Haha, lol, you mean you can sell yourself out to the Zigs? Isn't that basically just a very elaborate suicide?

I remember that from the earlier LP of this game

It was some of the most tryhard edgelord poo poo I've seen in my life. It was Karen Traviss level garbage

What a heap of nonsense. A hero is someone who does great deeds. They don't have to be good, whatever that's supposed to mean.

Thus, as we are slaying many enemies of our people, adding to the fame of our name and species, we are absolutely the heroes of this story.

The Saga of Dr Orktopus, Psyshot, will be told to the survivors, either in celebration or warning, but that doesn't matter so long as it is told at all.

Wait, so if you pick doomelf (what are they again?) you are forced into the demon campaign or what?

Huh. So this Embers stuff isn't a fully fledged campaign? Because it seemed like it was building up for some big stuff; I was expecting raids into demon lands, maybe teaching them the power of love or some such.

Maybe some deific fratricide?

There's a bit of comedy in that our only option is always just to kill everything. Bit Borderlands-ish.

Combined with a bit of "are we the baddies?"

Yeah, I mean, I'm pretty curious where the whole arc of the game is going.

You got any plans for another playthrough or LP after this?
