WTF video games: Megaman starforce Patrick sprigs.
Ok, for anyone who have played the StarForce games, lucky you since I have no idea of where I can get them or if they would work on my old ds. But as of recently, ever since I found out about the game, I fell in love with the game including the characters and the storyline (but more on the characters, the storyline is kind of flat in my opinion). And with one of my personal favorite, I introduce to you the character Patrick Sprigs. However, there are a few things about Patrick that Capcom Should have cleared up or put in more detail at very least. And just about anything that is related to him. Like how did he meet Gemini or why does even have DID? That is what I want to cover.
1) His split personality, Rey: FIRST AND FOREMOST OF WHY THE HECK DOES PATRICK HAVE A SPLIT PERSONALITY?
a) Now let’s get one thing straight: the general definition for dissociative identity disorder (DID) or more commonly known as split personality disorder is that: ‘there are two or more personalities in one person’s conscience.’ And apparently, the known recorded cases for DID, a majority of them have reported either sexual and/or physical abuse. what does this mean for Patrick? Well, let’s look at the facts: he was founded in a DUMP SITE near Dream Park, sometime later on he develops Rey and wants to destroy the world. And the kid’s a fifth grader. meanwhile we get no glimpse of who or how he was being raised. Red flags everywhere!
b) But more specifically, how is it possible that Rey and Patrick even knows that the other even exist and that Rey knows fully well that he himself is just part of Patrick’s psyche? Look at the beginning of this video to see what I mean; Rey and Patrick’s discussion.
c) And on the other hand, for Gemini, why would he try to justify is actions by calling out all the horrors of the world when it’s obvious that he just as happy showing off that he wanted to do it for his own amusement and bring Patrick along with him?
2) Where and for how long did he and Gemini have been together?
a) That will be the question for the ages, but if I remember correctly in the English dub of the anime he said that he actually mastered EM wave change and in the anime and games he is one of the toughest bosses Geo has, so it does imply a long time no doubt.
3) Why did Cepheus revive Gemini and he is still with pat in the second game? a) Maybe he found something in him that showed that he actually cared for Patrick?
4) The Alternate Future’s EM beings have different personalities then their original counterparts, but not Gemini sparks IF.
b) In this dimension, there are no humans –after the Le Mu incident, of course- so this one is iffy, but since Patrick and Rey don’t exist anymore here, how is it that the black and white halves individually have separate personalities and transform into two bodies if one assumes that they are just one sentient EM being? Look at video: MMSF2 dragon ApolloFlame part 3/4
c) Back on the subject at hand, let’s just assume that despite the title having the word ‘Alternate’ in it, it really is a parallel version of the main universe. Meaning that very thing that has happened there is completely different to the one we know of and let’s not forget that none of them even knew that megaman even existed. So if that is the case, wouldn’t it be reasonable to assume that this Gemini is acting of his on his own accord and the one we know and love is hiding something personal?
This is something that I made up a about two years ago about the character analysis Patrick sprigs from the series: Megaman Starforce. How he could have came to be with his split personality of Rey and why Gemini is with him in the first place at the whizzaps of the second game after the first. Or do any of you think I’m overanalyzing it all?
(ps. the video’s link will be added on later after revision) p.s. I will be reviewing this and editing it to make it better and more understanding.
Wow...this was really a different response then I thought, Great job! -I was thinking more about >o< (Oh God!) then 0~0 ( how do I explain this one!?) XD
but nevermind, Great response!
I have to ask; how is it possible that you two can split apart when fusing into Gemini Sparks, if Rey happens to be just a split personality? If he is just a 'personality' then wouldn't that mean when pat fuse into Gemini S., Pat -by all logic- would still have 'Rey' as part of his psyche rather than actual separate entity of Gemini B -something that can think and act on it's own? Or is there something darker going on that no one -including you two- knows about....?
This one… requires some explanation. I’m sorry if it gets long beyond your liking.
I’ve never had reason to admit it, but before Gemini… it’s pretty much exactly as you described. I only had the faintest idea that Rey existed. We couldn’t communicate. I’d only have my lapses in memory to go off of… it was incredibly scary.
After Gemini came to me and lured me into his plan, we Wave Changed for the first time. Rey and I were separate. I could hardly believe it then, but after that, when we unmerged… I could start hearing him. Believe me, he was just as confused as I was. So, I suppose you could blame it on Gemini, from my knowledge… I’m always afraid that whatever radiation he gives off would have some other, more terrible side effect. I’m glad it hasn’t come to that.
…You say ‘something darker’, but I think alien science is pretty dark already. I still have regrets about it.
Thank you! Thank you for posting this! I couldn’t help but to notice they have the same personalities too. Raises some very interesting questions about the relationship between Gemini and Patrick as whole and the individuals as well.
I can’t wait to see what your Headcannons are and looking forward to reading them! \(^v^)/
((So more people are in the know about my obscure little nerds here, I decided to post some post-fight dialogue for Gemini Spark IF, too. ….This of course meant I had to go fight them again. ._. But it wasn’t a huge hassle. …White IF is so eerily silent when he’s deleted, I’m not sure how to feel.
And Geo still thinks he’s Pat, aaahh ;-; Fun fact, Gemini Spark IF is the only IF boss to keep their original’s personality, so I could see his confusion.
Omega-Xis gets things back on track, though, so that’s good. I never paid much mind to this section of the game, but now it outright fascinates me. I’m even starting to write some headcanons and such for these guys. The pre-fight dialogue can be found —> here.))
I wish you knew how and why I stay awake when your not here.. Because if I don't then it means I won't have to fall asleep and wake up with you by my side...
Chasan(meant change the name)
Anyways i meant do a comic how chasan wass made
But goes like sans was falling down and was getting more worse each day, someone must have injured him really hard because he was not that old yet.(They still don't know who) But chara and frisk met each other again after the first genocide player did, chara was basically telling frisk to reset and maybe try finding a way to stop in the secret lab while frisk kept refusing it.(The player did a few of pacifist route because they were feeling guilty)It went back and forth until chara finally tells another solution which requires frisk soul to make it work, frisk agrees to the solution because this meant be the only chance they have left.
A few days later after sans staying in the room and only eating when food is at the door, sans appears in the kitchen in the morning looks like he got the ketchup but he seems different. With a human eye on one of the eyes with another pair of hands and a different shirt and with vines all over his spine.. and a necklace that looks like...
He seems like he's old self but more menacing..
