Samurai Sanders posted:There were so many loose ends in the original story of the Z series it's nuts. It's like they were planning for like two more games. I wouldn't be surprised at all if those loose ends ended up being resolved in OG. Cybuster is almost certainly going to turn into Shurouga and end up kicked through a Crossgate or something, possibly by Masaki, and the Z cast will probably get roped into the OGverse much like Haken was.

So I've just finished playing through the 4 stage demo patch for A Portable, and drat this game is a lot more enjoyable in English, and I like what they did with Lamia's 'accent'. I'm really looking forward to the full release, which should hopefully be in the next year or so considering they've translated 41% of the game (though sadly it's unlikely we'll get a new demo patch that continues beyond the game's intro)

So what do you think they'll cover in OG3rd? Alpha 3's a given, but I'd at least like to see the DS trilogy get adapted as well, if only because L's storyline would serve as a perfect finisher for the Shadow-Mirror/Einst/Beowulf subplot.

Aithon posted:What's the best all stat upgrades bonus for the Arbalest in SRW J? (Because full weapon upgrade apparently comes with its own bonus.) Do I get free flight if I go with the S on all terrain bonus? I'm kind of on the fence between that and mobility, because it's already ridiculously agile, but I suppose an S rating anywhere would do pretty much the same thing. S ranks boost literally everything you do, so that's objectively the best choice.

What I want in the next Super Robot Wars game is a true New Game+ mode that lets you use all the mechs in the game right from the start. Even if, no especially if, it means you can have someone fight themselves.

Ashsaber posted:I ended up using standard mode, taking the Touya route to get back into SRW. I haven't played for like a year, and that was on my NG++++ file of J, where pretty much everyone was at 15 bars in everything. Its a much harder game when you can't oneshot mooks in the final battle with Mazinkaiser's weakest weapon. I'm kind of surprised that we didn't end up getting Albero with, I dunno, AI1 as a subpilot so we could field both MX mecha. Alternately one of the unused F/Final pairings.

Brunom1 posted:V Famitsu scans say that you'll, indeed, be able to choose between either Souji or Chitose as the protag; both will pilot the Vangray. The one you didn't choose will be a "sub-protagonist" but it says nothing about being a subpilot... I'm thinking something akin to Z1, in which they pilot something else and act separately. Since the Vangray looks like a mass production real, I bet they'll also pilot a Vangray.

Oh, if you're playing J and want something other than curbstomps from start to finish, I'll note that it's one of the few games that let you give enemy units upgrades. Normally you'd need to play through the game several times to get the option, but there's a rather good cheat FAQ over on GameFAQs that has the codes you'll need to get the option on your first play through instead. ...if you're so inclined, you can also use cheats to set all the secret flags to on, so you can save Gai and still get Great Zeorymer.

Samurai Sanders posted:I never experienced Crossbone outside of Alpha 2 and that was a long time ago (and due to advice from everyone I never watched Age) so can you explain the continuity error? Also does the Crossbone stuff in V take place before the main story or something? The Mother Vanguard was equipped with a Minovsky Drive system, aka the V2 Gundam's famous Wings of Light, despite the series taking place years before Victory.

You're thinking of the Minovsky Craft - the Minovsky Drive is a ridiculously upgraded version that lets you go at sanic speeds using 'sails' of light. The Mother Vanguard, for example, could go from Earth to Jupiter in only a few weeks, compared to the months it took for every other ship.

Logicblade posted:Nah, I'm rolling with Kusuha since I was feeling like using a Super. Seems like I'll be fine, since I've been putting a fair chunk of cash into the Strike as well. I don't like Kira, but I like the Strike, drat it. Should I just squad reals together and supers with support bots, or does it really matter all that much? I just try to have it so there's an accel user in as many squads as I can like I did in Z. Generally you want an accel user in every squad, EN and repair supportbots with EN hogging supers like Getter, Mazinkaiser and GaoGaiGar, and then just the strongest PLA units you can scrounge up. Barrier-users are also fantastic for super squads, Rei being chief among them. You may or may not want to keep Asuka and Shinji together for their combo attack, but you can just as easily shuffle them into the backrow of any unit for AT field goodness. You also want any combination attack partners in the same squad for obvious reasons, though Rei is a potential exception. Protip: Amuro only needs Kayra in the least valuable MS you have, since the Nu's funnels will violate the poo poo out of anything and everything in the game. Also the Dendrobium is a beautiful thing for the entire early-mid game, and I recommend giving it to someone more capable than Kou, like the Purus.

Hokuto posted:I'd kind of like to see them treat the third movie as a thing in a future SRW game, where people treat Shinji the same way they did in the movie, for the same reasons. IE, this guy triggered Third Impact and now he's awake again, holy poo poo guys we really can't afford to trigger this kid by telling him what he did, but we also can't do anything to stimulate him otherwise. Conclusion: Nobody talk to the kid and shun him at every turn, until somebody like Shinn speaks up and goes "But that's stupid!" But I guess for that, the fourth movie would have to exist first, so that the third move can have a real endgame to speak of. Idea: Getter Armageddon and Eva 2.0 have their conclusions at the same time (instead of Zeruel its Shin Getter?). Come the interrogation scene in 3.0, Shinji's about to mentally tell Rei where he is when KNOCK KNOCK ITS GETTER, and Ryouma's here to bust Shinji out since the last time he saw the kid, he was doing something awesome and his current treatment is bullshit.

But come with me and we'll do badass things, gently caress these guys." Depends on when this happens, really. If its still early on and Ryouma just got back from the moon, he might not know jack poo poo about NERV's current operations. Meaning he'd probably end up stealing the Reiclone and taking her along for the ride.

Daler Mehndi posted:Though I've not watched it all the way through yet, the Demonbane anime is toned way down from what I've seen. It works, since the visual novel was really just a super robot story with random porn thrown in. Said porn was, admittedly, hilarious in a horrifying way, because it was obvious that the CG artist didn't really give a gently caress about what he was drawing. This ultimately resulted in some rather... terrifying anatomy. The real cosmic horror isn't Cthulhu, it's what's in Kurou's pants. Regardless, the Demonbane anime is indeed toned down in a lot of ways, many of them bad. Like cutting out Metatron and Sandalphon entirely. Another thing the anime was sadly unable to adapt properly due to its very nature was how wildly things diverge after the first six or so chapters, because there was some truly crazy poo poo like Master Thereon not coming back to life because he kills the Tyrant and Sandalphon taking his place as the pilot of Liber Legis and ultimately final boss, Leica the nun turning out to be a superhero, DOKUTA WEEEESTO building an evil grimoire powered motorcycle, Kurou turning evil because of mind control and Ruri stepping up as Demonbanes pilot, Ruris grandfather turning out to be a time travelling Kurou... There's really a ton of awesome content in the VN that the anime left out. GilliamYaeger fucked around with this message at 19:16 on Nov 23, 2016 |
