If Risa replaced MG Risa, I wonder who replaced Risa?

Will we find MG Risa being mesmerized by Jäger abs? Or someone else being subdued by Fuego's greatness and surrounded by a small army of flexing statues?

You know, I think I found a use for Chiaki's new accessory.
Terror missions.
A territory's government requests civilian repacification. Chiaki and a Callidus escort get dropped into an area of unrest where a major revolution is currently starting up. The Callidus squad do their magic to enlarge Chiaki's image. Chiaki spreads her wings and does what she always does to large crowds of unknowing citizens.
A few hundred million yen in the bank.

>>39153620
Wouldn't that just result in everyone killing her Officio and a lot of confused citizens? I'd guess that the avg civvie doesn't know the significance of Akemi Homura reborn.

>>39153667
That's what the Callidus squad is for. If there is any MG near, it'll be hard to tell how much of Chiaki's appearance is real and how much is fabricated. And even then, the average MG won't know the significance of Akemi Homura, either. An actual incubator would have to be present for her to be revealed. You can even have the Callidus completely change the wings.

>>39153620
Any other officio got wind of that the Ninth would be dead.

This is what it must feel like if God existed. All the power in the world, never/not able to use it.

Alright. That makes sense. Find the abs, find the ab limpet. Alright. Okay. Good plan.

And wonder of wonders, guess who I find in the kitchen cooking an early breakfast?

"Oh, good morning, Harriet!" Jager greets me cheerfuly, lightly-dressed in front of a sputtering pan. There's nothing good about this morning, but I return it anyway. "Sorry if I woke you, I just wanted fried eggs all of a sudden, hahaha." The ab monster pauses to flip one of the sunny-side up eggs she's frying with butter upside down. "I made enough for everyone, so you can have some if you like! Er..." She looks at me with worry. "...Why are you holding your back like that? Did you hurt yourself lifting again--"

No. No, I didn't.

Maybe.

Anyway, where's Risa? She's not in her room.

"Not in her room?" Jager echoes. "...That's strange, I swear I saw her in there on my way here." She shrugs, then. "Maybe she stepped out for a bit? It's not the first time she did. She'll probably back in a little while, no need to worry.

So, just a matter of curiosity: Is this some kind of 40k Magical Girl thing, or what?

Nope, Spin off from bleach that went weird and incorporated other mythologies.

>>39155544
You're thinking of Magical Girl Noir Quest. That's run by Deculture, not "AzureEarth"

>>39155579
Odd combo choices in both cases, but good to know. Thanks.

Further: If I were to start MGNQ, would your advice be "Don't" given length of backlog?

>>39155554
It's always the time.

>>39155617
no, the advice would be to make sure you have enough time to marathon the backlog

>>39155617
If you completely ignore the backlog and just start with the next thread, you'll still have read more of the quest than most of the anons that vote.

>>39155617
My advice would be to prepare some coffee, get comfy and hole up in your room for a day or two.

Let's go with my secret surveillance team instead. Hopefully I don't blow their cover by visiting them, as they're pretty much in the perfect hiding spot.

Go to magicalgirlnoir.com

It has Decu's posts only there, and is a much easier read than going through the archives. Just chip away at it and you can get through it without a lot of hassle.

>>39155617
If you have a lot of time on your hands, it's worth a read. I'd go for the e-book, though, and not bother with suptg, wading through anon's posts will take up oodles of time and MGNQ is already fucking massive on its own.

>>39155676
>I'd go for the e-book, though
I can see how one might want to skip waifu wars and squabbling, but does e-book have all the fanart or only the stuff Decu posts in updates?

Just...fuck it, I'll try whatever knock that comes to my head. Maybe one of them'll be right.

After ten minutes of rapping at the doors with my knuckles, the occupants inside finally throw the door open. Revealing their identities as my secret surveillance squad briefly to the world.

Pretty good team, this. Great in a fight, and surprisingly adept when it comes to technical stuff like this.

"Hey. You guys have any idea where the main objective is? She disappeared this morning."

The strange-looking occupants glance at each other, before they beckon me into the truck. I follow them in, and they gesture to one of the many monitors they have active. It's showing a picture of something small and stocky eating what looks like Taiyaki on top of a park bench somewhere.

Instead of interesting narrative development you choose the most boring option

So was AE's MGNQ thread last night indicative of how HQR usually is? I've tried reading it from the beginning a couple time but always got sidetracked and never got that far in.

>>39157861

>these megafaggots
Even when we go past the mundane and boring narrative, we're getting basically one eighth of what Deculture usually writes for the same amount of time between "updates", all for some quick, simple art.
This is just not fun.

>>39158114

There's also killing and eating enemies and stuff. But sometimes it gets a little dicey or some anons get frustrated, since some felt like it was a balancing act between social first-aid with comrades vs. staying powerful enough to be relevant. There's been some rough patches here and there with the quest.

