Thread: .Hack RP "The World"

Sorry for double-posting, but I forgot to post this conversation like I said, and the edit button disappeared from the above post already.

That sounds good.
Then what?
JET73L says:
We try to use it to trap him, since he's worse than a data bug, maybe as bad as a phase, and somehow innis gets drained or released.
Subaru says:
That would be bad if Innis is released.
I like it.
^^
JET73L says:
If he's released, we go after him, uneventful battle. Once he's drained, Morganna staryts getting angry.
Things get worse, we have to go after Corbeinik and Morganna directly.
Subaru says:
Cool.
I hate Corbenik. Soo annoying to fight :]
His rebirth ability is annoying.
JET73L says:
Ah! I've got it! Helba has a patch that should work to neutralize Morganna, as long as the characters kkeep her and Corbenik occupied, but then Azure Flame meses things up after having snapped, hits her with the (partial strength and unaimed) data drain, then the helmet breaking thing where we see her face.
Subaru says:
Haha! That's awesome! I wish I thought of it :]
JET73L says:
Then the others have to just wing it to not get killed, which is when Mia tries to sacrifice herself to hold Morganna;s core code in place. That's when Jechtael does the data-drain-through-azure-flame's attack (remember, Jechtael has the bracelet on his left wrist, not his right, which now turns out to be more than useful foreshadowing.)

Thanks.
What do you want to happen at the very end anyway?
JET73L says:
I'll send you what I'm planning on, going into trhe story after the timeskip with an overview of how the Golden Age of The World is definitely ending since Aura disappeared, but if you wanted to suggest anything...
At the very end, I would like everyone meeting in real life, with Mirei and everyone else awake, to hold a sort of wake or tremembrance for the AIs. Not just Mia and Random, but all of them in The World, and then a biit of inspirational yet wistful "looking toward the future."
Subaru says:
That's so sweet. I think that would be the perfect ending to the series.
Maybe even have Helba meet them. Possibly as a bystander so as not to ruin her identity.
^^
JET73L says:
That would be cool.
So, do you agree with the theory that Helba is a team of hackers?
Subaru says:
Kinda. I'm not so sure though (talk about an oxymoron XD)
JET73L says:
I prefer to think that she's just one player, but could have other working with her or something.
Since in all of the supplemental material and spinoffs dhe seems to be just one person.
Subaru says:
Yeah. Also when you hear an avatar speak that is the player talking into a microphone and so when you hear Helba she only ever has one voice. Thus supporting the idea of her being one player.

Nice with the our conversation by the way ^^

Anyway, I have noticed that too - how several sources seem conflicted in their content - makes it annoying when you are trying to read up about it.
It makes you wonder what ones are right.

Yeah, I know. Best I can tell, Mireille is about seven (I just realized some interesting metaphors for Aura/Zephie), and Elk is 20, or just under. Brigit and Jechtael are cool, since they're new characters (mostly), and Mia and presumably Random don't age. I'm still not really sure about how old Subaru is right now, and nobody knows how old helba is. I don't think Balmung matters.

As to the subject of Tsukasa, I think his player probably stayed away from The World mostly, since it would be weird after Mia attached herself to Elk. She might play as a different character, along with Subaru when she's not on official business, but considering the issue has never been brought up in any canon source, I doubt Tsukasa ever really returned.

So, any comments? Things that have been bothering you, like plot holes, or any comments?

(I still think it would be cool for Elk to have a handheld computer to log in if he ever gets a message from Mia, considering she only exists in the World. Especially considering the AIDA events.)

I do think Elk would have a hand held computer or PDA but I was just remembered something - doesn't Mia actually get deleted? I remember reading somewhere - .Hack wiki I think - that the administrators tracked her down and basically destroyed her data and used the Macha part of her in their AIDA project or something. Then wasn't it shortly afterwards that Elk changed his character to Endrance and the Macha AIDA attached itself to him.

[Is this topic still alive?]

Oh. I just read through the topic and well, when is the 2nd part comeing? Its already been 3 months. Hopefuly its not postponed.

My, my. It's been a while since someone's responded to this.

I'm sorry but Jet and myself are in the middle of trying to come up with a second arc to the story. So unfortunately, it is postponed until further notice.

Dont worry I can wait a while. Im on plenty of forums so ill check every so often. Good luck.

See you soon hopefully.

God willing. If you need help on it just send me a copy. I have an idea door jammed open for this rp and I [somewhat] know the plot of the .hack series

I will seriously keep that in mind. Thank you. However I feel it will be back up in no time.

Alright. The offer will stand untill then. Good luck.
