The character seems to be carrying a mascot around in the helmet which makes me think that your gear probably won't change your appearance which I'm hope I'm super wrong because uggggghhhh that design

I thought Nomura was just doing a couple of the bad guy factions designs. One thing I liked about Chronicles X is you could choose the armor you wanted for effect separately from what you were wearing aesthetically, so I didn't have to have characters wearing ridiculous poo poo. It was all khakis or jeans and a shirt with a sensible leather jacket.

Here's an idea: Diablo 3: The Eternal Collection on Switch. However, I have a feeling Blizzard is working on the next Diablo game with cross platform.

Should have played both since both are excellent SRPGs

Guy Goodbody posted:IMO, bad localizations are bad, it's OK for women characters to have visible hip bones, and face petting minigames may not be the hardcore action gameplay we hardcore Western Gamers demand but removing them just to avoid an unflattering Kotaku article is dumb It was removed because Japanese players thought it was annoying and the devteam was already half and half on it.

I don't know what the players in Japan thought, but it was actually the QA-team who were split on the whole face petting system. They reached a compromise by turning the cursor to a generic pointer. Why they removed it for the west, we will probably never know.

Like whatever I understand people like different things and FE has always been one of Nintendo's weirder franchise re; relationships but I'm still baffled that they decided to include a minigame that involved just rubbing a person's face until hearts appear Like if it were literal foot fetish poo poo or just good old implied dtf I'd be less weirded out

The face touching stuff was loving weird and stupid and I only wish they had been a little cleaner in excising it. Just have some normal dialogue boxes or something instead of the close up on the face and one of like two total voice lines, making it glaringly obvious that there was something else there that got unceremoniously ripped out. FE has undeniably developed something of a strange vibe as of late for sure with some of the pandering and they need to knock it off.

"Geneaology of the Holy War" is a particularly good example of that.

There's this idea that stuff gets removed to appease some internet clique of "SJWs". The reality is, stuff gets removed or changed because: -It may bump up the ESRB/PEGI/whatever rating, which affects sales potential -It may alienate a demographic that the company wants to market the game to -It could lead to severely negative press if the content is objectionable enough (imo XCX very well could have blown up in their faces if left unchanged) -It may affect the IP's reputation in the long-term (ie, a series becoming known primarily for cheesecake could give it niche appeal but hurt it in the broader market) It's always a matter of business and branding, not the shadowy influence of culture-war infiltrators within the company.

Alright Nintendo, you don't want to give us info about Stardew Valley that's fine, whatever. Where's my goddamn Octopath Traveler info? SweetBro posted:To be fair that "stylized" character looks like a creepy uncanny valley mannequin so I'm not sure objectively is the word you wanna use there. Don't worry she actually is a creepy uncanny valley mannequin because everyone is in stasis and mind controlling robot versions of themselves. Also despite being highly advanced enough to do something like this, they aren't advanced enough to trace signals from their robot bodies back to their actual bodies in a timely fashion, when that's something modern humans can do pretty goddamn easily even without using law enforcement technology like Stingrays. XCX gets points for trying to do a lot of neat stuff (Skell combat could be cool if it wasn't so hilariously imbalanced and if combat didn't have layer upon layer of bullshit) but holy poo poo their story is bad even by anime-as-hell jRPG standards. It doesn't help that the faces for characters in the game are just unbelievably bad.  Golden Goat posted:Is it another Tatsu? Cause I really don't want another Tatsu. I could forgive a lot if XC2 involves a cameo of Riki and Tatsu and Riki is just shaming Tatsu endlessly for being such an awful character.

I hesitate to call them SJWs because why let them hijack a good thing when they're just outrage bloggers, but lol if you don't think there's a very strange brand of very selectively prudish bullshit in the games press. Game creators changing poo poo because they're afraid Kotaku or Polygon or Vice or any of the other lovely blogs masquerading as actual games media might cry about it is a thing, and what's more, these sites actually pat themselves on the back for this poo poo. Point being, if Nintendo stripped the religious iconography from Castlevania today, half the loving mooks in the game blogs would be writing about how it's actually cool and good because it makes the game more inclusive to atheists and people who might be triggered by Christian symbols.
