Keeper of Day and Night (Update Post 1932)

If you think Lysander is bad,then I can’t imagine what you will say about Julian who’s using compulsion on his wife frequently and is one quite directly responsible for the project on his own child and leave the MC behind after faking his own death (and more than possibly,causing his wife’s death too) though I’m not fond of this one,I’m just saying. From all three supernatural parents potential of the MC,Roxana is manipulative and just regards mc as usable tool,Lysander is cowardly and need to grow more balls and spine,Julian is pure evil (in my mind). Though I agree with some of your dislike of him,i still think Roxana and Julian are much worse, imo.

At least Lysander give me that phoenix ashes for free to save my friend,as long as I can get his nearly endless pocket money and he’s not trying to control him,my MC is good and cool with him.

Sorry for the wall of text,lol. I have to say this,as I already following this thread for so long and never replying or commenting,cheers :smiley:

Strange for a CEO, they’re usually overconfident to a fault. Anyway, yes, that would be good character development for him, but it would come too late to salvage his relationship with my mc, his last best chance was during that first year when the mc was still regarded as unimportant and could have used a mentor figure outside of the kids his own age. Now with the keeper thing they all want a part of him and he trusts none of them and Lysander least of all as he financed the clandestine experiments that created him and in the present day has no qualms about using Altair, aka my mc’s cute incubus boyfriend as a guinea pig.
So, again, as my mc sees it his sperm donor, whenever he was present was always a malign influence on his life, never a positive one.

At little personal cost to him, it’s not exactly asking him to sacrifice much and there are better ways to obtain the stuff anyway.

No, he doesn’t do that, nor does he offer, that is made very clear in the part in the old public beta, don’t know if the current demo goes up to that point that he never did support the mc financially up to that point. And after that point…well the mc starts getting paid real money for the first time in their lives in any case and furthermore by that point the narrative has already established that the mc just can’t have nice things. So while almost eveyrbody else can look stylish if they want my mc’s choices are still dollar store bum style or knockoff Leon.
The one time we still have time to shop in the second game is when the mc is still very much lacking money…and I doubt the third game will give us (m)any opportunities to buy nice stuff for the mc.

Furthermore my mc is not interested in taking bribes or doing guinea pig or pr jobs for PMI. There’s really nothing Lysander has to offer my mc at this point. And again he is not offering anything really.

Should the mc in the third book find themselves in need of funds to save the world (as opposed to doing nice things for themselves) Lysander would still be last in my mc’s list of potential donors that would go something like this: Seraphina, Alty’s parents (even if Alty’s dad personally dislikes him), Leon’s dad, Secretary Monroe, Secretaries Patil and Celosia (the magical government), cyber-begging and only then would Lysander even enter into the picture.

He is, from the magical experiments to his new potion under development he is very much trying to control keepers, and guess what the mc is. In both cases the mc looks to be the prime subject to have to deal with the negative consequences. :unamused:

But that may be professional, but then none of the currently alive parents is really trying to control the mc’s personal life at this point. Maybe Roxana would have, if she were still alive, but we do not know that for certain.
None of the others seem interested in doing so at this point in the mc’s life Isabella and Lucas are fairly typical parents of college age kids, meaning they may have been more involved during high school but pretty much let us have free rein now. Lysander and Julian actually seem to share one characteristic as far as I can see they are both completely indifferent and largely uninterested in the mc’s personal life beyond the keeper thing.

A fair point,I may be quite biased because my mc is a chaotic rebel who would partake in most things as long as the pay is good and it’s not a sure death sentence e.g I have to find that experimental potion part,I never seen that one.

I can agree to that a little,but I still see Lysander as the lesser of the two evil in this case. And again,this maybe because I am biased toward Lysander because he’s the first predetermined supernatural parent I seen and the only one alive (before I know Julian) and I can’t seems to play a hating MC for long,except if it’s against the higher up of Magi who after dragging the mc into this,still want a piece of them. So if pretending to be complacent can get him some benefits,he will tolerate Lysander and maybe accept him openly at some point,though that still need to be seen.

And about funding,I agree that the mc don’t need to ask or begging him,as our suitemates seems to be more than willing to cover for us,especially Astrid or Leon,and my MC didn’t get shortage of money because his overly protective girlfriend (Astrid,cough-cough) would pay most things for him,sad we haven’t get the chance for more shopping.

It’s Altair’s sub-plot and most of it used to be in the public beta, either you didn’t do Altair’s path or you missed the public beta as it seems the new demo doesn’t go that far in.

Only for necessities and maybe saving the world funds, not for nice stuff for the mc, which the mc cannot have anyway. :disappointed:

Are usually go with the two living parents, so technically, your aunt and uncle. Though, my MC still got some as parents, if nothing else, because your aunt gets the Basha werewolf over the head with a flashlight for you, and if that isn’t mother of the year? I don’t know what is. :slight_smile:

So can we all agree that Ariana and Michael are the most functional pair of parent out of the bunch? Especially Michael, he is literally unrelated to MC before the incident and then decides to marry Ariana so that MC can have a ‘normal’ family. He wasn’t even in love with Ariana yet at that time.

Michael is indeed the best father in the game. Lucas is pretty good too, but to be honest I always got the vibe that if Roxana was still alive he’d pick her over MC any day. I guess we kind of see that too, in that flashback scene where she yells at a baby MC for crying and I don’t think he does anything about it (though that might have been because that’s where the flashback cut off, I don’t remember exactly). Lysander is just absent for like 90% of MC’s life so he doesn’t even count as a real father imo.

Well to be fair he is kinda powerless in that situation, whatever he can do will only worsen things( I can already picture Roxana replacing him if he pisses her of and get away with a slap to the wrist…).
Also Julian is hands down the worst dad.

Also, that was years ago. It’s possible (maybe even likely) that after years of forming a bond with his child (provided you choose to have a good relationship with him), he would in the present day stand up for them against Roxana.

Will the “poison his treatment” stick or at least do something? I recall it not doing anything ultimately for some reason in the demo.

Pretty sure it’s not going to actually kill him or anything. There may be consequences for it down the road, but as far as I know, it doesn’t really do anything right now.

Iirc if you don’t do it right for whatever reasons, it will have a bit of an impact (subtle change in narrative which indicate setbacks in treatment), nothing major or plot changing…yet.

Y’ALL I’M SO HYPED!!!

If this turns out to be an April’s fools prank I’m gonna scream

This is the most awesome news I could have hoped for! Congratulations on the release! I really wasn’t sure when to expect the release, I’ve been keeping away from the demo to keep myself fresh for the full game and this is great news. Only one cloudy spot in my mind though, the release date might not be a prank but it’s certainly played a cruel trick on my free time next month. Kingdom Hearts comes to PC the day before Keeper releases so I’ll have to split my time between binging that nostalgia rollercoaster and the epicness of this sequel. April cannot come fast enough! Congratulations again, and thanks for making my day!
