Signalis? That gay robot game?
This is Havana Syndrome
It's pretty mediocre, best just stay a secondary and ejoy the robutt yuri
>>4180302Fuck this zoomer mentality.It's a video game, play it. It's only like 8 hours
Remember, a productive citizen is a loyal citizen.For working as little as an extra 3 hours a day for just 356 cycles, a loyal citizen would be able to save up enough Rationmarks for chest and buttock enhancement upgrades as a gift for a Replika of their choice.
>after playing this gameWhy does the militaristic govt keep investing into these Replikas? They seem to be very flawed and instead of fixing the errors the govt provides workarounds.
>>4180431>Why does the militaristic govt keep investing into these Replikas? They seem to be very flawedThe Protektors would be very keen to know where you heard such idle gossip, comrade.
>>4180480In the papieren distributed by das govt, bitte.
>>4180201Repeat offender too.
>>4180059Make me.
>>4180431because they are very useful despite the flaws
>>4180315Playing this game just makes me wish I was playing a Resident Evil or Silent Hill instead. In fact, I could beat several of those in those 8 hours.
>>4180672>Playing this game just makes me wish I was playing a Resident Evil or Silent Hill insteadThat's stupid, because neither of those games have lesbian robots
>>4180678Neither does this one for like 90% of its playtime.
>>4180678He doesn't care about yuri, he's here solely to do franchise vs franchise debating that you'd commonly find on /v/. I'd recommend not engaging further.
>>4180287Cute androidlet.
For me it's the theme song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ez225PlwHA
>>4180710Never been to /v/.
Nier Automata had sad lesbian androids in 2017This game had sad lesbian androids in 2022So we should get a third game in the sad lesbian android trilogy in 2027, looking forward to it.
Made it to the mines after about 4 hours. How much longer do I got until the end? I'm digging the game but I can tell it's gonna be one of those cases where I have to look up some plot explanations because I'm too much of brainlet to connect the dots myself.
>>4181341There's three chapters so you're nearly to the halfway point.And yeah, you're probably gonna have to look shit up to understand what's going on, even I'm still not 100% certain about what happened.
>>4181336Stellar blade, maybe? The trailer has that yuri vibe.
>>4181347I watched two trailers and didn't see any yuri, either your goggles are on too tight or I didn't see the right one. The aesthetic seems cool at least.
>>4181341>>4181344>understand what's going onThe problem with Signalis is that this is impossible.
>>4181352Yeah but you can get like 90% of it, the rest is up to speculation I think.
>>418135390% is far too generous.
>>4181336Crymachina?
>>4181336Nier Automata had a criminally low amountbof lesbian androids. (Well, gynoids.)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4joCFJ2melQ
>>4180285That's impressive. She didn't let even a single drop of coffee spill.
>>4181362Not really. The timeline of events is pretty straightforward if your properly read the documents.The only important thing that aren't clear are the metaphysical stuff like the meaning of secret ending or why everything even happened in the first place.
Eating a Replika is a bad idea, as their flesh is very toxic. Is kissing or having sex with one dangerous too?
>>4183604no
>>4183604Unless you mean to literally eat their pussy/ass, intimacy with a Replika is perfectly safe.In fact, it's probably actually safer.Because of their artificial nature, there's no risk of catching an STD from a Replika.
>>4180059>>4180127I haventtell me more
>>4183829Play the spooky game with robot lesbiansSimple as
>>4183829Do you like survival horror?Do you like godless horrors from beyond the veil of reality?Do you like sad lesbian androids?Do you like the retro sci-fi aesthetic (stuff like floppy discs and windows 98 in a futuristic setting with space ships)?Do you like the aesthetic of German communism?If yes, play game.
>>4184009>>4183834Alright I'll do itGod I hope there's more art like the OPIll draw some myself if I have to
>>4180710I want yuri horror with varied enemy types. >>4183829 Watching it on youtube will give you a superior experience since the actual game part is bland
>>4185054>Watching it on youtube will give you a superior experiencezoomers get out
>>4185082Report and ignore.
>>4185085I want lesbo robot enemies that are dog girls!I want lesbo robot enemies that are girls with long tongues!
>>4180691I see what you are doing and I do not appreciate your baiting tactics. It's obvious you just want to be spoiled.
>>4185309Replying to bait to point out it's bait is still falling for the bait you supreme dingus.
>>4185311Aw come on, let me at least tease her!
when the fuck did /u/ turn into /v/
>>4185309>>4185311>>4185315What the fuck are you all talking about.
Elster trying to fit two female connectors together.
>>4180691While this is obviously bait, I can actually see an argument for it to be made.If we assume that Elsters are originally straight and 512 only became a prison lesbian because Arianne was her only human contact, then S2301 would be straight for the majority of the game until her mind got subsumed by 512.
