Why did Sirène not show any vision to Verso?

Why did Sirène not show any vision to Verso?

If it showed what he wanted most, it would be an 18+ game

how did they nail all the expressions in the game, it has some of the best facial expressions ive ever seen in a video game period aside from naughty dog joints

wow how do they cry on demand

Mommy didn't want to give even more PTSD to her dead son.

because the only thing he wanted was death

his desire is nothingness, so it showed him nothing

Holy fuck levels of bad ass.

Now play the fucking piano

verso, renoir, and gustave's mocap actor was also esquie's voice actor

What a chad.

Alicia is unironically the villain and doesn't deserve happiness. Now, time to grow up.

She spergs out when it’s his turn, so I think she saw he wanted to destroy the canvas

So does she
?

One must imagine Verso happy

I cried :(

MY HEART GOES OUT

Bitch has to go back to reality she can't be like her mom and play the sims forever. It's hard but it's the correct thing to do.

instead of playing The Sims forever and being happy, now she’ll read books alone in her room all day until she eventually commits suicide

Yeah, it’s definitely correct to force what you think is normal onto someone

so why are you shitposting here?

>instead of playing The Sims forever and being happy, now she’ll read books alone in her room all day

yes

The endless tower challenge

I have to fight 30 waves of trash enemies because muh 33 muh sacred number 2deep4u

I fucking hated that shit. 30 waves of shit you can one shot with any AoE

That fentanyl addict is having so much fun who are you to decide what's good for him? he's not harming anyone tweaking in the middle of the street

who the fuck is this kid btw?

file.png - 1601x900, 1.36M

One of Gustave's apprentices. The one that was closest to him from what we saw in the prologue

they don't age in ma*lle's ending?

You HAVE to let your fucked up kids make stupid life destroying decisions!!! It's not your life!!!!

This is how we got trans kids btw.

Because he's a completely self-centered sociopath who only pretends to do things for others because it furthers his goals.

He doesn't care about anyone but himself, it's made even more obvious with his reaction to Maelle gommaging painted Alicia. He only wanted to talk to her to feel better about himself, absolutely not caring about the fact that to her point of view, he's the guy who spend the last decades planning the murder of her family so that he could kill himself and would suddenly lecture her on how life is precious to stop her from killing herself.
Painted Alicia had more than enough of him, even in her farewell letter to him, she spent more time talking to Maelle and purposefully chose the words "Send me to my family" while looking at Verso to basically tell him he's not part of it for her anymore.

Maelle gets the Clair outfit

Verso gets the Obscur outfit

Is there some 2deep5u meaning to this or did I just miss the other version for each character? Maelle seems to be the darker of the two because she wants to basically live in a drug induced stupor forever. That's pretty grim.

If you think the ending is just about grief and escapism, you didn’t understand the game. You have to choose whether to save Maelle and everyone on the canvas, condemning Alicia to eternal grief, or save Alicia and kill Maelle along with everyone in the canvas. It’s a moral choice. Alicia and Maelle are not the same person, the game makes that clear the entire time.

I have Obscur on Maelle. I think it was from the Grandis in the train station.

She doesn't have to be a neet and rope, that was the whole point. Did you miss the entire third axom area with Alicia? that's what Renoir wanted for her, to spread her wings and reach the sky, which she sure as shit wasn't going to do playing VR dolls all day.
Sometimes saying no to your child's stupid wishes is the correct thing to do.

you can't visualize oblivion

you just missed them

bait for gestrals

This was absolute gigachad Verso moment.

Is this astroturfing?

new sales milestones regularly

w-w-w-w-w-w-w-why are people taking about it please talk about my bingbox

sorry your eceleb thread got bumped off the board anon...

But enough about Doom.

Stares at Sirène

Draws sword out of thin air

Refuses to elaborate

Is it just me or was Gustave beckoning Maelle and not waving?

I was so confident siding with Verso on the fate of the canvas, but the actual consequences had me legitimately second guessing myself. This bit in particular was so tangible and human that I couldn't help but tear up.

Because he's a completely self-centered sociopath who only pretends to do things for others because it furthers his goals.

says the rikaposter

He definitely is. I took it to mean that he's the only one Alicia isn't able to let go of. If the ending wasn't sad enough, that bit alone plants a seed in my mind that, if there was an epilogue to the epilogue, it could be that Alicia instantly goes to paint another canvas to lose herself in.

feel extremely guilty about having her brother die for her that she doesn't want to go outside anymore

now feel even more guilty that a WHOLE WORLD, her friends and everything died because she wasn't strong enough to beat a fake brother

There's no way she doesn't make herself a rope collar after that cutscene, there's a reason why some of the characters in this cutscene don't wave but beckon her to come.

