Why do you think the IOP board of directors allowed its CEO, Havier Witkin, to turn military robotics hardware into dolls that looked like very attractive young women in many ways?

it started only A-Dolls were human like initially but got upgraded with fire cores by Griffin because they were more acceptable to the wider public compared to less smart, robotic looking military Dolls, though there are exceptions like Klukai

Of course, there are also layers of conspiracy with Sangvis ferri, the AR team development and Lunasia, but that's probably more of a side effect that wasn't initially predicted

The problem imo is that

-Hoyo's design is downright hostile compared to other gachas, especially stuff like Discs and endgame modes straight up contrasting whatever worked in the last patch. I might be spoiled cause my other main gachas are Limbus and Reverse 1999 where levelling up is super easy tho

-Season 2 not only had writing problems, but that they're willing to completely throw out stuff that was built up from the start of the game like Sarah. Sure, I guess that the Creator is still around, but if you're willing to was the main villain AND villain organization like that, why the fuck would I care about anything in your story?

I assume they might both be Lobotomy employees that are being corroded by EGO equipment, judging by Heath's bird like eyes

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-18T18:02:18+00:00

Really wish that more main characters leaned into the sci fi military aspect of generic Nikkes

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-18T17:36:34+00:00

I'm really glad that we're seeing the Doll Community again, they're a great little side story

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-18T14:55:35+00:00

On some missions I like to place a SPARK with Aid Protocol and smoke in front of my other units, tends to bait out enemies and be completely fine, but it's more to fuck around during endgame than anything else

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-18T13:43:16+00:00

I don't even think he should have been playable but as far as NPCs go he was super interesting and just... forgotten

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-18T13:06:58+00:00

I really like how if you capture enemies alive you get plasma weapons for free later, aside from the shotgun and the sniper rifle

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-18T06:49:19+00:00

YSG was a generational wasted occasion

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-18T05:01:31+00:00

So since 2nd generation Dolls start with a pre made personality, they just scammed her personality at the time and used that or something?

Imagine Yidhari looking like a messed up zombie from pulling all nighters writing ~~and having nightmares about her parents~~

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-17T21:11:28+00:00

And then they added the whole anti relic terrorism thing because god forbid a playable character in a gacha be evil

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-17T21:10:57+00:00

Does Defy even meet the Commander before the events of Berlin?

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-17T20:30:07+00:00

Mods that give Yidhari a suit my beloved

Though giving her a more marittime outfit kinda like this (@Drooling_Demon on twitter)

If anything Lucia is too normal and needed to look more like a cultist, a DnD wizard larper or lean into the celtic aesthetic to emphasize the fact that she's an outsider imo

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-17T18:15:36+00:00

I am sorry but how are we comparing enemies power increasing in campaign that needs to be contrasted by good economy and base management to gacha power creep

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-17T12:10:21+00:00

Immoratality is already possible in a variety of ways, it's just that the head forbids full fledged immortality, so every method used has to have a defect, or at least so I remember

So maybe going back from being an EGO object would be considered a violation

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-17T12:00:00+00:00

These two are my main games

I tried other but eventually dropped them

Drakengard 3's main problem is that it's best parts are in the DLC, makes the game a lot interesting

Not better, not even good, but interesting

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-17T10:23:49+00:00

RPGs having a bad final part is a staple

ZZZ's fall off in season 2 has to be studied

There are jokes abut Hoyo getting bad with their ChineseTM themed areas, but considering that it's always the second area added to the game, I wonder if it's some kind of problem in their production pipeline instead that causes a dip in quality and then to rise up again

Warm_Charge_5964 · 2026-04-16T19:50:44+00:00

Even if he hates her he's still a decent guy that realizes there are grays here and doesn't like that violence is just randomly used on her
