03:56:30 Devastator wants to watch more show tonight.
03:58:23 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:01:21 Devastator: I'm still leaning towards 'idiot' as to why Subaru wrote his secret love-letter in gibberish.
04:01:58 ER: I mean, half-elf was supposed to see it
04:02:33 Devastator: ahh, I missed that bit.
04:02:37 syv: Though only if I can pull out after an ep or two, if I feel bad.
04:02:54 syv: I cannot recall if he specifically said she was supposed to see it.
04:03:04 ER: you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave
04:03:08 syv: But that's kinda supposed to be the _point_
04:05:48 Devastator: eh, thought it was the usual secret love letter bit.
04:05:57 Devastator: ..although, thinking about it it isn't like he's ever not gushed about elf.
04:07:19 ER: they didn't say it, but presumably they were referring to all the grafitii he did inside of the trial room
04:07:33 Devastator: ahh, yeah, that makes sense.
04:07:39 ER: which serves a clear purpose
04:07:47 syv: I didn't think he was talking about that.
04:07:54 syv: ...Though it'd make more sense.
04:08:08 ER: and garf saw it when he went in to do his own trial
04:09:41 ER: I assumed we all got that but I guess I was the only one >.>
04:10:35 ER: took some thinking to put together because they first mentioned it before it was shown on screen and presumably some amount of localization trouble
04:23:15 Devastator: when can we get started?
04:30:27 Devastator: 'the day Betelgeuse laughed'
04:43:31 syv: Gonna wait until after clouds, though.
05:25:56 Devastator: uh oh, youtuber clash on monday.
05:26:15 Devastator: LPL is getting that lock some robotics expert made for him.
05:28:39 Devastator: hope
syv isn't in trouble
05:29:15 syv: Sigh, no, I just have the attention span of a peanut.
05:32:28 ER: freindship broken with beaglerush stream, now anime with IRC is my best friend
05:33:39 Devastator: "Why did I take permanent effigy as a power? I didn't think it'd be this confusing!"
05:34:00 ER: which power would be most brainfuck to have always active?
05:34:25 syv: Oh this bitch is back, I suppose.
05:35:11 syv: Maybe something like mind control or inner monster.
05:35:31 syv: Nah, time stop is pretty straightforward to wrap your mind around.
05:35:33 Devastator: IM would also be rough, same with Relieving Plight.
05:35:37 Devastator: yeah, but it lasts forever.
05:35:46 syv: RP is just depressing and sad.
05:36:11 syv: Oh, so this is within the trial?
05:36:43 ER: memories from her "original"
05:36:50 Devastator: elf isn't in the trial, so yeah, this is protoelf.
05:37:26 ER: but with perma-RP, you might live forever! :D
05:37:45 Devastator: perma irresistable dance or DwR, maybe.
05:38:11 Devastator: maybe not quite the mindfuck, but they'd pretty thoroughly destroy your life.
05:38:39 syv: Lots of stuff destroys your life.
05:38:48 ER: ID would just be forever necrodancing
05:38:59 Devastator: MC I think you could get used to.
05:39:38 syv: I said mindfucky because you're constantly in the heads of people around you.
05:39:53 syv: If it autotargets _everyone_, that'd be rather overwhelming.
05:39:55 Devastator: which ones would be awesome?
05:40:34 syv: Prattle means you can't shut up.
05:40:54 Devastator: everyone you touch, for as long as you touch them, kicks ass.
05:40:57 syv: Shoukdn't we pay attention to anime?
05:41:00 Devastator: yeah, that's the winner.
05:42:18 syv: Well that's a helluva thing.
05:42:53 Devastator: yeah, that asshole's too much of a dickweed to not have invunerability powers.
05:44:47 Devastator: witch of something, called Pandora.
05:44:51 Devastator: also not immovable.
05:45:47 Devastator: apparently the crazy takes a bit to kick in.
05:46:59 syv: This dude is absolutely pride, I don't care what he claims.
05:47:02 Devastator: I hope we get to see this guy killed horribly.
05:48:15 Devastator: "That looked like that hurt."
05:50:19 Devastator: mmm, so this is why she's clingy about people not being there.
05:51:18 Devastator: I'm just going to call him bishi elf, if that isn't redundant.
05:51:29 syv: I think we only have one, so sure.
05:51:40 ER: he doesn't seem like he's be around long
05:51:52 Devastator: he's been in three episodes so far, I think.
05:53:31 Devastator: not bad VA work for kid Amelia there.
05:55:16 syv: Who thevfuck runs like that?
05:56:04 syv: That's a helluva disease, melting his boot.
05:56:23 syv: Didn't elf kill that in her movie
05:57:16 Devastator: and yeah, that was quick.
05:58:29 syv: Invulnerability didn't work.
05:58:36 Devastator: Maybe he has to be ready.
