Acacia Sgt Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Hmm, what to play next (not Switch related). I might do Hikkikomori Route in Omori at last. Or maybe start a SRW 30 playthrough... though that one will certainly take a while to go through, hehehehe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is the question of much to change of the person's design when genderbending. Do you make it a near bare-minimum flip, or do you accentuate to some extent their gendered physical and or fashion differences? I don't think there is a single correct answer, it's up to the artist to decide. It also implicitly mildly makes the artist and the viewers question how aspects of what is gendered are defined. I'd be up for it for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveal hidden contents The Xenosaga... the Xenosaga is real! Apparently there are references to Xenoblade X and Xenogears too, but the Xenosaga references are the ones I immediately recognized. Alpha's final form seems to be inspired by Deus's final form, which is neat. It's nice that Alvis got to be a playable character, even if he is technically a girl (sort of, or not male at least) this time. Getting to see the original pre-experiment world was a surprise, it makes FR really feel like the end of the saga. More Trinity Processor lore is good, and the absence of the other two is explained somewhat. Pneuma is Matthew's weapon... somehow, and it also implies that the Sword of the End has something to do with Logos. The post-credits implies that the two worlds somehow fused back together, how nice (after the base game ending kept them separate for some reason). And is the blue light a reference to Xenosaga Episode III's ending? The KOS-MOS.... the KOS-MOS is real! Spoiler The base game implied the two worlds remerged, FR just outright confirms it. My theory for the blue light without having to get into the Xenosaga stuff (there'd be a lot to retcon) is that it's one of the colony ships returning.

Needless to say I needed to go back into the grass to levelup and burn through PP again, and the next major attempt, starting at level 19, but leveling to 20 on the Geodude It is clear with just a little more luck I can make it past this at this level, so I reset, and after two more failed attempts Not gonna lie, this is roughly how I expected the Brock fight to go, what with non-Yellow Pikachu not really learning any moves to potentially bullshit its way through. Good luck with the run! Electric monotype seems like it could be an exercise in frustration, with only one Pokemon being able to learn Thunderbolt, and everybody else being limited to Thundershock as STAB for almost the entire game. Everybody learns Thunder in their 40s, if not 50s, if at all (Magneton doesn't...). Even Electabuzz doesn't learn Thunderpunch before Lv. 42. --- Happy hoe day, everybody!

Saint Rubenio Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I like how the creator of both color hacks for Super Mario Land 1 and 2 went out of their way to make Luigi a playable character with slightly different physics. There was no need for it, they just did it 'cause. Feels like if Ninty had released those two games on their Super Mario Advance series, they would've done exactly the same thing. I mean, they did, with World. Anyway, Micaiah paralogue. I think I'll do this and then go back to some mainline chapters. Leave Celica and Marth for later. Really wanna kill the two amigos already.

GuardianSing Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Family's been visiting so I haven't had much time for gaming, but I'm back to Xeno some blades! See look! Look! It's it's! ...Nah nevermind, the joke's worn off. This is one of those games where it doesn't feel like it has fall damage but does anyway. Falling into the void is still pretty fun. https://imgur.com/3VADL5yhttps://imgur.com/3VADL5y A great way to measure the quality of a game is figure out how fun the spinny spin is. https://imgur.com/BU5M9ke https://imgur.com/vhXHFai Alright I admit it, post-battle dialogue is adorable sometimes. -- Aaand that's chapter 5 done, surprised that such a long session didn't give me that much to say on it. There are some mystery elements being thrown into the story which I appreciate and I look forward to seeing how it develops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightchao42 Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Cold Steel III Ch. 1 Spoiler As Azure's ending implied, Shirley joined Ouroboros as Enforcer No. XVII, and she stole her dad's nickname too (Sigmund's whereabouts at the moment aren't made clear). I'm sure Randy is real sick of her by now. I do like her voice acting though. My trend of predicting numbers incorrectly continues, since I thought she would be No. XIX (The Sun) instead. I said before that I liked the idea of previous villains joining Ouroboros, but I don't know how many more logical choices there are for such villains besides Shirley. Maybe Crow would make sense, but he's... you know. As of now the missing Enforcer numbers are III, IV, V, VII, XI, XII, XIV, and XVI, provided there are no numbers after Shirley. Anyway Duvalie is stuck as Shirley's babysitter, I wonder if the Anguis dump her on anyone they deem unreliable. Elliot, Laura, and Fie are now cool enough to rescue us from the villains, they grow up so fast... I can kind of understand wearing a towel in a hot spring, but why does Juna wear a towel while she's showering? I'm guessing she's "supposed" to be be naked and it's just for the sake of the rating, but maybe she's just concerned about people walking in on her. 18 hours ago, Armagon said: Reveal hidden contents The base game implied the two worlds remerged, FR just outright confirms it. My theory for the blue light without having to get into the Xenosaga stuff (there'd be a lot to retcon) is that it's one of the colony ships returning. Future Redeemed stuff Spoiler I doubt they'll make the entirety of Xenosaga canon to Xenoblade, maybe just that some version of XS's events happened in the XC universe (or Takahashi is pulling a Nomura and is remaking Xenosaga within Xenoblade). Vector Industries existing in the XC universe in some form might explain why XC2 KOS-MOS has knowledge of how the World Tree was built, if she still has a connection to them in this continuity (Shion and Allen already have Xenoblade equivalents, per XC2's artbook). As for the blue light, maybe Deus won in this universe and succeeded in returning to Lost Jerusalem? It will be the plot of Xenoblade Chronicles 4. I just realized that Shania is most likely descended from Reyn and Sharla, her ability to freeze time as Moebius must be her version of Reyn Time. 40 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: I might resume my Trails FC playthrough... at least it's been only like, a year instead of seven... If you need a refresher on the plot, you should review the Bracer Notebook. It's a good thing Estelle is very thorough when it comes to summarizing the events of her adventure.

Our primitive technology fails to perceive the truth. 29 minutes ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: The Elma battle is such bullshit Since I wanted Elma outside of the LoC ASAP during the maingame, I minmaxed the Custom settings to their easiest. I still struggled. Both non-Morag characters got KO'ed sometime after I applied Seal Reinforcement. I then spent the entire fight spamming Corvin's level 1 special while perilously running away from the Elmas. Still might've taken me a few tries, as getting ganged up and Driver Combo'ed by Elma et bunshins was still deadly. It's good old evidence that boss fights with multiple enemies > boss fights with a single "stronger" foe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
