Oooooh! Too curious not to have a look at this. Going to try and actually be useful:
“You’ve gotten stranger,” you reply, striking as she parries, moving with you in a way you haven’t experienced since fighting Ortega. There’s a feeling there that it takes a moment for you to recognize.
“You’ve certainly gotten stranger.” There’s a feeling there, in that moment between you that it takes a moment for you to recognize. Is… she flirting with you?
Repeating dialogue.
“Everything went according to plan,” you say, which is technically not a lie. You had to get off the bridge somehow, and Lady Argent was not a part of the plan, so she doesn’t count. A stern glare makes sure you are not questioned further.
“Good news, boss.” She looks happy that this is over, the relief is palpable, even if she doesn’t quite believe you.
“Everything went according to plan,” you say, flexing and unflexing your hand. Lady Argent was not a part of the plan, but you dealt with her quickly enough.
“Good news, boss.” She looks happy that this is over, the relief is palpable.
More repeating dialogue.
You’d like to deny it, but you should be honest with yourself. You wish you didn’t have feelings for her, that would make things a lot easier. You’ve had months, months in which you could have worked on severing your ties, drifting away again. You could have pretended to hate him, or just that you didn’t want anything to do with her and her world again.
Pronoun error.
Especially Ortega’s face as her suit started to fall apart after he reached for a dissolving Elyise. An instinctual act. To help. She was screaming.
And then he was.
And then you were.
Pronoun error.
I also noticed that selecting Vengeance for motivation caused the motivation-dependent text to come up blank.
I’ll push Ortega to make a choice between us. I need to know how she feels.
Is there any way to actually unlock this choice in this build, or is it impossible due to missing character generator options? I’ve tried several different combinations but none have worked.
(On a sidenote, I assume this…
The character generator do NOT contain all character variations. A lot of things won’t matter yet and haven’t been added. You can also make character combinations you could not get in book one, that is also not important
…means that it’s known and intentional that there are missing options in the character generation when it comes to the relationship between Ortega and MC as well as Ortega and Puppet? Just want to make sure I’ve understood right.)
Another question: Is the Heartbreak scar randomized here? I noticed some dialogue variations that seemed like they were tying back to the outcome of the Heartbreak Incident, but maybe I’m wrong. Primarily noticed it during convo with Anathema and Ortega.
“We were.” You look directly at her. “Not anymore. I lost that part of me. Sacrificed it. There’s nothing left.” It sounds like the truth, but she looks doubtful. “I’m alone in this.”
vs
“They’ll try to talk me out of it. Besides, it’s gone too far.” You look away, finally. “I’m seeing this through to the end. No matter what I need to do to get there.”
vs
“They won’t understand. They have lives. Futures. I don’t.” You look away, finally. “But I’ll make one, by force if necessary.”
and
“You don’t get it,” you say with another sigh, burying your face in your hands. A moment of respite from the glaring sun. From looking at her. Because shedoesn’t get it. It’s not about protecting. It’s about destroying. Her. Everything she’s worked for. Everything.