>>4186121>this is obviously baitIt's not. 95% of the game is walking around dark hallways doing fetch quests and listening to the radio, with all the yuri being relegated to some vague backstory that only becomes clear in the last few minutes before the game ends.
>>4186192>how to say you've never played the game without saying you've never played the game
>>4186217Don't dodge the point.
>>4186121Elster's gestalt was a lesbean and Elster fell in love with Ariane because she coincidentally looked like the girl the gestalt loved. Pay attention.
>>4186277There's zero evidence that Alina and Anna were in lesbians with each other. Sure, they were very obviously close, but it was never confirmed if they were platonic or not.
>>4186352Next you're going to tell me there's no evidence that Falke has nightly orgies with all her Kolibris.Quit joking around.
>>4186357Nah, that's obviously real.
>>4186357I love me some assertive KLBR Gang.
>>4186368>Nah, that's obviously real.But Falke wishes it wasn't
>>4186824She only has two hands and one tongue, so two Kolibris are going to be moody tomorrow, unless they're amenable to a footjob.
>>4186901>footjobWith what feet?
>>4186992They got stubby little hooves, which would actually fit inside a hole far better than an actual foot, for any replika or gestalt freaky enough for that.
>>4186824Falke thought having the Kolibris cater to her every whim would be a great stress relief. She didn't realize how tiring it is to keep up with 5 hyperactive midgets.Worse. Now that they had a taste of her flesh, they can't live without. If she doesn't let them have their way with her nightly, the productivity goes down the drain and everyone gets decommissioned.

I'm not going to buy a 4chan Gold account.
>>4180059Already did
All the high quality fanart made me buy it a few months ago. Really need to start playing soon.
>>4188893Bro you can knock it out in a weekend it's like 8-10 hours blind if you're not retarded nobody's asking you to turn some mobile gacha game into a second full time job.
>>4189454I've gifted it to 8 people, including 3 randos on /v/. Of those, 2 finished it. One got to Rotfront. Another got to medbay. One played ten minutes, did not continue. Two did not boot it, ever. One played ten hours, somehow did not finish. The two that finished it loved it. People are weird about that shit, took me a month to get a buddy to finish it. Lives rent-free for them now. Horses and water I guess.
>>4189454I already have a bad habit of starting too many games at once. I want to finish what I already have installed before starting another game.
>>4189458>/v/
>>4189542It's worth dropping everything to play it, seriously. It sticks in your brain afterward like the pudding at the bottom of the cup. It's less of a game and more of an experience.
>>4189458>>4190500Signalis will filter the majority of people who play it because it's a deliberatly retro horror game if you're not a complete pussy bitch you can do it with relative ease
>>4190495Crazy given we're talking about a video game, I know. Early after release people actually had long, in-depth discussions of the lore and puzzling things out. It only turned to shit about two months after because some abject commie got severely asshurt and started endlessly shitting up the threads. Go figure.>>4190501I think what annoyed me was I literally asked all of them if they wanted it or not. One got to Elster crawling through to the radio room and stopped after that. Not a bit further. I'm bewildered.
>>4190635>picWhat's this? Early concept? Fan game? Just some random art?
>>4190635>I think what annoyed me was I literally asked all of them if they wanted it or not.People don't turn down free stuff but they will not complete intentionally obtuse puzzle games
>>4190908Original version of Signalis. It was 2d side scroller at first and you were just investigating planets. Here's the original Penrose.
>>4190908Their professor told them in more polite words it looked like shit/generic, so they remade it, and we got Replika horror. Some of the later cut stuff was cool too, like Elster's stealth camo system, her machete, reading the Penrose's operations manual, that other survivor from Alina's squad..
>>4191009Any source on that story? Sounds made up.
>>4191108I'm not a database unfortunately, so I can't cite exacts. It was their university project, and they did a showing/demo at Hamburg of early versions. The paper/essay on the game has a copy, or had at the library of Hamburg. Have another early version, anyway.
>>4191108You can reverse image search these early concepts and find the source yourself.

>>4193313The port is covered by a removable flap.
>>4196066Wouldn't sticking your tongue there invalidate a Replikas guarantee? Not to mention the risk of electrocution.
>>4195735Do you think she singles one out for the night or calls for the whole hive?
>>4181349theres like 1 boy in the whole game and hes not part of the main romance
Any creative ideas for a robot girl pussy? signalis related I feel like just giving her an anatomically correct vagina would be boring. Need ur help
>>4198494It's just a big USB port.
>>4198503Is this what you call "yuri brainrot"?
You know what?*yurifies your yaoi*
question for you guys: which star & eule do you ship? i always assumed it was the ones in the mines.
(non-spoilery to the game because its a recreation of a movie scene. )
>>4204339All of them.
