These persona awakenings are as hell and I love the protagonist's slasher grin. When "Will Power" starts playing, you know poo poo's about to get real. On my NG+, I taught Arsene Growth 3 and some other high-level skills to keep him viable for longer. It turns out his skill points go mainly towards Agility, so as you level him up his AG stat becomes obscenely high. Fitting for a gentleman thief.

I checked the stats on my NG+ Arsene. At the moment, he's sitting at level 38 with most of his stats at the low to average end for a Persona of that level... except, of course, Agility which is currently at 44. He's never going to be the hardest hitter on the team, but after the skill upgrades I gave him he is a pretty decent all-rounder, and that agility of his is quite useful as well.

I was about to say that the screenshots look a bit dark on my end, but that's not actually the case as far as I can tell. That section in the castle just is really dark no matter what, and the game's visuals don't seem to handle the screenshot compression (or resizing) all that well in general.

So uh, those "Battle" and "Urgent" tabs on there when you're making infiltration items? I somehow managed to do almost two entire playthroughs of this game without noticing you could change tabs on that screen, and only found out when someone in the main thread over at Games mentioned you could do that. I'm usually more attentive than this, so I have no clue what the hell happened there. Guess I was always so focused on just making lockpicks and checking how many materials I had that I didn't pay any attention to the rest of the screen.

Right there at the top, next to "TOOLS". I'm glad I'm not the only one who never noticed those tabs until someone pointed them out, this must be how it feels to be one of those people who always miss the "This LP is available on the Internet Archive" banner on the LP Archive.

GuyUpNorth posted:Mara's a classic Then we have at least Angel, dating back to Nocturne IIRC. Also, I often see people say that despite appearances, Mara is supposed to be female. I'm not exactly an expert on the topic of dick monsters but I'm guessing those folks are getting their Maras confused, as there are several goddesses with that name in various mythologies. The Mara who tried to tempt Buddha during his meditation (and the one that's in the SMT games) is usually depicted as a male demon. (edit: apparently some of the games such as Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon refer to Mara as a goddess, so I guess that's where it comes from) DMorbid fucked around with this message at 01:57 on May 31, 2017 |

You go into the depths of the sector looking for her, reach the door, step through, and GWAHAHAHAHA it's Mara. In the ensuing conversation Mara mentions that it was a goddess at one time. Evidently not any longer, though.

Fair enough, I got confused by the phrasing. To be honest, I haven't seen a Don Quijote outside a Yakuza game either.

I feel kinda bad for abandoning the Innocent Sin LP I had going on. I have a ton of material recorded so theoretically I can get back to it at some point, but writing updates for the thread felt like work and I didn't think the LP was turning out as well as the game deserved.

You could have Maaku visit her in the physical rehab center, find out she's made the Phan-site on her laptop and that the Phantom Thieves taking down Kamoshida has made her their biggest fan or something. I wonder if there were any plans to make her a party member or a Confidant.

Shenmue and Shenmue 2, as well. They basically just picked random English speakers off the street and told them to do a bunch of voices they sometimes didn't even have the range for. As for the first Resident Evil, I don't think Barry's voice actor was even a native speaker and was actually Norwegian or something. Combine that with a bunch of Japanese Capcom staff who didn't speak any English, and you get some legendary voice acting.

Wiseblood posted:Apparently for Shenmue they wanted actors that looked like the characters they would voice for some reason. Also one of the reasons they chose the guy who played Ryo was because he knew martial arts. That same guy was also told to voice an old man despite him repeatedly telling them it would sound terrible because he can't do a voice like that convincingly, so eventually he just did this worst old man voice ever and they were happy with it.

The repetitive voice clips in the Velvet Room do get annoying eventually, especially when you're fusing a whole bunch of stuff and constantly have some shrill little jerk yelling at you.

Akechi's Japanese voice actor (yeah, yeah, I know, I'm a horrible weeb) also does a hell of a job in this scene. Dude sounds like he's going utterly insane, and it's fantastic.
