  1. See this, here
  2. [18-Nov-13 8:18:28 PM] Amadeus Koch: It's hard to trace how the timeline starts
  3. [18-Nov-13 8:18:55 PM] Jaed "Kilin" Norberg: (2020) Terminys
  4. [18-Nov-13 8:18:55 PM] colseed: top to bottom, i presume
  5. [18-Nov-13 8:19:20 PM] colseed: also i notice (2009) taizen chisou and the tomb of horribleness
  6. [18-Nov-13 8:19:55 PM] colseed: that is interesting though
  7. [18-Nov-13 8:20:15 PM] Amadeus Koch: Taizen Chisou [...] actually takes place over Days 19 and 20 of Chaos Weapon
  8. [18-Nov-13 8:20:18 PM] Amadeus Koch: Which...
  9. [18-Nov-13 8:20:57 PM] Amadeus Koch: Appears to be Sunday, September 14th, of 2009, and the next day
  10. [18-Nov-13 8:21:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: Well anyway
  11. [18-Nov-13 8:21:37 PM] Amadeus Koch: This asshat named Sampson Rhodes from Dawn of the New World tries to destroy existence
  12. [18-Nov-13 8:21:54 PM] Amadeus Koch: Well, that's inaccurate to say, considering he didn't know that following the steps outlined in the Ragnagest would destroy existence
  13. [18-Nov-13 8:22:14 PM] colseed: >has start of "ragnarok" in the title
  14. [18-Nov-13 8:22:22 PM] colseed: you'd think he'd have gotten the hint
  15. [18-Nov-13 8:22:39 PM] Amadeus Koch: So he does that, but he botches the process which results in a sort of half-assed apocalypse in which every parallel universe in existence all merge at Earth
  16. [18-Nov-13 8:22:43 PM] Amadeus Koch: Resulting in some rather novel oddities
  17. [18-Nov-13 8:23:07 PM] Amadeus Koch: Amadeus Koch looks at notes for underground skyscraper dungeons and shopping malls sticking out of floating islands
  18. [18-Nov-13 8:23:12 PM] colseed: heheh
  19. [18-Nov-13 8:23:27 PM] colseed: it does sound like it could make for some rather fantastical environments, yes
  20. [18-Nov-13 8:24:06 PM] Amadeus Koch: His attempts to try out the Ragnagest again lead him to meet Sashahan Triga, a queen of a large portion of the planet who is really puzzled at the sudden annexation of 85 other versions of her kingdom
  21. [18-Nov-13 8:24:19 PM] colseed: pf
  22. [18-Nov-13 8:25:41 PM] Amadeus Koch: Dawn of the New World is structured in three parts, over which you're given a different party member, they're all explained as pocket universes that each get destroyed as the plane of the Ragnagest jumps back and forth through them
  23. [18-Nov-13 8:26:29 PM] Amadeus Koch: through the events of the game, however, Sashahan's empire falls and is slowly re-kingdomized into the world of Storia Strana
  24. [18-Nov-13 8:27:04 PM] Amadeus Koch: in Storia Strana, you play as a regular 18-year-old farm boy whose life aspiration is to rescue the princess Corolena from the tall tower on an island to the south of the kingdom
  25. [18-Nov-13 8:27:12 PM] Amadeus Koch: ...So you do
  26. [18-Nov-13 8:27:16 PM] colseed: lozl
  27. [18-Nov-13 8:27:27 PM] Amadeus Koch: And then she throws him into an "unescapable" dungeon
  28. [18-Nov-13 8:27:30 PM] Amadeus Koch: (this is a test)
  29. [18-Nov-13 8:27:50 PM] colseed: oh that's nice of her
  30. does she give him 5 things to pick up along the way too
  31. [18-Nov-13 8:28:14 PM] Amadeus Koch: when he breaks out, she takes him on a worldwide tour murder extravaganza where the objective is to kill all of the other monarchs and take over their kingdoms
  32. [18-Nov-13 8:28:46 PM] colseed: pocket universes and worldwide bloody coup
