Not really sure why people **** on Morgana and love characters such as Ganondorf or Wolf.

BECAUSE MORGANA ISN'T A ****ING VILLAIN.

 

[UtopianPoyzin]

Honestly, I think this one line from Haru summarizes my feelings on Morgana quite well.

Don't worry about the context.

Yo could you spoiler that? I mean there aren't many ways to interpret that, and each of those interpretations are pretty close to accurate.

Spoiler

Also you leaked a late game party member.

I've already played through the game so it doesn't bother me, but there are plenty of people who haven't. People will have a good idea what the context is from this image. Just out of respect.

you're about to take the full force of an anime
it'll kill you

I've got this.

BECAUSE MORGANA ISN'T A ****ING VILLAIN.

Coulda fooled me


Honestly I don’t hate him but I really don’t love him looool

 

[Gentlepanda]

would you rather spend 10 days with morgana or 20 days with teddie

 

[Hinata]

Look, all I'm saying is you don't ever see Koromaru perving over Yukari or Mitsuru.

Teddie and Morgana should be more like Koromaru.

 

[Metal Shop X]

Morgana take inspiration from Zorro.

I like Zorro.

I like Morgana.


Here you go.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Ok but could ya not spoil that for me?

Also yeah it's unreasonable, but in the end he is still a good character. Not really sure why people **** on Morgana and love characters such as Ganondorf or Wolf. Morgana is a character in the game, and giving him flaws such as that is just good writing.

My dude are you seriously pulling the "At least he's not as bad as villains" card again like you did with Kamoshida? Because this isn't even a good argument, your argument here is "At least he isn't as bad as the people we're supposed to hate!"

You lose literally nothing from not watching Agents of SHIELD

I mean, Ghost Rider's is there and Ghost Rider's getting a show later so there's that

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

I feel like Pokémon has gotten incredibly easy since X and Y. There were parts in Gen 5 that were tough, but overall I think Ultra Sun and Moon were the hardest for me.

If you want a hard mode, not using the exp share will add some difficulty. But I do think the game itself should just be harder. In RPG games, bosses will sometimes use strategies that need to be countered in order to win.

Considering the depth of the Pokémon meta, I think Gym leaders could absolutely present a type, but then style of play. Makes it much more rewarding to have a strategy and diverse typing or jobs on the team.

Think like Battle Tree-lite, until you get to actual post-game.

in persona 3: the velvet for ps4, koromaru now becomes human and is voiced by gilbert gottfried

he pervs on all the girls and ken

 

[Pyra]

There are a ton of characters I give a pass to either cause they get enough **** in the show for being degenerates or their other qualities make up for the hamfisted anime pervert trope

Morgana has waaaay more things that I dislike about him than the Ann obsession

I like some things too

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Honestly to me it seems like having Morgana **** on Ryuji was an attempt to give him more depth to his character, and prove that he has imperfections, just like anyone.

Just my take on it though.

My siblings love that show, but I just am not in the mood to watch it.
It looks good, but I do not know what is preventing me. My willingness to do other things?

Part of the reason Pokemon feels too easy is because every game is made as if nobody has ever played a Pokemon game before. Hell, people said Sun and Moon were hard with **** like the Totem Pokemon but those were piss easy for me and there's not a single trainer in the main game who had a full team of 6 pokemon iirc

Ah yes, a late game party member who is in all the promotional material, Smash, the title and boot-up screen and literally just as well known as the others. and I cut off the date for a reason, which honestly removes the majority of the 'context'.

But regardless, sure, spoiler tag I guess. Having to talk about it removes that lack of context.

 

[Deleted member]

I never played Persona 5, but Persona 5 has been spoiled a little bit for me.
I will try Persona 5 someday.

I've got this.

i'm like 90% sure hemsworth saw evans filming the helicopter scene in civil war and was like "ay gimme one of those but x10"

 

[osby]

Morgana.

Teddie is a better character by a mile but he's also a baby and I probably wouldn't get along with him well.

 

[Knight Dude]

Man, Card Saga Wars just doesn't want to download for me. I just want to see some Master Chief and MMX combos.

Totem Lurantis was a ****ing pain in the ass for me.

Like I can't remember if others battle were difficults, but that one is still THE one I remember struggling for awhile.

That's not what I said.

I was just saying if we are applying that logic to Morgana it seems a bit odd to not apply it to other characters. It was more so an open thought and not an argument.

