I can't tell if Mr. Truth is trolling or if he just can't understand English to the point where no coherent conversation can be had, so I'll go back to the last point of interest I saw.

Also weird question, but does Elma happen to have a Self-Damaging mechanic, because I think I remember something about her having something like that

She has one Art (I believe it's called Thirsty Edge) that boosts a stat in exchange for halving your health or something. I don't think it would be added to an Elma moveset since it would be a bit much when combined with more important Xenoblade Chronicles X mechanics like Overdrive and Soul Voices.

EDIT: lol nope. Not Thirsty Edge. Thirsty Edge is a healing Art. I'm gonna keep looking for it.
EDIT EDIT: Found it. It's called Blood Sacrifice, and it halves your HP in exchange for 1000 TP. I'd imagine it also wouldn't be included since it's called Blood Sacrifice, though a comeback mechanic that you could manually hurt yourself to charge quicker might be interesting.

Pretty sure it's the latter.

Seems to know enough to speak basic stuff, at least.

It's basically like whenever my sister speaks English (yep, it ain't my first language either :p).

Okay honestly that one is kinda sus.

If we had to work through basics like "where are you from," how on earth did you honestly know that slang and obtuse word filled sentence was something worth apologizing for?

Oh by the way, did you guys talk about the Massive DMCA Nintendo just did of Fangames, including SSF2 and SSB Crusade

github.com

dmca/2020/2020-12-29-nintendo.md at main · gamejolt/dmca

In the spirit of transparency, we publish all DMCA takedown notices we receive here. This does not mean that any users were guilty--only that we've received the notice. You can read more about ...

hey uh, don't worry about that!

Crusade got affected in the past, but the project itself is fine since this is Nintendo going after GameJolt. This isn't the first time Nintendo (and few other companies like Warner Bros.) went after GameJolt.
GameJolt doesn't have a strict policy when it comes to adding fangames on a platform that has ad revenue on its launcher, and its more surprsing they have done nothing about it after 3-4 years since the first time Nintendo struck them.

plus SSF2 isn't on that list, but knowing this fanbase, people will go along with thrown around blurbs as gospel without double checking.

that said:
https://github.com/gamejolt/dmca/blob/main/2016/2016-09-02-nintendo.md <- first ever DMCA and Nintendo DMCA they had back from 2016
https://github.com/gamejolt/dmca/ <-other DMCAs they had (including Warner Bros) which is pretty yearly.
https://github.com/gamejolt/dmca/blob/main/2020/2020-12-29-nintendo.md <-most recent one they had for Nintendo

and Nintendo LD's reasoning:
"The web site at gamejolt.com generates revenue from advertising banners displayed on the site and advertisements played while users wait for the games to load."

Crusade's been around longer than OoT2D and as long as all those pornographic Playshapes flash games did, and Smash fan games barely make any competition since the "core" and "hardcore" consumer base is pretty dismissive on anything they personally deem not serious especially with the C&D kryponite that is Goku in both popular titles. So don't fret about this.

Ironically, the Full Metal Jaguire's healing Art is what came to mind. lol

Does Shadowrunner allow you to play jedi mind tricks on enemies? :smirk:

No, but I think that one makes you backstab harder.

What mii costumes should Elma bring?

Ga Jiarg who should have been playable is one that should definitely be added.
Some skells would be neat, too. Would be neat if they made them into human armor as well like they did with the Verus for that one decal.

Maybe a Kosmos mii costume could work for a gunner.

Well fun fact. If you use Shadowrunner outside of combat before enemies initiate with you, enemies can't target you and thus can't initiate combat with you. To use Shadowrunner right away, use Blood Sacrifice first, then Shadowrunner. If you have Blood Sacrifice and Shadowrunner levelled up enough and have armor that helps with repeating Blood Sacrifice and Shadowrunner, you can make sure you never get attacked.

I know this is a real trick cause I used it to get through alot of enemy infested areas for all the landmarks and deposits, the area I most notably remember doing it at was one of the areas at the edges of Oblivia, that had alot of giant robots and turrets. As you would kinda guess, at some points, I would say when going by enemies, "These aren't the BLADES you're looking for." and was made even funnier when I had my characters in swimsuits and such at one point.

I'm excited to see the next Xenoblade but good god I pray for better art direction with the main characters. Monolith helps Nintendo in open-world and location development, as it is their strength... Nintendo should return the favour and help them in character design.

And I'm also not really looking forward to the protag being discussed ad infinitum and considered a lock for the future, only to likely be replaced by an even newer protag by the time the next Smash is a thing.

Of course I'll have been taken to a "nice farm upstate" to "live with all the other cynics" long before then.

Well, I wouldn't know what to say about the Miis suits Xenoblade Chronicles X is the only Xenoblade that I haven't played.
