Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Swamp Sensei]

I wonder how people will react to that last bit of news.

Will they still be mad?

 

[Oasis Dealer]

Now see! I don't mind that.

Petting your spouse is a lot better than petting cute anime girl/boy 57, WHILE married to someone else.

It turned the harem thing into something actually "romantic."

I still find the idea unnecessary, but making it exclusive to your spouse actually makes sense. Makes it seem like there's some form of a relationship instead of being just you petting all your favorite characters.

Is there a link to this source however?

 

[ChikoLad]

Oh yeah, I agree in that regard, more so just talking about how it's probably not how they're going to keep her/not a sign of the future, which I guess you know. Party really could do with some more personality to the characters.
Voice hacking is possible already? I remember the days they were a luxury in Brawl, haha.

English Cloud baby.

We've already seen that they used her better in stuff like Mario Tennis (tbh it might not be an exaggeration to say she is legit the best thing in that game. I've heard a bunch of people say they bought it just for her). So I'm not too worried. At the same time though, I think it's still a bit unclear as to how Nintendo wants to portray her. At the least, the new Mini Mario game has the Observatory in the background of her stage, which is a good start.

And an English Cloud Mod? I might actually try that when I finish the one I'm making.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

The petting being back still has moaning/etc., so you keep your sound off while in public. Or don't, if you're a pervert and like the weird looks.

 

[Ivander]

So on Fates face petting (because beating a dead horse is fun).

It's still in the game, but only for your spouse.

Source is GameSpot.

So if I have this right, with non-spouses, it's just chatting. With your spouse, it actually includes the petting.

I don't see a problem. I mean, wasn't the petting feature originally supposed to be just an extra feature once you chose your spouse before it became available for everybody? So wouldn't that be staying true to the original intentions of the FE team?

Hell, why not?

Because if you want to pet the face of a fictional character in a fictional universe in a video game, be my guest.

But please stop with the constant whining and bickering over this trivial issue, people.

I'm pretty sure by now, some people just bring the feature up and/or whine/bicker about it just to get a rise out of people and whatnot.

 

[Burruni]

I can still pet Foleo
Tenouttaten
GOTY

O CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN

Is this a Dead Poet Society reference? and Why?

Bruh we've been over this

When are people NOT mad about everything?

I didn't think there was anything wrong with the petting before, but this is the best way they could have handled it for the wider audience.

Or you can take the sound off
Or be a normal person and play your 3DS with earphones on

GAF's thread about it is a mix of "good stuff" and a lot of laughing/mocking the game.

 

[Opossum]

I want to participate, but I'm not canadian.
It only works for Canada?

It's for a Canadian eShop card.



I will likely have been ninja'd, since I idled on the page for a while before responding. Time to see if I was.

EDIT: Oh hey, only ninja'd once.

So you have to actually work for the whole face rubbing minigame. Well alright then. It's still in the game, so what's the problem?

Seriously, this is why it should have been best to wait for the game to come out. Especially when the source was KOTAKU of all sources.

When actually thinking about it, most likely the reason why it was changed to this method was because of the idea of rubbing the face of soldiers you just recruited. It's implied to be some form of love, and to do this immediately just seems a bit weird. So leaving it exclusive to spouses makes more sense and actually allows you to form bonds with the soliders you WANT to. I feel like this adds more to the game than anything.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Honestly the move is just a compromise.

Not a bad decision actually.

 

[Burruni]

Gonna be honest.
I'm a little elated about the Fates news.
One shameful thing, though...
Despite being incredibly superior there isn't a guy I have any interest in Max Ranking.
SO.

 

[Strofirko]

Face petting still on Fates...
**** it, lets bring more overxagerated Star Fox Zero is doomed news.

...I bought Ultra Smash primarily based on Rosa actually. They just handled her perfectly there. Plus Mario Tennis was my first video game ever so I guess you could call it blind loyalty. :V I'm sure they'll figure Rosalina out soon enough, she's been more good than meh so far.

