Perkilator Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) Anyone remember the end of Chapter 3 of Heroes? Well, when I was playing it yesterday (love so far, btw. Downloaded it recently), I came across this. Never in my life did I think IS would go this far with writing. Edited September 19, 2019 by Perkilator I clickbaited by accident, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoncat Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Yeah, I loved that little tidbit/4th wall break/whatever you want to call it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) Because it's not worth talking about IMO (and I heavily dislike clickbait titles). All it implies is that Kiran's from a setting closer to our world. Edited June 3, 2018 by eclipse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etrurian emperor Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 One of the characters also mentions Kiran saying something about ''buildings which scrape the sky'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

property of nuvelle Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 It's implied in the story and by some character lines that Kiran is from our world, not much to it really. Such as Ephraim's quote: "You say weapons are shaped like your Breidablik back in your world? I'd like to visit and see that for myself."

I’m sorry if it is, but “I haven’t seen anyone talk about this” doesn’t really seem clickbaity at all (at least to me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Branniglenn Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 We talked about it plenty when the game came out. The first nine chapters have so little dialogue of note. But now it's almost a year and a half later. I can't think of a single thing we're still talking about a year and half later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because Kiran is the player, and talking to Kiran means he's talking to the actual player. Yes, it's clickbait. The title says absolutely nothing about what the thread is about, and you should change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucarioGamer812 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I think the game heavily implies Kiran is of our world, with the examples given and the brave heroes referencing people cheering their names, which could be seen as the CYL poll.

Roflolxp54 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 It's nothing more than an Easter egg and just further proof that Kiran comes from the modern-day world. This is further shown if the player has recruited Ephraim: Restoration Lord, who expresses curiosity at the idea of firearms and wishes to see them for himself. Similarly, Lloyd: White Wolf wonders about the idea of using the Breidablik to attack others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowi's Husband Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) I like the fact that our avatar in this is actually supposed to be us, and not just someone in universe we get to name. I'd love to get to be pulled into the world and get with Nowi personally. Edited June 3, 2018 by Nowi's Husband Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) 12 hours ago, Perkilator said: Alright, then, the title’s fixed. Not really. A fixed title would be something to the effect of "Technology in the Summoner's world". Stuff like "I haven't seen anybody talk about this" can go in the body of a post. A title needs to be focused on clearly establishing the topic of conversation so people can accurately determine whether or not it's relevant to them. "Scene after Chapter 3" alludes to the topic of conversation, but doesn't make it clear to people who don't remember off the top of their head exactly what was brought up when.
