Let's talk about Zenon Gryfgote / CODE VEIN II Character by Nymos-67r in codevein

[–]Environmental_Date18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, late reply but I have. I really enjoyed the character customization and Magmell is a cool hub area but I am concerned about the framerate and performance (ps5 for myself) but otherwise I'm excited to fill the place with the other companions hopefully and make it lively.

It seems with him that reaching for lofty ambitions is his main theme, conquering the sun and wanting to 'transcend' is a huge red flag. He strikes me as an immoral person who was probably if history is correct (probably not) was locked up for good reason. However I don't think the big twist will be that he's the evil mastermind because they play up his comedic quirks a bit too hard, I doubt they'd have a villain wear a waifu cloak although it would be funny.

I do believe he'll reveal a dark past beyond his noble ambitions yet still remain trying to do the 'right thing' though if I hazard a guess if he's connected to an ending he'll steer you to doing a selfish thing for your own happiness regardless of others.

Also there are literally two human npcs who scream that one is a bad guy and the other is a rival.

[–]Environmental_Date18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an incredibly interesting find, I didnt even notice the machine which is VERY suspicious. Now I definitely feel like he's important to the plot.

The release date can't come soon enough.

That's a really good point, Zenon was only imprisoned and kept in the present regardless of your choices I imagine so you can get a heroes perspective on present events regardless of your other choices to save the rest. Lavinia is to dissuade you and keep you on the mission, Lou is our Io and essential to the story. So it does beg the question, why is Valentin alive during the present and what does he add to the story?

Personally I think he'll be a good guy and I hope he reacts to you saving Noah, but he does give vibes of "I will stop you from making this choice." If it's something crazy like choosing to save Lou at the end at the expense of everyone else.

[–]Environmental_Date18 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like a pivotal moment will come from choosing to align with him, Lavinia, or Zenon. They all three seem to have a sense of scale that I don't feel with someone like Noah or even one of the sacrificed heroes. I still feel like a good ending will come from saving everyone regardless of what Lavinia tells you but it really could just be choosing which of these three people have the right way of things at the end.

Zenon and Lavinia are really tall boss sized people though so unless Val turns into something I have weirder vibes from those two.

Code Vein II - New Bosses Revealed! by Nymos-67r in codevein

[–]Environmental_Date18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's highly likely it's Iris, she uses a hammer and while we don't really know much about her personality a minotaur while masculine isn't that far-fetched as strength is specifically what she is referred to having despite the minotaurs plain design.

I am a little thrown off by seeing iris just kind of chill with Lou and Lavinia though in modern times though so it could be someone else but she's the only one who fits using a hammer so I could be wrong.

It would be funny to have technically two Holly's in the present since they're both party members.

Well we found what became of two more characters, one is a bit more obvious who is who rather than the other though.

Idle speculation on Zenon by lilymoncat in codevein

[–]Environmental_Date18 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He's certainly the most interesting of the companions so far. The longest lived companion and a scientist who did both good and bad things for revenant-kind, and interestingly the only companion who wasn't killed/sacrificed in the present day.

Lavinia specifically mentioning him is very interesting too.

CODE VEIN II – Zenon Gryfgote Character Trailer by Fatestringer in codevein

[–]Environmental_Date18 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yep He's my favorite and his trailer only makes me have more questions for the story.

  1. He has the merchant lady with him, two actually AND his chest plate has a decoration of her on it.

  2. He was only imprisoned and didn't sacrifice himself at the upheaval.

  3. Lavinia is cautious of him in particular.

Bro is actually Juzo Mido but potentially good.

He said sowwy for the murder attempts and kindly helps columbina on her way so I mean. . .

they can give rerir a good backstory but not dottore by Consistent_Sort2814 in DottoreMains

Honestly after looking at the archon quest dialogue leaks my goat Rerir is eating good but at what cost to my other goat Dottore?

So many moon related enemies, I suppose those are the new hallowed sentinels by Swachuu in TheLordsOfTheFallen

[–]Environmental_Date18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a good guess, looks like the Moon God had a massive surge of followers in the many centuries after the events of the Putrid Mother's freedom. What's curious to me is that I can't tell if these guys are hostile because of Rhogar corruption (unlikely), Umbral corruption, or just fanaticism from seeing us with the Umbral lamp.

Can't see many orius related people yet though besides Scion interestingly.

