We already know from the 2 most recent earning presentations that the stellar blade sequel is releasing inside fiscal year 2026 or early fiscal year 2027. It will come out q1-q3 of 2027. Relax, we have probably a year or less to go. Evie is perfect, I understand.

It's an ineffable quality. When you look at her, you can just see instinctively she's oozing with it. Must be hard being a hylic with no sense for these things, I'm sorry for you anon.

It's a gacha syndrome too. In many gacha you'll notice that younger hebe characters tend to be a lot more animated than "mature" characters. Like take genshin impact for example. Compare characters like Hu Tao, Yoimiya, Furina, Sandrone, etc. to the likes of Jean, Ningguang, Yae, etc. It's as if that when making an older woman her only personality is being mature where as younger characters are allowed to be quirky.
>>
>>741334906
Thats true of real life too though? Mature women with personalities are unbearable annoying fucks who ruin everything they touch but its cute when a younger person acts quirky because they are still immature. That's not really gatcha syndrome, its just women.

"Action-adventure Stellar Blade will receive a sequel before 2027, according to SHIFT UP's recent financial report. One page specifically states that 'Platform Expansion' and 'Sequel' are planned for the Stellar Blade IP, with the right column showing the year 2027... This suggests that the sequel is likely to be released before the end of 2026 [or early 2027]."

"One of the biggest highlights from the report is that both the next Stellar Blade game and future titles from Shinji Mikami's studio UNBOUND will be self-published directly by SHIFT UP. The move marks a major shift for the company as it expands beyond game development and strengthens its role as a global publisher."

"The report added that Shift Up explicitly noted to investors that moving the franchise to a first-party publishing model would leverage their established global fanbase to maximize commercial success from day one, laying down a structured multi-platform production pipeline to hit their quality and timeline targets."

From the 2025 and 2026 earning reports. It's literally early 2027, you can't go by westoid standards. Asians pump games out in 2-3 years.

That and they already have existing assets from the first game. Making sequels while being in the same generation is and should be easier than making a new IP from scratch. Most of the npcs in the Blood Rain trailer for example are just tweaked npcs from SB1.

I'd rather a 2-3 year asset flip of a good game then wait 5-8 years for some westoid slop with no gameplay. You know that's how good games are made, what do you think every game in the golden era was. Or why every formsoft game just uses the same animations and assets. That shit isn't important if the gameplay is fun.

Finished the game last night and then just finished beating the Nikkie collab boss in the boss rush.

Fuck everyone who said the combat starts to open up and be more freeflowing as the game goes on and you get more options. You're still forced to sit there, wait for the enemy to do their attack string, simon says the finisher if they're doing a shorter string that leads to a unparrayable, and then press your punish button. If you dare to do something like use the gap close teleport attack on anything of the later bosses, most notably the mecha suit, they'll be starting up a ranged attack that now you have to time the dodge on the attack animation, which is insanely fast, instead of the slow projectiles that the attack is designed around dodging. The only thing that changes as you get more skills is the punish moves from a regular attack string, to a beta attack, to a burst attack sometimes and betas other.

The game as hard carried by the music, surprisingly good animation work, and visual design to be a solid 8/10; Adam's voice actor should be murdered in particular for being incapable of selling a single moment, and it's otherwise "we have Nier at home" outside of the combat managing to feel way fucking worse then A Tomato's despite the fact that Tomato's was super simplistic. Best moment by far was when you were thrown out of the space station and you have the pant shitting moment of "how the fuck am I going to fight that" only for it to be ruined with the deus ex machina railgun and it just be a trivial "click on the flashing button" section, but everything after that was so fucking downhill and stupid that I just wanted to be done. Shout out to Raven's fight for the devs just going "oh, these moves are good, let's just not let the players use them" without stopping me from just having her spend half the fight on her ass from the ranged wave beta attack and ground pound burst.

They clearly got some feedback with how they said that Eve being such a paper cutout wasn't good and that the MC needs to actually have some character, which would be a good step to telling a decent story by getting me to be invested in the characters rather then dreading every time they try to talk.

