Characters, Plot, and Themes / Re: Explain Serge's Silence.
« on: January 04, 2010, 11:31:23 pm »
I definitely saw the pattern, there. With the whole silent protagonist thing. I never once questioned why Crono did not speak, save for when you made a choice or when he gestured, and introduced himself. But in my opinion, there's no reason for Serge NOT to speak. As far as I can tell, he can hear, and can speak, as Serge/Lynx had clearly demonstrated by using his voice-"Box". ( 
) So, to me, in certain areas of the game, it does take away from the overall feeling. What's the point of having dialogue YOU need to react to if the main character himself shows no real expression towards what just occurred?
That said, he definitely COULD speak if he wanted to. . .But I think the purpose of his silence is simply because Crono did it first. ;]
That, or...Maybe all heroes of time/space are required to take an oath of silence 99% of the time.

Lavos, the Planet, and other Entities / Re: A Possiblity of Misunderstanding?
« on: September 20, 2008, 06:57:15 pm »
Is it just me, or does it just seem like Lavos....Didn't intentionally end up on earth? Seriously, how much control would one have flying through space without the use of a rocket or something? My best guess is that the planet that it was previously on blew up, and it was on a random collision course with earth. So it's not like it intentionally CHOSE earth as a new place to rest and respawn. It just latched on and started doing what overgrown... parasites do. 
But the real credable reason that Lavos had to be stopped was because, well, humans fight to survive too. So both creatures really aren't all that different.
I mean, who's to say that humans didn't fall from space from a rock and just developed overtime either? for all we know, humans and lavos could be the same type of beings; parasites.
Just a thought.

Lavos, the Planet, and other Entities / Re: So, What is the Entity in CT?

I think if you throw FATE into the mix, then the Entity has less control over the events. Which is why you had to fight FATE in CC in the first place, if I'm not mistaken.
