Rising from the dead to make a post that no one but me will care about: assigning the droplets boys metalocalypse characters.

(The numbers didn't add up since there are 7 jerks and 5 dethklok guys so I left out JB and then I couldn't find someone that Nate fit. He'd be Charles if Lynn was out of the picture for sure tho)

Pran- Nathan

I swear I am not only going on designs, but that's definitely part of it (pretty big men ♡). Both are strong silent types with a lot of hate. Their general demeanor and outlook is similar. Plus, both canonically didn't speak (at least for a while) as kids (and the one scene of child Nathan reminds me of all the descriptions of child Pran). Both are some of the least academic/booksmart of the cast, also. Not everything fits (Nathan has a leadership role, passion, and a good relationship with his family, all unlike Pran), but they have enough strong basic similarities that I had to compare them.

Shiloh- Toki

Both are completely all over the map characters: are they sweethearts? Are they true genuine assholes? Are they somewhere in between? What is wrong with them? Are they okay? Both are very cute and childlike in presentation with a lot of unsavory traits underneath. Plus, both of of tend to be followers, going along with other people's random plans. Toki has more of a set characterization than Shiloh (who's kind of an enigma), but if anyone in the droplets cast fits Toki, it's Shiloh.

Everett- Pickles

I also debated Nate as Pickles but Everett works a lot better. Both are tiny guys filled with rage. Just anger and bitchiness in a tiny body. Pickles has had the most physical fights out of any character in his show, and the blood droplets kill levels confirm that Everett is the most violent of the jerks. Also, if Everett wasn't on constant watch by Nate, I think he'd absolutely be a party boy and drink a lot. The main difference in character is that Pickles has family issues galore and Everett is a momma's boy. Plus, Pickles is rarely an instigator and tends to just react to things, while Everett starts problems seemingly for fun. The comparisons are getting looser.

Bae- Skwisgaar

(I think JB also would've made a good Skwisgaar but I left her out of this) It's all about the confidence and self obsession. Both think that they are so fucking cool and want to lounge around and relax. They also both seem weak as hell (Bae is, and Skwisgaar seems to be, if his build and demeanor is anything to go on). Both have the utmost confidence in their own abilities and like to piss off their rival (either Nate or Toki) with that. The main difference between them is that Skwisgaar seemingly does a lot of work to be the best, he's constantly practicing guitar and he writes/works on the albums, whereas Bae kind of does jack shit and still thinks he's all that. Also, Bae's sex-adverse asexuality versus Skwisgaar's eternal ho phase lol

Jeremy- Murderface

I'M SORRY. This one is weird. I guess the main thing tying these two characters together is low self esteem. Most of dethklok and most of the xod cast don't really hate themselves- these two do. They also both have body issues, tied into that self hatred, that come up somewhat regularly. Both make everyone around them miserable, partially on purpose and partially because they are just Like That. The way they do it is different (Jeremy is a downer and Murderface just pisses people off), but it's the same general effect. There are a lot of differences, mainly that Jeremy is a germophobe and Murderface is nasty, but I had to assign someone Murderface and I wasn't losing the Pran-Nathan comparison so whatever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lynn- Charles

Just in role more than anything. Guy in charge of a group of assholes, who really does care about those assholes and puts up with all the insults and difficulty they throw at him. (Also hot. They are hot.)

Petition to put dethklok into an xobd-style dark comedy yandere dating sim/cyoa and to put the jerk squad in an adult swim cartoon with several legitimate music albums please and thank you

If im allowed to ask, which storylines will be playable in the XOBD patreon beta? Im planning on subscribing to the "player" tier on the 1st and just wanted to know what to expect. I really like XOD and the current free XOBD, it's really fun to play. I've played through probably all of the routes in XOD so far (even the extended edition) and still always feel enjoyment in playint again. Thank you for making such great games!!

Yeah, you can ask that! There's one storyline for every guy in the beta, so the original Everett/Bae/Jeremy stories as well storylines for Nate/Pran/Shiloh. Plus, Everett and Bae have new storylines where things go in an entirely different way than the first storyline. I'm glad you enjoy the XOD stuff.

[natelawtism]

Can I say that the difference between Nate's behavior in XOBD and XOD is very interesting to me? Obviously everyone's changed. They aren't actually murderous in XOD (among other things), that's a given.

Spoiler's for Everett's route of XOBD under the cut in case anyone needs that warning

BUT! The way he treats JB in XOBD vs XOD is interesting to me. The way he behaves in general is. In XOBD it seems like he's a lot more willing to be vulnerable with people, which doesn't show up much in XOD. In XOD Nate is pretty shut-off. Of course, over the course of his relationship with JB he begins to open up, but there's never been a chance for him to go out of his way and help her like in Everett's route of XOBD.

In Everett's route he's obviously doing everything to help Everett. He's trying to get his best friend to have enough energy to wake up! But there were moments where he did show kindness and calm towards her. For example, after she murdered Pran and fed him to Everett and he still didn't wake up. Nate tries to comfort her and even says that it's okay she stay's in his dorm to watch over Everett with him!! That might not seem like a lot to most people, but for Nate? It's a LOT. Nate KILLS PEOPLE who break the rules in XOBD. A girl in the boy's dorms is very much against the rules, to the point that Nate does kick her out at some points! Nate being willing to ignore important rules to make her feel better is a big thing.

Not to mention the look on his face in this scene is very gentle. Especially gentle for Nate "I won't relax until I'm dead" Lawson. He truly does care, and considers her a friend! (which was mentioned previously in the prologue. When you run into him, he says that you're a friend and he really doesn't want you breaking the rules because he doesn't want you dead. Not just because he doesn't want people breaking the rules!)

In XOBD, Nate is definitely more open about how much he likes the mc. Of course, in XOBD all the jerks are a lottle crazy for the mc (Nate literally kills her in an ending with some "no one will ruin you again" shit), but this behavior just stuck out to me idk. It makes me happier to see a softer Nate! One who isn't constantly yelling or being exasperated, and can express care for his friends without the other jerks around riling him up.

My XOD!Baxter posts have me thinking about XOBD!Baxter possibilities.......

[pastabadguy]

Assumption: Pram XOBD. Also you seem like you'd like injera with doro wat

Pran is my beloved, especially in xobd. His beta build route is absolutely bonkers and so good. I had to look up injera and doro wat and it sounds so delicious I have to try it now.
