There's a part of me that wants to try out Mega Man X Dive now that it's got a version that's no longer a gacha game. It lasted about 3 years, like a lot of mobile games. But I've seen that the translation is still pretty jank like something from the 90's. No Capcom Crossover stuff, which sucks cause Dante Armor X would've been a blast to play. But aside from that, A Mega Man X game with a ton of stages in it could be fun. 30 bucks might be a bit too rich for the type of game it was. It's not nearly as polished as Mega Man 11, but it has a lot more levels and modes in it. So I'm conflicted on that.

Truth be told, I'm hoping that the fact it was decently successful(it was sited to have pushed Capcom's mobile division sales by 80% or so in its first year), that it'll mean more Mega Man stuff in general, same with the BN Collection selling more than a million copies. Both MM and DMC should get more regular releases given they've been on the up and up lately, just not the yearly push MM used to get back in the day so that sales can be more consistent with the modern market.

Why does the GTS even give you the option to search/ask for Mythicals if it's just gonna go literally 2 seconds later "WAIT YOU CAN'T LOOK FOR THAT ONE!"
That seems like an oversight that should've been fixed.

It's like the ****ing Man Ray and Patrick meme


"This is a Mythical Pokemon."
"Yup."
"And you allow me to enter the Mythical into the desired field."
"Yup."
"Meaning that I should be able to ask or look for a Mythical Pokemon."
"That makes sense to me."
"Then let me do it."
"THAT'S A SPECIAL POKEMON! YOU CAN'T SEARCH FOR IT!"

They added a post credits scene that seems to tease X9 at least and I don't doubt for a second that some people are making mods for the crossover stuff even if it should have been in the game to begin with

Thinking about the Indigo Disc DLC, the whole biome thing they showed off seems like it's going to be some kinda bandaid fix to help evolve Pokemon into their regional evolutions that you'd otherwise need a different game for, ala the Alolan Exeggutor they showed off.


....but that begs the question



What the **** is a Galar biome going to look like. How does one encapsulate Bri'ish in nature.

It's the same as Paldea biome but all the Pokémon have bad teeth

So... it's been forever since I last posted. 2 years ago in fact. How's everyone? Any update? Did anything significant happen on this forum? I'm not sure where to go really. Looking at my old posts make me cringe a bit. I only remembered about this site because I was checking rumors out on ssbwiki and saw a few mentions to this forum.

I feel like I'm going to have an existential crisis in a few months. Before I know it I'm now in the last year of my high school. I know what career to do or what uni to study in, I think, but part of me have doubts... meanwhile my sister is going to Poland soon to study for the first semester. It's a world of difference... I know I shouldn't really be saying such things but ugh...

they did create Rin for the Catherine game as well (and tbh the way that romance path ended was hella wholesome)
Rin best boy.
You think that **** was wholesome?
Vincent (thats his name, right?) did say he didnt give a **** if he was a boy, he still loved him. Its a low bar, sure. But props to atlus for even doing that

It’s normal to have moments like this, don’t sweat it. You’ll do just fine!

You seem familiar… I think we talked once or twice. Been a while

it’s been largely discussing the next smash after Sora dropped, and other Nintendo games.

I’m also going back to school… sort of. Next week I start a six month IT certification boot camp, one certification a month. It’s all from home, but I hope I can manage and learn them all especially since I’ll be still unemployed for at least the first month. All potential jobs conflict with the first month’s class schedule

You're in high school my guy, a lot of people have an idea on what to do but don't know how to go about it. You're not the only one like this, but at some point you gotta take a risk and go for it. That's part of growing up, it's hard and won't be the last time but being scared won't get you anywhere.

So Pyoro is hinting at two big fracnhisss getting love in the direct.

The first may surprise some but I always thought it was inevitable.

F-Zero

And the second… well a lot of people will be happy:

For the second one, I'm fully expecting that if it even amounts to anything, it's going to be something like Donkey Kong 64 on the Nintendo 64 Online app or maybe an announcement that a Donkey Kong Country movie is in the works rather than a new game. (though hopefully Nintendo proves me wrong, and even then, either of those options would be good)

I really hope for a 3D remake of Namco × Capcom. Or maybe a compilation of that game + the Project × Zone games. I will cry of joy if it's a Remake compilation.

I suppose so. It doesn't help that I grew up a bit differently so it was hard for me to have any IRL friends. I'm trying to do my best I can and think about the present for now. Thanks for the advice though.

Two things, one I drew a quick Maverick Hunter piece, I wanted to do more close-up shots like these, and I felt that Mega Man X was a good place to start. Then I figured I should add Zero and Axl to it.


And the second is this short animation loop I did a while back! Getting more eyes on my work is the tricky part, but I know I've gotten better, so I just gotta keep pushing.

Very, especially compared to how Persona handled things. Didn’t like the Rin story?
Rin best boy.


Vincent (thats his name, right?) did say he didnt give a **** if he was a boy, he still loved him. Its a low bar, sure. But props to atlus for even doing that
Vincent also needed to be with someone he both loved and didn’t turn insane over

I asked them in a cryptic way about Xenoblade Chronicles X, by referencing the opening verse to Uncontrollable

here’s hoping 🙏that game would be the cherry on top

Electric Miku & Rotom

I wasn't expecting Rotom, but it's a cool pairing.

This one got two character sheets, showing she has more than just Rotom: Electivire, Heliolisk, Jolteon, and Mr. Rime.
