Ahhhh SAO.. Love that series.. also Imma eat whoever stokes the beta flame fire >.> But I believe it is indeed an Octopus.. atleast if we were going for real life pictures, buuuut~ it's a game.. so it could be anything... Even the volcanic eyes of a giant planet boss >.> or the eyes of a giant flying sword! .. only the devs know. Either way, keep up the good work guys! Love ya molly~ and don't ever take crap from the internet. *sagenods*
I thought it was a squid, but look: the color palette of the squid does not match. Unless there are multiple squid colors, I dont think its the infamous Earth destroying squid we were thinking of. (Although you cant argue that it is particularly squid-like in shape and eyetype factors.) Source:
"O ym gd guys! A veyr smal picture of the bas tat shows it'ss i! Tat meens teh beeta is commig owt soon!" says the idiot.
They wouldn't make the second tier boss the thing that destroyed earth. I mean that's like reading the entire half of the book and finally being introduced to the bad-guy and have him shot and killed immediately.
TRANSLATION: Oh my gosh golly fellows! A rather small image of the boss! That means the beta is due to be released on a near date! Well, who said they needed to do the bosses in order? I personally dont believe they [Chucklefish] are.
Or it could just be, you know, some alien. But I'm down for a bagel-goat-frogtopus any day of the week Also, I noticed someone brought up the moon from majoras mask and considering that being Molly's favorite game or something like that, I really hope to see some similar reference(s) in-game.