[Megadoomer]

I've only finished the fourth palace of Persona 5, but I'm generally okay with Morgana. His current behaviour is rather weird (especially since the entire problem could be solved if he simply talked to people instead of running off on his own in an attempt at proving his worth), but it's been built up, at least.

 

[Deleted member]

What gets me about Pokemon is that there is so much room to do something new. A pokemon game only has to be called pokemon to sell millions, but the games still play it so safe.

 

[Gentlepanda]

the games still play it so safe.

because literally nothing else will ever come close to competing with it, so they don't need to take risks or do anything crazy experimental

yokai watch tried and now look where it is

The other characters you brought up are literally the villains. The bad guys. The people who do th naughty things and need to be stopped. Morgana is supposed to be one of the heroes, the good guys, the kind of people who see someone drop their wallet and go "Hey, you dropped this" and kindly return it to them. You shouldn't be comparing Morgana to the literal King of Evil

 

[Idon]

It's actually doing pretty well, but okay.

 

[Roberk]

Less risk and experimentation = more profit. Game Freak sees no reason to bother if they can half-ass a game and still get very positive aggregate reviews and a few dozen million sales.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

It's not just playing it safe all the time that bugs me, but it's the forced tutorials, the lack of proper difficulty options, the need to introduce a new gimmick and then immediately discard the gimmick one game later that bugs me

I picked Popplio if I remember well (been a few years since I played that game lol), and I think I wasn't going off my way to grind at that time, sooooo, you can guess what happened the first time through.

I’d argue that’s entirely true.

However, I think they can maintain that feel of “someone’s first Pokémon” while also teaching how to approach the meta. I guess they kind of do that with stuff such as Rock type + lotsa defense curl, but I think it would be actually interesting to see Battle Tree type teams in regular gyms.

Or better yet, maybe part of the post-game could be revisiting the gyms and they have better teams and strategies.

Of course, i’ll never be totally satisfied. Mainly because my vision of Pokémon isn’t like, real time battles, but extensive post-game content, traveling with friends through caves (like the anime), and full side quests that give you good comp items and necessary items to engage legendaries with.

Like the nostalgia of Legendary hunting keeps me thinks back to older games all the time. But I think to innovate or try new things, side quests in-game are the way to go. I personally wish they would do that rather than the “get X item by signing in online!” Not just because it’s weird, but there are certainly folks out there who might have Pokémon, but don’t have Internet.

Pokémon is like, tied for my favorite series though. So I could go on forever.

Welp...

Guess Level-5's gonna have to do other stuff then.

His current behaviour is rather weird (especially since the entire problem could be solved if he simply talked to people instead of running off on his own in an attempt at proving his worth), but it's been built up, at least.

I think at that part of the game, he still tries hard to not damage his "hardcore thief who needs nobody's help" image.

To be honest, I can relate to his mindset during his escape. Morgana has nothing in life that grounds him except his role in the team. Losing his role to Futaba must have felt like losing his purpose in life. Escaping the source of his shock rather than confronting it seems like an overtly emotional but understandable thing to do.

That being said, I think both Ryuji and Morgana were being dumb.

 

[Alternis]

It just feels more obvious when Zelda pulled out Breath of the Wild, risking all it's long time fans with a wholly new gameplay style. If that huge brand can take such a risk, why can't Pokemon? At least that's what I think.

 

[UtopianPoyzin]

Is he, though? It seems like he just loves to downplay Ryuji's accomplishments just because he can, and then when Ryuji does the same thing even once, Morgana can't handle it and runs off, because he's a huge ****in' hypocrite.

The last thing you said was a development of their character, meaning that life isn't always about becoming a human and that I actually have to be a good teammate as well. The first bit, I don't think Morgana downplays Ryuji's accomplishments in particular. However, I will agree that Morgana heavily emphasizes any mistakes Ryuji makes to make himself seem more valuable than the others, which once again is part of his character about wanting to be important, which is why he's a smartass early on and makes jokes out of Ryuji not really knowing how anything works in the metaverse.

Ryuji doesn't bring up "Lady Ann" in half of his dialogue, and make several attempts to flirt with her.

It's pretty telling that in the P5R trailer, when Morgana became human, they chose to focus on him fantasizing about what he could do with Ann now that he was a human.

Oh, I gotcha! So what Ryuji does with practically every other female in the game besides Ann? Also I interpret Morgana as saying "Lady Ann" in a means of glorification rather than pervertedness.

Except I never drew a comparison. I was just putting a genuine thought out there. Want meant to come off as aggressive,
