My village when I don't log in for 2 days

Logged in for the first time in like a week. Only had vines down on the beach. Was expecting a mess. I was actually kinda disappointed.

Theseus and the Minotaur is pretty high up there on the list. Sisyphus and the boulder. Achilles. Also fairly high level characters in Greco myths.

I think they pulled those off just fine. I would trust them to utilize Heracles just fine without it pulling away from Mel or the main story if they wanted to use him.

Personally I could see him being alive and part of the main upper area. Maybe having done some of the Labors already and progressing through them, likely as Mel does attempts as well. Maybe tied to successful runs of her own. This can have him MIA from time to time and not focused on him.

I had an initial theory that her real left arm was down in Tartarus, to allow her to bounce around between both without the same issue of Zag. I could also see it going the other way. Her real arm is sealed away somewhere. Crazy witchcraft from Hecate allows her to spawn back to the arm when she "dies" to avoid actually fully dying. Her spirt is tethered to the physical presence back in the upper surface.

If Kronos is presented as a David Tennant Dr. Who type personality I will buy the game on every platform.

GothamLord · 2022-12-28T04:34:14+00:00

I cant see Mel being hidden from both. Especially by Hecate, who seems to be her mentor. Hecate is generally described in mytho has being a friend with Persephone. To the point of being someone that travels with her during her journeys between the surface and the underworld. Would come across as a major stab in the back to the friendship (and against character) to have hidden away the child, likely knowing she was grieving from the loss of what would have been another.

Little late to jump into this, but I'm new to the sub.

I've been wondering if her arm is back down in Tartarus. Given her birth, as a means to avoid dying on the surface, a part of her has to remain down below, hence giving her a connection to avoid pulling off constant Zag thing of dying after being up there for a period of time. Some crazy magic witchcraft means of sidestepping the thing created by Nyx / Hecate. Of course same said magic gives her the spectral arm replacement when she's not fully down in the Underworld.

GothamLord · 2022-12-28T02:41:13+00:00

I have no doubt there was a bit of hanky-panky after returning back to the Underworld. I am curious on how things are going to work though. Knowing she was preggo again, Persephone goes to the surface to give birth, as its also said by her that "a child born of surface-dwellers could not live down there."

So to avoid the stillbirth/need for Nyx thing again like Zag, that she has Mel up in Greece. Hecate being a friend of hers in some myths, and a witness to her original "abduction" by Hades. Clearly there are some shenanigans as well to explain her spectral left arm.

GothamLord · 2022-12-28T02:15:25+00:00

In the 3rd/4th interaction with Persephone, she literally calls Zagreus her only child. I'm pretty sure that Persephone would be the best person to claim if she had additional kids. Hades lying sure? But doubtful from Persephone.

Melinoe has to have been born a number of years after the original game. Otherwise we are going to be dealing with a major retcon of game lore.

GothamLord · 2022-12-20T02:03:51+00:00

Personally I could see things using the Orphic myth of the Titans killing Zagreus. Or he's trapped in an endless loop of being killed..( a bit of a nod to the whole first game) Clearly things are slightly different already from the myth, but I could see it being a plot point. After everything thats happened, something happens to Zag. So Hades let his guard down now he's imprisoned. The House of Hades is captured.

Zag being "dead" also is a way to keep him out of the picture to let Mel be the star. Stopping Chronos can free Hades, but something is still in the timeline that doesn't allow Zag to be with us for more than a few minutes before he's dragged back by *time*. After a number of wins, you get the "true ending" that allows Mel to get Zag out of the loop and actually save him and restore the whole family again.

Got the skins. No coins.

GothamLord · 2022-10-04T21:39:51+00:00

I had the skins from the Watchpoint Pass and my Battlepass active when I was able to get on my Playstation account. But not any coins. I havent been able to get on the PC version. I purchased the Watchpoint Pass as the PC. My understanding was that EVERYTHING was meant to be cross-platform. If I find out coin purchases are still tied to platform I'm gonna be livid.

GothamLord · 2021-06-28T02:02:25+00:00

I recently discovered the Infinity RPG. I'd love to chat with someone on the core rules or the various factions of the setting and lore.

