Pretty sure that Knightman is straight garbage compared to Magnetman.

Also even though I agree with Medi being better, I adore aqua-type .EXEs so ToadMan is da best by default.

ALSO THERE'S NO ESCAPE FROM CHAOS-SOUL DRKWDSHT

NO FUCKING ESCAPE AT ALL IT'S TOO GOOD.

I actually think the whole Chaos Soul/Dark chips were really bad and I'm glad they made Crosses a permanent feature in in BN6. Bass Cross as awesome, and Crosses have the better thing of being permanent until you use beast soul.
 
SkullGirls was made for audience X. X happens to have crossover with W and Y, but X is still where they're trying to focus. If someone in Y complains that X isn't appealing to Y more, that seems selfish to me. It's not 100% for you, so complaining about how it's not for you when it isn't intended to be is just centered around getting what you want, which is selfish by definition.

You're right, I'll give that much. In this specific sense of it, I am being unreasonable.

You could say my desire to see at least for most fighting games to meet a bar of conservatism is the facist in me. But I say, so what?
There's no compromise here, so there is no fairness.
You're right that I could just chose not to support the product in the first place, and I usually do. But in this case, I'm already in there and it's turning my back on a great fighting game, and I don't want to do that. And I probably won't, If a theoretical Skullgirls 2 is the same level of weird, I'll probably just endure it too.
But until then, I'll continue to voice my oppinion, same as you.

I remember Knightman being able to block damage without having any sort of meter. That's why I liked him better.
You didn't throw a brick through the store's window to get yourself some Rabu Rive?

I was in a mall. Too crowded. I plan on going back, though. Maybe I'll take some pics.

hey guys I see you guys just blazed through like 10 pages while I was busy monster hunting, I'm really liking this game, today I spent maybe 10 hours playing and maybe 1 of those hours were doing new quests...the rest off the time I was just grinding for shit...I love this fucking game.

Yeah, these nerds and their bad opinions racked up the pages.

What are the abyssals? (My first impression where a femalized octopus/barnacle)

Dabes. That's all you need to know.
 
:/
Don't insult my favorite SMT artist with that....
I don't really mean it as a negative. I vastly prefer Kaneko and Soejima, but it's easy to poke fun at how noticeable his drawing style is.

Take some cool Nemissa art you probably already have.

Geez man, don't get too caught up on Low Rank. I do key quests and rush to G to collect things.
Remember how I mentioned that I never owned a PS1? I also never grew up with the X series as a kid. I played the original very recently, and after beating it found it was lacking that classic Megaman bite that I've come to expect from any Megaman game.
X being kinda easy is the worst thing I can say about it. I recommend X3 if you want it harder, especially since X2 is meh. Also X4 onwards is dumb.

That's so weird, considering I love every megaman series except the Original. From X to Battle network, from Zero to ZX. I played and completed most outside the original.

The originals just seem too hard and feel lacking to play.

I love Megaman 9, and would argue that it's LOADS better than 2 and 3 combined.

I also played the fangame Megaman Unlimited, which I also enjoyed but goddamn is that game more unforgiving than any MM game ever originally made by Capcom.

I also played MMxSF, which, let's be honest here, has shit stage design compared to the rest of the official series. The bosses being as crazy as they are don't make up for it. And this is coming from someone who managed to get to, fight, and beat Akuma!

I think we both overreacted a bit, so I'm willing to say we're cool if you are. (My parents were super restrictive for the first chunk of my life, and only eased up more recently. I played the fucking PC port of Sonic Heroes.)

I think a lot of my dislike for Skyrim comes from my love of deep, complex RPGs. (I'm the kind of guy who prefers 3.5e D&D to 4 and 5, if that means anything to you.) It probably isn't fair to call it objectively bad, especially considering I did put a fair amount of time into it. Personally, I prefer Red Dead as an open world, and Oblivion as an RPG.

Some of the plots really are terrible, though.
I'm looking at you, thieves guild.

God, I actually gagged a bit at the idea of a Sonic Heroes port on PC. I'm so sorry.

I'm glad you eased up a bit on the objectively part at least. I don't like seeing people toss that word around like the word literally for some people. Where you're coming from makes total sense as well as Red Dead feels more like a world instead of a sand box for you to become the ultimate sword wielding magic man in. Oblivion also has way more depth and even Morrowind before it has even crazier depth as far as RPGs go. I think Oblivion isn't that deep of an RPG compared to other games, but whatever you like is what you like. I also can't speak for the plots much as I barely remember a lot of the games plot.

Platinum should have Ninja Theory make the next Bayonetta, Call it UW: Bayonetta
where bayo is a goth teenage girl that fights angels by using her jailbait powers.

Haven't had a Nintendo handheld since the GBA and local stores have these annoying contraptions attached so I can't actually get a good idea of how comfortable they are to hold. Don't think I have babby hands.

Always wanted to try crack/Monster Hunter.

Classic series never really clicked with me. I guess I just love dashing and wall jumping too much.

