The thing that gets me about the teasers at the end of your recent LPs is that I don't recognize the games you're previewing. This is already looking good.

I genuinely would have never expected to see people singing the praises of a game tutorial turned into a.... recurring mentor type character? Is that what's going to happen here? I'm not asking for spoilers, mind, I'm just thinking out loud. Or writing out where I think this goes in a forum post, I guess. Shadow Hearts is a weird series that makes a person wonder about things they'd never imagined before. In a good way. GimmickMan fucked around with this message at 02:33 on Mar 6, 2019 |

Well that's a way to depower a protagonist so he doesn't start the sequel with endgame powerups I guess. I think I preferred the stylized portraits from the previous game more. Yuri's old design too.

Blanca is a female name, game! Come on! With that said, Gepetto and the doll apparently attack by doing sassy poses at the enemy, so I'll forgive you this time, Shadow Hearts.

Blanka is gender-neutral esperanto for "white". Blanca is spanish. It is the feminine form of "white", with Blanco being the masculine. Pesky Splinter posted:They get the sex wrong, but it's a loose reference to a story. They should've named him Lobo then. Also that story is dark, geez, the ending makes Drakengard weapon stories look like a happily ever after by comparison. quote:Touched by Lobo's bravery and loyalty to his mate, Seton could not kill him. He and his men roped Lobo, muzzled him and secured him to a horse, taking him back to the ranch. Lobo refused to eat or even look at his captors. They secured him with a chain and he just gazed across his fallen kingdom. Lobo died that night, 4 hours later, due to a broken heart.

I knew this was the "check the flower pot for gay porn" game but I didn't think it'd play out like this.The Dark Id posted:Thanks. I hate it.

ultrafilter posted:...how exactly did you think it would play out? Honestly? I half expected Gepetto to be actually into dudes/fine exemplars of physical fitness and for them to inspire him into learning new puppet magic, which makes about as much sense as Karin using operas as inspiration to learn sword magic.

The last few lines of Papillion's speech and the pose he makes at the end are lifted from Banjo Haran, protagonist of the 1970's anime Daitarn 3. And that was your bit of useless trivia of the day.

Surprisingly cultured Yuri is a good joke. Thanks for continuing to entertain us while life is making GBS threads on you TDI. Don't be afraid to take a bigger break if you need to! We can probably shitpost every now and then to keep this off the archives too.

Happy Landfill posted:Every thing you have chosen to share with us about your family have been genuinely delightful. I think it really is a testament to how much your silly internet stuff has touched our lives that all of us, literally strangers, are mourning with you. I often find myself taking care of children and after reading what Id shared I sometimes found myself thinking that if I ever had to be a dad, I'd be a cool one like him. I'm so sorry man, I wish there was something I could do.

Of course Gama is a historical dude given the SH silliness treatment. I'm getting the feeling Joachim's not going to have a lot of weight in the plot from hereon but he's going to be a lot of fun and that's all I can ask for really.

ultrafilter posted:I think it does deserve a reminder that TDI's additions are in italics, and that anything that's in plaintext or screenshots is actually in the game. For me nothing will beat the day I saw the censored screenshots of Dito killing Five and had to go watch the video to make sure that was a real thing in the game and not just one of TDI's photoshops.

The Nuckelavee is a really cool beastie and one of the rare instances of Shadow Hearts making something look less hosed up than it actually is by redesigning it.

To put in context how hosed up it would be to get Oscar from JP Orthrus, Ultros from Final Fantasy was originally Orthrus. It's still wrong, but a much more reasonable read of Orutorosu than Oscar. Still not the weirdest Shadow Hearts localization choice, I guess.

nicolai's a white mage and rasputin knows drat well if you want your jrpg party to go anywhere you need one of those also if you're going to con royalty into believing you have magical healing powers then treating your actual magical healer well sounds like a good idea

achtungnight posted:So if Amon is Wrath and Asmodeus is Lust, which Deadly Sin is Astaroth? So far, Envy or Pride seem like the best fits. Astaroth is the mistranslated and genderbent version of Astarte, ancient goddess of love, fertility and war. In pop culture (none of these demons are officially keyed to any of the deadly sins, it's all pop culture) he's often associated with lust, just like Asmodeus.

The Vosgian Beast posted:While we're doing things pages late AFAIK Borges edited and published it first in Spain (there was also a shorter version published in Mexico under a different name) so arguably the Book of Imaginary Beings has three different places of origin. But yeah if we're going by the author's nationality then it's Argentine.

If people were responsible about not doing obvious stupid poo poo that would get them and others killed then we wouldn't need laws against drunk driving. In their mind they know what they're doing and it's all the other assholes who don't know how to drive that are the problem.

Huh, I was expecting the end boss would be eldritch Kawashima or Alice. Well, I guess the 2nd isn't entirely out of the question yet but ID is all but saying it's going to be Kato.

I'd kinda figured this would be some sexually suggestive homoeroticism-themed wrestling event. I could not have expected an... Army? of dancing clucking men in a thong carrying a plate of curry on their heads.

Is it intentional Karin doesn't speak during the italicized prefight banter? I legit forgot what she's been up to, just the fortress of regrets, I think...? That was a lot of sidequesting, huh.
