Yeah the worst part about X are the bugs.

No, not those bugs, I mean the actual insects.

They're everywhere

Please send help :drsad:
I have Mechanoid problems, one of them follow me from one end of Cauldros to the other end of Cauldros. Man those Queen Qmoeva are hard to shake off!!

It's mostly the Scirpos that bother me, since I'm terrified of spiders.

Going into Noctilum and seeing a beautiful scenery only to see a bunch of them fling down from above still haunts me. Also I rarely check out caves for this very reason.

Thankfully they're not so abundant in other continents, though Cauldros has a buttload of Petramands which aren't exactly better...

The random encounters wouldnt be so bad if they werent necessary sometimes (unless you want to go all parkouur on them)

AND IF THEY DIDNT CHASE YOU FOR A YEAR. When you spend a full minute running and and all you have managed to do is aggro MORE enemies and still haven't got that damn Simius off you for the 20th time it gets a bit annoying.


EDIT
Watching Kirby Squeak Squad and suddenly. . .


Oh hey it's Master Ha-


Oh. . .Master Edges too. . .Well Master Edge at least

Thankfully it gets easier with Skells and even more so with the Flight Pack.

...Unless you're in Cauldros in which case Good ****ing Luck mate.

Cauldros does get a lot easier to navigate at higher levels. I don't aggro anything anymore.

Has anyone posted this here? It's from #FE.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTl8gDQiKiE

The video is a massive spoiler, by the way, so a avoid watching it if you mind spoilers.

Anyway... I'm speechless. I don't even know how to react to this. This is what a crossover between FE and SMT turned out to be.

Well, talk about beating a dead horse, no? I'm so not getting this game. lol

It's been said 100 times but I feel really bad for the localization team

If they dont change much people will get pissed over the "waifu emblem"

If they change a lot . . .see Xenoblade X changing barely anything.

I have no issue with this at all and will still buy it when it's cheap

Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Marth? I have to see the game for this game first before I make a decision. I heard the game is hard, that maybe a problem for me because the reward looks like it not going to be worth dealing with the hard game play. Hard =/= Fun in my opinion and I don't really want to waste time and money.

I'll give credit to #FE where it's due, because the game does have some positive aspects to it.

1. I like the art style overall.
2. The voice cast is solid and they brought back many of the original VAs for the FE characters, even some from the old obscure FE OVA. Of course, Awakening characters all keep the original voices.
3. The gameplay itself doesn't seem bad either and I heard the game is actually challenging.
4. The whole idea of being able to travel between two distinct worlds, as I've talked about before.

But the whole J-pop thing is just so unfitting to both series it combines, it leaves a really sour taste. Like, who thought this would be a good idea? They could have approached a crossover of both series in a more appealing way, by playing more on the fantastical elements of both SMT and FE while still having original characters.

How on Earth did a crossover between games that deal with darker/mature themes including war, political intrigue, devastation, death, making difficult choices and such things ended up being a musical? It's just mind-boggling and I will never understand how this game ended up being the way it is.

This game is the very definition of wasted potential.

#FE is just a part of the self-fulfilling cycle of anime being consumed by otaku culture and disappearing up its own rear. Which is why it has the J-pop aesthetic.

Man...
I'm not gonna be able to stay up for the Prinny: Can I Really Be The Hero? run.
ESPECIALLY since it's the Hell's Finest run.
For those who don't know....
It's a spin-off action platformer for the Disgaea series, using the "goomba" of the series as the protagonist. You're terribly underpowered BY DESIGN.
Hell's Finest Difficulty? Anything so much as sneezes on you and you are dead.
1000 Lives. 10 Stages.
Do you think you're a bad enough dood to save the Netherworld?

I kind of liked that dragon ball Z movie

But, when goku obviously outpowers the villain it really isn't that compelling

Do you guys think that if Smash Bros 4 had a T rating for release, do you think we could've gotten Elma or Cross as Smash DLC over Corrin, with the allowance of guns in-game.
We COULD'VE gotten them now.
They could've gone with the more fantastical choices of Dual Pistols if the rating was that much of an issue.
One in particular, in mind, looked like mobius strips orbiting energy cores that shot little pew pew blasts. I have a "trophy" of em in my base and I'll check the name in a moment.

Edit: Dyads. Excuse the poor image quality.

You're just saying that like bayonetta didn't get in.

Just say anyone weilding guns are using "magic" guns and it solves everything

Just finished the first fight in Undertale. Damn, that's the quickest any game has given me feels.
I know, that frogit fight was emotional

Edit: lol, actually the dummy is before frogit

Guns didn't keep Bayonetta from coming here and XCX's guns aren't too realistic either.
The game was originally E10 until Bayonetta's inclusion was decided though. I'm thinking hypothetically that it had the T rating before Bayonetta was developed, would Elma have been chosen over Corrin when it came deciding characters from recent releases.

No.

a. The fact Bayonetta is getting in means it wouldn't matter anyway.

b. Corrin would have been chosen over Cross/Elma regardless because of this little tidbit that I've previously stated when I briefly discussed about Zygarde:

Though, the main issue now that I'm thinking of it is timing.
Since we don't know when "Pokémon Z" or any expectation-defying game(s) like Black 2/White 2 is going to be officially announced, it may not even be released until too late for character promotion.
With Corrin at least, he fit the timing perfectly; his game was to be released outside Japan around the same time he would be released for Smash.
This is why someone like Elma wouldn't work here; by the time she'd have been released for Smash (or even announced as DLC), her game would have been released all over the world already.

They could have gone with futuristic-like guns like Fox and Falco have, I guess, or change the guns to shoot lasers instead of bullets.

Then again, Bayonetta uses guns, though they're more like magic pistols and even make magic circles and effects when shooting, which combined with the fact the guns' designs are kinda flashy and the fact she uses four guns at once, is probably what made her get away with using guns.

Sakurai's problem with guns is the usage of real-life firearms with actual bullets. All guns in Smash don't have very realistic or practical designs and none fire bullets. Most firearms in Smash fire lasers, with Bayonetta's guns firing magic blasts.

One issue.
:4corrin::4bayonetta: being worked on co-currently. Taking a similar amount of workload, especially with both having two fully functional model variants. IF ANYTHING, Bayonetta came first because she required liscencing in terms of choosing.
Presumably, they've known that they would have the T rating range from near the start if not the very start of the work for whatever promotional character they would've chosen.

Wait? I thought the game was still a E10+ rating? It still says E10+ on Bayonetta's trailer.

Seriously, the dummy not being able to talk reminds me of how many dummies suffer from not being understood, and either being ignored or used as car crash experiments. If only we could give dummies the respect they deserve.
Knowing dummies, I think they get exactly what they deseve