Sounds like a skill issue, genuinely. I was surprised at how much the combat felt better as the game went on.
But I also never fuckin used blade beam beta attack.

I played in Korean. Thought he was good, everyone was really. I actually cant stand most of them in English though.
>>741339556
They did say they felt those aspects could have been better (Story/Characters) so I'm sure they will improve on them. Funny because having just finished the game I really enjoyed it. Its not perfect, and you can see the hard NieR inspiration from a lot of things, but I don't think it was bad by any means.
>>
>>741339707
Enemies started to be more aggressive and have less downtime, which did feel better then the early bosses where you'd have awkward stareoffs, but the combat flow didn't change at all beyond going faster and then the ability to iframe with the burst animations if you really didn't want to deal with a string in particular.

>>741339814
Nta but being able to spam beta skills and burst skills is changing the game flow. Early game SB is extremely passive and defensive. Not so when you have fully upgrade gears and exospines that allows you to spam moves.
If you find the normal strings too slow, you can also just slap speed gears since the attack speed buff stacks up.

I enjoyed the game enough that I did take the time to go beat the Nikkie boss after finishing, but I wanted to call out all the retards who said that the demo wasn't representative of how the combat, especially the second boss fight in it where you've got most of the abilities but no bursts or Tacy mode. The animation locks on your part, combined with the fact that late game regular strings are only good for generating beta and burst meter instead of actually dealing damage themselves, and the insane amount of damage that the late game bosses do mean that pressing attack is almost never a good thing to do unless you've played the game for hundreds of hours and know how to manipulate the AI. The amount of beta energy you get for a parry and burst you get for a dodge, much less a special dodge, is way too high compared to the amount of damage and energy you get for a a regular string to where it's just not worth being aggressive.

>>741339949
Maybe if I'd not somehow missed the Beta exospine so you can occasionally get a billion free beta attacks on a trance proc which make it your turn against most bosses with either the hitstun on the triple thrust or the knockdown on the beam blade, I'd feel different, but even then it's just the occasional "my turn into my turn into my turn" instead of fundamentally changing the combat. Also, not either maxing or wiping burst and beta energy on rest/death in the campaign was a personal quibble but completely retarded with how it meant you could go farm before going into boss fights with a full set of resources while being disincentivized to use them on a bad run to try and recover instead of just accepting the wipe and having a better start on the next attempt.

You're the retard for believing retards instead of your own eyes. You played the demo, but trusted anons instead of yourself. What made you want to believe there was much more to the game than what the demo showed you?

You're also complaining that the game gets too hard for you to do anything but simplest of strategies, but that it's also too boring when you do it that way. If you wanted a challenge, it was there. If you didn't want a challenge, then you can take the easy way out. Maybe you just didn't like the game.

Because if you did enjoy the game, you sure as hell don't sound like it. Could you perhaps change your tone a bit and stop sounding like someone who was forced to play the video game and start sounding like someone who did actually enjoy it?

Demos are just that, there's a ton that don't spoil mid and late game combat which in some games does change heavily as you start to get more options beyond the generic buttons, and so anon's opinions that it does get more open was worth listening to because they're right about some games.

Do you think criticism means that I hate it? Are you a 12 year old who's never been exposed to someone dissecting what's good and bad about something before? Even in your example webm of someone who's clearly spent way too long playing the game and is a master not only of the combat system but also knows exactly what strings can be punished with how many attacks, something that's not intuitive on first playthroughs, thirty seconds of nonstop gunfire and normal attacks have barely chipped her shields down, and maybe earned 1 extra beta attack's worth of energy. The gamplay suffers heavily from the problem of defensive options being so much more rewarding then offensive ones, and I'd like to see them balanced better in the future so there's more of a reason to bother pressing attack once you start to get better buttons, to incentivize and reward playing aggressively instead of promoting passive gameplay instead. MGR and Sekiro also put a heavy emphasis on parry systems, but also rewarded you for attacking, while in Stellar Blade, the stability bar isn't affect by anything other then specific, energy attacks and perfect parries, which then reward further with energy, so there's no incentive to keep the pressure on the enemy.

