When you ride the tiger, you don't get off, you don't stop. No one stops. Even if you think the tiger's been dead for a year or two.

The controversy was from this item. It was just vendor trash you could get from fishing (there is an absurd amount of fishing vendor trash.) It's actually referencing the MIM-64 Mauler a SUPER early drone anti-aircraft system. Ya know... cuz of all the frikken robots. And this game kinda being a commentary on drone warfare being hosed. The item icon is literally a fuckin' rocket launcher... But, gamers assumed they were dunking on the precious the Nintendo 64 and got super mad because they're huge man-child dipshits. It's real dumb.

That's obviously a Super Scope, so it was completely rude of squenix to do a double insult to my precious baby love of two generations of Nintendo.

Moose are dangerous as hell if provoked for a few reasons:
  • Outside of a few sidequests (which still have static levels) all enemies in the game have levels based on story progression that are reasonably within parameters of where the player should be. Moose do not. Moose don't give a gently caress. Their levels scale with 2B regardless of what point in the game it is. They will always be a threat. There are four enemies in the game that can potentially be Level 99. Two are optional super bosses. One is a moose.

Do enemies have friendly fire enabled? Can you aggro a moose and chase it through a robot mob with hilarious results?

I'm not gonna lie, DarkId, when I saw this conversation, I thought for a moment they had contracted you to ghostwrite part of this game. This is so one of your italicized conversations it hurts.

Drakengard 3 came along after a long hiatus from FFX or something and seems even more like it was written by Id.

Still not 100% convinced he didn't get abducted and forced to do this. The weapon story about how he escaped and dueled Dark Lord Taro Yoko for his freedom will be magnificent.

e: now that I think about it, the most Drakengard(!) thing I can imagine is that they'd skip Drakengards 4-5 and go straight to 6.

I love being on Taro Yoko's Wild Ride 5. It's like riding a tiger, its thrilling, epic, and if you dare fall off you're doomed to a Drakengard(!) Weapon Story fate.

Excuse you.

Taro Yoko's Wild Ride 4. He had almost nothing to do with that abomination that is Drakengard 2. Just Video Editing.

You misunderstand, Taro Yoko is the kind of person who would release 20 doom boars on a school and label them 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 14, 23 and 38, a prank with at least 3 layers of fun in it, including pissing off the math teacher trying to find a pattern in it.

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose grin,
And wrinkled lip, and stare of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Emil, Top of Boys;
Buy stuff now or kick yourself later!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

2B Early Concept Art – Learning that Akihiko Yoshida, the character designer for the original Final Fantasy Tactics featuring bubble butt Ramza Beoulve and Vagrant Story featuring assless chaps sporting Ashley Riot, designed 2B suddenly makes her design make a lot more sense. Dude just loves shapely butts.
