The one who has her stage in the background.:4bayonetta2:
Might as well do the full list, like others:

  1. :4mewtwo:
  2. :4cloud:
  3. :4ryu:
  4. :4lucas:
  5. :4feroy:
  6. :4corrin: & :4bayonetta:*

* Unlike during my "salt phase" (which I deeply regret), I have accepted their inclusion and don't dislike them anymore, but ultimately they're still my least favorite DLC characters.

I imagine you're referring to Cloud being confirmed for possible Edgelord?

(tobehonestithinkiknowwhatyouactuallymeanandifsoiunderstand)

And from what I know, Fairy Tail is pretty well known. I haven't personally watched it, but I'd go for it.
****lord begins with an S. It's a well-known term among hardcore Western FE fans and refers to Roy due to his role in FE6, in which his character is considered flat and his poor base stats and growths

So The Go update apparently has also reset some players levels.
OK, the update in general has been really stupid, but this? This is by far the stupidest thing yet. Why reset levels? Unless the players' levels were reached in some illegitimate way, there is absolutely no good reason to do that.

Oh yeah; I kept hearing that Roy's stats weren't very good in that game and some people questioned his inclusion in Smash over other FE6 characters for that reason. And I've heard of the term itself on occasion (not often though). In general, I've often heard Edgelord (despite obviously not being a censored word and having a different definition) be used more then the one that starts with S.

I think you mean Sigurd/Seliph or Leif/Leaf instead of other FE6 characters. Seliph might have been a better choice despite more similarities to Marth due to his popularity in Japan

Roy is no more bland than Eliwood or Chrom or any other generic protag. Most of the hate probably comes from the old garbage FE6 translation which was written like it was made for 2 year olds.

Roy's stats aren't a problem either because he is pretty much a balanced unit. It's his late AF promotion that is a problem.

Yeah there are no other available characters for FE6.

FE in general maybe, but definitely not FE6

Though Roy's stats could get boosted by items so that problem can be worked around, it's just a hassle

Uh...

Yeah, it is.

Especially in FE.
Not really. The low growths mean that unless Roy's grinded or given a butt load of stat items, he'll most likely deal a low to meh amount of damage, get countered by it which hurts a lot, and only strike once. There's also his low Res and Sword-lock. An alright Skill stat doesn't hurt though. Hell, on higher difficulties, Roy needs to be protected as Bolting spammers can OHKO him
Yeah but and the rest of the Roy hate squad don't **** on Eliwood/Chrom/etc every chance you get.


Good to know the Hero class is useless for all future playthroughs.

Oh wait
Eliwood's overshadowed by Lyn and Hector, and the anniversary for Robin's trailer has been known as 'National Pick on Chrom day'. Not to mention Roy's the one in Smash and potentially caused hype backlash for his own game
Heros have high stats and growths. That makes them work

OK so I actually tried the new Pokémon GO update for myself.

As expected, it's impossible to actually hunt for a Pokémon.

However, what really bothered me is that it seems like it's harder to actually catch Pokémon when they show up. The first Pokémon I ran into was a Drowzee, with a green ring (indicating an "easy" catch). So I threw a Pokéball at it, and it broke out instantly, and fleed...OK. Managed to catch a few random Pokémon but nothing new, though I did get another Eevee, and hatched two Jigglypuffs today. But yeah, I've had to throw Pokéballs multiple times because they kept breaking free, and sometimes running away.

So yeah the game is just really hard to play now. Though I can confirm Power-Saving Mode is still there on Android. My brother checked his iPhone and said it was gone though, so yeah, they removed it on iOS.

Yeah, apparently catch rates were altered and the "nice!", "excellent!" thing was outright removed.

Nintendo Logic:

We're going to release this new and totally inspiring real world Pokemon game where you can catch the Gen 1 Pokemon and catch em all for the first time ever!

1 Month Or So Later...

After getting maximum profit and making sure we're back on track in the global market, we'll ask Niantic to remove the features such as Pokevision and easy, great, and excellent XP bonuses that made this game great and abandon them, making us have all the profit! Wahahahahaha! :4wario2:

(Seriously though, what happened?)

Will this actually work? I may not care about Go, but demanding refunds on microtransactions sounds bad. Especially when they were BEFORE the update
It does work, because Google Play/Apple handles the process.

And it isn't bad. People buy items in preparation for use in the future, not necessarily all at once. If you bought items with plans to continue playing, but this sudden update has made the game completely dissatisfying for you, that's a perfectly valid excuse to ask for a refund.

But imagine I spent 20 bucks on Go, spent all the items BEFORE the update, and demand a refund, would that be considered valid?

Yeah, because the game is no longer as it was advertised when you spent money on it.

Google/Apple also can't remove items from you for a refund anyway, because they don't make the game.

FE personality discussion made me think to look up Robin's supports. Remembered this one.

https://serenesforest.net/wiki/index.php/Awakening_Supports/Avatar(F)_Cherche

I'm not sure what's funnier, the fact that this is basically internet dating or the fact that I found out at a later time that (for humans) people ACTUALLY DID THIS IN REAL LIFE IN MEDIEVAL TIMES.

No photography invented? Just make oil paintings of the potential suitors and send them to who's seeking one!

I mean, the icing on the cake is that it's a wyvern, but when I found that detail out I was kind of floored.

I have a hard time seeing this failing sales expectations. Nostalgia sells and the NES is definitely that, has a surprisingly AMAZING game line up, it's during the holiday season, and more than half the price compared to buying them all off the Wii/Wii U's Virtual Console. Even Microsoft's Phil Spencer is planning to buy one.

Though I think Nintendo will move on to SNES after this.
I agree it has an amazing game line up.

The NES games I actually owned were Super Mario Bros., Duck Hunt, World Class Track Meet, Mickey Mousecapade, Castlevania, Rad Racer, Snake Rattle 'n Roll, Donkey Kong, Friday the 13th, Super Mario Bros. 3, Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle, Major League Baseball, and Defender II.

Of course the 10 year old me (circa 1993) would be very happy with all these 30 games in the NES Classic Edition... especially all three Mario games (then again, that's what Super Mario All-Stars was for :awesome:) plus many other NES games I've played but never owned and other games I've read about in GamePro, Electronic Gaming Monthly, and especially Nintendo Power but never played.

I've never owned an NES (my twin did buy one himself recently though) but this will be the next best thing for me. Can't wait for it.

Also,

7,000th POST!!!



I just love being on this forums and I'm going to keep on trucking.

It's either a glitch, or what you said might be the case. Although spoofers have been permanently banned from the game, so I think it's a glitch, a terrible one at that. Thankfully I am unaffected.

When I used poke radar, it said it was getting it's source from pokevision
Is the same one as this? Mine doesn't say anything about it.

the next Pokemon GO update removes everything left, and only shows the logo when you start it up

the update after that makes the app brick your device

Anyway, here's a question. What is your favorite thing to watch/read while eating a good meal?

I'm not getting the bonuses for "Nice!" throws and what not. It still says when I get a throw of that kind, but I don't get the bonus XP.
