null Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) Bathhouse scenes? Is that what people are into these days? I mean even Spoiler Sky FC had a bathhouse/hot spring scene But at least it was done pretty tastefully I thought. Most of the time it’s just tacky fanservice though, IMO.

Interdimensional Observer Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I usually loathe hot springs/bathhouse scenes in games, too often they're merely straight male perversion, not interesting, rather annoying to me. If you drop the "ooh I can't wait to spy on the nekkid girls talking about bust sizes!" stuff. And leave out any "humor" related to wacky stuff happening while nude and being embarrassed about it. I would be fine with bath scenes, a soak and a conversation by itself is perfectly acceptable. That said, having artwork of women and men!- provided they're not underage- in skimpy towels or less isn't bad! Why? Taken ...from a spa scene.😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major spoilers for Berseria ofc @DragonFlames as i remember her also didn't view this Fascinating stuff right here. Made me like Velvet even more, tbh. Thanks for the notification! --- Speaking of stuff I like, I continued my run through Nights of Azure and beat the next boss. A giant living merry-go-round horse. This boss has one peculiar trick to it: if you empty its health bar once, it'll go down and drop a treasure chest just like every other boss, however, if you approach the treasure chest, the thing will revive with 25% of its maximum HP remaining and use a final attack that can kill you if you're not careful. Luckily, dodging it is pretty easy, but I remember being thrown for a loop in my first playthrough. By the way, you HAVE to "fall for it" in order to progress. It's part of the boss fight. But it can catch you off guard. It is for this reason that the Blue Blood Cavalry Caroussel is one of my personal favorite bosses in this game. And after the battle was done and over with, the two comic relief characters appeared: the demon researcher Professor Alucard, and the thief pretending to be a merchant (or merchant having the air of a thief around him) Lloyd. Literally the first thing Alucard does upon meeting Arnice is ask to let him "research her body", which leads to Lloyd labeling him as "Professor Pervert", which then sparks a heated discussion between them... to which Arnice's reaction is to simply walk off and leave them behind. XD On my way to the boss, I also met my second favorite character in this game for the first time this playthrough: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

null Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) Yeah, that's a really nice pic of Christophorus! Although she looks too cute to be a pureblooded demon. ------- I love that theme that plays in certain scenes, "A Cat Relaxing in the Sun." So chill. This is the Evo version, but it's very similar and just as pleasant. Edited August 11, 2020 by twilitfalchion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightcosmo Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 2 hours ago, Armagon said: Sorta. I think having Morag be an absolute dodge tank with Corvin is the main strategy and having Shulk for the first few seconds of the fight so i can Vision QTE is useful. The restrictions is just Custom difficulty where everything that would benefit me is turned to it's lowest setting and everything that would benefit the enemy is turned to it's highest. With Shulks visions the best attack to block against is the one where it hits about 15 times or so, if i remember correctly. Cant remember the arts name, though. Well assuming your focusing accessories on agility of course, what else do you have equipped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonFlames Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Just now, Shrimperor said: scary amusement parks! Always a good place for some horror Indeed! This amusement park in particular has enemies that self-destruct when you defeat them (sound familiar, no? XD). And then bigger versions of those that explode just from you approaching them. And then there's the spike traps in the floor, and... well... What the hell kind of amusement park has literal pillars of fire coming out of the ground?

Luckily, you have a dodge roll that makes you invincible for the duration, so corridors filled with the things you can just dodge roll through and avoid the explosions entirely. Your Servans, however... aren't as lucky, but their AI is generally smart enough to evade the explosions, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Morag and Tora have accessories that start them off with major aggro. Morag also has a crit-heal accessory. Everyone has pouch items that increase Art and Special recharge rates and Nia has a pouch item that increases Party Gauge rate. But even with that, thanks to the parameters i set in Custom, recharge Artes for Party Gauge and Specials is still pretty slow. Even the Lv.4 Specials. which automatically charge up, take a while to reach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I always liked Ruan in Sky FC, and it's still one of my favorite towns in Trails. The music kind of reminds me of Mario Sunshine with the steel drums. He may be a flirt, but Kevin seems to be a very likable character. I like how even though Trails has characters with trope-ish personalities, none of them (so far anyway, Sky FC included) have been overplayed. Each character has a good bit of depth beyond one single characteristic. ------- One thing I forgot to mention earlier...can I just say how great the opening to Sky SC is? Because it is. The song is catchy and the animation is so nice. I liked FC's a lot, but this one is made even better by how good the song is. Maybe I appreciate things like that in games a bit too much, but hey, I like good music. What can I say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
