Given the way Kalos was cheated, given no third game, no extra game pair, or even DLC, they do kinda deserve something.

Kalos is a bit of a tragedy, as it had so much going for it, with less issues than the original Diamond and Pearl had, but never got that extra version(s) to polish it up into something as memorable as Platinum.

At least Gen 6 has some cool Renegade Platinum-style romhacks

I can't believe i'm seeing At World's End slander for the first time.

The movie's all over the place. The pacing is awkward, they introduce a million characters and then they doesn't matter anymore, and they killed the Kraken offscreen.😡

The only positive I can find is some funny scenes and the final battle.

You know, I had forgotten to ask you what would be your next SRW play... well, I got the answer anyway. XD

I'll consider this a kind of continuation, rather than a new run.😆

I just want to see the roads not taken, that's all.

There are only so many fully-translated SRWs, and the Classicverse might too antiquated. So ATM I'm thinking J > GC > W, IDK where AG falls into this. Admittedly I would like to put W earlier, to see GGG's pre-vs. Betterman story out of curiosity. Yet as OG hasn't tackled W yet while Moon Dwellers -which I'm not likely to play with it being stuck where it is- handled J and GC, I'll delay W and instead get the gist of J and GC storylines while waiting for 3rd OG.

That said, as a fanfic writer, I do find it convenient when I only need to look up things for research/reminders, instead of having to play the game all over to reach those bits. So having an archive ready to look up to is handy in that way.

I get that. Particularly if you're referencing something you haven't played in forever, our memories aren't perfect.

Not a bad choice. It's what I plan to do with VTX. Also to fill up their Libraries. V and T require three playthroughs for that, heh. X only two, thankfully.

GC has a fan translation? Didn't knew that. Neat.

Not a bad idea, specially since with W having a few repeats of J, it'd also feel like a bit redundant to do W so close to J... then again, that's how it was for handheld SRW, and W had the premise of going beyond what J covered for its couple of repeat entries.

Still, I do wonder if W would make it to 3rd OG.

One area where Tear of Vermillion's remake really improves over Prophecy of the moonlight Witch's is the music remixes.

Prophecy's battle music was really unfitting, and wasn't even a remake of the original, but Vermillion's been doing at least a passable job for all of them.

The initial themes:

Spoiler

I'm more partial to the original, but the remix is a massive improvement over Prohpecy's.

The boss themes:

Spoiler

My feelings here are similar, though I think it's a bit closer between these versions.

And the "part 2" battle theme:

Spoiler

I  think I kind of like the PSP version more in context here. :v

 

[Acacia Sgt]

In fact, I would say W's roster is quite deliberate meant to mimic J's, with an almost matching set of replacements.

You have the repeat series that get expanded upon:

Gundam SEED (W adding SEED ASTRAY)
Mazinkaiser (While J used Vs. The Great General of Darkness, it was quite paltry/rushed through; W gives it a more proper appearance from what I recall)
Full Metal Panic (W adding The Second Raid)
Tekkaman Blade (W adding Tekkaman Blade II)
Nadesico (W adding The Prince of Darkness)

Then for the matching pairs...

An additional Gundam series separate from SEED: G Gundam (J) and Gundam Wing Endless Waltz (W)
A Super Robot that is mostly there as a token appearance with minimal elements and plot tie-ins: Dancougar (J) and Getter Robo (W)
A combining Super Robot with the "standard" Five-Member Sentai Team: Voltes & Combattler (J) and GoLion (W)
A Super Robot... okay, I'll admit this may be the weakest link, but it's really the only pair left: Zeorymer (J) and GaoGaiGar (W)

Admittedly, I can't tell just what possible links could exist between Layzner and/or Brain Powerd (J) with Detonator Orgun (W). They might be the odd ones out. Still, that's still like an almost full match between J and W's rosters.

According to Akurasu, yup!

It'll be a little weird playing that. I watched a veeeeeeeeeery long compilation of Fin Funnel animations once, Amuro wants to shove a bazooka up whoever drew his face. Not to mention SRW's choice to go 2D for almost all of its history has allowed it to age well visually and produce some stellar animations. GC's models and animations -from what little I glimpsed- don't have quite the same enduring flair, the patina shows. (I would still love to see a Neo translation though, just b/c it's a little different.)

