RIP PYRRHA

>>386454159
who?

I sent Hedwyn home first. Duder was kind enough to pick me up off the floor and set me up right.

I left the imp, the sap, and the crone. They got along fine in the downside.

>>386453610
hedwyn, though i regretted it later
pamitha, bertrude, ti'zo, oralech

ORALECH DID NOTHING WRONG

>>386455860

If he wanted to go home, he shouldn't have let Ti'zo fuck him up in the midfield.

Just finished it. Fuck that was underwhelming. I was hoping there was a traitor or some way to alter/stop the Plan. And after the first couple Liberation Rites you sort of just go through the motions until it decides to stop.

Why did you regret it? He was my first too, and made perfect sense. No better man to lead on the other side.

>>386457063
i think he was the best first choice from the info available, but having him stress about not fulfilling his promise was a real mood-killer

not to mention i never got around to learning his backstory

I chose Rukey first because I wanted to make certain the first three went up (didn't know how many I'd get to pick) and he was the most boring of the three so I didn't care if he was gone.

Volfred, Bertrude, and Fae

I kind of wanted Volfred to be able to see the end result of the revolution, but overall they seemed like the three who were the least invested in returning to the surface themselves.

Fae in particular seems to not care much either way.

>>386469386

A thought I had while listening to the soundtrack: the game uses English as the language spoken by Readers, with the Voice and Volfred communicating to you in English when they speak into your mind and the Book of Rites itself being written in English.

Everything else in the game is spoken in their fictional language, when we hear spoken lines. The other exception to this is when Tariq and Celeste sing - do you guys think in-game they're singing in a language that only the Reader and Volfred are understanding the words to, or is the translation something that you assume is for the benefit of the player and they're "canonically" singing in the game's fictional spoken language?

>>386470016
It wouldn't make much sense for me if Tariq started singing that song on the boat if the rest of the crew couldn't understand it

Props to Volfred for being a character who fucking SCREAMS "betrays you at the end" and "secret secondary agenda" in both writing and design, but actually ends up being completely legit to the end.

>>386470268
I thought Volfred might betray you before you actually met him. Pamitha remains suspicious as fuck until the end though

>>386470324
Eh, she states it blunt that its relationship between her and her sister before you, despite that she leaves them to join you.

>>386470197
>>386470016
I think the devs tweeted that this is true, Tariq and Celeste sing in a foreign language to the exiles.

Put her up against her sister in a liberation rite. She shows her true colors.

>>386471873
that doesn't seem like it's too difficult, especially since the Union now doesn't send people to the Downside as punishment anymore. Send supplies over the waterfall. I would have liked to see the Union supporting life in the Downside in the epilogue, and not just ignoring it.

Don't know if it's one anon or many, but thanks for posting all the screenshots in this thread. I've gotten so many new good wallpapers from this game

So is this game an RPG like Final Fantasy or an RPG like Fallout?

Slick; caught me out

Let's hear it then, I've got no intention of being intimidated. You can dunk me, but you can't dunk my spirit.

I got dunked hard: Lost the last rite 0-15. Orlech offered me a spot; I refused. He was the victor,
and if anyone was going home, it was my Pamitha.

I had to keep going until they were all free.

Hedwyn was a trustworthy, had someone he wanted to get back to, and was the only one who's backstory I knew at that point. Seemed like a solid first choice.

Ended up leaving Ti'zo, Bertrude, and Sir Gilman on my first run. All of which seemed reasonably happy about how things turned out.

Would totally have sent Oralech up if he agreed with Volfred's plan, but he didn't seem willing to compromise.

Howlers, constant storms destroying would-be settlements, lack of food, etc.

I kind of wish we had a moment in the story where we were running low on supplies to emphasize the harshness of the situation though. I imagine that our group was better equipped to scavenge for food and the like than most, but it felt like survival was going just fine as long as you had a fancy flying wagon.

Fate is the only one that really deserves to win. Pam wants Tam to go free but if Tam is free I'm pretty sure you're locked out of a bloodless revolution, since Tam makes the harps attack.

>>386481659
No she's just locked up and interrogated until she breaks out during a riot if the revolution is bloody or freed by the revolutionaries if it isn't.

>>386481659
In my ending I lost to Tamitha and freed Pamitha later, and things turned out alright.

Apparently because Pamitha talked her down from proceeding with the attack on the commonwealth.

>>386481893
That's weird. I did pretty much the same thing and the revolution was bloody only because the harps attacked. Pamitha didn't talk her out of it
There must be something else contributing to it

__ae is the most broken character in the game. If you get the mastery that speeds up your throw, and the talisman that increases damage done by throws, you can throw before the enemy team even reacts and do upwards of 25 damage.

How did you all spend your free time events? Private Study feels like a bit of a waste- the bonuses are global but they're also really small. Mentoring seems obvious, but I never looked into what exactly you got from foraging.

Does anyone have any wallpapers of the backgrounds in 1440? Specifically the dreadlock skeleton.

>>386490092
I maxed out the private studies on my first playthrough. They're small rewards, but I didn't feel like I needed a huge amount of money, and I liked to have lasting bonuses as opposed to upgrading a character that I might be freeing in a match or two.
