If I want to see ugly people, I go out on the street. Well, fine. I personally don't see why everyone absolutely has to be pretty all the time in fiction, but to each their own, and all. It's not like I give half a crap about this Aloy gal, anyway. I had no idea this character or game existed before yesterday, and looking at some images, it just looks like your run-of-the-mill triple-A third person shooter that spends half of its runtime trying to be a movie. They can keep their controversies, I'm not interested. EDIT: Just took a short glance at a video. Yep, it's that. It even has the same heavily scripted, ultra lame parkour mechanic that has been shoehorned into every one of these games after Uncharted's release. Boooooooring. Quote I'm all ears So uh, I don't know how far into the game you are, soooo second half spoilers here. Spoiler I was calling the traitor, their specific treasons and the manner in which they achieved them from second one. Dude couldn't figure any of it out until it was spelled out to him. He also writes off blatantly threatening emails as "pranks" and refuses to tell his best friend anything about his predicament - THEIR predicament - for absolutely no reason. Like, I get not telling Mayuri, but Daru? Why keep Daru in the dark? What does he gain from that? Daru's a disgusting pig, but he has his uses! Also literally everything is his fault for one reason or another lol. So yeah, cutting it short before I get carried away, Okarin's useless. But a fun, lovable kind of useless. So I love him.

People complained so they shoved it in here and it makes everything worse. F I mean, I don’t think it has to “fit Edel” to be involved… 6 hours ago, Shrimpy said: From what i read every route is like that, with Claude's being the worst, And here I thought Claude was gonna be better her. Remember when he was actually a master tactician in chapters 6 and 7? Good times. 6 hours ago, Shrimpy said: and Dimitri's the most conclusive but a certain character gets Kaga'd So Dimitri is the same as he was in Three Houses. And that character is Edelgard, right? I saw the cutscene, I’m curious what could possibly be the justification for that. I mean, if it was Agartha, I don’t get why they didn’t do this on other routes. 6 hours ago, Shrimpy said: Apparently the writers didn'T want good endings as to not invalidate 3 Houses or something. But… they’re not bad endings, they’re just incomplete. They’re already shaping up to be better anyways, since the war is so close to being over in half the time as in the OG, meaning less death and suffering. 6 hours ago, Shrimpy said: SMH should've just went with Golden route time plot or something smh For real.

There's plenty of creativity among indies and smaller studios, Nintendo suffers of it to a far lesser extent (an increasing extent, but lesser at the moment) and some AAAs occasionally pop up that are neat. It's really just Sony and Microsoft that seem obsessed with their "cinematic experiences", spending all effort on the graphics and copypasting the gameplay from Uncharted and/or The Last Of Us.

I like giving Ninty hell, but I'd play a thousand of their "shitty modern Mario sports game" cash grabs over any of these "cinematic" wooden planks.

Hello this is "Ruben whines about Hanneman in response to Three Hopes talk" n° 776: Spanish edition. Cagüen Koei por qué quitar mi favorito y no Hilda. Anyway, a golden route would've at least been different. As it is, Hopes just seems like Three Houses: The Director's Cut.

Edge gives owies to enemies with her massive greatsword, because fuck it. How is Nintendo okay with this in the age of ultra safe, soulless Mario spin-offs? I mean, I love it, I'm glad they're okay with it, this is the best Mario spin-off series, but... They fucking turned Mario into Max Payne! They gave Mario Payne two glocks for the price of one!

Those who don't like it could ignore it as it wouldn't be main game canon, while those who do can enjoy it and it wouldn't hurt the main game at all Especially since like everyone in 3H agrees on stuff, it's just one is an impulsive conquerer and the other has secrets to keep the 4 people remaining of her race alive.

BrightBow Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) How many hypno cases are there anyway? FE1: Tiki FE2: Delthea (Thanks for adding like a dozen more cases, Echoes. Really cool.) FE3: Maria, Elise, Lena and Nina FE4: Deidre and Julia FE5: Mareeta. And I suppose there is some ambiguity in regards to how the Dark Warlords work. TRS: Nobody. Enteh in the game's backstory.

Acacia Sgt Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 5 minutes ago, BrightBow said: FE2: Delthea (Thanks for adding like a dozen more cases, Echoes. Really cool.) If you mean about witches, the original already had some implications. There was Delthea, but also Sonya's ending stated how her sisters were "reborn as witches". SoV simply expanded on that. 5 minutes ago, BrightBow said: FE5: Surprisingly nobody. Though I suppose there is some ambiguity in regards to how the Dark Warlords work. Mareeta.

Saint Rubenio Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Well, I just finished one of the games I bought on the Steam sale in 10 minutes flat. I'm scared, confused and unsettled.
