Curses! Foiled again!


I don't know if many people in this thread know or care at all about Mafia games, let alone want to read one they weren't playing in, but I just completed a role madness Mafia game based on Stardust Crusaders that might be of interest to some of you.

Part 6 is really good

this is literally the only time something bizarre happened in JoJo and a character showed the slightest bit of bafflement or confusion.

There's plenty of examples, mostly Speedwagon, Avdol and anyone near Joseph.

Emporio is very cool, he has a Ghost Computer he uses sometimes and he uses his Stand so cool people like Weather Report don't actually have to be in prison and somehow Annasui is there I guess

Weather Report's latent cool was what allowed Emporio to win. It comes along with the Stand disc.

It was really loving cool. Setting yourself on fire to beat your opponent is always super cool, that's why Dragon's Dogma is a good game

I can't think of a jojo villain who did it except like Kars

Literally everyone always tried to go in for the kill while monologuing and in Kira's case he had to follow goofy rear end rules because of his powers

Underworld is alright, albeit a little inherently uninteresting to me. My favorite fights are typically the ones where the bad guy has to pull his own weight rather than just siccing his stand on somebody and standing back while they puzzle it out. That aside, it's a cool-looking stand with a really cool power which leads to some tight situations for Jolyne and friends so I'm good with it. Bohemian Rhapsody though, man, I really can't get into it. Too abstract, too cosmic, too powerful, and I'm still not quite sure how the crew managed to beat it. We got some memorable scenes out of it at least, but I wouldn't call it a good stand or a good fight.

I have no opinion on Sky High.

I like Bohemian Rhapsody because it sort of gets into that spot of me that likes childish stories and genital mutilation threats are always funny to me. Sky High's cool, the fight itself was sort of whatever aside from said Jolyne self-fire lightning, but flying dicks was always p cool to me if only for how abstract and trivia laden that stuff was.

Bohemian Rhapsody had a cool effect, that's about all it needed for me. Underworld i don't remember, but Sky High is one of my favorites because it's total bullshit and Jolyne sets herself on fire to win.

weather report made his own OC, and bohemian rhapsody brought it to life, because weather report at that time was van gogh

maybe you should read the end of stone ocean again because pucci does exactly this, monologuing only while chasing emporio down and forcing him back to his stand room, and then while emporio is hidden in burning down the house, he puts up the disc so that made in heaven's fist punches the disc in instead

Weather Report beat Bohemian Rhapsody by making his own original character and that's really funny to me.

Also Kira "losing" the Sheer Heart Attack fight because he hosed up and mentioned Josuke being a Stand User to his face was always dumb to me.

Pucci walks down the loving hallway for pages on end, he does not go in for the kill especially since his stand lets him be super fast. The only time he attacks him after the initial time is when Emporio trips over himself on the stairs and falls into the wedge in the wall and that's the the attack that fucks him. Like he actual briskly walks through the hallway as Emporio is running for his life and even takes the time to slowly open a gate between him and Emporio, it is nothing like any of the other villains and even then he drops the ball insanely hard.

Underworld is cool because he traps Jolyne and Hermes in a plane crash from 50 years ago and there's some really creative use of Kiss and Stone Free to save them both and also protect two kids Versace drops in as well. And then he summons the Miami Dolphins to attack them.

He'd already lost, that was just the clincher.
