Excellent subtle purely coincidental timing for when he shows up again J. And thank you for the clarification and further information!😃 Admittedly, I don't recall. Still, I'd think Gosterro wasn't piloting the Devil Gundam for that intention anyway. And we know men can be the core, WITH THE HELP OF KYOJI. 5 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Huh. A man curiously consistently cross. Cross-piloting is the truest breaking of boundaries, to plant the flesh of one license in the steel of another, potentially an act of sacrilege depending on the audience. While the Dancouga is fine, I think I would've preferred Shapiro in something Gradosian, and not solely to keep the avant garde trend going. The Desire has an overly simplistic big blue design, the bull aspect in tandem with the color reminds me of one of Saya's lackeys. It also doesn't make much sense since, if I recall, it's the Muge who give him the Desire to pilot. Could be wrong, though. Then again, him piloting something else when the Muge aren't around does imply that. But yeah, a shame we lost that chance for some more cross-piloting. At least it has the twitchy shoulder to stand out, hahaha. 5 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Wait a sec... isn't the Dancouga in SRW30's Expansion Pack that I didn't buy also something that never got used? I coulda sworn you said at the time it was history curiously happening twice. -And this explains why the Final upgrade was so underwhelming, but one additional subpilot and a small weapons & stats boost. It wasn't purely as I thought in the moment it happened the result of Dancouga ranking second-to-last narrative in representation in J (Combattler V being the one below it). Yep. Yeah, for SRW 30 Dancougar was given a brand new design. Which combined with Final Dancougar, makes it the second time SRW has given the mech a SRW-only (technically for Final Dancougar) design. Hence... Yep. XD lol And yeah, Dancougar seems to be in J for roster padding, but it at least got something from its own plot to still show up. 5 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Again, I appreciate you going all Ms. Fressange here!😄 She is probably my own Nadesico spirit animal, giving explanations is fun! Hehe, no problem! This was another The How and Why... of SRW! Edited April 16, 2023 by Acacia Sgt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acacia Sgt Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 So, TIL that here in Latin America we dubbed The Prince of Darkness first, and the Nadesico TV Series a few years later. Apparently a reasonable deal couldn't be made at the time for the TV series, so when one could finally be made, it was through another studio, so the dub cast is completely different between both works.

Acacia Sgt Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 (edited) Hmm, okay, I think I have 200% the Aqueduct of Dragons... now for the Sky Walkway B. And Legion (Saint) defeated! That boss always gives me the creeps... Now for the Chapel of Dissonance B. And the Shadow defeated. Seems I can't go any further here, so time to return to Castle A...

Saint Rubenio Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 4 hours ago, Armagon said: Oh yeah, for like old games it makes sense. I'm talking about whenever a new game comes out and people are like "hehe, I'm gonna play this on my Steam Deck, fuck Nintendo". There was that whole thing with Kotaku where like a week after Dread came out (first mainline Metroid game in like a decade), they were like "here's how to play the game on Yuzu". Ah, I see what you're talking about. Yeah, I do feel it's stinky in that event. Sales is how games succeed, sequels are made and developers are laid off. Even if you feel you'll get a better experience in the Nintendo PC, it's still kinder to buy it and support the creators, then get the game you own on the Nintendo PC and play it your way, like I'm doing now with Engage. ...Not that I have that much sympathy for multimillionaire corporations, mind. Nintendo isn't going to go bankrupt because they get 60 less bucks. It kinda stinks, I wouldn't feel good doing it, but I'm not about to string someone up for pirating games from big corps. Pirating indies, on the other hand? Only a complete barbarian would do that. Still, there's clearly nothing that can be done about it. I mean, people were playing Engage before Engage came out. And I don't just mean leakers, the Nintendo PC version was already up before the official release lol, the gaming industry has perfected the art of thievery to the point where it is viewed as a perfectly normal way to engage with it.

Acacia Sgt Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 (edited) Okay, finally got the means to open the magically sealed doors. Now I'm at the Castle Top Floor A, time to fight Pazuzu! Hm? This would be the usual area to fight Dracula, but Pazuzu is here instead. Guess this is another thing being copied from SotN. Oh yeah, the Sky Walkway has been 200%. Map-wise, so has the Chapel of Dissonance, but there's an item I'm still missing from the B version. Well then, now to venture down the Castle Treasury A. Wait, the Minotaur again!?

Acacia Sgt Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 I'm glad the furniture shows up and gets placed regardless of which version of the castle is it, but it's still amusing how that works. Okay, time for the Skeleton Cave A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 I just realized how asinine the idea of making Timerra a wolf knight is, when she joins alongside Merrin, who is already a wolf knight. I mean, I'm still gonna do it. This entire run is built on terrible decisions. But still, you forgot didn't you @Sooks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, I'm actually sad and weighing the possibility of redoing the map tomorrow with a clearer head... for Amber and Alfred, Pan's going straight into the bench if I do this lol 7 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Tsk tsk tsk, letting DÃa de Muertos girl die... or was that the itention, Ruben!?
