im crying

pls sav me

This is the first date with Damien towards the beginning of it, no less. HE'S A VICTORIAN-ERA WEEB SMUT-LOVING GOTH OMFG I CANNOT HANDLE THIS.

I must admit, I do like how the MC interacts with the cast. I'm not a fan of how cartoonish he looks when compared to the rest of the cast, but I guess there's only so much you can do. It'd either be having very few options that are insanely detailed, or many options that are mildly detailed. It's just as funny as Coming Out On Top without the reliance on perverted humor. Not to mention it has many sweet moments. And it has more representation without relying on d***s to keep the player's attention. Like. Then there's stuff like how Damien is transgender AND gave birth to Lucien. Like. Holy ****. That's different.

That aside, Mary and Penny are kweens and I want to marry them both.


Any Brave Bower would probably do, gorlie. Or Reinhardt since he's OP. :^)
I pulled a +Atk/-Spd 4 Star Rein about a month ago but I haven't touched him out of spite. Meanwhile I have Gordin ready to give BB+ to any good archer I get, and I got a +Atk/-Res Innes the other day. I just don't wanna give up Nidhogg...

If it makes you feel any better I have Bride Cordelia (no A slot skill yet, though) and three dancers and I still can't do Valter's Infernal.

But you also don't lose anything by not being able to do it now. As long as you can do Lunatic, you still get a 4* version, and you can get the Infernal reward next time. That's what I did with Legion.

BUT MAGIC IS EVERYTHING

Other good Brave Bowers would probably be Leon, Innes, Jeorge, and Takumi. Or Quadsuna/QuadCandyBoy. Leon also has a nice niche with being one of the few good Close Counter users. Enough SPD to avoid being doubled, enough bulk to soak 1-2 hits, and decent ATK. He even comes with an amazing bow. Close Counter/Quick Riposte/CPassive, booooooooom. But that's just me wanting to have a super cool/different unit that would kick arse in PvE.

I'll probably do it just because he's the first good archer I've ever gotten, and because I don't have any of the Owl users so I can't do an Owl team yet anyways
At least Innes is cool, bleh

do rapiers have increased crit rates in ss? because eirika is insane and crits like everything

it's too bad her strength is low and she doesn't do like any damage with other weapons

Off the top of my head I wanna say they're like +10~15 crit in the GBA games

that would explain why her crit rate is always ~20 and the most any of my other units reaches is 8 (colm)

i'm not sure why i like them so much, but i always use the trainee units in fire emblem games. i used donnel and mozume, and now i'm planning on using ross, amelia, and possibly ewan in this ss playthrough

ss is fun and i'm enjoying it a lot more after taking a break from it and restarting

So today was my first day of college, but staring directly at the sun, yummy montages, and of course mobile waifu simulators Fire Emblurm Heroos are more important.
It's different from high school but I'll probably like it. Pretty sure I'm only going to have 2 classes this term because I signed up for classes late (blame Europe tbh) so I should ease into it well enough.

Also Infernal Valter makes me hate Heroes. Sorry I don't have Brave Bridelia and 3 dancers, IntSys, but you don't need to punish me for it.
Infernal Valter is infuriating. I tried to replicate a strategy by Ventus with a +Spd, -Def Gordin, but it stops working after Valter dies because the sword knight's like, "YES, WEAK BOY FLESH!!!", and follows him instead of Ursula. Then I got mad, tried to figure out alternatives, burned several stamina potions because of that, stopped, burned more stamina potions, grinded TT to vent, and now I'm up to 70k points. 29k more to go so I can have 28 total orbs as a safety net. Stupid barefoot, dragon riding a wyvern not showing up. MEH.