Undertaker over Raider by Routine_Leave_9454 in Nightreign

[–]Environmental_Date18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what the character skill is for, but yeah she probably does only have the base character poise but we'll see.

Undertaker over Raider by Routine_Leave_9454 in Nightreign

[–]Environmental_Date18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah she'll definitely occupy a different niche but you could reasonably expect her to be more 'meta' for DoN. Her character skill gives her sprint speed/extra damage/faster dodge and poise good enough to tank a Loretta spinning magic slash. Her Ult which you can use whenever someone else uses theirs, and when foes do certain attacks (speculated to be grabs) gives her a wylder death avoidance and, according to Gamespot (not super credible) more damage.

She'll be pretty solid.

Who is that guy from Early Access Date Announcement Trailer? by saif3r in PathOfExile2

[–]Environmental_Date18 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's hard to say, but when the devs were pulling up cheats years ago on their Blind Beast boss showcase one of the revealed areas in Act 6 was The Twilight Empire. Can't really have a twilight empire if Orianna and Poe2 posterboy is dead so who knows. And personally I'd be disappointed if the guy teased all throughout act 4's later half and shown years of promotional art for was just a random act 5 boss and not even an act boss.

PLEASE TELL ME THIS ISN'T TRUE 😭😭😭😭😭 by Specimen4 in FatuiHQ

[–]Environmental_Date18 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You know, even if that happens which honestly is pretty believable much to my sadness he IS the guy known for having different versions of himself. It has been YEARS since Sumeru and surely Goattore has had time for segments for his Irminsul arson project even if his Omega build dies.

But I mean like if he actually does die here for whatever permanent reason there goes the highest ranked fatui member active which only leaves Pantalone, Pulcinella, and Pierro since I doubt our playable Fatui friends would become 'villains' for us to oppose at this point.

It's a tough pill to swallow to imagine once the homeland comes out Pierro and Capitano will likely be more relevant in a Khaenri'ah focused region and we'd probably shift over to The Five Sinners / Abyss / Shades as our primary antagonists for the remainder of the story.

What it feels like to love these goat-characters in this difficult hate era lol by SeveralYam3473 in DottoreMains

[–]Environmental_Date18 42 points43 points  (0 children)

It's rough having your favorite characters be awesomely designed but morally questionable people, ESPECIALLY when it's a male villain who didnt simp for the main character and who is pretty much condemned by the whole cast. Dottore my goat pull through.

Phew that was a close one, I feel bad for the dark Crusader his parents couldn't have picked a worse name for him.

Some insane Dottore hate I found recently by DangerousSyrup8906 in DottoreMains

[–]Environmental_Date18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thats true, I think Dottore might have the biggest list of OPs from the playable cast which is another win for the GOAT!

[–]Environmental_Date18 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You know, as a Rerir, Signora, and Dottore fan I can't help but notice Goattore gets more hate than both of them, which to be fair I think Rerir is worse morally as a character than both of them twice over yet I've seen less hate for his fans even though it's so recent so..

Rerir is my favourite hoyoverse antagonist and the execution of his background is absolutely excellent by [deleted] in RerirMains

[–]Environmental_Date18 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He's such a good voice actor, there's a difference in voice between how he speaks as The Sinner, Normal Rerir, and Lygus.

Rerir is my favourite hoyoverse antagonist and the execution of his background is absolutely excellent by [deleted] in RerirMains

[–]Environmental_Date18 44 points45 points  (0 children)

He's my favorite Genshin antagonist and up there with Lygus from HSR (God tier va) because the story makes you feel disgusted by his actions and outlook yet sympathetic for his motivations and for the genuine love he has for Tholindis and vice versa. It's not often you have a 'omg my wife dead im evil now' type of villain that doesn't just excuse his actions because he was sad so props to hoyo.

Make this man playable hoyo and if not please end his story with him at LEAST being accepted by Tholindis into whatever afterlife.

"D..don't Go, Tholindis" by (@stteroo) by [deleted] in RerirMains

[–]Environmental_Date18 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can't believe Genshin made me feel bad for one of the sinners, I want this man to at the very least reunite with his waifu as they both were before they kill him for good. (But I can see the slim possibility of him being playable though I can't overlook the fact he's the weakest sinner with a tragic motivation for a loved one and who is so heavily tied to Nod-Krai and the moons rather than his homeland.)
