Dreamfall chapters rebels1/26/2024 ![]() The story of Zoe Castillo’s new life in Propast following her year-long coma featured sharp writing and confounding moral dilemmas, but it didn’t seem to be going anywhere in a hurry. Sorry, long.Book 1 of Dreamfall Chapters wasn’t exactly a thrill ride. Just as Enu is the most delightful DF character yet, Vamon is the most despicable. One other thought: who betrayed the rebels? Was it Jakai (sp?), meaning Benrime Salmin's nephew? Does that part of the story play out differently if you have Zoe observe what he's doing and then converse with him differently? I just couldn't tell from the image of the guy Vamon pays off, the *really* pays off. But if you left him behind, I would recommend taking the chance with the autosaves (I really hate this system where if you want to save, the best you can do is roll back to the last autosave, although in 4, they come frequently and at intelligent places.) Besides the interaction you get on the ship, it makes your sneaking through the Ge'en tower a little more interesting, and there is a scene that will just crack you up when Likho appears to (sort of) save you from Kian's Crazy Fangirl. I can't believe it's possible to get Enu killed, she's just too adorable and sweet and fleshed out as a character! And I'm almost afraid to go back to try to leave Likho behind just to see how things play out because of the autosave system-that's the story I want to play forward from. I don't know what the norm is, but when I had Book 4 loaded, I got the chance to replay everything from the time the rebels brought Zoe in forward, so I could have changed my decision and left Likho on the quay. So (apologies if I phrase this wrong and offend anyone) I wondered with Likho and possibly Kian, it's more "bi-ness" than "gay-ness!" ![]() Which I guess includes being April's lover (I had forgotten this), although he says he loves/loved her. Unlike the Azadi, the Dolmari would severly ostracize a man who liked other men, so Likho has always had to hide who he is. ![]() (On the cloudship you can also trip a conversation-called an "intimate moment," I think-where the two of them talk about gay-ness. Shepherd and Bob are among the dead, but you can see Enu and Na'ane standing with the more anonymous rebels.Ģ) You help Likho onto the cloudship and get a very interesting response from Likho about how Kian keeps doing things that make Likho not hate him, as he very much wants to. After the slaughter, you see a group of surviving rebels, so they don't get everyone. So for this set of optionsġ) Na'ane lives and is not confined to cell=Enu lives. I took that to mean he got onto the cloudship no matter what you did. SPOILERS FOLLOWĪnyway, I had read a walkthrough that said at the end of 3 where you make the choice to take Likho or not, and it said "damned if you do, damned if you don't). There certainly are soldiers like that (including the last King of Gondor, Earnur, if you're into LOTR). Have to admit, I initially took that as his just being so wrapped up in being a soldier and the Apostle and all, he wasn't interested in romance. I let the soldier live, so Likho hates me more and Kian goes on missions almost exclusively with Enu (and you don't get the extended discussion about "men lying with men" with her, as she gets girlishly flustered when he says "I'm not interested in women"). I let Na'ane live (probably playing more myself than Kian's character, as he's becoming dark and strange to the point of going off the rails at times, eg, in the pub in book 3 if you click on the peasants drinking and esp if you click on the owl statue).