  33. [18-Nov-13 8:28:52 PM] colseed: you have my attention
  34. [18-Nov-13 8:29:40 PM] Amadeus Koch: Each of the monarchs in their kingdoms ascend to higher planes as dieties because that was a thing that happened back then
  35. [18-Nov-13 8:30:04 PM] Amadeus Koch: upon the defeat of the last one, an enormous horribleness occurs, leading to mass land movements and cataclysms for a long-ass time
  36. [18-Nov-13 8:30:20 PM] colseed: heh, "horribleness"
  37. [18-Nov-13 8:30:21 PM] Amadeus Koch: (no points for guessing who the last one is)
  38. [18-Nov-13 8:30:36 PM] Amadeus Koch: This segues into the modern-day world
  39. [18-Nov-13 8:31:01 PM] Amadeus Koch: The world goes quiet for a bit, but then picks up again at Dungeon Quest Man, in 2002
  40. [18-Nov-13 8:31:35 PM] Amadeus Koch: (All of the following is spoilers by the way)
  41. [18-Nov-13 8:32:17 PM] Amadeus Koch: The protagonist, Sherah [surname], has volunteered to be entered into sort of a mental gridspace thing in which his consciousness is datafied and he is turned into a living robotic AI thing
  42. [18-Nov-13 8:33:09 PM] Amadeus Koch: Each of the levels in the game are representative of different parts of his brain as you (Data Sherah) go through defeating the various guardians, who are very large and inflated reflections of emotions
  43. [18-Nov-13 8:33:56 PM] Amadeus Koch: As the thought processes and memory banks are worn away, you start fighting representations of Sherah's wife and child, and suddenly the final boss is him himself
  44. [18-Nov-13 8:34:19 PM] Raitaki: Continuity? In Taizen's games?
  45. [18-Nov-13 8:34:21 PM] Raitaki: What
  46. [18-Nov-13 8:34:21 PM] Amadeus Koch: He goes down in one hit of course, because you've already erased everything else in his brains
  47. [18-Nov-13 8:34:22 PM] Raitaki: WHAT
  48. [18-Nov-13 8:34:37 PM] Raitaki: lol 3 dawns of new world
  49. [18-Nov-13 8:34:40 PM] colseed: slow down, rai
  50. [18-Nov-13 8:34:45 PM] Raitaki: this world must crash a lot
  51. [18-Nov-13 8:34:48 PM] colseed: you might pop a gasket
  52. [18-Nov-13 8:34:54 PM] Raitaki: Raitaki pops a gasket
  53. [18-Nov-13 8:34:55 PM] colseed: and it won't be like with the zombies
  54. [18-Nov-13 8:34:59 PM] colseed: shieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet
  55. [18-Nov-13 8:35:17 PM] Raitaki: :V
  56. [18-Nov-13 8:35:37 PM] Amadeus Koch: With this complete, Sherah becomes nothing more than a sort of data-entity and infects the network systems in the laboratories in which he works
  57. [18-Nov-13 8:35:57 PM] Raitaki: goddamnit
  58. [18-Nov-13 8:36:10 PM] Raitaki: you stole my idea for APOCRYPHA >:C
  59. [18-Nov-13 8:37:02 PM] Amadeus Koch: He transfers himself to some secret government site places, and launches himself as a spaceship into orbit and is not seen or heard of again for 500 years
  60. [18-Nov-13 8:38:09 PM] Amadeus Koch: Bahahaha, continuity
  61. [18-Nov-13 8:38:20 PM] Raitaki: inb4 LS boss
  62. [18-Nov-13 8:38:26 PM] Raitaki: Wait
  63. [18-Nov-13 8:38:30 PM] Raitaki: HE IS THE HYDRA FLEET
  64. [18-Nov-13 8:38:34 PM] Raitaki: OHMYGOOOOOD
  65. [18-Nov-13 8:39:17 PM] Amadeus Koch: All of the things that happen are-
  66. [18-Nov-13 8:39:22 PM] Amadeus Koch: Hmm, I'll save this for the end.
  67. [18-Nov-13 8:39:48 PM] Amadeus Koch: Uh, Chaos Weapon starts up seven years later.
