Jesus how long until next update? I'm fucking tired of coming across the phrases "I think" "maybe" "he is" "she isn't" while scrolling down ultra fast looking for update info and skipping those spam walls...

I think, maybe it's soon.

He said something but since I don't know who is the other person you're talking about, she isn't there I guess.

So, soon.

You're welcome.

Wait, how did Liz not look good in the flashback? She literally took a punch for the MC, and I don't remember her doing anything bad.


As someone who is into emotional distance myself, I prefer Liz because she actually likes the MC and she clearly cares a lot about the people close to her.
To put it another way, Tiffany is ice cold emotional distance and Liz is lukewarm emotional distance.
Just because someone is into a certain thing doesn't mean they want it taken to the utmost extreme (especially if they're directly involved and not just a spectator). Some people like a little pain (being slapped), but not a lot of pain (being whipped).

I think the problem with a lot of your arguments is that your trying to argue it as if people just don't see what your seeing and just don't accept that people can see the exact same thing and not simply come to the same conclusion.

I disliked the twins being friends with his bully, either make him stop or don't be friends with one of them, you can make all the reasoning you like, I just thought it sucked, I think it would have worked so much better if the girls simply weren't in the picture then. Just say they meet after the bullying incident, changing this won't affect anything that matters and would improve the flow of the MC and Deryl's relationship.

You can like emotional distance, but they haven't shown that with the MC. Amber was the designated first crush from the beginning and as the story progressed, she got eclipsed by better written female characters and the closest thing we've gotten to try and explain why he liked her was something about them being similar, which isn't even true, the MC is often emotional, expressive and driven.

Oof... Im my opinion he should take one update only for the art. Especially after closing this saga. Make the 1.0 the art update.

...Do you mean Liz? Cause Liz was the first crush.

What bullying?

I never perceived the MC to be a victim, they both were asshats provoking each other and looking to fight each other at every opportunity. I think youre looking at this through a weird harem lens

the mc is often emotional, expressive and driven?!?! which avn are you playing?

Its the most stoic and "shrugging" mc i ever saw which makes him so fun lol

Are you serious, everyone acknowledges that Deryl was being an aggressive shit back then, even Deryl himself, that he fought back doesn't mean it wasn't Deryl clearly in the wrong. Also when you make odd deflection of harem lens, make a point, I could say that you're being defensive of Liz because you see her as a girl in your harem.

More stoic than average, but compared with Liz he's very expressive, I find his surprised reaction amusing, because it looks funny and yes, emotional and driven, we read his inner monologue, we know how often he gets angry, scarred, turned on, and absolutely driven, even in the early game the problem with the MC was that he only had a drive for things he was interested in and he wasn't interested in school, he has a reputation for being tenacious which was not only made clear in the flashback.

Liz has been upfront about being numb and passionless about almost anything with the sole exception being Amber, which has been great for the Twin arc, but made for a poor love interest.

...Do you mean Liz? Cause Liz was the first crush.

Yes.

Uh i wasnt even aware you guys are talking about Liz but mc is definitely not innocent in the conflict with deryl and im unable to comprehend how you dont consider the mc as a kind of stoic and apathetic guy, thats kinda his whole vibe, hes simply not very empathetic lol

but if i rememer it right you can influence it with your choices in the flashback, so maybe you just took the bitch choices, i dont know

Yes he has emotions at times but emotional or particualry angry considering what he experiences is really the last thing i woud characterize him with lol

that was just my patricipation to the discussion, i dont really care if you consider liz a good LI or not, youre free to feel about that however you want. I think shes a unique and fun LI tho even if shes not the best

Since the main character seems to be a combination of Alex Mercer (prototype), and Jackie Estacado (The Darkness), I decided to name him Jack Mercer.

For the superhero name, i just chose something edgy and goth, didnt put much thought into it. I chose Darklight.

What are the Hero/Vigilante names you guys and gals chose?? Im curious!

For the name, I name all my MCs with my name and I didn't know what kind of game it will be since it was set in university, so I named him Max.

For his superhero name I honestly didn't have an idea until I thought about it and I was like; "He looks likes a living skull", so I choose The Skull.

I always take "Sylar" from the tv series heroes, eating peoples brains to get new abilitys kinda fits our mc (yeah yeah sylar didnt reeeeaaaally do that)

Edit: and its fun as it feels like a memorial to the mcs mom

If I need to use a name it's usually Theone, if I need a full name Theone Indeed. The hero name I picked for this was Only.

