Jesus, have you guys kissed a woman once in your life?

I loved learning who Ezra really was, realizing on my own exactly how old he must really be, and trying to understand what actually happened to him.

I did not, and do not, wish to be forced into fighting him.

You may not be interested in Tchort, but Tchort is interested in you. But I have good news, there is a secret Tchort ending. Simply get as close as possible to him during the fight and continually press end turn.

Honestly surprised to see people wanting to side with it at all. Realistically, you'd get sent on a suicide mission to kill the Faceless or more likely get told to jump into the vats.

Seriously, besides tentacle fetishists, who would want to be friends with this thing?

I see Tchort as a devourer. Its not a hive mind, but a consciousness that arose specifically from the mutegenic soup. It's willfully cruel, spiteful, and manipulative, with a desire to consume and obtain more power. That might be influenced by the original organics it was formed from, or simply as an animal that attains a higher level of intelligence but is still driven by base instincts.

And when do you actually see that? Right, when you're already shoe-horned into this retarded position of having to abandon the best faction in the game. The Tchortists are impressive in terms of their technology, resources, and organisation. They also have an actual goal: figuring out a way to repopulate the surface. It appears like they're making progress, learning things, and could eventually achieve this. Only... the game is racist against Tchort and makes you attack him rather than repel the faceless murder hobos who spaz out because they lost some cube toy. It's ridiculous. Tchort is evolution, evolution is Tchort, simple as.

I'd wager Tchort is simply a vessel for something else, not a new consciousness, but a fragment of some long dead leviathan. Would explain its hate for the Godmen and therefore the Faceless (as well as their weakness to it).

I mean, the protagonist stole the cube in the first place and Tanner does his thing (ie. thought control) to send you to get it back. Since you (or Ezra for that matter) can't break from Tanner's influence, there's no choice to be made about killing Tchort or not.

>tfw can't leave DC without killing Tchort because the button to make an elevator functional is next to Tchort (said elevator is at the other end of the caverns, the button is there just because)
>also an angel tells you to do it

Underrail fans are the kind of people who would find the moss growing on a tree interesting, or would collect butterflies.

Moss is more interesting than you
