If you try to skip the cutscene, I become unrecruitable. That actually makes a LOT of sense. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 4 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: that's so kaga Come to think about it, more than Kaga, it reminds me of the classic adventure game, Gabriel Knight. Being a Sierra game, it had plenty of fun death scenes, but perhaps the most fun of them was the one that happens if you try to speed through one particularly long cutscene, which you do by pressing the space bar. At the end of the scene, Gabriel drives away... But if you're still holding the spacebar, he drives off a cliff and dies. Then a text box appears saying "next time leave the driving to the driver!" Hilarious. 4 minutes ago, lightcosmo said: You wanna run that by one more time? ...No. I don't think I will. 2 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: That actually makes a LOT of sense. xD Of course it does!

Well, the spin-offs are (or were) decent, I suppose, but those weren't made by GameFreak. Sun and Moon are peak Pokémon storytelling, even though it doesn't mean much..

I did play the demo of that one a few years ago, actually, to see if it's worth my time or not. It wasn't. --- Was looking through some memes when YouTube rec'd me this. They (I think it's more than one person?) perfectly captured Byakuren's character. I am... legit speechless. Also... the vocals make this song even MORE of a masterpiece than it already is. :floored Draggy: Edited July 2, 2021 by DragonFlames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone who manipulates two nations into going to war with the other, while at the same time ruling both of them, using that war for some purpose or another, for example to instill fear into his subjects to make ruling them easier, or to distract them from something going on behind the scenes. And it would be the protagonist's task to unearth this and put a stop to it. Something like that!

I guess not all SRWs get the equal treatment. 6 hours ago, Acacia Sgt said: To wit, Hero Chronicles - Project Olympus, Another Century's Episode: R, and ProjectxZone are all non SRW OG games that are basically canon to SRW OGverse, thanks to all the interdimensional shenanigans And he'll, you could make the logic that every game featured in EF and PxZ is canon to the OGverse. Cause the characters never lose their memories. Like, I imagine Arthur in the latest Ghost n Goblins has his memories of the time he kicked ass with Dante Devil May Cry haha. 4 hours ago, Shrimperor said: love her already lol Xiaomu is pretty based. And Project X Zone 2 might be the only game that she's in that you'd enjoy. 4 hours ago, Shrimperor said: Most overrated thing in existence! The alternative is those ugly-ass 3D models.

Sleep with one eye open to tonight Ruben. 2 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Literally, it means "pussy." Though it's more commonly used as a swear. A bit like how "fuck" is used as a swear in English, except instead of the act of sexing itself, we use the instrument of fuckery. And if you're really pissed off: "coño de la madre", which is just motherfucker in Spanish. Although the severity depends I guess. Cause my mom says coño occasionally but she'll never say puta. Like in Latin America at least, puta is like the biggest no-no word. 2 hours ago, DragonFlames said: Can't get more overrated than the franchise that plays like baby's first RPG, looks more soulless than a low effort indie title (or about as soulless as anything EA, Ubisoft, Activision et al. put out, take your pick), puts out nothing but utter mediocrity at best, was outdated from the moment it first saw the light of day (even by 1997 GameBoy standards, the first games looked like shit, tbh) and yet somehow still manages to be the most profitable gaming franchise, only because of its name. Well there's nothing wrong with "baby's first ____" cause some things are just like that. And tbf, Pokemon at the time was a massive deal so even if it technically was outdated (GameBoy moment), it's not fair to disregard it's impact back then. And now but I do agree it's gone to shit lol. We really went from Gen 5's beautifully crafted sprites to Gen 8's......things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

null Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Honestly, Trails bias aside, the sprites Falcom used in the older games are charming as heck. I'd love a FE game that used something similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