>>741341253
But you took the opinions of anons over your own experiences with the demo. Why did you weight the opinions of anons more than your own with the demo? Did you even specially ask anyone about how you felt the combat in the demo was too closed off and that you would want the combat system to open up later and to what degree you would want it to open up? Or did you just take a simple response of "Yes, it opens up later."

Of your posts so far, I'd say your praise to criticism ratio is 1:10. You're not dissecting what's good and bad about the game. You're mostly dissecting what's bad. Which is fine, if you didn't like the game. It would make more sense if you didn't like the game. Because you've offered so little praise of it, it's hard to tell you actually enjoyed it. In fact, the only thing that tells me you may have enjoyed it is that you played through the game.

But there's a type of gamer that likes to play through games just to dissect them. They don't seem to actually have fun with the experience the games want to offer. They're just another puzzle for the player to break apart and then bitch and moan about in an exercise to show how well they understood the mechanics of the game. Because you clearly understand how the game's mechanics work, that's not in doubt. But I can't tell if you actually had any "fun".

As for your criticism, the game is too defensive for you, unless you end up putting way too much time into a game you apparently liked. Because who likes spending a lot of time with a video game they liked? So, the combat isn't to your liking. They may change that in the sequel. But it doesn't sound like you liked the combat in the first game. Which is fine. You're not the first person who's ever complained about Stellar Blade's combat system and its lack of offensive incentives.

Yea, why would someone like a game enough to want to finish a 30 hour main campaign playthrough but have been burnt out by the boss rush at the end with Democ into Raven into Mechasuit and then the optional Nikkie in the boss rush menu, which really serve to highlight the flaws in the combat system as it's pushed to it's limits, but not love the game so much they want to spend hundreds of hours mastering said combat system to the point they can dance around the bosses, especially when they note in their first post that the game's best parts are the music and visual spectacles, which will have nothing new. Do you think people who don't replay the Deadspace sections time and time again until they're able to instantly 1 tap the explosive bags on every enemy's waists on spawn don't like the game, or are you capable of understanding that you can enjoy certain aspects of a game while disliking other parts.

Cause it doesn't sound like you liked the game much. If you got burnt out by it by the end, then you only liked it for a while and apparently you only liked the music and the spectacle. So, what you do for most of the game, fighting shit, left a bad taste in your mouth. Overall, I'd say you did not like the game. Not sure why you can't come to that conclusion yourself.

>or are you [in]capable of understanding that you can enjoy certain aspects of a game while disliking other parts.
I am capable of understanding that. But based on your posts and your testimony so far of your experience with the game, I cannot understand how you think you enjoyed the game. Because the normal response from someone who enjoys a video game experience is probably going to be mostly praise. That's normal.

Someone who has spent half a dozen posts, each of which almost reached max character post limit, and has only shared maybe 3 sentences of praise does not sound like someone who enjoyed the game. Which, again, is fine. You don't have to enjoy it. Not everyone will and not everyone should.

And if you admitted you did not enjoy the game, I would genuinely suggest you find a game that you do like. One that makes you want to sing its praises. Because that joy in your heart that the game gave you would pour out to anyone you could share it with. That's what a fun, enjoyable video game experience does to someone.
>>
>>741342341
>So, what you do for most of the game, fighting shit, left a bad taste in your mouth

Because the earlier bosses were better done because the defensive options weren't as strong since you didn't have burst meter to generate nor all the upgrades for beta attacks, while the bosses' health wasn't balanced around meter attack spam but instead your regular attacks, so beta attacks felt powerful but not the only button worth pressing. The hammer nigger in the sewers, and especially the optional bossfight in the oil refinery area were the sweet spot where the bosses felt the best to fight because you could get aggressive on them without getting so massively punished compared to the reward you got for hitting them with your sword, while beta attacks weren't your sole way to deal damage but instead a powerful fuck off button while the bosses weren't so slow that you'd have staredowns like earlier bosses but not so fast like later ones where if you weren't dealing hitstun, you were likely to be mid attack when they start their swing. Even with a fully upgraded sword, the scaling on the bosses was way too high compared to your normal attack damage because of the insane damage dealt out by the meter attacks and how easy it was to generate said energy because bosses started to spam multi-hit strings which meant massive beta energy generation guaranteed because you died if you fucked up the parries on them anyway.

