Well, I knew about the name changes in the localized version. There are many item descriptions and npc names which are different in the localized versions of From Software games, all the way up to Dark Souls, actually. Honestly, I was really hoping that nobody would bring it up, at least for awhile. Looks like I would have to do a translation of the Japanese games to get the real deal. For all I know, Necron in Shadow Tower is a completely different character with a different name in the Japanese version.
Oh joy.
Did Agetec really change the origin story of the SoM in KFII(us)? I would love to confirm this without translating the Japanese game.
Also, I really like your comparison between Seath and Guyra and Yin and Yang. I totally see it, and it fits thematically.
Yeah, each of them has their own "space dimension". I wasn't aware of them being confined to it, but it would make sense. Guyra was trying to resurrect himself....
I thought that the creatures produced during the war between Guyra and Seath were made to guard and battle for the gods. I am unaware of any unintentional byproducts but that doesn't mean I couldn't be wrong.
From Software's fantasy videogames have always been ambiguous and open to interpretation.
Which is exactly why I find the relationship between Seath and Guyra so fascinating...
King's Field 3 was the last time they actually explained everything!
Does Vallad even exist in the Japanese version? Hahaha
Checking around with the Mirror of Truth today to find mention of Vallad.