The next chronological non-port is W. Though we are at the end of the Alphaverse storyline, with DC+Zovorg & Masoukishin already done so the Classicverse is finished, those two have comprised the long-running storylines in OG. Ryusei b/c Banpreios, the four Alpha 3 leads, another showdown with Dark Brain I've read comments suggesting... can enough 100% OGverse material be invented to fill in 62/92 chapters (2nd OG length with the true ending/total battles factoring in route splits)? Bring back the Shura, bring in all the original EF heroes, a chunk of the Masoukishin crew, Mekibos and the three Guests, Ring too! Indulge me to no end! Heck, gimme Ms. Rapiecage and Mr. Thrudgelmir, I don't care how inconceivable it'd be!

*Ahem* I could see W being saved for a OGverse 2.0, a reset that would use the Z hexalogy as the primary thread. One oddity of W is the Valstork, the Steel Dragons already consist of three battleships, it doesn't need another. Leaving out the 'stork would -assuming Neo doesn't show up in the first entry- reduce the need to invent purely OGverse battleships to 1 in the reset.

Oh yeah, it's gonna be a bit peculiar the fully 3D thing, heh. You mean Amuro's portrait in GC itself? Perhaps you're just used to his late 20's CCA self, heh. Since GC is one of the few to use the One Year War in its story and thus teenage Amuro... actually, it might be the only one. Since both Classicverse and Alpha 1 had facsimiles of the thing. Though early Classicverse still had Amuro as his teenage self. But by late Classicverse, and in Alpha 1, he's already Zeta Gundam era Amuro.

I wouldn't be surprised if they could. Like, roster wise is one thing, but about story wise? Since yeah, it's really only Alpha 3 left of the current storylines, from what I recall. So they could add one or two more from the single entry SRW's. Since indeed, that's basically what OGverse has been doing. OG2 went through the entirety of A, OGG with R, 2nd OG with D, Moon Dwellers with J. So 3rd OG would include W then. Plus an additional one too. As OG2 did with Compact 2 / Impact, OGG with Compact 3 (even if technically it debuted in 2.5), 2nd OG with... I don't think it had a second standalone entry here, and Moon Dwellers with GC. So yeah, they could put... maybe K or L if they wish too.

Though yeah, the thing with W is having to add the battleship. Still, it wouldn't be too odd. SRW games can have plenty of battleships, so one more wouldn't be that weird.

Ultimately, yeah, if they make a second OG continuity, that'd be where they could put the Zverse (though I wonder then how that relates to what 30 revealed of the Zverse), the remaining portables (K, L, UX, BX), and perhaps even VTX.

To be completely honest, I don't understand this argument. You say female characters have "millions more possibilities", but... Like, why? What is the reason? What sets them apart, exactly? Guys aren't required by law to all dress the same, you can get as wild with them as the girls if you like. It just takes imagination. And of course, facial hair is another factor one can get creative with, which girls lack.

The limit here aren't the gonads, it's the artist's imagination. I find it rather odd to just dismiss all male characters based on some vague, arbitrary limitation you claim they possess. You sure it's not just the media you consume that doesn't try with the guys?

I mean, how many anime girls have the same pink ponytails and the same young, spotless face? It goes both ways, if you ask me. Once again, gender is irrelevant, it's the artist's imagination and willingness to use it that makes a difference.

Gaming standards basically control what the male chars look like (usually a shirt and pants of some kind) but female chars have dresses, skirts, etc to make them stand out. (And all of their variants) Seeing different colored pants isnt exactly appealing. Xd

Male hairstyles are usually somewhat plain, where girls usually have differing hair styles.

Males usually look "functional" in games whereas females look "fashionable" imo.

Sure you can argue its possible the other way around, but most artists can just be more creative with female chars i think.

What a character wears adds to their design, though.  Like, if a char is supposed to be more "cute" then the outfit Nadia wears from Reverie makes alot of sense for example. Saying the outfit doesn't affect appearance is silly imo.

Also when i said char design i meant the outfit as well, not just the face. But if taking that out of context is the only good way to find an argument against it, sure i guess so. lmao

I'd say it depends where you look. I've seen plenty of male characters that look more unique than that. Heck, just in FE you can see plenty of dudes who deviate from this "pants and shirt" norm. In FE it's pretty much only the axe fighters that conform to that look.

I dunno you could be right or wrong, but that's just my opinion, male chars are almost never high up on my lists design wise cause they usually feel "plain" or "stale" to me.
