This lmao

Well, just Baby Yoda in general, tbh

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I think that the "main antagonist" of SU Future is pretty cut and dry: its Steven's own inner turmoil when it comes to dealing with his OWN problems, as opposed to fixing other people's. I thought it was pretty clear that the season's consistent theme is what happens when life moves on, when you suddenly find yourself not being able to do the thing you do best quite like you did before, when all the people you're so used to tending to and caring about have now resolved all their problems, and they don't need your guidance anymore. All that's left to do is for Steven to look inward and confront his deep-seated issues related to his mother, as well as his compulsive need to be so involved in other people's issues to the point that it becomes a detriment to himself. And something tells me that inner-conflict will manifest into something nasty, considering the nature of his powers.

That’s still not much of a story. The plot is basically “Steven has an emotional breakdown”. Like, there are still problems that can be solved that could go alongside this plot thread. There are billions of planets in the galaxy and any one of them could decide to be a problem at any moment. This story of Steven dealing with his own issues is interesting, but it needs something more story based to go alongside it or you loose interest. Not to mention that there are still a few questions left about gems in general that they certainly don’t NEED to answer but could potentially lead to an interesting story.

TLDR, the last few episodes feel like half of an episode. They feel like a B plot. Not all of them. I think Prickly Pairs is a good way of doing this kind of thing.

One of my favourite moments this decade has to be seeing a rival of mine getting kicked out of college.

This was the start of 2017. Now this kid was boastful, argues for the sake of arguing and whatnot. He's the type who would swallow a cigarette and accuse people just for attention. He was pretty sexist too for some reason.
One day me and about 10 people were just sitting in this 6 by 6 meter tiny lunch room. We all didn't like him cause what he was doing. My college place was pretty chill.

Then my Student Officer came in for a minute about a last minute class change....... and said that he won't be coming back. Reason? He was caught stealing about £100 from one of tutors purses.

When she left, we all jumped and we were literally shaking each others hands while one of my friends made a speech. We all felt like we entered ascension.

Question for everyone.

What's the most important game that released this decade for you? Not necessarily "favorite" or "best". But like, the game that you wouldn't trade for any other because of the experience you had playing it.

I have an easy answer for that that I've talked about to death before, but I'm curious if anyone else here has a game like that in their life the last 10 years.

 

[Noipoi]

What's your most hated thing of the decade.

The fact that there’s a very real chance this world may end but the rich and powerful are too up their own asses to do anything.

And Mr. Orange.

Pokémon White, no question. It introduced me to my favorite gaming series that’s impacted me in so many ways, and I really wonder what I’d be like today if I hadn’t played it.

Probably Undertale/Deltarune. It was such an incredible experience, and it's still unlike any other game I've played. The story is engaging, the characters are fun, and every decision matters. It's also quite important to me as one of the first things I did when I started voice over was doing voices for Toby's characters. Preferably Lancer since I love Lancer. Here's an example of me as him.

Xenoblade Chronicles.

If I could go back in time and play through the game blind, you bet your ass that I'd jump on it. Video games typically don't touch me emotionally or leave long lasting impressions on me, but both this game and XC2 did just that.

Probably Smash 4. I prefer Ultimate, obviously, but it impacted me in an immense way. It was why I joined Miiverse, which I was on until the day it died. I made lots of good friends there, all but one I kept contact with after it's closure (the remaining one didn't have a Discord, which is how I stayed connected with the rest). I put over 500 hours into both versions, and it wouldn't suprise me if 3DS crossed the 1,000 hour barrier. I liked guessing who the next fighter was, so much I joined another site in which that was the main focus: Smashboards.

Well there's actually a tie for this for me.

Professor Layton VS Ace Attorney and Persona 5.

Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney because it introduced me to the Professor Layton games and to Level 5 as a whole, a developer who I've enjoyed every game I've played from them, I don't know if I would call them masterpieces but the games they make are some of the most fun I've had with gaming, and I owe those experiences to the Ace Attorney crossover.

Persona 5 because its a game that introduced me to one of if not my favorite group of fictional characters ever, the phantom thieves, and it introduced me to one of my favorite series.

Each of the games I've listed hit me emotionally. In ways I can't even properly describe and I'm truly thankful that I got to experience them.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Now give me my damn real Valiant Statue, Redd...

 

[Aurane]

And... done. Wow, that was fast. Lmao

Inteleon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Air Slash
- U-turn

I don't like Inteleon's shallow movepool, but she was the easiest Pokemon to get battle ready. You won't see me use this in serious matches that have Toxapex and **** in it, but I'll use it in lower tiers.

Without a doubt Ico and The World Ends With You.
Both games are super important to me for different reasons.

The World Ends With You was my gateway to anime and most RPGs and visual novels. Story, music, artstyle, and lore that needs more exploring. The game changed my life and gave me a direction back in 2011.

Ico. I was once told by someone that it's important to have something to always look to as a base for anything you create. I looked at Fumito Ueda's masterpiece as a base for a novel that I'm working on now. I love stories where the main theme is simply companionship. And I adore the game itself.
Its simple and beautiful. I could write a thousand word essay about it.

Honourable mentions: Nier Automata, Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, Yakuza 0, Zero Escape Trilogy, Shadow of the Colossus.

It’s basically about change. Steven has saved a
every homeworld planet from dying and most of them didn’t have life or had stuff like animals or plants. Steven has always had a lot going on and pushed that to aside using others as a facade to hide this.

I do agree that another overarching plot that ties in would be nice. Which we might have. After all mean lapis is out there, bluebird is out there, Jasper has something going on.

so it feels like something else is building up. A good theory I saw is Steven will go to take out his anger on jasper who can take hits and accidentally shatter her. Realizing he’s just like his mother he finally begins to address his issues, which leads to him finding out how to save shattered gems and thus save jasper and the cluster. That would be pretty sweet to see

Don't do my girl Jasper like that, I already had to watch her corrupt and disappear for two seasons.

For me, It would be Smash for 3DS and Pokemon Omega Ruby. I've always to play the former game ever since I've watched these two kids play Smash together in my middle school days, and I'm still playing it to this day. Just completed All-Star Mode with every character and about to do the same for Multi-Man Smash. I also been adapting to some new mains with Mario, Cloud, and Corrin.

Omega Ruby would be my very first Pokemon adventure which would be followed up by Pokemon Moon. I was a pretty big noob when I first played, but felt much more experienced with it in my second time with it. My Swampert was a very viable tank when it came to a couple of challenges, and ended up as my 1# favorite Pokemon from my time with it.

(I love my big blue boi so much..)

While not really a game and more so an app despite being on a Nintendo console, Miiverse. It was the first social media site I had ever signed up for that you could post freely on (until you couldn’t post freely anymore, but whatever,) and it was what encouraged me to begin to seriously practice making art.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Although I do not own it yet, Soulcalibur 6 is a close second.

Y'all can expect me to return to this thread later to wish y'all a happy new year.

Amiibo Festival wouldn't have garnered nearly as much hate if it wasn't the only Animal Crossing game available for Wii U.

It was still totally a shameless excuse to sell AC amiibo, tho.

I wish I had completed that game. I just didn't really enjoy the combat system at all.

Spoiler

And Fiora coming back put a damper on my motivation since I had nothing to really avenge and I don't even know what role she has in a party

I also wonder how good the sequel is. Just have seen some super lame sexual anime scenes about it.

My new years resolution is too help my brother make progress on his game project.

We have most of our character and monster designs ready, we have most of our plot good to go and we got RPG maker over christmas, a basic tool that gives us everything we need to work with.