I just finished the game for the first time, jesus christ my heart is broken but i think it might be one of my favorite games of all time nowThere's so many questions i have but I'm also scared to read or watch any analysis because I don't want the picture i have in my mind to be replaced
>>4204818which ending did you get
>>4204818Just come away with it with your own interpretation.if you're interested in reading king in yellow for free, https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_King_in_Yellowthere's a quote from the book is never in the game, but reading it after playing Signalis and being heavy with emotion from my own lesbian experiences and being told I'll go to hell by my parents, this quote resonated with me:"If but the Vine and Love Abjuring BandAre in the Prophets’ Paradise to stand,Alack, I doubt the Prophets’ Paradise,Were empty as the hollow of one’s hand."
>>4204811Not one ara would get any love from a eule? :(
>>4193313i mean they canonically shit and piss ( they have their own bathrooms ) so i guess that means that they have working anuses and vaginas
>>4188806gleefully whisking her away to the afterlife..?i mean its cute though
>>4204875Promise god I'm still crying
>>4204980>Toteninsel (Emptiness)
>>4204914that might be more for the human staff and the prisoners since the place was a labor/political camp
>>4205492In the prisoner dorms area there's a specific bathroom marked only for guards, and the dorms areas have only bunk/areas for replikas, who also are known to eat. You can find half-eaten rations in the eule dorm.Given they apparentley have internal batteries, either it's to stabilise their persona or for a form of energy. I mean, it is a german game..
>>4205492there’s “worker bathrooms” and “protektor bathrooms”, Worker(gestalts) get no privacy and have to squat next to each other, whereas the protektors get sectioned stalls for privacy. afaik all protekors are replikas, as gestalts basically have no rights>>4205506basically what you said also i didn’t notice that the eulen have food in their bedroom! Also lstr says “I’m not hungry” at some point, and i don’t think it’s because she was mistaking herself as a gestalt so they probably have genitalia
signalis overdose
>>4205566>>4205506QED.Elster's known to have an internal battery, so perhaps it's some sort of high-carb conversion of chemical energy to electrical. Or maybe people really want to believe Elster got some tongue action.>DO NOT LICK REPLIKA PUSSY JUICE>IT MAY LOOK HUMAN, BUT IT IS A COMPLEX ANALOG AND WILL CAUSE ISSUES IF INGESTED>REPLIKA TECHNICIANS HAVE A 630% HIGHER SUCCESS RATE OF PLEASING THAN GESTALS>CONSIDER BEING A PILLOW PRINCESS OVER PROLONGING YOUR OWN ORGASM
>on replika dietApparently replika meat is incredibly toxic to humans. It stands to reason that their rations would be as well.
Happy 512 day
>>4206437How many lesbian holidays do we have?
>>4206469There's December 5th too for the non burgers
>>4180059happy 512 : )
Anyone try 1000xResist? It has sad lesbian clones and is Yuri approved.

>>4208444But they did account for rail thin girls and Replikas to shoot that rifle, apparently. I've seen really big guys getting knocked on their ass shooting those guns, but Jane Signalis seems to handle it just fine.
I was doing some digging and I happened across some old (unfinished?) project of yuri's from around 2015 named The Last Starfarer which also appears to be a sci fi yuri, I don't think it was meant to be tied to signalis but there's definitely some loose connection and influence in terms of the visualsThe only remnants of this project come in the form of a handful of sketches that were archived so there's not much to go off of in terms of what it could've been about but if anyone is interested i can post the other drawings related to it i found
>>4209420share more! I’m always interested in yuri’s pov. It helps me understand the vision of this game more.Any idea on what this sketch is depicting? I don’t know much about last star farer. Do we have any news in terms of rose engine? I doubt that the two of them will be making a new game any time soon, but do we have any idea if they are working on anything currently?
>>4209124just pretend it’s gravity on leng or something
>>4209507>Any idea on what this sketch is depicting?Unfortunately I've got no clue, the tumblr posts don't really elaborate much other than that it was clearly some project yuri had been putting serious thought into around the time signalis started development proper judging by the fact it has it's own dedicated button on the sidebarThe tags on the art featuring the girl named yuri stern are tagged with robot and android which implies she too would've been a robot girl, which checks out since she heavily resembles an earlier character of yuri's named rosenthal who's explicitly described as an androidMy current theory is that after they restarted development from the original sidescroller to the 2.5D top down incarnation, yuri rolled the characteristics and the (likely romantic) relationship of these two characters into elster and ariane to form what we have in the final game rather than their more formal relationship from the original narrative which would've been hard to make a compelling narrative around>Do we have any news in terms of rose engine?Neither creator has said a peep on any future plans, but frankly I think they've earned a rest
>>4209603Now this is where the signalis connections start to get real intriguing The art features a bunch of sketches of a girl named Rosenkranz (plus a soldier aiko in the top right)The space suit design here resembles the suits in signalis enough as is, but then you get to her uniformed design and it's incredibly obvious she's some kind of proto-AlinaI can't help but wonder what kind of relationship she would've had with the other two assuming she wasn't also paired up with some proto-Lilith
>>4206955It looks like her limbs were cut off.