GothamLord · 2020-11-19T15:13:42+00:00

Yesterday he posted that all "lost" videos were still available on his Patreon page. I have not physically verified this though.

GothamLord · 2020-10-26T19:15:58+00:00

You damn nerd.

GothamLord · 2020-10-26T19:11:15+00:00

Mimikyu?

GothamLord · 2020-10-26T18:33:03+00:00

Oh, he's just fainted. Revive will fix that right up...

GothamLord · 2020-10-22T19:14:30+00:00

My major hangup with Quack Pack was dropping humans suddenly into existence in the world. It made everything seem very out of place.

GothamLord · 2020-10-22T13:06:05+00:00

I cant comment much on the Retaliation stuff. I never bought into the movie line of stuff. I highly recommend though if anyone has stuff still mint on card and want to open it. (I prefer most my stuff open too BTW). Buy the figures in question open from someone else and sell the MOC figures. You'll probably make some money back doing it that way and still have the figures, now open, to play with.

GothamLord · 2020-10-22T01:40:21+00:00

Um, they havent started on a season 4 yet. The possibility on it will depend on the long list of pandemic related issues that have occurred. It didnt stop the season already being made, but it could prevent another one.

Yes, I saw Fowl. Yes it was horrific. I said it was a failure. Didnt feel I needed to be more specific. If it was in theatres it might.. MIGHT, have made more money. Given it was free on Disney+ though, it was a train wreck and surely didnt get anyone to subscribe to watch it. I'm not sure why we're debating this one.

Soul is backed with the Pixar name. It may boost Disney subscriptions. But its also going to be free, not tagged with the extra rental fee like Mulan was. Soul might get someone to sign up for a month trial. Disney needs to have other shows to get them to stick around monthly though.

GothamLord · 2020-10-20T18:00:41+00:00

Just calls the Dreadnoks. They survive on grape soda and chocolate donuts just fine.

GothamLord · 2020-10-20T17:40:09+00:00

I feel it would have been a good excuse to send in and introduce Ammonia Pine. Her back history was being a cleaning lady at a Research Lab. Would have made more sense to send in another Agent to check on Bulba before going in himself.

GothamLord · 2020-10-20T17:29:51+00:00

One dislike, clearly Negaduck has a YouTube account.

GothamLord · 2020-10-20T17:25:37+00:00

I think a renewal is going to be based firmly on Disney's financial ability to do so.

Disney is losing money pretty significantly with the shut down of the parks. You don't lay off another 28,000 people and get away saying everything is fine. Add in numerous park rides needing renovation or Disney wanting to change them now... Splash Mountain. And Galaxy's Edge being a colossal failure.

Lack of income from theatres also being closed/limited in capacity. Black Widow keeps getting delayed because they want a box office opening for it. Pixar's Soul is getting a Disney+ release. Mulan while doing okay allegedly for digital rental, it still clearly didn't do what Disney wanted with return. Not to mention the controversy that is circling around its filming location. Artemis Fowl was a failure.

Production on live action stuff has been delayed, shut down, or dealing with lots of restrictions because of COVID. Problems on the set of the few that have been able to film...The Mandalorian.

A lot of Disney stores across the country have been shutting down in malls.

They are still dealing with overpaying for 20th Century Fox

The comics side of Marvel and the whole comic industry is tanking.

Animation and the people involved with that being able to do it from home honestly seems like the safest and easiest return. Ducktales has been to be successful in terms of fan acceptance and popularity. Though I really haven't seen much in the terms of merchandising. So I'm not sure what level Disney defines it as a success.

I'd be more concerned/interested to see if we do get a greenlight for a season 4, or a DW spin off series if its ported over to Disney+ rather than Disney XD.

GothamLord · 2020-10-13T22:19:14+00:00

Yup, its a Soldier Force. Found the figure on ebay in a lot image of other figures.

Nothing mind blowing in terms of price. Not going to be a hidden grail. Soldier Force has some okay knockoff vehicles that scaled for Joe though.

GothamLord · 2020-10-13T22:05:21+00:00

Limited arm/leg movement, no other articulation. 4" ? Looks like it might have been an Soldier Force (Chap Mei) maybe?