  68. [18-Nov-13 8:40:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: In some nondescript town in Nowhere, the US, a 17-year-old and his friends attend the first day of the 12th grade
  69. [18-Nov-13 8:40:39 PM] Amadeus Koch: Shit happens almost immediately
  70. [18-Nov-13 8:40:51 PM] Raitaki: For no reason
  71. [18-Nov-13 8:40:53 PM] Raitaki: Whatsoever
  72. [18-Nov-13 8:40:55 PM] Raitaki: Just cuz
  73. [18-Nov-13 8:40:55 PM] Raitaki: C:
  74. [18-Nov-13 8:41:13 PM] Raitaki: WELL EXCEPT FOR TAYLOR
  75. [18-Nov-13 8:41:19 PM] Raitaki: THE TRAITOR TO GLASSESFOLK EVERYWHERE
  76. [18-Nov-13 8:41:33 PM] Amadeus Koch: Magic as it was in 1540 (Storia Strana) was rediscovered at some indeterminate point before the first day of school
  77. [18-Nov-13 8:41:42 PM] Amadeus Koch: So an asshat and his Russian friend decide to bring ALL OF IT BACK
  78. [18-Nov-13 8:41:56 PM] Raitaki: > Gideon being involved
  79. [18-Nov-13 8:42:00 PM] Raitaki: > Sux at magix
  80. [18-Nov-13 8:42:04 PM] Raitaki: gdi gid
  81. [18-Nov-13 8:42:12 PM] Amadeus Koch: Keegan's better at it, you see
  82. [18-Nov-13 8:42:17 PM] Raitaki: lel
  83. [18-Nov-13 8:43:06 PM] Amadeus Koch: Their campaign involves resurrecting the element dieties who have been sleeping for the past 500 years to amplify the magical entropy of the universe by quite a few times
  84. [18-Nov-13 8:43:43 PM] Amadeus Koch: This is explained via gameplay by each successive elemental boss being more powerful than the last and having the magic organized into power tiers
  85. [18-Nov-13 8:43:57 PM] Amadeus Koch: Ice magic is inherently stronger than Water in this game
  86. [18-Nov-13 8:44:06 PM] colseed: huh ok
  87. [18-Nov-13 8:44:40 PM] Amadeus Koch: So they do that while maintaining contact with some shadowy figure that the game only vaguely tells you about
  88. [18-Nov-13 8:44:52 PM] Amadeus Koch: The shadowy figure is like "hey, put them all together"
  89. [18-Nov-13 8:45:09 PM] Amadeus Koch: Doing so would make the Chaos Weapon, of course
  90. [18-Nov-13 8:45:12 PM] Raitaki: and they get exerca, the greatest of them all
  91. [18-Nov-13 8:45:13 PM] Raitaki: yes
  92. [18-Nov-13 8:45:31 PM] Amadeus Koch: Protagonist Dude and the rest of the player party must now all rise together to slap them about the face
  93. [18-Nov-13 8:46:05 PM] Amadeus Koch: You might ask, why is it that you have to defeat the element Guns if that only helps their plan?
  94. [18-Nov-13 8:46:23 PM] Amadeus Koch: Well you tell me if you want a fire god / lightning god just roaming around zapping shit
  95. [18-Nov-13 8:46:31 PM] Raitaki: you are all high school kids and therefore dumb as fuck
  96. [18-Nov-13 8:46:33 PM] Raitaki: Raitaki shot
  97. [18-Nov-13 8:46:38 PM] Amadeus Koch: Nah, Darius is 21

  101. [18-Nov-13 8:46:52 PM] Raitaki: > High school
  102. [18-Nov-13 8:46:56 PM] Amadeus Koch: He's not a high school student
  103. [18-Nov-13 8:47:00 PM] Raitaki: [18 November, 2013 8:49 PM] Yoshraika™:

  105. <<< therefore dumb as fuck
  106. [18-Nov-13 8:47:02 PM] Raitaki: oh
  107. [18-Nov-13 8:47:07 PM] Raitaki: High school dropout?
  108. [18-Nov-13 8:47:10 PM] Amadeus Koch: He's dropping off his brother, who is a high school student
  109. [18-Nov-13 8:47:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: Said brother gets statueized
  110. [18-Nov-13 8:47:16 PM] Raitaki: lel
  111. [18-Nov-13 8:47:34 PM] Amadeus Koch: Vanessa works in the library at the school
  112. [18-Nov-13 8:47:57 PM] Amadeus Koch: She takes charge of the refuge place that gets set up on the island after the business goes down
  113. [18-Nov-13 8:48:27 PM] Amadeus Koch: She and Darius join when the party gets to the refuge area
  114. [18-Nov-13 8:48:47 PM] Amadeus Koch: Those poor muggles are trapped on the island because they're not magically inclined enough to make use of Chantelise's portals to and from the mainland, tee hee
  115. [18-Nov-13 8:49:01 PM] Amadeus Koch: Anyway
  116. [18-Nov-13 8:49:37 PM] Amadeus Koch: Partway through the game, Taizen Chisou bla bla bla begins when the player party defeats the last Element Gun
  117. [18-Nov-13 8:49:38 PM] Raitaki: my god
  118. [18-Nov-13 8:49:44 PM] Raitaki: actual plot
  119. [18-Nov-13 8:49:59 PM] Raitaki: my respect of CW is rapidly falling apart
  120. [18-Nov-13 8:50:00 PM] Raitaki: ;_;
  121. [18-Nov-13 8:50:03 PM] Amadeus Koch: Hahaha
  122. [18-Nov-13 8:50:46 PM] Amadeus Koch: [18 November, 2013 8:49 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  123.  
