Favorite Moments so far?

#1 by Muse - Apr 22 2011

I finally got a chance to play this again (darn you school!), and I thought it would be fun to share our favorite moments so far in the game!

I just adore the Christmas spell. I went though and tried all of the options. They are just so heartwarming!

So, obviously this is rather spoilerish, but what is/are your favorite parts?

My personal favorite scene is the pancake dinner where I had to stay in the libary and I got to talk to Proffesor Grabiner. I finally feel we're getting somewhere and he was starting to get a little soft.

But that can be tied with the hidden Damion image. Very Happy That was just AWESOME.

I love the scene with Donald in detention when Grabiner casts the silence spell. It's just such a sweet interaction between Donald and Mary Sue.

How did you get detention again? I have never seen that scene.

Is that the one where you start playing with the rubber bands and stuff?

I believe it's the detention if you fail against the Hodag in dungeon four?

I'm guessing it's the January 11th detention after the Hodag exam, which has a Donald-path specific scene in it.

EDIT: Oops, posted slightly too late! Smile

#10 by junsei7 - May 1 2011

Yes, that's the one I meant - the Hodag fail scene. Sorry, I should have been more specific! Smile

I just like Damien in general. He is my favorite character! I'm sad I can't continue after march 12th atm. I really want to see an ending with Damien Smile

In the latest update (alpha) - I'm loving the Doctor Who shout out! Smile As if I didn't love Donald enough already...

Bright day
I liked what happens when you fail to study after so much time at school. II failed a study in room in March and my char got a multi/choice event - I went looking for hugs and got stress relief and cuteness.

But I really loved when Ellen talks about science. Thank lord, finally a "magic" setting that does not try to pretend that science is some sort of ritual behaviour done with rulers and beakers while wearing lab coats. SCIENTIA is knowledge and nothing less, accept no substitutes.

Tell me about it! Though I suspect this could be Kyo's doing since the MC talked to him about forgetting Minnie and probably Grabiner confronted him or something.

I also noticed that if your MC sent a romantic valentine to Pastel and kisses her, you'll totally get the cold shoulder from Grabiner. I haven't tried the option if you sent her a friendly/funny valentine ^^" Shocked

I have a save where the PC sent a romantic valentine to Pastel and kissed her, but Grabiner seemed to act like he always does (this is on Grabiner's path btw).

Really? So she doesn't mentioned how she hasn't gotten her first kiss and that she expected her husband to at least liked her? Hm, I think I'll have to try that again.

If you choose to kiss Pastel, he won't even open up the door for you. xD So cold.

I know! I kinda hoped he wouldn't know about that ><. But I guess the marriage bond lets him know whether his wife is cheating on him or not.

Big Steve+rabbit plushie+cute/creepy conversations with said rabbit= me squeeing for about two minutes straight.

Also him gushing about Bounders.

Also him acting so shocked when you give him the bunny.

Also...


Dammit, I'm coming off as obsessed, aren't I?

The scene when the player becomes upset about everyone ignoring her and decides to talk to Grabiner about it. It's kind of a sweet scene. I think this is one of the scenes he actually tries to be nice. When he says *I don't dislike you* I just kinda melted. xD I pretty much like ALL of the scenes with him though. I guess I sound obsessed too.

When Damien grovels at my feet saying we belong together LMAO.
I've been here so long even Hanako is sick of me

My favorite Damien scene is cursing him to live forever and never know peace.

My favorite scene overall is panicking after giving Ellen the romantic valentine. I should replay Ellen's path, she is the best.

The pancake dinner where you're on Donald's path is adorable when you give him the pancake plate (you have to be treasurer).

My favorite moments are:
First,is when Mary suddenly have to marry her own professor because of that gennie(The most shocking moment ever)
Second,is when Grabiner said,"I don't dislike you." XD

I love so much of this game, but my favorite things was probably when I picked Donald for the Christmas spell.
"Hi..." It's so simple and sweet. It shouldn't have made my heart skip, but it did. I ended up squeeing and giggling from that...
I also really liked:
Ellen Path: The Conspiracy, and freaking out about the romanctic valintine
All of Virginia's path
That one scene with Pastel
The cookie after the first exam
Detention after the monster exam (Suki Power!)
Failing studying late in the game (Seek Hugs; Hug Isobel or Blow Off Steam; Scream Wildly in the main courtyard)
Any romantic scene with Grabiner (I also kind of liked the scene when he got really pissed off at us for "telling everyone")
Donald Path: When he pranks you in the dungeons
Giving Steve Mr. Hoppity (and getting Mr. Hoppity back if you dance with Steve at the ball)
The valentine from Mr. Hoppity
Potsdam... all of Potsdam

Is "the entire game was my favorite moment" an acceptable answer? Laughing

The Grabiner string had the most character development and plot. I'd follow it through another year until the divorce and after. It is marvelous.

Other wise, kissing Virginia.We do make a pair!

The most emotional moment on the Damien path was Ellen's ultimatum in the final exam. The desperation of the characters involved, the fact that they're willing to go that far, to plead and threaten and finally attempt to twist your arm... all in a last ditch attempt to protect you... that resounded far more deeply with me than the actual endings.

Ellen dragged the promise out of me and my canonical ending (the first one I ever got) was Mary finally coming to her senses and running away. Just because of my promise to Ellen. I sort of wish that Damien was irredeemably evil and being foolish enough to get dragged in a second time ends badly for Mary. To me that ending, where your friends save you at the last second, is the most touching and fulfilling ending imaginable. The love of your friends saves you from a monster's charm.

Also getting "Most likely to handle hot food without gloves", presumably in response to my reckless behaviour throughout the year, was pretty funny.

The Grabiner story as a whole is irresistible to me, even though I feel like I should be... better than that? Like, I'm such a sucker for those brief moments when he shows you affection, and I'm only drawn further in by each snub. My favorite scene is the Grabiner kiss - I think it's well done, in-character, and satisfies a visual novel player's need to kiss every husbando/waifu.

My favorite moment was when it was warm enough to have an outdoor picnic in March.
If only the weather was that nice in the IRL Green Mountains.