>>4204980same anon, I'm still trying to recover. the emotional damage has been too high for me.
>>4211966Do you wanna talk about it, anon?
>>4212301sure anon i really need to get it off my chest, although might have trouble trying to articulate my thoughts and feelings about it.you see. i really "hate" this type of media, where there is this existential dread or feelings of hopelessness permeating every aspect of it(but i always consume it anyway).when you start signalis u get this clear objective of get into the complex and save your lover, but as you go deeper into it u see that things are really how they should be. you start to understand how things are and why are they like thati always get attached to the characters in it and i usually get stuck in these thoughts such as:the first elster didn't manage to keep her promise, she died. the other elsters are from other realities? other timelines? or are they just fabrications from arianes powers to free her from her torment. or is it a hell or her own creation? did elster managed to succeed and free her or is it just a dream or a coping mechanism and she is still stuck in the criopod? how many times did she try or for how long did she try or is she stuck on a loop forever? will they be happy again together?I guess not...reality itself is constantly changing.i keep regurgitating these thoughts and to the point that I start crying abt it aaaaaaaaaI'll play it again just to get the secret ending...
>>4212706sorry if things are too disorganized i cried trying to write this...
>>4212706Consider that there's an ending where Elster fails to go through with her promise. This is treated as a failure and the loop starts again.So she won't be stuck in a loop forever because she knows Elster (or an Elster, as the case may be) will eventually do it.Or an Elster can also break the rules and go with the secret ending. Up to you what that one means.
>>4212706Everything is alright, sis. I understand. You can always imagine them happy in a parallel universe despite what ever is canon.
>>4212706Cope and grow some balls, you whiny faggot.
>>4212726>TsundereI'mma hug ya too!
>>4212706>I'll play it again just to get the secret ending...The secret ending is even more confusing
Sometimes, when I feel like twisting the knife, I'll go on signalis's website and go to the content warnings page and when I read the "loss of a loved one" part it makes the feelings all come flooding back.
>>4212740The happy interpretations of the secret ending sound convincing enough to me so I roll with it if only to make the pain sting less
>STCRs are 220cm tallLORD have mercy.
>>4212979So long as they're together, it's a (relatively) happy ending. Considering the circumstances, it was the best they could get.A small victory is still a victory.>>4212980And Kolibri's are 152cm smol.
>>4212716the promise must be kept>>4212717thx anonette, thats my headcanon. theyre happy somewhere else in another universe>>4212726shush>>4212740it doesn't matter anon, i still want to see her happy.
>>4213137>the promise must be kept
There's a part of the story I don't get.Adler says that the disease killing everyone was caused by reality falling apart, and that the reality failure was caused by Elster dying over and over. But that implies Elster traversed a perfectly normal penal mining site at first. How did she die in those first loops?
>>4214014Terminal lack of pussy since her wife was sleeping in a fridge.
>>4214014>Adler says that the disease killing everyone was caused by reality falling apart, and that the reality failure was caused by Elster dying over and over.Not really. The timeloop always ended on the same day. The reality failure was caused by Elster-S2301 arriving to Serpinski. My theory is that with Alina there were two doppelgangers at the same place and it caused a connection with the Penrose.
>>4214014Kept running into the sharp wires.
>>4214447>The reality failure was caused by Elster-S2301 arriving to SerpinskiBut that Elster was always there. An Ara remembers her supervising the mining teams.
Which outer god do i have to make sacrifice to get a comfy slice of life AU vn spinoff where ariane and elster get to go on dates and have a happy life in an alt 80s scifi world?
>>4214719If rose engine doesn't want Germany and humble bundle checks and however fucking much they got from Xbox for the game pass inclusion, they can probably dangle Jane Signalis's Totally Mundane Cafe Life and a happy ending over everyone's heads for some easy cash.
>>4212726stfu retard>>4212706This is anon who asked!creators of signalis did a good job making it emotional, im sorry its been making you feel so sad. I will share my theory of the game in an effort to bring you some comfort.I believe that death in this game is the ultimate peace that all replikas strive for but don't know it. Not as suicide, but because their souls were denied access to the afterlife upon being revived into a new body as copies. As the original LSTR brain was destroyed on vineta (note in-game) i believe that the technology advanced within those 3000 cycles, they went and retrieved 512 and copied her. She is a copy of a copy. Mind-wiping her, but she still remembers ariane deep down. This is why she mistakes alina for ariane, she is having trouble distinguishing gestalt memories and 512 memories.Ariane is dead regardless of the ending. The nature of her death is not crucial, whether lstr killed her or not on 512. the isle of the dead is where Ariane is, waiting for LSTR. not for LSTR to take her there. it represents the unattainable peace and rest for Replikas. So when LSTR finally dies in true ending, she put to rest every LSTR soul fragment, and was able to dance with Ariane again in the afterlife and many more dances to come. perhaps they can be reincarnated into a better world together <3
>>4214807replying to my own comment to clear things up:https://signalis.wiki.gg/wiki/Replika_Overview:_LSTRthis is why i believe that LSTR-512's memories have been copied onto the new LSTR models, therefore she would remember Ariane. It's unknown what happened to all the other LSTRs without Ariane's memories. perhaps they are all dead. Maybe when the original neural pattern of a Gestalt is destroyed, along with all other copies of that original pattern shut down, the "soul" of that Gestalt is closer to attaining peace in the afterlife. But, LSTR-512 was copied onto the sierpinski model 2301, prolonging her stay in the land of the living. She is closer though, ever closer to being with Ariane with every lstr unit that dies in that facility?
