Laura and Jubes will be friends if she pops up?
I really liked their friendship in the comics.
Haven't read that far ahead but myself and Holder will likely do some snooping as a lot of X-23's development will be earlier in the timeline.
GOD BLESS!
GOD BLESS EMMA FROST'S GREAT BIG OL' fake TITTIES!
PRAAAAAAAAAAAAISE THE LORD OH YEAH
They aren't fake.
Even now, it comes hilariously close, this era was horny as hell, and we love it for that.
Skipping as in the event never happens, or because Null just misses out on the events due to being stuck in traffic or something?
Only asking because Lockheed and Xavier are both heavily tied to the arc, though if the Brood arc isn't happening, I'm guessing those events and introductions will happen under different contexts.
Null will be absent. The reason why we're not going to be presenting it in full is:
A. The Brood storyline kinda comes out of nowhere with the X-Men putting a stop to the larger storyline to handle them. Not as egregious as them all being kidnapped and forced into a circus but still.
B. While it sets up a lot of cool things, a lot of people just don't enjoy it. We held a vote and both our comic nerds and our non-comic nerds either showed a disinterest or an outright distaste for it.
It caused pacing issues for the comic and it'd definitely cause pacing issues for this game.
She only has adamantium on her claws unlike Logan who has full skeleton, so she is quicker and theoretically might have faster regen but I don't remember if that has been tested.
She "died" and got revived by Krakoa with a full skeleton.
Also good to know that you can reach A+ even without pussy sex and all sex toys.
If I can make my wife pop her back with my hand alone then Null should be able to get his girls off the same way.
Laura has had children in different realities.
1. Which ones?
2. Are they as adorable as I imagine?
To be fair, natural birth isn't a reliable way of making mutants, the X-Gene is random and unpredictable and sometimes a child doesn't have powers anything like their parents. In fact there's one example in which a child born to two mutants was a normal human with no powers at all (Graydon Creed, son of Sabretooth and Mystique)
Genetic engineering may be expensive but can get you the exact powerset you desire.
Yeah. And people forget that even if a dormant X-Gene is expressed and you get a mutant, most mutants aren't Jean, Magneto, or Cyclops. They are relatively normal people who's "power" might be that they're blue or just translucent like Glob. Super mutants aren't as common and the really super ones that we know by name are very rare.
They cloned an embryo and she gave birth to it. It wasn't IVF.
Poor Glob, dude really got the short end of the genetic stick.

I swear to god that Gob will be a bro at some point if the Dev team doesn't restrain me.
How else do you think that Ophelia got the money or leverage to buy out fictional Singapore? Doesn't come cheap. Disposable goons is a good business.

There's a debate on whether or not she'll be Wolverine's end game or if Null can date her through The Raft's "villain rehabilitation" program.
This game could really need a roadmap on its front page here.
I'm just gonna straight up put a request in myself at this point.
I have some questions about chapter 2. how will the new characters be introduced? will they just randomly show up 1 day or will they be introduced via an event? will they be introduced all at once or spaced out?
At the beginning of of chapter 1 you did have a little bit of time before you could interact with Jean in the sandbox so I'd imagine It'll be that way for the other 3. I'd say Storm is the first one. But we'll just have to wait and see m8.
All characters will be introduced during prologue events or EARLY sandbox unless stated otherwise.
I don't wear shiny boots, but my irrelevant guess is that Dazzler and Kitty will show up as new students at age 18, one grade/year below the player and Laura then.
The possibly still confused Ororo will most likely popup as teacher.
Dazzler will be 19.
No idea how interactively Kurt and Piotr will become if you can do bro hangouts with them later as well.
God willing, we'll have Kurt's bro hangouts done by 1.0. If not then they'll be out in 1.1 with Piotr's.
If they actually add Scott as bro too.
Bros beyond Kurt and Piotr are a budget thing. I outlined a lot of content with Wolverine but despite being 40% smaller than half the cast, he'd still take up art budget. Pitor's getting two of every pose and outfit because of his metal form.
The current roster of the X-men as in the ending of chapter 1 is Cyclops, Wolverine, Colossus, Marvel girl (Jean), Storm, Beast and Thunderbird, and if im not mistaken i think those are Cecilia and Forge in the picture.
Painting is inaccurate. Beast is with the Avengers right now.
Cecilia and Forge are friends of Xavier's and not in active service. Cecilia visits specifically when Null ends up in the hospital on request from Xavier. It's why she's not on social media and why there's no reference to her working there during sandbox.
l yeah, Scott is actually likeable in this era of comics before the bullshit tainted him. There's no reason for Null to replace him or his replacement if this game follows his retirement plot. (I have never read X-Factor, so I don't know how it goes there or how his character develops.)
No, Null will not be leading the primary X-Men team.
I've outlined X-Factor so that's up to the writers.
As for how his character develops? He has a crisis and chooses being a hero over a father/husband. I'd advise checking it out. X-Factor is pretty good when it isn't focusing on melodrama with Jean.
I get it, but Jean will hardly hang out with Scott anymore unlike in whatever other media, except it's actually a mission like at the C1 finale. School is basically over for Jean after C1 if I'm not mistaken.
Jean will be a teacher in Chapter 2. You'll see her and Storm behind the podium.
This won't be removing a method of spending time with you or building friendship points since the context just goes from her doing her own homework to tutoring you and the other girl. A really simple flavor text flip.
I got my doubts if Scott really wants to become a buddy of Null if he has basically stolen his girl.
It was a mutual break-up here.
Scott and Jean are on mostly friendly terms. They both just get frustrated by each other having a stick up their ass in their specific ways. This can be seen on the school's social media.
Scott and Jean's relationship will be expanded upon in future updates.
Now i can just imagine Scott and Null playing large scale civil war general re-enacment with Logan being there just to make sure the game stays realistic and telling them how it actually happened.