>>39158114
Its really like when we're a the top. Him at the top of his game, and his players at the top of NOT being shits.

>>39158290
Fuck you

>>39158290
It feels like decu is posting a lot more often this time.

>>39158114
HQR is generally a bit more grounded than that and generally doesn't end with Risa killing her comrades out of paranoia. Otherwise, yet.

>>39158472
Well let's be honest with that. The Comrades we should have killed out of paranoia fucked us over. Hard.

>>39158466
He made 10 updates so far, including the OP, each of them with two or more unique images after about 7-8 hours, which is already longer than the usual, recent thread.
There is marginally less text per update, and there are more player decisions per time unit than usually.
At least we got none of the usual lewdposting.
I think I'll just go to sleep.

I have no idea what's going on in today's thread but I am liking it.

Okay I can't go to sleep without saying what bothered me.

"AE", I have to admit that this wasn't one of your top moments. I don't understand what you wanted us to do. Take for example the squat. We have trained long and hard and can squat 250 for reps. Feels like we could have gone that extra mile and nailed 300, but no, you slapped us down. It felt like a trap option, all I'm saying.

Feels like you want to keep Jager as the top lifter. Have you heard of player agency? I don't think that was handled very well in this thread.

Sometimes I just don't know what you expect from us.

I also feel like that this is player vs. QM rather than player vs. adventure. How were we supposed to know that we could've gotten a spotter when squatting? We didn't have any opportunity to eat any steel-cut oats either or any option to back out even when we were revealed to not have squatted in a while.

Sometimes I think that there's too many things to juggle at once and too many expectations for us to realistically fulfill.

>>39159286

Honestly, that was probably the best plan. Just that any faggot who says AE doesn't care about his quest should note that happened, and shut the fuck up.

But that's my opinion, and not the choice other anon's made, so it's cool bro. The quest doesn't exist for just me alone.

>>39161407
I would say that the ideally you should have at least one post every ten minutes or so. If you go half an hour of just a dead thread, then it really seems like people don't care.

>>39161474
He really fucked up AoPH.

>>39161442
Well for THAT, you need to look at page 731 where AE is saying he wants to wrap up the quest as soon as possible (within ten threads) and he said
>It is for the best I think. This thread sort of cemented that
So despite your thoughts that the quest has gotten better in the last thread, I'd say that indicates that AE had a considerably different interpretation, because I don't think he'd want to wrap stuff up because he was afraid he was having too much fun.

>>39161630
Quest fell apart with the whole kidnapping repeatedly/mind fucking the waifu.

AE killed his own quest. So yeah it'll be over soon. Participation is shot because anons got sick of that bullshit.

>>39161498
Are you honestly implying that only one person was mad at Dran?

Furthermore, are you implying that anyone was responsible for fucking up AoPH harder than Dran himself?

>>39161677
I'd argue it's more that people aren't participating because they don't want to start any arguments or say things that might make AE unhappy.

Even looking back on it now, I think my biggest problem with Mendel was, looking at all the time and resources and intelligence, I feel like we just didn't deserve to be able to beat her. Like AE's idea of our savagery being able to overcome Mendel's everything else? It'd always feel like AE was letting us win.

>>39162003
I refuse to believe Decu's claim that we're halfway through MGNQ. We all know how much worse his pacing's gotten over the course of the quest.

>>39162008
Then why are you the one who keeps bringing it up?

>>39161833
Ah, now this is the Hollow Quest I've come to know and love.

Remember when we were a rhyming cat just fucking with people? Those were the best times. I'm going to go trawl the archives for fun.

Although honestly the last few threads have been pretty on-point. Also, the crossovers are straight up godly.

AE should spend some time doing just those whenever it gets to derp in the main quest.

After he shows us how cute Caede has gotten. We should start calling her our Katey Kat and insist she wear cat ears (or try to sneak them onto her all the time).

Of course, we gotta get her Poppa some quality time with her as well to see how big she's grown under our care.

>>39162066
Man, it was more of a question of was Mendel really trying to gun for use, or was she just kind of Yandere for us while being massively overworked. I mean, she has a worldwide organization to look after, and we're just in Japan.

The few times she did focus on us, she fucked us up pretty hard.

But 90% of the time she was just really, really annoyed with us.

But goddamn we have to stop feeding the bears.

>>39162134

>>39162134

Honestly? I feel like that stuff, back when it was just blatantly rehashing Hollow Quest Classic, would have gotten really old, really fast had we just kept doing it.

>>39162221
>the quest will end when Decu finally gets huge
That's never going to happen. He has the HUGE equivalent of anorexia; no matter how much he gains, he's never going to think he's huge.

honestly, I think the longevity is the main reason for the decline in HQR playerbase size.

some got bored with it over time and the big numbers scare away some potential new players.

the shitstorms didn't help either though.

>>39162092
Halfway? Isn't he intending to end it this year? Pretty sure that puts it well over halfway done.
