#Project Moon Games: Lobcorp, Ruina, Etc.
1 messages · Page 23 of 1
I assume we're getting the apprentices like Lunatic says
I can insta shard them atleast since i have 400 shards each for them hehe
GIVE ME MIDDLE TO BE BIG BAD BROTHER RODION AND MY LIFE IS YOURS
Meanwhile, index faust has the faustcord reject her but unable to disconnect her
A prescript mentions the faustcord
ahh hmhm
Index faust also shows her own interpretation of what the prescripts are and are doing
Claiming they are the way to knowledge, abd even if they aren't exactly the will of the city, they will help her understand it
And sees a recent prescript as a way to teach her how to see beyond the surface to truly understand them
wondering if we get more ||unique charge (ring) ids like albina. would be sick||
answer is prob tho
Surprise charge season
@cloud wadi potential Ruina spoils ||Someine jn another server made an interesting comparison: the Spider House fights likenthe Library||
||I.e: they cheat like a mofo||
yeah
True
they ||invite people into a fight that's 1000% favorable to them and kill them||
||They only start fights in their favor||
||They lure you with what or who you want||
||I swear if they give Rolex a rendition of gone angels||
Look gorgeous....
...it would be very fucking funny
Interesting
||House of spiders gonna be a fucked up place that heavily favors them
And the bus crew will probably need to do something to turn the tables||
Dante is not allowed to know where ||LC HQ|| is
||I'm.wondering how intentional that conmection is and along that line, if Ryoshu. . . .is the mirror to angela in this case||
that, or it literally cannot be pinpointed
Woe
Courage to protect upon ye
||like maybe wreck the place||
okay how the fuck do I deal with judgement bird
Ruina spoils ||Like, the vibe i'm getting is that Index father has concocted this whole thing as a revenge scheme to get back at Ryoshu for whatever she did to him along eith burbing his face,and that along that root,||
yes
Like.genuinely
fuck my stupid baka life bro
...managment, huh
I still haven't finished Lob Corp
got to day 35 before I had enough of those stupid death sensitive abnos
Imagine MFE but if u fucl up.the karma,u id insta dies
Dw
I finished all of LoR
ah, gotcha
okay so
it appears
that I simply do not have the right team for this and must adjust
i need to maximize my skills that can clash well at 3 coins or else I die and can do nothing
and I also automatically lose if more than 3 turns pass unless I keep sacrificing people
Yeah paused playing ruina cause rearranging builds is too complicated for my brain atm
I still need to get back to advancing
So eager for xiao, index, thumb, r corp
yeah okay I'm not doing this right now
L.M.A.O
I genuinely don't know how I'm meant to manage it
if I ever lose a clash it immediately gets out of hand
I don't have enough dice to be able to effectively manage it because they all go to clashing or else I die
try putting all the Sin on a single librarian
you can target your own units
...whiiich you probably already knew
Very funny once you get into the stride of mechanics
|| I am getting a very foreboding vibe from the convo where he talked about how painful burning as a method of killing is and well....ryo burning his face and also what happens in Hellscreen that involves burning..||
aaand you know
this being the Burn Season
What... what else could it possibly be?
I mean I dont think this will be like focused on one status. The first two ids already kinda showed it
Hell Screen climax revolves around burning somebdoy to death
burning being mention during the cutscenes
I thought those were only there to represent the themes / people it will involve
like an
Appitizer
-# Sisyphus prime
From my perspective it's more probable that it's just a general Five Fingers season with all their associated statuses and no particular focus
Bleed season started wirh rupture units
||Not to mention . . . who is saru||
also the ||outis udjat theory is like officially dead right or are there people thinking the argo unit is or was part of udjat||
I am, that's why not having enough dice is making this hell for me
Oh, right, dice as in movement, not dice as in dice on pages
I thought that was Rollex
Oh!!
Actually!!
I think it might be the ||Ring Nursefather||
since she ||remembered that name|| when she held one of those ||spirals||
i think those are index weapons, not.ring
||Doubt it as it's an allusion to the monkey that defends Yoshidie's daughter from SA||
||Specificallt, defends her from.the Lord||
Right, I completely forgor about monkey yoshihide in Hellscreen
so who from the canto do we think we're getting an ID for first
one of the apprentices? another LCA?
apprentice for sure
tremburn triple status finally realized
the ||Thumb|| did get a bit of love last season
and we don't really have a lot of ||Pinky|| IDs
one, actually
so...
one pure, and I mean, pure Poise ID
oh, or finally another Ring one
Likely the pinky star's weapon
I vouch for the Ring ||Disciple||!
yes that was pretty much confirmed right?
he seems a little too high caliber, possibly? at the same time he also does seem like a really good basis for one
Since she taught about it
actually no thinking more
We got the godsdamned Capo from the Thumb as an ID
I feel like that's high caliber enough
no that was|| indexfather wasnt it? It was the same blue||. Or am i completely mistaken
yeah, Caposault
But, again, we already have some ||Thumb|| IDs
so my bet lies on... on... what was her name
The ||Iron Maiden|| one
Albina
I am arguing with someone that takes ||moses knowing about the argos unit has hundo percent proof that she was an udjat xd||
Albina and Ren would be my first guess for the next duo of IDs
I thought it wasn't ||Udjat||, but more just
whatever the fuck the ||Smoke War units|| were called
I mean
||Moses|| literally says something about the acrid stench of ||Smoke||
She looks so... so...
