if they wanna delay the game they just have to say so without the bs trolling

I'm not saying there is a delay, I don't think it is.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that the Xenpurgis may have had something to do with the nuclear explosion in the Miera region that Erin told us about, and that the surfboard guy with the Xurkitree may be part of it.

Of course! Why didn't I think of that? That mysterious figure did seem to know an awful amount of info about the protagonist's repressed memories that rendered them unconcious and I for one still suspect that the two mysterious figures we've seen so far could have ties with the two known individuals who were a part of the incident in Miera aka that conniving red haired girl that toyed with Keta/Kenneth's life and the surfboard guy who also sees the protagonist as they enter Valor mountain

I mean... they worked hard for months, to give us another piece to the puzzle, and since they know everything that will happen in game, let them have fun with our reactions... or something.

they made the game,  of course, they know what will happen

If that's the case, that the red haired girl from WLL is Freya and the surfer dude is Lord Xenadin, then I hope we get to see more of them in V12.

I think it has been p much confirmed that the former is still alive, as Saki believes she saw a girl named Freya in Aquamarine Cave (along with a blue whale, which I presume is Kyogre, though I have no idea why this would be). She also said she had red hair, which lends further credence to the theory.

I just feel like I imagined Lord Xenadin to be a little less... odd? idk with a name like that I guess I shouldn't have.

hey! so uh. that was a thing.

 

A lot of shit has been happening the past two days or so, but to put the long story short;

Someone apparently has managed to plant a keylogger on the shared dev drive and took control of most of our computers. We've managed to remove it from the drive, AFAIK everything's back to working as should and we've tightened up protection so this shouldn't happen again!! 

 

But unfortunately we actually did lose a couple of scripts that were added during the beta while everything was freaking the fuck out and we can't roll back to a version where it's not gone, so unfortunately we'll have to delay the game's release a little bit longer untill everything's back in place and ready to go. This is also why the beta has been set back to 55% -- because now we need to test again if everything is working as it did before.

 

Also, I'd like to formally apologize if anyone was thinking that the game was gonna come out this week and that this was our good ol' tradition of trolling the fans at the end of the dev cycle, because we actually had something completely different in mind for the whole thing... Just that, well, this whole shitshow happened in between?? ngl this is probably the scariest fucking thing that's happened in the entirety of the time that i've been helping with the game (i'm talking about like 5 years and thats long hrgrhgh) and i'm still actually reeling??? but i'm just happy that i can actually log in to my account still because holy fuck this was not good for my heart

 

Again, sorry that we have to make you guys wait longer than we hoped for 😭😭 We're doing our best to get back up to speed!!

 

You thought you got rid of the problem and that I was gone? That's cute.

Definitely not a keylogger, for one. If you're in Beta, you have copies sent to multiple people. C'mon now Zumi. 

 

Or considering the last line, who do you want me to call you as?

It's not like they said it'd be out on a certain date and changed it. The game will come out when it's as ready as they can make it.

 

 Until then they're gonna have fun and we can speculate what it means. 

 

.I'm personally getting vibes from bladestar

You read my mind. That's the hunch I have for now given that we have two unidentifiable characters who know so much about Aevium and those who live in the region not to mention like Erin said the first inhabitants of Aevium came from Miera so who'd know the region better than them

Are people legitimately mad?  Guys, these people are making a game for no profit.  I don't know how the hype has been taken away.  Actual companies have set backs, yet hype is still around.  I for one am still excited.  As I'm sure many others are, I just can't tell who is sarcastic and whose not

I know right? Reading all those angry reactions is giving me some serious secondhand embarrassment. Waiting a little more than you expected for the game isn't going to kill anyone.

I would hope nobody is mad, because you're absolutely correct. Me personally, I'm a ball of anxiety that's been patiently waiting for V12 to release, and we're at the peak! We're so close! Time is but a number, because unless they explicitly say it and mean it, V12 will be released no doubt. So yeah, anyone that's mad at being trolled needs to get a reality check.

Kinda outta nowhere but I think this episode is going to focus a lot on Erin. Considering where we left off, it would make sense. There are still so many unanswered questions about her too. Like where did she come from? Was Souta her biological grandfather, or was she adopted by him? Why did Allen & Alice call her "Eriena" ? I tried researching the name but I couldn't really come up with anything. Also, the last moments of chapter 13 make it seem like some power is going to be awakened in her, like with Melia in the Ruined Future. 

Maybe the glitchy teases are related to the eight-bit world? Alice & Allen talked about how they spent "so much time together" with Erin, and she seemed confused about it. Maybe this will go into depths about where / when / why / how this occurred.

 

On another note, does anyone else think Erin might be one of the darknesses? There's just something about her that feels off to me, like maybe she's holding back or not telling us everything about her. For one, she reacted weirdly when she saw Melia for the first time, implying she knew someone who looked just like her. She never explained anything about that, either, and it still hasn't been addressed. She also uses an Absol, which is the symbol for the Dark prophecy (contrasted with Melia's Gardevoir , the symbol of the Light prophecy). There's also a lot of Greek Myth references throughout the game, and Erin's name could come from The Erinyes, which is the term for the Greek Furies. They were known as "those who walk in darkness," and were hellbent on serving vengeance. I won't get into specifics about the mythology, but what was even more interesting is that they were born into the earth along with two other types of creatures---one being the giants, and the other being nymphs called Meliae. What an interesting coincidence.

We have seen her get mad quite often, especially towards Aelita. She's shown to be pretty judgmental, and, according to Flora, an incredible analyzer. 

If she were one of darknesses, she would be the perfect candidate for the one of Betrayal.

 

idk, just a theory. I'm interested to know what you guys think about her.
