There is no problem that cannot be solved through sufficient application of lasers and friendship.

I never quite understood why FF9 didn't seem as popular in the States compared to other FF titles. Even the World of Final Fantasy, that was suppose to be a giant homage to all FF, just casually glances over FF9 and only includes a side character and not the main character at all.

Watame has mentioned that FF9 is one of her favorites so I'm expecting her to take her time and savor the playthrough; 5-6 hours of playthrough followed by 4 hours of superchatting.

I got burnt hard by FF8 not being as revolutionary as FF7 was and gave up on the series until my friends started talking up FFX.

Reminds me that Nui finally continued FF8 again yesterday, it's been almost a month since the last stream so for a while there I thought finishing it had turned out to be too great a task even for the big RPG witch herself.

I wonder if she has any plans on touching the Pixel Remaster stuff since she's done 9, 10 and 15 as well.

K-suwabe also made a cool FF8 title mock-up with her likeness.

Unfortunately my surface-level knowledge of Hololive doesn't extend to dental details, but that's also a fine fang indeed.

E: To add something of maybe a little more substance to this post, here's a clip from the very good Eden Gumi gang beasts collab from earlier showing off the professor being a stone cold killer. A lot of great moments in that collab, but understandably subbing 5 people shouting at each other is kind of a nightmare.

FF7 is when FF got really popular in the states, FF8 is more of the same (similar techno-fantasy setting and art style). FF9 is a throwback to the older games, which weren't as popular and the art style was not welcome at all.

Personally I think it had the worst FF story and antagonist at the time, and I've fought giant evil tree final bosses that came out of nowhere.

Tae posted:

It was a ps1 game released almost right before the ps2

FF7 was only 3 years before

FFX, which was top-line in graphics of its release, was only a year later

I didn't get a chance to play FF7 until the PC release and at that point I went through 7 and 8 consecutively and was RPG'd out by the end of it. I think I tried to find a PC release for 9 at the time but couldn't find it.


Edit: Korone had a drinking and chatting stream late in the evening. Have some drunk doggo being cute.

FF9 was definitely my childhood favorite, the game is dripping in charm. I didn't get a PS2 until much later and never picked up FFX despite the hype.

Nice. Space Luna just finished SOMA like a month ago and it's not horror so much as just a big goofy thought experiment. It makes for some really good post-game discussion with your streamchat, too, though I bet having 5,000 people in chat ruins that.

Yeah, out of all Hololive EN members, Ina is probably the best fit for Soma and for actually having a discussion about themes of the games. Ironically, she is in the first section and is actually REALLY scared by the game so far. :v:

It sold amazingly well at launch though, it's just the fan culture in the US had more people deifying the angry anime sword boys and over time way more people bought some version of 7/8.

IX is a loving treat, like the goal was to take the design ethos of the SNES era and make a massive 3D rpg. It does have absolute naked contempt for the player's time though.

She also successfully called the ending about an hour before it happened, and was left feeling VERY conflicted. It was a nice human moment.

Soma has absolutely great atmosphere and really conveys the "trapped at the bottom of the sea" feel. Gura's playthrough was great and Ina's providing a different viewpoint as well.

She's live now to show off more videos and images while Bandai Namco is in chat. She's doing a good job selling me on the game. I'm interested in it and I haven't played a Tales game since Vesperia.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
The Pokemon MOBA is so pay to win that streamers are dropping hundreds of dollars just to solo pub stomp for content, and it probably doesn't hurt that most players are just kids.

Critikal showcased a 50-3 kill game where he was 49 kills and the other team's 3 kills happened in the first minute or two.
