BrightBow Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) If Gordon Freeman got a Mii costume, I'm not sure I would want it to be Swordfighter or Gunner.

Sure, it's the most iconic crowbar in video game history, but for all practical purposes it is really only used to smash crates. Gravity gun doesn't quite fit the weaponary outside Down Special, but then again it is a costume. The crowbar is not the same as a sword, but I've killed my share of headcrabs with it. Imagine if they just did both (obviously Crowbar Sword/Gravity Gun Gunner), that'd be honestly funny. Though I would find it really surprising he was in at all.

Echoes apparently take more effort than costumes? That's the only reason I'd expect that, no way people wouldn't be interested in more distinct alternate characters.

You really expect Nintendo to make an effort when they are already earning money just fine? Please. It's the same reason they haven't used the buckets of money they're getting from Nintendo Online to... y'know, fix the fucking online. If people are tossing money at you for half measures, why bother going the whole way? 2 minutes ago, Sooks said: So, is that the consequence of sending Eirik away that you were talking about?

I really dont want to agree with this, but the sad part is I know its tru and have to. Maybe that's something they should consider? What downside would adding more alts have? The games programming and whatnot are already shit, might as well break everything else. Xd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Rubenio Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Man, I don't know what to play right now.

Unfortunately... 3 minutes ago, lightcosmo said: Maybe that's something they should consider? What downside would adding more alts have? All pesimism aside, it's a fair point.

Spoiler The "not actually dead" shenanigans are a lot easier to forgive when the game only pulls them once for a side character and it serves to give Ludin more characterization.

Ninty realised this with some characters (Mario, ZSS, Bowser Jr. And so forth) but werent smart enough to continue the trend. And if they can do it for characters like Byleth, Corrin, Robin, where they need to set the voice clips by pallete "slots" which is a ton of work, they can do it easily enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, this sounds great! 6 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: From what I've read, EOIII began this tradition of bosses (5/6 times the Dragons) raising the level cap. For EOI&II original, the level cap was 70, and the way you increased it was by retiring,  at the maximum level being mandatory I think. This increased the level cap by... 1 each time. Therefore, a character needs to retire at their maximum level 29 times to hit 99. If that sounds tedious, it sounds as though level 70 was enough to complete everything. Oh, interesting! So retiring wasn't only good for stat boosts, back then! I honestly... prefer the way they do it now. Defeating strong bosses to unlock higher levels of power feels more rewarding. 6 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: I remember Stormy's U1 incarnation being heavy on the binds, ailments, and buff removal, which was bad when my Classic team relied heavily on the Troubadour. For IV, you're also in for a bad time if you buff up too much (a few will be okay). Oh boy, that does sound like a rough time, for sure. Also, he will now forever be "Stormy" to me. Thanks for that. xD 6 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: When enough damage has been done to it, the Yellow Heart on its forehead will begin to glow. At the end of each turn, the Yellow Heart will cast Resonant Volt, which deals heavy volt damage to the entire party, and will increase in power for each turn the core has remained active. This is often lethal on higher difficulties, especially on Expert, as the core damage escalates very quickly, and by turn 4 or 5, the damage will be enough to wipe out your entire party. Holy hell! It's a good thing Fafnir + Link Order is a very strong attacking combo or else I would have eaten a few of these! 6 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Ah, I've heard of Atlus using this kind of "kill before it gets too strong to survive" mechanic before. The first Devil Survivor applied it to Lucifer's Megidoladyne, which as the "Megido" in its name indicates, is Almighty. *incoherent screeching in fear* 5 hours ago, Armagon said: Honestly, i do think i'd enjoy it more if i hadn't already played other Atelier games.

And this version of it... Is great! It doesn't quite capture what makes the original Lucia-tier to me, but it is a nice evolution for Byakuren, because her life became a lot less miserable from her debut to this game, and this theme nicely reflects that. Why a Buddhist nun has a friggin' motorcycle is anyone's guess, though. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
