So.

What's a character you like that you consider a guilty pleasure?
Weird, I can think of shows or games as such, but I can't really call a character a guilty pleasure.

I thought people liked Gwen Stacy.
People forget she started out as major douche (especially to Peter) and only liked her in hindsight because she died. Kind of like Jason Todd after he became the Red Hood, I think people like the idea of the character rather than the character themselves.

Part of that had to deal with the fact fans liked Mary Jane alot more, that's why she's Peter's main chick. And when's she's handled properly, she bounces off of Peter well since she's also a kind of joker.

Black Cat's cool as ****, but most comics are too cowardly to let two superheroes hook up for a loooooong time outside of Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Woman.

If only they did anything with f zero. A shame they haven’t really made anything out of it years, but at least falcon is a smash staple now.
It was mentioned before, but Miyamoto not wanting to work on one unless it had some new control gimmick still irks me. It's hardly the type of franchise that churns out sequels, so showing up occasionally, and making new, engaging racetracks should be enough. And maybe introduce a few new characters here and there.

But Torna: The Golden Country for Xenoblade 2 was practically an entirely new game and before it was sold separately, it costed $29.99 with all the expansion pass bonuses, so I'm just left with more questions. I get it, they like money - you know what would secure them a steady flow of money? Not doing asinine things like having terrible mapping for the controls, guilt trip people and mark a steep price point.
I mean I can't really blame them for the docked controls. The core gameplay is designed in such a way that there's no real way to fix it unless they remake the whole thing from scratch, which isn't really feasible option with a niche game like this. It was either this or make the game handheld only, which would've also gotten complaints.

That or just put it on the 3DS, which would've been perfect. Except for the loud crowd who port beg for everything, double so when something shows up on 3DS and not Switch.

Agreed on the price though, $40 would've been fine. That's same price as physical Torna.

Here's a topic:

Most wanted remake for any console?
Startropics remade in the current era. Just thinking of what Startropics would look like 25-30 years later amazes me with it's potential. It could be a Megaman Legends-esque game with some of the classic 3D Zelda elements that were thrown away with BoTW.

If it meant we would finally get a new Advance Wars however, i'd remake Famicom/Super Famicom Wars on mobile being that those are the easiest installments to have on that platform. Which would hopefully lead to a new AW on the Switch.

The only problem there being that I don't think the world in 2018 would take too kindly to a Hitler parody lol (Hetler from Super Famicom Wars).

Verg's back at it again, but with Marvel vs Capcom news, saying MVCI gets rebranded as MVC4 and adds some of the other planned characters like the MVC3 X-Men, Green Goblin, Lady from DMC and some others.

I don't believe it, mostly because if I do I'll be feel nothing but PROFOUND SADNESS when it turns out to not be real.

It's pretty sad Superman hasn't gotten a worthwhile game yet that isn't a big DC crossover.

Now I do like Superman, but **** him.

The world NEEDS a good game for The Flash. Daredevil too, if we're talking Marvel.

The Jugdral and Tellius FE games for Switch, because more people need to experience these games, and in the former case they need to be brought up to date and get some quality-of-life improvements. And Thracia 776 needs to be made to be not full of bull****.

Also Etrian Odyssey 3 Untold, ideally for 3DS, but if it happens at this point it'll be on Switch. The original was never released here so I'd have to import it if I want to play it, but that's too expensive, and I want to actually support the series instead of just pirating it.

More solo superhero games would be great in general.

I only singled out Superman since you'd think he'd have something worthwhile by now seeing as how... He's Superman.

But I'd love a Flash game, Daredevil too. And we need another Hulk game in the vein of Ultimate Destruction.
You guys are mispelling Trigger, I don't know how ya'll can be so dumb
Seems you're pretty cross about it.

Speaking of this. If you had to choose to make a game better, which game would it be? For me it'd be spore, spore's concept has a ton of potential and I still even enjoy the game. But it definitely has its faults and missed potential. Even mods(I have many installed) make it a lot better.


Did he stop? That's the real question.
Yeah, sometimes. It's just now he's denying that I have evidence of me standing(which I've shown him a ton of pics of me) when he hasn't even shown me a single pic of him. Like, more than his arm anyway.

Hi peeps. How is everyone?
Pretty sweet.

Still haven't scratched my creators itch (days old now) but I can't exactly VR my way through my shift and I finally have a project in mind, so I believe tonight's the night. That's heartening ****.

Seems you're pretty cross about it.
Probably closer to triggered.

I imagine a Daredevil game would likely have combat that's similar, but not exactly like Spider-Man 2/Spider-Man PS4/Arkham. Radar Sense could be busted for solving issues much like Detective Mode though.

The real interesting part is how they potentially handle the Lawyer aspects of Matt's life. The New Spider-Man game let's Peter build Gadets, and other games usually have Daily Bugle missions. I guess either the L.A Noire approach or Ace Attorney approach for being a Lawyer could work. If I mentioned this before, than my bad.