05:58:37 ER: prettyboy can still get knocked back
05:58:52 syv: Has to be ready would make sense.
05:58:56 Devastator: got whipped around by the first crack from unseen hand, but was bouncing them off a shield after a bit.
05:58:58 syv: He's always standing and watching.
05:59:09 Devastator: also seems to have some base invul, or neck crick woulda got him.
05:59:30 Devastator: don't fight that guy.
05:59:49 syv: Wonder if it's an attack battery.
05:59:58 syv: Hit him with kinetics, he returns kinetics.
06:00:01 Devastator: Emelia wears her hair ornament now.
06:00:38 Devastator: "That won't be necessary"
06:00:57 Devastator: is everyone invulnerable? ;-p
06:01:36 syv: Every one of them a pure sycophant.
06:01:47 Devastator: high-tier reality warper.
06:01:52 Devastator: well, you're fucked.
06:02:19 Devastator: teleported someone away retroactively.
06:02:41 Devastator: Hah, PWS-style quotes.
06:05:51 Devastator: yeah, I mean.. there's magic ones too, and lines like that could have come out of that game. The anime has much better VA.
06:06:10 Devastator: and, ugh, did the gate release puck?
06:08:58 Devastator: yeah, I mean.. well, we now know how rough the baddies are.
06:09:04 Devastator: and they're pretty rough.
06:09:43 ER: this season baddie could beat up last season baddie, standard DBZ escalation~
06:09:54 syv: Reminds me of PS:T's cutscenes for big spells
06:10:05 Devastator: this season's baddies are literally beating up last season's baddy.
06:10:24 syv: Well, no, we also have last season's first baddy.
06:10:31 syv: And then we have bunnies too.
06:10:48 ER: handsman could probably squish knifelady
06:10:50 syv: I would have liked to see Goku get eaten by bunnies.
06:10:52 Devastator: yeah. A lot of the game revolves around forming combos so you can pull those off, and then ordering them so they chain off each other. It does somewhat limit who you can carry, because some characters have really bad PWSes.
06:10:55 Devastator: that would be sweet.
06:11:41 Devastator: "Purify Weird Soul"
06:12:08 Devastator: The game is not terribly well written.
06:12:24 Devastator: it's a lot of fun to play, but agh.
06:12:50 Devastator: Heh, "Absolute Zero", wonder why I used that name. ;-p
06:14:45 Devastator: ..is puck behind that?
06:14:51 Devastator: I mean, he is supposed to destroy the world.
06:15:49 Devastator: scenes of suffering and tracksuits.
06:16:01 syv: Elf family hairpin is the same as loli's eye pupil symbols, I suppose.
06:16:15 Devastator: nah, loli has a butterfly.
06:16:36 syv: More shows need lethal bunnies.
06:16:50 syv: Though I'd slightly prefer lethal cat-sized cats.
06:17:07 Devastator: have willis learn "Mass Summon Cat"
06:17:19 syv: Is that actually possible?
06:17:40 Devastator: he's not good at summons, but.. you're going to a big, old city, and there's sidequest time for Act III.
06:17:47 Devastator: so yeah, learning stuff is on the plate.
06:18:02 Devastator: scary lady is scary.
06:18:12 syv: No I mean, is "Mass Summon Cat" a learnable spell?
06:18:27 Devastator: There's no conceptual problem with it, so.. sure?
06:19:15 Devastator: mmm, locking your evil doomsday device behind the most powerful friendly person in the world is actually pretty reasonable.
06:19:25 Devastator: it's just that she's a kid atm.
06:19:47 Devastator: well, she's reincarnation of chief witch.
06:19:52 Devastator: who had the powers of all the witches.
06:19:57 Devastator: proooobably has some potential, yeah.
06:20:06 syv: Yeah, but if she uses that power she's far from friendly.
06:20:27 Devastator: she did say she had a trump card.
06:20:43 Devastator: I'm very, very much sure we haven't seen her really fighting yet.
06:21:27 syv: I wouldn't be surprised if she gets a new power.
06:21:37 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
06:21:40 syv: But she's fought as hard as she can/
06:22:09 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:22:34 Devastator: these people need to die.
06:22:58 syv: I wanna see what her goals are.
06:22:59 Devastator: I'm okay with that.
06:23:06 Devastator: well, 'open the gate' isn't so good..
06:23:39 ER: killing the key could make things worse
06:23:40 Devastator: I don't think she could, willingly.
06:23:59 syv: We still don't know why she said her real name was Satella.
06:24:07 Devastator: That's the name of the witch of envy.
06:24:14 Devastator: she told that to Subaru to blow him off.
06:24:35 Devastator: no, that's insane. ;-p
06:25:02 Devastator: oh, Vanity is a jerk.
06:25:58 Devastator: Yeah, effective villain, but damn.
