The future course of actions is p. obvious:

Will fight:

 

[spekkio]

It's better be...

Armageddon. Chapter 2, Act 1 - Crumbling Capital

The Capital of Titania is literally crumbling. Meet King Gallon in his full glory:

I sensed something vile...

That same power of death continues to torment me...

The Dark Knight appears:

You have no right to address me.

But Gallon is in his own (emo) world it seems:

Aah... Odette... How frightening... My heart is full of dread. Even her shadow scares me.

I cannot allow your corpse to fester in this world any longer.

Gallon objects:

'Tis the end... This is Hell's new home.

What!?

There is a royal secret...

Even if you are the shadow, a common warrior like you will never be able to kill me!

We will see about that...

Armageddon. Chapter 2, Act 2 - Gallon, King of the Netherworld

FOUR HP gauges this time?
This fight may look easy at first, but it actually isn't - this guy is the Undead King after all...
Oswald starts with his usual combo - Painkiller + Unlimited Power + Overload.

As always, I forgot about something... Oswald uses Flame Spirits and switches to his Shadow Form:

He pwns one of the heads but runs out of power eventually:

He continues with regular attacks:

But with one of his heads gone, Gallon switches to different attack - he submerges his remaining heads:

And uses them to surprise-buttsex you from below:

You can and should hit the heads:

But he will hide them fast. BTW, his snake-like neck will damage you:

He can also summon two Halja for a short period of time (they will hit you and disappear).
When he gets bored with playing an ostrich, he will go back to his regular form. Another of his attacks in the picture (homing tongue):

When you damage him enough:

He will go back to:

Still, most of his HP is gone, right? :D
Well, yes and no.
When you destroy all three heads:

His chest will open up:

The remaining HP belongs to the heart - you have to destroy it to kill him.
The problem is - the chest will close after a short period of time (keep pounding the heart when it's still open):

And don't forget to use the Unlimited Power before that:

Because when the chest closes up:

Yeah. All three heads will regenerate. So you have to repeat the process described above at least 2-3 times...



If you don't have enough potions (mainly Painkillers), you're toast - he will hit you enough times to kill you sooner or later:

Oswald destroys all three heads for the 2nd time:

Uses Unlimited Power and switches to the Shadow Form before the chest opens up:

And:

Almost there, people:

Oswald has to repeat the whole process for the 3rd time:

But this time:

He pierces Gallon's dark heart for good:

And this is the time when I realized I fought this entire fight with the Iceproof Charm equipped.



Armageddon. Chapter 2, Act 3 - The Ruins of Titania

Gallon lost his heads. Literally:

Why you... Only Titanian...

Who was your father...?

He recollects what the gay dragon told him once:

But a dragon once told me...

The name is familiar to the beast:

Edgar!

But he chose to defy me and married that woman... He left resenting me, and I knew one day he would try to take my life.

Explanation for slowpokes: King Gallon ordered to kill his own son, Edgar - Edmund's brother. Which means that Oswald is Corn's cousin.

'Twas inevitable, then... My killer would be of royal blood...

So I wasn't abducted... but was found, instead...?

He said I was just a tool, but when he first found me and raised me, there must have been something there...

Fortunately he doesn't have time for more of this emo-bullshit:

Titania is sinking...

Chapter Two ends!

What's next?

Finally, we have only ladies left:

So it's time for you to...

DISCUSS!!!

 

[Jaedar]

I think this is Gwen's fight but I'm not really sure.

 

[Pussycat669]

Now I'm torn. I'm pretty sure that Mercedes is the right choice but I think I'll go with Gwen instead for maximum emotional impact.

 

[hoverdog]

 

[lightbane]

Let the fairy loli fight.

 

[Erebus]

So... every single one of our heroes is of royal blood ? Is this game monarchist or what ?

I think this is Gwen's fight but I'm not really sure.

I had some slight doubts, but Griselda's ghost told Gwen to "knock down the crown". Obviously, our gliding valkyrie is meant to fight Leviathan.


Let's send our favorite blonde loli to kick the fire king's butt all over the place ! I'm curious to see how badly the name "Yggdrasil" has been butchered by the translations.

 

[Azira]

Since Mercedes' mothers name was stolen from Norse mythology, the smart money is that Mercedes' real name is Yggdrasil, and the right one to fight Onyx according to Krois' notes.

So another vote for Mercedes.

 

[Crooked Bee]

Yay for Mercy.

 

[Yeesh]

I continue to vote for the return of DAT ASS.

