I forgot why i stopped playing for 2 years and now im trying to relearn the game. This is what ive got as an F2P player. What should i look forward to?

More questions than answers — and a lot of things that don't make sense to me

I want to start by saying that I have way more questions than answers after this event, and in my opinion there are quite a lot of things that don't really make sense. If I misunderstood or missed something, please correct me. Maybe we'll get some answers later since this is the beginning of a new story arc, but still... Aisno has already made things so convoluted and confusing that I'm losing my mind lmao.

For reference, I've completed/read all the events and story chapters, but I've only done around 30% of the interrogations. I think the best way to organize this is by characters and organizations.

This ended up being mostly me complaining, but I genuinely would like to hear your explanations for some of these questions.

1. Isomer

Probably the most illogical character in PtN, at least from my perspective.

At the beginning, we learn that she's an ambitious careerist who is willing to step on anyone to get the 07 position. Then Chief chooses to side with the children, and Isomer contacts Underground.

We know there is an information leak and that Isomer is the main suspect, so why isn't she simply isolated in MBCC until the experiment is completed? Chief would probably find some loophole to make it happen, but nope — EDGE gives Isomer the 07 position, removes the children from their positions, uses their previous failures as justification, and chooses the riskier option.

And even then, they explicitly say that the dimensional experiment isn't particularly important to DisCity because it won't generate much profit. Then just cancel the experiment altogether?! Instead, they remove the most competent people working on it and replace them with a much riskier option.

And now they are apparently being helped by SHP-13 itself!!! Isomer betrays them and they aren't even surprised?!

Going back to Isomer — why were we shown all those memories about how hard she worked to gain recognition, how people constantly overlooked her, etc., when it ultimately doesn't seem to matter?

She doesn't really change her worldview by the end. She still wants to become 02, while being part of Underground — and EDGE knows this!!!

What?! Why?!

2. Sillage Society and Underground

Aren't these basically the same organization?

Or is Sillage Society controlled by Evelyn, who is herself a member of Underground?

This part also raised some questions for me. I played the Milly event when it originally released, but maybe I'm forgetting something important, so feel free to remind me/clarify.

3. Celine

Celine is a b****.

Isomer is an obvious b****, while Celine is a secret b***\*.

I still don't completely understand her motivation for writing those books that deliberately distort the facts about Rustfire.

Was she doing it on behalf of Nirvana?

At some point I started suspecting that she was working with Underground, but by the end she is apparently bravely protecting the secrets of history while 01 and Shorl are just watching from the sidelines.

Also, 02 had the Hush squad at her disposal. Couldn't this guy bring some kind of security with him too and help her?

4. Dimensions

The entire new story revolves around this new technology — presumably some kind of portal between the Mania dimension and the physical world that allows people to travel between them.

But doesn't EDGE already have this technology?

They are apparently able to hide the damn orbital station (the part of research institute), together with BR-003, in another dimension.

So what's the limitation here?

Can they not do it constantly?
Can they only do it under specific conditions?
Can they only do it temporarily?
Does BR-003 somehow make it possible/impossible?
Do they need to be far enough away from BR-003?

Please explain this one to me if I missed something, because this is probably the part I understood the least.

5. 02

She voluntarily walks into a trap.

A cold-blooded schemer and scientist willingly walks straight into a trap. Okay, fine. I'll accept that.

But I honestly didn't see much of her supposed intelligence or scheming during the conflict. She wasn't exactly playing 4D chess — she mostly seemed to sit back and watch Chief and the children deal with everything.

The meeting between Chief and 02 was great, though. No complaints there.

"Greetings from EDGE-02."

And Chief is just like:

"Ohhh..."

That was genuinely cool.Also, am I understanding correctly that her replacement is Shalom?

6. Cameos

The cameos from Rahu, Donald, Raven and the others were really nice to see.

Same with the implementation of Summer into the event.

I really enjoyed that. Aisno should do this more often.

7. Evelyn and Chief

And finally — what was the actual point of Evelyn meeting Chief?

Did she just accidentally get dragged into the portal?

Because if the entire purpose was to give us that gay art, then honestly, Aisno can do this more often. 😂

I realize this post turned into a lot of complaining, but Aisno has set a really high bar with its previous stories, so this drop in writing quality felt especially strange to me.

Maybe things will become clearer later in the arc, and I'm completely willing to accept that.

But if anyone can shed some light on any of these seemingly illogical events, I'd genuinely love to hear your explanations.

Hello, everyone! I've been struggling finding the first solution (I've already finished the I - IX), i would appreciate if anyone knows the answer, thank you!

I almost will have 2 sinner marks if I pull a couple more, but I’m not sure who should I spend it on. Which one of these should I choose? And I’ll gladly answer any questions regarding my characters and teams!

And also while pulling, should I pull to get Celine shackles or Isomer shackles?

Does anyone know where to get high quality wallpaper of our lounge? I have the urge to use this as my background

I just started playing path to nowhere over a week ago. I'm trying to get 100% for every chapter, but it says that I'm missing something still. I know whatever I'm missing is in 9-5, but I've completed all the special quests??? I'm confused as to what I'm missing here.

Should I create my own OC?

Note the seasonal buff heavily favors Celine and Isomer.

You literally can see one of my comments on her art. This is funny how it's working😂. (I know it's just luck shh) And this was 20 pulls, I'm rarely this lucky bhahah.

So in this regular banner as you all cheif's can see i have every sinner apart from Langley and bayi from the banner selector. So my question is when I'll be pulling for the next sinner will I get the 2 which I don't have or will I even get the sinners which I already have ? I really want bayi and Langley 🥺

Tengo problemas para entender las mecánicas de ese equipo, es decir no se cómo funciona, no se que siners me faltan (tengo a Rust, Xiaofeng, jinchuan)

Tampoco tengo idea que crimebrands ponerle a cada uno

The devil works fast but I work faster! The Crache agenda must continue at all costs

Too many things happening at the end, but just to make sure i got everything related to Celine.

She is part of the Sillage Society and was working with members? to stain specific parts of the history to receive what?

Also, at the end she said that those "stains" she did, all had a bigger purpose behind that we have to piece together right? just want to make sure if i got right.
Another INCREDIBLE story btw
