Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
At this point I fully expect the final epilogue to be Ardon reverting to being a sociopathic monster, and El and Odie breaking up since those were the literally the only plot points that haven't been undone so far.
Oh, maybe Odie's family can get kidnapped again and Peanut can have some brain damage. That way we'll have truly come full circle.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
Is the author just trolling now?

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
So these are three more badguys returning into operation: The nightmare effer, the timetravel demon and the technosquiddies that were nuked by the eladrin before.
What's next, the Archwarlock re-appearing with the two coward guards, the animal-controlling sorcerer-kid and his black super-bull as henchmen?
Is Lonestar already writing the sequel which will be published under a new name?participate in fan translations of OotS to your native language:

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
the final update is just going to be all these returning villains clashing into one another as they try to enact their plans, nullifying eachother and making like none of it happened.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
I would be fine with that, get a chuckle out of it.
Still seems a bit weird to make five epilogues just to tell a brick joke and/or troll the readers.
And I also don't know why he would need to change the name, or do a sequel story at all vs. just continuing this one. I am still pretty sure they never actually got gold for saving the world.
I would say these are adventure hooks for for a D&D book or something, except the first one only matters to the main characters of the webcomic.Last edited by Lizard Lord; 2021-10-14 at 02:08 PM.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
You know, I've been following this comic for so long now that I only vaguely remember everything that happened. I was planning on binge rereading it now that it's over, but this ending has changed mind. I think I'd rather just move on.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
I thought it was quite alright. It wasn't an exceptional ending, but you can't always hit a home run, And it felt fitting to me—WSWFG always felt like it had extra threads lying around. Might as well shine a light on the incompleteness.
Of course, I wish there weren't all these extra epilogues.
Yeah, definitely seconding.
I think one of the epilogues might've explained how it happened?
Nice find!

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
This is really the only epilogue that helped enhance the story in my opinion. I really enjoy it even as I feel the other four soured things.
Also any guesses as to what class Schmoopy took?Last edited by Lizard Lord; 2021-10-20 at 08:32 PM.

Something that can reliably use a scroll of sending I'd say.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
Blog post about LoneStarNorth’s work moving forward. https://willsaveworldforgold.com/202...orld-for-gold/ .
I recorded a bit of LoneStarNorth’s talks, prior to the above post, from a twitch stream on October 24th if anyone is interested:
SpoilerWill Save World for Gold 2: NOT confirmed. It is not happening, so says LSN.
“Why would you reveal […] certain plot lines aren’t as resolved as we thought?”
“To answer, a Tad Williams quote/paraphrase from Memory, Sorrow and Thorn (epic fantasy). We learn a prophesy about a pair of twins, of the hardship they will someday face. Williams was asked about this ending and these new characters or mentioned in an afterword. He answered with ‘No, at this time I don’t have any intention of continuing this story and world. I wanted to show the readers that even though this story is done, the world in which it took place is still going on.’”
“The point of the epilogues- the world will go on. People are free to write about or speculate about what will happen.”
“Again, Will Save Multiverse for Gold won’t be a thing. The next thing I’m going to work on- still untitled- is going to be a community-based sort of game comic. Homestuck/Problem Sleuth but with more game elements, Dwarf Dungeon, Goblins Comic forum games, and so-on. Small group of characters are given instructions/suggestions from the audience.”
“It is going to have permadeath. If the main character, it ends, no retries or continuation. This is a fun experiment, not the next BIG project following WSWFG. This thing will still be a narrative, a story, it will have jokes/humor.”
I understand if the forum doesn’t agree with his angle for the epilogues, but this was his intent.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
I get the intent, but you are right that I still disagree that he needed to dig up finished plotlines to make that point. The final epilogue plus Ardon's final speech are more than enough. The other epilogues are less "The world moves on" and more "problems don't actually get solved".

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
Yeah, hard pass on his future works. I'm perfectly capable of making my own stories if I want. That's not the reason I invest in someone else's work.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
That's very well said. It's one thing to be told "the adventure goes on" and quite another to be told "we didn't actually resolve any plot lines, make up your own endings."

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
I know I won't get answers and, for this particular question, I am fine with that but how did Schmoopy get an adventurer class anyways? Isn't the whole deal with Ardon's backstory that an NPC can't just take on a class? He had to break to the world to get a class and it came back slightly broken since he can't get feats.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
Maybe your question is its own answer? Ardon broke the world, and now that its broken, other NPCs can use the loophole he carved out.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
If Schmoopy is using the same loophole that means he can't get feats as well. Which I suppose isn't really a problem for him since he is just interested in the bonus hp anyways and probably won't level up much.
Also no point in speculating his class since he would be given a random one.Last edited by Lizard Lord; 2021-11-10 at 04:28 PM.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
I would bet that the answer is that the author put the same amount of thought into that as he did the rest of the ending. None.

Re: Will Save World For Gold Too
Huh ... I quit reading this comic at some point but did consider picking it back up eventually (I mostly just lost track of where I left of and felt too lazy to figure it out.)
... By the sound of it maybe not entirely worth the investment to continue?
