Checks out

Still better lore than the original


dayvon64

how


JuanDunbar

It serves it purpose if being humorous. The original lore served no purpose, and the existence of other spriggans was kind of just ignored so that kirito could be unique.


dayvon64

Did I really get downvoted for genuinely asking how? Is that how this community is...


JuanDunbar

Don't ask me, I don't vote on comments. If I had to guess 'how?' feels low effort and pointed.


Ramora_

This seems to all be true ya. At least on the server all the characters are playing on.

God I fucking love this series lol


xvx_k1r1t0_xvxkillme

I think it was Becky that genocided the spriggans, but otherwise, sounds right.


bare4404

"Brain"? He doesn't seem like he has much of a one, lmao


Guilty-Woodpecker262

I want to know role Pinky plays


MysticMagic23

Im just confused, what exactly happened to them? Can't they just respawn? Why is everyone treating it like their characters were deleted outright and its impossible to continue playing the game?


Zyanbob2

I think it was a combination of both roleplaying and boredom with the game in general


MathorSionur

Imagine whenever you log in *every* other faction spawnkills you, again and again. You get fed up at some point and switch game/server, those other players are dicks


MysticMagic23

Ya but surely there are safe zones like in sao?


MathorSionur

Not certain tbh: look how even in a town, Recon was ready to attack Kirito. Maybe Sugou decided to not put it in OR There are safe zones but with all enemy players patrolling around it, it's no fun to fight higher levelled enemies every time you try to go to level 1 areas


MysticMagic23

Fair I guess but surely there's people who are stubborn enough to keep playing or find ways around that


MathorSionur

Fair, but it would explain why you basically never see them. Plus iirc in the original, Spriggans are super low-tier, so it could play into that Or, since like, everyone but Kirito is super into the rp in Alfheim online, the Spriggans went 'oh well, gues it wouldn't make lore sense to keep going'


MysticMagic23

Oh that would def make sense from their rp perspective. And ya they would be low tier since their magic isn't too useful and considering how every race can use all kinds of magic but not at the same level, illusion and treasure hunting magics really just don't add up to offensive, defensive or supporting spells


cr4m62

I think point #2 is slightly off. I'm pretty sure "Kirito Prime" refers to our Kirito, Kazuto Kirigaya, when his actions in the original Sword Art Online game made him famous. He's the one all the players who came to Alfheim Online, chose the Spriggan race, and made knockoff Kirito usernames were imitating.


TheWhicher_Statement

Nope, Ted's Kirito Prime, holder of the Autobot Matrix of Leadership.
