We have had one meaningful fight as a level 3 (which was a loss), it wouldn't feel narratively satisfying if MC evolved now, it would just feel like we are rushing towards the endgame, which doesn't at all appear to be the case.
definitely way too soon to evolve imo. Also MC has to beat cole on his own level. it would just be a cop out to evolve (be a level above him) then kick his ass.We have had one meaningful fight as a level 3 (which was a loss), it wouldn't feel narratively satisfying if MC evolved now, it would just feel like we are rushing towards the endgame, which doesn't at all appear to be the case.
both of em also works. he says it's mercy killing, that's what he tells himself. hurting the mc is just a sweet ass bonus for him.I don't believe one bit that Cole tried to kill them for mercy. He was just searching ways to damage MC and brag later since he can't kill him because people stronger than him want MC alive. He only decided to "mercy kill" them when Jared said it was MC friends. Cole is the type of person that loves to bark, he loves using and beating the weak but when someone a bit stronger than him shows up he runs away but keep barking.
optional NTR in 99%+ of games means the dev rewrote a waifu into a whore on a leash.Obviously the possible NTR route and initial rejection is gonna sour her to most people who like to self insert (I don't care that she's depressed, how dare they possibly deny the main character that I am yada yada). But I'm just saying, she is objectively the best written love interest in the game.....like its not even close.
Like most of the Lover interest story goes like they have a problem>you fix their problem>they fuck you. While with Liz in the love route, you're literally changing her life as you progress.
She didn't reject MC due to finding him ugly or any physical attribute of his, but because they're both empty messes that cant "fulfill" eachother (even his height is something MC brings up to lighten the mood, she doesn't even comment about it).A second problem with liz is... her rejecting the MC when he was short, skinny, and small dicked.
I don't have a problem with that either.
It is perfectly reasonable that she didn't find you sexually attractive when you were a 3/10 and she was a 10/10.
now that you are tall, swole, and hung she is sexually attracted to you.
Makes sense.
You still don't get her character. She is quite detached from reality and sexuality, as she suffers from extreme apathy. She doesn't think anyone attractive in the conventional sense, because the only time you hear she actually liked something was MC Eyes, Either way, she instead finds pleasure in extremes via chemical alteration in the NTR path or pain via big dick i guess, but she doesn't care about the sex either, as she goes with the flow and just lets things happen because she frankly doesn't care. She could have given "sex" to MC when he was young any time he asked, if MC asked before that confession. The problem lies that MC wanted her love and not just sex, she didn't want to do dirty to her Best Friend.optional NTR in 99%+ of games means the dev rewrote a waifu into a whore on a leash.
If you ever falter in keeping her on a short leash, she will cuck you.
In this game the NTR route is handled very differently.
She literally asks you to come ward off this person who is trying to coerce her into sex (by threatening her sister).
And you have to first agree, and then actively decide that instead of doing as you promised, you are going to backstab her and peep. This is 100% on you. She is not the whore on a leash, you are the cuck who pushed her to it.
And then as a cherry on top, you end up killing him and his buddies after he kidnaps her.
I hate it mind you. But I don't hate the character or the game.
Because this was done intelligently, without ruining her via the "whore on a leash" issue.

But then there is a third issue with Liz...
you also get told about her huge body count.
That... is pretty unappealing. Just feels gross.
Very unrealistically, she reached her "ready to settle down" stage at age 20 instead of age 40.
Which... does make it better. But it is still an issue.
Personally, with Liz, I think only issue 3 is really a problem.
I think MC will evolve given that the 4th evolution is not that big of a deal and just a big power-up. He can stay there all the time he needs until he comprehends his powers really well and evolves to level 5, and then, I guess in the late story, he will transcend level 5 given that the enemies MC is likely to confront later are on another scale altogether.Each mc evolution followed a certain pattern with 4 major fights
1- a first confrontation with the opponent that would later trigger the evolution, which mc didn't win (defeat against Klauss and draw against Deryl)
2- an opponent of a similar level to mc who poses a direct threat to the lives of his friends (Kenny and Jake)
3- an opponent more powerful than mc but with whom he has a good matchup (Danica and Valravn)
4- the rematch against the opponent mc couldn't beat with a win and his evolution
if you look at it this way, Cole fits more into the 2nd category because his power is compared to Met, who himself was able to matchup against Evander (whom Met suspects didn't give his all), and when Mc confronted Cole after his evolution, the 3rd and 4th Apostle were already confident that Mc could beat him.
Of course we have to take in acount that mc was still freshly evolved but he is clearly progressing faster than Cole and he also has is training with Syla so they should be relatively close (especialy since Cole got himself a new weapon ).
So with that + the fact that it evolved not so long ago , mc evolving seem unlikely and it would be more likely to happen during a rematch against the moon's twin.
Now why could it be possible for mc to Evolve during this fight even with all i said above.
1- WW doesn't have to follow this pattern indefinitely, and a faster evolution may also serve the interests of the story.
2- nothing prevents superhumans to going through successive evolution even if it's not the norm (Danica is a perfect example of this, as is Henri), so nothing prevent it for mc.
3-Xanthe "There are various methods. Overexposure to monster material, overuse of power, heavy trauma both physical and mental, and of course, my serum, which is an extension of the first method."
and for sure what happened to Liz (and even the state Amber's in and which mc didnt see yet could very well work and could be the trigger for that trauma)
So even if i'm not 100% convinced, it's still a possibility.
She's easy because she feels like she's worthless and she doesn't really deserve to be in a relationship, not because she's a hoe. It's shown pretty well she doesn't really enjoy sex unless it's a horsecock. Only reason she allows the ntr to happen was to secure her sisters future. The moment she found out about their true plans, she went to kill all of em. And then you actually kill all of em. And now the only reason it continues to happen is because you wanted it to happen.optional NTR in 99%+ of games means the dev rewrote a waifu into a whore on a leash.