Infernal Valter with 4* units: +Def, -HP Donnel, +Atk, -Res Gordin, Olivia, and Ursula: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGmCJsdRGGs. Donnel needs to have higher defense which is why I tried it since =Def Donnel has higher defense than -Def Gordin. Alternatively, Ephraim and Lukas with Brave Lance works. Somehow, someone in the comments got a -Atk 4* Gordin to work with Lancebreaker 1 and I think someone mentioned Mathilda works instead of Ursula of all characters to swap out. That or they got inspired and used Mathilda with a different team.

Anyway, Valter sharing a voice with Benny and Fuga is a bit weird, but cool.

When the new candy-related ARMS character comes out, I'm gonna make a montage video as an excuse to use the song Yummy in a video. Well, that is if I'm not 100% pure garbage with them.

Speaking of, when are they releasing the new character? It's been teased for weeks and ARMS has had no new content lately when it already had a pretty small amount.
And only about 12 hours later...
She basically has Helix's arms (a Blinding one and a shield) but the blinding is also another Hydra soooo, fun stuff! Who knows what the nunchucks will be like for now tho.

Edit: Also more FE Warriors characters announced. Camilla, Leo, Hinoka, and Takumi. So all the characters that we REALLY expected because of... unique reasons.
Well, except Hinoka. She's one of the main characters of Fates but is also completely irrelevant.

Morning Capcom Doesn't Know What To Do With Him mains. How's everyone doing? :4megaman:

Listening to the Final Boss theme from Sonic Mania. It's too damn good! <3

I've also played through a bit of Splatoon 2's Singleplayer campaign. Already onto World 3, missing out one collectible in I think it's in Stage 9. Just couldn't find it even within an enclosed area. amh. But I do plan on finishing the Singleplayer Campaign (I probably won't get all the powerup collectibles), then afterwards I'll go online. :yeahboi:

Out of any show you've ever watched, what's the one villain that turned out to be way less intimidating than it seemed he was going to be when first shown?
I'm just asking since I've gotten to Semi-Perfect Cell's first appearance in Kai, and the most memorable things about that form of Cell is him getting stalled by Tien and getting absolutely humiliated by Vegeta.

Speaking of Dragon Ball.

Newest trailer for DBFZ came out. Properly revealing Picollo, Krillin, 16 and 18 (With 17). I like one little detail is that if you do Android 18's Cinematic Super while you have Krillin on your team. He'll do the super with her instead of Android 17. That is a very nice bit of detail.

so true

hinoka's entire personality is "corrin got kidnapped so i learned to fight so i could rescue her!" like, there's basically nothing else to her character

even sakura is more interesting and she's literally just, "i'm your little sister and ily<3" incarnate

tbh all of the fates royals are hilariously stereotyped and awful, but at least marx is hot

blizzard confirmed that they're testing new changes with dva. reducing matrix's uptime by 50% (2 sec uptime) and giving her a new ability: micro-missiles. you can use this ability while firing with fusion cannons, or while using any ability (including defense matrix). these missiles have a small explosive radius. dva can also fire fusion cannons while using boosters

i think the people who think dva is going to become squishier and easier to kill do not understand how insane it is to attack while matrixing. assuming that these missiles deal a lot of damage, dva can almost win any 1v1. only issue with the matrix nerf is that she won't have enough resources to guard winston, peel for support, defend for herself and watch out for any incoming ultimates. honestly, the idea of a single mouse press nullifying an ultimate is a bizarre concept so i'm fine with that. i'm guessing that dva players are probably gonna conserve their matrix for strictly guarding support but blanketing them with matrix won't be enough so they'll probably need to learn how to aim or land the missiles

i'd say that isn't a bad change but this has to be in ptr first if anyone wants a firm grasp on the idea. it's gonna come out probably around this week maybe

so i read that it's better to wait until level 20 to promote units in sacred stones than to just insta-promote at level 10 like in fates/awakening?

my units are only like level 9 atm, so it'll be a while if i do promote at 20

Waiting until 20 to promote in older games is highly recommended because you don't have an unlimited amount of levels like in 3DS FE. If you promote early, you can end up shooting your units in the foot over the course of the game because you missed on those extra stat gains you would've got if they stayed unpromoted.

