So here's the full look and names of that pokemon list I posted earlier:


Madratter is an amazing name!
Ossomofish. That's a goddamn yapok, otherwise known as the water opossum.

They do an extremely-obscure South American opossum before a regular one.

If this is real I'm gonna be the biggest mix of confused and salty.

True, but seeing now in full may be better. And Ken suiorgurmi wanted the designs to be simpler next time.


#774 is dark and steel, and op had magianna left out due to it being known.

But it's still weird considering steel gets 2 to 3 lines a gen.

And here's another "leak"

http://boards.4chan.org/vp/thread/25445676/738-and-739-leaked
Meant to come from the leaked gen 6 list which doesn't seem to have the wood pecker, so it's more then likely fake.
Love the design though.

Also magianna's creator in the movie could give it dark origins:
http://boards.4chan.org/vp/thread/25446325/in-the-movie-magearna-was-made-by-a-man-named
That is essentially Snowdrake from Undertale. :laugh: Cute design though.

Come on 21rst...I need that therapy. Not just to feel comfy about myself but so these jokes end
Pretty sure you like the jokes
The Nohr Noble is really nice as is the Wolfskin. Adventurer is also really good since they can heal and use cross bows.
Adventurer is just a class I like from design alone and how it is an Outlaw becoming an Adventurer
Kinda like how simple Mercenaries become "Heroes"
Even if I become Lola Ferrari tier? T.T
Now that's sonething I'm pretty sure you DON'T want

Manliness is not based on your gender.

It is a way of life

You can't tell me that isn't MANLY AS ****
Tifa doesn't even match Sabin in manliness. Mofo piledrived a ghost train. HE PILEDRIVED A TRAIN, LET ALONE A GHOST.

I'm upgrading my path to upgrades with gender therapy

I kinda already said that
I feel the game is meh so I'm not going to buy it
I was just stating my opinion on it, I hope I'm still allowed to do that:p
That's not what you said at all in the comment I replied to, you just complained about the fact that they reused the engine and it looks "samey" and my point is that it would be a waste of their time and money to create an engine and only use it once.

Majora's Mask and Mario Galaxy 2 are two examples of the exact same thing and they're considered some of the best games ever. Then there's the New Super Mario Bros. series which all feel exactly the same and they are the best selling games Nintendo makes.

In conclusion, I think "same engine = not worth my time" is just terrible reasoning.

At least it's a step in the right direction.

And alright, I have no clue what enemy that is xD.

The design is nice as well.

And because thought he deserved it, I made Arthur a Hero. He's pretty sweet looking now.

My issue with the new Kirby comes less from them using the same framework and more from them not doing anything particularly interesting with it. Mechs are cool on paper but it's just the one mech and it's basically just Mega Man X ride armour in a game where it wouldn't really add much. Gives Kirby more powerful versions of 10 power-ups? He really didn't need that. And it sometimes flies I guess. Kirby can already do that too. He even has multiple copy abilities based on enhancing flight.

Galaxy 2 and Majora's Mask are not good comparisons, as their additions and elaborations were much more substantial and game changing (mainly Yoshi and the Doomsday Clock respectively), and in the latter's case, to the point where it actually turned some people off from how stressful the time management aspect could be, effectively making the game feel like an entirely different experience.

Majora's Mask was also just a really enriching experience from a narrative standpoint, much more so than OoT, so it had that going for it too. And despite being on the same engine, Majora's Mask noticeably kicked up the graphical fidelity.

Yeah, but don't expect flat jokes to ever end :p
Because being flat is like hope, it never dies and both you and Lucina have plenty of both :troll:

But that wasn't my reasoning
I said it uses the same engine, that is a fact
I said it looks samey, that's why I don't like it
I just look at it and see an expanded TD
I don't care if NSMB sells, that's not what I'm discussing here
All I'm saying is that I don't like it

Okay, so I was just on Google Maps planning out a trip I'll be taking, and I'm dumbfounded. The little map-placement guy in the corner is Link.

After Googling it, I'm late on this, but why the hell wasn't I informed of this? That's an adorable Easter egg.

Took a while for it to go through, but I am super excited to find out Source Gaming met the metric standards for registration as a media outlet.

...now I just need to somehow raise the money to go, lol.

After a simple Google search, I can safely confirm that Mario x Sonic is the funniest slash ship in history.

I don't know why people are upset with reusing engines as long as a new experience is provided.

Like, games did that all the time for decades and we take issue with it now?

Just people being superficial.

Like I explained, I don't have a problem with re-using a framework as long as the new features are not superficial themselves and actually add something new.

This 100%! I actually like that it's built on triple deluxe because it was great and looks nice to!

The story's completely different as is everything else! It shouldn't matter to people.

But this shouldn't surprise you, it's the internet after all!

OMG, the Archie Comics foreshadowed the Mario & Sonic Olympic Games way before Sega even made them.

Why change a working base? Seems like a no-brainer to me.

As I've said, my problem is not the engine
The problem is that the game looks and feels the same
God, why do people keep twisting my words?

Because that's the reason it "looks and feels the same."

Alright then, I'm sorry if I don't like the game because it's literally TD with mechas tacked on it
Whether or not it's the same engine doesn't matter, they're doing nothing to freshen up the gameplay, the mechas are just glorified animal partners