  124. <<< Partway through the game, Taizen Chisou bla bla bla begins when the player party defeats the last Element GunAfter the Light-elemental is defeated, a mysterious crevasse appears in the Gobi Desert
  125. [18-Nov-13 8:50:59 PM] Raitaki: ....Gobi Desert.
  126. [18-Nov-13 8:51:28 PM] Amadeus Koch: Taizen Chisou, adventurer and thief from Hokkaido, immediately goes to investigate because it's probably full of things
  127. [18-Nov-13 8:51:42 PM] Raitaki: lel
  128. [18-Nov-13 8:51:54 PM] Amadeus Koch: And there are things!
  129. [18-Nov-13 8:52:06 PM] Amadeus Koch: Like a crypt/tomb/temple thing that's dedicated to the god of chaos
  130. [18-Nov-13 8:52:09 PM] Amadeus Koch: yaaay
  131. [18-Nov-13 8:52:12 PM] Raitaki: He gets eaten by a Mongolian death worm, THE END
  132. [18-Nov-13 8:52:20 PM] Raitaki: Raitaki rolls credits
  133. [18-Nov-13 8:52:37 PM] colseed: sounds like the perfect place for a nice little "archaeological" walk
  134. [18-Nov-13 8:52:45 PM] colseed: with quick fingers
  135. [18-Nov-13 8:52:47 PM] Amadeus Koch: Bahaha
  136. [18-Nov-13 8:52:50 PM] Raitaki: :V
  137. [18-Nov-13 8:52:54 PM] Amadeus Koch: fun fact, one of the other people he encounters
  138. [18-Nov-13 8:52:56 PM] Amadeus Koch: Sophia Wolfram

  140. [18-Nov-13 8:53:06 PM] Amadeus Koch: She flies in from Germany
  141. [18-Nov-13 8:53:12 PM] Amadeus Koch: Also, Frances LeBret, a curator

  144. [18-Nov-13 8:53:28 PM] Raitaki: congregation of archaeological nerds
  145. [18-Nov-13 8:53:39 PM] Amadeus Koch: Regardless
  146. [18-Nov-13 8:53:44 PM] Raitaki: inb4 indiana jones reboot
  147. [18-Nov-13 8:53:46 PM] Amadeus Koch: Taizen and Lotus are there to steal shit
  148. [18-Nov-13 8:53:51 PM] Raitaki: yep
  149. [18-Nov-13 8:53:53 PM] Amadeus Koch: And Sophia and Frances... aren't
  150. [18-Nov-13 8:53:57 PM] Raitaki: who are the nazis
  151. [18-Nov-13 8:54:03 PM] Raitaki: are they actual nazis
  152. [18-Nov-13 8:54:10 PM] Raitaki: are just like really smart mongolian death worms
  153. [18-Nov-13 8:54:18 PM] Raitaki: **or
  154. [18-Nov-13 8:54:20 PM] Amadeus Koch: Trae tried to put in an antagonist that is somewhat like the nazis
  155. [18-Nov-13 8:54:24 PM] Amadeus Koch: but I stepped on those plans
  156. [18-Nov-13 8:54:24 PM] Raitaki: lel
  157. [18-Nov-13 8:54:28 PM] Raitaki: Trae?

  159. [18-Nov-13 8:54:34 PM] colseed: heh
  160. [18-Nov-13 8:54:41 PM] Raitaki: olol
  161. [18-Nov-13 8:54:52 PM] Amadeus Koch: I prefer, to refer to him as Trae
  162. [18-Nov-13 8:54:59 PM | Edited 8:55:00 PM] Amadeus Koch: Given Umbra is a Lunacy Indeterminate entity
  163. [18-Nov-13 8:55:04 PM] Raitaki: lul
  164. [18-Nov-13 8:55:14 PM] Raitaki: I'M CALLING HIM ELL FROM NOW ON

  177. <<< So they do that while maintaining contact with some shadowy figure that the game only vaguely tells you about
  178. The shadowy figure is like "hey, put them all together"
  179. [18-Nov-13 8:56:17 PM] Amadeus Koch: [18 November, 2013 8:56 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  180.  
