I'm not usually one to complain about "muh censorship"

but I've been replaying Gaiden and I'm really worried that Saber's recruitment will get changed in some way for Echoes

The bloody GX comment section in a nutshell.

"Haha weaboos suck because their precious dual audio isn't happening. Then you aren't a real American, creepy body pillow huggers with your stupid anime avatars."

And I though we were already past this **** with Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE.
Isn't dual audio at least partly hard to implement because of copyright reasons, or did I misunderstand that when the topic came up at one point?

People on both sides are ridiculous with their bizarre personal attacks. The anti-localization people with the No True Scotsman crud saying if you buy the game localized by the company then you aren't a real fan and the pro-localization people with. . .whatever on Bionis that mess is. Which is also No True Scotsman crud in a whole other way.

At any rate, a REAL weeaboo would stick it out with the Japanese system settings. Wouldn't want the American text localization getting in the way of the original and intended experience and vision either. :p

*EDIT* Whoops that's No True Scotsman too. Well if everyone else is doing it. . .:awesome:

Ture. People will find any attempt to attack "whiners" just to make them feel good or "truly American". I doubt things would be as nice if a TMS sequel were revealed one day 9which is unlikely given Wii U sales).

The No True Scotsman fallacy is truly the best case of ad hominem for most gamers today, console gamers or cultural fanatics.

What made it feel unfinished to you?
the game has no real ending, when you wrap up the last boss you need to do the game just sort of ends, it is completely anti climactic. half the game is levels borrowed over from Origins, and there are less original levels than there were in Origins. Legends also just lacks any of the charm or atmosphere that was present in Origins. The level variety isn't as big as in Origins, and nothing is contextualized for the player like how it is in Origins, it's lazy. For a game that was delayed twice, it sure feels half baked.

Got the OG quartet in Dragon Quest 8. So far the game isn't much different except for no random battles and everyone having voiced dialogue.

Soft resetting for starters in Sun and Moon is a nightmare. So much cutscene.

Looks like my Incineroar is gonna be 'fast' cos I cbf anymore.

At least my Araquanid will had an appropriate nature for Liqiudation spam. Bring on the Battle Tree! Fourth SuMo playthrough coming up! Going for 100% completion!

Oh man. . .actually looking at that GameXplain comment section. . .yeah that's a good mix of angry otakus not knowing how to take a compromise and angry 'Murica dudebros gloating at them.

Honestly, the fact that you can switch languages at all on any copy should be counted as a win rather than a loss, or at least a compromise, and then there's the lack of region locking. Look how far you guys brought this. You should be patting yourselves on the back, not being upset that every single thing didn't click into place at once. One thing wrong isn't the end of the world, and it certainly isn't worth cancelling preorders and spouting profane insults over.

On the other hand, 'Murica isn't being any better. Yes, people are being unreasonably upset about things that never even had voice acting or a voice option like that in the first place. That's not an excuse for attacking their hobbies as a whole and especially not them personally, and it makes you look like just as much of a child as they do by doing so.

Honestly, someone should just go grab a paddle and start going after that entire comment section regardless of their allegiances.

It's just the East vs West thing.

Not weebs vs dudebros again.


It's pretty much the cartoon vs anime thing or really just subs vs dubs which is wayyyyyyyyyyyy more toxic.

That's good to know, probably that is the method used by true GTS bros that put Shiny Japanese 6IV Ditto with cool items and ask for common mon; they get a JPN Ditto, alter its stats to perfection, clone it and then to the GTS.
Im trying my luck to get one of those.
That's what I did. Got a Japanese Ditto, made it perfect, cloned it, and changed it's natures to all natures

Apparently the Switch is doing phenomenal in Japan.

Encouraging but does it mean much?

One thing I haven't seen being mentioned much here about FE Echoes is that Japan gets it one month before everyone else
Still not a worldwide release but it's good to see they're taking steps forward after the wait for Fates had made me forget it even existed
Gamexplain has the first 12 minutes of Specter Knight's campaign on Switch up!
I'm not watching it, I won't be able to contain my hype if I did.
But do we have a release date yet?

Well we don't know how many units are ordered, just that it's sold out right?
Might be just the same thing that happened with NA being sold out


Plus it's a handheld with Splatoon so I wouldn't really expect it to do "badly" in Japan or at least not now

No, really, let's look at some of this mess. This is some of the top voted comments, mind you. I'm replacing profanity with [Redacted] for a cleaner viewing experience. This isn't even getting into the mess of the comments of the comments where it devolves into arguments.

[Redacted] you Nintendo, you suck. The English dub is a piece of [Redacted]. Zelda's voice sounds stupid as hell.
[Redacted] you, Eiji.
Seriously, [Redacted] you.

Looking down and the comments; everyone who uses the word "weeb" or "weeaboo" don't even know what the word means.
[Redacted] this wanna be japanese nerds they act like Anime is real life
Time to cancel my Switch & Zelda preorder
I can hear all the weeaboos crying right now. XD
Voice acting is a mistake, it's nothing but trash.

Still not surprised because

1. People are are almost always toxic in YT comment sections, especially if the video topic is in the slightest bit of controversial.
2. It's the Zelda fandom, of course one factor of the game is going to ruin the whole thing for many.
3. Especially if it involves adding voice acting.
4. Just wait until people actually get their hands on the game and see what they say. :p

So is this meant to encourage you to explore, and the game will give you an inferior ending if you don't do certain things?

Eh. I've seen worse. This is from YouTube, right?
Yeah, I saw some other people on here commenting on it and went to check the damage.

It's. . .damage alright.

Not that it isn't typical of Youtube, but it is pretty silly of all parties involved.

It's doing what's its intended to do.


Dominate in a dead console market.

It actually is pretty dead in Japan since they focus on handhelds and mobile devices for gaming there and PS4 just NOW barely outsold the Wii U.

A realm of scum and villainy unparalleled in this galaxy.

It'd be cool if Princess Medea became a party member in like a post game for DQ8, but I don't think that's a thing.

I would ask how people even manage to be that unintelligent, but I have Not Always Right open on another tab and it's pretty obvious that people are just as dense offline as they are online.

Well, that and the fact that I've seen multiple graffiti'd garage doors now, in completely different areas. Not normal graffiti, either, just whatever the kid of each incident thought would serve as a sufficiently naughty word. And the first time it actually was profanity, but the second time it was such a grade school term they spelled out in letters for what people usually draw pictures of to be offensive that it crossed the line from being irritating to just plain sad.

So someone graffitied the word penis instead of drawing one?

I'm a little livid right now.

Our new RA isn't very popular for multiple reasosns. Some deserved. Some undeserved.

We had a meeting last night and... it was not very good. The RA made several mistakes.

Still today people founds ***** drawn on some of his posters. I'm rather angry.

I won't stand for this bullying.

Wait, they just draw the word? That's not that bad. Usually they draw the thing/action. :p Especially in the more uncleaned areas over hear.(Whether it be bathrooms, desks, or locker rooms. Though in the case of desks it's usually a message to insult you.)

Yup, that's exactly what happened.

There's just a certain realization of "Wow, how young of a kid do you have to be to actually do that?" to seeing that of all things on some random garage door.

We interupt this Zelda discussion to bring you....another Zelda discussion...
Aonuma and Miyamoto talk about some of their favourite features in the new Zelda...
Interesting to learn that horses and other animals took FOUR YEARS of development...inb4 BotW was delayed because of a squirrel...

Also I very much agree with Aonuma's last point....:p
