Oh my gosh,, watching the Hololive Minecraft Festival event highlights is adorable.

The JP girls were so genuinely enthusiastic about meeting the EN girls. It's absolutely precious.

That’s exactly what I was thinking…. Do you draw? Cause I almost want you to design this.


Did you not see harada’s tweet about that quote being a mistranslation and that the project is just on hold?

Harada alluded to this for years and the fact that it’s been on “indefinite hold” for quite some time now. Market analysts apparently saw the failure of games like SFxTK and MvC:I and even Blazblu Cross Tag Battle for some reason, even though that ones not really a failure, as a sign that there’s just not a market for these big crossover games. It’s been “paused” for about… well quite a while now.

Sorry have we met?

The idea is tempting. I wouldn’t know where to start. I’ve drawn the Pacster a bit for my new Pac-Man animated series ideas though my Take on him is a bit more traditional.

weird that PlayStation Plus decided to pick WWE 2K Battlegrounds to be one of their free games of the month...weirdos

Those are good.

I see the idea as some sort of hybrid of Mega Man X, FF7, Ghostbusters, and of course Pac-Man. Like he’s an edgy anime paranormal eliminator with a gun that mimics the power ups and abilities from the series. His uniform being the source of the classic red and yellow color pallet (such an edgy dramatic character in bright yellow is part of the joke).

After playing with Kazuya, he's well implemented. Quite the mass in priority where he gives defensive players a harder time, I would imagine. I've always believed, even if your favorite character may actually be in less priority, that should make it imperative to expand on alternatives outside of convenience. From the competitive mindset, if that applies personally, you will be a more enlightened player today of tapping into your exponential potential, than your perceived potential beforehand.

The difference is, a paused game can be resumed at some point. A cancelled game legally can not. That’s actually why very few games have truly been “cancelled” and we instead usually just stop hearing things about it.

It probably wouldn’t work for your your idea but what immediately popped into my head was a human proportioned individual who’s outfit screams edgy anime protagonist but on his head is a helmet that’s just Pac-Man’s face and he wears it without a hint of irony saying like “ The face I wear is one that the ghosts fear most of all.”

Oh my god no that’s perfect! Put both ideas together and we’ve got hillarity! Maybe it blinks and moves like daft punk’s helmet?

Excellent, excellent choice. Him, Paul, and Nina were my introductions to the first Tekken game in the 1990s. I then advantage on to everyone, due to the years of arcade competition popularity. Assuming you decide to try out this series, while it still maintains tier orientated as the rest, it's about less priority, and more matchup, and brute force experiences.

Get some help.

It's the little things like the sound effects for Kazuya's moves and the close ups on his grabs that make him satisfying as hell to play.

And then I keep pressing

And then I never stop pressing

I'm definitely late to the party for Amphibia Season 2 but...

The second episode is a omage to Gravity Falls.
WHERE WAS ALL THE HYPE!?!?

WHERE WAS ALL THE HYPE!?!?

Amphibia didn’t get much attention until relatively recently.

 

[MooMew64]

Yeah even I had no idea the show actually existed until recently.

I remember seeing one of Amphiba's early pitches at some point a few years ago and went "Huh. Maybe that'll turn into something."

Finally spent two weeks watching it and hoo boy, that's one of the better cartoons I've seen in a bit. Really hoping they don't do season 3 dirty given how animation is treated like garbage in the west, and after what happened with "True Colors".

 

[Deleted member]

Man, today’s shift was pretty weird.

I saw security get called because someone stole a bag while the family that got stolen from was tracking it’s location because the bag had a phone in it, someone unbuckled their restraints inside the tunnel where we totally don’t have a camera set up(wink wink ), and at one point I saw a baby literally wearing nothing but a diaper. how they got past security is beyond me. Oh yeah, did I forget to mention I got sent up to another section of the park out of nowhere because someone was doing training in my section?

To top it all off, today was unusually empty. Even for a Wednesday(which is usually the least busiest day of the week; Saturday is always the busiest) it felt like very few people actually were in the park at any one period of time.

I wonder what the common thread between the former two games was.
It couldn't be that both games had their own wealth of issues that massively turned people away. Nope, no on-disc dlc, no ****ty visuals, no "making one of the main villains of the story mode a DLC character and revealing that 6 months before launch" or anything like that and certainly no silly marketing terms that just pissed people off.

Meanwhile BBTAG is a low budget asset dump outside of like, 7 characters and ArcSys games don't need to do gangbusters to be a success anyway

The market analysts sound like idiots if they're gonna ignore the context behind the numbers.

Dont have any proof or anything but maybe the subpar sales of the Project X Zone games are involved as well.

Those games also lean in on the "Tekken X Street fighter" angle. But Virtua fighter is also there.

[ZephyrZ]

Wow. It's pretty sad that someone reported me on Smash Ultimate of thinking I'm a rage quitter just now. I guess that's the risk I take for being on wireless, which will occasionally drop your connection in the middle of a match. I definitely remember the days on Xbox and PS3, due to people reporting me of being too aggressive and unsporting in my approaches of winning against them, without voice connection most of the time. I've got to remember, that I'm dealing with bitter, arrogant, and derogatory youngsters again. An FYI, to myself. LOL.

Just so you know, if you lose your connection mid match too many times the game will automatically give you a temporary ban without anyone having to report you.

It sucks but I know from experience that if games didn't implement things like that, everyone would be rage quitting to preserve their GSP.

I feel like Rayman could use aerials to hover in place shortly, like he does in Rayman Origins and Legends. But not necessarily charge them.

Depends.

I try to have em up sometime in the evening, typically anywhere from 8pm -11pm or so

Any time in particular work best for you?