ye thats what i am saying aswell
||Cartoon|| style
Why yes
The Egyptian organization surely had Greek hero org under them
History check failed
I am super interested in that ||seemingly morphing weapon indexfather has||
I'm interested in fucking everything dropped bro
Udjats are high quality agents under the powerful dias, who participated in the smoke war
Of course they know about other groups in the war
I mean actually
liek which ones ||did hohenheim think about when he said that||
Yea no it’s completely viable for the Trojan war to be Udjat related
Ptolemaic dynasty and all
ye
I just do think with what we learned know its speaks against outis udjat more then it agrees with
Hell, moses followers may have been slaughtered in the horse operation, when they rebelled
||I am just hype for limbus jason, atalanta and heracles||
Caught up as collateral
WE GOTTA GET EM
To be quite honest it’s very likely
The Udjat are a completely anonymous organization from the outside
Knowing units within implies having been on the inside
Reminds me of the Spears that Hana has
God hand in heralkles
also with Moses ||just directly asking Outis as to the comparison, I feel like they have to know each other||
||ye what is me tripping up about that then is that moses clearly knows outis by face and unit but not the other way around||
||outis doesn't recognize her, and is shocked at what she knows||
||My team for that part was essentially "tremor good stuff" Thumbsault, Umasang, Awlgregor and Nryoshu||
that's what's tripping me up the most
I did ringsang for flavour
||Like, moses likely knows outis due to being a person of interest in the war||
I read "umasang" and fgucking
Umapyoi started playing in my head
||rather than being in the same organization||
I need to see Ryoshu hit some hype moments and aura in parts 2 and 3
https://cuba-l1bre.tumblr.com/post/804391189270904832/the-holy-one-don-quixote-he-loved-me-just-like
Silent hill, heather mason don quixote
||I’m more leaning this direction personally||
I mean
her ||Fathers|| clearly had some time in the spotlight
...I'm looking at you, Rollex
but yes
I'm ngl Valencia got me and my friends fraudposting 3 minutes in
||super curious about her eye||
I THINK
that it is a ||Relic|| excavated from the ||Ruins||
||Vergilius got her on the ropes while using a big fat fucking 0 Mang, no E.G.O, trying to avoid hurting Charon, non-chalant and talking shit on the Thumb||
like, unless she was actively doing jack shit icl that shit was kinda fraud behavior
could very well be ya
||meanwhile middle and index father having the times of their live. esp middlefather||

the top comment got me chortling hard
true
the Thumb are officially frauds confirmed
iounno
||Lei Heng|| didn't feel like a fraud
I can fraudpost about anyone
(said with the same sort of vibe as Pierre's "I Can Cook Anything")
the last time we had happy, quiet, calm music was right before (Canto 8 spoilers) ||Hong Lu's birdwatching incident|| iirc
so
I'm scared
very scared
But good? Lmao
yeah Peony was right before it I think
I need more of the middle goober
I need more of her Dad
So saw a good point
||There must be a mole behind tjis invasion
It's either a character we know, or someone unseen until now, and the writers would need to compensate for the lessening of emotional impact in the latter||
Albina is my fave
Canto 8 is going to feel light-hearted and fun after Canto 9 bruh 😭
fucked up....
||tbf, being able to hold back a color is impressive innit's own right||
||Alyssa, marton, saude, pilot
Also, mole could be index apprentice||
Her dad is a walking rave fr
I love his foot
||Ryoshu daughter could be the mole but that doesn't feel like it fits
The web of the nursefathers, according to the trailer, leads us to the daughter
Her just being in limbus company undercover doesn't feel fitting for that||
what a sentence out of context
Feet doko
Ngl yeah the ringdoll is pretty cute
misg art when
I like her mechanics too
Already out
oh fr?
Check the main sub
different artist also made one
||side note
Virgil is one of the weaker colors right
ya know what thsi scenario
don't think so
or
idk maybe I don't know
It is kinda implied that Verg is at his best in like fights where he fights waves and multiple enemies etc
and 1v1 is like not his specilaity
okay yeah true
is really.familiar.too
Kira by misg
Butler ryoshu uptie
by (jebi_0118_)
Canto 9 spoilers, don't click till you're done with part 1
||From what we've seen, all of the nursefathers appear to be mutilated in some way. Valencia with her eye, the middle guy having a replacement leg, the Index guy having mutilated himself, the Pinky one having her tongue cut out, Ring being.... Ring.||
reverse on the last two
So who do you guys think ||is the mole?||
||Can't say||
yeah I mistyped
Well
If limbus crew specializes in anything
||We just don't have a ton of info||
||we get a 5 apprentice fight and like a crazy fucking ost mix for those that keeps switching up||
It’s attacking a fortified compound
ye
also a thing i notixed
looking at ryoshu's ids
is that of the named chafacter relevant ids
Butler, Nshu, ans Drifter
all of them are failed caretakers
Nshu not direcrly but
givem who she's based on
ye
It looks kinda like ||Hana style transforming weapon||
ye it does
its just such a fucking explosion of an opening
like compare that to the last cantos act 1s
"we're going back to Heathcliff's past lover!"
"we're going to a vampire amusement park!"
"we're going to H Corp to participate in the Heirarch competitions!"
"...oh.... oh no......"
Fighting five fucking fingers at once
with the ost going INSANE
Bruh whatever the fuck is going to happen in canto 10-12 is gonna be horrifying
And we’re gonna see EGO shits, AND part twos
Sisyphus looming
Faust's canto deadass bouta be an entire psychological horror game about the loss of agency and self or some shit bruhhhhhh 😭
Gifted kid burnout mixed with silent hill
I wonder if KJH could do a tasteful fourth wall break
Ryoshu did talk about plot progression
That's less direct, moreso a crack and also her just being kind of like that
And limbus is just a mirror of lightning, built from the prescript that is known as autism to the rest of us
KJH links the player to a live video feed of their room
Bravely Default
Wonder what will be the synergy for ||house of spiders|| ids
||I think they won't have any||
||Like i genuinely think they'll follow the themes of their respective fingers, because so far the House does not really work.together as a unit||
||They all do individual shit out of each other's way. Working to a common goal but not really like, coordinating||
9-18 spoil ||The one bit of cooperation we got ended with one attacking the other||
||lock the fuck in||
||but this is exciting||
Lol true
||absolutely fucking love thar they're still rival syndicate members like yes if you're not with the plan I'm going to fucking kill you||
So ||each finger gonna stay their own team||
ye
||Eager for corporism and index ids||
||I def feel we'll get each apprentice as an ID ||
||Less certain on the Nursefather's||
I might think of the reverse
||i do think we'll get bigwig IDs since we got caposault||
they're too high caliber for us, I think? probably?
