Title: Spoilers I guess Author: _Ruin_ Pastebin link: http://pastebin.com/SX6wLBxt First Edit: Friday 20th of March 2015 08:53:23 PM CDT Last Edit: Friday 20th of March 2015 08:53:23 PM CDT 8:56:50 PMRuin the worlds have themes. Kind of. 8:56:58 PMRuin Spoilers 8:57:07 PM* GearBox preps the brain bleach 8:57:54 PMRuin First seven realms, seven sins. Next four are four horsemen. Last one is pretty much a boss rush and final boss. 8:58:15 PMGearBox >Seven Sins 8:58:21 PMGearBox >Four horsemen 8:58:23 PMGearBox ... 8:58:30 PMRuin I get it, edge fest. 8:58:35 PMRuin But whatever 8:58:39 PMGearBox well, im norse, so i dont really give a fuck 8:58:53 PMGearBox feel free to make it edgy 8:59:04 PMGearBox but not super-edgy 9:00:13 PMRuin Well, the seven sins realms are all divergent versions of the same timeline, each ending up radically different from the others because of who ends up in posession of a certain artifact. 9:00:37 PMGearBox which artifact? 9:01:11 PMRuin Orb of Omniscience. Lets the user see pretty much whatever they're looking for. 9:01:20 PMGearBox ... 9:01:44 PMGearBox not sure i want to ask, but which 7? 9:01:56 PMRuin In the first realm, it ends up in posession of one mare out to make a fortune. Realm of greed. 9:02:23 PMGearBox Random anon-mare de 9:02:27 PMGearBox *den 9:02:27 PMRuin Nope. 9:02:33 PMGearBox orly? 9:02:56 PMGearBox hmm 9:03:33 PM* GearBox motions to continue on 9:04:57 PMRuin Ruin gets it in a heist on the equestrian digsite. Ater figuring out what it does, she uses it to exploit the world of finance to turn Four Cannon into an independant state, a kind of bastard child of New York and Vegas. 9:05:09 PMRuin That's all I'mma spoil on world one. 9:05:40 PM* GearBox motions again to continue to world 2, and next time to just continue to the next world when he says next 9:06:24 PMRuin World two is gluttony. Cannibal cult plaguing fc. still needs some tweaking 9:06:40 PMGearBox >Cannibal cult 9:06:47 PMGearBox is it inbred too? 9:07:05 PMRuin Depends on who I decide is in charge I guess. 9:07:11 PMRuin Dunno yet 9:07:29 PMGearBox [NEXT!] 9:08:17 PMRuin Lust. Less action, more whodunnit serial killer mystery in which someone is killing off the man in couples around town. 9:08:36 PMRuin Saying who's in charge is too big a spoiler here 9:08:54 PMGearBox [NEXT! AGAIN!] 9:10:24 PMRuin Four. Able, a reclusive leader, runs four cannon and most of equestria. Magicpunk themed world. Conspiracy type things. 9:10:32 PMRuin It's Sloth. 9:10:52 PMGearBox *Next!* 9:12:42 PMRuin Five, Wrath. Liven. Black magic and whatnot. He gets the orb by killing Able (because he knew Ablecouldn't be trusted with that kind of power) and is driven out of town. He comes back with an army of ... things to get his revenge. 9:13:01 PMGearBox zambes? 9:13:24 PMGearBox or something... a bit darker? 9:13:27 PMRuin And fleshwarped pones he'd abducted from the town over time. 9:13:52 PM* GearBox oh gods and nearly pukes on his keyboard 9:14:01 PMRuin Too cliche? 9:14:02 PMGearBox *Next, before i puke pls* 9:14:06 PMGearBox no 9:14:11 PMGearBox to vivid a visual 9:15:43 PMRuin Six. Pride. A seemingly utopian world run by the ambitious Nova Flux. The only other world to have knowledge of the multiverse, which will be hinted at/alluded to over the last five worlds. Something's not quite right though... 9:16:00 PMGearBox >not quite right 9:16:05 PMGearBox its a utopia 9:16:09 PMGearBox what do you expect 9:16:20 PMGearBox every system is flawed 9:18:00 PMRuin Seven is Envy. Welcome back to the home world. The Equestrians got the orb here, and with it found out about our multiversal travel, which they try to claim for the good of the kingdom. Be prepared to explore the mainland, boss may or may not be purple. 9:18:49 PMGearBox >may or may not be purple 9:18:54 PMGearBox does it have wings? 9:19:05 PMRuin Possibly. 9:19:13 PMGearBox... 9:19:14 PMRuin So, what do you think thus far? 9:19:23 PMGearBox goddamnit purple smart... 