Thoughts on Ultra Despair Girls?

Overhated, but I had to watch a play through instead of playing it myself since the gameplay caused me to get nauseous.

It really isn't that much worse than the rest of the series, they just turn a blind eye to similar content in the other games.

Made the Toko stans retroactively forget what a bitch (affectionate) she was in THH, which caused them to get about 300% more annoying.

Don't worry, I'm cooking something

[ali-croft7]

Coming slowly back from a long long hiatus. Finally I finished a comic I really thought it would be something simple, easy... I went nuts

Anyway I hope you like it!

I've got people to protect, witches on my command ✨️

[ali-croft7]

I'm still amazed after the amount of love you guys gave to my last post. It's INSANE/pos

I have been writing. I have few sketch ideas here and there. I want to make some food for you

Meanwhile, have a little witchy WIP

HI HI HI I hope you're alright and safe. I see your COTL AU Coven AU, and am VERY interested! Are some of the elements of the og premise still there, like your Lamb mc being the last lamb, except this time they have to build a coven instead, with witches as the setting? Please tell us more about it your art of it looks exciting and I love the title card so cool. Would you tell us the hypothetical gameplay and village sim style?

Have a gentle week come to you, drink water and eat vegetables regularly!

Hi!! Thank you for your kind words and your interest my AU <3 Your question makes me wanna draw a bunch of things but, for now, I'm gonna answer like this:

Is the Lamb mc the last one of their kind?

No, but like the og Lamb, she died and met TWWO. There is also a prophecy (a little bit different), that tells about freeing a god that was betrayed and more~

What does the Witch have to do?

She has to recruit new witches, defeat her Patron's enemies and break the seals so He can come back to the mortal world (cause like the og Narinder, He is imprisoned in his own realm).

Are there any Bishops? Or is there something else?

Instead of Bishops, they are called Patrons. Their divine power is related to the forces of nature and they are considered personifications of certain things.

The enemies you might encounter would be from unpleasant creatures to enemy witches... and inquisitors.

How a gameplay would work?

I think it would be more interesting to answer this in a future post, but to resume in few words: not anyone can be a witch. The number would be smaller than your regular cult, but you have to build a bond with your witches. They are your support for the toughest battles. They're your equals, they made a pact with the same Patron. You will be their leader if they see you as one.

So yeah: help with their requests, throw a party or two, give them a chance to grow as witches, give them responsibilities when they look prepared... Unlike the original one, faith is not what will make you keep your coven: is trust. However, the reward would be still devotion like the game (like I said I might need a post to develop this fgghg).

More about the hypothetical gameplay:

- You don't actually wear the crown, yet.

- There might be other creatures who ask for your services. Y'know, regular mortals with their needs and desires.

- Rituals would have to be done at night mostly. These are performances of pure, ancient magic and requires some chanting and music~

- There are witches who wouldn't like to run a cult. They'd rather choose a priest or priestess to guide the new cultists. The Witch (or some of the coven's members) should check them from time to time and make sure the cult is contributing with the Patron's needs.

I have a question about your OC, Joan. Judging by how Ratau and Ratoo were part of her cult I assume she was the previous bearer of the Red Crown, with Ratau being the next vessel after her. So how did Joan’s reign end? What was her downfall seeing that she’s more of a villain?

There are two reasons.

One was her own ambition. Joan's goal was to eradicate the Old Faith's devotion from the lands, making the bishops vulnerable and easy to kill. In other words, a big crusade.

She created an army of crusaders to take over the Old Faith's temples. She did it with Leshy's, but she couldn't finish her quest. Shamura frustated all her plans by turning more than the half of her army against her... and killed in the process.

Although Joan came back to life and TOWW had commanded her to retire and protect his temple, she finally refused and pulled the Red Crown out of her head.

At that moment she realized why she wouldn't taste victory anyways, the second reason of her downfall: the prophecy. She always thought of it as a false hope, a tool from the bishops even. The only "truth" she believed was that she was chosen by a god and nothing could stop her.

She went alone to fight Shamura for revenge. She knew she wouldn't make it, but she would die the way she wanted to.
