Reo!

GOD I wish I'd logged more threads of these two old jerks reminiscing.

Oh well...

BEWARE THE DREADED FORM QUESTIONS!

1. Biggest curveball Reo threw you?
2. Biggest curveball the game threw you?- Probably the leg getting fixed, let's be honest.
3. Favorite moment?
4. Biggest missed opportunity?
5. Any secrets Reo has that never came up?

Less-formy-

Ready to be entrusted with a copy of Chouri's full account PLUS Enrou's notes? :lol:

To answer the last first: OH HELL YES

I will combine 1 and 2: I envisioned this game as Reo's last adventure, that he would run out and die horribly or get corrupted. So I would say that biggest curveball was that Reo kept passing to avoid corruption when it counted and kept being around people making better life choices. So when he was given the chance to heal a literal childhood trauma, and it came without strings it gave him a new lease on life to the point that he was easily able to resist the Harbinger temptations

3) I loved the chats with Yukara, Naraku and Enrou

4) Reo was trying to mess with Dreamstone to weaponize it but it never really happened

No secrets really.

Not really a question, but I enjoyed our scene together and wish we could have had another one or two. But that's how these games always end. Wishing you could have posted more.

I assure you, Ninube will be very happy to Reo come back alive and healthy.

lol, I've started to realize that sometimes the ones we expect to die end up surviving until the very bitter end. Sakkaku and the game are so unpredictable.

What would you say is the one thing above all that surprised you about Reo's story most?

Reo fully believed what he said to Yukara when she lost her arm: that her mind and soul were as valuable to the clan as her body. So being offered the chance to heal his leg short circuied him.