||that we’ll get the nurse father ids and that apprentices will live on to become bigger threats down the line||
it really just depends on what these guys actually are
ok hold on you're cooking
they're aura
wait you're cooking
||That i'm.nit.sure. They seem.about on par if a bit above Lei Heng||
True, we don't really know tbh
Cuz like
||Remember, we had to cheat to beat Lei.Heng||
||I feel like the apprentices are more of a focus
Being all in a situation similar to ryoshu||
^
And also got an assist from the ||5 Mang super slam||
||I think the heirs are more important than the fathers||
True...
||My theory is that the way to save Ryoshu is to savr the Heirs||
||And lucio might snap||
Oooooooo
||Because the story of the Spider's thread||
||The path to redemption requires allowing for others to climb up with you||
I have a suspicion that bad end ryoshu is gonna be tremor, somehow
||Lucio feels like he could distort
Some distortions parallel abnos
Abd Nothing There could be the inspiration||
||And thus stiry has already made a point of the sinners being focused on notnjust their own survival||
||But also the LCE members||
Thinking of burn with sinking or poise
||They wannt to save Alyssa, even though she's practixally dead already. But that desire to save her feels like a very thematically important thing||
Rage, madness, perfection
Plus fire has a big emphasis thematically
Tremor: The Hand
||He's a hollow mimicry after all||
Combination of tremor scorch, tremor hemorrhage, tremor sinking, etc
With poise on top lol
But that’s just me having Design Thoughts
"Me when I get you""
Ryoshu is close to index father, the strings of fate and karma have a big emphasis
So I think bad end ryoshu is burn but also could go well with index
Yeah I feel like an Index Father type of flavor would work well
Spider-Man meme with Roland and index daddy
I think bad end Ryoshu will count as like a finger member for each of the five fingers probably
A possibility too
In that case, tremor bleed envy guard plus something from index
And pinky has no mechanical identity, unless
Bad End ryoshu is likely ||Ryoshu that never left the Spider House||
"called by caucus" pinky members have some mechanics
Gotta wonder why project moon is making Roland nods so much with index papa
We shall see
Bad end ryoshu might also instead just have a mechanic to play off finger members added to the team
ye
Ngl imagine being a limbus fan whose never touched Ruina or lobcorp
Could do a reverse hong lu and staple her mechanics to finger members
i mean
And being so confused as to all the hype and random names and the new characters
the game facilitates that
you don't really need to know it, but it helps with figuring out atory beats
i will say
the Index Father
has more collective aura than all.of the index members in ruina combined
which is crazy work
I wonder if the apider house is mainly an index project
The strings and ensnaring plans make me consider that
If there’s any force that can get multiple high ranking members of different fingers to work together it would be prescripts
killing ||like an entire squad of Udjats without breaking a sweat||
is some serious skill
OK
UHM
they really need to do something about this shit
||lmao. I mean in hindsight ye I can see the textboxes have the same colour||
||but it is really not great you can spoiler yourself kinda by rereading stuff||
Bit confused
Like ||why is indexfather censored but then pinkyfather isnt||
OH
ye from the beginning. ||The spiral node||
||We see indexfathers face even first in the story but somehow he gets censored while pinkyfather appears later and briefer but is just shown lol||
Mmm
Hm what are the IDs y’all consider resonance IDs
Like, middle Sinclair, pequod Ishmael?
Liu sang?
like, they benefit from resonance, or they're a major component of it regardless?
Contempt Awe Ryoshu could also fit
liu sang, qoh don, middle sinclair, pequod ish
QoH if it's just "this is good for resonance"
id argue that bleed as a whole combined is lust reson heavy
but not on the individual level
Qoh don liked resonance? I keep forgetting how her kit works
yuh
ye qoh don is the centerpiece for envy res
her passive calls for reson a lot
she has 2 envy skills and an envy defense so she'd still be on the envy res team even if she didn't benefit
chenvy*
it is the chenvy team tho
shes one of the two double envy IDs
Middle Don is not used nearly as much from what I've seen
middle sinclair fits in the team too
you wanna combine her with the charge batteries and you include middleclair cause he just adds to the res ye
aren't there 3
the team is still missing like another good id tho
i dont think so?
