Covered in chocolate and firm refusal of any wannabe imperial's power. In truth, Wraith just has proven to be deadly afraid of hereticalarmless cookies. That sounds reminiscent of my own Civ5 experiences on Immortal, to be honest. I either get get swarmed by an aggressive neighbor (I still have PTSD from one game that started great, partitioning the Mongols between myself and Rome, just to have Rome backstab me and invade with approximately 40 Trebuchets) or I play overly careful and there's some Korea or Babylon runaway civ on the other side of the world. I've come to accept that I'm probably just an Emperor scrub (ironic, given my totally serious feud with Wraith, I know). 😐 A dramatization of what I hear whenever Ping speaks: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, of course. The Live a Live thing caught me off guard, too. I suppose it being a remake of a 90s JRPG, the last thing I expected was so heavy a swear as motherfucker. Heck, I expected no swears, if anything. Wild West was a ride with all the profanity going around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were really good and added options in dealing with bosses and on what to use depending on situation Could've fused it with the order system or smth. But facing UMs with heals or reinforcements are a bitch atm lol 22 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: They slipped motherfucker past Nintendo This ain't the early 2000s ninty anymore lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm used to playing Ninty's more milquetoast titles, because most everything else is either not of interest to me or in PC. This is the first I see this kinda stuff on an official Ninty console.

Saint Rubenio Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Oh wait, the title I found on Youtube is wrong too. In the remake's jukebox it's called Heroic Struggle. Yeah, that's a lot closer to Difficult Battle... Wonder what's up with this "dignified battle" thing. Probably a transliteration or something.

Armagon Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Monolith Soft can you patch in an option to turn off the Chain Attack theme during certain story fights cause man, I get that it's a good song but it can get in the way of some more emotional fights. Wir Fligen in Xenoblade X didn't really have this issue cause of the context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically it was an aside, but it was more in reference to their character dynamic than their roles in the plot. But Mio has a diary, so she's probably Voldemort. Since classes don't appear on the class selection screen until you unlock their corresponding characters, it means there might be more than 23 classes as shown in the direct. Hmm...

Well, in Cold Steel 2 anyway. The Arseid bloodline is too powerful. Her design gets even better in the next game, in my opinion. On 7/30/2022 at 7:27 AM, Armagon said: Not really talked about but for a JRPG, Xenoblade 3 plays it's mixed bathhouse scene completely straight. No one has sex on the mind because they've been conditioned to just fight fight fight. Noah, Lanz and Eunie are able to have a perfectly normal conversation while in the nude cause for everyone, there's nothing embarrassing about being seen nude. Even as someone who generally doesn't mind fanservice, this was honestly incredibly refreshing.

Vivi would be a romance option if there was any justice in the world. 15 hours ago, Newtype06 said: Anyway, Act 2 will be the true test of strenght. I will watch your carreer with great interest. Well I haven't really done anything yet, but it seems appealing so far (even if this is the part of the game Sooks complained about for being boring). Spoiler So this is like Chapter 8 of SC in that you revisit all the previous areas, if Chapter 8 was the second third of the game I suppose. Now you have your very own airship and a motorcycle, so at least you don't have to travel everywhere on foot this time (I thought you would get the Arseille to travel anywhere freely at some point, but you didn't). Revisiting the shrines will probably be required at some point, which would be Chapter 7 of SC... That aside, the idea of gathering the scattered Thors students to expand your home base sounds cool. Base building systems are fun. But I am following a guide, so unfortunately I won't be getting Vivi first. Also Toval, Claire, and Sharon all left the party for some reason. The party was admittedly getting pretty big, but I would have liked if they stuck around. Yet another similarity to SC, since Kevin was the only new character for 90% of the game, and even then you didn't get to use him too often.

Well, I dont like leaving a "level 1" class on my file, its kinda annoying. Also, im in the next chapter and this one just from the start feels much more interesting than the last one, so maybe my initial opionion of their acting was just that chapter not being all that great.
