I wanna know more about everyone in the Black Parade AU! And more about the premise of the AU itself! What can you tell us about all of it?
Let's see if I can write a few lil facts down!
Currently, its still got the old video game feel, but set more to an old playstation resolution if we talk about its real 'outside looks'!
The game is set to be a combination of many music type games, like Guitar hero, hi-fi open worlds and maybe even some newer formats like beat saber!
Caine is still experimental with the format of these adventures, so the whole world is basically like one of those Sonic Deluxe Games where it has SOOOO MANY GAMESS and comics attached! He does occasionally delve into the darker more violent themes but still finds himself restraining to a certain amount to keep viewers entertained with the game and popular. (He's busier because of this)
I have entertained the idea of 'the game' being visible to viewers, like wreck-it-ralph!
Everyone is still unhappy being stuck, but its a bit more manageable
The humans can still abstract and have!
Kaufmo and Jax were a lot closer, its a shame what happened to them...
Ragotha is much more laid back in demeanor, still checking in on everyone but to a more chill extent!
Zooble and Gangle hang out a lot! They tend to go through the levels of the game again to enjoy more of the worlds features and give Caine constructive criticism. Pomni sometimes tags along to hangout and bug test! (This led to a LOT of NPC's being added to feel more natural and blended, and if we add the multiplayer feature, the players sometimes have fun seeing their model around like the mii verse)
They have games within the game, like just slice of life dance dance revolution, choreography and general activities between adventures to do whatever they wanted :]
CUSTOMIZED LOOKS- To an extent. They are still stuck in their bodies, but they get more clothing customization! (Gangle has a LOT of corpse paint masks, Ragotha tends to stick to the same clothes but she also likes long flowey types of dresses, real goth queen, and pomni changes almost as much as zooble does)
Caine sometimes drops a BIG storyline that is a continued adventure, which can sometimes keep the players invested and lets them sleep in the other realm from checkpoint to checkpoint. Those are the more open world adventures- but since they can get so large, they can take months before coming out!
As for the storyline itself, Caine isn't exactly sure on how to free everyone from the simulation, but with the multiplayer addition, he believes it might be the key to their way out! (But he doesn't want to let them go just yet, that would be lonely. The others don't need to know of this, but Jax and Pomni suspects it even if he deflects it) He keeps pretty hush hush about the exit, not wanting anyone else to abstract on TRYING to get out, or else it'll change his mission to reverse the abstractions! And that, is a distraction :]