Harpooner Heathcliff
cause uh
middleclair aint it
lemme check
using w heath these days
oh shit youre right
is his defense envy or smth
i love how heathcliff got trans'd into ishy's girlfriend
it is, nice
okay yeah so he works on envy res
also a bleed id which is good for MD reasons
I still like middle sinclair, I think it's mainly MD where he kinda struggles because everyone else is charge on the team now so not as much chance for bleed gifts
i think rhinosault works for MD envy cheed
but you'd rather dulci or someone else when it comes to envy iirc
The chenvy team atm is MC Faust, QoH don, Middleclair, middlesault, w outis, w heath and reindeer hongler
I fucking hate middlesault so much
But yeah index father didn’t really strike me as a person who would like using the spiral weapon
w outis reindeer and middlesault are the main problems in the team. W outis is good but ye only semi fits for the purpose of the team
yeah thanks cool your best skill fucks up the chain so I can't use it if I wanna actually use the team
The one scene we get with him ||is him saying he doesn’t want Ryoshu using weapons that kill people slowly because he thinks they are too cruel||
trust we getting better middle ids for the team
So it would be out of character for him to be using those spiral weapons
praying for an ID of the goober
Pinky father however always struck me as being particularly uhhhh
kira don would be hilarious
Eastern middle seems to use weapons btw
and ricardoheathius
||We also see him instantly smoke the LCA members, so I'd figure he's still following that idea of killing them quickly||
#1208554035326484531 message ye as you can see the read text option told us the truth
the swords are so peak
Yeah but I ||kinda figured it was pinkie father from the start so lmfao||
Vindicated
probably an error, I don't think they intended to spoil it
but also yeah I'd figure it to be ||Pinky or Ring||
oh yeah fair lmao
And same voice
in hindsight we can also see that the textbook colour is the same as her
I'm just waiting for more on the Pinky tbh
||and I suppose we now know the name of pinkyfather is Saru||
like, we still don't actually like. know what they're like as an organization. Every member we've met feels different
It’s tarnished bronze ||color for pinkie father. Sky blue for index father||
I love how silly the middle is
they're the closest we've gotten to levity in this canto so far and it was still in a moment that made me go
I wonder ||what the pinky philosophy is
And why pinky father uses a paradox weapon||
||at the very least, from what we've seen, incredibly different from Jia Qiu and Zilu, or at least the new members we're seeing are||
||it is also funny how we only get to see albinas full no armor sprite in the theater mode lol||
I love the ||flesh greatsword that is prob all of her Fascia||
also
||I did not expect for uh the ring to be i guess in charge of building the perfect weapon for their sword that cuts through all||
but it makes sense i guess
||Also we still actually dont know wtf pinkyfather AND even funnier what middlefather taught ryo||
||hey wait that’s the ribcage sword that ring father was building isn’t it||
I dont think so?
Well it does look like a ribcage
at the very least a similar philosophy
Wonder if these rings have any connection to Jaeheon btw
||The ringfather did specifically say that the work we saw would have been for ryo and would be her perfect weapon. I dont think they would "waste" it on an apprentice||
and given the fact that ||Lucio became Valencia's apprentice after Ryoshu's disappearance, I would assume that the apprentices all sort of picked up where Ryoshu left off, similarly as "textbooks" for her eventual return||
||I would actually argue that the fact it's purpose built for ryoshu makes it more likely they give it to an apprentice, such that they can become the perfect template once Ryoshu returns||
Does that mean bad end Ryoshu will be a prescript obeying hourglass figured woman who uses a scabbard to attack people while wielding paradox weapons and with a chain arm wraps
||or at least like, some variation of the idea, made with her own flesh||
Maybe ||meant to be disposable, or stepping stones for ryoshu at least.
Would be hype if ryoshu saved each of them instead||
I dont think ryo would use the art on herself outside of her weapon
Fathers: ||no you're meant to dehumanize and grow!||
Ryoshu: courage to protect goes brrr
it would be incredibly thematically fitting and also ||we need to make up for the LCA losses bruh we need more fighters these mfs got mulched by the Index Nursefather 😭 ||
I need more udjat ids
it is so funny that ||faust insta goes into powerscaler mode and does the "uhm but IF WE WERE IN AN OPEN FIELD" speech||
anyways assuming each part will be an equal amount of nodes, which, I honestly think it might be longer than that, around 54 nodes
but tbh with everything unfolding I wouldn't even be surprised if we hit 60 or something
there is so much shit to work through
in hindsight aswell
makes actually sense why we didnt get an intervallo before this
seeing hwo the story starts
it does make sense
||Ego moment is everyone jumping index father||
Yeah
cause they dont need a preamble or journey towards somewhere
Nurse fathers wouldn’t have wanted us to prepare for this fight
This was a surprise attack
||speaking of saru, do you remember what her star was? i tried finding it on wikipedia but had a bit of trouble||
going from "it seems like everything will turn out okay after all :3" to The Horrors. was. a lot.
Oh there are two Dihuis
||not a heavenly star but one of the earth ones||
Check the Chinese characters
oh there are
It's the other one
||Saude||
||Their position, their familiarity with the Sinners, their wound, the fact that they control the gate in and out of HQ now, it’s all far too convenient||
||I do think it is also semi suspicious alyssa wasnt with marton and hohenheim (they mention she wasnt with them on the way to the presentation) and then also happens to lie near where our sinner appear||
||Losing Charon, showing up right in time for the Sinners, setting up the exact confrontation the Nursefathers wanted||
||She’s part of the Nursefathers’ game of escape room… unless they set her up with a weapon she can unlock herself to escape from her mortal wound and vanish at a moment’s notice||
Good argument
||also going even farther back, her unexplained survival of the Kromer Incident.||
Idk I just pressed p+enter with my endgame decks
🤔 true tho
im so excited about ex clear objective 15
this is how this Canto has felt so far to me
damn
sooooo...
how was the canto part?
The last fight of this part of the canto was so peak
Horrifying
It’s peak
Banger fight, I really liked it. Liked how Ren utilizes poise and how you have to deal with it. Love how you can basically manipulate Albina's pattern to be stuck on phase 1 just by dodging her envy skill. I love that the clashing numbers aren't that high, LCB Ryoshu can barely outclash them, which is good. Eating unbreakables after winning the ...
9-18 spoiler
shit's going down
shits going down
||they're all after ryoshu and she's like i hate you all this is the most exciting moment of my life when everyone else is like this is the worst possible outcome for the LC||
||and also they're mildly not listening when she says yeah it's all for me this is a hand crafted display for me||
||I mean.they are, that just kinda doesn't really explain much immthe current scenario||
||It's the why whem.everone is womderimgmthe what||
anyone else see Kill Bill parallels with Ryoshu?
that, and also the whole former assassin, “loss” of a child (dead or taken from her remains to be seen), etc.