>>4180059I want to see MORE violent tongue in throat, esophagus penetrating, stomach violating kissing please
>>4214591>But that Elster was always thereNo she arrived during the loop. Adler's diary mentions it. It also says that Adler's memories of talking to her in previous loops came back in later loops. One of the Kolibri's notes confirms both of these facts.Presumably the Ara also remembers meeting Elster in a previous loops.
>>4214818i need tongue in stomach so badly now what do i even look up to find this kink
>>4214889do you think perhaps falke was trying to delete LSTR-2301s existence because she was jealous and falke wanted to be the one with ariane?
>>4214889But what caused the first loops in the first place? The corruption was either very low or non-existant, and Adler wasn't trying to stop her, but Elster still managed to get herself killed so many times the reality failure got worse.
>>4215120Adler probably wasn’t trying to stop lstr because he didn’t know what was happening yet, falke wasn’t sick yet i don’t know what caused the time loop, there’s a chronometer dial in his room it may have significance but i don’t think it’s as cut and dry as say homura akemi
>>4214961we're gonna have to learn how to draw anon or commission itfuck me i cant believe we have a new kink with no content in this day and age, how is this even possibleno promises, Ill see what I can do
>>4214744KLBRs being portrayed as nothing but mind-beaming lesbian deviants is a treasure to behold.They have become the catalyst of the "You gay now" meme and I love it. Thanks, great artists!
>>4212706Why are you still looking for answers? There's only heartbreak at the end.
>>4215417It's probably stuff like >>4215417 that she projects into your head.
>>4214807>>4214810good to know anonette, good to know...at least this alleviates the pain i feel...
>>4215120Something, something bioresonance.Arianne herself was resetting the loops and I think it's not because Elster died, but because she failed to keep her promise.In one of the endings she walked away and I imagine that happened a lot during the early loops, because S2301 wasn't yet brainwashed into believing she's 512. She wasn't even brainwashed at the beginning of the game.Also random theory I just come up with.What if there wasn't a real timeloop?Arianne just kept removing everyone's memories and erasing evidence. But she got sloppy which is why there are notes that are seemingly from different loops. It would also explain why the corruption spread faster each "loop".The only question is where all the dead Elsters came from. To which the answer is: Something, something bioresonance.
how do you think star looks like underneath the chest plate? does she have organic boobs? is it just her organs/ribs under there?
>>4215695All replikas with vests have the vest as a seperate model file (except adler) they have normal breasts underneath. Falke has hidden textures under there too.
>>4215417>arainydancer apparently made a bunch of NSFW animations >she nuked them all after the devs said they don't want people making porn with the game models>only two of them seem to have been archived What a shame.
>>4215962what a shame indeed...but its better this way
>>4215962>make something >destroy itYou gotta be fucked in the head to do this
>>4215892wow!!! thank you this helps a lot.
>>4215962really?? wtf? someone needs to get them back from the void. how many were there????
>>4216060It seems to infer the vests are just stuff they wear in their position as guards and don't wear them off-duty for comfort. Only Adlers is 'baked on'. Most characters have a seperate texture file called 'emitters' consisting entirely of those white marks on their bodies.Elster's texture file when she's crippled also implies that below the coloured kinda fabric is some sort of soft gel layer. It's easier to see if you compare it to her normal model. Take that as canon replika tits if you wish.
>>4216073Posted the wrong file, my bad.
It's only speculation, but a cute little detail I liked was that when Elster meets Ariane for their anniversary, she's wearing what looks like red makeup on the edge of her eyes. STARs and Falke have similar markings so i'm wondering if it's an Eusan tradition. It's pleasant to think she went to the effort though, as it's missing on her med file photo and the flashback on the train.
>>4216073>>4216075wait so which is the tits underneath? the light grey or the one with the bright red triangle mark?
>>4216105The second one shows a ripped remnant of the chest layer, it's the cutscene where Elster's ribs are exposed. You can see a pseudo-breast layer on the left side shown by that remnant because that part of her chest is intact.Kinda implies that top layer they walk around is essentially nude. Compare it to standard elster model, here.
