Some kind of weird thing with superman as red and blue orbs with the red orbs having the new 52 appearance and memories and the blue orbs having the old superman memories, etc.

And they fused together creating some kind of weird new superman

I ain't paying for online because:
A) I couldn't even if I wanted
B) It's gonna be way more expensive to me

Though if MarioXRabbids being rated here means anything, it probably means Nintendo is coming back to Brazil so maybe the online will be more accessible to me.

Question:

When did the official favorite character poll first pop up for Awakening and Fates? How many months did that poll come up after their respective games' release, and how long did it take for the official popularity results to be announced.

The reason I'm asking is because I want to get an idea when will Nintendo release the official favorite character poll for Echoes, assuming it even happens.

It may take sometime tbh, I don't remember seeing the Fates poll before the Western release and that was an 8-month difference
Could me misremembering it though.

I decided to start watching RWBY and binged through volume 1.

I like some of the characters, I don't like others. Some of the jokes landed, while others didn't.
The animation is great during action scenes, but very stiff and awkward during everything else. Though I won't lie, it does give the show a bit of charm.

So far I give it a solid okay.

The show has a slow pace.
A very slow pace.
As in, 4 Volumes complete and it doesn't seem like we're even halfway through.
Animation slowly gets better with the time though, and there's no more stupid arcs like a "bully problem" one from the first.

So I found out the Captain Underpants movie isn't coming out in my country

This is what you get for... for, uhm... well, I bet you guys did something bad!

When do I get it though?
>Supposedly released yesterday
WHAT?
>Actually only coming out on October
This is Kubo all over again

I used to use "a bundle of sticks" a lot, was probably my most used word for a year or two. Always defended LGBT and was ecstatic about any progress made, but still I insisted on using that slur, told myself when I said it, it meant "********."

Looking back, I really hate how I was as a teen. Always trying to be the edgiest jack *** around (thankfully failing at it since peers still deemed me the nicest in the school), but amongst my friends, the group that I hate being around now, I was a toxic piece of ****. Makes me wonder what it'd be like if I actually embraced the real "me" rather than some fabrication. Maybe I'd already be on HRT with a body I'm more comfortable with instead of just dreaming about it and growing complacent.

edit: I got myself depressed again. Probably going to be contemplating this for the next few days, as usual.

Ha, I'm pretty sure almost everyone has gone through that phase
I know I did at least. Everytime I remember how I was makes me wish I could go back in time and punch myself in the face.

We get it in October too. Eh, Homecoming's at least out on the 6th June

 

[Schnee117]

I like some of the characters

Which ones?
inb4 Pyrrha

Also be sure to watch the Colour Trailers and the V4 Character short.

A tiny bit of spoiler alert, things gets dark in Volume 4, but it had improvement on the CGI graphics.

Volume 3 was darker.
V4 still had dark moments but it never got as dark as V3 did.

They have about 9 volumes planned and Monty had enough material to cover 20 Volumes before he died. It varies between all the crew members.

Dear God, I hope they don't go as far as 20 Volumes
9 would be enough

Yup. Had to look it up
9 still sounds like too much imo. 20 volumes just means Beserk would finish before RWBY

lol rip. oh, I mean Why?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

lol rip. oh, I mean Why?

Probably because the books don't really sell in the Netherlands, though it's a Dreamworks movie so it's coming at the very least in a few months

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

The best part of the NBA Finals are not the games, but the dank stuff it comes from it.

Warriors in 6, I guess.

Ok, I need to find where this came from... was that a little child?

 

[Kirby Dragons]

I finished Moon, completing the run without using any Z-Moves. Initially, I just forgot about them, but once I remembered them, I realized I didn't need them.

Spoiler: Kukui Battle

It started off undeniably easy. Lycanroc died to a single Earth Power from King of Sand, and Ninetales died to a single Rock Slide from Half Health, dodging its Blizzard with friendship.

Then came . I switched to White Thing and used First Impression. Snorlax Body Slammed and paralyzed, also activating the First Impression. I went Tonfa Arms and got off some Iron Defenses while Kukui switched to Braviary. I tried Work Up, but Braviary used Whirlwind and forced out AK Snow Crab, who died to a single Brave Bird.

