Damn, I love this reply. Because this very thing is why I sometimes struggle with the choice of playing non-humans in other games. Or playing non-human factions for the longterm in an RTS game. I think the addition of Kerrigan to the Zerg cast back in the day, for instance, was a stroke of brilliance.

All that said, I could see a potential spinoff game where you play ADVENT, since they are both alien AND familiar. Maybe even a prequel that leads up to Pratal Mox's breaking off. Origin story for the Skirmishers. There's just so much possibilities. :)

What is your favorite part of writing Makai/Netherworlds as a setting? It must be interesting to work conflict into stories with characters who don't age or die the way we humans do. Thank you, I love Disgaea!

Oh! That's right. I'd love to know Betos better too because some of her dialogue suggests she has some very deep emotions about everything surrounding her creation.

Heck, get Telltale Games involved. They'd be perfect for this.

I'm curious about whether XCOM 2 is informed by any sentai or even anime influences. I've mentioned to people before that ADVENT officers/troops kind of resemble sentai-style mooks. But what grabbed my attention is how among the Chosen, the Hunter sometimes sits in a yanki zuwari-style squat and how "Shogun" is a Chosen ability that summons Stun Lancers. (whose batons, now that I think about it, almost resemble the Seven-Branched Sword)

Am I onto something or am I just wildly speculating? :D
