They're sending out the invites for the playtest for Gundam Evolution now(it doesn't start until the 8th but you can preload it now), if you made it in it will automatically be added to your Steam library Since I lucked out into making it in I'll be sure to post my thoughts on it once it starts(assuming they don't make us sign an NDA or something)

Stairmaster posted:how about they give me an invitation to a pc version of gbo2 I would love this just because even if it was a 100% perfect port the game would crumble at the seams because it's literally designed around aiming being difficult. The few times they've allowed weapons to have decent auto-aim they've been monstrously overpowered, so I'm pretty sure mouse aiming would just shatter the game in two.

Particularly when the game's balance is already pretty bad with how "Stun into Melee" is the game's god strategy, which is incredibly frustrating as it's both incredibly boring to play(as GBO2's melee mechanics are awkward and clunky at best) and incredibly obnoxious to play against(particularly when it tends to give a huge advantage to any player who is actually in Japan due to how the game handles hosting) Its a shame really cause when you get a rare good match GBO2 is really fun but for every good match you get you end up with 20 absolutely terrible matches that just completely kill you on the inside

Trying to play GBO2 after getting proficient in MBON was one of the most miserable experiences and every second felt like absolute garbage

Yeah GBO2 is built on aiming being hard but poo poo I loved getting into a sniping position in a hildolfr

I love GBO2 to death and played it an enormous shitload, but the fact that it's a team game that is incredibly dependent on teamwork to function but is actively opposed to letting you play with a group of friends finally killed the experience for me entirely.

On the topic of games, the SNES F91 prequel had a tie-in manga, and it may just set a record for girlfriend murder in Gundam, a very competitive field. Page 8 has her first appearance. Page 11 confirms she's the protagonist's love interest. It also kills her off. In the narration. I get that it's an abridged retelling of the game, but it's still kind of amazing. Like a physical manifestation of every complaint Gundam has gotten on this front.

Rhythm emotion. Also has the best 16 bit version in endless duel. White reflection second, just communication third, last impression forth.

Part of the plot involves salvaging the cannon where they talk nonstop about how brave and honorable he was and how they'll make sure to use his cannon properly and then invent a new type of Dom to mount the cannon that isn't a pile of poo poo and then have a small bow-and-pray session where they promise to honor him.

The one good Federation soldier is a woman who lost her entire family in the colony drop and her story revolves around her discovering blaming Zeon for that is wrong and learning not to hate Zeon. (The pilot is also the one who got the Gundam Pixy after Bork Cry too.)

ImpAtom posted:I hate to tell you but... That's basically an Astray design. I actually quite like the idea of the Riders, conceptually, as another series of high value prototypes that aren't Gundams, but have some visual identity of their own, and I don't even mind that part of that identity is early psycommu systems overwhelming the pilots, because that could he interesting on its own; they're all rather silly and ugly designs that are fairly overwrought though, sadly. ImpAtom posted:The one good Federation soldier is a woman who lost her entire family in the colony drop and her story revolves around her discovering blaming Zeon for that is wrong and learning not to hate Zeon. I'm almost afraid to ask how/why it's wrong, despite Zeon being the ones who dropped the colony? Or is it more about letting go of hate that is twisting her up inside, because that at least is more understandable. It's more something I'd expect from a vet several years removed from conflict, but still at least understandable.

they should just make the Two Year War in like uc 0101 so people can make their technologically indulgent weird late uc ideas without having to strap them on to early UC designs

It's more something I'd expect from a vet several years removed from conflict, but still at least understandable. It's the latter, the Zeon Newtype protagonist basically shoots friendship at her until she changes her mind. I don't inherently dislike the idea of "a pilot learns not to destroy herself getting revenge" but I feel like it needs something more than "Well okay, I *guess* not all Zeon are bad people despite literally slaughtering my entire squad multiple times."

You don't see it turning up in a lot of opera plots. "Ludwig, maddened by the poisoning of his entire family, wreaks vengeance on Gunther in the third act by living well. Whereupon Woton, upon discovering his deception, wreaks vengeance on Gunther in the third act again by living even better than the Duke."

It should, I wanna watch something that's enturely about two people trying to out-hapoy each other and constantly trying to low-keyrub it in each other's face. In my mind it ends with one of them going through an entirely unrelated breakup that's then only made exponentially worse by seeing the other person doing great and being unable to find an outlet for their turmoil because that would break the illusion of living better. But that might be a 'me' problem.

I mean depending on your interpretation of being "happier" it might also mean ruining the other person's life so they're miserable and then buying a car to cheer yourself up and therefore be the happy one.
