WIP: Fallen Hero 2: Retribution - updated 27 april 2019 (pre-adult version)

Exactly The anger and resentment, frustration is logical That’s why I think Mara will do if she is totally betrayed and abandoned by the person she loves.

Summary

I didn’t say they were…

I said they are ‘Seen’ like that . And personally , I didn’t see anywhere where it said if there was a spark of humanity in them . As far as I can recall , they were controlled from a distance . The one we fight back in Book 1…didn’t seem to be ‘Aware’ .

My point…was to point out that even if the MC look normal and have emotions and depression and stuff . Was that society wouldn’t accept them , because of their origins . And they still be hunted still .

I didn’t say they weren’t human . I was trying to paint how they felt…well how my mc felt…how they mistrust because of their past , because they are disconnected…etc .

Ortega…is like that…thats why #teamortegaforever :kissing_heart:

I’m not sure about the rest though lol then again…it also driven by my own mistrust of them . I guess only time will tell…

I don’t agree about the regen though . I don’t think it’s just them being too long a victim . I mean it’s possible…and that kinda make it even worse…cose…what hell they have gone trough that made them feel like an empty husk right ? Brrr…don’t wanna think about it too much . But you are right when you say ‘‘Just cose you escaped hell…it doesnt mean you didnt take some of it with you…cose its there…inside…still’’ .

I also didnt say anything about argent :stuck_out_tongue: Heck…I see her more human then the rest actually …well save for Ortega…who is the most human of them all…yeah I’m blind totally when it come to her lol .

I think The Farm might be like Manticore from Dark Angel.

Growing test tube child soldiers dehumanizing them, I don’t want to go as far as implying sexual abuse because I imagine that in the eyes of the farm that be like molesting a piglet or a calf. That to The Farm Staff sexual activity with a Regene is beastiality. But growing up like that no wonder the MC is so screwed up.

yeah…

Summary

growing as test tube is enough to drive one bonker , its been done before in others games and movies . Usually , the realisation that you’been made…just shatter reality . Its all a lie…and the self identity seem to get erased…because the person doesn’t know anymore…who they are…what they are and where they belong .

that usually lead them down the spiral of revenge and self destruct…usually .

don’t recall an exemple where it turned out good though…it always end by ‘dead’ …

I wonder which update will the WIP recognize Sidestep and Anathema as Special names.

I think a big part of why the Re-Genes seem emotionless can be explained by something we see the MC do multiple times in the first game alone - disassociation. And while I’m not entirely sure how Malin will deal with their situation - because I get the feeling any truths behind the Re-Gene Project will be revealed publically at the climax of this game - I trust in their writing ability a lot and I feel like just giving up on them because they’ve been abused for too long wouldn’t mesh well with the rest of the story.

And fair enough about distrusting the rest of them, but I think Steel will surprise us a lot. He’s already revealed that he searched for the MC after being told by the government they were dead - I think he’s a lot more skeptical of what the government’s involved in than we’re aware (especially since he seems to be well-aware of Ortega’s situation wrt his modifications). Herald is very dedicated to being a Hero™, so I think there’s no way he wouldn’t realise, after the initial shock/surprise, that the MC is very much the victim of the government in this. And the public… well, you can choose to court their opinion, and I can see a situation where the popularity of both Sidestep and villain!MC becomes relevant in the public’s reaction to the truth of the Re-Gene Project.

And tbh I brought up Argent because I think she probably would understand the MC’s situation a lot more than we think. The part about “seeing sharks” in her head in the first game made me think of that scene where kid!MC pressed their face up against a tank or something in the Farm to make scary faces. Also, I know of at least one example of where a character who grew up in a test tube ended up ok - Prompto in FFXV, who also has a literal barcode embedded in his skin. And those are all characters (as far as I’m aware) who weren’t 100% aware of their circumstances from the start (like Sephiroth), whereas as far as I can tell the MC has been. If anything, the only groundbreaking realisation the MC might have (or have had) is that they deserve to be treated as a person.

Didn’t we literally see sharks in a tank during a farm flashback?