okay, that's what i thought

but i did insta-promote neimi into a ranger so she wouldn't be absolutely helpless during the enemy phase

i'll wait until 20 for the rest of my units

edit: dancers not being able to attack is kinda weird, but it's not like they're that good in combat anyway, so i guess it's not that big of a deal. i really like tethys' design

Oh oops I promoted Ross into a pirate right away
Thankfully I haven't played nearly as much as I should have so he's been my only promotion so far

the 3 trainee units (ross, amelia, ewan) auto-promote when you get them to level 10 of their starting class (journeyman, recruit, and pupil, respectively)

you want to get them out of their starting classes as soon as possible because the growths/caps are trash

i was referring to using the items to promote them into the tier 2 classes

Hinoka's voice is god awful too. Though tbh I did like her in Fates. I never really expect in depth characters from Fire Emblem since each game has about 30~50 separate units. She did the Warrior Princess trope quite well, as 2D as that is. I'm probably in the minority here, but I rather liked all the characters but especially Takumi since he had "the realest" reaction to Corrin's continued presence.

so true

hinoka's entire personality is "corrin got kidnapped so i learned to fight so i could rescue her!" like, there's basically nothing else to her character

Xander is so hot omg. Both of the older Sword Bros are hot. However, they're also extremely stupid since the reason (INSERT BAD THING) happens is "bcuz im prince n dis is da onli way dis can end!!!" f***ers pls.

marx>ryouma, but yeah, they're both attractive

and i don't think i ever mentioned it here, but i played through fates as bjn. i named my avatar after ha and proceeded to be a sass queen who had a weird thing for marrying her older brothers (which is pretty ****ed up; the explanations for how they can get married to corrin are so dumb). i can't remember who i married in revelations, but it might have been odin since he's the hottest guy in fates

yeah, birthright and conquest's endings are so melodramatic and i love them (even though they're really, really bad). and then revelations' ending is like, "we're all happy and WE LOVE YOU!!!!!"

here's to hoping they hire competent writers for the next fe game

FE Warriors has a Europe release date; 20 October. Yes, Mario Odyssey releases just 1 week later on the 27th. Europe is also getting a special edition.

So from this we can conclude that Japan will get 2 special editions that are both better, and it will release for them on... idk 22 September?Edit: Nevermind it's been confirmed 9/28 there for a while. I was close tho. Meanwhile NA will enough special editions for 5 lucky people (and the special edition will only include the game and nothing else, this is the only way to get the game. So only 5 people in the region will be able to buy the game, good luck :secretkpop2.0:), plus it will only be sold at the Nintendo Store in NYC, and it will release December 28th of 2018. The game will also have only half of the content of the other 2 regions' plus buggy gameplay and more typos while every other regions' games work fine.
I'm making a European account to download it from there.

Neimi and healers are an exception to the wait till level 20 rule.

Hinoka, Camilla, and Takumi gameplay up:
First of all, the intro and victory cutscenes are finally in English.
Hinoka looks like she is really unsafe during her moves. Maybe it was because GXplain only spammed the one combo where she stands for the most part completely still, makes a golden traingle on the ground and it explodes with pretty lights (wait a second...) Also 0/10 not enough Hinokacopter.
I expected Camilla to be slow and powerful. She's just powerful and isn't that slow. Also she got a superglue axe similar to Lissa's
Takumi... Linkle did it better ngl. He looks like he has more effective range tho.

