Galahad's sword? Jeez Nicholas, that's pretty ritzy using such an historical artifact for starter equipment.

Wait, so, Nicolai's whole thing is that he was destined to save the world, but Yuri and friends did it first, so now Nicolai wants to murder Yuri so he can be famous or something? That's super petty. Yuri doesn't appear to have gained anything from saving the world, he's not well known or rich, his one reward was getting to continue to live in a not destroyed world, something Nicolai (and everyone else in the world) also benefits from. Nicolai has lost nothing from not being the one to punch out God other than, apparently, having his ego damaged. Am I misunderstanding? Or is Nicolai really just that much of an insecure jerk?

Video games with playable dog characters are usually pretty great, case in point: Okami. That puppet is kind of freaking me out. Does she ever talk? Or is she just kind of there? I can't decide if it's creepier for her to talk or not talk.

My favorite version of the myth is the one where Arachne brags about being better at weaving than the Gods and then Athena comes down and is all "oh yeah?! Prove it!" and Arachne is just like "Fine, I will" and it turns out Arachne actually IS better at weaving than the Gods and Athena is so pissed about this she whacks Arachne other the head and murders her and then turns her corpse into a spider as an extra little gently caress you. The Greek Gods were total dicks.

David D. Davidson posted:There's the story of how Hermes and Apollo became friends. Hmmm, yeah, fair enough, that story only contains some light animal abuse and mutilation. Which is super tame by Greek standards. Also, now that I think about it, the story of Echo and Narcissus doesn't have sexual assault or horrific violence either. Just extreme emotional distress and body horror.

Man, sign me up for the "I hate Karin's new outfit" bandwagon. I think I wouldn't dislike it as much if her military uniform hadn't been such a good look for her, it's such a massive step down design wise.

Kemix posted:The fact Vaan was the main protagonist because they thought Basch wasn't engaging/attractive enough to sell the game on his own still pisses me off. FF12 had a LOT of bad choices, but the Vaan/Basch one was probably the worst of the lot...so much beginning padding... Well, it's not the first time square enix picked the wrong person to be a protagonist. Yuna should have been the lead in Final Fantasy X. That is a fact.

BioMe posted:Not sure what distinction you are trying to get at here, but if you say so Well first of all The color scheme is awful, the beige of the top blends in with Karin's skin way too much and causes her to look like a weird topless barbie in low lighting. Also, aside from being three sizes too small It's a remarkably bland outfit. It's not just fan service, it's boring fan service.

The Persona 5 stuff is significantly worse. The Magimel brothers may be stereotypes, but at least they're actual characters (and portrayed as pretty nice guys with useful skills) and not just an excuse to do child rape jokes. For the sake of my own sanity I'm just going to go ahead and assume that Cornelia is a small doll modeled after an adult woman. Actually, is she modeled after Gepetto's late wife? Is she inhabited by his late wife's ghost? That would be kind of sweet, in a super creepy way.

Ubiquitous_ posted:I would say none of them are as aesthetically interesting as SH1's Fusions. It's a side effect of the much, much more lighthearted tone of the game, unfortunately. Accordion Man posted:The Level 3 Fusions are cool, but they are more traditional looking compared to some of SH1's weird looking fusions. That's a bit of a bummer, I really loved how strange and creative the fusions were in the last game.

Really don't think the Mayor thought attacking Yuri and friends through: He and his gang weren't strong enough to beat Joachim, the new group WAS strong enough to beat Joachim, so of course that group is going to be strong enough to beat HIM.

Take all the time you need to deal with real life stuff, these let's plays are hilarious and well loved but everyone in this thread understands you're also an adult with a job and a life and that comes first Anyway, Joachim continues to be the best character. I very much respect his commitment to the craft in regards to refusing to use his vampire powers outside of costume.
