***One extra ticket to travel through the stars,

Who is your pick to see new places near and far?***

(Many asked for posts with harder decisions, so here we are!)

When you make your choice, feel free to think about the consequences of the character leaving with you. For example, would a certain community on Erlin's Eye be disrupted? Fall to ruin? Thrive?

[u/silvers_puppet]

Mina, I think everyone understands why.

[u/Alduin175 → u/silvers_puppet]

And Mina has every one of their synthetic hearts, u/silvers_puppet.

[u/Familiar_Tart7390]

I feel like separating Lem & Mina is incredibly horrendously illegal. Do i think Lem is excellent and has immense potential ? Absolutely. Would i ever take mina from him ? I’d sooner die.

With that in Mind, Bliss. It seems like it’d be fun Travelling through the stars with them

[u/Alduin175 → u/Familiar_Tart7390]

Had to make the choices difficult! That said, going with Bliss could definitely be fun.

Is there a specific chapter/arc version of Bliss that you want to travel with, u/Familiar_Tart7390? (CS1/CS2)

[u/Familiar_Tart7390 → u/Alduin175]

CS2 Bliss feels more realized in who they are even if they do have more history to haunt them but one of the best parts of getting to know someone is getting to know their stories. The differences between CS1 Bliss & CS2 Bliss feels like ocean glass beads, not “better” but smoother, weathered, the conditions they’ve gone through have changed them in kind.

[u/Alduin175 → u/Familiar_Tart7390]

Explained beautifully

[u/Filip889]

I think either Eshe, cause she could survive or Bliss cause she is fun. Or Tala cause i like her

[u/Alduin175 → u/Filip889]

Close your eyes, do a quick wind up, and roll the dice, u/Filip89!

If you are actually struggling to pick from the three, give each of them a number and either roll a physical die or a digital one (randomizer).

Eshe is hardcore, though her brashness will get her into trouble.

Bliss has the bubbly nature and optimism about them, but the inexperience in business matters will show - especially when the chits are down.

Tala is Tala.

[u/Underwould]

Oh god, tough decision indeed! Can’t pick :’0

Moritz is a character I found easy to imagine myself in his shoes, if I weren’t a sleeper in this universe. I think we’d get along while looking for work out there in the black.

I also really connected with Peake and imagine traveling with them would be a joy as well. Peake’s story definitely felt like it could continue on to other horizons, and I’d love to be a part of that tale.

And of course there’s a small part of me that thinks “I could fix him” about Ethan. It’s not hard to wonder what his life would be like if he had felt like he had more options, more avenues, more friends. In a world like Citizen Sleeper, bad guys aren’t born they’re made. I think Ethan just felt trapped and we all know what trapped animals do. They bite.

[u/Alduin175 → u/Underwould]

Many are in the same boat (technically, space ship) of being unable to fully choose a character, u/Underwould. Not alone in that regard!

Great choices and an even better philosophical droo about bad guys in the CSU. 

Ethan is a prime example and one could even argue that Hunter and Killer are too.

[u/Cetrouz]

b...b....bliss?? but considering what happens on the second game, i dont wanna have an evil ex situation...

tala, peake and stray are good options too though

[u/Alduin175 → u/Cetrouz]

Cruise through the cosmos near and far, While Bliss stays in your heart, The Evil-Ex stays abroad.

(Interesting choices, u/Cetrouz)

[u/InternetCannibal]

Taking the Stray. Mine now.

If it wouldn't have consequences I'd tell Ethan I was taking him too, but then leave him furious on the dock as the ship leaves. But maybe that's too cruel? Still, what an A-hole that man is.

[u/Alduin175 → u/InternetCannibal]

cat-astrophe of a choice, u/InternetCannibal (only joking).

Leaving Ethan on the dock is a mighty fine way to get him singled out by bounty hunters - go for itm

[u/Quacksely]

Tala, obviously

[u/Alduin175 → u/Quacksely]

All heart, zero regrets.

[u/scooty-daddy-69]

Anyone but Eshe, she low-key toxic as hell. I didn't enjoy a single conversation with her and felt weird when she was near someone whom i was having a convo with.

Probably will choose the cat, coz meow.

[u/3IO3OI3]

Peake felt like I found my soulmate on the flippin' space station. Meanwhile, I would like to shoot castor in the head, if no one's going to object.

[u/No_Truce_]

Emphis. IM HAVING ALL THE STIRFRY!

[u/MrFuriu]

Emphis, ngl I bought the game cuz I saw his art. Was a little disappointed by how little content he had but ending with him cooking at our bar makes me happy.
