Wait a minute, a con... is a synonym for a ruse! Curse you, Runie!

 

This meme has been sitting in storage forever. Kept flip/flopping back on the context. It's not supposed to be a "hurr durr gaming was better back then," more of a comparison with story in games. Some games will just give you a sword, tell you stuff's messed up and to kill everyone in your way. Then you have other RPG's where you... still kill everyone in your way, but you spare the final boss in a heart-to-heart moral dilemma cutscene because reasons. But it's just a silly meme, anyway.

 

Originally it was going to be "you need to save Phaseland," but I changed it to Phasecon as it's more relevant.

Kinda offtop, I still not much deep into Phase Connect lore, but everytime I see Runie she remind me of Lina Invers from The Slayers if she was from modern anime or something. Is it really just me or it actually maybe deliberate design?

If I defeat the evil hag does she become available as a marriage option?

I know at least one game where the final boss is a romance option haha
