Did you guys know the concept of community added cosmetics was Bidwell's idea I like to think he goes through cosmetics himself, with occasional merc input

I love kabru like he’s established as this manipulative and shady person with ulterior motives who could be a major threat to laios’s party, but he also is one of the most empathetic and kind characters in the series and does his best to try and help everyone bc he is one of the people who understands the situation the best. and I think ppl are too focused on the first part they forget the second part. (Anime onlies are ok bc you guys haven’t gotten his character development yet ^^)

Also his party getting wiped out constantly in the beginning was funny as fuck

ohh yeah i colored that one drawing also…i keep changing the story because i would looove to rise from the grave but also how on earth would i not revive before i got buried...so i think it'd be fun to still be in the same place i died in. and i've been thinking about getting stitched up before coming back to life too ^_^)> oh well.

more of that super murder game or something

[nihiltism]

ok so while my ds is getting sand poured into it at alarming rates I'm thinking about how jrpgs in specific have a really weird desync with How Important Death Is. like some address it better than others but it very frequently happens where if you take a step back youll go "am I wild or is everybody just like, Really down with murder in this game". and consequences for said murder, especially in a characterization sense but even just actual physical consequences, don't really happen? unless it's a vehicle for conflict but like. when it is a vehicle for conflict it feels weird because why are These Guys actually taking the fact we killed somebody in broad daylight seriously and coming after us for it while all the other npcs and even the main party took it like it was another saturday evening

see I Think where the issue lies is in the fact that everything is in its own little world when you're in a battle? like. when you fight an enemy and you get leather out of it it's seen as something the enemy Drops and not. their hide. when you defeat a character in a battle it does just feel like you Defeated them. unless there's dialogue afterwards that says otherwise you don't even mentally assume you killed em you just wounded them enough to make them flee or dissolve or whatever. and it's Weird to just. have that assumption there because for a lot of games it really isn't clear if you're killing them or defeating them !!

that last point is extra important when you have the specific brand of Skittish Hero / Noble Hero Who Doesn't Kill People / Rational Hero In Way Over Their Head or whatever where you really don't think they Would kill a guy just to get them out of the way. in that case it's REALLY weird because it's hardly brought up. even if it Is brought up that that guy Sure Did Die the mc doesn't tend to actually have a reaction ??? and I don't know why this is ???? like Any written reaction would be more interesting than nothing even if the guy doesn't have a full on crisis about taking another life having them go "oh shit, The Consequences" would be nice. really anything except (oh cool we can advance the plot now).

I will also mention that Some deaths do matter plot wise but very frequently what makes them matter is how much of it is linked to an in game battle I think. if your mc just finishes a fight and comes back to the overworld and the guy's Disappeared or Dissolved or whatever it means they don't matter. if the guy's still around after the fight it means it's more significant, especially if they're still alive but wounded or Really Shaken Up. because this clears up the indistinguishable line between if a battle is lethal or not and if a character decides to deal a finishing blow now it's Way more telling of their character. even though this is basically the same thing that happened in the (killed In A Battle) scenario. just with more dialogue. I will also mention that the person who deals the finishing blow is Rarely Ever that good hearted protagonist and often they'll even go :0 at somebody else committing a murder despite them instigating and helping murder quite a few people. just. In Battle. so it's less bad. I guess.

this is leaving out the fact that in party deaths are often a Major Major Blow because like. ok that's fair. that's A Guy You Knew that's understandable. anyway I don't really know where I'm going with this I just think it's interesting how in these types of games death can swap from not mattering at all to mattering a Lot and if u don't think about it too hard u don't even question it. I'll probably be putting some examples in the tags idk

Kaz Brekker would never allow anyone, let alone himself, to own Inej Ghafa. This boy used his money from the heist to buy out her indenture, among other things. In the books, Kaz was just as much a pawn, legally, of Per Haskell as Inej. We see that in one of the first chapters of SoC. We see him being subservient and simpering, and Per Haskell deriving authority from that. And Inej watches. Inej watches Kaz as he does this. They are both soldiers in this gang.

Kaz in the show, however? Yikes.

Yeah, like I see fans act like Kaz could have paid off her indenture any time which is just laughable? Like your right, Kaz ISN'T the leader of the Dreges until the very end of CK. Kaz literally had to sell off the assets from the businesses he took great pain and effort into creating in order to pay it off. That's a fuck ton of money! Inej's indenture was predatory for a reason! The best he could do to help her was give her a better deal, and we see him take measures to insure her freedom best he can (no tattoo, tools of protection, the boat etc.) Show Kaz on the other hand IS the leader of the gang, he's a whole ass adult, and he simply owns her because she's useful and attractive to him lol. Which really says it all...

anyway. also im trapping even inside the tardis until the doctor gets back. which is very fun for them, as you can imagine, as someone with Being Trapped In A Space Ship trauma compounded by this spaceship being a living eldritch horror that is badly damaged and needs to fix itself and might accidentally eat them while they’re stuck inside her!