I finished the game despite the combat devolving, instead of evolving, as the game went on because I wanted to finish it and see all the set pieces, as well as the music. I was also hoping the plot wasn't going to be so generic and nonsensical, with Lily especially being a drooling fucking idiot about Adam's true identity and how she was coming to terms with Mother Sphere being evil.

I'd be fine if the combat system in BR changed and wasn't as defensive as SB. Whether by adding more of a brawler feel or more aggressive tactics, that's fine. But that comes with trade-offs. There are always trade-offs.

There's no perfect combat system. If you move towards Sekiro, you can't be DMC. If you move towards Nioh, you can't be Bloodborne. You can never make a combat system that everyone will like. Instead, there can be different combat systems that co-exist and offer different experiences. All of them can be fun in their own way. It would be boring if they all tried to copy each other.

But that also means as an individual gamer, you may not enjoy all of them. If you didn't, that would be normal. For some people, they can appreciate all the differences in those competing combat systems but only if they learn to play the games on the game's terms. Working to understand the systems and mechanics as they were designed and to see what the designers were trying to accomplish. Even then, players will have their preferred combat systems.

Stellar Blade's combat system does the same thing as all the other combat systems and makes trade offs. It wants to be flashy with long animations, which makes the game feel stiff. It only has one weapon that reduces player choice. It focuses a lot on parrying/dodging and timing rather than combo execution which gives a Simon Says feel and reduces player expression. It could've change all those elements, but then it would end up feeling different. Maybe for the better, but also maybe for the worst.

It's fair to point out the failings of Stellar Blade's combat system because it's not perfect and because there are other combat systems to compare it to, but it's also fair to point out that it works for what it seems to be trying to accomplish. And the experience it provided has won over some fans, even if it wasn't the best combat system ever.

Why does it sound like you were scared of dying towards the end of the game? Didn't you have fun learning the boss fights? Leaning all their moves so you would be able to nail every parry, every dodge, learn every window where you could attack and learn how long you could attack during that window? Did you run out of time at the end of the game and needed to finish it up or did the burn out already set in and you were trying to finish it faster instead of taking your time to learn the fights properly?

>with Lily especially being a drooling fucking idiot about Adam's true identity
Was Lily supposed to have realized Adam's true identity before he revealed it at the Nest? I don't understand what's confusing you.
>and how she was coming to terms with Mother Sphere being evil.
Lily only ever comes to terms with MS being "evil" during her bad ending. Otherwise, she's a saltwart defending MS, keeping her faith with her god for almost the entirety of the game, as well as acting as MS' de facto representative to EVE while Adam represented the being on the surface, both AE and Naytiba a like.

Adam fucked off because he had to go to Zion, yet when we show up, he's not in Zion, not!Raven talks about HIM getting close to Eve before the fight, pretty sure she says something even more damning after the reveal as well but I don't really remember, Orcale is revealed to be an Alpha Natiba, and then she tracks Adam's bike to the nest. Yet despite all this, she needs fucking Eve to tell her that Adam is the Elder.

I don't agree with his stance on it there, but I also am not as extremely anti-AI as a whole as many leftoids.
I think its fine to automate some tasks, help fill in a texture or something. Things like that. I know they probably use it in this game to an extent, and I've seen some places where I'm *fairly* sure they did in SB1 like on a poster or two in the cities.
But I think actual art, even hentai shit, is just better from a person in most instances. Looks less generic, and yes I actually do think the skill it takes to create art makes it better.
No I'm not artistically skilled myself
Also just don't think handing over the soul of human creativity to a machine that runs on reddit algos will be good for humanity as a whole, even if it pisses of western leftists. There are other ways to make them mad.

You figuring it out isn't the same thing as the characters figuring it out. Does it make sense that Lily did not put any of those points together to realize Adam was the Elder Naytiba before the nest? Let's see.

