Taking the initiative. It's not like there isn't going to be one in here soon anyway.
Five internets on the hotel thing being a dream or ten on just being unprovable.
>>314098 What if it's limbo?
>>314121 Then I lose my stake. And the quest goes a funky direction.
>>314122 After death, there is only blown fuses and scorched wiring.
Relax said the nightman, we are programed to receive... you can check out any time you like... but you can't never leave...
So when is this thing starting up again?
wut... Also, I too would enjoy a general hint as to when the esteemed Weaver could show his/her next quest update (Nan or Mustachio, either way=win!)
>>314165 Something tells me Nan will update every Thursday.
We need to do some experiments on that doorway between the lobby(ies). Throw some stuff through it.
What I want to know if this is the same Nan whose head was discovered from the wired cabinet in Metal Glen. Because if it is, it gives this Quest rather a depressing twist.
>>314314 Being horrifically mutilated, nay even beheaded means nothing... remember who got shoved through a fan.. he came back, kinda.
>>314314 The goat thang in RubyQuest has bigger horns than Nan. Usually indicates male. So probably not Nan. That or Nan's in Purgatory.
>>314346 Hmm, good point. I was simply assuming they had grown in the intern.
I'm not missing out on another weaver story. >>314098 I'm thinking this.
>>314314 That head could also belong to Gruff, Iggy, Sven, or Chevre. Animal Crossing is a pretty big place. Not big enough for you to ever escape the secrets it burdens you with, nor the terrible knowledge of how thin a veneer the waking world is and what it is stretched over, but, y'know, pretty big. Nan should just climb out a window.
>>314397 Indeed, pic related?
I hope this goes for a very Twilight zone vibe,also hotel California references please let there be mirrors on the ceiling
>>314399 Just remember the steely knives can't kill the beast...
>>314398 Awesome, I haven't seen that poster before. I was aiming for generic Lovecraftian prose there, but yeah, what's the deal with people turning AC into a horror setting? And is Cjopaze a Gyroid or what?
>>314397 >Nan should just climb out a window ...Only to find that she's suddenly climbing -in- the window, into the hotel. Try again!
>>314402 Actually, I hear The Barbed Wheel from a far earlier work of Weaver's called the World Eater Campaign (GURPS I think.) But I can't confirm that, I do know that the World Eater campaign existed, (a thread can be found in the /tg/ archive, but more than that... I don't know.) The reason AC makes for effective horror is because it's familiar, innocent, and ultimately rather childish. The most intense terrors are ultimately those that revert us to the simplicity of a child's terror. Animal Crossing (like any good children's setting) does half the work for you by peeling back those defensive layers of mental callous' to reveal the vulnerable sensitivities of a child's imagination. Primal fears are more effective than learned ones, and this is the reason Slender Man (hehe almost typed Slender Nan) will always be scarier than say, Global Economic Collapse.
>>314402 It's fanart for http://lparchive.org/LetsPlay/Animal%20Crossing/index.html which is an amazing Animal Crossing horror.
>>314424 I just spend the last hour reading that... I am now even more weird-ed out. It wasn't as... shocking as Weaver. but now I just have those ideas and plots roiling uncomfortably at the base of my skull, like a witch's brew on low simmer.
>>314424 ...and suddenly, everything about RQ suddenly makes sense.
>>314424 Oh wow, how much of the stuff in there was not in the real game.
>>314483 Two or three chapters. The rest all was.
>>314483 Everything that looks like an in-game screenshot usually is.
Apparently, one of the Penney Arcade guest comics recently wandered along similar, unsettling paths. I'll see if I can dig it up... ah here it is.
>>314314 >>314397 If I recall correctly that was the head of one Dr. S(ven).
>>314557 There was a Dr. S?
>>314561 Yeah, but I thought it was Dr. S(hrunk)...
>>314557 You're making it up. Dr S. was a reference to Dr. Shrunk.
I hope that thing coming down the hall isn't a troll, because trolls fear billy goats, which are boy goats.
>>314827 god crossing pals is so awesome
>>314827 I lol'd like a nigger
I'm posting the original 120 panel here, which Weaver replaced with bare Nanass, just because I think Nan looks cute in boyshorts. Take that, Weaver!
Odd realization: The OHGODWHATTHEFUCK thing that showed up after the mirror was broken had no blood.
...Maybe the pizza the guy at the arcade gave us had something a little more sinister than sauce under the cheese.
Nan's boyfriend murdered her in a fit of rage by throwing their alarm clock in the tub while she was bathing. What we are seeing is a scrambled mess of Nan's memories before she dies.
>>314830 Wow.. wait why did e' replace it? Is Weaver getting more intentional with the fan-service. Also...>>314832 how do you figure this? Could we get a still frame of the monstrosity?
>>314842 Remember the first horror incident in Rubyquest? BLOOD FUCKING EVERYWHERE, and it looked very similar: mangled and grotesque.
>>314842 To be fair, there isn't any anti-nudity rule for /quest/~
>>314844 >You are a breast. >You're inside some kind of cuppish thing, and it's dark.
>>314845 *funds it*
>>314846 Work your way up with your partner all the way from A to DD! Experiment with hormones, milk, and squeezing! FUN TIMES FOR ALL
>>314842 Lookit how the tail interacts with the boyshorts. Makes sense to me.
>>314830 Nan can
Still frame of monstrosity, you say? Okay, I will provide it.
>>314854 No fresh blood, as I thought.
>>314854 Why does the skinless monstrosity appear to be rather well hung?
