3rd dialogue option in the beginning has me hyped for the future of ngs

3rd dialogue will reminds you something familiar, also some flashback of your past, life partner.

One twist I'm struck by on the base "farming humanity" trope with the Starless, is that in this case the humans fighting back, and becoming more capable of fighting back, is not only expected, but part of the goal. Something doesn't engage in such a plot unless they're very sure they can manage the risks. The easy answer is that there's a trap made so that fighting back will fail somehow and cause the cast to seek out answers to resolve it, but the alternate option is that the prospect of Vael's defeat is something the Starless not only anticipated, but planned for.

Its the Matrix/Mass Effect plotline all over again...Im not complaining I like these plotlines LUL

@theoaremevano3227 6 ай бұрын

Well, more specifically, your character seeing the giant replica of the Clarissa in the center jogged your character's memories of Matoi. :D 3rd and 4th paragraphs will mention plot details. The only gripes I have are 1: There's ZERO transition between this Halpha and Nameless. Would have liked to see how we got there- at least showing the part of Leciel that had the teleporter. and 2: The 3 characters we're with have a bit of a downside of being very... similar in how they express themselves, particularly in this type of situation. Like, Manon has changed but still speaks pretty hesitantly, Pharia talks even more like that, and Aina speaks more cautiously when in unknown situations like this, which might be part of why some people aren't digging the voice work. In general, I find that at least with American voices, people get annoyed with hesitance, even when it makes sense. I think it just has a way of grating on people, either a little or a lot depending on the person. One thing I have to compliment is the way they did the scene where they talked about 909. They didn't just tell you 'hey, did you know this? Weird, huh?' like they usually would. They take you over to the pod and tell you 'THIS is 909's pod. This person inside IS 909.... so who the hell are YOU?' which was a way more interesting way of expressing the same story beat. That's the kind of thing I hope to see more of in the future; doing more to really sell the plot points beyond just explaining them. Most importantly, they FINALLY left an open plot point; something that can affect later chapters at any time. Vael might show up anywhere now, in any number of forms, even a friendly one (if he's in an ARKS body, he might be able to retain a disguise). Of course, given all the customization on NGS, I like to imagine him showing up in Central City in a full Starless ARKS form, expecting terror and instead everyone just gives him Kudos and says 'nice fit, man!" Just business as usual on Sh.3, really. We already have a Starless Falz and a replica of the Starless Relyn. XD

This chapter was easily the best we ve gotten in NGS so far. We got some good answers, but also a hell of a lot more questions: We know what they want, but what even are the Starless? Who is Vael? Is he entirely new, or has he appeared in a different form in the series before? Its pretty much confirmed that we are the original Guardian. We didn`t come from Leciel or Nameless, so where? I don`t think Nameless is on an actual ARKS ship, but there may be some remnant of Oracle nearby. If not Zepphetto, who thawed us out? Man I havent been this hyped in a long time.

@KronoKatastrophy 6 ай бұрын

IDK i think nameless is 100% from the ARKS ship. Remember there were a bunch of ships and all of the buildings are written in base pso2 arks language.

@theoaremevano3227 6 ай бұрын

@@KronoKatastrophy : Given Oracle was a whole fleet and Resurgent ARKS just left and did their own thing, it's surely an old ARKS ship, and by the sound of it, they might have all come on just one ship, or maybe two, the first of which became building materials for Halpha.

I love that the third option is making people go back to playing pso2 so that theyll be ready in the future I like that theyre setting up starless to be something similar to og pso dark falz. I am praying sega cooks cause weve been having a generic story for 3 years but this is a promising start

Inb4 this makes us use weapons that aren't powered by photons. Bouncers will shoot a near endless supply of metal blades instead of photon blades 😂 Technique heavy classes like Forces, Techters, and JB Bouncers will fight with ice cubes, lighter fluid, tasers, miniature fans, flashlights, and black paint. Photon arts? Nah, we're just cracked beyond belief. Photon blasts? Nah, phantasy plastic explosives.