 

[Drakron]

Mercedes.

 

[Radisshu]

Mercedes.

 

[Ulminati]

What's the fun in seeing the "correct" ending?

A vote for

 

[Santander02]

A vote for Meche

 

[Erebus]

Wow, I just checked on Youtube what would have happened if Corn had fought his grandfather. Not pretty at all !

 

[ghostdog]

I continue to vote for the return of DAT ASS.

+1

 

[spekkio]

since everyone is voting for the 'correct' ending i fail to see the need for a poll.

And people hate current devs for ditching multiple choices - even the Hivemind preferes seeing 'something awesum' to experiencing an outcome of a 'bad' choice.



But some people are fighitng the good fight:

I think this is Gwen's fight but I'm not really sure.

I continue to vote for the return of DAT ASS.

The outcome of the poll:

• Mercedes: 8 votes,
• Gwendolyn: 2 votes
• Velvet: 3 votes.

So, in the upcoming fight...

Will fight:

 

[Azira]

Yeah, sorry for wanting to see the "proper" ending.. I just don't see me playing this game myself, that's why I'm voting for the right options.

I could just jewtube the outcomes, but I'm too lazy for that.

 

[spekkio]

YewTube?

English Amerikwan dubbing would give you AIDS anyway...

 

[spekkio]

It's time to kick some fiery asses!

Mos' def!

Armageddon. Chapter 3, Act 1 - Obliterated Ruins

We can see our loli Queen:

Doing her job:

It looks like the Fairy Kingdom isn't in best shape ATM:

Is someone...?

Suddenly she spots something:

Something unanimated:

She's devastated:

Ingway, is it you?

But not everybody in the area is sad (or dead):

Onyx...

If the world is ending as the prophecies say, then you will not survive it.

Prophecies?

(AFAIK this animation is used once in the entire game.)

It all follows the poems...

It does not exist...

'Tis the mutterings of senile, old mages. Their words are mistaken.

Onyx's reaction:

He decides to ditch the diplomatic route:

Bitches' reaction:

Onyx transforms:

It's raep time!

Armageddon. Chapter 3, Act 2 - Inferno King Onyx

Onyx can be described as a gigantic hairy p... Oh, wait - wrong boss...
He can be killed fast (no auto-regen or some shit), but he's p. fucking tough damage-wise. He was the first final boss who was able to kill my heroine:

It wasn't a problem, though, since I'm (over)using quicksaves like a dirty little whore...
Anyway... Meche starts the battle by equipping the Fireproof Charm and using Painkiller + Unlimited Power combo:

Damage is looking good:

Eventually, he will stop spitting a flaming mines and start hitting you (he can't set Meche on fire thanks to the Charm):

The main problem with Onyx is that he does not hit as often as other bosses, but when he does, he hits hard:

So, the key to winning this fight is keeping your HP high with Elixirs. You can also try trolling him with Spirits - they should last for a while:

He won't get frozen when he touches them, of course:

Except spitting lava mines and hitting you directly, he can also use his Hands of Doom:

And create an arch of lava, that will turn into a rock after a while (you have to destroy it to set yourself free):

BTW - his Rocket Hands are probably the most dangerous of his attacks damage-wise:

He can stun you as well (rare).
Meche goes after Onyx's manhood:

But runs OOA after that:

She applies proper potions again:

Gets hit:

Counterattacks:

Gets hit again:

Instead of healing her wounds, she continues shooting the bad guy. She is able to kill him just in time (he was readying to pwn her):

Armageddon. Chapter 3, Act 3 - Obliterated Ruins

Onyx looks... extinguished:

The Inferno King... Dead?

But Meche doesn't look good either:

Ahh...

Your kingdom... is ruined...

...

Please take me... This life will now return...

(Again, this animation is used once in the game...)

I am Mercedes... My true name...

That name... This cannot be...

'The fire is halted by the World Tree...' So, you were part of the prophecies, Mercedes...

In this barren land...

Spoiler

ORLY?

Chapter Three ends!

Next step:

So... Which sister should we use now - the flat-chested one or the non-flat-chested one?

DISCUSS!!!

Bonus image - Meche's current mood:

 

[ghostdog]

The non-flat-chested one

 

[Mrowak]

The cauldron should be obvious.

DAT ASS!!!

 

[lightbane]

The cauldron should be obvious.

DAT ASS!!!

Velvet for the win!!

 

[Damned Registrations]

Is everyone but me able to see the character portraits for dialogue? All I'm getting are froggy iceblocks.