Yeah, that is a problem. I wish people, like you, would be more clear about what they're saying. Then I would know if someone is seeing the same thing I am and just not coming to the same conclusion.

I disliked the twins being friends with his bully, either make him stop or don't be friends with one of them, you can make all the reasoning you like, I just thought it sucked, I think it would have worked so much better if the girls simply weren't in the picture then. Just say they meet after the bullying incident, changing this won't affect anything that matters and would improve the flow of the MC and Deryl's relationship.

MC certainly got the worst of it, but they were both provoking each other. MC literally started the feud IIRC by scaring off the girl Deryl was having sex with, and then informing Amber about his infidelity(?). If that was bullying, then it was mutual bullying, which is why Liz and Amber didn't pick sides. It wasn't entirely clear who was in the wrong.

You can like emotional distance, but they haven't shown that with the MC.
Amber was the designated first crush from the beginning and as the story progressed, she got eclipsed by better written female characters and the closest thing we've gotten to try and explain why he liked her was something about them being similar, which isn't even true, the MC is often emotional, expressive and driven.

My point was that even if you like emotional distance, you might still prefer Liz over Tiffany, since you didn't seem to think that made sense.
And MC is more like Liz than he is other people. I think part of Liz's character development is, if she hasn't already (I don't remember if she's displayed any signs of that), going to be about becoming driven to get stronger, not just for Amber but because she enjoys fighting and growing. Just like the MC.

One moment please, are you seriously trying to call that bullying? Informing someone that they're being cheated on isn't bullying, it doesn't matter what the situation behind it is or the motivation behind it, if it's actually happening it really doesn't matter. It's not a question of who was in the wrong, Deryl was being a dick the entire time, cheated on his girlfriend and then took it out on the MC when shit fell apart due to his own actions. I really cannot understand how you could possibly think it was mutual in any way, is it because the MC fought back and didn't just take it?

I didn't know school principals browsed porn forums in their spare time.

Yeah, that is a problem. I wish people, like you, would be more clear about what they're saying. Then I would know if someone is seeing the same thing I am and just not coming to the same conclusion.

If you are in a crowd of people telling you the same thing and you still think you're not the problem... you need to re-evaluate.

The MC didn't actively fight back until the brutal beating Deryl gave him in front of the school body where he removed his bandages. Every perceived slight against Deryl prior was an accident and not at all targeted. Even telling Amber about the infidelity was a slip of the tongue in anger. After the bandaged removal incident, the MC didn't back down. Eye for an Eye. As for the twins... Liz as always didn't care too much and Amber felt too guilty about abandoning Deryl in his time of pain... Until it became too much for both of them. I honestly thought the twins' inaction then actions were pretty realistically human.

My point was that even if you like emotional distance, you might still prefer Liz over Tiffany, since you didn't seem to think that made sense.

Just like the MC.

This...I actually agree with mostly. Prior to him being turned he was a lot more like Liz (Lazy, apathetic, etc.). Liz herself mentioned this several times. Becoming SH and all the events in his life have changed him to be more outgoing/emotional. As for Liz herself, she was changing ever so slightly to want a boyfriend. She also wanted to become superhuman so she wouldn't be a burden on her friends. And she's definitely found something to strive for with the twins' most recent development. Like you said, I look forward to her growing because she finally found something worth doing.

Guyver. It's from an old manga, Bio-Booster Armor Guyver, where a young man finds himself bonded with a symbiotic suit of living armor. It was just the first thing that came to mind when asked for a name while wearing living armor, even if the MC's armor is not much like the Guyver unit. Over time I've felt it's become pretty appropriate, though. In the manga, the Guyver was created by aliens trying to turn humans into living weapons, which they abandoned after it turned out the humans always rebelled. "Guyver" is even revealed to be a word in their language meaning "out of control". I feel that works well for this story about being given power by creatures from another world and using it to fight against them.

I always name my guy Judgement.

My superhero name is "No-Thing".

I tried to play it off like, the crowd asked "whats your superhero name?", MC replied "nothing" and people misheard it as The No-Thing. And I feel like the name fits because MC technically doesn't have a set shape or body, they're nothing (and everything)

I get lots of appropriately edgy lines like "I am No-Thing," or "I love No-Thing" too.

(plus man-thing vibes, mmm eldritch tentacle monsters)
