Armagon Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 My take is that if the script is good it enough, the feeling will transcend the words because "Xenoblade 3 localization discourse" was not on my bingo tonight. Had to leave a comment myself too cause she said that you can't properly experience the game if you didn't play it in Japanese. I played it in English and it's my favorite game of all time so I think unless it's some 4Kids-level of localization, I don't think it truly matters that much in which language you got it in. 3 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Unfortunately, Queen Zenobia was the city's downfall. Her decision to rebel in 270 AD and declare herself Empress of the Palmyrene Empire two years later assured her a place in history, yet it brought an end to her capital's. Rome was still in the midst of the prolonged imperial succession issues known as the Crisis of the Third Century, which perhaps emboldened Zenobia, as did her late husband's military victory over the Sassanian Empire to the east. Yet Rome wasn't dead yet, it crushed Zenobia's revolt, and in the process destroyed Palmyra And then she reincarnated in the Fate verse. 27 minutes ago, GuardianSing said: Rushing to the other end of the map is always my favorite part of any grand strategy game FE4 fans be like "yo the gameplay is fire" The gameplay: Yes I've made this joke already. 1 minute ago, Acacia Sgt said: Look at that, immortalized in a museum.

Well, you know what they say. You can't appreciate Shakespeare unless you read it in the original Klingon. Just now, Armagon said: And then she reincarnated in the Fate verse. Technically, it's the other way around. Rhajat implies she will reincarnate into Tharja. The Before Awakening DLC also stablishes Fates happens first, as Chrom knows of Nohr and Hoshido as ancient legends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright, now the Nautilus can dive underwater... how curious surface sea travel effectively ceases to exist. Enterprise was the only vessel that could sail the ocean surface.

Interdimensional Observer Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 "Atlus and Vanillaware have unveiled a new trailer for their upcoming tactical JRPG Unicorn Overlord, detailing the real-life card game included with the title’s Collector’s Edition. This card game contains 239 cards, with four Might markers, four Choice markers, and one player marker. Playtime is expected to be between 30 and 120 minutes, with a required number of two to four players." *Checks price* ...$130 USD. Why the card game Vanillaware?😐 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: This is a weapon in Rogue Legacy 2. Amazing. 3 hours ago, Lightchao42 said: I know you have Pikmin experience but I don't recall if you played or finished the first game. I know I made it to the third area. I know attempted to fight the Puffstool(?) and perhaps the Beady Long Legs. Whether I won against either is uncertain. Child me was too slow a player and nervous with the time limits. The literal bugginess of Pikmin more than anything is what probably stands in the way now. 3 hours ago, Lightchao42 said: Do the Black Fang and those who slither count as cults if they don't worship anything? Or maybe "cult" is just a shorthand for "mysterious villain organization" in FE terms. "Cult" for FE can mean any of the following, I think.: Fanatical worship of an antagonistic deity or wannabe deity. (Loptyr Cult, Gerxel Cult, Lyon, arguably the Disciples of Order.) Master manipulators of geopolitics. (Loptyr Cult, Nergal, Mole People, Lyon, arguably Sephiran.) A group comprised primarily of evil mages. (Gharnef) And so far, they've all been led by a sorcerer of some kind. 1 hour ago, GuardianSing said: Rushing to the other end of the map is always my favorite part of any grand strategy game One of those arguments for ye olde Stacks of Doom. -Which could work without being stupid, if the stacks had a ceiling on how big they can be. 1 hour ago, GuardianSing said: It is with remarkable coincidence that I find this post right after rewatching this video. Which happens to mention this exact event. Thanks for the vid, as tragic and bleak as it is to hear. 1 hour ago, Acacia Sgt said: Look at that, immortalized in a museum. I know it's faaaaake, but honestly, TCG card art is a treasure. Such sweet nuggets of creativity. I wouldn't mind seeing them in museums. Or a few dozen cards' images printed on poster paper as a nice bit of bedroom wall decor. Or, for wearable fashion, a shirt, ideally long-sleeved, with a great many cards serving as its print design. 58 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Well, you know what they say. You can't appreciate Shakespeare unless you read it in the original Klingon. And can you really appreciate Shakespeare if you don't live in the late 1500s/early 1600s England for the social context? ...I was going to go absurd and end things with "nobody can really understand each other, therefore if any understanding exists, it's because solipsism is real and there is only one person in existence". -But I suddenly lost the vigor for that nonsense. I'd rather discuss how the foundations of Western civilization are so shaky because so few speak the Greek and Latin upon which it was founded. The point being, the best the storyteller can hope for, is that somebody likes their story, even if it's diluted (hopefully not too much) due to the transference to a different language/culture/time. And we the readers/listeners/watchers/players, can at best hope we're understanding something of how the storytellers from wherever and whenever, thought and felt. 7 minutes ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: It always is, it always is If you want an SRPG where the cult exists with importance, but doesn't ruin the story IMO, try Devil Survivor. Don't take this seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the card game Vanillaware?😐 For a second, i thought it meant that the video game itself lasted from 30 minutes to 120 minutes and i was gonna be like "damn this is the shortest SRPG ever". It includes all of this though so i think it's a fair price. Given i've somehow come across special editions of Vanillaware games (Dragon's Crown and GrimGrimiore) i'm kinda tempted to nab this myself.

Even if it's plain by Vanillaware standards, I would looooooove to have that art book. Pleeeease include a free ingame digital copy like with Odin Sphere and basically GG OnceMore.🥺 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
