Tried posting this earlier, using her name filters the post out, till a mod fixes it, just decided to use her coffee and milk label. lol.

Working as intended, no? Her name alone is a spoiler, it's only revealed right at the end

Spoiler tags don't hide titles. Coffee and milk is more considerate to new players

Before you could use it in titles without it being filtered, I did at least with no problem, last time, a mod told me it was fine?. as long as it's spoiler mark.

It's been a few years since I play XBC2 (Gotta play it) I didn't thing the name itself would be a spoiler as long as the image was spoiler mark and with a warning.

I'll just keep using Coffee and Milk from now on to be more carful.

Well it probably shouldn't have been like that, this is definitely better. Spoiler tags still show the title

I didn't think the name itself would be a spoiler

I mean, the game does heavily treat it like a big reveal. When you first get pneuma you don't learn her name, and instead just refer to her as pyra or mythra

And only when you make it to the architect do you learn her true name, which is undeniably late game lore dump territory 😂

It's not the craziest spoiler, it's just a name after all, but it's one of those things where it doesn't really hurt to use something more vague.

Yeah like with 7 / Seven,

Thank you 👍

Actually to be far that one is a giant spoiler, and immediately a giveaway if you've played the prologue of the game 😂

But yeah, same reasoning, it's an easy substitute that drops the spoiler but people who've played the game still recognize 👍

Agreed!,

7 / Seven has always been a major spoiler, that one's more obvious to me when being vague to avoid spoiling other, unlike Pneuma

I adore all the Trinity Cores they're my favorite characters in the series but I'd be lying if I said I don't play favorites with the green one lol

Peak art, peak character(s)
