>>31203949Nothing suggests specific difference, but nothing suggests specific adherence either. For example, is May identical to her original counterpart? Does Team A/M send you down to subdue the Primals in the original?
None of the specifics are stated except for the alternate world is a little different. And a little difference is all that is needed to change it from identical. Are Anabel and Looker the same Anabel and Looker from every game? Most likely not, given the newly introduced wormholes.
They can't define a 100% canon, especially with the new plot elements they introduce every gen. Sun and Moon bring prominent elements in there, especially with the wormholes, the alternate Day/Night world, etc., which even if the protag does not visit, is an alternate universe.
So many alternate universes with minor differences and more being introduced, it really is a pointless endeavor to try and state one specific timeline as the only possible one.
>>31204051So why bother arguing it if you only wish to acknowledge certain parts rather than the whole thing?