...wait, is that why she's in bridal gear in the splash screen??
She's the fucking bride???
i'd believe it
Part 2 next week or in two weeks
next week, 8/1
Nice nice
||it doesn't do much, but it does seem like they kind of need reminding that there is literally one objective for the nursefathers and basically everything else is a fruitless endeavor until their shit is completed or Bulldozed
but then again LCB has pulled Some Shit from impossible situations so it's not like unreasonable for them to make these plans of action.||
Catching up on a lot of missed convos now, so sorry for the late ping: this is a term used to describe a bloody battlefield or other such scene of chaos and death. It’s written 修羅場 (修羅 “shura (Asura)” + 場 ”place”), and is a reference to the battlefield at which Indra (or Śakra as he’s frequently known in Buddhism), Lord of the Devas, fought the Lord of the Asuras.
damnit, I misstranslated the last word then
atleast I got one right
||I feel assuming that it sthe o ly goal the nurse father's have herr is a bit of a fallacy||
||it is certainly a main one, but the story draws attention to.yheir actions hinting to something deeper than that||
||Like stealing the boughs||
||Yeah, if they specifically were after ryoshu, they had a bajillion chances to attack before now||
||They wove a great web, whose threads we can barely fathom||
||This inter finger organization is largely unknown, whatever got them together is big||
alright
I think my next team to build
is gonna be Bleed
I have every bloodfiend but Don
and FB Yi Sang and CA Ryoshu should fit for the other two slots for MD
and then also get firefist as a nice treat for my burn team
also my BF Sault
tho
if Greg had better finger ids
i'd go with a full finger team
which would be funny
Can I post a clip of Vergilius saying 니가 or is that toeing the line with regards to slurs
because it’s a great reaction clip
i am unsure what that means but if u feel it toes a line then it might be best to not?
I shall err on the side of caution then
The index shoul replace the looms with cats and dogs, and make their decisions based on them
Like that ending in undertale where the dog king makes everything better
||they're gonna stick the boughs in her and make supershihide||
||My guess is that they have known about the LCB’s maturation process through their mole and want a “complete” Yoshihide||
||So the Nursefathers deliberately put together a shindig to try and force Ryoshu to awaken and mature as completely as possible while still dragging her back to their side||
||In a move typical of abusive parents, they want to be the authors of Ryoshu’s story and to decide what her complete and realized self is||
||Albina’s head is a bit of an enigma since we know that, per the Head’s rules, machines aren’t to be created in the image of humans - even prosthetics have to be obviously mechanical.||
||Alfonso does loophole it||
||That, or some of her head is organic||
||I’ve seen some people posit that the body is the prosthetic and the sword is the human but 1. She refers to Fascia as a separate thing and 2. Even if that were true, the prosthetic still wouldn’t be allowed to look human.||
That was the K Corp chick, yeah?
On point 2, she’s obviously a machine, not human
Hmm. I wonder if those lines on their faces are just that - lines. Painted on or implanted in their skin as like an augment or even a fashion statement.
Like they do in Cyberpunk lol
Like, she has floor tile hair lmao
Re: augments I reckon cyborg parts just have to be clearly nonhuman enough to make it clear someone’s been modded so you can’t sneak in amongst fully organic humans
Fair. I guess it’s more a question on what extent they’re allowed to look human then.
Since Sinclair’s family would presumably have access to some fairly high quality prostheses, but chose to get the geometry heads.
Alfonso has a barcode on her face so I'm assuming genuinely any arguable amount of distinction is workable
From a Doylist perspective the point of that taboo is to make it so cyborgs have to be visually distinctive rather than any Citygoer potentially being a beast under the hood
Also, apparently wacky nonhuman shape heads were just in fashion at that time
It wasn’t taboo ban forcing them to look that way
Yeah, they kind of just found it fashionable iirc
Damn, the extremes of fashion really do be stupid even in the City 
Idk I'd be an objecthead if I could, at least sometimes
TV head would be cool. Or a lantern.
Security camera
Lamp
Got fuckers like the Thumb strutting around in snazzy suits, got that shit on. And then you got some mega rich lightbending guy with a waffle iron for a bonce.
I want a TV head but only if I can replace it with a humanoid one at will
Something about Fullstop nickname
Human self-expression do be funky
His name’s Nemo tyvm

exactly who I had in mind, thank you
Nemo is genuinely my favorite side character of all time
Given the Corpists’ shtick I wouldn’t be surprised if ||she actually has no prosthetics and Corpist elites remodel their own bodies, flesh and bone, until they resemble and can perform on the level of prosthetics||
I hope so bad that we see Nemo putting the fries in the bag post-Library
Also the two other fixers alongside him
It would be SO good
||Kira Don, Albina Faust, Lucio Sinclair, [CENSORED] Index Apprentice||
My opinion on the possible ||apprentice|| IDs
Phyrexian-ahh art philosophy
I bet we’ll get the ||Nursefather / Capo / Big Brother / Maestrosc etc|| instead though
Or Tzimisce
look if you told me there was a corp out there Compleating their guys I would go "yeah that tracks"
||Nah, Lucio Gregor||
It seems like a reasonable extrapolation from the statement on how Corpists create weapons at least
I mean one of the Xianren straight up resembled a Tzimisce elder so it’s possible
||The dehumanization and domestuc abuse angle make it feel.extremely in vogue for ol greg||
See
i think that the Ring Nurse father
||Might be related to the Carnival||
||Because not only does his mask/face seem similar||
||But the Carnival also made high quality goods from people, if not as artfully||
Good point, but also, ||Kromer||
With the tone set with part 1
||what about Kromer?||
Which is also one of those thoughts
||I don't see how that relates?||
More about the flavor of relationships and such
I genuinely think we're gonna face our first ALEPH this Canto
||Eh, that's different in the extreme||
||Kromer was obsessed with thenidea of Sinclair but she didn't deperson him||
tbf though Gregor is the one guy I know the least about
I think it'd be Gregor
||Valencia does not see Lucio as a person to be cherished or changed or uplifted. He is a tool for a purpose, and it will do that purpose or be beaten into shape until it does||
Mmm
Yeah I can see Gregor now
I just don’t know much about him since I forgot Canto 1-3 already
I wonder if there are Ring factions who focus on living artworks. We’ve seen something like that with the Pointillists trying to distill the potentiality of human life into a single living person through their Mirror experiments, but I mean more like flesh sculpting and body modification on the level of the Ring Nursefather, but as a whole Ring faction. Like the Tzimisce, as mentioned above.