3 Likes

yeah we did . but that only happen…if you go alone in the party…

I’m pretty sure that’s a warning sign Argent might be…

Wait… What if when she switch into sharks mode she is another Psychic’s puppet? What if she’s The Farm’s Mole? What if she was the one who found out we were a stray Regene and turned us in?

I’m gonna put a big IF…

Summary

IF the regen are really…well conscient and all that . I think there is more to it then disassociation . full brainwashing it seem . Maybe even implant or chip to make sure they obey ? after all…when they are on the field…where the ‘normal’ peoples are…there must some save guard somewhere they don’t run off…or go berserk right ? .

oh yeah , I’m sure the author would smack us with the truth later…

But like I said before…its opinions…mostly at this point . I’m going with what i read…and the feeling I get .

I know Steel look for the mc , homewhever…what I distrust , is the fact he is still military . Even if he know…will he still act on what he know , knowing damn well his world won’t be the same ? or would he do something that go against everything he was raised…trained to be ? See…thats what I mean . And on that front…I’m inclined that once a military…always a military . After all…he may have empathy and care toward the mc…but would that be enough to throw everything away ? I can say yes 100% for Ortega . But Steel ? not so sure…

which make it fun…of course :stuck_out_tongue:

what if Herald goes into shock…then Totally embrace what the mc became ? OH nooo…that would be worseeeeeee…Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh! LOL

As for Lady argent , wonder if she was experimented upon too…

I’m going for a martyr playtrough you know…so…my mc is different then yours lol .

Summary

she wasn’t around during that time…

and we don’t know where she is . Also , considering how she doesn’t seem to like taking order…I think she be the last one to rat out the mc .

If anything , I think Lady argent could be the one who share something with the mc…when it come to ‘horrible back story’’ .

I don’t know what those shark are…to be honest…although everytime I think about them…feel like the answer is obvious…I just can’t put my finger on it! anyone get that feeling ???

The only thing I can think of…when I think about those shark…is Kisamé! LOL

yeah I know…doesn’t help…:joy:

If someone will betray me Is Her. The fact Mara hates her makes pretty obvious

I think Lady Argent is a more agressive Chloe of Life Is Strange …
And my MC, well since he is a telepath and is spying on the Ranger… oh dear, you don’t think my MC is a more sensible Warren right??:wink:

But just like Warren… i think my MC continue to “care” for Lady Argent in a unique way just because i love her… does it makes any sense .Lol

But Argent is as rebellious as Chloe , so Warren and Chloe a good couple ?:wink:

@Nazroth

Shark is an extinctive creature these days, because filthy humans hunt them for food… and they need our protection… so i won’t blame Argent for her inner feeling that she is a shark that being hunt and bully, Argent definitely need our hug :-):hugs:

Maybe the sharks we see are made by ourselves and our subconscious fear of them, whenever we are afraid of her and messing with her mind we see them.

I’m not sure this is why though, but it would make sense with the flashback of kid mc with sharks and lady argent’s sharks as a connection I guess.

@Eric_knight It seems you are going for an Argent route just like me, first Lilith and now Argent, we may just be some low key masochists, always going for the slightly crazy route where someone wants to kill/harm us lol.

We would know if she was controlled by someone else. When we’re in head we didn’t feel another telepath in there, so that all her. It’s most likely she was experimented on and those and her powers are the result. Probably by the Farm or someone else, which is what we have in common with her.

What if Argent was watching the battle and found us after the fall carrying us away to the Farm?

Predictions for final battle

Your team:
Wolf pack if you’ve allied with them

Rosie/Boris if you’ve got them on retainer

Ortega if you have a good relationship

Lady Argent if she’s fixated on you i.e this happens if The Farm tries to take control of her https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3x4SVEOWZM

Herald if you have a good relationship

Mortum backup if you have a good relationship with her.

The enemy team:

Steel, nice enhancements you have their steel shame if they were hacked.
Argent if her rage lust and pride aren’t strong enough
Ortega if you’re the bigger threat.
Herald if he needs to overcome his fears

Hollow Ground
The Farm
