I've been reading peoples thoughts on ARMS on the internet, and have to agree that if they take the recently developed adjustable limbs tech from the Guardian amiibo and incorporate it into ARMS amiibo, i'd probably want to buy them.

Teaser for the upcoming ARMS Direct. Looks like there's going to be a new character reveal.

Is it Bayonetta?

I was wondering the same thing. It could be with the hair magic thing, but I doubt it is.

Or is that the demonic writing the games used on those billboards?

No, that's just some gibberish font conceived for the game. Judging from those film set equipment, hair magic might not be on the list. Unless they're shooting for a shampoo commercial.

Only the second game

E: actually maybe not, I guess Sega owns the IP but Nintendo pumped enough money into the second one for them to own everything else about it.

Platinum owns the Bayonetta IP. Nintendo just holds the publishing rights for the second game.

The cameras, ads, and LA-esque setting all point toward a chic Hollywood starlet, not an angel-hunting gun-witch. Also she's wearing pants, not a latex buttsuit.

Are you using a map?

If not i'd probably put this plan on hold until the season pass stuff drops.

I used a map after gathering like 300+ seeds manually.

Even if gathering them is essentially "not fun", it's not as if I'm actually miserable and suffering. it's a good time killer as I don't have other switch games and it allows me to see things I may have missed.

I'm actually convinced my attempt to 100% BotW is bugged at 899. The last seed I need requires an apple tree that was struck by lightning to regrow one specific fruit for symmetry. It will not regrow this apple, no matter how much other time I spend running around the world, how many blood moons I trigger, etc.

I think I'm almost happier this way.

You don't play Disgaea for the story, as for Co!bat voices switching to Japanese is very bearable not knowing what they are saying makes it better. If you do not enjoy grinding it is not for you.

That's what I thought but early in my play I got two in consecutive nights when I hadn't done anything, and for the last month of gametime I've been cutting a bloody swathe through the world to no avail.

Back in the last direct, they showed the character setup screen for a few seconds, at the very bottom in the background was a small, darkened banner with characters on it. Four of those characters weren't/aren't exactly revealed yet.

Helix was one of them, and taking another look at the footage, it's pretty easy to guess who's likely getting revealed tomorrow.

There used to be a loud as poo poo and jarring MIPHA'S GRACE IS NOW READY when the power recharged, now there isn't. Did I do something to turn off the voices, or did they patch it out because it's obnoxious as hell? It's pretty nice to not have voices yelling at you out of nowhere, but I don't know where they went and it's been bugging me.

I did all 900 in the first week and it wasn't as bad as I was expecting, but the Korok mask is going to make things easier for you. All of the seeds in the castle and one specifically up on the Hebra mountains would have been a whole lot more tolerable with something like that mask was.

At the very least, collecting all the seeds was a whole lot less tedious than max ranking every piece of gear. Amiibo gear upgrade costs are ridiculous.

I actually did all the castle seeds already, Most of the seeds left are in the south/southeast, maybe some sprinkled around the outside of the desert as well.

The map I'm currently uses is pretty detailed about where the seeds are, what kind of puzzle it is, and also shows the areas where the korok leaf is for those seeds. Doesn't show where the flower trails begin though but does give information to the direction of where it is.

:siren: Question for people who own Disgaea 5 from the Japanese eShop

Can you set the audio to Japanese and the text to English in the full version? Because holy gently caress the English voice acting is atrocious.
I know the option is blanked out in the demo, so just want to confirm it works the way I think it does in the full version

Probably not since Bayo's heels are guns.
Also Sega owns the IP.