  181. <<< some shadowy figure
  182. [18-Nov-13 8:56:45 PM] colseed: i c u there background antagonist
  183. [18-Nov-13 8:57:05 PM] Amadeus Koch: Chaos is absent from Days 19 and 20 of Chaos Weapon because some asshats have broken into his pad and are stealing shit
  184. [18-Nov-13 8:57:10 PM] Raitaki: lol
  185. [18-Nov-13 8:58:02 PM] Amadeus Koch: It takes a party of 10 to put down Chaos's invention, the titular Weapon
  186. [18-Nov-13 8:58:14 PM] Amadeus Koch: Taizen is tasked with single-handedly smacking him upside the face
  187. [18-Nov-13 8:58:43 PM] Raitaki: you egoistical fuck
  188. [18-Nov-13 8:58:46 PM] Amadeus Koch: So, he does.
  189. [18-Nov-13 8:59:37 PM] Raitaki: I'M GONNA GO START UP STATE OF DECAY BEFORE YOU GET ME TO WANT TO MAKE PLOT FOR MY OCS OR SOME SHIT
  190. [18-Nov-13 8:59:45 PM] Amadeus Koch: Devoid of direction, on Day 21 of Chaos Weapon, Keegan unsuccessfully (well, assuming you do defeat it) tries to fire the Weapon
  191. [18-Nov-13 8:59:47 PM] Raitaki: ; v;
  192. [18-Nov-13 8:59:48 PM] colseed: heheh
  193. [18-Nov-13 9:00:18 PM] Amadeus Koch: After you do defeat it, Gideon leaves the party and instead tries to kill you
  194. [18-Nov-13 9:01:01 PM] Amadeus Koch: On the sidelines, Chaos has surfaced and combines the Weapon with the both of them
  195. [18-Nov-13 9:01:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: Keegan is the mental power, Gideon is the physical power
  196. [18-Nov-13 9:01:40 PM] Amadeus Koch: That is the final boss of the game, assuming you don't do this one sidequest that ousts the second background antagonist
  197. [18-Nov-13 9:02:13 PM] Amadeus Koch: All of the events that I've mentioned just now
  198. [18-Nov-13 9:02:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: All of them
  199. [18-Nov-13 9:02:24 PM] Amadeus Koch: Have been orchestrated by this dude named Umbra
  200. [18-Nov-13 9:02:37 PM] Raitaki: lel
  201. [18-Nov-13 9:02:43 PM] Amadeus Koch: In a grand overarching scheme to overthrow Chaos, his brother
  202. [18-Nov-13 9:02:56 PM] Raitaki: Let's punch him next time he gets on IRC or w/e
  203. [18-Nov-13 9:03:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: If you do not defeat Umbra, the world leads to Credence Filter
  204. [18-Nov-13 9:03:24 PM] Amadeus Koch: If you do, it leads to Sana from Death and Lunacy Star
  205. [18-Nov-13 9:03:41 PM] Raitaki: What's Credence Filter about
  206. [18-Nov-13 9:03:53 PM] colseed: umbra...sounds oddly fitting for such a character
  207. [18-Nov-13 9:04:08 PM] Raitaki: Lunacy Indeterminate: When a story branch spawns MULTIPLE GAEMS
  208. [18-Nov-13 9:04:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: Sana from Death is a comic, thank you
  209. [18-Nov-13 9:04:24 PM] Raitaki: 2 is multiple
  210. [18-Nov-13 9:04:24 PM] Raitaki: :<
  211. [18-Nov-13 9:04:26 PM] Jaed "Kilin" Norberg: Taizen wants to be Zelda.

  213. [18-Nov-13 9:05:12 PM] colseed: i feel like zelda had slightly less ambitious beginnings though
  214. [18-Nov-13 9:05:16 PM] colseed: call it a hunch
  215. [18-Nov-13 9:05:22 PM] Amadeus Koch: Sana from Death happens as Death, or the Grim Reaper, or what-have-you, fires his daughter from the task of reaping souls and exterminating ghosts
  216. [18-Nov-13 9:05:33 PM] Amadeus Koch: (This position is refered to as a Lithecer)
  217. [18-Nov-13 9:05:34 PM] Jaed "Kilin" Norberg: I like this person.
