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

[Cutie Gwen]

I remember this one "Xenoblade is sexist" rant about how like, there are no female characters in the first 15 minutes (Mechonis counts as one I'm sure?), the clothing for the women (when the men can show skin too), and my favorite [/sarcasm] buzzword, "heteronormative" (aka what my harassers said when I didn't ship the yaoiz in another game)

That was Brianna Wu. She's not a gamer, but someone who loves making controversy. Not to mention Fiora is available for the first 15 minutes iirc and 15 minutes is NOTHING for the game as a whole

Kamen Rider has no negative part of the fanbase because it's too niche

I DON'T CARE IF THAT MAKES US GOOD I WANT KR TO BE POPULAR DAMMIT
Then again, the trackrecord of female Riders makes it being niche a good thing...

I'm just gonna say it.
Fire Emblem has had a lot of... out there character designs across the series.
Pieri is still the weirdest to me.
WHAT IS THAT COTTON CANDY HAIR?!

To be fair, some clothing sets show skin on women when they don't for men, and multiple times I was left under the impression that I just desperately wanted Sharla to wear something an actual human would wear other than her default armor set.

Fortunately XCX actually fixed this to a large degree with Fashion Gear.

The other two things I agree are pretty ridiculous if not outright rage inducing, though.

 

[ChikoLad]

Speaking of Xenoblade, I need to get back to beating it sometime. I'm sort of in side quest mode now though (really don't want to grind the same monsters just to progress the story unless I really have to), so it's a bit less compelling.

As for fandoms, all of them have their bad eggs and only in some cases are they a majority.

There are shirtless armour for the men in XC. My Dunban and Reyn currently are.

So since Smash 4 music hacking is going to be happening apparently by the time Corrin/Bayonetta release and you won't have to replace songs to add new ones, what songs are you planning on adding to which stages?

I'm definitely adding more Yoshi's Woolly World music myself because wow that game's music is gorgeous.

Just listen to this beautiful track

More than the bare minimum of Final Fantasy music?

 

[Rie Sonomura]

I sadly haven't beaten Xenoblade yet. I got a Wii U and X is taking up my time but I plan on transferring my Wii data to Wii U, selling the Wii, and then [redacted] so maybe later I'll finish Xenoblade as I'm too broke for N3DS

I'll give a hint for the [redacted]...the only way to play GC games on Wii U involves this.

I'm dying to know now that you guys acknowledged it!

Kamen Rider songs all day every day. And a bunch of songs that sadly didn't get in, including Starfy's final boss theme, Kirby Triple Deluxe's bosd theme, Masked Dedede, VS Kraid, blablablah

I'M SURE MARRYING COUSINS WAS OKAY AT THAT TIME CONSIDERING ERIKA-EPHIRAM.

I can't hear that name witout thinking of

And that makes the post all the better.

All I know is this:

Midgar is gonna get the revamping it needs

Boxing Ring will have much better tracks than just the Minor Circuit theme

Codename STEAM music all over the place

And Sonic, Street Fighter and Megaman on almost every stage

Are you implying that Paper Mario Flavio isn't Smug?
Because if so you are high off your own fumes.

Edit: that comes off more aggressive than the joking way I meant it

To be fair Gentaro said it himself. And Bravo is the only canonically gay Rider, he'd be popular. Then there's Drive...Goddamn Drive...Makes you want the villains to win because of how likeable they are

 

[epicmartin7]

You know? I've never really been a good artist throughout my life. I've always tried to draw detailed things throughout my life, and never got past the stick figure stages.

Although, I do love a form of art that I can actually do. My favorite type happens to be a derivative work. Modifying someone's art to make it look better or look goofy. Me personally, I love making things look goofier.

One such example is JamesDNaux 's drawing...

... and modifying the face just a little bit.

It's just a thing I like doing and my intent isn't to offend the original artist at all. I just love being goofy with my art and making other's art just weird and goofy .

You had one job.

NOHR IS JUSTICE U HOSHIDO SCUM! ILLUMINATI KIIIIICK!

TAKE THAT GILGAMESH KNOCKOFF

 

[Burruni]

Or because they're just so magnificiently evil beyond any glimmer of redemption that you feel guilty for rooting for them.

Seriously though.
Prinny has a glorious final boss theme.

Edit:

I'm doing Nohr first, pleb.

