TurtleKitty Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I'm hoping there's also more full name reveals. Webber's human name, Wes' last name, Wickerbottom's first name {I headcanon "Morgana"}, Willow's last name, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModsterMash Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I'm still processing that they are actually finally going through with backstories. Like, individual character backstory treatment! Wow! I've only started playing last year and can only imagine how long some people have waited for this to happen. I'm interested in seeing the method Klei will use to show us these backstories. Like, are we talking some paragraphs and related images? Or will they go all out with a comic or even an animation? Can't wait to find out!

I automatically presumed an event and redone quotes but comics or animations would be unbelievably spectacular. My eyes are shoujo sparkling now.

RogueGamer12 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I'm going to assume their backstories will be shown with short comics. Kinda like how in Darkest Dungeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's several parts of dialogue where he calls his mother "mum". Quote Sewing Kit- "Mum used to handle all of our sewing." Egg (cooked)- "Fried just like mum did." Braised Eggplant- "Mum knew I liked it braised." Powdercake- "Mum never let me have these." Blueprint- "'Follow the instructions', mum always said." Quote Tam o' Shanter- "Reminds me of grandpa." Er... Lot of things remind him of Grandpa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueGamer12 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I'm quite hoping to know what's going on between Woodie and Lucy. Along side his curse. Or how Willow likes burning things and someone not taking much damage from them. (No damage from them at all in DS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanAzej Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Well, considering that about half of the cast doesn't have a backstory at all, I'd expect something. For the rest, about whose backstory we know (Wilson, Maxwell) I expect it to just tell us stuff we already know. (inb4 DS goes Overwatch route and now everyone and their pet dog is homosexual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axelocke Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I wanna know when Wendy started being haunted by Abigail, did she just immediately appear as a ghost after death, or is there more to it? (I'm also really keen on learning more about Wagstaff! Winona's old quotes mentioned her boss disappearing... I want to know more! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maradyne Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I'm imagining something along the lines of going through how Winona got here, then she meets and gets to know the survivors and their backstories. Maybe a comic, maybe an animation, who knows. Something semi-contiguous but multi-part. The way Winona's presented through quotes and stuff, I feel like they're trying to make her the character that pulls the survivors together and off of one-anothers' throats.

Nice theory but I'm afraid they simply put her in every drawing cuz: a) She has a bad reputation b) She needs to catch up with other survivors when it comes to art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It aired in Europe but I dunno if is was airung in Canada. OMG is that the one where the character ran a substitution agency and substituted the role of an important person (James Bond, Power Rangers, Wizard of Oz, Indiana Jones, Alice in Wonderland, Frankenstain's Monster...) when they couldn't go to work to cover for them??! So much nostalgia, I'm enlightened <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaloFTheSun1 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I think most of the characters are based on Canadian immigration history, that most are either British, French and maybe American backgrounds. Klei is a Canadian company and the time frame the game is based in, kind matches up. I mean the British (European I actually think) could move to American and Canada with no problems. Just putting that out there . Also max story started in Britain and moved to American and Wolfgang has a broken accent and Wes is a mime which is a French thing. Who I think is American is willow, Charlie and Winona . Probably others but they three stands out the most for American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaloFTheSun1 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Forgot woodie is obviously Canadian and Webber not only British but Scottish (quotes saying how the tam reminded him of his grandfather). I looked up where in Scotland and there is a small island that has goats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