With Yun Yang, I continued to let Braviary use Brave Bird and take recoil damage, as I healed. When Yun Yang fainted, I switched to White Thing, healing it fully and letting it take a Brave Bird for more recoil. With First Impression, I switched to Half Health and finished Braviary with Rock Slide.

Having Full Restored White Thing, I switched to it for Snorlax again. The First Impression managed to defeat Snorlax. For Decidueye, I had planned on using AK Snow Crab for Decidueye all along, but AK Snow Crab fainted to a single Brave Bird.

I went to Yun Yang and used Yawn. Decidueye Bloom Doomed on Yun Yang. I healed fully, but Decidueye had Leaf Blade, and of course got a crit, defeating Yun Yang. Decidueye fell asleep, letting me finish it with King of Sand's Shadow Ball.

Magnezone came in. Its Flash Cannon kept cutting King of Sand's health in half. Magnezone survived Earth Power using Sturdy, and Kukui and I healed on the same turn. It went on like this until Kukui stopped healing. I left Magnezone on 1 health, and let the Flash Cannon beat King of Sand. I threw out White Thing and planned on using First Impression, but Stealth Rock activated its ability and made me switch to Tonfa Arms. I won the battle using Clanging Scales.

I also caught Tapu Koko in an Ultra Ball.

This is my final team.

King of Sand (Level 61)

Yun Yang (Level 57)

White Thing (Level 58)

AK Snow Crab (Level 55)

Half Health (Level 56)

Tonfa Arms (Level 52)

Volume 3 was darker.

Don't get me started on what happened at the end...

And about the Splatoon headphone, I obviously like the design, but how the voice chat work is just a total disaster.
I saw a Twitter user post a more simple double audio plug as a part-solution, but some say that it won't work.

Well I guess that's what people meant when they said they crashed Disgaea 5, LOL.

I guess the game didn't like me trying to mix the Raised Flag boosts in with my level grinding strategy.

. . .Time to go try it again.

oh yeah, Mine used to crash a lot,now it barely crashes at all. It didnt bother me though, I had auto save on and I save manualy after everything

Anf the game boots up super fast too. glad to see it isnt only the Japanese version that did that

that plug is far to short, you would need your Switch in your hands and your phone hanging in the air

 

[allison]

I like Nintendo a lot but I'm not going to pretend to be excited to pay them $20 a year so I can call people on the phone

I heard they patched out a ton of the crashes at one point. This is my first time.

Can't be too mad, though. That's how you know the game's got hardcore numbers.

NUMBERS

 

[Aetheri]

Because that's all the paid online service will provide, right?

 

[mario123007]

Then you'll have to find longer ones then, which might be hard to find. And again, whether it will work is still unknown. Perhaps you can just buy a short and cheap one as a test first.

 

[Coricus]

Yeah, honestly I just kind of ignore that the phone thing exists at this point, LOL. It's irrelevant to me on multiple levels.

For me that $20 is a year of online gaming and a couple of free games to try. I love the heck out of Splatoon and it doesn't have voice chat, Splatoon 2 won't suffer in my eyes from some optional thing I can't use, wouldn't use, and don't need to use.

Im not even gonna use voice chat so I dont have a reason to complain about that

Nintendo has that announced Twintelle will be playable in this weekend's Global Testpunch.

No Kid Cobra or Byte & Barq though.

 

[Schnee117]

I can't wait for the new IP "God of W"

In all seriousness they'd better show God of War footage that actually looks like a God of War title though

 

[Coricus]

I think they said she was added due to popular demand.

I'd believe it, TBH. Those two got buried hard and Twintelle is more popular than most of the current roster.

Is the Superman currently in Rebirth the old superman from before new 52?

The one that was killed by Doomsday in the 90's and stuff?

Edit: I've been trying to catch up, but I'm only to October 2016

Yep, pretty much, he, Lois, and Jon went to the New 52 Earth after Convergence after they found out that they couldn't get back home.

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Which ones?
inb4 Pyrrha

I like Ruby, Yang, that one coffee guy, and Pyrrha. I think Blake is alright, not a fan of Weiss though.

Pretty much in the same boat....I do understand the importance it holds for some for multiplayer games but as someone who mostly plays single player games its not really a big deal for me...

I'm still taking a wait and see approach with Nintendo's online but so far its cheap AF with a free game every month, so I don't have too much of a problem with it so far...my experiences with the Switch's online so far from MK8D and the Arms Testpunch have generally been pretty smooth with only a few disconnects here and there (only once during the Testpunch), I expect things to improve over the next several months as well...

