ultrafilter posted:Has this come up in the thread before? I think this might be the first mention of it. But yeah, this game came on two DVDs. I still remember opening up the box and wondering what I'd gotten myself into. Amusingly when it was first released in the US it also had a deal where you got a free copy of Shadow Hearts 1 with it. It was a whole loving lot of game for $50.

Look that one up on youtube, it's great. But I don't think they had a puppeteer. Zubat is still the finest television show ever made. It may even be the Number 1 television show in Japan.

The reference in that particular Wolf Bout was Bianca telling the space-wolf that it couldn't resist Earth's gravity and that it should go back where it came from. Unsurprisingly that is also a reference to Mobile Suit Gundam's Char and his obsession with people's souls being weighed down by Earth's gravity, as well as his belief all humanity should return to space.

Taciturn Tactician posted:So the game expects you to have gotten an optional fusion but not gotten the good ending? Weird, usually sequels either assume average completion or 100% completion, not a patchwork. To be fair the optional fusion is a lot easier to stumble in to than the true ending.

...! posted:The problem with Lucia is that she's completely worthless compared to the other characters. Eh, I wouldn't say that. Some of the later-game aromatherapy skills are loving bonkers. There's one particular set which is basically the biggest damage boosting potential in the game which is pretty great as a support character for a team of heavy hitters. The game isn't hard enough to need that but it isn't like Lucia doesn't have her strengths.

Materant posted:To be honest, this adventure probably would have happened even if the good ending had happened, because WWI and Rasputin's plot weren't going to magically not happen just because Alice escaped getting eaten by a death curse. But Alice's death shook Yuri in a big way, and he's still got the threat of the Mistletoe obliterating his mind looming over him. I feel like if Alice was around Yuti wouldn't have gotten cursed (and also would probably have Seraphic Radiance) and so his encounter with the villain team would have begun and ended with godlike death lasers from orbit.

Are all of them like "yeah that guy hosed up, but I'll be the one to get it right!"? Pretty much. "Oh well no wonder they hosed up, they were using it wrong. *I* have a much better idea" with a side of "This is literally the only way I can be reunited with the person I love."

I mean it's worth noting that none of the SH:C characters are bad. Gepetto is probably the weakest of the lot and has the least interesting gimmicks but he can be very strong. Lucia being a joke in the LP doesn't change the fact that she has absolutely gamebreakingly powerful oil combinations. It's just that most of that isn't really necessary in SH:C.

The Dark Id posted:Oh yeah, if you didn't know the lack of updates from here to now wasn't any Lowtax bullshit. I immediately ate poo poo super hard putting a bunch of heavy crap in an attic, like two days later when a step on the ladder up snapped and I broke the poo poo out of my wrist, tailbone and a few ribs with a concussion for good measure! Semi-fixed most of that. Except for the hand thing where pinky and ring finger don't work so good anymore. Made sitting down, playing video games, doing word processing and video editing extremely unpleasant a prospect for several months, as it turned out! Still not great. But we'll make it work! It is good you are back but I certainly hope the next year is less cursed for you.

I'm pretty sure the "Three Times Stronger" comment is supposed to be another Gundam reference. In particular Char (played by the same dude who voices our favorite Good Boy) red Zaku II is said to be "three times faster" which is kind of a meme in Japan. (You'll see it show up a *lot* in JRPGs, especially where red robots are involved.)

# ¿ May 16, 2021 09:54 |

And of course the reason Bianca is summoning Char is because they have the same voice actor, completing the stupid inexplicable game-long voice actor joke.

Materant posted:I found this out shortly after I brought it up way back when, but if Shuichi Ikeda voiced Blanca, he did it under a pseudonym. Blanca is listed on IMDB as Takeshi Toyoda, who has done no other roles than Blanca. Nor can you trace it to his English VA, who was Richard Cansino. Richard Cansino, while he did voice a character in the original Mobile Suit Gundam, voiced Hayato Kobayashi, rather than Char Aznable. IMDB is wrong. Suichi Ikeda is the Japanese voice for Blanca. Hell check his Japanese wiki page if you want which specifically mentions Blanca: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%B1%A0%E7%94%B0%E7%A7%80%E4%B8%80 Also here's an interview with the developers where they specifically mention that he was basically intended as the voice actor from the start: https://dengekionline.com/soft/recommend/sh2/index.html ImpAtom fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Jun 11, 2021 |

Leraika posted:Yeah, 100 floors of weird toku references (nice, Sun Vulcan!) and rear end shots sounds amazing in theory and is awful in practice. Yeah just in case people didn't know the Panther/Shark/Eagle thing is a direct reference to Sun Vulcan (the 5th Super Sentai series) where the protagonists are VulEagle, VulShark and VulPanther.

FeyerbrandX posted:Huh, Kurando even with his fancy protagonist-lite powers couldn't even outplay Geppeto. I mean Gepetto is in your party from basically the start of the game and you can't even bench him for a while while Kurnado joins relatively late in the game and when you already have a full party.