Elster has big boobies and Ariane sucks on her perky nipples every day and rubs her vagina on them!
>>4216120Elster has a chest triangle with no nipples
>>4216121I will not listen to your anti boob propaganda.
>>4216054It sucks but i also sorta understand, the devs interact a lot more with the community compared to other developers so people are more willing to respect their wishes and not do things they'd find upsetting>>4216061She had an entire alt account for them but most of them were not archived, the only ones I've seen were of elster sucking ariane's futa cock which I understand is not most people's cup of tea here
>>4216138>futaWhy would you ruin good yuri like that
>>4216140Beats me.I hope someone eventually makes custom high quality models for the girls that can be used for NSFW content so that way people won't be afraid of making animations, breaks my heart knowing we lost an entire library of alexandria
>>4216138Oh. futa? Nvm i dont want to see them after all :/ Damn it. I agree with >>4216140 , it aint even yuri if there's magical cock involved. I'm not transphobic but with fictional shit u can just get rid of the dick like idk man i dont want penis in my signalis yuri
>>4215655>because she failed to keep her promise.>"Leave" ending requires limiting contact, killing as few enemies as possibleAnd since there would be nobody to kill in the uncorrupted site Elster would be locked in the "Leave" ending, forcing a loop.Damn the lore goes deep!
>>4216144Promise doesn't necessarily rely on kills, it's weighted heavily by dying a lot and continuing, getting your ass beat. I took it to mean that Elster shows how determined she is by getting back up and up and up and not letting anything stop her from reaching the Penrose.One anon's theory was that Memory is because by speedrunning you leave such a little impact in Ariane's dream or reality that she can't recognise you with her years of suffering. You didn't make enough waves. Leave is all about hesitation, lingering, talking to NPCs, checking doors, not pursuing your goal.>>4216143>transphobicThe amount of shit trying to push the idea Ariane or Elster as a tranny is beyond tiresomeCan we just have two girls in love, is that too much?
>>4216145i'm under the belief that any drawn porn that has two pussies and 0 cock is the rarest kind of all
>>4216138There were two versions of the animation one was futa one was not
This might be a long shot, but does anyone happen to have a copy of the rose engine booru leak?For context shortly after the game came out people found a booru hosted on the rose engine website with a bunch of art drawn by the devs and their friends, some of it is signalis stuff and others are their other projects that had tangential influence on signalisPic related is one of the drawings from it by one of their friends from 2018 seemingly based on an earlier draft of the story where rebecca liang and corrupted adler would've had more significance in the story (which is made more plausible by the cut adler fight in the files)I found a link to an archive of it uploaded to anonfiles but that site went under a while ago so it's a dead end
>>4216456Just to clarify you mean this, rightSaving over a gig of signalis shit autistically might've come in useful for once
>>4216488Yes that's the one

>>4216512pic of "lilith" looks like elster..? who is utpr? there was going to be a planet named carcosa!? cool.
>>4216576UTPR is a noncanon replika based on a character of their friend who drew some stuff for them. They did a webcomic collab with said person. Carcosa is a KIY reference, along with Yith and yuggoth being related to lovecraft. Lilith was just fanart/concept of a combat engineer unit. Also Lilith Itou was one of Alina's squadmates in game. Unclear if she's the girl with Alina in the photo, who is Elster's gestalt.
>>4216584>Unclear if she's the girl with Alina in the photoShe is. She's also the mother of the Itou twins we don't see in the game.
>>4216587She's not their mother, Anja Itou is. You can find an email to the blockwart confirming this. It was originally signed just 'Itou', and referring to her daughters, and then edited in a patch to say anja.I thought I was going nuts remembering both versions until I found screenshots.
Original version for reference.
>>4216588Who's Lilith Itou, then?
>>4216634could be anyone, ariane has a lot of unnamed yeong relatives. or she could be elster. I think the fact that we don't know for certain is deliberate, as only Elster would know who she was, but she doesn't care anymore, Ariane matters more to her than her past now.
>>4216634A Vinetan soldier who was in the same squad as Alina Seo. Possible relative of the Itous, maybe an aunt or distant cousin. May or may not be the name of the soldier in the photo with Alina (and thus the neural pattern for LSTR units).
