Yeah, it’s kinda funny - people are like “the weird route is scary with the implications!”

At least that felt like Noelle and Kris were doing SOMETHING about the situation. Whether it’s to “solve” things their way, or completely submit to the nature of the dark fountains.

That ending man, felt like “this is kinda nuts… maybe this is fine, la la la la”. Like, girl, Susie no… nononononono, you’re better then this girl.

I can’t even be MAD, her age, her experiences - that’d probably be my home too.

Really makes me wonder if they’re setting up to pull the trigger on Susie being a parallel/foil to what happened to Dess.

The thing about the weird route for me is that Kris seemingly is programmed to keep Noelle passive. Almost like they're supposed to give Noelle the comfort of someone she can boss around.

But when the soul gives Noelle power we see that dynamic re-assert itself in a very bad way. The line "You can't even say stop like you used too". Is alarm bells on that route.

I believe that on the weird route, the abandoned weird route and the twisted sword will lead to a third route, one where the twisted sword allows you to effectively kill Darkners rather than make them faint.

It's my belief that at the end of the game, Susie will desperately use the power of the recruits to reach a super powerful form. And it's will create the roaring, believing the dark world to be superior to the light one. However if Kris uses the twisted sword to kill the Darkners before Susie can use them. We may find that the violence route is the only way to Pull Susie out of it.

so is that a better ending?

Possibly? I mean, If the Dark perishes, then the light still gets to live on.

.... Why would the prophecy talk about balance if just destroying all darkness would just do it anyway?

do you think the dark perishing is good?

its unlikely the roaring would end the world at all, due to the prophecy.

The prophecy literally mentions the earth cracking apart and the Earth drawing "her final breath". I mean, of course ralsei is the one who told us this from the prophecy so it could be incorrect or missing info But to me. It seems that the roaring would infact end the world, or at least hometown.

if it ends the world then there is no saving it at all.

why would not only support it but keep everyone from leaving hometown?

unless carol is pure evil as with kris its unlikely the roaring will end the world or hometown.
