it's mind control isn't it

it's gonna be mind control

[sageoftruth]

I'm curious to find out why the crystals sent everyone to stop the cola production in the first place. Perhaps the crystal Erin met was an outlier who disagreed with the plan?

 

[RJ 17]

Could someone give Althea a hand? It looks like she has some Tic-Tacs stuck in the corner of her eyes. :3

No, that would be too straightforward for a JRPG plot.

Emotions control on the other hand...

My guess is zombies. Zombies ala (fuc)Konamis Metal Gear.They want to be inside you.

That is pretty close to FF13: fulfill your mission, or become a mindless monster for the rest of your life.

So the motive is .. They can emit bright light?? Holy Moly!




Wait

 

[Jeivar]

Okay, here's my personal theory: The crystal wanted avalanche to fail, and so deliberately sent them people it considered incompetent. Like, say, a healer who isn't actually a healer.

 

[youngstormlord]

My theory: The crystals need humans to ingest them so they can breed. They are indeed crystals of light with plenty of magical powers... but they feed on life force and are really not needed for the world to live. They are more like parasites, actually.

Why would crystal send someone to prevent the plot? It didn't. They sent special people to be captured and turned, forcefully fed crystals. The most powerful mages and the strongest people crystals could find... so they would make fertile grounds for crystals to breed and control and... you guessed it, take over the world (again).

 

[Quellist]

Now we're getting somewhere!

 

[Lagslayer]

Wait a sec... SHARD COLA IS MADE OF PEOPLE!!!

1. Ingest shards
2. Shards consume your body and grow
3. Harvest
4. PROFIT!!!

Just look at gunny!


So, uh... basically what youngstormlord said.

Emotions control on the other hand...

The crystals are sacrificing pieces of themselves to be consumed by the people as a way to pacify god so the soulstream is maintained?

 

[Kajin]

The crystal made Fluttershy cry. The crystal must die.

More likely to breed and take over the world by taking over the people, literally.
It's either that simple or a plan so full of plotholes it doesn't make sense even if you don't think about it.

 

[Jacked Assassin]

If Miss Lightish Red were Witch Hunter Robin or Katia Managan I'd expect the fires to continue any moment.
....
But now I want to make false predictions that would turn this whole thing into RvB.

As CaitSeith said, it's a JRPG like game so, (In Liam Neeson's voice) RELEASE THE PLOTHOLES! (c'mon Grey, at least Terminator Genisys level of nonsense.. Erin can take it without entering coma..I hope)

OK, I'll bite, which game is that pile of random nonsense from?
