Lowkey the feat isn't even scaled yet, I'm more interested to know what you thought of the arc, the senti arc and the theatre of domination arc.
Err, that’s a lot of information to recall so suddenly… maybe if I were a pro mediatoker, I’d be more capable of giving a more qualified to give an opinion.
But strictly speaking, it was great. Otto really is the D1 Nietzsche merchant in fiction. Not just to the way in which he treats his plan for Kallen, but also ever since Elan Platinus (& earlier even in SE) in his relation with the figure of “God”, to the point that js like in a Nietzschean way, he takes over the role of God when becoming one. And then thematically abolishes his own role as a “slave”.
The title of the 14th mission “Beyond Will” is also likely a reference to the literal translation of “Über”:
In 1896,
Alexander Tille made the first English translation of
Thus Spoke Zarathustra, rendering
Übermensch as "Beyond-Man".
With this entire mission itself being a sort of dissertation by Otto on how humanity, by putting all their beliefs in a higher power and some immortal soul, deceives itself. Thus, as a living man can cause miracles, he has to ascend beyond being ordinary and impose his “Will to Power”, independent of the surrounding morality, and change the world around him.
It is also a reference to this. An actual line written by Nietzsche but also something said in the game itself, referring to how his obsession with Kallen transcends the distinction between good and evil:
That which is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.
And Kiana & Fu Hua were great too. Surprisingly a lot of plot twists regarding the Kiana family, which is kinda funny since I remember me being confused on why she called Dudu “Big Sis” in the new event lel. For ToD specifically though, I prolly like the Himeko dream sequence the most. And I remember sympathizing a lot with Fu Hua too. Def better than KeBin as a character hehe