06:26:26 syv: "It was all for love, Beetlejuice."
06:26:29 Devastator: Envy got her, somehow.
06:27:48 Devastator: she stopped crying.
06:29:30 Devastator: that doesn't look like a yes.
06:30:20 Devastator: Yeah, I'm with her.
06:30:47 Devastator: ..but yeah, the OVA said she froze everything, so.. either it was going to be letting Puck out, or she has a LOT more power than we've seen.
06:31:16 Devastator: mindwiping the person you broke.
06:31:34 syv: She just seems so pointlessly awful.
06:31:45 Devastator: I think she lives for this, really.
06:32:23 Devastator: well, that's some trauma.
06:32:59 syv: Now I kinda wanna see how Beetlejuice previously responded to Elf.
06:32:59 Devastator: ..did we see pandora during the tea party? I'm having trouble remembering.
06:34:18 ER: so I think pandora might have made puck?
06:35:16 Devastator: might still be alive, then.
06:35:18 syv: The hungry witch was Typhon
06:35:30 Devastator: yeah, hard to kill a reality warper.
06:40:36 Devastator: "Loop stuff, don't worry about it."
06:41:31 syv: Oddly he doesn't actually have the honk
06:41:38 Devastator: It's more worrying without that.
06:42:35 ER: so a divine protection isn't in the big book?
06:42:35 Devastator: ..did you just come here to taunt Roswall? I mean, that's a fully worthy goal..
06:42:54 syv: That'd... actually make sense?
06:43:18 syv: Divine protection would definitely be something to get immunity to prophecy.
06:43:32 Devastator: "I regret I forgot to specify immunity to oracular slugs."
06:44:03 Devastator: Talky man talk too much!
06:44:26 syv: Can we end it there for tonight?
06:44:27 Devastator: permanent beacon of hope would be interesting.
06:44:32 syv: I'm having a hard time focusing.
06:47:10 Devastator: yeah, beacon would be weird to have up permanently.
06:49:15 syv: What _wouldn't_ be weird to have up permanently?
06:49:43 Devastator: mobility, regeneration..
06:49:53 syv: Mob is a passive, so of course.
06:50:08 Devastator: always on isn't much different.
06:50:09 syv: Any specific castable isn't weird unless it's automatically recast.
06:50:22 ER: severence would force you to kill things constantly or die~
06:50:51 Devastator: Projection wouldn't be too bad.
06:51:02 Devastator: you could live with Prediction.
06:51:05 syv: I forgot Martyr was a power.
06:51:25 syv: Always on I think means whenever you're hurt, someone else gets hurt.
06:51:38 syv: At L3, everyone around you is hurt whenever you're hurt.
06:51:51 Devastator: yeah. I might take it, but I think you ruled that woof doesn't do more damage from having big wounds.
06:52:26 syv: Prediction would be... weird.
06:53:15 Devastator: soothe and absolute faith would be livable.
06:53:34 syv: It's too short term to be The Golden Man, so you have agency in your life, but forever experiencing all the future possibilities and then most of them collapsing would just be... upsetting.
06:53:55 syv: Give yourself theme music.
06:54:14 Devastator: or anything, really.
06:54:20 Devastator: pet shoulder dragon?
06:54:32 Devastator: that'd be interesting.
06:54:55 syv: Run a game where you're allowed to have any one of these powers, but it's permanently maxed.
06:55:09 syv: Can't choose a power someone else has.
06:55:39 syv: Walking nuclear explosion.
06:56:25 syv: I like how I say you can voluntarily spend more than finale on soul nova.
06:56:34 syv: When the next stage up would just be "all your soul"
06:57:53 Devastator: mm, no, heal and steel doesn't discount.
06:58:23 Devastator: I thought it might discount your next offensive power use.
06:59:00 syv: I was very very careful with discounts and anything involving soul cost reduction/increase.
06:59:20 Devastator: empathy to transfer a finale.
06:59:49 syv: Just in general, game about conserving resources where the resource is actually limited? Best strat is to circumvent that, if possible.
06:59:49 Devastator: also, is 100% 100% of the baseline, in case someone has extra soul?
07:00:24 syv: I am virtually certain I've avoided that specific term.
07:00:24 Devastator: well, you normally top out at Radiant.
07:00:34 Devastator: but there are extra levels above that.
07:00:59 Devastator: I could see ruling the next up from Finale to be the normal max you can hold.
07:01:05 syv: Mechanically those extra soul stages work as overheal.
07:01:44 syv: So no, "-100%" would leave you with soul stages becaust you're at 123% or something.
07:02:06 syv: But yes, I considered that. Soul stages conform roughly to an exponential growth function.
07:02:41 syv: Not quiiiiiite, but mostly each stage uses about x^n points.
07:03:24 syv: And UltraFinale is well above the actual cap.
