Well, I'm not going to beat Bayo 2 on third climax because I guess I just got lucky with the platinum trophies so far. I cannot get through The Depths at all.

Honestly, since Unfolded is basically a complete remake, it's worthwhile to get both.

Also, I will shill for the game til the end of time. I think Tearaway is a wonderful exhibition of what the Vita is capable of, and it is adorable as all hell.

I wish it was more of a game. It's way too easy.

Oh sweet D4 playthrough.

If I can join in the Eva discussion, I feel that I connected with the show at a personal level at a young age. I wasn't able to understand much of anything that was going on, but I was going through a lot of things at the time that coincide with the series (
not being treated yet for clinical depression, feeling lost and lonely in the world, basically had no friends, was considering suicide, had yet to be diagnosed with the mental/social problems that I have, and thus was not getting the help and support that I needed, etc etc, very fun stuff like that
). Something in it just made me feel like I was not alone in it all. It of course was not until years later on reading plot synopsis that I actually understood what was happening, but at the age I watched it, there was something there on a primal level that held my attention.

I still need to go back and watch the whole thing myself, but I've got A LOOOOOOOT on my backlog before I reach that point.

I was and am in a very similar place, just remember that if you ever need to talk, there are people here that will listen and try to help as best we can. Even if you are past that point, it can still help to talk. My experience with depression really brought the show up in my opinion because it allowed me to sympathize with the characters and connect with them.

I don't doubt it's adorable, but I'm petty enough that I just dislike the artstyle, and so it drops a few rungs on my list of must haves. I'm still, for sure, buying it.

If it ever gets a sequel, I would love for an increased difficulty.

The artstyle can be a turn off. I understand that. I still haven't installed Dust because the artstyle.

Seriously though, those games I listed are all the game I'm definitely buying. SK is on my must haves.

Man all this talk about EVA reminds me of when I first watched EoE. I found the original series too depressing to watch at times, and Shinji was my most hated character from any story. Ever. I get all the shit that he's going through and that it's pretty much the crux of the show, but GOTDAMN, I just cannot stand his unwillingness to man up! I get that his depression stops him from that, but it seriously bugs me that he never truly becomes the hero that Earth needs.

Anyway, back to EoE, I have mixed feelings about it. At times it's amazing, but then it gets more like the original series towards the end.
The scene where Asuka is fighting the mass production EVAs was incredible, by far my favourite part of the movie; but then at the end where everyone just turns into LCL...man, that shit was frightening. I find that the concept of LCL, of all humans becoming one entity of non/existence, the complete loss of individuality and the soul, and overall just the annihilation of our species...That shit scares the fuck out of me.

That being said, I really enjoy the Rebuild series. Shinji is still Shinji, but there are certain parts
like the end of 2.22
where he really started to shine. The battle scenes between the EVAs and Angels is where it's really at in the Rebuild movies. I can't wait to see what the final movie will be like.

Honestly, in a lot of areas, I like rebuild more than I do the first series. Mostly because it was doing its own thing, it would have been a waste of time just remaking the series in HD and I probably would have skipped it entirely if it was.

I still have no idea what the fuck happened in 3.33. That's like Evangelion before the director's cut episode levels of "I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING"

I really think 3.33 had a rewrite at some point. Though that's just me guessing, things seem off, the plot really doesn't connect well with 2.22 and there are entire scenes missing from certain sections and promotion.

Hey thanks man. I'm in a much better state now then I was then (family, self understanding, and actually knowing what is wrong with me helped a long way), but I still get relapses of depression time to time.

If I need something to say or talk about, it's nice to have a place like this with other people that understand where I'm coming from. In this day and age it is unsettling whenever I come across the groups or people who don't consider depression as a clinical condition, or hear people say that things like Asberger's and ADHD are made up.

Does anyone have tips about how to git gud at Bayo 2's combat, what weapon combos I should be using and all that?
Click to expand...

Bat Within is a must skill. Save up for that parry accessory (the one that cost 200,000 halos) and git gud at witch time and dodge offset. My weapon loadouts so far are

1.gun hands/sword feet
2.scythe/the red and blue weapon things (I forgot their name)

One's a faster loadout and the other is a slower loadout with bigger range. Use the one that fits the situation best. You can go with almost any loadout tbh though.

I also like the uppercut skills (the one's where you jump then hit the kick or punch button to hit enemies higher into the air). You can keep chaining those to maximize damage and keep the combo going. Also, PKP is a short, quick, damaging combo.
