The game is fun but what the FUCK is happening?Why is toyko consumed by a blood ocean? Why does Brad turn into a supernova when you kill him?What in God's name is "birth model"?
The answer to all these questions is "Evangelion"
>>12392607>The answer to all these questions is "Evangelion"hmm... i guess
>>12392605if you include the sequel, the story becomes peak schizoretard kino
>>12392818>schizoretard kinomy favorite
>>12392605Only plot point im aware of, is the Ruffians were some kind of lab grown meat suppy that mutated and went murderous.
>>12392605Everything happens because of Achi's blood. >Why does Brad turn into a supernova when you kill him?Achi gave Brad her blood. He kills himself to prevent his transformation.>Why is toyko consumed by a blood ocean? Brad gave Kachua his blood. The blood's latent abilities awakens when someone is close to death and transforms them into a biological weapon. Kachua transformed to the massive rampaging monster you fought in the second stage. Since Saki has also been given Achi's blood, he also transformed to fight her. >What in God's name is "birth model"It's a spawner for Ruffians.
This is a game I kept reading about since the early 00s and then when I finally got to play it it met and surpassed expectation. Just splendid.
>>12394084>when I finally got to play it it met and surpassed expectation. Just splendid.that's such a wonderful feeling
What fucking crack were they on when they made this game
>>12394906Probably shrooms, they were still legal in Japan in the year 2000
>>12394084same for me. I played the sequel first despite being a Treasure fan since Mischief Makers. for some reason this game was really hard to find when it released on the N64, or maybe I just had the shittiest luck. I even got an NTSC-J converter cart just for this game that went unused for years lol.
>>12392605Sometimes not knowing is better
>>12392605I'm pretty sure the director/writer of Sin and Punishment also made Alien Soldier.Incomprehensible nonsense stories were apparently his style, I mean look at this absolute bullshit right here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irnSmHqpWJ0And if you think any of this is elaborated upon later during the game, then you are sorely mistaken.
>>12397524>4+ minutes for the introfucking movie games
>>12397524look at this absolute bullshit right here instead:https://mdshock.com/2024/04/12/the-incredibly-bizarre-plot-of-alien-soldier-finally-explained/>Treasure president Maegawa said that no one who worked on the game aside from Suganami could understand more than half of the story.What I got is that it was supposed to be a love story between a boy and a girl who both have no sexual organs. I got this from google though, no sources.

>>12395341god that level is so fucking cooltreasure understood spectacle like no one else
>>12397987site doesn't work, no archive link either
>>12398103>they follow that up with a shitty train and a walk through the local parkfor WHAT fucking purposeshould've swapped those chapters so that you end up fighting earth 2.0 after the satellite. i would cum
>>12397524Cool game but I didn't follow any of that opening text crawl>>12397556That is crazy for a Genesis title
>>12398330Works for me
>>12397987Holy shit, that just makes it even more convoluted.>What I got is that it was supposed to be a love storyFunnily enough, that was my first takeaway when playing Sin and Punishment, combined with "I don't know WHAT the hell is going on"
>>12397987>Sin & Punishment is in a way, a spiritual sequel to alien soldierwow
>>12392605For some reason, at some point Treasure's storyline became just a bunch of unfiltered fever dreams and stream-of-consciousness intrusive thoughts. Bangai-O's story is also completely schizophrenic.
>>12399804>at some pointyeah, right when the studio was founded
Anyone read the manga?
this thread made me play through it again and I kinda feel for Bradhe gives a speech to rally his men, seems genuinely attached to his allies, and does his best to protect them
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqyb4VIb4LII'm playing on Mupen64 and it always gets choppy at Polestar and Larva Seemer but this guy's gameplay is really smooth. Is it on real hardware?
Radan and Leda used to be humans but Achi's Blood turned them into beastsThe others with the blood like Brad managed to retain their form through sheer willpower
>>12399758Pretty much all Treasure games are spiritual sequels to each other, some more so than others.Sure, the studio swore off making direct sequels for the first 10 years of their existence, but boy did they love iterating and remixing things.
