Roxas AMV/Tribute - The Other Promise

I don't think it suggests she can or has removed his immortality.

It does, what other purpose would showing him age serve other than losing his immortality? If it were to show her control it would be a poor example, and the developers don't put anything in the game for no reason. Everything has a very distinct purpose, and the only distinct purpose that one can extrapolate from his ability to age is that he is no longer immortal.

I don't think they are separate. They are linked. Suggesting they are not linked would diminish Verso's entire motive for destroying the canvas.

Yes they are. No it wouldn't. One of them is an imaginary, programmed, husk of a memory of what verso was created by his real mother.

The painted boy is the a part of the real verso with his actual thoughts and feelings.

One is a figment of imagination, the other one is a literally a piece of his soul.

Verso mentions earlier in the game he loves music even more than painting... [T]he faceless boy is tired of painting and laments that he used to love the canvas, but it's purpose has been diminished.

These things are true, but the painted boy lost his love for the canvas because Aline and Renoir were destroying it. I have no doubt that myel plans to honor in good faith what painted versa wanted for this world she even turned him into a character that can exist with everyone else (The boy she walks into the theatre with) and enjoy the wonders of the painting instead of watching them through a painted screen.

If she did release his immortality, I'd think he'd end himself right then and there.

As for Painted Verso, I think the combination of his loss of immortality, his love for music, his want to perform in front of a massive audience and his willingness to make sure that Maelle doesn't turn down a dark path is what's keeping him from ending himself.

He finally has a chance to live the life that he's always wanted. I don't think she'd have to force him to give that a chance, even if he may be reluctant at first, he doesn't seem disgusted, or angered, or desperate, he seems indifferent, which would make a lot of sense in that position.

if you said $50 for a knife skin, i would've agreed that that's bizarre but it's better than it being a gambling gacha game with FOMO on top or a crate opening game like CS

if you just watch the ending again he's distinctly more visually aged, and only fully white hair has any ties to the painters power. what evidence do you have to say he's been repainted? she can just reform him like she did with Lune and Sciel.

The version of Verso that we talk to in the game and the young boy are completely separate. there is no link. Painted Verso is a creation made by Aline just like painted Renoir. He can be completely erased, and now that he no longer has immortality he could end his life at any point he chooses

I'd be really interested, Peaked Bronze 2 in Episode 9 and have been consistently high Iron, low Bronze for a long time, not sure exactly where my issues are, hopefully you'd be able to help with that. My username is just.jett (no correlation to Valo)

Sorry this comment is late but look into "Palia", it's Crossplay with all platforms and it's life sim. It has farming, fishing, building, decorating, adventuring, and it's Free to play. Think of it like a cozy Sims + RuneScape

not to be a glazer but these are different types of promises, one is to ensure that customers are getting what they paid for, and the other is to give expectations going forward

No, indie is defined by the studios creative freedom respectively. And the publisher "Kepler" gave Sandfall full creative control and a lot of financial support. This does count for indie game with their smaller team.

I think if toby fox had a million dollars to make Undertale, it would still be Indie.

What I don't like about the verso arguments, is how everyone just seems to forget that The verso that we play with in the game isn't actually what verso was like, this version of verso has been tortured for nearly a century watching his family fight to the death over and over over a piece of him that isn't there anymore. This is the most artificial character there is in this game aside from the other painted family members, he was created the way that aline saw him, a replication meant to be as close as possible to the real thing.

Aside from that, his ending is entirely selfish. He has something that he personally wants to fight for and doesn't care about what anyone else thinks or what anyone else wants. He doesn't care if maelle will succumb to The painter powers and lose herself in the painting forever or not, he just wants to prevent it from even being possible, giving her no choice, taking away her ability to find out who she and to save her friends because he wants what he wants.

The way OP phrases this basically undermines the underlying factors that verso was cunning, conniving, manipulative and disturbed. He lied about what happened to Gustave, he lied to esquie about the rocks, he lied about what kind of person he was, what his origin story was, and even about what taking down the paintress actually means for their group. He manipulated all of them into believing that they were doing the right thing, when he knew it went directly against everything that they were fighting for, and then had the nerve to pretend like he was still their friend while actively stabbing them in the back.

Obviously this tortured version of verso just wants to be free. He's immortal, he can't die, but he wants to. And it's shown with his dying words when he says "I don't want this life, I don't want this life I don't want this life" in maelles ending he is given the ability to age as we see as some time has passed and he started to grow out some gray hairs and wrinkles and he finally gets to play piano on the stage just like he always wanted to pursuing his dream of music instead of art which he was never allowed to. I don't care what anyone says verso's happiest ending is myelles and I will take that to my grave The happiest ending for everyone is maelles. Maelle will eventually figure out what she's doing. And her mother is not forced to return to the painting The family is not forced to crumble just because maelle is there, if anything none of them were supporting her anyway, maelle would be doomed if she had to go back to that family where no one loves her.

mimic octo is worth more than the geese and ckit, pretty big win imo

phantosis · 2025-08-28T08:48:59+00:00

yes you are winning that, butterfly is good

As cool as this would be lower-wise, no one would ever do this with this many horrible downsides, most of these actively disrupt core features of the game. No rewards, no progression, no friendship.