I've watched 9 episodes of KanColle and I still don't know what the story is. I may have missed it at the beginning and I have no knowledge outside of the anime.
Does the Web browser game have a story as well?
What are they fighting for?
What are the abyssals? (My first impression was a femalized octopus/barnacle)
There only seems to be one type of abyssal going with what they've shown already. They also seem like they are incapable of speech.
Is there any sort of reason for the fleet to be ship girls or are we supposed to just roll with it? (Either is fine to me)
Do the ship girls have actual personalities in the game or are they just card illustrations with nothing to it then that?
Are there more ship girls around the world?
Actually are there even normal people in this world?

I know so of these questions aren't meant to be answered but I'm still curious.
There's no story. Some backstory, but that's about it. The ship girls have some personality, since they are voiced and have some dialogue in special scenes. There are more ship girls, there are normal people, technically the ship girls are normal people with special abilities and "souls" of ships inside them or something like that. There are other abyssal ships. The admiral is a normal person.

Hard to judge without having tried it for yourself, but I know I actually don't mind either handheld. I just hold them really differently. Despite the shitty pixel density, I prefer the larger screen but YMMV really.

I actually think the whole Chaos Soul/Dark chips were really bad and I'm glad they made Crosses a permanent feature in in BN6. Bass Cross as awesome, and Crosses have the better thing of being permanent until you use beast soul.

The closest thing I've experienced is BN3's Style system, which I really enjoyed until I realized how much fucking grinding you needed to do to change styles. Also not a fan of random elemental properties with each style. I consider myself blessed to roll Aqua not just in BN3 but in BN2 as well. It fits me the best anyways.

Chaos-Soul makes my dick rock-hard with how hard it smashes through the game and how there's a risk of you fucking up and eating shit (but not permanently).

I never cared for using Dark Chips raw.

X being kinda easy is the worst thing I can say about it. I recommend X3 if you want it harder, especially since X2 is meh. Also X4 onwards is dumb.

I plan to play through all the X games in order. Just like Zero and ZX. Granted those were way shorter series but my point stands.

...I also wouldn't mind trying to beat MMX2 live on stream...

...you know, if anyone cared...

................no one does.................
 
Damn frank west plays like shit in this game.
It helped reconfirm his hatred for Star Notes as far as I know. He probably thinks it's an okay game already despite it having a lot of repeat songs from older games. It's still a good game if you want to get into it.



X..Y.X..X..Y...X..Y..X......X..Y..X..X+A

Or something like that. It was neat when it was new, but I see it as a lazy action game now. Hopefully Arkham City switches up the formula to make the combat more engaging than just timed Xs and occasionally a Y and occasionally a special move to kill a shieldman.
I like arkham city a lot and its mostly because of the gadgets. I feel like what you would be describing is the combat for shadows of mordor.

I just kept seeing Kantai Collection as the source listed and wondering why. The boat parts kinda threw me off but not enough to question what I was doing.
So... All you thought was that they were some anime girls with boat parts? There's no point in questioning porn, especially doujins.

Why do you feel the need to even use the gadgets? The game is easy enough without them. The only reason to ever do it is for context specific things or to keep a combo going which never matters.

In a Bayonetta I have a stinger. In an Arkham game I have a point stick at guy and press X to slide over to punch him.

Also thanks for the reddit Poop flair mike.

Does anyone else have this thing where a woman wearing leopard print instantly makes her bangable?

I once almost hooked up with someone leagues below my standards because she was wearing leopard print and the only reason I didn't was because a friend was sober and stopped me.

Am I the only one with this weakness?

You might be the only one currently here with a weakness to leopard print, but there are other specific thing that makes a girl/woman really attractive or hot or bangable that other people may have.

Not me, I personally think tiger stripe is tacky. I'm a sucker for a girl in all black, or frills.....mmmm frills

This only tells me how to play the game.

There are more ship girls, there are normal people, technically the ship girls are normal people with special abilities and "souls" of ships inside them or something like that. There are other abyssal ships. The admiral is a normal person.
Ok this answers a few questions. So its just a basic good vs bad type thing. Now all that's left are the abyssals. They don't look man-made, instead they look like something 2 giant rocks would give birth to. It doesn't look like there's a master mind controlling them from behind like the admiral either.

best girl on cover?

FUCK ME I FORGOT THAT
CHILDREN IN AWAKENING CAN HAVE DIFFERENT HAIR COLORS

WHOEVER THAT PERSON MARRIED WITH EACH OTHER, THOSE CHOICES WERE WRONG
I barely cared enough to finish it myself, and MMX1 is one of my favorite games.

I thought it was fun while I was playing... That and the one cousin that I relate to in my family swears up and down about how much he loves it.

I've never played Fire Emblem.

I'm pretty sad Soul Hackers isn't that popular. Its been really really great so far. There should be more fan art.

Another unpopular opinion, Saturn and PS1 era ATLUS was better than PS2 era ATLUS
I meant on friender reddit. What even is this shit????
It's really great tho.

It's a web based cardgame with cute ship girls, so meh. They just leave out a lot of unimportant things because they don't need it. I remember the abyssals being ships that just appeared out of no where.
Longer than you'd think and not as long as you'd hope.
I dunno, I read like 10 and realized it was about boatgirls and ignored it until it came up in figureGAF where I lurk.
I see... That's quite a few to read while not knowing a thing about them.
