Part 32: NG+ Update 04: Broken Wings

NG+ Update 04: Broken Wings







Ryu awakens at the bottom of the ravine.



Music: Formidable Foe







He encounters the Cyclops and engages it in combat.





The Dragon Blade’s immense power makes short work of it.

Music: A Small Journey









Nina joins the party, but not before another SOL Scene plays.

Music: Trinity Pit

















: What is it?



: Most likely…a child.







Most SOL Scenes sync up with where we are in the game itself. This one evidently does not, clearly taking place right after Mebeth’s meeting with Cupid while in the game’s timeline Lin is in the middle of carrying out her mission.

Also, Lin’s use of a rocket launcher now seems highly irresponsible given she knew there was a child on board the train.

Music: Waste Shaft





Like Ryu, Nina comes with all her skills and equipment from the previous playthrough.



I boost her up to parity with Ryu to make the next segment easier.









After a few minutes we reach the point where Lin ambushes the party.





She joins us, adding a much-needed third page to our inventory.





Zeno chews Bosch out about not securing the cargo and tells him to eliminate Nina.





Music: Imminent Crisis



The next SOL Scene triggers once we’ve fought our way through the Danger Room with all the Bind Spiders on the fourth floor of the Old Waste Shaft.









: Don’t you want to know what she is?



:…if I asked, Criminal?









: Ranger…
