Dutch Raikuna Dutch Raikuna For the record, I'm kind of obsessed with Final Fantasy Summons

To that end, what other recurring FF summons that were missing from the original FFVII do you think they should implement in future parts of the remake (ala Cactaur and Carbuncle)?

Also, IMO, Chadley should be available from the beginning of Part 2 to allow you to re-challenge all of the summons you had in the first part and reacquire them (meaning fights for Chocobo and Moogle, Cactaur, Carbuncle, and Chcocobo Chick) though still at their original difficulties.

Also, I had this idea for part two where it let's you carry over your progress from part 1 at the cost of scaling the rest of the game to match your level, with the new max level with carried over progress being level 100.

So I'm gonna have to do a self block of here for the first time in while. Not the clinginess but just trying to push my mind to write more and more so just for an hour. Keeping Discord open to keep back and forth so to also help a certain friend of mine.

So Wademan94 Wademan94 Lamperouge Lamperouge Noipoi Noipoi Hat N' Clogs Hat N' Clogs (you were an early help for me dude) and a few others who I think might be interested in it, I'll share a new piece later if you guys are up for it. Wouldn't mind drumming up a bit more interest.

Plus this time I'm keeping a few novels both light and actual beside me to keep the mind on what a story is.

I'd throw it out in the open here but don't want some easy road guest to nick it. And if they ************ ****************** ******* ********** *******.

I'm ready to bask in the glory of your literature with my unworthy eyes.

But it gave us this

The campy script is what gives it charm. I honestly like how off the walls fun it is with how corny the dialogue can be. It never takes itself too seriously, and in a light-hearted adventure like Colors, it matches up well.

I'd have a bigger problem if this dialogue was in Adventure 2, let alone Shadow's game. Thankfully, such isn't the case.

Right a self block for an hour all for literature. Can't turn back now.

I think it can get a little too cheesy at times, but I do have a soft spot for it.

As a kid, this was peak comedic writing.

Truthfully it’s not the writing in Colors that bothers me. It’s the controls. I have a hard time expressing it... Sonic just feel so much heavier then he usually does and it makes 2D platforming a chore. Colors is definitely not my favorite boost era game v

NOT AN EXCUSE!
It was clear that the writers of Colors didn't know or care about Sonic's history, lore, and especially characters.
Sonic acted like an adult that was trying to be cool and failing.
He had cockiness without the compassion for others; he treats his confrontations with Eggman as a job, not because it was the right thing to do.

My training is going pretty well so far, but I still have 3 hours of endless powerpoint presentations left and I already feel like I got a good grip on what they’re teaching me... :drsad:


I almost mentioned I was a furry to the rest of the people with me, but you could probably guess why I didn’t.

Sonic Colors is a literal masterpiece gameplay wise. There’s not a single Sonic with a good story or characterization or lore so I don’t really know why any of that is all that important.
Excuse you, Sonic 06 is a narrative masterpiece.

Happy birthday, btw. :nifty:

I can't get over the fact that Sonic and Crash faltered during that time period for complete opposite reasons. Sonic took itself way too seriously while Crash didn't take itself seriously enough :yoshi:

TBH if you want Sonic with actual characterization, IDW is where you go.

Seriously, go read IDW Sonic, that comic's heckin' sick.
Honestly IDW Sonic (from what I have seen) felt like the continuation of the Pre-Sonic Colors games and the Archie comics.
Therefore I approve of IDW Sonic.

When you get to the point where the phrase “To kill someone to save the world. Is that really the right thing to do?” is uttered by a character that looks like this:

You may wanna do a bit of re-examination.

It's no use questioning it, sometimes you just gotta roll with Sonic storytelling.

Just when you thought the TLOU remake mess couldn't get anymore messy, this happens...



When the former Sony CEO is doing something like this, you know **** has hit the fan hard.
I literally just learned about that this morning. Can I get the full story if available?

So guys. Did 500 words in about 45 minutes.

I'm proud of myself and while not complete I'll PM a few of you guys soonish.

Really ain't the same company anymore.

Shawn Layden actually looked like he cared about gaming as a whole. I think Jim Ryan would rather throw himself off the Sony building before saying a Japan Studio game. He just looks like a corporate prick.

Meanwhile Ken Kutaragi is just having a drink with the creator of Tekken in all this chaos.