If you do, Dissidia clips are your best bet. I know most of his translated Japanese lines from Smash are a lot of things he says in Dissidia. ("Not Interested" is his up taunt, "No hard feelings" is one of his victory poses, "I'm breaking my Limit" for down B "You're outta luck" for Omnislash, etc. But handle it however you want of course :V)

 

[JamesDNaux]

Same sex marriage is still locked to a single specific character per version though, isn't it?

Yes.
Only NotTharja and Zero. The former isn't accessable in conquest and the latter in birthright.

My question is if you still get Kanna if you're IN a homo relationship.

Even I haven't done that much. I have an album of images and gifs of her from the game though. Well, partly because I was asked to make one for other people. :V

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. I played a ton of the Dissidia games and there is a lot of material there. Might use one or two things from Kingdom Hearts too.

Well I'm weak and spineless when it comes to stuff like Ultra Smash most of the time, so I'm definitely not saying I should have made the purchase. It was a slow as molasses week at the time, needed something new.

And yeah, KH too. I want to play Dissidia again now...

 

[Cutie Gwen]

goddammit everything's been hitting me hard, and I've been tagged numerous times and all, I just don't know what to do with this anymore, I miss my dad, still feel traumatized over events that were almost a decade ago, I feel overstressed, got very sick recently, I don't know what I'm supposed to do

Yes.
Only NotTharja and Zero. The former isn't accessable in conquest and the latter in birthright.

My question is if you still get Kanna if you're IN a homo relationship.

They confirmed samesex couples get S Support boosts as Japan didn't do that oddly enough, but they said nothing about kids, so most likely not

 

[Aetheri]

Wait, what's this for Canadians only?

 

[BluePikmin11]

Is face-petting in the game or not. I'm extremely lost in this situation right now.

 

[A Distant Demon]

I don't know what I'm supposed to do

Take things one step at a time and at your own pace. Rushing in never got anyone anywhere.

I hate drills.

Not into incest.
And Inigo isn't Barney Stinson enough to get under these tights.

Last I heard, you don't get the kids.

There was some confusion on the matter due to epilogues showing them adopting children.

WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE LITTLE GIRLS SO MUCH THAT **** IS ILLEGAL

Yes.
Only NotTharja and Zero. The former isn't accessable in conquest and the latter in birthright.

No, you don't
Marrying Niles(Zero) locks you out of both Kanna(called Fuma in the US version according to GX) and his daughter, Eponine
What I don't get is why they didn't make the gay male option one of the children so you just lose Kanna

I hate drills.
Not into dark skin.
Not into incest.
And Inigo isn't Barney Stinson enough to get under these tights.

How can you hate drills?
That's racist! *ding*
Not incest if you don't share parents
I honestly don't know who Barney Stinson is so I'll just quote Inigo's best out-of-context quote

Huh.

Overwatch runs surprisingly well on my ancient rig. It's a solid 30 FPS even in harsh fire fights.

Are you legitimately serious right now?

Except I have had professional help. One thought I was a sadistic person who loved gore, one gave me medicine which made everything worse and the other one is giving me an impression they're only there for a paycheck

You are a bit violent. Maybe play some games like Mortal Kombat to let loose your violent side? The second person... well, they're not perfect. 3rd person is a jerk and should be ignored.

Racist is discrimination; not attraction.

Barney Stinson is the best ladies man in sitcoms (played by a gay actor)

Hey.
Listen to me right ****ing now, because I dont joke around with this **** after dealing with two close losses from friends in a similar state of mind as you. Take a breath. We care about you. If I'm somehow wrong on that, and I KNOW I am not, then know that I care about you. It's not always a matter of seeing eye to eye with you, for sure, but we DO care about you. I don't doubt for a moment your family doesn't care about you. So long as a single, solitary living thing gives a damn about you, your life will NEVER be "worthless". That is a fact and it is non-negotiable. Okay? Take a deep breath and calm down.

If you EVER need to vent or talk, or need advice or whatever, then consider me a punching bag and PM me.
