The problem with the dialogue was mostly gone. That's good to know, heh. Even if I still don't see eye to eye over what constitutes dialogue as necessary or otherwise.

Armagon Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 I have aquired the schmoovement (and bombs, you need them to get here) before fighting Kraid, when normally you would've fought him already and gotten the Diffusion Beam. You can also get the Grapple Beam before any of this but it's much easier to do with the Flash Shift. And I have been going pretty fast. Right now I'm clocking in at an hour and 12 minutes. 3 hours ago, Acacia Sgt said: Save-Quit skits have always been a highlight, heh.

How, if ever, has SRW dealt with stories set not on Earth nor the nearest planets? Is that a requirement? Do the characters have to be earthbound (heh) to be in SRW?

Although this year, I sort of forgot about it. When I was little I would count down the days until my birthday, but this year I wasn’t exactly waiting for it, I kind of forgot about it. My mom says that’s what happens when you get older, RIP. Hope everyone else had a good day. Happy birthday Sooks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Endless Frontier guys are an exception though that's an SRW spin-off. Missed this. Well, it all depends on what the complete roster is. If enough series are off-Earth, then the game will dedicate an arc to the heroes traveling out throughout the Galaxy. Alpha 3 is a good example of this, since once everything that happens on the Earth Sphere is wrapped up, they spent the remainder of the game outside the Solar System. In other cases, if the location isn't strictly necessary, they just transplant the events to happen in and around the Earth Sphere. Heavy Metal L-Gaim is usually a common example of this. The Pentagona Star System, where the series takes place, doesn't always show up in SRW, the characters arrive to Earth and then most of their story happens there and around. Dunbine usually tends to have its final events also take place on Earth, even when the original story returned to Byston Well for the final arc. Sometimes events get shuffled as needed by the overall plot, even if the location change isn't as drastic. Endless Waltz is like the best example of this. The final events normally take place in Brussels. In SRW? It has taken place in Jaburo, New York, and even Kayes. So ultimately, SRW can adapt as needed.

I thought I remember reading something about visiting the Balmar Empire in Alpha 3, that explains it. Thanks. Yeah, XG -again, as near-impossibly unlikely as it would be needs to take place on a remote planet. Remote enough for, oh, 10000 years to pass without disturbance from outside. 15 minutes ago, Armagon said: That's a banger song.

Brussels is the capital of the European Union IRL, so if the enemy's goal is "conquer the world", they'd be wanting to consider taking it if the EU or a proxy fantasy institution exists that is set there.

Benice Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 1 hour ago, Ghost_06_ said: Now I understand why the game didn't ask me to choose language. A couple of the games let you choose, (OG Yakuza 1, Judgement, Lost Judgement and Like a Dragon), but games 2-6 and 0 are all Japanese-exclusive for voices. From what I've heard, Lost/Judgement and LAD both have mostly good voice acting for english, though. The same cannot be said for Y1. Fortunately, the devs realized this and removed english voice acting from Y2. 1 hour ago, Ghost_06_ said: Also, I'm curirous on what story you think is the worst. Yakuza 4. It's got some neat characters, good music and a good premise, but...Zoinks, the story becomes so bad it's funny about halfway through. Mostly because of one extremely questionable plot point relevant to the whole game. Furthermore, each of the four playables get a "final" boss...Except basically only one or two of the bosses fought are relevant-One of 'em appears in the game, like, twice before his fight and isn't relevant to anything going on, and the other...Well, I don't take as much exception to him, but he still ain't final boss material. To give credit, though, they end it off with a good boss story-wise. I personaly rank Yakuza stories as: Kino tier, practically impossible to top: Yakuza 0, Like a Dragon, Kiwami 2 (Majima Saga) Ridiculously fantastic tier: Yakuza 3, Kiwami 2 (Kiryu Saga), Yakuza 4 parts 1/2 Ok story which is elevated to great through presentation/prequel material: Kiwami 1 ...Wait, who's the final boss? tier: Yakuza 5 Get drunk with the lads and laugh tier: Yakuza 1, Yakuza 4 parts 3/4/5. I didn't finish watching Yakuza 6's playthrough, but I didn't think too much of it; I do know that the ending is supposed to be one of the best scenes in the series, and it does have many fans. (Don't search the ending up, though!) I also haven't seen much Lost/Judgement, so I can't comment, but they're supposed to be kino as well, as the kids say.

Armagon Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Ah, that immaculate schmoovement. Getting the Super Missiles early definitely is gonna pay off thanks to that extra firepower. (I don't get them in the clip but there is literally one path forward from here). Short while after this, I hit the two hours mark. Yeah, I'm getting that sub-4 hour run, I've got it in the bag.

"Sword vs axe: +20 hit/avoid, +1 attack/def Lance vs sword: +5 hit/avoid, +3 attack/def Axe vs Lance: +10 hit/avoid, +2 attack/def" Magic trinity goes the same, but there's also a triangle for the three anima types. I can never remember how that goes, forgive me. "anima magic vs light magic and anima magic triangle: +15 hit/avoid, +1 attack/def light magic vs dark magic: +5 hit/avoid, +3 attack/def dark magic vs anima: +25 hit/avoid" Then there's bows, which just beat all magic, no questions asked. "Bow vs magic when initiating combat: +20 hit/avoid, +1 attack/def Bow vs magic when under attack: +5 hit/avoid" I didn't even know it was different in EP lol, thanks guide.