  218. [18-Nov-13 9:05:40 PM] Jaed "Kilin" Norberg: Ex-Lithecer
  219. [18-Nov-13 9:05:54 PM] Amadeus Koch: (She wields a scythe.)
  220. [18-Nov-13 9:06:04 PM] Amadeus Koch: Anyway, her termination from her job happens from out of fucking nowhere-
  221. [18-Nov-13 9:06:27 PM] Amadeus Koch: (Failing to stop the generation of hundreds of Ghosts by letting a train explode by terrorists probably helped)-
  222. [18-Nov-13 9:06:48 PM] Amadeus Koch: so she tries to go up to her dad to go "wtf"
  223. [18-Nov-13 9:07:07 PM] Amadeus Koch: The train mishap miiiiight have been related to this random dude that can see her
  224. [18-Nov-13 9:07:22 PM] Amadeus Koch: You know, the first human who's ever been able to see her
  225. [18-Nov-13 9:08:17 PM] Amadeus Koch: He completely botches her operation to evacuate the masses from the train so they don't turn into demonic ghosts
  226. [18-Nov-13 9:08:59 PM] Amadeus Koch: And then like
  227. [18-Nov-13 9:09:18 PM] Amadeus Koch: Out of nowhere, Death starts a plan to kill all humans
  228. [18-Nov-13 9:09:26 PM] Amadeus Koch: Right after she gets fired and regains mortality
  229. [18-Nov-13 9:09:54 PM] colseed: heh
  230. [18-Nov-13 9:10:00 PM] Amadeus Koch: The two god brothers mentioned above have a third sibling, Sol
  231. [18-Nov-13 9:10:14 PM] Amadeus Koch: He's the one in charge of life after death, the good flavor
  232. [18-Nov-13 9:10:18 PM] Amadeus Koch: You know, heaven
  233. [18-Nov-13 9:10:19 PM] Amadeus Koch: Anyway
  234. [18-Nov-13 9:10:29 PM] colseed: so...elysian fie-okay that too
  235. [18-Nov-13 9:10:40 PM] Amadeus Koch: Heaven derives it's powers from the living humans
  236. [18-Nov-13 9:10:49 PM] Amadeus Koch: Sooooo if there ARE no humans, no power
  237. [18-Nov-13 9:10:56 PM] Amadeus Koch: No power? You can't reset all of existence
  238. [18-Nov-13 9:11:21 PM] Amadeus Koch: If you can't reset existence, you cannot ensure that you are able to survive forever
  239. [18-Nov-13 9:11:30 PM] Amadeus Koch: Which, to most gods, I guess is a pretty negative thing
  240. [18-Nov-13 9:12:02 PM] Amadeus Koch: Death catches onto this from his new personal assistant, Esora
  241. [18-Nov-13 9:12:45 PM] Amadeus Koch: Who is actually a fallen angel in disguise that's been sent to kill him and take his place, as a Death that WON'T kill all humans
  242. [18-Nov-13 9:13:25 PM] Amadeus Koch: All of the events are because of her fuck-up
  243. [18-Nov-13 9:13:59 PM] Amadeus Koch: She fucks up again when she fails to consider Sana and Tono's idiotic capabilities for survival, being the protagonists of the story
  244. [18-Nov-13 9:14:06 PM] Raitaki: lol
  245. [18-Nov-13 9:14:33 PM] Amadeus Koch: So when she succeeds at killing Death, she in turn is defeated by Sana and Tono... after all of the humans are killed and removed from the cycle of reincarnation anyway
  246. [18-Nov-13 9:15:22 PM] Amadeus Koch: Tono becomes the new Death, and Sana leaves for Earth to wander around for signs of life
  247. [18-Nov-13 9:15:51 PM] Amadeus Koch: (He was able to see her, by the way, due to their common trait of being half-angels)
  248. [18-Nov-13 9:16:10 PM] Amadeus Koch: (there's this deal where heaven dudes are sent down to have kids that will automatically ascend)
  249. [18-Nov-13 9:16:57 PM] Amadeus Koch: (heaven's flagging numbers have led to a substantial decline in miracles and all that bullshit so before it got entirely devoid of followers and imploded the people in charge decided to hit a reset button)
  250. [18-Nov-13 9:17:48 PM] Raitaki: lel
  251. [18-Nov-13 9:17:53 PM] Amadeus Koch: (sana is a half-angel child from 1776 who was taken down to Hell when Death strolled by to reap her mom who died from childbirth)
  252. [18-Nov-13 9:18:16 PM] colseed: you're...starting to lose me a bit
  253. [18-Nov-13 9:18:17 PM] Raitaki: reap or raep
  254. [18-Nov-13 9:18:22 PM] Raitaki: or both
  255. [18-Nov-13 9:18:23 PM] Raitaki: 8D
  256. [18-Nov-13 9:18:26 PM] Amadeus Koch: Reap.
