an actual or theoretical scientific concept, I can't possibly contest that point. For example the Authority, Memory, Dark and Deryl's specific brand of Creation effects are iffy. I can try to fit them into realistic concepts but there's not much point in doing so unless the game gives me a reason to.

The operating word in these premises though is "inherent". If for example Malik's flame burns at 3000 C, I expect it to be capable of melting the materials that melt up to this temperature and nothing else. In the same manner, if an ability's effect is supposed to be equivalent of 100 nukes, I expect that if 100 nukes explode, they will have similar effect on the target, no matter if it's a monster or a man made construct.

At this point we are treading in a bit of unknown territory. MC had too much trouble versus the Twins. Yes Devana can't really do much to him, but Evander can and a level 2 shouldn't have such an easy time going against a level 3.


2) Foxglove Twins getting merged into a Superbeing, permanent or not.

The Fusion scenario was one of the first wild theories since we got confirmation that this is the "Twins Arc". It's also a cool way to avoid the time problem. It will be a new and exciting variable, with the potential to be formidable without going through the usual steps.

The Foxgove twins are shown as being the exact opposite. One is haphazard and extremely talented, the other is extremely dilligent but an underachiever in comparison. One is cold the other is hot etc.

And I think that this is why the fusion theory is so exciting. Because they have the potential to complete each other.

No, let the Foxglove twins stay human, we don't need more pointless drama. Let the MC manage to save them from being abducted.
