I hate Silic, too much. I usually play as evil as I can. But a subtle charming evil. Not stupid Evil, blunt crappy evilness as Silic. So no My Mara won’t help Silic. My Mara will be a great Talent in entertainment industry. She would be a Diva. Money for Mara!!!

I think you will be a very good friend with Lollipop then.

Mine shall work with Ms Barbas, it doesn’t matter what he will do.

Yeah I love that scene so much, not sure whether to laugh or cringe!

Planned is control you’re correct(my mistake). But its more structured, higher placed jumps. And Luger mentions he ‘should’ teach you parkour. If my memory is correct.
Instinctual is Agility, but is a jungle based movement system which is what inspired parkour. A french guy was enamored with how these people were moving through the thick jungle so quickly and efficiently so he started developing something along those lines.
Speed is a track star straight up:)

Other note
Made a few fixes as pointed out and updated the ‘stats’ section with the necessary fixes and finishing out the current character profiles. Along with a few more paragraphs. Should have this chapter capped off before morning. So feel free to wait a lil longer before taking a look.

Found a new First song.

I’d like to imagine first simply taking a job at McDonald’s or something along those lines. It’d be like having the hulk be an office worker.

So now I actually see some use in control, breaking Empathy would be very very bad.

Oh no, we have to worry about insurance? Buts who’s gonna give a policy to a Ferocious Indestructible Riot Starting Terrorist?

My go-to video for why control is so important for insanely strong people will always be the Deus Ex: Human Revolution cinematic trailer. It’s easy to forget, when people create insanely strong characters, that everyone and everything is like a flower - Delicate and EXTREMELY easy to crush.

Everything makes noise when broken; even mimes.

Yes, it was ‘should’. :slightly_smiling: I was just worried what I ended up choosing, though planned approach appeals to me anyway regardless how it looks.

And update is always good news!

[spoiler]I knew Ten was going to be great! :grin: Tempted to go with ‘smart-ass’ trait for the main playthrough. Though reaction to ‘optimist’ was funny in its own way, even if he didn’t seem to happy about it. Why is it so hard to choose? :sob:

And I’m not sure if it’s too early to point anything out? But if you decide to answer first:

'“Happy you decided to trust us so I suppose it’s your turn.” Vyde insists. The comment itself was an odd term but all considered it was rather ‘apt’. Vaihl makes with a lilting chuckle “Well how else do we describe someone with your powers?”

I think this line is missing:
Ms. Barbas starts “What does a skinny little superhuman like yourself want to know?”

ok I’ve been playing this one for afew weeks now and I have to say that this is looking like a promising start to a cool universe.I enjoy how you set up interactions based on character choices prankster brat and the good one and also on the body type.my first ven is a brat who grew up huge and fast and really doesn’t like being told what to do and doesn’t have a problem with showing the difference in both size and strength compared to others better to just leave him alone with his books

two things that has bugged me for awhile is the fact that control doesn’t help you in the plane at all but both of the other movements do offensively but even if you don’t attack you’re never fast enough to get out of the plane.

Thanks I’m really trying to make these choices alter the ‘feel’ of the story as much as possible for as long as possible, these traits ‘stacking’ and coming into play as the story goes. And they also work in conjunction. Say you were a brat and then a smart-ass, that means you’re ‘actions’ are usually of a bratty selfish nature while your interactions with people are generally sarcastic. And later ‘upgrades’ will work the same way.

In that scene its nothing to do with the stats, its the method of your movestyle. Planned movestyle means you think through your actions, using planned actions as opposed to just ‘going for it’.

That being said I may have forgot a chunk of code that’s currently invisible regarding the morality of ‘killing’ I’ll be unlocking that today. SO that’s a whoops! on my part.

As for the plane All said an done you’re not meant to get off the plane, I have my reasons but perhaps I should elaborate more within the story itself.

  • who in their right mind jumps out of a plane when they don’t know where they are?
  • then consider that First can’t swim and in the distance out of the back door all they see is water. I know I haven’t elaborated this quite yet BUT that is another thing I’m working on integrating into the first section.

And thanks for the feedback @Alwayswandering its appreciated.

Wait a minute…
If first somehow dislocated something, and it had to be reset, would first just be screwed?