But as I said we'll see...

 

[Aurane]

And who's paying specifically for that anyways? Not me anyways. If I need VC, I can get that for free on Discord.

...not that I use Discord anyways.

 

[Schnee117]

that one coffee guy

Oobleck? Yeah I like him for essentially being the VA's RvB character but smart and hyperactive.

Pyrrha.

Called it, almost everyone likes Pyrrha.

not a fan of Weiss though.

She's one of those "Like her or hate her" characters. I actually initially didn't like her until I rewatched a few times.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

not a fan of Weiss though.

But why can't they get back to their Earth? Did something happen to their Earth that made it uninhabitable or inaccessible (cut off from the multiverse)?

 

[ChikoLad]

I think people need to understand that when myself and others complain about or criticise Nintendo's decisions or practices (and in my case, any other companies), it is not necessarily because it is to our personal dissatisfaction (and when it is just that I state so, like my opinions on ARMS...yet people still try to convince me to buy it or get riled up, lol).

Personally speaking, the headset and the online fees aren't a big deal and don't effect me either. I never really use the headsets on other systems and while I think the online service could be a bit better for the cost, it's not completely ridiculous or anything and I'm mostly fine with it. I just need one or two more online games that I know I'll play for the Switch and need to know how their infrastructure is, and then I would be fine with paying the fee even if it's not the most spectacular subscription service.

But you can't sit there and look at how voice chat works on the Switch and think "yes, this is completely fine, normal, and acceptable". "I'd never use it anyway" is not a defense for it. If anything, not having plans to use voice chat regardless gives you LESS reason to defend how Nintendo is handling it because it's not benefiting you regardless of how it is. When Nintendo makes a decision that is obviously only going to negatively effect those who want to use said feature, there is no reason to defend it. Even if you don't plan to use it, you should be willing to at least be critical and understanding of why it's an issue, rather than trying to pull some mental gymnastics to defend Nintendo (and as I've said before, defending or feeling bad for a company is a ludicrous position to take in and of itself). If anything, if you are so attached to company and "want to see them do well", you should be more willing to speak up when they mess up so they improve which is just better for everybody.

TL;DR

There was a problem fetching the tweet

As for the online service fees, there really isn't a huge controversy to be had there. Some people will be fine with it (those who only play Nintendo games and intend to play lots of Splatoon 2 and Mario Kart and what not going forward), some people will be less satisfied with it (people who don't have as many online games they are interested in but still have that one game they might want to play every so often and would like better perks in the subscription to justify it). This one really just depends on your life situation. Don't just assume everyone who's dissatisfied with the online service is hating on Nintendo. They're just making they're voice heard so Nintendo can eventually add to it (and I think they will anyway, but you wouldn't rest on your own laurels, so don't rest on a corporation's either :V).

I don't know about others but whenever I say 'I wouldn't use it anyways' I'm quite literally speaking for myself...as I mentioned previously I do understand the importance it has for others...but I'm trying to look at the bigger picture as well...

I always try to understand why certain decisions are made regarding how a company does things, especially for Nintendo...

With regards to the voice chat, first off all its a feature I have very little experience with in general so regardless my feedback serves very little value for how it can be improved upon especially since I'm likely not going to be using the feature much to begin with, second while I agree that it could've been handled much better I still want to wait and see how it actually works before jumping to conclusions...

Though I do agree it is very unhealthy to just blindly agree with everything just because of bias...

You have to make your opponent KO you. Just SD'ing won't work.

 

[Deleted member]

I really like Celica's map theme on Act 4, With Mila's Divine Protection is still catchier but this one is just more fitting. Same goes for the overworld map theme from Act 4.

Trying to grind Sonya so she can at least promote, I know now she isn't getting Entrap much less Rewarp but I'm really liking her character and I wanna use her. Gave her the Magic Ring for 4 RANGE EXCALIBUR.
Do you get any other Magic Rings in the main story though?

>Witches start spawning on Alm's side
Oh boy, I guess it's just better to finish one side first to stop the reinforcements there and have the other fight every map against 2 armies. Otherwise you'll just keep fighting on random skirmishes.

Does the Silver Sword have any good skills or should I just turn my last one into a Brave Sword?