No, I get that.You still don't get her character. She is quite detached from reality and sexuality, as she suffers from extreme apathy.
ehhh... no. she was hooking up with all the chads in highschool while telling him "sorry sweetie I am a mess. go after a better girl".She didn't reject MC due to finding him ugly or any physical attribute of his, but because they're both empty messes that cant "fulfill" eachother (even his height is something MC brings up to light the mood, she doesn't even comment about it).
Try to reverse the sexes here.she instead finds pleasure in extremes via chemical alteration in the NTR path or pain via big dick i guess, but she doesn't care about the sex either
i think you dreamed it then, because it never was about attractiveness.ehhh... no. she was hooking up with all the chads in highschool while telling him "sorry sweetie I am a mess. go after a better girl".
also, I very distinctly remember her explicitly stating the attractiveness issue (she wasn't then, she is now) was a thing when I played through her route. maybe I dreamed it, but this is what I recall.
She really didn't. In Highschool MC didn't confess until the prom night (you can see it during the investigation on Ella's school), and, after MC ignored her and Amber for months, they meet again and she compliments his appearance and jokes saying "maybe if you looked like that when you asked me out, i would've said yes" which we (again, after seeing the confession) know she's joking with him.ehhh... no. she was hooking up with all the chads in highschool while telling him "sorry sweetie I am a mess. go after a better girl".
also, I very distinctly remember her explicitly stating the attractiveness issue (she wasn't then, she is now) was a thing when I played through her route. maybe I dreamed it, but this is what I recall.
The optional ntr is probably like 90% of the reason most people hate her. First it was "she is a gold digger" and "she rejected you for being a midget" which got promptly btfod in the flash back confession scene and the only thing that's left for people to justify their irrational insecurity now is the optional NTR.No, I get that.
She is detached from reality, sexuality, and hasYou must be registered to see the links
I just don't think it is relevant to anything I said.
You seem to think that her having this mental disorder somehow... what? makes NTR attractive to people who hate NTR?
That said, I really should have mentioned it as
"issue number 4 why some people find her unattractive. Mental disorder and tons of baggage"
I just didn't want to rag on her too much and try to nitpick every single problem with her.
My main point was not really to nitpick her problems, but to say that I disagree with the statement why "people hate her because of the optional NTR"
As a NTR hater, I don't hate her because of the optional NTR.
ehhh... no. she was hooking up with all the chads in highschool while telling him "sorry sweetie I am a mess. go after a better girl".
also, I very distinctly remember her explicitly stating the attractiveness issue (she wasn't then, she is now) was a thing when I played through her route. maybe I dreamed it, but this is what I recall.
Well... can we get some people who hate her to chime in on this?The optional ntr is probably like 90% of the reason most people hate her
So you are psychoanalyzing people in an attempt to villify them for not finding something attractive.First it was "she is a gold digger" and "she rejected you for "being a midget" which got promptly btfod in the flash back confession scene and the only thing that's left for people to justify their irrational insecurity now is the optional NTR.

I agree that Ella is one of the best girls (she's gaslighting me, i'm sure of it, but after that "always" i'm too attached to careLike, I think Ella is best girl. But a lot of people hate her. Back in the day they ranted about how she "murdered a classroom full of children".
This was proven to be false (it was not her, it was god possessing her. and she literally cut herself into pieces to forcibly stop the possession before it could kill her best friend too). But being proven to have been wrong about something doesn't suddenly erase months to years of accumulated distaste for a character.
None of them ever admitted they were wrong about her all along.
I am talking about the experience I've accumulated from talking to people who hate Liz. I remember one guy literally tried to say the Liz is scum for going along with the MCs own joke that he was short which had made MC insecure about his own height.Well... can we get some people who hate her to chime in on this?
As I said, I personally am an NTR hater, and I do not hate Liz. and aren't bothered by the NTR route in this game.
I hate a lot of other characters in other games with optional NTR paths, because it makes them whore on a leash who will cuck you the moment you loosen the leash. I don't hate Liz because that isn't her.
So you are psychoanalyzing people in an attempt to villify them for not finding something attractive.
While completely ignoring reasons mentioned by people on why they would find her unattractive.
Also, even if dev eventually adds a flash back to fix a character flaw, a lot of people still have the dislike impression from before the flashback existed.
Like, I think Ella is best girl. But a lot of people hate her. Back in the day they ranted about how she "murdered a classroom full of children".
This was proven to be false (it was not her, it was god possessing her. and she literally cut herself into pieces to forcibly stop the possession before it could kill her best friend too). But being proven to have been wrong about something doesn't suddenly erase months to years of accumulated distaste for a character.
None of them ever admitted they were wrong about her all along.
However, I am not going to start psychoanalyzing them and claiming that they hate her for completely different and unrelated reasons.
Ella and liz are pretty damn similar with the exception of liz's apathy and ella's powers.Like, I think Ella is best girl. But a lot of people hate her.