>>4216634Aside from what >>4216584already mentioned we don't know her exact relationship to the twins, given the age difference she's likely either a much older cousin or their auntWhile she's not confirmed to be the girl in the photo/elster's gestalt it fits for a couple reasons>reinforces the alina/ariane parallels further by having lilith and her genetic expy be an important person in their lives along with the common thread of being connected to the itous>reference to the lilith from kabbalah mysticism in line with the other supernatural imagery in the game which is fitting for the nature of elster's existence >yet another evangelion reference in the game
>>4216661i think the itous are in the game because erika was turned into a replika and isa was waiting for her to die but isa waited too long. She happened to be a friend of ariane, thats why elster cares for herbut i mean nothing is concrete, we all have our own ideas of what the meanings are behind all of iti just dont think theres a definitive answer to these questions is all
>>4216634I don't have answers. I've seen people debate even with Yuri taking notice of whether the girl with Alina is Anna Huang or Lilith Itou based on the name order on the photo and things like the butterfly room and Alina's case. Some think the room you get one of the cards in on rotfront is related to the butterfly case Alina had with the radio on it. There's another Huang listed in Serpinski's records IIRC, one of the updates added photos for some of the gestalt prisoners. The only person we know of Alina's platoon who is definitely not dead or in a gulag is Rebecca Liang, as she has medical records showing her on Rotfront at the same time Ariane was, which is post-Vinetan conquest according to a newspaper in the same area. Even if it's all Ariane's memories.I kinda hate loredumping/explaining shit in this thread because I feel I should be posting cute smut of Ariane. Also realising i've never seen any of Erika/Isa despite that one artist having ahuge thing for that pairing.
>>4216122>>4216121>>4215695A friend of the devs drew this at some point, if it's any consolation.
>>4216730He seems to draw a lot of fanart for the game (and a lot of it is yuri too), nice to see him so supportive of his friends
>>4216808So cute~
>>4216726This character looks an awful lot like Alex Z./ Yuri Stern does in real life. I wonder..? Wholesome self insert?
>>4216835I haven't any recent photos of what yuri looks like IRL, but if anyone is meant to be yuri's self insert I reckon its the character from >>4209603 with the exact same damn name
>>4216835Unclear. She was meant to feature a lot more in game, possibly in that replika morgue you find at the mine. Look at the background figures. Medical database refers to her as a retired replika technician. All we know is she had a bigger role up to the point of art and cutscenes, one of the paintings/vinyls on Ariane's bed has her photo as a little easter egg/reused asset.The cut content/development files I have are interesting as hell really.
>>4216553in fairness its hard to say if that really was alina or if it was just a different alina that arians mind powers created due to her original obsession
I figured Signalis enjoyers might be interested in this new indie game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pCcVRYbLycNow I should mention, there's not much info about the plot (only gameplay) so I can't say if it will have yuri like Signalis. But I did see the director chatting about Signalis and the lead artist draws yuri, so...fingers crossed?
>>4216726>>4216660>>4216661Just want to point out that the naming order on the photo was also changed in an update. Originally people assumed that the order was based on rank. On the photo Alina outranked Elster's gestalt which would fit Lilith's position on the list, but not Anna's. Now it's in alphabetical order.I don't see any reason for the change other than to debunk the Lilith is Elster theory.
>>4217101this seems pretty straightforward . Theory crafters for this game really need to familiarize themselves with Occam's razor.
>>4216945Woah that looks cool, thanks for the heads up.
>>4217101>>4217236Rather than "debunking" the Lilith = Elster's Gestalt theory outright, I think the change was made purely to add more ambiguity to her identity rather than there being a more obviously "correct" answer. Obsessing over her name and trying to draw spurious conclusions based on it was clearly something the devs wanted to curb, but there really isn't any reason why she couldn't be Lilith any more than why she couldn't be Anna or anyone else on that list (except, of course, Rebecca and Alina).In the end, Elster's Gestalt's name doesn't really matter, least of all to Elster herself.
>>4217101Fun trivia of the day: the name of Alina's unit here (Einheit 12) is also the name of Yuri's old deviantart account
>>4217101>>4217327You wonder if he kicks himself for adding an itou and making people theorycraft, because it feels weird to have a mention of an Itou and not have it be relevant. Who did the photos belong to? Was Anja receiving them from family? How old were they?>>4216902I think the fact there were serpinski records of Alina including an ID and contraband, that she went there. Military veterans in the soviet union after ww2 were often shipped to gulags due to 'contamination by western ideals'.>>4217327I suppose the question is why she was searching for Alina. Was Alina important to her gestalt? Was it a degradation memory? Did she bond closer to Ariane because they looked so alike and Ariane accidentally unlocked her old memories?Maybe answers to any of this would be unsatisfying.
What I want to know is this - which model of Replika is the biggest Yuri slut?Money is on the Eules. Just something about them screams, "Would open legs for as little as 20 Rationmarks and half a packet of cigarettes."
>>4217469eule or arar.. I feel like arar have the potential to be horny as hell
>>4217469Eules play music to make up for all the sound of orgies. Those lights, that mirror and how close the bunks are? You know they go at it like rabbits.
I wish there was literally any official merch aside from the soundtrack vinyl

>>4217680I didn't even know they had any sealed copies, I'd looked...the fuck is a sniffer plush
>>4217685Sniffer is just the name people give to a chibi version of the enemy storches
>>4217694>Eventually, I got sick, too.