07:03:41 syv: Unless I include more ways to increase cap aside from Det, which is unlikely.
07:03:58 Devastator: feed seed to pumsy, get more soul.
07:04:10 syv: No, I've basically decided that one's banned.
07:04:17 syv: It's bad for a bunch of reasons.
07:04:18 Devastator: dang, wanted to use it.
07:04:21 Devastator: but understandable.
07:05:08 Devastator: probably only use it for sure if Alida is like the last survivor. Refill, then plus soul instead of using multiples.
07:05:45 Devastator: makes sense to ban it, though.
07:05:49 syv: I might bring it back in that case, on trash witches.
07:06:33 syv: The two reasons to ban it are A) the team is never going to have excess seeds really, so while one person could absolutely benefit, you're basically killing off an ally or two.
07:06:42 Devastator: not going to happen, because yeah, it's lethal.
07:06:47 syv: And B) you just delete the memory stories, which fucks over the plot.
07:07:41 Devastator: witches are too strong to build up lots of soul.
07:07:44 syv: That's fine for trash witches, but I can't really choose to not have you toss the plot witches.
07:07:57 Devastator: also can't really have trash witches, really.
07:08:11 Devastator: I mean, alida could totally go hunting, but even that would take a lot of time.
07:08:17 Devastator: even if it was a trash witch.
07:08:19 syv: By "trash witch" I mean like Maria and Lucy.
07:08:32 Devastator: lucy got a kill. ;-p
07:08:51 syv: Neither was plot relevant, and while their stuff was neat, it could've been swapped out for any other witch seamlessly.
07:09:57 Devastator: mmm, so is this the first plot witch?
07:13:15 Devastator: wonder what her name is.
07:13:42 Devastator: The pumsy loves you pic is always good.
07:14:26 Devastator: Pumsy does love you, after all.
07:14:54 Devastator: what do normies make of him again?
07:15:21 Devastator: I'm trying to think if Alida's seen him with normal people when she wasn't a woof, so would know.
07:15:33 syv: If they did, they'd react about as people would react to a magic pink tiger cub.
07:15:38 syv: Which I think varies a lot.
07:16:05 Devastator: I'm not sure. I think she was alone for Maria.
07:16:25 Devastator: This one she followed as a woof, so people were looking at the giant animal.
07:16:26 syv: She did play with him in the park, and her younger siblings could see him.
07:16:36 Devastator: big bit there, too.
07:16:40 syv: There were definitely adults there, who wouldn't have reacted.
07:17:16 Devastator: "So how many backflips can you do? I'll even let you use both legs."
07:19:50 Devastator: Yeah, that was a good update.
07:19:55 Devastator: ..I hope Prequel updates soon.
07:23:41 syv: It's amusing how you could reread the entirety of Prequel after every single update, and you'd never have another update to read after finishing.
07:26:46 Devastator: hah. More or less, yeah.
07:26:52 Devastator: although there were a few updates only a few days apart.
07:28:04 ER: take above statement but replace prequel with pumsey's seeds
08:47:29 Devastator: oh god, looking at the new ep of those NPC man d&d guys.
08:47:42 Devastator: they have a player who is having issues dealing with the effects of a +1 weapon.
08:47:49 Devastator: ie, he can't figure it out.
08:48:32 Devastator: (It's because he's trying to use a phone app instead of a character sheet.)
08:49:05 Devastator: ..no, he really is that dumb.
08:49:24 Devastator: ahh, we were all new, but heh.
08:55:08 syv: ...How the fuck do you come up with 1d15?
08:55:19 syv: I guess he's not familiar with dice???
08:55:33 Devastator: and yes, not familiar.
08:55:41 Devastator: the concept of +1 is a strange and wonderful place.
08:55:56 syv: But 13 at least is an understandable error.
08:56:20 Devastator: do note that this is episode forty-six.
08:57:34 Devastator: No, he's been there from the start.
08:57:48 Devastator: it took about twenty-five episodes before he figured out how to attack.
08:58:52 Devastator: I think he's just genuinely not bright,
ER.
09:10:08 syv: You can't play D&D for 25 sessions without knowing how to attack
09:11:03 ER: or not be playing very book-accurate dnd :p
09:11:37 Devastator: I've watched him,
syv.
09:12:01 Devastator: Ep 25 or so they had an intervention of sorts and made him learn how it works.
09:12:06 Devastator: it might have been 23 or so.
09:12:11 Devastator: also, they're not one session per video.
09:12:18 Devastator: it's like four or five videos per session.
09:12:28 Devastator: so it was like Session 5.
09:15:38 syv: Had they just been doing it for him?
09:15:52 Devastator: Basically. It was like "I do my thing" and then the GM would tell him what to roll.
09:19:45 Devastator: it got annoying when he got an ability.