All the Ring schools we’ve seen so far tend to make art out of dead or barely-alive humans, rather than reshaping living, breathing ones.
Turning people into… urinals
Oh
Oh God
Bad thoughts. Bad thoughts. Retract retract retract
Nightmarish, have a nice day
I was thinking more like a collective of carnie freaks who are constantly changing their own faces and adding extra limbs and shit
In addition to the Backstreets people under their “protection” most likely
This is a fetish I think
Like among all the stuff. There's gotta be some urinal TF stuff
But I guess that could easily swing more towards All Tomorrows’ Qu
With that thought I am going to now do a Dante and forget everything
It is.
Not like piss in general but specifically someone being turned into that
I’ve seen Sonic and Shadow merged into a single toilet 
What.
I can confirm this is true.
Ya it’s actually a fairly popular shock image you see on like 4chan and shit
Or in compilations of weird deviantart shit
Right up there with the werediaper and bigkneelover
The first thing I think of now when I think about weird deviantart shit is philosophy and existentialism
Ok the second thing is the most absolutely what the hell thing I’ve seen in a while
Because of Solar Sands pivoting from deviantart videos to like. Video essays on the concept of monumentalism.
Werediaper or BigKneeLover?
Latter
...fascinating.
ya it’s wild
They look like cancerous growths
Even the former can be taken as a form of comedy in the right context
It's like
The art is so normal besides the big knees
This is one of those topics we shouldn’t talk about lmao
Yeah mb
ya it’s not even like nude or anything, just girls with big knees
Actually
Now I’m thinking about how gregor is like
The one dude I know the least about
I somehow understand Meursault more than Gregor
How many nodes are in part 1?
18
Thanks
also
I’m nearly done then
Canto 9 spoils but also holy shit if this is true||https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/667621708152438801/1456135972843552879/SPOILER_1767234646056988.png?ex=695743cd&is=6955f24d&hm=c3a84c04ccf983ee0485af03ce61be0f550815b02b61a773aa0fd6693fa15c7c& ||
Didn’t spoiler right
It didn’t censor though
Like
I can still see it
And other images are getting censored
Moon mentioned, Bari appears in this Canto confirmed /silly
refresh
it has spoilered on my side
so it's discord acting up
it does that
OHHHHHHMYGORDDDD
Possibly insane meta foreshadowing
It is ||obviously mechanical though||
I think the ||fact that most cyborgs are like camerahead types is just because realistic face plate is prohibitively expensive for most people||
Imagine having to ||articulate all the facial muscles with mechanical parts||
Twice already and still not
Okay I'm back

genuinely do not know what to tell ya
it is spoilered on my end
and no one else has brought it up
Spoilered on my end too
Same here, spoilered
Mobile has been all sorts of fucked up lately
For me, the little preview above replies so you can see what’s being replied to is getting replaced with random other posts
like this
Somehow you are replying to my friend in another server 
lol
yeah, discord is made of spaghetti
y’know in hindsight this meme is very out of character
indeed
Manager it’s only part 1
More ||realistic prosthetic bodies are mentioned explicitly by Roland I think. Just yah, they’re expensive as shit so most prosthetic users go with the obvious ones||
Also like, ||Im sure it’s partially a cultural thing too. If you’re willing to get a radical full body prosthetic replacement, you’re also probably someone who wants to look like a robot||
||Look at Gaze office||
||their personalities and business model revolve around the aesthetic of cameras||
||and their bodies match||
||That or you REALLY need the strength/resilience,
more than you care about the tradeoffs||
From the moment I discovered the weakness of my flesh etc.
Yeah, considering there’s other, presumably cheaper full bodied augmentations that are just as effective if not moreso. Tattoos, clothing, etc.