I feel like I want to write some fanfic but all I can come up with are these random scenarios that get stuck in my head for months at a time.

The Inkling stood at the end of the hallway, stretching her stiffened arms and legs into as intimidating a posture as someone her height could manage and twisting her grimace of nervousness into a rather unconvincing slasher smile. She was visibly quivering in fear, but in her current posture she could at least play it off as shaking from an overload of raw power, right? All the crazy things running around right now, they had no idea what she could be capable of. She could do anything, be anything, and they'd have no way of knowing. Heheheh. . .time to turn the tables on these suckers, then.

"HAHAHAHAH! You think you've got me backed into a corner here, don't you?! You haven't even seen my TRUE form!

GRR...RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-"

As she twisted one hand into a skyward clawing motion, the other rather conspicuously dropped a Splat Bomb onto the floor for a split second before immediately rushing up to match it. Her pursuers recoiled backwards slightly. . .more out of confusion and the sheer volume of the screaming than anything, but it did happen. With that in mind, the noise was just enough distraction to take attention off of the bomb, which proceeded to explode harmlessly but even more loudly amidst the rest of it.

The small crowd actually did lose eye contact with her for a moment, her attempt at escape being timed precisely at the explosion of the bomb. Unfortunately she hadn't quite thought through how far she'd need to move to make a clean getaway, and her badly calculated attempt at a ninja escape managed to lose it's element of surprise right about when she reached the outside of the air duct she'd made a break for. Her "true form" revealed itself to be slinking rather pathetically over the last stretch, an expression of rapidly increasing embarrassment spread across her eyes as the room went silent.

"Is that. . .a squid?" Said one person quietly.

No longer bothering to hide her panic, she wriggled over the last stretch and hauled herself up and into the duct, her body flowing between the holes in the grate in an inky mass. Loud thumping and muffled blast sounds could be heard from outside as she desperately hauled herself up and through the ventilation system. All the while no one particularly made any move to stop her. Each and every person just stood in shock, trying to register what on earth even just happened. This went on for some time, the thumping sounds far more distant by the time anyone dared to speak up.

". . .I think it just escaped." Someone muttered.

I never play in the casino. I just get enough money that I can just buy what I want straight up,
Oh believe me, I have enough money. But one of the PlayStation trophies involves getting 10 casino accolades.

And also, another one involves getting all the costumes, and there are a few that are casino exclusive.

gotta say, this is my first Dragon Quest game and the first game ever that's compelled me to spend as much time as I can with the characters as I have
It’s a good first game! If you have a 3ds I highly recommend playing 7 or 8(preferably 8). You can also play 4, 5, 6 and 9 if you have a 3ds since it also plays ds games.

I plan on playing 8 ASAP, and also the first 3 at some point
Because of the very direct connection XI has to I, II, and III.

But definitely my next priority is 8. It looks like "THE" DQ game people think of when they talk about it haha.

8, to me atleast is the FF7 of Dragon Quest. It’s my favourite one.

It’s the only one with the guv.

Awesome. Looking forward to it. Seriously.


Also kinda love the charm of the whole thing.
Tongue in cheek, and the "lewd" jokes aren't even that bad. It's all in good fun.
And I unironically like Toriyama's art style despite the sameface issue.

Another trophy in XI was getting all the Puff-puffs done to you hahaha

I love the naming for some of the monsters and how the games just look unique when compared to pretty much any other rpg series.

Also the main character of 8 can basically go super saiyan through the tension mechanic.

First time I saw a "Sham Hatwitch" I ugly laughed

And yeah, I saw a video of that! It's what initially piqued my interest.

lol!

Also I like the tension mechanic better than the pep power cause it has much better utility since you can control exactly when it happens instead of hoping you get it at the right time.

Also 8 is better cause all the party members are actually useful. Unlike Eric who is only useful for his 1 boulder move.

I have no complaints about Pep personally but tension might feel a bit better for me haha. I didn't use Pep power ups often so when they showed up it was fine.
That was, until I got to the post-game and decided to trophy hunt. Then I just kinda gathered the items to force pep powers. And main character can do it on command anyway.

Woof. Felt the same way about my Starbound fic ever since the writing challenge.

I say keep firing the scenarios off. Any practice is good practice.

Funny you should mention.

I've been playing through DQ1 (kind of an unfinished business thing from my childhood) and as I've been going through I've been thinking to myself -

408.png

I could build that.

So tonight's project is throwing a little something like that together. Probably just some RPG Maker nonsense, either VX Ace or MV, whichever strikes me. But it'll be good practice with utter basics, getting everything balanced properly, things like that.

I'm on the clock, and have to keep myself away from some mix of YouTube, TVTropes, and my Go, so I'm not sure if I can. But I'd like to have something readied by the morning to spit out at NZ.

Granted, I'm not all the way through DQ1, but I know roughly how the remaining parts go, and I won't be all the way through this either, so it all works out.