...Partly because Baewulf.

Well yeah, the Mist/Gel sets are pretty equal opportunity.

Then you try. . .was it the Jungle set? On a male character, kind of like it but feel the stats would be better allocated to Sharla, then try said set on her and it looks completely different and. . .not kosher, despite being decent on male characters.

YOU ONLY WENT WITH US FOR MS. PURPLE HAIR AXE ****

Yo.
I may have a love of jubblies of magnitude.
But I am not touching Camilla.
Touch Fluffy Tail.

Edit: But more seriously, I want to do it because I want to take on a "true" FE challenge and then have a more laid back experience afterwards.

 

[Champ Gold]

I'm doing the Neutral Route first because screw you, Nohr and Hoshido suck and I like the interactions between the characters from both kingdoms interacting with each other.

I know Dunban's Makna/Jungle top is pretty revealing actually. It's like a half vest or something.

IDK I don't personally care for it either way.

My nitpick is more that some of the NON-revealing armour looks really silly. My Shulk looked like a boy scout or something for the longest.

FLUFFY TAILS ARE BANNED IN TOURNAMENTS YOU FOOL

I say, dood.
Didn't know we were talking any tournaments.

FLUFFY TAILS ARE BANNED IN TOURNAMENTS YOU FOOL

I ****ing love Rider Kicks.

It's like the world's greatest divekick fused with the powers of the greatest martial artists that ever lived

LOL yeah, honestly decent or not a lot of XBC and XBX armor is pretty odd looking and awkward.

You don't have to. I just did it as a joke . Unless you can't post this stuff here, which is understandable.

 

[Chrono.]

Don't you have to complete one of the routes before that though?

 

[ChikoLad]

Just noticed that some of you guys ended up talking about Fates.

Kinda funny since my friend and I ended up talking about FE and Fates just now on Skype.

 

[Champ Gold]

Don't you have to complete one of the routes before that though?

...I don't think so. Especially when I can buy the version that has all 3 routes

For one, X music. Uncontrollable is an absolute MUST.

I have a couple more songs I'd like that I've posted countless times in other threads and I'm too tired to retrieve em right now

 

[Chrono.]

...I don't think so. Especially when I can buy the version that has all 3 routes

Huh

You're right

This makes buying them twice even more stupid damn it

 

[Deleted member]

Songs and which stages they'd be added to:

Spoiler: It's probably gonna end up bigger tho

Final Destination-Betting it All(EOIIU), World Revolution(CT), Last Battle(CT), Intertwined(TW101) and Guyzoch Space Pirate Teio Form(W101)(there are too many songs that scream "Final Destination" tbh)
Battlefield-Battle(CT), Shiver(EOIIU), Storm(EOIV)
Skyloft-Corridors of Time(Chrono Trigger)
Kalos Pokemon League-Black Omen(CT), Vattle with Magus, Schala's Theme, Vs N Final(Pokemon BW)
Halberd-Wings that Cross Time
Temple-Singing Mountain(CT), Secret of The Forest(CT)
Gaur Plains-Wind Scene(CT), Unfinished Battle
Pyrosphere-Oppression(Cave Story)

Also, everyone knows Nohr is best Fates path
Hoshido=Trarsha 2.0
Nohr=Best Husbando
Neutral=YOUR PLAYING THE GAME WRONG

 

[ChikoLad]

Another problem with the Fates "CHOOSE A PATH" thing is that as well as needing to buy versions...

...you know it's just gonna end up like Shadow the Hedgehog.

One of these choices is going to be the canon one. Probably the third one.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I ****ing love Rider Kicks.

[A Distant Demon]

You can buy a version with all 3 stories?

Dammit how have I managed to miss so many details of this game?

I need that version because it is the on;y one that matters

How is Neutral playing the game wrong other than the obvious issue for charging extra for what should have been part of the default game?

If the plot is going to be so cliché as to give me a group of "villains" that aren't so bad and a group of "heroes" who are a heck of a lot worse than they come off just to make a failed attempt at Grey and Gray Morality while needlessly killing off a character to boot, then I say to hell with all of them, I'm wingin' it, and if you still want to be my buddy than you ditch this stupid conflict like a man and bro up with your former mortal enemy or Imma drool on your corpse with my power hose dragon mouth.

HUAH.

 

[Chrono.]

It's the limited edition and it's $80 USD.
