Sooks Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I have a decision to make. I could either submit my essay the way it is with the score how it is now and see what my teacher does/says, or I could revert to an actual essay and take the F. My essay is gonna be lacking in one category or another so I’m leaning towards the former. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Benice said: Huh. And here was me thinking that Thracia was Senior Emblem. Thank you for giving me the idea to count how many "mature" playable characters in each game. Not "old", merely middle-aged or later. "Mature" shall be defined as "does it look like person could have children approaching pubescence or older than that?". Almost anyone barring the children characters could have toddlers, so older than that is necessary for their children. Admittedly, there is room for subjectivity here. Here I go!: Spoiler Archanea: ~17 Gaiden: ~5 (And maybe Cipher's Randal) Genealogy: 3 Not surprising, because Gen 2 is mostly children, and Gen 1 is adults who need to make children, they don't want to look too old. Was unsure about including Shannan, so I didn't. Thracia: ~13 (Some of these I'm quite shaky on.) Binding: ~15 (But I'm quite iffy on Igraine and Astolfo.) Blazing: ~14 Sacred: ~7 (I was considering Seth, but nah, I left off Camus and Perceval and he feels similar to them.) Tellius: ~29 (Sigrun was left out because she looks younger than Tanith, but I could be ageist against short hair. I'm ditching Tanith instead. Ranulf was left out b/c limbo visually too. Janaff is supposed to be older than Ulki, but looks younger too. Sephiran was excluded too.) Awakening: ~5 (I considered Priam, Libra, and California Stoner Vaike, but opted for no.) Fates: ~8 (I considered Benny.) Three Houses: ~10 Raphael, Hubert, Dedue, Hanneman, Seteth, Gilbert, Alois, Catherine, Manuela, Jeritza. TearRing Saga: ~14 (Considered Roger and Zieg.) 19 minutes ago, twilitfalchion said: Uh... That's very odd. Hm... Sounds like an exploit to me. Sooks has found the wavedashing of his scoring system. Nothing says he can't try to master it, even if it isn't what the software developers intended. After all, combos in fighting games were long ago an exploit that became a centerpiece of the genre.

Acacia Sgt Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I'm still mad they pulled the plug on AC Infinity too "early". Even if by design it was never really gonna be "finished". I never managed to unlock the last mission of the campaign. The unfinished campaign... they should really pick up the story again and make a proper game out of it. 1 minute ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Thracia: ~13 (Some of these I'm quite shaky on.) Let's see, barring the ovious ones... Twede is 28, so no? Perne is 25, so another no? Glade is 34 so yes. Ralph is 30 so yeah. Amalda is 24 so no. Misha is 20, so no. Source 6 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: (But I'm quite iffy on Igraine and Astolfo.) Igraine has a young daughter who died some undefined time ago, so probably yes. Astolfo is very quite implied to be the father, so... also yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightBow Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Honestly, not including Roswick on the technicality of not being playable doesn't feel right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armagon Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I'm only on the second episode of Transformers G1 and i feel like i've watched 10. Why is everything so fucking fast? 3 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: (But I'm quite iffy on Igraine and Astolfo.) According to their Supports, those two did marry and have a daughter. But their daughter died sometime before the start of the game and the two drifted apart. Based on that, Igrene and Astolfo definitely count as "mature" based on your definition. Pent and Louise don't tho imo since neither of their children was born during the events of Blazing Blade. 7 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Tellius: ~28 (Sigrun was left out because she looks younger than Tanith, but I could be ageist against short hair. Ranulf was left out b/c limbo visually too. Janaff is supposed to be older than Ulki, but looks younger too. Sephiran was excluded too.) You missed Brom, who admittedly doesn't really look like he's that old but Meg is his daughter who is probably in her mid-teens, give or take. Rhys is definitely too young tho, i wouldn't put him there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acacia Sgt Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) Tellius character ages are in the Tellius Recollection. Check here: https://kantopia.wordpress.com/2016/07/31/fire-emblem-por-tellius-recollection-scantranslation-compilation-post/https://kantopia.wordpress.com/2016/11/28/fire-emblem-rd-tellius-recollection-vol-2-scantranslation-compilation-post/ On that subject, Sigrun is one year older than Tanith. Yeah, the short hair is making you think otherwise. The serious/stern look likely isn't helping either.
