Interesting Rune info to debate..

[gm2987]

*sigh* this is why I try to avoid fights on this forum, people seem to like me here I don't need to come off as an ass on here XD<p>But more to the point, Its good to know I'm not screwing up my storyline by that conpendium thing.

Benoit.. Apparently you can't read, but I continued to debate with Peaguy.<p>I did not alter PSP's words like he did mine.<p>You obviously can't read subsequescent posts to see that most of the statements I made were already argued.<p>Slowly downhill Benoit, slowly downhill. <p>And since when do you defend PSP? I never forced my beliefs on you, like you tried on me 4 times already Benoit.<p>Very downhill.<p>*Edited to be nicer*<p>[size=small][Edit by Lord Khyron on [TIME]1109477197[/TIME]][/size]

I've missed a lot. And you know how I love a good arguement.<br><blockquote>Oh come on, get off your Compendium chair. </blockquote> <br>Benoit, this is perhaps your most obscenely hypocritical post ever. You, who have never ventured your own theories beyond the reach of what the Compendium tells you. You're far worse then Khyron for sticking to what the Compendium directly tells you. You have no right.

[Gipper]

This is why I never read the Compendium...it has too much that contradicts the games themselves...both the English and Japanese versions. The person who wrote it should be shot repeatedly. What is given in the game itself always overrules what someone else writes about it.

[Lord Khyron]

Considering it was written by the developmental staff of the games, Including the writers of the Settai..<p>Even has interviews with the ps creators.<p>It even tells the original PS 2 story planned, the canned one for the one we know with Rolf.<p>You'd shoot the PS creators?

I was showing my take on previous posts. I can't be here all night, can I?<br> <blockquote>And since when do you defend PSP?</blockquote><br>I may dislike him, but that doesn't make his statements automatically false. I'm not letting myself overrule by passion, as the Wizard's Rules tell. PSP is right in this thread.<br> <blockquote>I never forced my beliefs on you, like you tried on me 4 times already Benoit.</blockquote><br>Uh-huh, your posts don't force any beliefs?<br>In any case, we're debating, and I'm not going to stick "I think" before my phrases endlessly. Also, you refuse to take game evidence. This is not about beliefs at all.

[Gipper]

I'd certainly shoot the person that wrote stuff that didn't acually happen in the game. There's plenty of room to speculate, but if the game says it, then it is true, pure and simple. Anyone can make something up, but the game is ALWAYS correct, whatever complaints anyone may have over translation.

<blockquote>That's not true. As I said, the games have priority. </blockquote> <br>It's completely true. Whether you say the games have priority or not, that fact doesn't change that you've been one of the biggest Compendium thumpers on the board. <br>But that aside...<br>I'm going to have to agree with Benoit, PSP and PeaGuy. I don't believe it was immortaly imprisoned... there's too much evidence contrary to that. I think that the creators had the "end" of the Phantasy Star series (at least in Algol) in mind, and as such, wanted to make sure that the threat was layed to rest.<p>[size=small][Edit by LaconianShot on [TIME]1109520432[/TIME]][/size]

I agree.<p>The creators have worked to make it fairly apparent in context that the Profound Darkness is killed. That is to say that they did not expect we would be debating the definition of the word "destroyed". Any word can be stretched into a different meaning, but we have to follow the most apparent context. <p>And why can't a spiritual being killed? This is a fantasy game, and I'm sure the creators did not question if the physics of mortality and time apply to a spiritual being. There is no reason why it can't be killed, especially in a fantasy title. Again, we have to follow the most apparent context.

[Gipper]

I agree as well. The PD is gone. Whether all DF's are gone however is another matter...I believe one of them still sits hiding on the Alisa III as it flies with the Neo Palm in space.

[Benoit]

How am I one of the Compendium's biggest thumpers? o_O

[LaconianShot]

Simply put: you rarely venture your own conclusions and stick in the basic information given directly by the games or more often, the Compendium. <br>

Seriously, this is worse than watching a catholic bible bash with a protestant! No matter what happened in the end, it's finished. Finito. Fatto. However you want to say it, the PD is no more. That's why the Elsydeon was made and why Rune said this:<p> <blockquote>... it's probably the only weapon that has the power to destroy the Profound Darkness!</blockquote><p>Otherwise, there would have been no reason to have created the Elsydeon and keep it sealed up until that moment. Chaz could have used just another Nei Sword or something if the PD wasn't supposed to be finished off. The end HAD to come, and there HAD to be closure, not just to the game series, but also in the storyline.

[Benoit]

I see. I guess that's because I want to know what really happened, not what I think happened.

[Malakai]

I think people he's just encouraging you to use your imagination a little bit, Benoit. At least where there's room.
