Imagine holding up on the controls stick for the PS4 ver and being made to move down instead! This is a constant thing and its annoying af. The controls being objectively better on PSP is a shock. Because you'd think they wouldn't fuck up on a controller with more inputs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How else will you unlock the Vivi ending? The ending changes depending on whether or not you complete the (5?) obscure quests and complete the game or complete the game twice and the second time say you want to do the good ending and... that's all.

Interdimensional Observer Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I didn't exactly feel like starting my Xmas games nor continuing XS Ep. III today. I did this instead.😆 My unintentionally long break from AP means I don't mind going into this. And I don't have to complete my second run either, I want to see the roads not taken, Space at the first split, one of the Electromagnetic battles, and ideally, if I play long enough, Little Bharm. Since I'm already familiar with most of the story, I can play this even when tired and not mind it. NG+ means I have 1.8 million funds inherited from the first run, and a slew of ace pilots for what that's worth. While A Protag, Trowa, Domon, the Dragonar-3, and probably Quattro (for more Hit & Evade) will remain constants, I'm pretty open to changing up the rest of my team. Comparing the numbers... Vysaga seems perhaps a tad inferior to the Razangriff. Light Edge is only 100 stronger than the F-Solid Bazooka, though Linear Missile Launcher is 300 weaker than Seismic Slicer. They have the same Mobility and Armor despite Razangriff being a Real and not a Super -albeit a Real designed to look tanky. Vysaga does have After/Doubleimage and the Razan doesn't, not an unappreciated benefit in a game with dodge decay. And the size difference should make the Vysaga slightly more damaging too. Aesthetically, I like the Razangriff, Alteisen's brother from another mother who inherited long-range bombardment genes and none of the balance issues. Playing OGs2, I got the Raven upgrade, so I didn't use it in its grounded form. I'm just a tad saddened by the fact that the Gundam Heavyarms Kai will essentially be a Razangriff 2.5 offensively, and I suppose an Aestivalis with the Heavy frame would be tankier too. Lammy's personality seems colder and more evil than in the OGverse. Evil laughter? Never did that in OG. Her bluntness sounds like more than the merely result of a emotionless android too. Parallels- it was Bullet who got in trouble with Captain Lee over insubordination, it's the Dragonar Trio getting Brightslapped and Shiro getting grilled too. A Portable wins here. Another question on the Dragonar team- why does Dragonar 1 lose the Cavalier 0 armor with no explanation? What, Kaine couldn't get pounded by Meio and have that permanently destroy the armor to show the noob has far he has to go? Feels like it was there for "training wheels" during the first two missions -but the Super route gets no such equivalent unless Great Mazinger was supposed to fulfill that role. 9 hours ago, Armagon said: So TIL that Kung Fu Panda popped the fuck off in China to the point that it had a lot of Chinese people wondering on how the hell America made a movie more authentically Chinese than actual China. Digging a bit deeper, it seems one of the factors at least is that the CCP controls 100% of the Chinese film industry so it's pretty subject to censorship (or at least that was the case when the movies came out, idk if things have changed much since then). I do remember that bit from the Film History class i took, there were a lot prominent Chinese filmmakers that were essentially "exiled" once Mao took over. Things should be no different. The Chinese state has always been suspicious of anything and everything not under its direct control. If anything, I'd expect censorship to have grown a little with the rise of the current chairman, whose commitment to good old red ideology and concentration of power is greater than basically any leader since Mao. On video games, things have relented a little recently after very real fears that the domestic market was doomed to die under severe regulation -though nobody in China who likes video games should sleep easy. The possibility of another iconoclastic Cultural Revolution isn't unimaginable right now. 6 hours ago, Acacia Sgt said: That's what LP's exist for. Skip the gameplay, enjoy the story! I don't think that is quite the same. -At least for me. You can read entire LPs in three days, finishing games that fast is much less likely for certain genres. Not playing the game itself removes you from it and overall, it feels "lighter" to me, you lose some gravitas, some immersion, you don't feel it you would had you played it. -But again, this is just me.

I would assume it's what happened in the Dragonar anime too. But yeah, it does make it a kinda parallel to Great Mazinger in being something you get to use before that first route merge. Though unlike Great, you never get the Cavalier back. 16 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: I don't think that is quite the same. -At least for me.

Yeah, it was a joke. Games are meant to be interactable with, so just watching someone else play, while serviceable to a degree, is just not the same to playing the game yourself. That said, as a fanfic writer, I do find it convenient when I only need to look up things for research/reminders, instead of having to play the game all over to reach those bits. So having an archive ready to look up to is handy in that way. Still, some things are still needed to play the games themselves to find out... *grumbles in Garreg Mach full layout* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
