Also, he's aware that Parson is the single biggest threat to him and having failed to recruit him he's got Parson within range of his guns if he moves fast. So he's gambling that he can subvert Fate by machine-gunning Parson here and now. You know, just like Lilith failed to do to Charlie himself because Wanda hosed up.

McSpanky posted:I just got caught up with the main story yesterday, working on the prequel book now. What a strange, fascinating premise executed with far more pathos than I was expecting. Yeah, for all the cutesy art, it really is a pretty horrific war story the more you think about it. "Popped to die" indeed. And kudos to Balder for taking the conceit to the logical extremes, particularly when a character is willing to work the game logic to his own benefit.

Lamhirh posted:I enjoy Charlie's characterization in this new update, and how he's contrasted with Parson. Charlie isn't ruthless and evil with his subordinates, but he kind of dehumanizes them here, while Parson has always been concerned about his notions of morality regarding freedom and choice to an extent that puzzles native Erfworlders.

Ajon posted:Has the concept of turns ever been clarified? What if a side never ends its turn? It does seem like the kind of loophole that Parson loves abusing. Still, I suspect there's probably some underlying game mechanics that punish an endless turn even if they haven't made it explicit so far as i can recall.

It is, its just from the wrong side. Bill loved her, or thought he did. Bunny went "Bad" to protect herself from his "love".

Of course the odds are good that Jillian ain't going anywhere near Transylvito. She's probably taking a shot at Goblin Knob because she's pissed about Ansom showing up on her doorstep. because reacting emotionally and instinctively rather than with thought out tactics is pretty much Jillian's thing.

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:Wanda was taken out in early February of last year. For more than 11 months now one of the main characters of the comic-- the deuteragonist, really-- has been out of commission and awaiting her fate. There's slow pacing and then there's that. Please. At least it ain't Order of the Stick. The Order's been fighting the same Frost Giants since August. By comparison, Erfworld's just rocketing through content!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure GK's gonna destroy/conquer the MK before all's said and done. Possibly sooner rather than later.

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:he's gone through three art teams and the pace has always been glacial, he's just the George R R Martin of the webcomics world Go read Order of the Stick or Necropolis to get Martin levels of slow. Erfworld can reliably get at least one update a week, that's lightning speed compared to some of his peers. (Granted, both OotS and Necropolis are actually better works, but we're only talking speed here.)

Also, it's been pretty common for people to change their point of view after being De-Croaked. Ansom and his views on Royalism, for example. Pre-death Marie like as not wsn't so stark about it, but the new and improved Marie? She's a flat out murder machine terminatoring her way through the opposition to save Wanda.

Donkringel posted:Poor Tondelayo. We are losing a lot of side characters with backstory. Duncan, Marie, Tondelayo. Basically the leiutenants of each side. Yeah, but there's a good chance that Duncan and Tondeyalo are coming back DeCrypted anytime now.

As the famous non-alcoholic drink, it's actually pretty apropos considering the effect Shirley's having on Charlie's Gardening habit, not to mention the damper she's putting on his notorious bad behavior. It still pains me, though.

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:I should, but book 1 erfworld was so good, it kind of bugs me to know that balder is capable of that quality but not doing it It makes one wonder how much of that first book as influenced by Jamie Noguchi mitigating Baldur's worst tendencies, ya know?
