i was kind of tired of the story when part 2 of the breaker ended and i don't really care that it will never be continued. veritas, though? it ended on a ridiculously interesting cliffhanger and it kills me that it will never get a second part.

Doc Hawkins posted:Well, they'll certainly help you get over the feeling of disappointment at an unsatisfying ending! So I've picked up from the comments here  Anyway, for actual content;  BioMeat is a pretty fun suspense series about a bunch of artificially created creatures (the titular Bio Meat) designed to eat all the garbage in Japan, and what happens when they escape containment. I first found out about it thanks to one of those old rear end "What has kirby been eating?" topics in GBS so that's my story.

The author of Bio Meat has a very... interesting tendency of drawing villainous NPCs physically ugly, giving them motivations that amount to "evil for evil's sake" and then getting gruesomely killed, while the handsome protagonists escape by the skin of their teeth every time. This is a concurrent theme in all of his series.

Biomeat is great and kind of gave me a big Speilberg/disaster movie vibe, with the plucky young kids saving the day from the dumb adults who get eaten to gently caress. The 'sequel' of the second act even feels like a sequel you'd see in that kind of genre where they dial it up 200%. "Surely this time the highly-destructive bioweapon will not escape containment and run out of contr oh gently caress."

There's a couple of lines that sort of fall into word salad for me, but I've pretty much got the plot. Looking forward to seeing where it goes.

Baam actually met up with most of his old crew (including Yuri, from all the way in Chapter 1) and that's led to some decent developments.
