Well the poll's pretty much decided so here comes the bit before that bit. Gonna see if I can't accelerate the production a little given the present opportunity.

There is no good deed we cannot undo on a whim. So obviously Sigma got completely freaked out by turning out to have white blood that his brain did weird brain things. Sorry, Clover. Can't contend with all-consuming irrational fear. Results will be displayed in the warehouse. Thank you for your participation. Ambidex Gates now opening. VLR OST: [Desperation] Listen in: [English/Japanese] Luna and I stepped out of the AB Room. I could see the others filing out of their rooms as we did. I didn't have an answer for her. All I could think about was that white liquid. What was it? Some kind of discharge...? Blood...? I was lost in thought when Luna spoke. Huh? Don't you want to see the results? Why? I already know what they're going to be. Her usually warm personality seemed to have gone cold. Whether it was because I'd chosen "betray" or because she'd noticed that something was wrong with my body, I couldn't say. Excuse me... [Music fades out] And with that, she was gone. I turned back to the projection. With heavy steps, I headed toward K, Dio, and Tenmyouji. Please direct your attention to the results screen. Points have been assigned or subtracted accordingly. Please check your bracelet to see your updated Bracelet Points. We won!

Shei-kun posted:I can't wait to see how this gets Sigma murdered Probably the same way we've seen him get killed before as well after getting 9 points. Because unless Sigma has been given explicit permission to reach 9 points by Phi, the game decides that reaching 9 points means that Sigma is a ruthless jackass who tries to make a break for it immediately.

Yeah, I'm not really a fan of how Sigma becomes an entirely different character at times when he gets 9 BP.

To be a little fair, running for the door is the only chance to escape he has. If he stands around there's no way they're not gonna try and tie him up at the very least. And if he doesn't care about the door, why would he suddenly betray to get ahead of everyone else? (My hand is weird isnt a very good excuse.)

In fact, his hand being weird only really damns him more in everyone else's eyes. Sigma just wrote and cashed himself a check to incapacitation at the very least unless he escapes.

VLR OST: [Sublimity] Listen in: [English/Japanese] Sigma has 9 BP...? See?! I told you! The bastard's finally showing his true colors! ... ... What the hell are you doing?! Clover isn't even voting! I have misjudged you. I never thought you would do something so cowardly. ... ... Perhaps it had been fear? I was scared by the white fluid that had appeared on my palm... Maybe that had been the tipping point, and I had decided that I had to escape as soon as possible, drat the consequences. If I got out, then the nightmare would be over... That was when I looked up, and saw the others staring at my hand. I quickly put my hand behind my back, but it was already too late. They moved toward me like wolves closing in for the kill. Listen in: [English/Japanese] He was cut... It must have been blood... But...why was it white? He's not human! Not human? No! What're you saying?! Of course I'm human! I'm one hundred percent human! Then explain that white stuff. I swear to God, I have no idea what it is! You have to believe me! I'm afraid you're not being very convincing... Oh, you're one to talk! We can't even see you! You could be a robot! Maybe that's not even a suit, that's just you! Robot you! However bad my amnesia might be, I am quite sure of my humanity. I am, without a doubt, not a robot. They probably just programmed you to think that! [Music fades out] We should take him down. I agree. Looks like there's no other way. Now that he's got 9 BP from stabbing Clover in the back, there's a good chance he'll try and get out of here by himself. Hey... Hold on a minute... Let's not do anything rash! ... ... ... Hn! VLR OST: [Strain] I didn't have a choice! I spun around and ran for the number nine door— *nondescript impact sounds* Let go of me! I was no match for all three of them. Before I could take two steps I was on the floor, pinned. The desperation was only getting stronger, however, and I writhed and twisted in a futile attempt to get free. Goddamnit! You have to let me go! This is all some kind of mistake! A misunderstanding! It's...it's a conspiracy! Ha! So, there's a conspiracy to...turn your blood white? You're a funny guy. Stop trying to get away! It's over! poo poo! Get off me! Let me gooooo! If you won't calm down, then you leave me no choice. I'd hoped we could avoid this... Try not to struggle too much. No! Don't—! [Music fades out] VLR OST: [Desperation] The first thing I felt when I woke up was the hard pain of a bruise all the way across my neck. K must have suffocated me... My head felt like it had been stuffed with cotton, and I had to put out a hand to steady myself as I stood up. How long had I been out? My foot bumped into something, and I looked down to see the injection gun. A glass vial labeled "Soporil" was still attached to it. The anesthetic... After choking me, they'd made sure I wasn't getting up in the near future. That meant I could have been asleep for a long time... I glanced around the room. It was empty, except for me. It took me a moment to realize what was especially odd about that... Even Quark and Alice had disappeared. What the hell's going on...? That was when I noticed it. Quark and Alice weren't the only things that had disappeared. Two other things, two other very important things, were also gone. For a long moment I just stared, dumbstruck. What I was seeing couldn't possibly be real. But there it was, a smooth cross-section of my arm where a hand should have been. A thick, white liquid dripped slowly from the stump. Wha...what is this... Oh God oh God oh God oh God... [Music cuts out] A scream clawed its way out of my body, taking my mind with it. Then after that...nothing. What an efficient solution. Next time we'll actually do the poll result.

I think my favorite part about this bad ending isn't that they just knocked him out, but they also chopped off his hand to get his bracelet and proceeded to vote ally enough times together to leave without him. Turns out the best way to unite a whole group is to give them one enemy.

I was really glad that you decided to go back and do this ending. This is one of my favorite bad endings.

Turns out the best way to unite a whole group is to give them one enemy. That's not necessarily the case. They needed his bracelet to get through the next set of Chromatic Doors, it doesn't mean that they've all escaped. Also this seems to suggest that Sigma can survive losing his hand without dying. So he'll probably have to ask someone to remove his hand in his -1 BP plot lock.

I'm sure this has come up at some point over this thread's lifespan, but does the game actually tell you when you've seen whatever is required to open a plot lock?

Nephrite posted:I'm sure this has come up at some point over this thread's lifespan, but does the game actually tell you when you've seen whatever is required to open a plot lock? No, you have to notice on the story tree that the icon has changed. E: which, I suppose, could also mean yes, if you view it another way. The lock icon lights up when you can go past it, but nothing points to that to alert you.

This was always one of the more disturbing game overs to me. Peeps drug a dude and cut off his loving hand and just leave him locked up alone. That's loving cold.

I love how up till this point that anyone else who got 9 BP somehow managed to get out the door (including us when Phi and Dio also had 9 BP), but this is the one time where when it is one person being us, everyone else is suddenly competent and manage to keep us from getting out the door.

Sigma's also freaking out and taking the time to argue with everyone else, whereas Dio's was more BYE HATERS

Sigma just hasn't planned to hit 9BP until the moment he actually sees he gets it. Everyone else seems to know exactly what they'd do to escape and carry it out while everyone's distracted with the board.

So I mean... seems obvious how we survive the needles now. We just have to chop off our hand. It isn't human after all

I was under the impression he jumped timelines, like when he finds Alice dead in his route. Though, the thing that baffles me is why they don't have Sigma restrained. Couldn't he just open the 9 door now that he doesn't have to worry about a bracelet at all?

Waffleman_ posted:This sounds a lot like dying to me. well given the way those chucklefucks were, they probably just chopped his hand off and left him to bleed out. Amputating and immediately staunching the bleeding is definitely more survivable. and the writing is exactly characters are only competent when it's to screw the player over.

The number 9 door won't unlock without a bracelet that has 9 points, and it and the chromatic doors re-lock after a short time. So if the others ditched him he's not really able to go anywhere he couldn't before.
