What crime? The crime of repeated use of "The baby?" Well storks are terrifying now (Warning: death): Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that's one hell of a relief, haha. Certainly motivates me to get through what I've left of the Dad Tasks. Shouldn't be very long, anyway, I'm already at the top of the tower with the journalist and his weird photographer. I mean... there’s my edit. But yeah, there’s an actual plot that’s not let’s do mundane tasks until x happens the entire game unless you’re like me and do the side quests. 1 minute ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...Seriously though, I straight up dozed off during Alba's history lesson.

Common complaints i've heard: The gameplay sucks They ruined Samus' character "Not a real Metroid" game Now the only Metroid game i've played is Super Metroid but i'm really curious to know what my opinion on Other M would be considering i'm not like, a Metroid megafan.

Acacia Sgt Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Hmm, that one must be a revised art, since they took out the cigar. I don't think they're there in the game itself either. Edited May 13, 2021 by Acacia Sgt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, that's what a good chunk of Berwick Saga is and I love it. If the character interactions are fun, that's okay. The problem right now is that it seems they only know how to do two things: make fun of Estelle for being a dummy and not girly and remind me that Joshua is awesome and also really mysterious. And considering I like Estelle and don't like Joshua, it's starting to get really annoying. Once other characters enter the fray, I should hope there'll be at least some more dynamics at play that will not get old quite so fast. 11 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: that's getting a bit too much in Character I'm finding myself relating to Estelle way more than I thought I would. Really do wish the game would stop bullying her all the time, it's getting so fucking old. Charizard, too, in her limited screentime. Then again, she's had like ten minutes before disappearing because the game needed even more time to bully Estelle, so... ...Honestly, that's one of my two main gripes with the game right now, alongside gameplay being boring. Estelle getting bullied was funny like the first five times, but after thirty or forty scenes like that, it's just making me hate Joshua.

null Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 There's a reason Estelle is besto protagonist. Can't say I know of a protagonist in games or animanga who is written as relatably or realistically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re not interested in Joshua’s mystery? I mean of all the characters he’s the one I want to learn more about, none of them have yet to knock my socks of other than sorta kinda Olivier.

The first two or three times it was like "hey that's ominous! I'm interested to know more!" but when the game did it for the 15th time I was like "yeah, yeah, I know, Joshua is really mysterious, can we get a move on, please?" Game really should've given me Schera instead of writing her out for no reason. This whole stretch would've been so much better if it wasn't just Estelle and Joshua... 3 minutes ago, Sooks said: It sort of will. At least let her win sometimes, goddamnit. So far those scenes feel like they only exist so Joshua gets to look like the smart one. And that's gonna make me hate his guts sooner than later if it doesn't stop.

Acacia Sgt Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) If anything, I feel her character archetype doesn't get enough flak on the grand scheme of things in fiction, so if anything it's refreshing Trails does that. But well, I could be wrong. Edited May 13, 2021 by Acacia Sgt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But well, I could be wrong. Yeah, I get it. Sometimes it is warranted, she's a short-tempered jerk. But so far in Trails it's too much, man, way too much. They bully her for anything and everything. Even when she does literally nothing wrong and everything right the NPCs find a way to somehow bash her for whatever and make Joshua look better. It's so infuriating.

The way FC works is that each chapter will be Estelle and Joshua+two other characters and it rotates like that until the final dungeon. This is beneficial because it ensures characters get equal screentime and, in the event you don't like someone, you can look forward to them swapping out the next chapter.

I see a flaw in that system: I can't swap out Joshua and I can't keep Schera. ...Big flaw. Very big flaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
