this is actually more or less the last we see of Gabi, unless he shows up in Vol 4

lets check the wiki to see who he really is
22:40
Gabi's real name is Daijirou Washio (鷲尾大治郎). He is a novelist under the pen name Shoutarou Mayuzumi (黛正太郎), and a retired professor of cultural anthropology. He began playing The World after retiring, because the idea of a society unlike any in the real world intrigued him.

honestly if you actually go back and look at how he acts and how he views kestral, it being a weird old guy's sociology experiment makes perfect sense.

Avatar
Shaiapouf 23-May-22 10:44 PM
yeah I do think one of the things .hack really has going for it is a lot of really interesting ideas about the types of people who are Online and why
22:45
it's why the character drama in GU is, on the whole, really engaging
22:45
I do not think most of these guys really get what is going on but on well

okay, onward, to the next dungeon
22:53
okay that one was very fast actually
22:53
so lets get to the last one for tonight
22:54
this last Lost Ground should be familiar--it's where we fought Sakaki at the end of Vol. 2. It's also where Ovan revealed that he had been tri-edge all along.

aww, thanks pi
23:14
we'll stop there
23:15
next time will be the grand finale of .hack//gu
23:15
though, as said before, we have quite a ways yet to go before this thread is done
23:19
also: I looked it up and Alkaid's sudden gaining of levels is new to the remaster
23:19
you did in fact have to do that manually on the PS2 version
23:19
She gains levels real quick but still
23:19

17:03
honestly normally I just do it when I have time but for the ending I'd be nice to have as many people as possible here for it
17:03
though, as I've said repeatedly, this thread will continue to the bitter end
17:04
At least 3-4 more updates in vol 3 I expect and then another 3 or 4 for Vol 4, depending on how long that game actually is

It's a steal at that price tbh

Apparently the historical low was mid April at $5 so shrug

Shaiapouf 26-May-22 05:45 PM
8 is the cheapest I know of on steam

also this sale blows, a lot of games are only on sale as the digital deluxe editions, which are already super over priced

the dungeon itself is very mundane. Weirdly coincidental name aside, this really was just the random part of The World where Cubia happened to be