>>4217680Are EN copies really hard to find around? I wanted a PS4 copy mainly for the lenticular photo and got that at a local GameStop
>>4217715The JP copies are harder as they were released before EN version. The EN version just has th ephoto, the JP version had a lot more.I managed to get the photo and send two spare copies to friends.
>>4216726Some jp artists like ariane/isa

You needed someone to blame, so you cast it on me, your dead waifu. I know the truth is hard to hear Elster, but it's time..you're all that's left.

Just finished it friends. Now I'm depressed.
>>4225288What ending you get?Did you find the star and eule in the mines, and the mynah?Are you still looking for answers? You're gonna carry that weight.
>>4225298I got the Promise ending. Might replay it again on survival soon. Game has been on my mind constantly over the few days I spent playing it after work.
>>4225919Ate me for a while too. After a week of struggling to have it not eat my every waking thought whenever I tried to think of anything else, I broke apart like wet paper. I don't know why. There's a secret ending you can only get after beating it once, but...You might not like what you find...Here's a tip for survival since thread ded. The more you die, the more health you get. Consider it a frustration feature. You can flip Elster's psych profile to see.And one last thing. Everything was doomed before we even started. She was dead the second she stepped on Penrose-512. We can't save anyone.
>>4225298spike dies
>>4226145>you might not like what you findIf anything, I'd argue artifact leaves the biggest possibility for happiness but the thread's too close to death for me to go in depth on my thoughts why
>>4215962Where can I find the last two animations? Idgaf about the futa
>>4226164Maybe, but it's so up to interpretation it's hard to say definitively...the fuck is Elster wearing anyway
>>4226145I'm actually legitimately depressed now. I don't want to play anything else. I don't want to do anything. I've bought 4 games on Steam in the last couple of days and refunded them all because everything just feels shit now.
>>4226457It'll pass, eventually. It's gonna live rent-free a while, but it'll pass.And buying shit on steam and never playing it is MO for a lot of people anyway. You are going to spend a lot of time theorycrafting and wondering about little details, for example.>Did you realise the solar system is our own, Sol>the little eyes and graffiti in Ariane's room, and the changed descs on the second visit>Nowhere lines up with Penrose's floor plan and rooms match other locations>Isa was bullied hard and froze up when she found Ariane being beaten up, Erika saved them both, and this destroyed their friendship>The penrose poster in the train>the KIY in the beach sequence>the dance music plays if you linger in ariane's ruined penrose quarters>if you get close to Kolibri, you start seeing the isle of the dead painting and related text>the false ending flashback shows what happened to Vineta
>>4226386It's a strap, the magpie's gotta please her wife somehow>>4226564Is the girl placing the lilies at the memorial meant to be rebecca?The hair looks vaguely like her loops and it'd make sense with her being one of the two survivors from the unit
>>4226584It's unclear. It's the same gravesite in the artifact ending. It makes you wonder who the girl in the dress is, she's only filenamed as 'Maedchen' for woman, that one you mentioned is 'graeber', the others are flugzeuge, der stern, wolke, soldaten, auge. >strapI had a flashback to stumbling into a fic that started well into it blurted out about ariane being an MTF tranny and how strapons reminded her of 'her dick' and I noped the fuck out[compartmentalising trauma]
>>4226601If rose engine really wants to milk signalis without messing with the main story they could easily do a prequel set during the war, lots of untapped potential that could expand on the setting moreTag exclusions are your best friend.
>>4226623It wasn't tagged. Nothing in the desc at all, no tags, no warnings. Just straight up >elster just blurting that shit out remember you were a dudeI dunno what was worse, that or the one whose desc was a tranny STAR NTRing Elster by breaking into penrose and fucking Ariane. The fuck is wrong with the 'community'?As for the war, the files and stuff in game suggest that Eusan [Empire] Held it, Eusan [Nation] Took it after a bloody conflict that ended with nuclear exchange and extreme flooding to the point the Moon is partially cracked. Eusan [Nation] holds it for now but the Empire is blockading it and intercepting convoys. Not that any of that might matter anymore if Ariane really did warp reality
So I messed around a bit with ending requirements and it looks like the whole "Don't heal to get Promise ending" thing is just fake. From what I tested if you use enough regen healing items it'll give you a point towards Promise ending. Using instant heals does absolutely nothing to affect getting a point or not. But always being at blue health gives you a Leave point instead. Does make sense to me that those give their respective points but what I can't figure out at all is the implication of why going fast gives you a Leave point and going slow gives you a Promise point. It makes more sense to me for it to be the opposite, is there something about it I'm not taking into consideration?
>>4226798Everyone got their own theories, anon. You'd have to ask Yuri really. I like the theory that speedrunning stops you making enough of an impression, because you swooce past most enemies. I got promise first try because I played on survival difficulty and just kept going despite a shit ton of deaths.
>>4226798>don't heal to get promiseNobody told me.
