IIRC they released both variants in Japan, in the US you can only be dad Nier.

Was there ever an English release of the prettyboy version of Nier, like for the "Asia" region or whatever?

dad nier probably would have sold a bit better in japan if they didn't decide it was a good idea to release it exclusively for the xbox 360, a game console nobody in japan cares about, while releasing brother nier exclusively for the ps3, a console people even still care about

It's not a ghost, but probably a 'living corpse'. The 'living dead' with a hell of a lot of bloodlust...
After playing Colorado some more in Hitman, I don't think the level deserves the hate it gets. I like it better than Bangkok. My biggest issue is probably that the main mission forces you to take the same exit every time, so I'm not completing any of the alternate exit challenges :argh:

If it weren't the inventory management and the messages you get from bumping into rocks/pots, I would 100% agree. LA has great dungeon design, a very dense overworld with lots of secrets and unique personality, items that are a lot of fun to use and can do all kinds of fun stuff in and out of combat, and a surprisingly compelling narrative.

No. It's basically the original but with bad ARPG gameplay, puzzles that are less interesting than the original, a much crappier ancient cave, and a handful of plot point changes that exist to do nothing but remove bite from several of the game's scenes (Up to and including Maxim and Selene not dying at the end through total bullshit that sets up a new sequel that never happened.)

Did they make that sequel in the early 00's then not release it until now? Because those are some poo poo rear end animations.

Persona 5 is so good even though I've barely played any battles. All the the systems were designed with style in mind. I'm gonna love this game, I can tell.

I got my copy through Amazon, lol. After being super lovely on shipping pre-ordered stuff for me forever they're now good! I got Mass Effect a day early as well. Amazon is so good for Canadians now it's ridiculous.

On that same podcast everyone was also speculating about late-game things for Breath of the Wild and Peter Brown was like, "I can just tell you if you want." He is so eager to spoil everything

Im in the process of replaying Ys: Memories of Celceta because I remember never actually finishing it and looking at the trophies I have it looks like I got to literally the last fight in the game and just dropping it for whatever reason. I am back in the final dungeon so I wonder what happens that must have made me ragequit back at release.

The late game story and main villain of Celceta are so un-engaging I'm honestly kind of surprised I finished it. I think I probably only did because lol Karna lol Napalm Shot lol Life Steal etc.

I feel like I talk down about that series a lot despite pretty much liking every game in it.


E: I actually don't even remember what the final boss of that game is now that I think about it. I think it's a big thing you fight on a volcano maybe?
