Well I've seen people literally cancel their Xenoblade X pre-orders because the battle theme has rap in it. People are just way too spoiled.
What a stupid reason. lol

That's the video game community for you.

The rap is kinda catchy, to be honest, and I'm not much of a fan of rap in the first place. I don't think the rapper works with Sawano anymore, though. The latest soundtracks he's done don't have any songs with rapping, so maybe their collaboration is over.

I know the rapper collaborated with Sawano for Kill la Kill's OST which is from late 2013 (and also led to complaints lol), but all other anime OSTs he's made after KLK don't have any rap songs. None of the songs in Aldnoah.Zero, Nanatsu no Taizai and Owari no Seraph have rapping but still feature many of the vocalists Sawano usually collaborates with.

I guess if the soundtrack hadn't been produced all the way back in 2012, there wouldn't have been such complaints... :p

I think a Pokemon card amiibo line is pretty likely.
Well, if they want easy money, that's one way to do it.

Technically...Geno Boost started this round as Burb's original comment wasn't even direct at him. Burb was replying to a comment that was directed at him.

So you guys need to stop picking on him, as he isn't 100% wrong.

Burb could've been less standoffish in his reply, but at this point I think he's just sick if hearing about Geno's "importance", especially when the comment wasn't directed at @Geno Boost .

If I wanted to start another Geno debate, I'd have actually countered his points. It's not hard to do, I've already obliterated them more times than I care to remember.

Maybe you should've quoted his post and said this instead of mine. Oh, wait, that's right, we've still got this narrative going on that I'm this big mean bully picking on an innocent child. Silly me, I almost forgot. :estatic:
You're the one coming back to a post from twenty pages ago and you think the other guy should've been told to stop? I get that he was responding to you but you made the choice to bring it up. If you think his argument is "drivel" and that it's not worth having a serious discussion over it, then you should drop it instead of making a dumb, condescending remark so that you can complain when you're called out.

I dunno if it's part of your internet persona or something but you should probably tone it down. You're really pointlessly argumentative.

Can this Geno nonsense please stop? Every time he's talked about, things always get nasty, as they are now. Enough is enough.

This goes for both sides of the debate. Just let things go, agree to disagree and move on.

@Burb's last post before the reply to @Geno Boost was page 75.
Geno Boost's reply to Burb was page 76.

For Burb he didn't go back and look for ammo. He signed on and replied. He hasn't posted for 20 pages (yes I checked before I told everyone to stop picking on Burb).

I say gen mascots could be figures to:
lucario, zoroark, pikachu, eevee, kanto starters, pichu( although johto doesn't really have mascot marketing anymore), maybe plusle and minun, again not much mascto marketing in Hoenn, and potentially Hawluch with the XY Line and a mega possibly.

Ooh, so the first Yokai you get the cicada!

That's cool

I named him decibel. Because cicada's make loud noises
Yeah, I really like the Cicada and his evolution line, (at least so far. I don't know if he evolves a second time).

I named him Facade because he said he disguised himself as a normal cicada.

The fact that you looked that up before saying anything is at the same time hilarious and admirable.

I realize this, but I'm saying that the discussion was completely dead to the rest of the thread and that letting it go would be excruciatingly easy. More so than usual. It's essentially bumping a discussion he's claiming isn't worth his time.

I usually don't name the Yo-kais themselves because I want to know their official names as much as possible.
There's some great/funny nickname suggestions that the name randomization offers if you decide to name the Yo-kai you befriended, just a quick easter egg.

Moving on from the current topic...

An excuse to stoke my inflated ego? Count me in!
I am #16 in messages, #11 in likes. Which is a lot higher than I thought I'd be.

Now if you can excuse me, I plan on enjoying this shallow, false excuse for pride. It's not every day I feel like more than an empty shell pondering where his trivial mess of a life went...

Anyone have any leads on black friday sales?
I prefer cyber monday, but I always keep my eyes open for in store sales as well.

I don't think that what he meant.

I mean, to be fair, starting a debate and starting conversation (or an argument) are different things. Starting a conversation only requires a response. Most of us agree with you when it comes to Geno but we also dont drag it out longer than we have to. I mean we're not obligated to dignify everything with a response, though of course we're free too. The thing is, responding to things we dont like (and cant change) usually just results in more conversation about the topic. In those cases it just seems more effective to ignore it, let it go, and move on.

For me it usually goes like this:
"Oh, look a geno supporter" [goes on with life and doesnt hear about geno for a while]

Of course everyone is free to respond as they please, but sometimes responses are counter productive to their initial purpose. I mean if someone disagreed with you and ask/told you to shut up would you actually do it? Of course not, you're Burbles and you will not be tamed. But that said, would you expect others to act differently because you're the one doing the asking?

There's name randomization?

I personally prefer to name them if I want to name them.

I have a Nagatha named Selfie for example. My Tattlecast is Wub. Espy is Tarot. So on and so on.

Do you want to know how far Fallout 4 character's creator can go? It's SMASHING all previous expectations
So, I know this is lackluster. I do however want to ask if this is at least better than what previous Fallout games had to offer.

Pretty much every review is good. Pretty much the only negative i've seen is framerate and bugs (which apparently isn't a PC problem and the bugs get patched). My money is on if you like Fallout's gameplay (like I do) it will probably be worth the buy.

You see, Swampy, the people in charge of releasing said trailer were unfortunately tasked with scrubbing the floors, buying delicious MUNF MUNF and making dinner, so the trailer is going to be delayed until said things happen.

Allow me to talk about the awesomeness that is Xenoblade Chronicles X.

I must admit I'm becoming more hyped for this game. Dangerously so, I dare to say.

Then again, having started to watch mecha anime and playing the original Xenoblade this year did wonders in that regard. And then there's the soundtrack... Putting it simply: Xenoblade gameplay + mecha + soundtrack by Sawano = hype overload.

As for the story, it likely won't disappoint.

Now to foolishly want some XCX content as Smash DLC... A foolhardy pipe dream, but a dream nonetheless.

If only there wasn't such a news drought in regards to Smash... Sometimes I wonder what's going on in the development studio. The next Nintendo Direct can't come soon enough, but I guess it won't be that long until then.

Well, I'm rambling far too much for my own good. I'll see you guys later.

So... it looks like we're still in the dark for now.

PushDustIn PushDustIn : Would it maybe be possible for you to convince RandomTBush to tell you the costumes as your a trustworthy source? I'm kind of interested on what you'd have to say on this whole thing lol.
