Out of curiosity, what did all of you name your superhero persona?
Obsidian. I mean, at the time the armor was suposedly tough as shit and all black so it seemed badass and fitting.
Yes, I know IRL obsidian isn't all that durable.

I named mine "Darkness". The Armor looks similar enough to Jackie's from the Darkness comics. The tentacles and tendrils as well. Plus it was one of the Dev's inspiration for this game so I thought it would be fitting. Then seeing how Jackie Estacado(the host of The Darkness) was apart of the mafia and stuff. It all just worked out well.

Also, the Bailey thing resembled what happened in the comics as well. If the Dev did that unintentionally that's amazing. In the comic, Jackie can't have sex from fear of dying as a consequence/stipulation with the Darkness. Basically the power passes on to the next generation if a child is conceived, killing the host immediately, unless the Darkness itself does the deed. Anyway, Jackie creates a female darkness lifeform for sex and she became sentient. She was extremely loyal against even the main Darkness itself(if I recall correctly). It was pretty cool and similar to how Bailey is. Though the MC didn't create her in game.

That's about it. Just a bit of further details for why I did the "Darkness" name and how it fit in perfectly with the game. I might've mentioned this Bailey similarity thing before in an older post. If I didn't then this was the perfect chance to do it.

... How in the blazing fuck did I forget about those games. Holy crap it feels so obvious I wanna smash my head into the wall for not seeing it... (yes, never saw the comics, those are not as readily avaliable in my country, since it's not as culturaly prevalent as it is in the US)

Fascinating tidbit of information. Thank you.

That's unfortunate to hear, about the comics not being available. Both the games and comics are great. They are different from each other though.

That said, this all just reminded of all the stuff going on in this game currently. Now I'm even more excited for the next update. It's going to be huge with this finale on the Jake stuff. So much could go down. Evolution(possibly?), new powers, more character interactions, and more lore for the Monsters.

Just out of curiosity, is it now possible to have a full female playthrough. Or change into the female Body and stay like this?

I named mine Carbon, can't remember exactly why. But probably was only cause he has that black hide, and now thinking about it, it kinda makes me remember Greed from Fullmetal Alchemist. And well, it was the first badass looking name that came to mind.

Ironically enough, I named mine Satan back when the update only ended after the party(because haha funny I wanted an evil run), before the therapy started.
I did NOT think that name would play well with the theme of the game, even having someone named Deus later added which made the whole nickname I have for that even funnier.
I really hope there's an evil route where you absorb the others powers since the MC has corruption and basically capable of copying down to the genetic level, making them feel like Symbiote, if Symbiote can become a world ending cataclysm like the Zerg.