>Adam fucked off to Zion but he's not in Zion
After spending most of the game building trust with both EVE and Lily, Adam is part of their "family". They're worried about him. A sneaking suspicion cannot be acted upon until further evidence clearly provided, because Adam had become a trusted member of their family by then. They're more worried about him than suspicious.

>Unidentified Naytiba/Raven speaks about Adam
Why would EVE/Lily trust her? She just massacred the only "human" settlement on the surface they've known. EVE and Lily have also spent much of the game helping the NPCs in the city while also rebuilding it. Bringing it hyperdrives and repopulating the town. Neither EVE nor Lily will believe a word UN/Raven says after she's committed such an atrocity.

>Oracle is an Alpha Natiba
Which is not a clear cut case. Oracle has behaved very human-like for most of the game. Despite being an AN, he's more human than monster. In fact, his story is that of someone who was trying to seek redemption for his past crimes. He's about as "human" as they get. A sympathetic character that gained the trust of EVE and Lily over the course of the game as both leader of Xion and guide/sage/wise man.

>Adam's bike at the nest
Which only makes things obvious after the fact has been revealed. It's still not absolutely clear Adam is the Elder Naytiba. Circumstantial evidence rather than direct evidence, which Adam provides at the Nest.

You figured it out before the characters did, but the way the game's story is laid out, that's kind of how it was supposed to work. Clues scattered around the entire game tell you much more than the characters would ever get to incorporate into the story and as part of their dialogue before the player would figure it out.

Eve figured it out, and yet Lilly doesn't even act like she's in denial while refusing to confront what she knows, but full on is surprised by it when fucking confronting him face to face after the bike and Raven's second conversation about serving him. The writing for her in particular was fucking atrocious, with wildly inconsistent things like her being trapped in a drop pod to then having her have lived in the city for a long time with her secret garden and fallen comrade, the huge emphasis she makes on connecting to the NETWORK to pass on memories and the truth only to completely forget about it, and so on.

The game started out strong, had an fairly amazing midpoint with the sewers, the labs revealing things that were pretty easy to guess if you did the side content but still was interesting, the city section with the roller coasters was amazing with how much it rewarded exploration, and then the space elevator being a really cool setpiece and also fun to play through, but both open world sections were complete wastes and then everything after Eve comes back from orbit was fucking terrible with the only highlight being the nice reveal of the beauty of the inside of the nest for the first time.

EVE suspected. That's not quite the same thing as figured it out. You could argue it wasn't until she was confronting Adam in the Nest that she put it all together. She never proclaimed Adam was the EN before that point.

Lily is a support unit. Outside of her faith in Mother Sphere, she depends on both Adam and EVE, mostly EVE, for their judgement. For example, Lily advises EVE from taking Adam's hand, but after she does, Lily comes around to the idea. Lily becomes increasingly attached to EVE and slowly replaces her faith in Mother Sphere for her faith in EVE. Lily is a dependent rather than an independent thinker and leader. That's EVE's role.

>and Raven's second conversation about serving him.
Again, Raven's testimony is creditless. She has no credibility after what she did to Xion.

>The writing for her in particular was fucking atrocious, with wildly inconsistent things like her being trapped in a drop pod to then having her have lived in the city for a long time with her secret garden and fallen comrade,
That was a flaw in the dialogue. If you interpret it as Lily was in the pod for 2 years, it doesn't make much sense, even if the dialogue implied that. It makes more sense to think Lily has been on the surface for 2 years.

>the huge emphasis she makes on connecting to the NETWORK to pass on memories and the truth only to completely forget about it, and so on.
The Network is important in the lore, but it's inaccessible until Adam is gone, because he was blocking the Network. But that wasn't Lily's big thing in the game. Her thing was being the Mother Sphere representative in EVE's journey of discovery and truth seeking throughout the game, while Adam represented the people of the surface and the Naytiba. Both spoke to EVE to try and persuade her of the goodness of their causes/points of view. Lily tried to keep EVE tied to the Colony while Adam tried to groom her to accept his hand.

