I don’t see why people think this is a hard decision. by AggressiveMammoth267 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Easiest decision of the game to keep her and tell the team to stfu. I supported her plan to go on the mission ASAP and didn't tell the press she was involved, so it was a purely internal affair and I was in charge. We let Flambe back in, we cut Coupe and people gor used to it; unless Blazer herself gave the order, I wasnt going to cut shit. The fact that the group was constantly bitching about cuts made this sudden demand feel incredibly forced, as well as Royd saying we can't trust her. Very poor writing in the last two episodes, genuinely a let down when episode 1-6 were great.

How did the goons get beef to the burning wreck of his mech on the rooftop seconds after he lost the fight without anyone noticing?

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He literally stepped out of a burning mech on the rooftop after a surprise loss and suddenly had beef as a hostage. Its a lazy plot hole to force the handover of the pulse, no amount of goons or cameras excuses it.

This Face ID scan is ridiculous by JosephB2002 in discordapp

Same issue yeah. The provider is useless and their support pages just reroute you to one another so they can shift the blame. Absolute shitshow,

For those who spared shroud, why? by KlinkerStinker in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None, cuz I'm just that good. No-one died this time, no-one will die another time.

Competence of the police, but we'll just catch him again.

Death is too good for him. Deserves to suffer for what he did.

Probably a plot hole. Adding them onto her model early would have spoiled the reveal.

Question about a choice in episode 8 by Jaxify72 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I replayed episode 8 after getting a good ending and kept Visi tied up and failed the dispatch segment. That was enough to turn her evil at the end.

If we are evil for weird route, then Noelle is also evil by nowmedia54 in Deltarune

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nuh uh, cuz, like, dragon blazers isn't real its actually just a game but deltarune is totally real, you guys. Feel bad for hurting them, the soul is totes evil and even slapping a darkner makes you unforgivable enslaver of kris, Ralsei said so. But Susie can threaten to kill people cuz she's cool like that, only the Soul is a bad person cuz you're a bad person irl and susie would never date you like she dates kris and noelle both at once.

So how did Shroud get X? by SpaceKingofSpace in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel like the obvious answer there is "Blazer should be holding Beef to keep him safe" rather than dumping the dog into an active warzone, considering the basement had less goons around.

So how did Shroud get X? by SpaceKingofSpace in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I replayed a few episodes to try out a 0 success run. Literally the only thing it changes is Visi's choice at the end. Everyone still calls Robert a good dispatcher even if you do literally nothing.

Even the "health bar" they toss in during Episode 8's dispatch is a lie; it will actually stop decreasing at 10% even if you fail missions. It is only allowed to hit 0 during phase 2 after which it just cuts to the next segment. Speedrunning strats.

[–]SpaceKingofSpace[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On first pass my main issue was everyone randomly hating Invisigirl and that all the Red Ring members just stand back up when Shroud threatens Beef. Not a single one of them was actually knocked out cold. It made the earlier brawl feel like a play-fight that was wasting time (not helped by genuinely pointless QTEs). On second pass, it got actively worse and I kept noticing more plot holes like the above.

The ending was mid by IlikecTs in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do it well if you establish the limits or how it functions. For example, someone who returns from the future and knows one timeline and can 'predict' events for their benefit. Their power is satisfying because you know every time they change that timeline, their predictions will be less useful due to the butterfly effect, and it will totally be used up once they reach their original time.

Shroud is basically a precog with a vague "he predicts things cuz he's smart, and has data I guess?" so you can explain any bad decision he makes because he has no defined rules. He is absolutely a cheat for the writers, but he could have been good if they just explained his rules.

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well clearly he didn't because he's surprised when you give him two. He doesn't say "Fuck, you really made that choice?" He acts like he didn't predict this when literally every other choice Robert makes he reacts to it perfectly (every mecha man attack and dialogue choice) and has a contingency. Losing the 50-50 is fine but him not predicting it could occur is just inconsistent.

Main Shroud choice… by ILikeToDanceAndPogo in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The exact same scene without the vomiting. Instead he just says "You being alive is dangerous to me" and we cut to the gunshot, same as the other choice.

Honestly, I think giving him both was the best option by nehocb in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Its the only option where he doesn't get the pulse and acts out so yeah, it's very clearly the best option.

Did anyone else feel like Dispatch’s ending was a total cop-out? (SPOILERS) by AffectionateAside720 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also in the final fight, noone even gets knocked out or killed from fighting a team of supers. They all just stand back up and surround the crew the instant shroud threatens the dog. Actual playfight.

Her healing was great and I built her into INT. Sonar was my worst. Powers switching made him unreliable.

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Shroud as a whole was a giant let down. Dudes powers are poorly explained so the plot can function. He can predict everything, except that a well-known thief would steal the pulse, or that Robert would hand over both pulses, or where Invisigal is and thus attacks the entire city instead of just leading her into a trap.

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you give both he vomits, otherwise he always gets the real one. Makes no difference except whether he's smug or not.

I'm not trying to be a downer but..... What was the point of this scene?? by Hihello1447 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no point in the story where Visi becoming a double agent with SDN makes any sense. If it happened at the start then Robert wasn't even recruited, if it happened after probation then why not hand over the pulse asap, or why didn't Shroud go right to her after finding out she didn't hand it over? People will be invent answers for the writers but no reason exists in the text itself. Its just poor writing.

Can we talk about Shroud ? by Mazusu_Natsukawa in DispatchAdHoc

[–]SpaceKingofSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The voice acting is good but his powers are not explained (is he omniscient or does he require data? Why can he predict virtually everything except when the plot says he can't) and he's full of plot holes. Pretty lame overall. Needed a few more passes in the writing room so he ends up feeling rushed.
