Saint Rubenio Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Why does Haikata want 15 wheat specifically in exchange for fighting with us? What is he even going to do with all that wheat? Well, at any rate, it doesn't seem like he's going to join any time soon. Not that it surprises me. Azura decided to sing to him to persuade him. The last time she tried singing at someone, she got smacked all over the place. In any case, the game properly explained why Azura was in the fort after the battle, so that makes me happy. Also, a mystery! Apparently she's not really a sister of Elise! I wonder what the riveting explanation for that will be. That was a pretty good map too! Haikata was an annoying fight, and I had to use a freeze to save Nyx after she had her defense lowered, but other than that, it went rather well, if I do say so myself!

I would consider a DW Empires, since it sounds like it'd be a good bridge between Musou and RotTK. But I don't have realistic access to any Musou Empires game at all. (And I still wish we had gotten a FEW one, albeit a FEWE with a much more diverse cast than we got in the actual FEW I want to unify the world by force with the laughingstock of Archanea- Gra). 1 hour ago, Armagon said: 100%. Xenoblade's pretty poorly represented in Smash. What did Ultimate add to Xeno representation BTW? I don't have Ultimate. Though we both know it has to be getting something more soon. 1 hour ago, Shrimperor said: Original ofc xD And I'll add that Gaur Plains is a bad stage for reasons other than the big hole in the middle. For one, it isn't set on part of the Bionis's Leg that you can actually explore ingame, the XCX Flight Module don't exist here. And what you can see from the unusual vantage point that the stage has... isn't the best. It's not horrible, but green plains like 1-1 in a New Super Mario Bros game is boring, I'd like them to pick a more fantastical XC locale next time, theres plenty of those to choose from. 1 hour ago, lightcosmo said: Is it strange that I appreciate most of RD's T2 models over the T3's? Like, while I actually like Mia's T3, the fact that she doesnt move absurdly fast like as a Swordmaster is... kinda dumb. If she did, it would be perfect. Well, that and the victory pose not getting cut off at the end. Are 3rd tier classes too fancy/flashy for you? Because if so, I can sympathize via Hyrule Warriors.: The 1st tier weapons are basic, ordinary, accurate to the franchise's roots. The 2nd tier bump up the decoration, but often maintain an element of restrain, perhaps a certain coolness. The 3rd tier adds copious amounts of additional ornamentation, but more isn't always better. More can become gaudy, and impractical to the point that it breaks the illusion of being viable as a realistic weapon -if you abide by a notion of realism in some weapons in franchise known for being over the top. I really dislike Zant's Scimitars of Twilight. The result is that in some instances, I prefer the 2nd tier design over the 3rd. But not all of them, I like the Power Gloves and their Chain Chomp. And I still used the strongest most slotted and properly skilled 3rd tiers anyhow.

That took... way, way longer than it should've, but I managed to capture Haitaka. Amazing. I hope it was fuckin' worth it. Yeah that's what I was trying to do, but Niles had 2 might and 66% hit with the bronze bow. It took some effort, but eventually I managed it. I mean, he’s a better character than the rest of the cast... Are you going to do chapter 10 today too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if either of these work on the emulator but my castle battles forward time after winning them, giving you another chance to use persuasion, and every six irl hours time will also forward.

Ah, I was thinking about asking if real time affected these things. This will definitely help. The emulator has a few different settings for the clock... Perhaps I should see if I can do some time traveling to recruit this idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think that 0 is hard better than 1, but both were unlike any game I've ever seen. That said...0's ending with Majima made me cry, but this one didn't. Really close, but not quite.

Well besides that for the Greil Mercs, the 2nd tier models look just like them, making them feel personal, I think they are generally much better put together. With the exception of Mia, of course, as I like both of hers and would simply prefer if she moved at high speed like as a Swordmaster. Oh and of course... Mist's tier 3... that's just too much. But yeah, your right too much can sometimes be an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