Now you're sounding like someone who liked the game. Yea, a lot of people complained about the deserts. I liked them and liked how they differed in level design. One felt like a metroidvania with clearly delineated paths and unlockable short cuts. The other felt like a modern open world area where you could go in any direction and interact with points of interest.

The ending section was arguably rushed. Some people have pointed out that Destroyed Xion may have been a level/dungeon before arriving at the Presence Chamber. Personally, I liked the boss rush feel of the end of the game. The boss fights being one of the best parts of the game, it felt like banger after banger after banger. But given your complaints about the combat towards the end, I can understand why you would find it to be one of the worse experiences of the game.

Orcal was seen by no one in Xion, including Lily and Eve. He literally showed up out of no where they say.
Adam found him, and basically saved him and helped him refind himself after being a fucked up first Alpha Naytiba.

We don't know Orcal massacred a bunch of people. He's a potential suspect, or rather Mann is, but the game leaves it ambiguous.

You are missing the point of how people start to trust others, dumbass. I know its intentional though just to stir shit.
But if you meet a stranger and become close with him over the course of months; or in the case of the people of Xion itself years, then later come to learn that person was a murderer. You are going to be much more understanding of their change and ability for kindness than you would be of a person you literally walked in on stabbing multiple people to death.

>>741344720
Raven's Legacies showed her slowly losing her sanity. But again, UN/Raven ends up massacring Xion right in front of EVE. She can see the evidence with her own eyes. And Raven is unrepentant. Even though Raven was an Angel, her actions make her seem more like a monster.

>>741344769
I remember what you're referring to now. His dying words before handing her his Alpha Core. But that confession still makes Orcal seem more human than Naytiba. It would confuse EVE more than convince her Adam was the EN.

>>741344797
the whole end sequence of the game is about betrayal, Eve realized Adam was lying but hoped it was not real, she was not a bit surprised by the reveal. orcal also turned out to be a naytiba, Raven turned out to be one too. at that point Eve shouldn't have trusted anyone, but hey, the guy who looks like a naytiba is okay because we got to know him about 2 days ago!
the point is that if you bring up Raven, then you shouldn't ignore Orcal either

I don't think that was true. She was angry at Adam in the Nest. If she wasn't surprised, she wouldn't have been so angry.

>the point is that if you bring up Raven, then you shouldn't ignore Orcal either

You're missing the nuance. Orcal looked like and acted like a human, or Andro-Eidos, for most of the game. He acted as the leader of the only settlement on the surface that EVE and Lily were trying to help and rebuild. That's a clear relationship of trust with a character that is helping them find the Alpha Naytibas that EVE needs to fight.

When EVE discovers that Orcal is a Naytiba, her relationship with him, proving his humanness, makes her unable to simply declare Orcal is a Naytiba and therefore bad. It blurs the line of what a Naytiba is and what an AE is. Thematically, it touches upon what a "human" is.

Raven juxtaboses Orcal by being an Andro-Eidos and former Airborne Squadron member that behaves more like a monster than a human, bringing up the theme of what a "human" is. To EVE's eyes, Raven would be creditless, while Orcal would still have some of her trust. That's why it makes sense for EVE to ignore what Raven has to say but still be willing to listen to Orcal.

>>741345002
By claiming that everything was a fucking lie and that MS couldn't be trusted, she's already diminishing her credibility. While EVE's faith in MS diminishing throughout the game, Lily is still there to try and keep her on the straight and narrow. EVE wants to believe MS isn't bad and Raven's testimony is in conflict with EVE's training. Raven's Legacies aren't automatically entered into evidence in EVE's mind and by the time EVE finds Xion in ruins, EVE is even less incentivized to believe her.