  257. [18-Nov-13 9:18:36 PM] Amadeus Koch: Anyway colseed, that's the most confusing part of it anyway
  258. [18-Nov-13 9:18:38 PM] Amadeus Koch: it WAS
  259. [18-Nov-13 9:18:41 PM] colseed: lozl
  260. [18-Nov-13 9:18:42 PM] Amadeus Koch: a 230-page comic book
  261. [18-Nov-13 9:18:46 PM] colseed: ohh
  262. [18-Nov-13 9:18:50 PM] colseed: so that's where that was from
  263. [18-Nov-13 9:19:31 PM] Amadeus Koch: So part of the dimensional asshattery in Dawn of the New World
  264. [18-Nov-13 9:19:47 PM] Amadeus Koch: Spat out a copy of a city from Storia Strana in 2242 that stuck
  265. [18-Nov-13 9:20:17 PM] Amadeus Koch: The city was the capital of a kingdom, which was surrounded by walls
  266. [18-Nov-13 9:20:22 PM] Amadeus Koch: This was the city of Estherson
  267. [18-Nov-13 9:21:01 PM] Amadeus Koch: It got zapped down into existence along with 260 ~ 300 humans
  268. [18-Nov-13 9:21:25 PM] Amadeus Koch: All aged 11 to 19
  269. [18-Nov-13 9:22:27 PM] Amadeus Koch: Tono, from Sana From Death, assumes the identity of Alban Ginestri, the "mayor" of New Estherson, and puts out a very helpful broadcast
  270. [18-Nov-13 9:23:06 PM] Amadeus Koch: "There are 278 of you here within this city, where there will be no rules nor a force in play to enforce any"
  271. [18-Nov-13 9:23:17 PM] Amadeus Koch: (optimistic stuff about being the last hope of humanity)
  272. [18-Nov-13 9:23:42 PM] Amadeus Koch: The city promptly melts down
  273. [18-Nov-13 9:24:43 PM] Amadeus Koch: There are a lot of civil wars, factions, guerrilla warfare tactics, subversion, lying, and cheating that happens
  274. [18-Nov-13 9:24:55 PM] colseed: heh
  275. [18-Nov-13 9:25:02 PM] Amadeus Koch: [18 November, 2013 9:21 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  276.  
  277. <<< All aged 11 to 19
  278. [18-Nov-13 9:25:06 PM] colseed: oh
  279. [18-Nov-13 9:25:11 PM] colseed: sounds like lord of the flies time
  280. [18-Nov-13 9:25:20 PM] colseed: with more females maybe
  281. [18-Nov-13 9:25:41 PM] Amadeus Koch: The player assumes the role of Tobias Cross, a 19-year old, who has to decide who he will ally with and who to betray and who to wage war against
  282. [18-Nov-13 9:25:55 PM] Amadeus Koch: All in all, there are 29 endings to this story
  283. [18-Nov-13 9:26:14 PM] Raitaki: rofl
  284. [18-Nov-13 9:26:16 PM] colseed: 29...endings...
  285. [18-Nov-13 9:26:19 PM] colseed: colseed asdfs
  286. [18-Nov-13 9:26:57 PM] Amadeus Koch: The one in which he successfully
  287. 1) doesn't die
  288. 2) assemble the Map of Ginestri
  289. 3) follows said map to where it is meant to take someone
  290. [18-Nov-13 9:27:03 PM] Amadeus Koch: Is the canonical ending
  291. [18-Nov-13 9:28:03 PM] Amadeus Koch: In which he meets the new Death, and is charged with the task of sending a fleet of humans off into space (in the past) to find somewhere else to live
  292. [18-Nov-13 9:28:16 PM] Amadeus Koch: So they do.
  293. [18-Nov-13 9:28:26 PM] Amadeus Koch: [18 November, 2013 8:37 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  294.  