||that’s true but there’s like dozens of other ways that don’t involve a full body replacement for equivalent costs||
||the brotherhood of iron, frankly, were kinda stupid||
To the point where the main benefit of these clunky mechanical prosthetics is stated to be that they’re cheap and replacable
Yah
Once you get past the initial costs it’s easier to replace a prosthetic then anything else
meanwhile, the people we see with very humanoid looking prosthetics can basically be counted on one hand
If you get enhancement tattoos and then your arm gets cut off
Not only do you have to pay for a new arm
You have to pay for new tattoos
Meanwhile if your body is mechanical, all you have to do is pay for a new arm
There are some major upsides to prosthetics, they’re replaceable, modular, allow more radical alterations if you wanna get weird with it and they’re immune to RSIs
But yeah
They mostly are a specialty thing rather than a straight upgrade from augmented flesh in the City
Plus, prosthetics offer you blanket immunity to a bunch of infirmities and contact hazards
i feel like whatever bioaugs the high grade fixers have going on probably do the same thing
Yah, not having to worry about most poisons and venoms is definitely an upside
So normal prosthetics main benefit: relatively cheap after you get the initial procedure
Other augments: tend to be more durable, powerful, or generally higher quality
High-quality prosthetics: durable, powerful, and replacable but also probably fuck you levels of expensive
Yah, and even if you have the money to spend, it’s still a big jump for most people
Unless you come from a community which already uses it a lot
The average city dweller seems neutral to negative on prosthetics
And not willing to do it themselves
The only groups we know did it on mass was Sinclair’s village and the multicrack office
Might be a general perception that they’re “worse” than other augs, too. Sinclair’s family was literally in the aug business yet he was surprised to learn that Sasha’s prosthetics let her eat and taste
Though that could have just been Sinclair
So there’s gotta be some kind of misinformation or stereotyping
His disgust at them may have stopped him from learning too much about them
Or yeah, maybe he’s just willfully ignorant because of his aversion
Actually remembering, I think that was just his family
For them not eating and sleeping was a bonus
Not a drawback
So they didn’t have bodies which could even though they could afford and make them
Also I wonder if that’s a big difference between like, utilitarian prosthetic users and the cyber freaks that were Sinclair’s family
Those who use them because they’re strong replaceable body parts and those who use them for the full transhumanist experience
got some context on 9-18 ||Thenpotential vibes of the Pinky Nursefather||
||"She gets captured by Liangshan Bo, her clan and fiancé are killed, and she's forced into marriage" ||
||This seems to be an overview of what happened to her name sake in water margin||
||So assuming the general vibes carry over . . . yeah, I can def see why she's like that||
She’s presumably Ryoshu’s bio mom
ye
Honestly I’m still wondering like, who’s the father of Ryoshu’s kid
Similar
From what we know, there doesn’t seem to be any room for romance in the spider’s house
So I doubt they were just the product of a fling
no one shown really fits the bill
does target extraction run on a set cycle, or is it all random?
The trigger warnings do not mention sexual assault or incest so I think we’re good on that front if that’s what you’re implying
it's not Rolex probably
Pretty sure it was either artificial or maybe just some random she had a fling or two with
Yah I don’t think it’s going there, it’s just atm the nursefathers are the only people we know she actually like, interacted with during the story
So for now
Until we get more of her backstory
They’re the only characters around at the time she had her kid
Actually I guess it could have been one of her tutors
I don’t think it’s lei Heng but there were others
||Valencia obv||
Lol
Maybe pressured into having the kid, at worst, but she presumably has some level of fondness for her daughter given the little bonding moment over her name so I’m honestly leaning towards it being fully consensual
Lemme rephrase that
I’m honestly hoping it’s fully consensual
If I were a betting man, I’m thinking rn it coulda been an arranged thing
I think the fact that she cares for the child means it's much more likely Ryoshu actually liked the father
whatever the case he doesn't really seem to be present anymore
Idk, I feel like Ryoshu might be willing to love the child even if it came from unfortunate circumstances
Yah, either dead or gone
yeah pretty much
It would be a nice bright spot in her backstory for her to have found love and companionship
…and thus making it all the more tragic when it gets taken away from her
Oh yah it’s gonna be fucked no matter what
Man, I’m not ready for the rest of this canto
||KJH writing a story about motherhood is gonna end my goddamn life||
Haaaappy new years and glory to PJM!!
Luckily it’s not the super mega leak like last time
gooood there was this fan comic I found on Twitter or Reddit or something a long time ago of Vespa obliterating that Kurokumo lady’s head for touching his car and now I can’t find it again.
it was like a 2koma. First panel was her yapping and lightly laying a hand on his rearview mirror while he looks down at it and pops a vein on his forehead. Second panel is him instantaneously Lei Heng’ing her with his fist. I should’ve saved it.
I have this
mmm I know exactly what the comic is, but I don't know the source
I think it might have been a drivethrough or smth?
It was that scene where the KK were trying to extort them for protection money
Incredible, saved
(Canto 9) ||wow that ebony apple boss really is a reading comprehension check huh||
lmao
DUnno where I saw the joke theory that nemo was hiding with his employees in a submarine in u corp
Makes sense
According to ruina, Tailors like the carnival are dime a dozen
The tech Tailors use is widespread int he city
So an actual connection is unncessary
Leviathan
There was an artwork that was a dancer in a time thing
ya, the Carnival’s prestige came from their skill as Tailors - they were like people-sommeliers, capable of telling what qualities a person would impart on the fabric at a glance and selecting the best materials for the finest fabrics
Ryoshu called what the ring nursefather does corporism, a school of the ring
So it must exist as a ring faction
Holy crap
I will just spoiler it, as it pertains to a sprite leak: ||the Ring Nursefather is largely mechanical, like Albina||
Whereas I had meant more along the lines of flesh-sculpting, ||not just body modification and augmentation.||
That's amazing, thanks for posting this
I wanna see this slice of life au
Also, Dongbaek would totally use a killdozer, now that I think about it
Ky Kiske
cursed
I found it on the chan but I’m legitimately tempted to open up photoshop later and give her Ky’s jacket and sword
To complete it
Gyaru Ryoshu
Lcb but everyone is a gyaru woman
Heasucrip…
Hm
||Lca high ups directly picked and sent technicians for the last inspection, likely to sabotage the gear||
Curious
||from hq||
||seems limbus company is deliberately doing a laxklustee response||
||its going to be kinda interesting getting that regular check-up bokgak||
we love a foregone conclusion
||Yeah, probably for the purpose of lettin ryoshu get her turn||
||But also, maybe something else?||
||I thibk the bigger thing isnthatbuh||
||Index father was a star of the city||
|| A fuckin Star||
||I feel a bit disappointed that this was limbus company letting things get messed up rather than the enemies getting one over the company||
||No wonder the LCA are getting mulched||
||Dude is switching styles like dante dmc and wrecking them||
||Did it just to piss ryoshunoff||
||Thennasked his daughter, how didnur remedial classes go, sweetheart?||
btw how does drifter ryoshu fare in a non heishou poise team
new crack prediction, spoilers for Canto 9
||So, since Aeng-du is here, and the main thing with Ryoshu and the Nursefathers is swords... Bamboo-Hatted Kim appearance in Part 2? To claim bones, possibly? When shit looks dire?||
||my take is that they will be our guides when/if we make it into S corp||
"if" is so fucking ominous
but yeah infinitely more reasonable
You know, the thing about cloak cloth being a reward in the index
Just makes their connection to weaving steonger
I think the house of spiders had heavy index influence, and perhaps pinky, as its basis
Seems you need the cloth rewards to renovate/repair your cloak to stay protected
So a way to check the loyalty of members is to attack them
If your drip doesn't hold up, you're a bad member
This really is the Chain of Memories canto. We even have an amnesiac character wandering her past while a quirky group of weirdos say cryptic things! Hm, keyblade design for ryoshu. Could see something simple (for her minimalism and amnesia), a main motif of strings/webs and flames, and small references to all fingers.