EVE finds out Orcal's past through his dying confession of long ago sins after growing to trust him. EVE sees the town she helped rebuild, full of people she came to care for, burnt down by Raven's hands.
>>
>>741345260
she wasn't surprised though, why would she be angry only because she was surprised, she wanted it to be not true but she figured it out already for sure

>get to know Orcal for a few days, he behaves like a human then reveals he's a naytiba
>that's totally okay because he's clearly a good boy now

and figuring out Adam was the elder is basically believing what Raven was saying

>>741345260
>she's already diminishing her credibility
except you could find tons of information about what happened, especially in the Levoire dungeons so you could figure out the same that Raven did, hence she was telling the truth. Eve realized this and was angry because everyone was lying and only the bad guy was telling the truth

>>741342269

If she didn't want it to be true, she's hoping it isn't true. Because it would be such a betrayal if it was. That's a surprise. It's not a surprise if she's already accepted it as truth, but she hasn't until EVE confronts Adam in the Nest.

Orcal's relationship with EVE is not the same as Adam's relationship with EVE.

Orcal showed himself to be a responsible leader of Xion and respected elder for the entire game. EVE only discovers the truth about Orcal as he's dying and whatever judgement EVE may have wanted to pass on Orcal was moot since he would soon be dead. And since Orcal's role with EVE is to help her find the Alpha Naytibas so she can get to the Elder Naytiba, Orcal giving her his Alpha Core helps her accomplish that goal. He's aiding her and not being a source of pain or suffering. That's not the same for Adam.

EVE spends the entire game trying to find the Elder Naytiba. Adam, being the Elder Natyiba, is at least half the source of all the suffering on the surface, lied to EVE the entire game about who he really was. EVE can tie every Naytiba death to Adam. Tachy's, any NPC's, even Orcal's since Unidentified Naytiba killed him. Adam became one of EVE's most trusted friends, which made the deception feel like a greater betrayal.

However, the player still has the option to take Adam's hand. And many did. People felt that MS was more responsible for the state of the world than Adam was and so wrote of his betrayal and instead trusted in the relationship Adam had built with EVE, the player, over the course of the game. The trust that Adam cultivated worked to win over many players.

>except you could find tons of information about what happened, especially in the Levoire dungeons so you could figure out the same that Raven did, hence she was telling the truth
YOU, the player, could figure it out. That's not the same thing as EVE the character. This matters, because you, the player, are given a choice at the end of the game whether or not to take Adam's hand. That depends on how much dirt you found about Adam in your playthrough. If, instead, the player only found the bad stuff about Mother Sphere, then they'd be much more inclined to take Adam's hand.

>Eve realized this and was angry because everyone was lying and only the bad guy was telling the truth
EVE was angry at Adam because of how he misrepresented himself, because of how close he and her got, because of being left out of the truth, because of all the suffering she saw that she could attribute to the Elder Naytiba. And that anger is justified. But to say only the bad guy was telling the truth would be wrong.

There's a lot of truth sprinkled around the game and a lot of untruth as well. It's up to the player to figure out what is true or not to help inform them when the player has to decide whether or not take Adam's hand. EVE, the character, has less knowledge than the player, but it is the player that ultimately makes the final choice.

I wonder how if affects you to be 15 and be told everywhere that it's taboo for you to like 15 year olds.
Back when I was 15 no one was freaking out about it. And a character like Evie wouldn't have been controversial.

But seeing an obviously attractive girl and being told you aren't allowed to like her might fuck up some people.

Every piece of Data Bank lore you find in the game, EVE, the character, doesn't necessarily read or incorporate. If she did, then the dialogue and actions that EVE takes throughout the game should change with every bit of lore she picks up or doesn't pick up.

It's like asking which ending is the canon ending? EVE, the character, doesn't relieve her life 3 times and make 3 different choices at the end of her journey. The player plays through the game 3 times to see the 3 different endings. EVE, the character, is unaware of all three endings. She only behaves as if she sees one of them. The player can see all three though and use all three in their interpretation of the game's lore.

Also, it's so fucking late. I'm going to bed. G'night y'all.

In the same way, the collectable lore items that EVE picks up throughout the game aren't necessarily incorporated into EVE's character, but the player can digest all that information to gain a perspective on the game's lore that EVE will never have.

whining faggots aside, I get the story continuation part. The canon ending makes it pretty clear that MS will come back with some new bullshit to take over the world if she ever feels like it. So there is a sequel possibility there of Eve going up against the Colony forces