NGL. This would be badass.
Earth 69 ain't mainline canon, these are actually competent writers, so we should expect competent storylines.
... God, I hate modern mainline Marvel so much.
Any other crossovers and distinctive features? Magic/Mystic working? Drug use possibly more frequent with more peace and love.
I might hold a Q&A specifically about the differences between 616 and 69. We held one about world history, which people have cited in this thread multiple times.
I approve of that, i like when the clone characters get personality of their own, thats how we got the precious, sassy baby gremlin.
I just want to adopt Gabby with Laura at the very least.
View attachment 5077777
god i wish raising Gabby with Laura would be peak but as the devs said it's a dating sim porn game so Gabby being in it will attract certain group of people. Maybe it can be done as an ending but i doubt it.
I've had to rewrite my response to this a few times so I've decided to bullet it because I can't make it flow naturally.
1. The concern of a "certain group of people" being attracted is them making mods that may sexualize the underaged characters.
Even if we made it that they're not even barbie/ken dolls and just empty undrawn space under clothing, someone could use other assets or make their own mods. The thing with this is that we'd A. feel violated that the rendition of the characters we made be used in such a way and B. If those mods get targeted by authorities, either F95's staff or actual law enforcement, it could put us in trouble as we'd have to prove that none of the fucked up shit came from us. It's something we could easily prove but it'd be annoying and if the police get involved we may get a take down notice from Marvel.
2. When it comes to Illyana specifically. The dev team as a whole feels the ick at the idea of Null knowing her at age 6 and then dicking her down at age 18. Veterans of our community are well aware of my distaste for Bruce Tim and him shipping a version of Batman and Batgirl where it was clearly stated Batman knew Batgirl before puberty.
Our solution for this though was simple... Null has no reason to be interested in meeting Pitor's 6 year old sister. He has college exams to worry about and if he's gonna hang out with Pitor it'd be at an arcade, not his sister's room.
Whether Magik makes it into the game, I believe 5 girls present themselves during the chapter she would appear in, I can still see Kitty and Pitor posting about her on social media just so it's not like "Oh hey Null here's my sister at random."
3. We have a legit following who actively want a SFW version of this game that they can show to their friends and family without being judged so maybe we could do "fandisks" like the Japanese do in release micro stories that serve as extended character epilogues. The dev team, and some of our community, has had interest in us tackling another property before making a direct sequel to TNH.
An example of what this would be would be like Null, Laura, and Gabby having a wholesome weekend eating spaghetti and renting a movie. You'd be able to customize your Null but other than that it'd be pretty kinetic.
This is still several years away though as future chapters are easily double to triple the length of Chapter 1.
Edit: 4. One of the actual concerns is payment services like VISA getting in a tizzy. Look up the recent news about Steam and Itcho. It'd be a fast track to getting us in trouble no matter how well we handle it.
You're a bit off...

It's the Marvel universe and the X-Men after all.
Null exists specifically to make that not happen lol
Search at the top is your best friend. It has been discussed so so so much in this thread it's beyond the pale. But feeling generous so here it is.
Everybody gets one.
I swear if Peter ever shows up, he's going to reference that in some form or another.
Wait, Godzilla is canon in earth-69?
View attachment 5079105
How the heck are the heroes still alive? we better not end up near the coast then.
Godzilla actually doesn't have the active desire to fuck with people. He just gets cranky and goes on rampages when people fuck with him.
He's arguably a good guy as he's known for waking up and taking down kaijus who genuinely want to end humanity.
Needless to say Sunfire is still having very bad case of the Mondays.
I am confused...the old ones seem to indicate its onlt "based on" Godzilla and not the actual Godzilla?
On Earth 69 it's the actual Godzilla.
Because the one from the latest crossover actually is Godzilla and fucks shit up, specially because it goes full shin Godzilla with the weird jaw and sentient tail and all.
Of fucking course Marvel couldn't stop releasing another special focused on killing all their characters...
How can you expect Null to have peace of mind to go down on the girls knowing a giant radioactive iguana might appear at any moment and kill everyone with bullshitnium?

This makes me think of possible Marvel Vs Capcom references... People have been asking for Cosplay...
If you are curious how many friendship points each have, check out my
mod. The option is enabled by default to read the points on each portrait on the friendships screen. You can remove the mod later if you don't need it anymore.
Might as well throw half of this at Ron. He has mentioned several times wanting to have someone help with coding.
Just a lot of people being unreliable in the past.
Laura has only been in the mansion for 4 months by Chapter 1
Laura during the boyfriend talk: "I was at this school for weeks before you arrived. More than enough time for me to become friends with anyone else."
Oh well, at least it can be assumed she's in the same school grade like Null, although not exactly sure how the school system works there. It all seems a bit chaotic if everyone attends the same classes all the time.
This is a continuity error caused by me citing my outline and not the writers.
To explain, I'm not part of the writing team and they use my outline as a framework. I read all the comics go "This is how it happened, here's my suggestions" and the writers do whatever they want. I OCCASIONALLY look over stuff but Ron is the one who gives the green light.
I'll adjust the Q&A to match the game.
