Idk Nier just isn't that interesting. The combat is very very boring and poo poo and the story doesn't make up for it to the point where it'd be interesting to watch.

There's an lp of it running on these forums right now and he's been doing just guards with counters and charged attacks and using all the different magics and surprisingly it looks a lot better.

Nier's combat would be fine if the game was 15 hours shorter than it is.

It's kinda absurd how little of the mechanics Pat is using.
"If he doesn't need to use them it's probably bad" is what someone would probably reply but...eh... showmanship and all.

Catherine is truly a Shin Megami Tensei game, in that the Neutral ending is the only good one

Marrying K is the only way that story arc makes any sense, funny though space tourism and the Catherine endings are.

At the time, it had seemed to me that they hadn't used that clip in a while and that maybe some people had thought that imagery was a little too extreme and complained, but I was obviously wrong.

Somehow watching Eyes of Heaven never seems to give me the real feeling of the game feeling like a Jojo film (something South Park paid off), so instead the match-ups, team-ups and interactions seem forced and minimal: "Oh hey new guy where am I do I know you? Oh hey this and that happened and this is what this does and-" WHY IS THIS ACTING SO loving WOODEN!? :psyduck:

I mean the loose threads are not my only problem with that finale but yes, it should just be 8 episodes and tie itself up. Endings aren't bad things.

A second season is fine if they intend to make it anthology style I guess.

Ur dead mom who got killed in a nuclear power plant explosion is reincarnated as the game's Main legendary and you catch her as part of the plot.

There's a pokemon a 'boss' trainer uses That is faster than Deoxys Speed with attack rivaling Deoxys Attack and he's near the end of a 7 in a row gauntlet battle that you have to do all over if you can't beat the thing that can easily 1 shot basically every pokemon ever made.

And they stole the Shadow Type gimmick from Colosseum/XD but made it x2 Effective against everything and x2 weak to everything but that doesn't matter if the thing is fast enough it will just poo poo on everything.

What zen master said but also the game just Doesn't loving Work, Mate on a mechanical level. it's random "cool" ideas with no thought of how they interact.

like here's a friend's description of the very first battle

quote:

your rival gets stuck with the starter that has a type disadvantage to you and the first rival battle is I guess supposed to effectively be a tutorial on type advantages/disadvantages because the game's professor will whine at you for not taking advantage of type stuff if you lose to your rival.

The grass starter only has scratch and growl as its starting moves (fire and grass starters start with ember/watergun along with a physical move), so it's actually not able to do any of that and the water starter will end up beating it anyway in the first fight because growl does nothing to weaken water gun and the water starter's ability (because it's ~~water/electric~~) causes a pokemon that drops it below half health to be paralyzed.
