My wife is a huge Disney fan and I almost tried to get her into Kingdom Hearts and then I realized all of this insane final fantasy digital data crap basically steals the spotlight and decided it wasn't worth it
Ironically the FF part has shrunk to nothing and the whole digital data stuff was enabled by including Tron in KH2.

More shonen needs do it like Dragon ball and have the main character get married and have kids (and grandkids!)

Jojo works too
Goku got married on a misunderstanding, spent most of his time away from his wife and was the shittiest dad ever. Like, the only good part of his parenting is that he left the task of raising his son to Piccolo and that wasn't planned anyway.

I like how in Astral Blade the boy has full clothing but the girl has random tactical shorts.

Good design!

That's completely in line with the toku shows that games seems to emulate.

What are some good videogame romances? There have to be at least a handful by now.
Sora/Kairi in KH1 is a really cute one. Pity they derailed it in KH2.

Gotta admire that well-placed title logo to hide mermaid bits from innocent console gamer eyes.

What was the first AAA game to feature titties, anime or polygonal? Earliest I remember was God of War 1
Sorta depends on what time period we include and what qualified as AAA before the term came into common use. Was Giants: Citizen Kabuto AAA? Before that, Nomad Soul had them and definitely was a super high profile game for its time. Even before that, Daggerfall had them. In general, before console (and american) censorship levels standardized across all platforms and markets it wasn't as hard to find as you might think.

Being in a high school setting is what characterizes the Persona series.

a disney game with singing in it? how entirely unexpected

To be fair it's only happened in one prior game in the whole KH saga, and that was the Atlantica segment in KH2 which most people probably want to erase from their memory.

Which is a pity really because sung boss fights against the forces of evil and black coats could have been very fun.

If that's what it takes just waifu up AW

I have no idea how you would pull that off

It's called Gadget Trial and it was made 13 years ago. The basic idea is the tanks and planes are waifus.

As far as Spelunky is concerned, you unlock shortcuts to each floor and that’s about it. The game is what it is, so if you don’t like it by now then nothing that happens further in will change your mind.
It goes even further than that, the "advantages" you unlock are not advantages but training wheels to help you get familiarized with later areas, but they actually not only make you weaker (since you can't accrue powerups from earlier floors if you use the shortcuts), they also cut you off from secret levels since using a shortcut means you'll skip the first item you need to unlock them. In dead cells the game's been designed so you need permanent advantages, while in Spelunky it's designed so the advantages are just a short term thing you'll eventually want to drop.

Half of the character designer. They're brothers, but only one of them is the LWA guy (also main mecha designer fur Gurren Lagann and present on a bunch of other trigger stuff). But also yeah, he's a massive westaboo, even had an alt deviantart account to draw MLP stuff.

His bro is an animator specializing in "weird" anims. Made in Abyss monsters, the moving statue in LWA, stuff like that.

That has me thinking, in the English-language Kingdom Hearts when you get norted your name is an anagram plus an X. How did they do it in the original Japanese
It's based on the western spelling in japanese too. That's why one of the scenes added in final mix literally shows the roman characters being rearranged from Sora to Roxas, so it would be clearer to japanese players.
