I didn't really think about it msyelf when I played the game. But today, I wanted to listen to the Democrawler OST and went on YouTube to find a gameplay of the boss fight.

I noticed that just before the Democrawler fight begins, the boss 'unplugs' itself from a cluster of wires. The only other 'unplugging' scenario I've witnessed in the game was when Eve unplugged the singing Angel in one of the side-quests in the Great Desert.

This made me wonder, is the Democrawler / Demogorgon also an Angel turned Naytiba? Democrawler has a halo on its head the entire time. Demogorgon is also a literal biblical Angel in its appearance.

Infact, in the singing angel mission, the dying angel conveys that there's a traitor in the 4th Airborne Squad. Does the game ever elaborate who this member was? Do we know more about their identity?

At the start of the fight, Adam easily restricts Providence, then basically doesn't fight you, if you just do nothing, Adam never seems to attack. He only might attack rarely when you attack him, and even then it's like one light attack.

After all that attacking by Eve, and him not even seemingly blocking, he seems totally okay.

Afterwards, providence keeps attacking him, and its attacks basically do nothing, they are all easily blocked without Adam even getting up or moving. With a swap of his hand, Adam knocks both Providence and Eve a good distance away.

Then he basically zips to and one-shots providence, a unit that gave Eve real trouble, and he does this without harming Lily at that, a feat even more impressive (granted, she was holding back due to Lily being inside and not using angel powers, but still, and Angel powers come from Adam anyways), then easily dodges Eve's attack afterwards.

And he does all this prior to transforming, so even without transforming, he seems really powerful.

So do you think, Adam could've beat Eve (tbf, even without transforming) but didn't?

First off, amazing game! Superb combat, beatufiul visuals, fun explroation, and Eve was surpsiungly a really great protagonist. Cannot wait for Bloodrain! Will be an insta-purchase from me this time but back to the topic at hand

The story was really interesting but it kind of got complicated and hard to understand, especially when Raven entered the picture, so here are the main questions that I have after the story.

1. Is ANYONE in the story actually biologically human?

So the naytiba monster WERE humans once, meanwhile all the angels and the people in the colony are just robots gaslighted into thinking they are human. That said, what about the people of Xion. Some have heavy cybernetic augmentations, but others like Kaya look completely normal. And yet they all need to "charge" in the cradle. So NOBODY in this story is actually biologically human right?

2. If the people of Xion are andro-eidos as well, how did they end up stuck on Earth? Did Mother Sphere intentionally put them there?

3. What exactly is the timeline of Airborne Squads? Like between the first squad to Eve's how many years have passed?

4. Are the naytibas like a hivemind?

At the end, Lilly accuses Adam of throwing them out to space. Is this implying Adam as the Elder actually controlled the Demogorgon as well as every other Alpha Naytiba through the whole story?

5. Did Orcal know who Adam actaully was since he himself was a naytiba?

6. What exactly makes one a naytiba?

This always confused me, especially with Tachy, besides growing an extra flesh wing, she was pretty much exactly the same, and yet she is classified as an Alpha naytiba. And what was up with Raven? Was she essentially wearing her form like a costume? Did she lose it permanently when EVE beat her with it? How does Adam and Raven turn supposed androids into flesh monsters?

7. Where is the Colony?

Is it literally just right next to Earth? The Return to Colony ending made it seem that way, which makes absolutely no sense scientifically

Edit: 8. I forgot to ask this one. What was up with Lilly's backstory and Iberis?

So when we first meet Lilly, she said she was trapped in her pod for 2 years before Eve found her. But then later changed her story that she actually was out of her pod and had a whole garden sanctuary set up with Iberis? What was that all about? Also, what's the point of Iberis? She literally just gets brought up for 30 seconds, doesn't talk or do anything, plays absolutely zero role to the plot nor is ever mentioned again. Like wtf was her deal about?

Thanks in advance for the answers!

Currently I reached the 1st point of no return and wanted to know if achivement or Nanosuit is missable from these areas?

Currently I have done all side missions (except fishing currently inprogress) and I think i got all?

Can anyone tell me missable stuff or is there a list you guys follow or something? I just knew that there is an area when I get lily affinity to 100% but not sure if I got it or not yet, is this missable too now?

This game is much more than a beautiful protagonist.

Unforgiving boss fights
Beautiful World Design
Secrets to find

And a good partner robot as well

A solid 9/10
