Anyone here think both Crosscode and Alabaster Dawn might have some weird shared universe shenanigans

This conversation has probably been done already and could be wrong but this was just a weird thought, so I had decided it wouldn't to add another perspective to the bunch.

I was reading the greatest Estate Developer (good webtoon series by the way highly recommend it) and read how that whole isekai system works, where the universe has always exist, it's just that how the real world views it is from whatever "authors"/"creators" show it to the world. So this theory came up was that the world of Crossworld was always a thing it's just that the real world only views it through the game Instatainment has created.

So the world of Alabaster Dawn and Crossworlds may be part of the same universe, just in a weird twisted way, like Alabaster Dawn seems more like it takes place in a different time period (most likely a prequel) and whatever world-ending threat is what kick-starts the advanced technology we see in Crossworld.

This could be a good way to implement the lore of Crossworlds, because there were some interesting stuff in there but let's face it most of us who play this game are more invested in Lea's story rather than the story and lore of the game we are playing, so this would be a good opportunity to expand that lore in some interesting way while also being it's own thing since it's just using the ideas and story beats and doesn't need to really follow them, so the writing still has enough flexiblity to be as creative as it could be.

This could all be wrong in a later update of Alabaster Dawn but I just want to just get what I was thinking out, but what do you guys think?

Would be cool if James did a Shu Takumi (creator of Ace Attorney) director/planner game ranking as a mini follow up to talk about more Ace Attorney

I was thinking of what game ranking ideas James could do, and after thinking of his film director rankings and with the Ace Attorney case ranking finally done, I thought that as a nice runner-up or follow-up to a video like that would be talking about the creator who brought the franchise to life in the first place.

And looking at his wikipedia, he has been confirm to be a director/planner for 13 games, (14 if you count him being a writer of his confirm game he has involvement with) with half of them being Ace Attorney games, so this could be a mix between new and old stuff for James to play, still being small enough that it will be managable for him to do, and it would be interesting where they would all rank, especially since I am curious at what James think of each Ace Attorney game seperate with their case package as a whole.

Has anyone here beat a run without using any sun powers (aside from the peasant for obvious reasons) and if yes is there any alternative ending from beating a run without any using any sun powers

Considering the fact that the peasant is the only character in the game that shows a good ending, I was curious if any of the other characters might have an alternative good ending if you choose not to use any sun abilities during the run since from the little lore we know about this game, most of the characters we play aren't really good people, even the ones with somewhat noble intentions were corrupted by the power of the sun (which makes it all the more poetic that the only character in the game that has a good ending doesn't have a sun abilty). So it would be interesting if they choose not to use their sun powers and thus resist the corrupt, and maybe could cause them to have a change of heart and return the sun to the sky and their endings show their change of heart. (Examples such as the knight fully committing to his second thoughts, or the mage refuses to test is mental capabilities with the corruption, and immediately returns the sun to the sky before it corrupts him even further.

And even if an alternate ending for each character doesn't exist in this game, I do hope the devs add something like that to add a bit more replayability into the game

A while back, I saw a bunch of videos and new articles talking about Ryan Reynolds and the comments tend to talk about his inability to act, only for others to debunk that claim with several examples showing his range as an actor (Buried, The Amityville Horror, The Nines, etc) though most of those films don't make him that much money or are that popular which is why he does the typecast roles in films people mostly know him for. (honestly do hope part of him will do a film to show off his range more) He's basically kind of like Adam Sandler when it comes to his filmography, so it could be an interesting thing to talk about.

Looking at this post the Devs posted over a year ago, they mention that they are aiming to have 10 characters in the game, but as of now, the full version only has 7 playable characters for version 1.0, still a good amount, but I'm still curious if that original goal will still be done in the future.

But what do you guys think?