9:19:26 PMGearBox very nice 9:19:37 PMRuin Any ideas? 9:19:37 PMGearBox 6 is semi-cliche 9:20:05 PMGearBox not for 1-7 9:21:38 PMRuin Big thing though, my plans for the bosses are less 'hit it until it dies' and more 'puzzle bosses where you have to use the environment to your advantage' 9:21:54 PMGearBox >puzzle bosses 9:22:19 PMGearBox can we at least have some that ARE 'more dakka=less time'? 9:23:03 PMRuin A few. greed should be pretty straightforward. 9:23:49 PMRuin Robo Able and Nova Flux may be more puzzle-y 9:24:33 PMRuin Liven's you probably have to find and destroy some kind of phylactery first. 9:25:02 PMRuin 'Lust' should be a fight after the investigation parts. 9:25:53 PMGearBox hmm 9:25:55 PMRuin Gluttony will likely be a horde battle 9:26:06 PMGearBox so, waht are the plans for 8-11 9:26:36 PMGearBox if any 9:27:01 PMRuin Mostly classic dungeons with absurdly overpowered bosses. Really simple,each with some kind of twist. 9:27:18 PMGearBox >absurdly overpowered bosses 9:27:38 PMRuin Dude, four horsemen of the apocalypse, whaddya expect? 9:27:54 PMRuin War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death. 9:28:09 PMRuin Go big or go home, ya know? 9:28:15 PMGearBox so requesting a sound-bassed heavy weapon wouldn't be out of the question? 9:28:28 PMGearBox yes, the misspell was intentional 9:29:33 PMRuin Might find something like that in one of the techier worlds. Did have a plan for some sort of music-based combat buffing to make bards useful 9:29:52 PMGearBox :3 9:30:23 PMGearBox mind you, i have no intention of going bard 9:32:13 PMRuin Last world is a boss rush, where you face off against the incarnations of various forms of magic as you ascend the dark tower at the heart of the multiverse, because I'm a sucker for the dark tower saga. Then a surprise cameo final boss and a final choice of world-shattering importance. 9:32:32 PMGearBox|AFK>final choice 9:32:44 PMGearBox|AFK[What if there can only be one?] 9:32:56 PMRuinDAMMIT! 9:33:03 PMGearBox|AFKholy shit 9:33:13 PMGearBox|AFKdid i just guess that and be right? 9:33:24 PMRuinWait, how exactly did you mean that. 9:34:03 PMGearBox|AFK[there has to be one person or pone to make the choice, whether by being ded or backing down] 9:34:34 PMGearBox|AFK>person because possible change back because >multiverse shenanigans 9:34:37 PMGearBox|AFKspeaking of which 9:34:56 PMGearBox|AFKpossible regaining of human form? 9:35:16 PMRuinNot what I had in mind, but I actually like yours better 9:35:39 PMGearBox|AFKwhat did you have in mind? 9:36:12 PMRuinWhat I'd thought of was one of the crew had to sacrifice themself, and themself in every timeline, to keep the whole shebang from falling apart. 9:36:26 PMGearBox>every timeline 9:36:57 PMGearBoxwouldn't that break it? 9:37:41 PMRuinNo, the moment they step into the thingy, they're trapped in the tower and every other incarnation of them dies at the same time. 9:37:51 PMRuinAs I said, I like yours better 9:37:59 PMRuinI suck at endings 9:38:23 PMGearBox"i suck at endings" - Ruin 2k15 9:39:06 PMGearBoxdont worry, you arent the only one m8 9:39:23 PMRuinAlso, there may be random otherworlds that have nothing to do with main quest. 9:39:47 PMRuinHaven't planned them out much yet. 9:40:00 PMGearBoxmaybe make Fallout-based one a side world? 9:40:17 PMRuinYeah, why not. 9:40:29 PM* GearBox squees 9:41:11 PMRuinI was also thinking like the exact opposite of four cannon, where horse versions of us ended up in the human world and were put into a prison camp. 9:41:26 PMRuinBecause fuck it, why not? 9:41:37 PMGearBoxyes 9:41:50 PMGearBoxbut dont expect me to take that too well IC 9:42:26 PMRuinAnd a world without the orb, where Booze ended up in control because we shouldn't have trusted the bartender. 9:43:05 PMGearBox>Booze ends up in control 9:43:17 PMRuinIt's the only logical outcome. 9:43:19 PMGearBoxso everyone is drunk 25/8/367? 9:43:32 PMRuin You mean we aren't already? 9:43:37 PMGearBox no
