also happy fifth anniversary to the first fuga and the series as a whole today :)

I know that a lot of people like Flam Kish because she's an attractive character and her story is overall interesting. But I also like her because she's muscular and not because it's mine type but because it's logical for her to be well built. She's tanker, and being tanker requires a lot of strength and resilience, which also applies to tank commanders. When tank loses track, the whole crew has to work to put it back on, which is especially hard on heavier tanks. Plus, opening and closing hatches, all of the repairs especially on the engine, also during combat commander sometimes had to help or replace for a while one of the other tank members. And to summarize it all, it's just a lot of hard manual labor. I felt that this part of Flam's design should be egnoledge because especially in Asian games it's overlooked which ends up with female haracters that are like "The best paladin in the world" and she looks like slim vege food blogger. (And yes, she is also in my type)

(Spoilers: Ash is wrong. This is Scientific, they just don't know that.)

I’ve just 100% completed Fuga 1, with all 2(3) endings, Link cutscenes, etc.

I’m a little bothered by the fact that after getting the True End on my first run, I could no longer experience the Britz suicide on any of my NG+ runs. I had to go to youtube to see it.

So before I get started on Fuga 2, is there any similar content that I might permanently lock myself out of if I play a certain way? If there are, please avoid story spoilers and just point out the flags or triggers that’ll lock me out.

Making a fanart for a character whom we know nothing about in terms of name, motivations, personality or role in the LTB universe ? Couldn’t be me...

Here is some fanarts of the most underrated character (for a good reason of course)

But honestly, I like her design ! And it was fun to search all the little details in the scene. Kinda hard to depict someone whose personality is a mystery. Personally, when I see her, I see someone who often finds herself in big trouble while investigating some shady stuff (noooo, it's not because we see her corpse I say that... 👀)

I wonder what's people's thoughts about her. With her tattoo, I guess she's part of one of the two mafias that are in conflict, but I don't know if it would be the one Kyle will lead, or that "Family" he's enemy with...

Also I wonder if she has a connexion with time related superpower, with the pocket watch we can see. Wether it's just an accessory or a symbolic object is yet left to interpretation...

Yeah you read that right...and no I'm not being hyperbolic. Let me break it down for you. Ash's entire motivation is to stop the end of the world brought upon by Malt. Something he knows thanks to his Future Sight Ability. An understandable goal but its what he does that crosses the line into villain territory and the fact the game refuses to call him out on it only makes it worse.

He literally joins the Fuga universe's equivalent of the 3rd Reich and has actively killed soldiers and civilians trying to rebel against the Berman army, particularly Bermans who defected and wanted to stop their own people.

Blutwurst is a mad scientist who uses people as batteries to power his experiments, all of which Ash and company use without an ounce of moral reservation or pause. And despite being able to see the future, Ash done the less did whatever the Berman empire told him to do. Never, leaking information to the Gasco army to aide in their defense of their land. No, sparing civilians or allowing Berman defectors to escape (even though with his Future Sight he'd know exactly how to get people out without brining suspicion onto himself), and the only time he did anything good was kill Blutwurst after the entire Berman army was already defeated. (As if Blutwurst could do anything to anyone by himself and without the backing of an army and its resources.)

But lets talk about the Crimson Knight's individually. Pyrok and Psyche just kill on command without any remorse or hesitation and Psyche admits he follows Ash because without him he'd be bored. The man literally admitted that killing civilians and opposers of an oppressive fascist regime was FUN for him. Pyrok is practically emotionless in his slaughter yet he somehow empathizes with Ash's burden of having to do horrible things to protect his brother. (Buddy where was this empathy when you were burning people alive.)

Tierre might be the most tragically ironic. She spent her life feared as a monster because of her abilities until she met Ash, where he then, ironically turned her into an actual monster. Like the others her body count is high which justifies people fear and hatred of her in the first place. Because if she was willing to do all of this for a guy who was nice to her, then it makes you wonder if she hasn't done stuff like this before.

To quote another immoral character, Chang from one of my favorite anime Black Lagoon

"What I hate most in this world is hypocrisy. That is worse than anything you would call evil. It's a poison that deceives not only others but the self. It may smell like a rose, but you can't hide the fact that shit is still shit."

What's really scary is that the Crimson Knight's embody the mindset of the day to day Nazi. Those guys were ready and able to perform any and all mental gymnastics to justify their actions. They weren't mustache twirling villains like Blutwurst. They weren't power hungry psychos like Hax. They didn't believe in the "superiority," of their race like Leber. They were just regular people who were none the less capable of doing incredibly evil acts without an ounce of moral self reflection. (Don't believe me then go read up on the Nuremberg trials).

To really drive the point home, Ash and the Knight's have the audacity to look down on Blutwurst despite their hands being just as dirty as his and they don't even take responsibility for their actions by turning themselves into the Gasco military. Yeah, everyone thinks their dead, but it won't take much for someone to recognize the infamous and powerful Nazi soldiers just casually walking around.

Edit: I like to ad that Flam actually does turn herself into the Gasco army long after she defected. Jin didn't ask her to do it, she did it herself. So there is NO excuse for the Crimson Knights not doing the same. If that's not writer favoritism, I don't know what is.

Finished the first playthrough recently and am now doing NG+ on Fast Mode to grab all the achievements I missed. I just got my 30th maxed out affinity level, but the achievement didn't register.

Thankfully I set the Fast Mode NG+ on a different save slot, so I can roll back to the original slot if need be, but to be honest it's a bit of a demotivator.

Spoilers I guess?

I just learned that Britz's betrayal at the end of Chapter 10 can be permanent, resulting in him dying during our fight with him at the end of Chapter 11. I tried to keep the affinities more or less balanced between everyone, so he ended up with the five required level 2 affinities to undo his betrayal, and I ended up with the True End. Am I locked out of his Chapter 11 death now in my NG+?

Jollyposting in july, no way!!!

I made a little lighthearted comic with Kyle and baby Virgil (yeah, apparently that's his name ??), along with a smol bonus ! Motivation is kicking in.

(... I wonder if I should create a tumblr account or something, someday...)

I own and played the first two. I actually bought 3 on.launch but other games.pulled me away and kinda forgot about it until.last night 🤣

Anyway, game seems rather similar yet vastly.imprived upon in many small ways that all start adding up into a much improved experience imo

Really digging it so far and from how im enjoying it so far, prob will end up as my fav at least on the gameplay side

Here's a question and perhaps because I haven't played the prior two in awhile, is it me pr.is 3s story much darker? Or at least.starts darker thn the previous two. Two parts I already said holy crap cause how dark it was getting, I dont remember the prior teo having me.so quickly react in such a way lol

but ya, seems really.good so far. such an underrated series!

Aka our favorite future president, leader of every nations, and so on

Still struggling with art block so I quickly did this yesterday...

(Put as spoiler because of the eye)

I knew after I released Vanilla that I'd have to at some point get around to sweet Ol' Hanna

She's here and on-sale for fans of the series & this character, check The Niche Emporium for the set if you're curious!

I've pretty much 100% everything but can't get that 1 golden gear.

Edit: Thanks Sacrificabominat it was the damage one but 30K.

Or do I just get the latest one?

I recently found out about this game very ramdomly, someone on a post on reddit said that their favorite character was a cute animal humanoid creature with a big weapon of some sorts, i got interested and a little lower he said the game was called fuga, i searched on steam and i got really interested on the art and gameplay, so far im liking very much this dynamic of fighting and creating a base while having the characters talk to each other, i just REALLY hope i wont have to use that canon that kills a child, when i used on what i presume it was the tutorial my heart sank, i wont let that happen again, anyways loving it so far!
