Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

it's been awhile but i have! i loved cent, he was a really great character. yoko taro is a gift and so are you! ♥

I JUST DID A TOP LEVEL but i'm not sure whether to tag into yours or if you'd rather do the opposite! let me know. it's happening, though.

Gift or curse, this is the question we will answer in time...

I just saw, after I edited mine! Had some word repetition that needed to be banished, woops. If none of my prompts stick out to you, I can certainly roll with any of yours. Do you have a preference?

TBH ALL YOUR PROMPTS ARE GOOD TOO! i was thinking either i'll tag b or you can tag e and they can talk about worldbuilding things? anything that is easiest for you!

Or I can be a terrible person and say why not both, like that taco commercial... Honestly if it's up to me to pick I'll be a true gamer and defer to RNG.

I'LL LEAVE IT UP TO YOU THEN i'm terrible at making decisions and get a little obsessive

(thank you! ♥)

Okay RNG gave me an odd number (odd 9S, even Jude), so come at me. Best three out of five...my results were three and five, haha.

After that thread, if you'd be for it, I'd be happy to tag into yours too.

i think that sounds good! \o/ i'll go ahead right now and we'll do another thread afterward!

It's a plan! Shorties on parade.

question! am i allowed to mention 2b or do you guys have a sort of plot planned for their inevitable meeting already? i don't want to intervene on anything by mistake by bringing it up! i was/am also running under the assumption that the tdm thread is game canon, btw, but i think i made that obvious...

They met in the TDM, and also running with that being game canon, so he's met up with 2B to their mutual confusion. That's how 9S has gathered that Jude must have met her since he identified him as an android with that "do all androids wear blindfolds?" question. If he's noticed a trend, he must've seen the only other local YoRHa unit.

okay! that's pretty much what i gathered but i just wanted to ask you to be totally sure. ♥

Sorry I wasn't clearer on that! Looking back on my tag I didn't state it plainly, so I'll be more mindful ♥

nooo it's fine!! i didn't mind asking at all! and you can ask me anything whenever, too. ♥

Okay!

Boxers or briefs, Jude?

...Look we know the answer for 9S because of self-destruct.

KDHDJFHJDHF self-destruct, the most important in-game feature

(boxers probably. i have no expert basis for this)

I love that it's equal opportunity, not just 2B's outfit getting blown apart. Also did you notice if you stand them both on a ledge they'll peer down together? The details are so good...

(I believe it)

I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT... CUTE!!! i played a-e of course but i really want to replay it already. it was just such a good experience. or at the very least i want to hop chapters and go sidequest hunting since i haven't gotten a bunch of trophies!

It became my favorite game, ousting one I'd loved since childhood...kind of wild. But there are so many details, and I'm so keen on the fact that Yoko Taro oversaw all the writing for the side materials, so everything fits together so neatly...

It's a lit nerd's dream.

The sidequests are amazing for their world-building, I highly recommend them. Have you done Amnesia? It's...horrifying, knowing what you do after C/D.

i just googled it and no, i didn't! unfortunately a few of the sidequests i was stuck on were pretty tedious so i ended up taking a break (and now i'm playing ffxii lmao) but i might have to go back to it asap. uuuUUUUUGH I JUST LOVED IT TOO it def made it into, like, my top five at least, and that's not an easy feat.

it makes me happy you found a game you're so passionate about, though ;w; resonating with media is always a wonderful feeling

Reks was my favorite...I like the unfortunate ones, poor lads. My least favorite sidequest was Speedstar for sure, but man, that one and the unit that wants you to help him upgrade himself repeatedly have such interesting resolutions with 9S in particular. It's great that he gripes about fetch-quests.

People say the game is a piece of art, and I'm inclined to agree for sure. The writing's just so detailed and satisfying, but that's just what I'd expect from Yoko Taro. He only gets better with time.

I'm always happy to find something like that, or follow along when people talk about things they're really into. There's a unique energy about it.

9S GRIPING ABOUT FETCH QUESTS AND 2B TELLING HIM TO DEAL WAS SO CUTE such a cute detail again.

i'm just.... glad they finally gave yoko taro a budget.... and i'm sure sinoalice is raking in the $$$$$$$$$ too so hopefully we'll be getting more from him sooner than later?

i am too! i love talking to people about things they love and i love talking to people about things i love. it just makes me happy to see other people happy.

There are so many cute details, it makes the pain even worse.

I watch whales spend so much on SINoALICE in its discord server so I mean. I think it's doing quite well indeed. Actually if I pick up a second character, I'm heavily considering Alice. ~~Need to make sure I'm active enough with this little guy first though~~

Same! I can appreciate your tastes. It's so great seeing people excited, and in person, you get to watch how they light up and everything. Same goes for thoughtful gifts...the best of sports, finding just the right thing.

well you're doing great on the activity front so far!!! alice would be so neat to app.

yes, absolutely! ♥ ahhh it's so nice to have someone to go back and forth with

I thought "chains of restriction" (conjuring chains) would be a fun magic ability for her if I do give her a go. Her story's really compelling I think, between main events and things like the Clock Rabbit event.

♥ Agreed on that. Also I'm glad you're around in the afternoons, I work obscenely early hours and I felt bad I had to turn in when there were tags last night, but well. Gotta sleep.

i haven't been all too invested in sinoalice besides saving obscene amounts of crystals for the automata event later this month (i'm past 3.5k) so i'll need to read up on it online, but i do love the designs and interface and everything! i remember days of maintenance hell when it first started, though.

sleep is important!!! it's 8:22 here, actually, but i'm always around in the late morning/afternoon. early mornings are occasional.