>>314856 well it's obviously a reflection of Nan's inappropriate sexual desires.
WAIT DID I MISS PART 2 FUUUUUUUUUUU
Anyone noticed Nan's wearing different clothes now?
>>314880 I was more concerned with the Ia ia Ftagn -memory error- that seems to be going on. On one had I could feel the "wake-up it was all a dream" coming because of clock in the elevator. On the other hand, we now seem to be spontaneously remembering relationships and events we may/may not have ever experienced (boyfreind ect.)
The dark things in the Hotel don't kill Nan. They just want to fuck with her head. What are her real memories, and what are fake? Did she have a boyfriend before entering the Hotel, and just forgot? She didn't mention either way beforehand. Was anything real? Who is Nan? We don't know anything.
>>316044 I-N-T-E-R-E-S-T-I-N-G...
More Nan please?
Seconding the request for more Nan Quest in the near future. 'cause its good stuff.
Goddamn you people. Seeing this thread up made me think I had missed another one. But yeah, thirding.
Fourthing. We need moar nanbutt!
Fifthing the shit out of that idea if not Nan, Nanporn will suffice.
This is a good quest. I hope to see it up again soon.
Yeah, NanQuest is great. I would definitely like to see some more of it.
can someone at least get weaver to post an update schedule, or something? also, sixth(?)ing
How about just letting Weaver do what he feels like and enjoying what's currently on offer
Hate to nag, but I'll have to ninth that request. Dive should still take priority, what with the whole "parallel with Knight Blades" thing, but I would definitely like to see some more Nan in the future.
>>319084 >>319085 XD Oh wow, "More Nan Please?" here. I agree with both of these people; I LOVE DiveQuest and Knight Blades both rather a lot. They're fantastic stories, and I'd not want them to be set aside just for more of this. I am simply letting it be known that I do want more of this in the future, because this is awesome. : D Thanks Weaver!
Also gonna say I <3 Nan.
Nan hips are the best hips
Yeah, when is this starting up again? It's been a long time.
>>319170 It starts up when someone bribes Weaver to do it.
>>319187 Well when is THAT happening?
>>319207 When you feel like ponying up the cash.
Or the steamy, passionate lovemaking. Weaver is a demanding girl.
>>319208 I've got... let's see... $23.44. Is that enough?
>>319226 I have over $105.
reaver and weaver live in the same apartment, yes? someone get me the address and ill buy a pizza for them
>>319261 I think that's only a mysterious myth. Not a legendary legend.
>>319261 Reaver is Dutch and Weaver is Murrican
well shit then. someone find me weavers adress and ill buy her a pizza as a bribe then >_>
>>319268 > her HA HA. No
>>319269 Excuse me sir I have photographic evidence of Weaver's female nature.
>>319272 This doesn't exactly prove anything!
>>319273 Well it might prove that Reaver us a furry and we know he likes to jizz in the turkey. But while I would love to see more Nan quest I do think that Divequest should come first. I want to see how that one plays out between Mushio and Ridder. I don't think it will have a happy end.
Reaver is weaver's fursona.
>>319274 Thing is, no one except Weaver and Reaver (and maybe not even them) have any idea how close to finishing Dive Quest and Knight Blades are. But what's to stop Weaver from updating Nan Quest before the next chapter of Dive? personally I'd like to see the next chapter of Dive before he picks up Nan again
>>319272 I'm honestly surprised none of you recognize the girl in the picture, or recognize Weaver's art style. Reaver is a bit harder, but still entirely possible to figure out given the clues that have been dropped (or at least make an educated guess)
Nanbump.
i am flipping the fuck out!
Okay, just posting my thoughts in a place I can find them later. 1.) It was 6:30 AM when Nan first woke up. There was a clock next to her bedside at that time. 2.) Nan did one job, then waited 5 minutes before rewiring the outlet in the hotel. 3.) Nan then found a clock in the elevator, reading 4:66 PM. 4.) Nan wakes up back in her bed, with Henry(?). Her alarm clock is displaying "weird numbers." Henry informs her that it is 10:30. 5.) Nan is back in the hotel, still with the clock reading 4:66 AM. Actually, now that I think about it, 4:66 doesn't make any sense as a time.
Any significant symbolism on 4:66 then, with or without colons?
theres also the whole "60 minutes in an hour" thing... anyways, anon44 did this :V
I was trying to see if I could start at the beginning of the day and could the time, to see if the clock stopped at roughly the time Nan finished the outlet. I guess I misread the 4:66 for an actual meaningful time, though. Still, following the clock is interesting. I'm wondering if the one Nan is holding is supposed to be the one in her bedroom. We have a working (red light) clock in Nan's bedroom at the start. We get the 4:66 (red light) clock in the elevator. Nan sees a "weird numbers" (not shown) clock in her bedroom a second time. The clock in her possession has always shown 4:66, which are certainly some odd numbers for a clock. >>323066 466 upside down is 99h. Neither 6 nor 4 works very well sideways, though.
Nan fan art. Because goats nom shirts!
>>323075 To be fair, goats nom a lot of things.
>>323069 Random Experimentation ahead ----------- 4+6+6=16, 1+6=7 46+66= 112 | Is there something in room 112? We need to enter there. 4=d, 6=f -- dff four six six - 6-15-21-18, 19-8-24, 19-8-24 -- 60-51-51 -- 162 | Maybe something will be revealed on update 162
>>323080 Stop that. You can find any pattern you want using very few numbers.
