I played back when the Nulgath vs. Dage events were happening, and to say the community was split on the decision would be an understatement - players so were disappointed, and rightfully so as AE basically ruined the event finale. To this day I believe Nulgath should have stayed as the main big bad of the Underworld, and Dage could have had a different outcome. I remember taking at least a year break after that, as many of my other buddies on AQW decided to step away from the game for a good while. I eventually came back around a year or two later, but by that time I only have maybe 1-2 friends who were still active.

It's funny that were both Chaos Lord and Chaos Beas; the Chaos Usurper, Slayer and Avenger...Eternally Chaorrupted as Time distorts Chaos and Chaos distorts Time I have always thought that we might be related to Drakath because we were able to use chaos items from the very start without being chaorrupted, I understood when they released this finale that we were always already corrupted through retroactivity, the only surviving Chaos Lord, both the first and the last. It was fun to vent some of my frustration of being a hero out at lore... And now we are so many things its weird to think back... We're irrecoverably eternally chaorrupted, have Kathool the Chaos Beast Primordial God of the Deep in our head AND now the Arcana being hosted in our flesh through symbiosis. Oh and Doom...since VDK is a canon class...we also have lots pf doom in there...I wonder how many migraine potions our hero uses. When I asked Cylisse if this state of us had consequences for anything trying to interact with our mind Cylisse said that she couldn't talk about that on twitter.
@varnyggdrasil3084Ай бұрын
Also as a Hero who fought to end the world let me just mention that it took cheats to prevent us from getting the Lair...which is why it was counted as a tie officially...which pretty much meant that chaos had won...again xD Man I hope we can be the villain again in the future Man it felt good to know that we are the best chaos lord, it was fun to be evil

And now...SMH BRING THE ARCANA INVOKER LORE INTO THIS. Arcana Invoker changed the whole story's eldritch horror to a cosmic tragedy of many sides for me: Darkon & Fa who lost their lover Suki who lost everything including herself for love Ti, Re and La who were divided between those they loved (Darkon, The Scale, and Us) Song, Mi and Fa who lost their loved ones, their family, and are now both wounded and cherished by the Dragon & Arcana who caused it. Drago who cant feel love for anything but himself The Dragon who's too late to find and safe love. Now not the hero, not the man, but always only called "they" unable to escape their divine duty, which puts them at odds with those they love. The Star who's alien to love and being loved, who's fondness is mutating but genuine. Now drowning in loss a primordial can feel, abandoning any future connection it may gain with mortals to ensure this newer happens again, in memory of their dear one. Only to end their desolation through bonding with that which shattered them to begin with. Two true outsiders ensuring that neither Dragon nor Star are ever truly alone.
