Description:
Pax, Noam, and Sai are Anomals, who have to hide their Vox powers to avoid persecution from the governments of Pacifica and the American Republic. The trio is recruited by Theo to help steal data from the technocratic government of Pacifica and to deliver it to Nova Scotia. Unfortunately, this also makes them fugitives as they flee from the authorities of both states. Pax, being the unofficial leader, must use her own Vox powers and social skills wisely in order to make it to Nova Scotia and hopefully find a new home where she and her friends can be free.

0:00 Recap
0:34 Cleaner Adjunct Boss Fight (Hard)
There are now more Versus screens right before fights, including the Adjunct.
I actually pulled off two counterattacks. It looks cool, but it's not as easy to use as Taunt, since you need frame perfect timing. The patch made guarding easier by allowing you to hold the guard button, but only the first few guard frames will activate a counterattack.
IMO, counterattacking needs to be buffed for how difficult it is to pull off. It should at least have guaranteed stun just like how Taunt has guaranteed knockdown.
Turns out the barrier wall can stagger you, so try not to run to the wall by instinct.
I think I got hit twice in that entire fight, lol. Also, I didn't use any Vox. Instead, I relied solely on the EM bat that Ziggy gave me. Sisterly bonds FTW!
Finally, I actually had no idea that having allies allowed Pax to auto-rez on lower difficulties. I always reloaded whenever Pax got KOed.
4:23 Load Menu
We can now access subsaves in a single slot, but loading an older save deletes newer ones. Make sure to create backups.
4:44 Updated Coda Comics
Theo now has a Coda and we get to see what Beatrice looks like.
11:13 Post Credits Scene
The Rotown robots found Caretaker's head and revived them. Is CT a prisoner or leader?
13:21 Saving the Cop in Issue 0
You can use Block before he moves into the lane, but will he remember and report this incident?
14:33 JFK Lore
The "Stolen Legacy" book claims JFK wanted to use Justice for the sake of public safety, but his presidential successors misused Justice's power and turned America into an authoritarian state. Still, I'm thinking about Pax and Ziggy's argument about JFK, with Ziggy believing the book while Pax believing JFK wanted authoritarianism. It's possible JFK did have good intentions, but didn't realize that he concentrated too much political power into a single agency, making it easy to abuse.
16:23 Wrapping Up
I'm sure people will be angry at me once again for daring to post a vanilla LP video of Dustborn, among other informational things I have done concerning this game.