  295. <<< He transfers himself to some secret government site places, and launches himself as a spaceship into orbit and is not seen or heard of again for 500 years
  296. [18-Nov-13 9:28:41 PM] Amadeus Koch: Well this.
  297. [18-Nov-13 9:28:46 PM] colseed: this...feels like it is getting rather close to leading into lunacy star
  298. [18-Nov-13 9:29:43 PM] Amadeus Koch: As the story of Lunacy Star goes, an incredibly strange, extradimensional entity has come into being in the middle of deep, uncharted space
  299. [18-Nov-13 9:30:14 PM] Amadeus Koch: It's been detained within the Outer Ring Fortress (stage 5 setting) by the Hydra Fleet (stage 4 boss)
  300. [18-Nov-13 9:30:41 PM] Amadeus Koch: The Stage 5 boss
  301. [18-Nov-13 9:30:51 PM] Amadeus Koch: Is the lock on the door to the sanctum of the Lunacy Star
  302. [18-Nov-13 9:31:47 PM] colseed: so naturally the protagonist's first idea is to go and confront it while breaking all the security checks in place around it
  303. [18-Nov-13 9:31:58 PM] colseed: which might just keep it in check should he/she fail
  304. [18-Nov-13 9:32:01 PM] colseed: ...
  305. [18-Nov-13 9:32:30 PM] Amadeus Koch: Yuup
  306. [18-Nov-13 9:32:34 PM] Amadeus Koch: But this.
  307. [18-Nov-13 9:32:48 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  308. [18 November, 2013 8:35 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  309.  
  310. <<< With this complete, Sherah becomes nothing more than a sort of data-entity and infects the network systems in the laboratories in which he works
  311. [18-Nov-13 9:32:58 PM] colseed: oh
  312. [18-Nov-13 9:33:01 PM] colseed: ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
  313. [18-Nov-13 9:33:08 PM] Amadeus Koch: [18 November, 2013 9:28 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  314.  
  315. <<< [8:37 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  316.  
  317. <<< He transfers himself to some secret government site places, and launches himself as a spaceship into orbit and is not seen or heard of again for 500 years
  318. [18-Nov-13 9:33:15 PM] colseed: dammit sherah
  319. [18-Nov-13 9:33:40 PM] Amadeus Koch: So
  320. [18-Nov-13 9:33:49 PM] Amadeus Koch: [18 November, 2013 6:18 PM] Jaed "Kilin" Norberg:
  321.  
  322. <<< I want to see more games where you play as the villain.
  323. [18-Nov-13 9:33:53 PM] Amadeus Koch: [18 November, 2013 6:18 PM] Amadeus Koch:
  324.  
  325. <<< DQM kinda counts
  326. Or is that spoilers?
  327. Hmm
  328. [18-Nov-13 9:33:58 PM] colseed: heh
  329. [18-Nov-13 9:34:07 PM] colseed: is the lunacy star actually a villain though?
  330. [18-Nov-13 9:34:11 PM] colseed: or is it just sorta
  331. [18-Nov-13 9:34:12 PM] colseed: there
  332. [18-Nov-13 9:34:37 PM] Amadeus Koch: It's "there" by the time you get to it
  333. [18-Nov-13 9:34:45 PM] Amadeus Koch: As far as "being there" can be evil
  334. [18-Nov-13 9:34:46 PM] Amadeus Koch: Which
  335. [18-Nov-13 9:34:59 PM] Amadeus Koch: Given its mere presence leads to spatial and temporal rending
  336. [18-Nov-13 9:35:10 PM] Amadeus Koch: And the spontaneous disassociation of objects on the atomic level
  337. [18-Nov-13 9:35:14 PM] colseed: ah
  338. [18-Nov-13 9:35:32 PM] colseed: so villain in the sense that it's disturbing the fabric of spacetime just by existing
  339. [18-Nov-13 9:35:38 PM] Amadeus Koch: Yes.
  340. [18-Nov-13 9:36:09 PM] Amadeus Koch: I wanted a better way to represent this in gameplay than in the time-bending cards
  341. [18-Nov-13 9:36:21 PM] Amadeus Koch: But having the SIZE of bullets scale around on a sinewave
  342. [18-Nov-13 9:36:25 PM] Amadeus Koch: Might've been...
  343. [18-Nov-13 9:36:29 PM] Amadeus Koch: ....complained about
  344. [18-Nov-13 9:36:34 PM] colseed: o_______o
