Witch Chat - .hack//Gay Undertones

This is where they used the Twlight Shard in an attempt to find the key in Roots

this is also where Alkaid died

iirc (edited)

and where we used the data core to reach Ovan

23:50

it's come up a bunch

23:50

23:50

Really just a bad place in general

Skeith

Really just a bad place in general

right so you can imagine the raw dissonance of a chim chim firework festival taking place here

23:51

Kuhn is depressed...because he got dumped.

23:52

lets...lets just go home

Shaiapouf

I mean cyouni is used to trails endgame and it isn't gonna get that crazy

hahahahaha CS4

23:52

23:52

THE END. NO MORAL

23:53

Piros:

23:53

a girl in a red outfit walks by

23:54

THE END NO MORAL

23:54

at least he's not hitting on third graders this time

23:54

Shaiapouf

at least he's not hitting on third graders this time

don't trip over that bar you set so low

It's been years since Liminality and he hasn't grown up at all

Skeith

It's been years since Liminality and he hasn't grown up at all

He does in fact state that he's still hung up on the main character of Liminality

23:55

which is why he's like this

What happened to Liminality MC?

oh

23:55

she dumped him

She dumped him

and is thriving

snicker good for her

23:55

Sorry, Kuhn.

Haseo are you really gonna say that when you go on quests with Canard to bond with your own friends?

The rare .Hack// protagonist who stops playing the game that made their life hell

oh my god (edited)

23:57

just need haseo to be the girlfriend

23:57

In the .hack//G.U. novels, Tomonari [Kuhn's PC] mentions that he and Mai had continued dating after high school by email and gradually drifted apart as their interests diverged before breaking up. Mai went on to volunteer abroad in places like South Asia and Africa, while Tomonari remained directionless and living in Kanazawa. The breakup had a lasting effect on Tomonari, who years afterward, still regrets messing up his only "real relationship".

23:59

not sure if that was Endora or my own keyboard slip but I blame her

the basic plot of the .hack OVAs is that Kuhn's player gets put in a coma which Mai very narrowly avoids due to having a good ear and realizing something was wrong (essentially she naturally has the skill for detecting danger that Atoli has through her epitaph) and she ends up teaming up with another girl and a older guy who used to code for CC corp and they investigate what caused Kuhn to fall into a coma

23:59

as well as like, why weird shit is happening all over the network in general (aka, Morganna's mental breakdown as Aura's birth and her own death neared) (edited)

Shaiapouf

just need haseo to be the girlfriend

thank you

00:02

anyways

00:02

Unlike the last couple arena plot arcs which spanned a good chunk of the game

Liminality is also where it first clicked for me that "Ooh, Harold's kind of a freak"

we are just getting right into it

crouching tigers hidden matsu

00:03

00:04

more details into why, exactly, Sakaki is getting away with all this

management: "fuck it we're screwed anyways, might as well trust a 10-year old"

00:04

"what could go wrong"

you can kinda see why CC corp bought into it. Sorta.

00:05

That said hell of a lead to be "Look I groomed and manipulated this teenage girl, so surely I can control AIDA too"

00:06

row row fight the company

Honestly I wish we got to see directly what Pi gets up to during this sequence

"remember that time the whole game was an AIDA server, and then it wasn't? I'm the one who's fixed it" -Sakaki, probably

because it sounds like a lot of very complicated business diplomacy

00:07

as we log in we get a scene again. It looks like CC corp is getting fed up with Sakaki now too

00:07

00:08

I wonder how much of it is business-hours diplomacy and after-work getting her co-workers trashed

00:08

CatHerder

I wonder how much of it is business-hours diplomacy and after-work getting her co-workers trashed

why not both

1

00:08

so, that's the other side of the equation

00:09

Sakaki is blackmailing CC corp with making things even worse if he doesn't get his way

do you have to stand on the chain lotus to make it work

honestly, I think so?

00:10

that floating sphere in front of it is basically the controller for the serpent of lore.

you know what would be funny

00:10

if someone locked down this area so no one could get in

00:10

what then, sakaki

00:12

lol no

Antares: lol no

I do kinda wonder what happens exactly if Anteres wins here. Like, this tournament exists purely to torture Haseo but if he loses he's just gonna continue hanging around

00:13

so I guess Sakaki is just stuck like...doing the rest of the tournament kinda dourly

so what would actually happen if Haseo lost in round 1

it's baffling that they were just fine locking Yata's player out of his accounts but can't bring themselves to revoke Sakaki's permissions and IP ban him

CatHerder

it's baffling that they were just fine locking Yata's player out of his accounts but can't bring themselves to revoke Sakaki's permissions and IP ban him

presumably being an AIDA PC prevents this

is Yata actually locked out?

00:13

I thought they just kicked him out of the admin support group
