change my vote to this, but you should all still google Dennis Hawkins

Wikipedia posted:

Dennis Hawkins (born 22 October 1947) is a Welsh inside forward who played professionally in the 1960s and early 1970s

This has nothing to do with crimes.

Off the top of my head, he gave favorable reviews to Silent Hill 2, Psychonauts, and Half-Life, and went out of his way to do an extremely quick Undertale review just so that he could list it as his top game of 2015 without violating his rule of only using games that he reviewed in his yearly top 10s.

If I recall the Undertale review was the single line "Undertale is a good game".

Believe it or not, but the thing that made me most excited for Persona 5 was seeing the protagonist use dark curse spells as a viable source of damage instead of just an insta-kill move. I loved Naoto's ability to annihilate trash mobs in P4, but you never brought her into boss battles unless you were playing The Golden.

The Eiha skill line is actually resurrected from Persona 1, along with a few other things.

I'll admit, that's earlier than I expected fuckin' Mara to show up! Although, it's more like...half of Mara? Did he leave the chariot at home?

e: I seem to have been beaten to the punch/blind to potential symbolism.

It might be a reference to some previous SMT where it was similarly hobbled. Mara Slime or something like that.

I'm whatever intern Nintendo of America got to voice Mist in Fire Emblem 9 and 10.

Actually just 9, for 10 they had Lani Minella pull quadruple duty on every girl that had voiceovers.

That explains why Micaiah, Mist, and Mia are all equally bad.

(As is everyone else except like... Shinon.)

The strange thing is the guy that did Shinon has no other voice credits that aren't documentary narration.

They might be kind of inconsistent about it sometimes though, since I know there was griping about some of the demons added to Deep Strange Journey Redux.

Oh joy, a school trip to Hawaii. I'm sure this will be culturally respectful and not have any awful stereotypes.

...Hang the gently caress on, didn't we just had a beach scene? Did no one think this through?

Not only that, it promises to be a worse beach scene in other ways. It's a school trip, so Futaba and Yusuke won't be there since they're not Shujin students.

Yeah, it's why I mentioned Iwai and Mishima's links. I guess Tora never needed any saving in his link, but then again his link never really had anyone nasty screwing him over.

Not in the present, no, but he was the target of a big scandal years ago which was no doubt completely false.

It's like nobody even stopped to even think that it may have been sliiiiiiightly tone-deaf to the themes of the game.

That describes significantly more of this game than just "you can date your teacher".

I agree. It just feels like the writers' go-to method, and it's just a bit much.

Joker's initial arrest, Kamoshida, Kaneshiro, Okumura, Haru's fiance himself, even minor ones like the rear end in a top hat in Mishima's Confidant and brought up in Makoto's, it seems to always default to threats of sexual violence against women.

I guess it's a matter of opinion though.

I offhand don't remember if there are any normal spend-time-with-them-type social links with female characters that don't involve threats of sexual violence, whether to the link themselves or someone else.

It's... maybe Chihaya and Hifumi don't, and that's it?

Kawakami was being asked to pay an insane amount of money. Oh, this reminds me, now that those losers have agreed to pay her back, she’ll probably be a rich woman. If they can get that much money that is.

And was very nearly forced into sex work to get that kind of money, if you'll recall...

One of Daymond's other roles is also a cop; he's the voice of Lloyd Bannings of the Crossbell police in Trails of Cold Steel II (and hopefully III and IV, once XSEED gets around to localizing those).

Makoto, Haru, and Morgana do not get lines in that scene, because gently caress ‘em I guess.

Wasn't the death of Haru's awful dad just a couple months ago? Her voice could be too recognizable to reporters and such.

As for Makoto, :shrug:

Yeah. Honestly my biggest reaction to that was "Whose dick did Nintendo have to suck to get the star of one of Sony's biggest JRPG franchises for Smash?"

I kind of want to do a writeup of Joker's appearance in noted good game and not a hell of infinite grinding in which we are thrown to suffer Granblue Fantasy, but his event ran long enough ago that I don't recall a lot of it.

He looks pretty great in Granblue style, though:



I don't remember much of it either really. In terms of where it would fit into P5's canon I think it's between the art museum and the bank? Yusuke was around but not anyone that joined after him.

On the other hand, it's also recent enough that the wiki has the full transcript of the event.

Meanwhile, Joker himself is a solid unit and middle-of-the-road as far as SSRs go in his element (dark, of course).
