Talk:Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen/@comment-174.97.132.249-20150303054644/@comment-94.15.228.250-20151116043735

Actually, there is a difference.

Would you say it's an alternate person? Nope. It'd be a different person.

It's used for "Alternate Universe" Or, AU for short, because it is the exact same, with one or two slight differences.

For example, Universe A, the Arisen kills the dragon, takes his heart back, and then goes on to stab God in the heart.

Universe B, the Arisen makes a deal that tears the world asunder, ruins the Eternal Ring, and trapps himself in the body of a demon.

The only difference here is the personality of the Arisen. Perhaps the Arisen wasn't given enough hugs in the second, but regardless, there's the difference. The Universe itself is no different, just the actions that have taken place within it.