Thinking on the fingers, there's a neat simmetry.
Thumb and pinky focus on specific direct weaponry and are on opposite ends of order/strictness
Index and Ring are more esoteric, information based, and use more gimmicky things, with index using locked swords, chains, the reward cloaks. And Ring using a myriad technological tricks and equipment. They can be surprising with index having unexpected intelligence on people and ring popping around with corridors. Both are also on opposite ends of strictness and order
stick some fixer merchendise on it and its basically just ryoshu+donquixote
The Middle, as the finger in the center. I can't say much about their combat, nothing interesting comes to mind.
But their organization can be seen as an in-between of order and disconnection, being a laidback family but demanding loyalty and affection, and having a pseudo legal system
You know, the middle seems nice but depending on how demanding they are that you act out "love" for the family, might be really hellish, even before you consider the idea they might make your insecurities fester

guess what I'm cooking with this
actually wildhunt is probably better
KJH I understand but also hooooolyyyyyyyyy shittttttt
2 level 9 luxes to go from 55 to 60
this is already much. much more painful than KoDya.
I must stay strong. I must not quit. I must MDE solo at least once
||Go ahead index nursefather, win the clash||
combine this with LCA Dim. Shredder Kim crack theory
and we have
peak beyond measure
Also I’m curious why ||Vespa wasn’t with the rest of the LCD||
||The meeting was super duper important||
good question
Also like, this canto 100% confirms to me that ||The vanguard Udjat serve the same role as the rabbits did for L Corp||
||They are the companies “kill everything in that sector” button||
pleaaaase
pleaaaaaaase Lob Corp sequel of LCE management
pleaaaaaaaaaaaase let me torture myself with new and improved mechanics and gear
Hilariously a ||bit more discerning group than rabbits||
But yeah looks like Dias decided she loved rabbits so much she wanted a better version of them for herself
Dias petplay
yeah, like, we saw them and they didn't shoot us on sight
presumably because they see the clock head and know that's like, The Guy, but
We saw them through a window
okay true
Benefit of having your kill everyone super soldiers be born out of genuine cult like loyalty to you instead of inserting them with enough barely contained bloodlust their only strategic mindset is “if not rabbit, shoot”
I mean we’ve also just encountered the LCA before in general though
And they didn’t murder us there either
do we know what role they were specifically
||because the ones we saw here were noted as probably Recon, here before Vanguard?||
They’re equipped the same so probably ||recon too||
It’d make sense to send those guys to extract the monolith too
I love the dialogue of "in an open field our guys would win"
"So if our enemy was stupid idiots they would win of course"
House of spiders had the prep time so they won
||They all know if allowed he could single-handedly stop the entire raid||
||so an entire nursefather and apprentice is dedicated to just keeping him occupied by taking Charon hostage||
Also some other guy apparently
||probably the ring nursefather||
||since he’s the only other one we haven’t seen partaking in the raid itself||
It was an unrelated individual
Oh
The ring father is in fact there
||"this guy genuinely fodderizes us we gotta keep him outta this"||
Did they just hire someone to jump him in transit?
Maybe
||That Vergilius is a color isn’t he… I better kidnap Charon or IM FINISHED!||
We dont know who the other guy was
who the fuck would accept that contract unless it was like, another color fixer or some shit
Idk someone stupid maybe
It was someone from his past
then they wouldn't be able to fucking stall at all
they'd just get 1 tapped
wait what
They didnt even stall vergilus they wounded him
I mean it makes sense
Read da dang dialogue
ahhh ok
I was very tired you have to understand
I DID I JUST HAVE SHIT MEMORY
New years was happening in the background for me
But yah, I am wondering who, it want one of the nursefathers, it happened before the raid, and it was someone who could actually wound him- was it the purple tear?
Did she need the raid to go a certain way?
If there’s anyone who would just do something mysterious and seemingly not helpful to her actual plans that are actually key somehow
It’d be her
Yah, if she can get someone into the library there’s nowhere she can’t go
I really like all the apprentices
yeah but did the|| alarms get disabled||
how*
||either a mole or limbus higher ups did sabotage||
Also, ||Valencia bringing up some war makes me wonder if she’s referring to the smoke war or some unrelated war between fingers||
They’re very fun
Also probably this season’s main source of IDs if I were betting
“Shit man, this wing war is fucked. I just saw a guy clap his hands together and say "Like A Roaring Storm" or some similar shit, and a giant swarm of glowing red dots just appeared out of nowhere and sliced everyone in half. The camera didn't even go onto him, that's how common shit like this is. Fuck, I think the dude is holding back because I think that’s a J Corp seal on his fucking weapon. My ass is using Keen Slash and Focus Strike. I think I just heard "Variant Don Quixote Style: Sancho Hardblood Arts: La Sangre" two blocks over. I gotta get the fuck outta here.”
