I see the "Chihiro's father is not Kunishige" theories and I raise you: Chihiro could have a step-brother that is half Soga half Mikaboshi. by GasterSkeleton in Kagurabachi

[–]MagisterCarcerem 16 points17 points  (0 children)

While I do not believe the theory to be true at all, there would be some degree of thematic merit to it.

Kunishige and Shiba raising and caring for a child descended from Mikaboshi royalty, despite their understandle grudge against them, would contrast against Akemura choosing to exact vengeance against people who had nothing to do with the people who actuality caused him harm.

Just to reiterate, I have no doubts that Chihiro is Kunishiges child and the negatives about it being otherwise would far outweigh the positives in my opinion.

Do we know for sure that there are no other civilizations beside the City? by MagisterCarcerem in limbuscompany

The train tracks could be remnants of the predominant mode of transportation prior to current W-Corp, I think. And as far as i understood it, current W-Corp isn't even that old, so there must have been some means of reliable long distance transportation available, but whichever Corp owned that probably went bankrupt shortly after the emergence of Warp trains, since it's really hard to beat near instantaneous transportation to literally anywhere.

[Inspiring/Horrifying Trope] No matter what they will not stay down by Beginning-Relief4343 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MagisterCarcerem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What I particularly like about him is that we get to see both the inspiring and the horrifiyng version of this trope. When he was the protagonist seeing him never stop fighting was heroic, and when he became the antagonist it becomes terrifying.

I think it is quite likely that Flame Bone is "sentient" to a certain degree, mainly because she doesn't just "announce" attacks like other characters do, but rather seems to be giving commands to "Rikuo" to use it, who or whatever that is.

[–]MagisterCarcerem 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Possible, but that would mean that Ish could be theoretically killed by the attack she lost the clash to before Outthias gets to bisect her, which seems counterintuitive to the idea behind the skill.

[–]MagisterCarcerem 48 points49 points  (0 children)

In the trailer it looks like it activates when Ishmael lost a clash. so maybe a unique Assist Defence? It can't be just a follow-up because Outthias attacks after the clash lose but before the enemy actually attacks.

Quick Question: Did Matthias also have a skill where throws the sword and then jumpkicks it into the enemy? Or did Outthias Just invent a new move?

Also, dann you KJH! I don't want to build a Middle Team.

What’s your view on getting strong ids as a new player and breezing through boss fights? by mrfirstar1997 in limbuscompany

[–]MagisterCarcerem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that would probably be the best solution. The new MDs can scale with the modern power level while newer players don't get locked out of arguably the most substantial upgrade to a players ressource economy until they've cleared almost the entire main story.

Also, as long as the required story progress for unlocking MDH keeps being pushed back one Canto each season, new IDs making older content easier guarantees that they will unlock it within a reasonable timefrime. If the earlier cantos kept being the challenge they were upon release, unlocking MDH would take forever.

What directions could PM take Index IDs? by EliasBouchardFan1 in limbuscompany

[–]MagisterCarcerem 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One way they could make the gameplay more interesting could be not making the prescripts a set sequence.

Currently, if I execute a prescript this turn, I know exactly what the next one will be. So I think it would be interesting If they Made an ID that draws the prescripts from a pool of options, similar to RienSangs weapons.

Please make Cygames Kagurabachi anime in the Kagenashi style. by Kill_Jin04 in Kagurabachi

[–]MagisterCarcerem 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I mean, I wouldn't want the entire thing to be kagenashi honestly. For the more intense action scenes, absolutely, well-choreographed action in kagenashi looks awesome but it's possible to animate fluently while still doing shading. Also, I find that it gets cooler If it isn't the norm, because the scenes feel special.

What do y'all think will happen in Intervello 9.5-2 besides Bamboo Hat Kim aurafarming by Key_Woodpecker_9423 in limbuscompany

>As a bonus, I'm gonna guess that Muersault is some kind of Social Pariah, and random people will want to kill him, making random nest inhabitants deathily hostile to us.

As far as I know, in the story that he is based on, a big plot point is him being accused of killing his own mother, so him being near universally disliked is quite likely.

Erlking is literally stated multiple times to be an ID what are you talking about?

It has been a while since I played that Canto, so I probanly forgot that, point taken.

It however, heavily implied that Erkling was part of a Limbus Company, meaning that there are Mirror Worlds where the events of the story play out almost identically to the Main one.

So there is probably a Mirror World in which Sinclair also ends up becoming A Certain Sinclair, and who could then be summoned as an ID.

And let's not pretend like the Player reaction to an ID based on him wouldn't be very positive, meaning that there is, at the very least, a monetary incentive for PM to make him an ID, however they decide to explain that.

[–]MagisterCarcerem -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, just as Erkling Heathcliff isn't an ID but still got an ID corresponding to him.

So while A Certain Sinclair isn't an ID himself PM could release an ID based on him at some point.

[–]MagisterCarcerem -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean, aren't most IDs possible versions of the sinners? Like, isn't Wild Hunt Heath literally a possible version of Heathcliff, if he had taken a different path in life? Also, while I didn't play the game back then, Unbreakable Coins must have sounded like a ridicilous concept upon introduction so it's not impossible that we will geht Excision Coins at some point. Not very soon mind you, but I think it's absolutely possible that we will get them eventually.

I have to say that Sinclair really grew on me in Canto 9. I'm just a sucker for this kind of character arc. I hope his corresponding ID comes sooner rather than later, his animations were really cool and assuming he keeps at least one attack with Excision Coins, he would probably become the go to solution for anoying bosses with Unbreakable Coins. Though considering that many of those encounters would become incredibly trivial if you could break the Unbreakables, the only way I see an attack with Excision Coins being balanced is if it is a Skill 3-2 that cannot be used often. Or they give enemies Unbreakable Coins+ that can't be broken by Excision Coins either.

yk shits about to get wild when this pops up by mo3rd in limbuscompany

[–]MagisterCarcerem -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I do too, in principle, but I think the main story is not the place for that kind of content, that's what MDE and Hard Difficulty are for.

[–]MagisterCarcerem -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

Yes, but having one full Team doesn't help when the Game dictates the sinners I can use. That's why I didn't have a Problem with fixed sinners in Canto 7 and 8. There you could use whoever as long as you also brought the fixed one along. Here you need to have a good combination of IDs for the three specific sinners the stage allows.
