Cialis Railman posted:How the gently caress does Gallia's military even function considering everyone in it is horribly corrupt? The General in the first game wasn't corrupt, he was just an idiot that thought the Militia was a bunch of scrubs and not an additional source of manpower to utilize against a numerically superior foe. Lanseal's Academy Dean was only corrupt on a 'using our best students as guinea pigs for ANIME POWER is pretty dumb, especially since your research got stolen twice.' He was doing it for Gallia. This General however might be the thoroughly corrupt one that's been sort of building up in the series.

The Army Officer's 180 there is pretty typical 'I'm a lowly officer who's only good at being a gopher and sucking up to higher ups/people more able than me so I can ride their coattails. Oh you're now lower station than me? Now I don't have to suck up to you anymore. By the way YOU SUCK HAHAHAHA!' I would disagree that the Nameless are Squad G (the situation certainly is though.) Class G were in their position because they were misfits, while The Namless are capable people in a bad situation that are lucky to have a overseeing officer that's lazy/sloppy as all heck. Thus they emulate him to some degree.

Night10194 posted:Caiaphas Cain, yes. He's simply a competent morale officer and liaison who understands winning is often his only chance to live. The books aren't great, but by Warhams standards they're at least funny. Kurt is indeed a breath of fresh air after Avan at least. There does seem to be a competent/wholistic writing behind the game at least.

Internet Kraken posted:Well yeah but that's because of a stupid myth about them destroying the world once upon a time. Regardless, if it bothered her that much you'd think she would just get a haircut. Hair color is just such a weird thing to make the basis of discrimination. You could say that about all reasons for discrimination really. 'You're different! Therefore I/we don't like you!' It is a silly thing.

Not only a single map but two maps to cross check information? Kurt really is a genius (by anime standards at least.)Night10194 posted:Gusurg seems like a pretty level-headed and cool second in command.

Gloria is certainly building up to be 'the one person who actually killed someone' to get into the Nameless. She's a hardcore granny. I like Amy though I suspect either everyone's right about her dad being a deadbeat dad or she doesn't know/isn't explaining the full situation. Her situation is reminding me quite a bit about Van and Gogh in Chrono Cross. Deit meanwhile needs to elaborate more, though I suspect he'll boil over sometime during this fragment and it will be good. News just in: there are Gallian Army jerks who have not been mellowed out by superior Darcsen Cooking, story at lunchtime.

That's not the lesson he has to learn, he already knows that via his 'it's alright if I'm reckless!' line. He's coming to terms with the fact that he's not the one who decides what to do and that no matter what he does he can't eliminate risk for anyone else... But he can help with it. His real issue is that he's too overbearing in his concern for his comrades. Alas, that's not the issue that VC3 addresses here. (Although I do hope it gets addressed.) Edit: Then again it is mainly about explaining his backstory and showing some form of improvement to Felix to tie into the Potential he gains.

quote:Super Handsome if he Loses weight. Alfons is nicely balanced by being a hyper competent detective with getting whipped by Leila all the time. Plus while this scene is practically a page out of most Detective manga/TV/movie scenes in it's execution Alfons is putting the nails in a Gallian Noble so it's hard not to enjoy him getting his comeuppance. I still think Miles Edgeworth is better though EponymousMrYar fucked around with this message at 02:36 on Jun 4, 2015 |

Well they're still hung up on food but at least this is more about the presentation and preparation of it than constantly wanting to consume it. I like the competition and how it's framed (especially since Giulio's fragment has been done.) Riela nodding off and that situation is rather trope-worthy though. Spice-chat was neat at least.

Mzbundifund posted:I couldn't disagree more, and this is why. That's... Not what he's saying. He's saying 'regardless if you believe it or not, it's important for people to believe that salvation is possible.' He didn't say anything about his own beliefs. He's essentially attempting to persuade Kurt to buy into it's importance via a common link they share: they are leaders and they do things for others (Kurt for the Squad, Borgia for his followers) since Kurt has already made his own stance clear.

At least he gets a face. That's more you can say about 99.9% of the other Imperials! Including the vantage point character for Selvaria's DLC in VC1

Night10194 posted:Well, also, 'Consistently survives absolute disasters.' might make her look like she's a deserter or regularly the first one out before a retreat is called. That was what I was assuming they'd done, assumed she was a coward instead of a psychotically brave norse magical girl. Drakenel posted:Yep. Its the viewers with the obsession. Not the developers. Uh huh. They're no match for an awesome pair of hips though

Ikasuhito posted:That's odd, Why is he not being dickish just to spite them? His smug apathy is the nicest anyone in the military has been to them. Now if their actually commander/overseer was there he'd probably be like: 'They're not accepting any Civilians? Then you go in as prisoners.' 'Or we could use civilian knowledge of the lay of the land to find an altern-' 'NOPE! Prisoners. Those are your absolute orders.' Smug apathy actually allows them to do their job better (although they certainly won't get the reward they want unless they impress past that.)