Yeah neither end felt wholly satisfying. I wish there could've been a secret ending where you could convince Maelle to leave the painting of her own volition.

The fact that Maelle/Alicia tells Verso in Act 3 that she still prefers to be called Maelle shows that the Maelle side is still stronger than Alicia. Like it or not, Maelle would’ve chosen to save the people of Lumiere even without the memories of being a Paintress. Alicia wanted her brother back, Maelle wanted the people of Lumiere to live, which would also end up forcing Verso to stay alive, continuing to paint. The ending is a clash between Maelle and Alicia, not Verso.
That’s why Verso cried at the end. Alicia only appears when the screen turns black and white, that was the last time he saw his sister. From that point on, he would be a slave to Maelle, no longer Alicia’s brother.

Doesn't that make me an expert on identifying sociopaths?

Fuck that. "Good/Perfect" endings suck ass. I dont want everyone to win, I want people to question their choices and feel something. Everybody wins is not interesting.

He gommage inside her

91912345346.webm - 1912x804, 2.69M

yeah it's very likely she'll kill herself in that ending
I guess you can cope with him wanting to help her to live, because that's what he always wanted

you could convince Maelle to leave the painting of her own volition.

You can't make Alicia leave.
That's the point, she's extremely flawed.

she still prefers to be called Maelle shows that the Maelle side is still stronger than Alicia

If that's how you understood it, to me, it's just her larping as Maelle when she doesn't behave like her AT ALL.

That's the good thing about vidya, though: You can create the story you want. Wanna go for a tragic end? Knock yourself out. Wanna have a happy end? Go for it

if i wave at you to come over that means i want you to kill yourself

yeah, it's literally the meme with the other world with an anime girl inside the loop of a noose

She doesn’t behave like her at all because Alicia is inside her too, but Alicia is weakened and indecisive. That’s why the stronger personality, Maelle, took over and fought to save the canvas, while Verso fought for the weaker personality, because Alicia is the one he truly wants, the sister who actually cares about him, not Maelle.
The one who erased Painted Alicia was Maelle. Even Verso knows that, that’s why he shouts her name instead of Alicia’s.

I'm sorry anon I love E33 as much as you do but Bald Capybara 3 has mocap per each line said by the VA (the VA's had to do both the voicing and the mocap at the same time). E33 looks good in the 30fps story scenes, but the camp scenes are rather wooden and use stock animations.

That’s why the stronger personality, Maelle

What a retarded interpretation. She acts absolutely nothing like Maelle from Act 1.

I wish there could've been a secret ending where you could convince Maelle to leave the painting of her own volition.

For that to have even a chance of happening, you'd need Verso to be honest for one time in his miserable existence.

alicia.png - 1280x1592, 2.29M

She’s the only one who can stop her world from being destroyed and has just gained Alicia’s memories, How do you expect her to react? She’s a complex character fighting with herself, not just Maelle with white hair.
You’re the one retarded.

Painted Alicia had more than enough of him, even in her farewell letter to him, she spent more time talking to Maelle and purposefully chose the words "Send me to my family" while looking at Verso to basically tell him he's not part of it for her anymore.

The shit that poor girl went through is tragic. She spells it out, how they both want their respective families to survive, but she doesn't even get a chance.

Everything about her still being part Maelle comes from the perspective of painted people that don't know shit and from her clearly lying to Verso in that single conversation. She acts NOTHING like Maelle and all her actions stem from not wanting to stop playing with her toys and go back to being a crippled NEET.
Bitch doesn't even fix up Lumiere in her ending, you're telling me Maelle wouldn't do that? Delusional. Maelle dies in Act 2.

"Maelle" dies at the ending of Act 2

Because he's so egotistical his inner self is an empty void. He didn't even care enough to see a vision of his sister (his actual canvas sister Alicia).

wow, what an epic twist, good job caring for the characters retard, they're all fake and you just got trolled epic style

Why does the image quality look better/cleanier than COE33?

If that were true, then she would just leave the canvas, paint another one, and let her beloved brother have the peace he wants. The Maelle side being alive, the side that doesn’t care much about Verso, is exactly why her ending exists.

BG3 uses a custom engine with no upscaling/TAA shenanigans, while E33 is UE5 which renders a lot of effects by dithering and then smearing the resulting checkerboard pattern

Yeah same.

Any settings/mods to mitigate that on PC?

Neither does Verso for that matter.

He doesn't want happiness, he just wants to die.

Game is still doing great despite being single player and over a month old.

He doesn't deserve it either.

Rajeesh you've been posting in E33 threads for more than a month trying to convince us the game is dead, are you sure ubisoft will be happy with your progress?

taboo child

I have never seen evidence of this

retards still arguing over shitty endings about a shitty family

This game's story nosedived hard.
