I’m gonna be thinking about Tomodachi Life 2 and Failtopia Season 3 for like months.. I’m so cooked broooooo (and also like. SO. SOOO EXCITED!!!)
So let’s talk about Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream! More specifically, how it can tie into the Failboat Lore!
if you couldn’t tell from everyone’s last dozen posts on Failtopia (and Failboat in general), it’s clear that the new Tomodachi Life game also somewhat confirmed the possibility of another installment in the Failboat Cinematic Multiverse! I say somewhat since we don’t truly know Daniel’s real plans with his Mii characters and probably won’t for a while, we all know his inconsistent he is with ideas. The game itself is set to release sometime in 2026 and Daniel has a lot of time to figure things out! With all the initial hype a little more out of the way, I think Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream doesn’t automatically mean Failtopia Season 3. Don’t get me wrong, it will 100% lead to something huge in the Failboat Lore, that’s for certain. When Daniel first saw the trailer, and even before that, he’s mentioned wanting the next Mii game to show off “where the characters have been” and have all the the custom cutscenes and lore he usually does!
The problem is though… part of me feels like Tomodachi Life isn’t really the right vibe for another part of Failtopia’s story. Another thing I’m really worried about is the Romance mechanic if it makes a return due to how much it relies on RNG. The game won’t know the previous relationships or the history of these characters, and while an EriBo wedding would be cool, the chances feel more likely that it wouldn’t happen without a lot of interference and unnecessary and somewhat awkward crushes and rejections… but Dan can also say “that never happened” and everyone would agree it didn’t cuz it’s Dan’s story, so maybe that won’t be too much of an issue. I’m also somewhat afraid that he’ll get bored of Tomodachi like he did with ACNH though and that as someone who’s played the game’s predecessor, he’s hyping himself up too much for something that doesn’t really have a story in-universe at all/matches up with everything else. Although, if ACNH could manage to have lore, I’m sure he can figure out something for this too!! Especially since he has expressed the want to add his own cutscenes and story already.
All that’s to say: everything about Tomodachi’s inclusion in the Failboat Lore really depends on how Dan plays things out here. He has around a year to prepare and figure out the ways to make it make sense. In the first hour of this trailer being out there, I thought of a way for Tomodachi to be implemented into the Miitopia world and universe, and a bit of a story to tie everything together! Even if this is way off the mark for what actually happens, just. just hear me out….
THE IDEA IS SIMPLE: After Miitopia’s second massive face-stealing problem, two new areas near the main land are discovered: New Lumos, a neon city strangely unaffected by the disappearance of monsters, and Galados Isle, a smaller and barely habited island, and the place this story will mainly focus on! Once Galados was discovered, a man who mysteriously looked like our C!Failboat went to work, urbanizing the island with some bots into the city we see in Living the Dream’s teaser! He promotes this project to the population of Miitopia, but is mainly trying to get the attention of the best and well known travelers/celebrities in hopes of getting them to stay at his Perfect Paradise! More specifically, he has his eyes set on former members of The FailFleet Miis there, along with The Incident!
By the time this project of his was ready enough to be shown off to the public, The Incident had been traveling within the world of Miitopia (with C!Fail and Chat leaving a few times to do stuff in other parts of the multiverse) for the past 5 years, so when they get an invitation saying “want to take a break from traveling for a while? come stay on the Isle!”, they all decide to give it a shot! Besides, if things go wrong like the last time C!Fail was on an island vacation, they all know how to defend themselves. Not too long before this descision, the group came to the conclusion that the Mystery Curse, the Dark Curse who threatened Miitopia before Darker Lord Lee, was most likely killed for good when Lee double crossed them, and probably wouldn’t ever be able to come back. As far as they all know, Miitopia was at completely at peace!
When they all get to the new island the C!Fail Lookalike introduces himself, and while the group are a little suspicious, Lookalike manages to warm up to them relatively quickly! He’s even nice enough to give Mar and C!Fail the opportunity to rename the island as a sign of friendship and respect… how sweet! As more people join the island, friendships are restored, relationships blossom, and everyone feels perfect there! Almost… too perfect. Everyone’s kinda put into some sorta trance, feeling feelings they usually wouldn’t, and making decisions that they usually wouldn’t make. It’s almost like Lookalike’s running the show, putting the most competent Miitopians in a position for them to be unable to do anything if… yknow… something bad were to happen to their world..
Somehow, C!Fail and Mar eventually break out of this cycle cuz of Kronkui, and they uhhh.. help the others break free and confront Lookalike and something idk I’ll think of a better way to end this off lmaoo, basically what if C!Fail’s LookAlike is working with/is the Mystery Curse? :3
oh yeah and if Failtopia: Living the Dream is just turned into an AU of Failtopia or a non-canon timeskip lore test thing like Post Game is then that would make things a lot easier on me buuut whatever lol :P