I mostly wanted to see Leo but I guess I'll have to wait. :/

That golden triangle... Don't Zelda, young Link, and I think someone else have that in Hyrule Warriors? Aside from that, it reminds me of the Hojo clan crest which is a Triforce or rather, the Triforce is the Hojo clan crest. Anyway, kind of makes sense since Hoshido is a Japan of Fire Emblem. Also, yeah, needs more Hinokopter. :p

Aww, Camilla doesn't seem to use much magic in her attacks despite being a Malig Knight. Kind of wished she did since it would make her very distinct from other wyvern riders. *cough*Cherche*cough*

Takumi's like a younger Huang Zhong to me after I think Dynasty Warriors 7 where they settled on him using exclusively bows instead of only a dao despite being known for his archery skills and then a dao, but with bow attacks as combo enders. I think some other characters ended up being coming bow-only characters by DW7. Xiahou Yuan is probably one of them since I remember him being the club and bow guy to Huang Zhong's dao and bow old man in DW4 and 5. Aww, I just checked and apparently he switched back to using clubs/rods/giant iron stick things in the upcoming DW9. That's supposed to be Taishi Ci's shtick.

Anyway, I just watched an UNIEL introduction to Yuzuriha and yep, she's like Juri and Vergil combined. I think I would want to main her, but I'd fail horribly. :p

Her stance system kind of works like SFIV Juri's Fuhajin where if you hold down a button after inputting a special move, you can store it. Differences are that Juri stores a projectile while Yuzu enters a stance to ready her physical, but long-ranged attack and I think Juri retains full mobility -- as full as someone can remain dexterous while keeping one finger holding a button -- while Yuzu can still move, but much slower excepting for jumping where she jumps higher and faster; she can still dash and dodge if you input down/2 twice. Still way more mobility than Vergil's Judgement Cut in DMC games since he cannot move at all. Speaking of whom, she also has a command teleport that reminds me of Vergil's Dark Slayer style Tricks, but other characters have moves like that such as Ibuki. There's probably another character who works like this, but considering she uses a nodachi and has quick-draw slashes, she really reminds me of Vergil, but if he, in a fighting game, played like Juri -- sort of.

Gar: This game is making me gayer.

They've been really emphasizing 1-weapon loadouts so far so I'm wondering if either they'll gain more weapons (and therefore combos) after promoting, or if they really do want just 1-weapon characters. The only exception to this so far is the Robins who use tomes and a Levin Sword, but I think the Levin Sword is just used as a prop for a few attacks, while the tomes are the main weapon. So while - for example - Camilla did start out as a Malig Knight, maybe they temporarily downgraded her to a Wyvern Rider where she can only use axes, then she can promote back to a Malig Knight and use magic again.
I just want Dark Flier Cordy with a fun mix of lanceplay and magic tbh. At least that would differentiate her from Hinoka. Ignore the fact that we have 7 or however many swordfighters that are all pretty samey

Also I found people who actually somewhat knew what they were doing while playing the game and Takumi looks a lot better here. He has some nice traps and could be a potential combo monster. Xander still looks like the best character so far tho.

I had free orbs so I went to summon for Innes (COME HOME TO ME, I'LL TIE UP EPH AT THE STAKE SO YOU CAN USE HIM FOR TARGET PRACTICE OR WHATEVER. I NEED AN ARCHERRRRR). I accidentally went over too many banners and summoned from the Tempest banner. So I was just going to summon from 1 orb and leave.
That 1 orb had Delthea.
sGn3WAv.png
I am okay with this
sGn3WAv.png

She's +Res -HP which is absolutely fine with me. So now I have to rush to try to get her up to level 40 before the Tempest ends so that she can build up a nice SP reserve. Thinking about Iceberg/Darting Blow or Fury idk yet/Desperation/Drive Atk while keeping her normal tome for obvious reasons.

Morning Sonic Mania Is Amazing! mains. How's everyone doing? :4sonic:

Going to be going out with my Dad to a local cafe for lunch. So that's going to be great!
I've made more progress in Splatoon 2's Singleplayer campaign. Though I'm missing one of the fish in I think it's World 2. Where you fight the Octolings in one of the Arenas. I need to look around more thoroughly to get that fish (Since they're sometimes lurking inside the Octo ink).

I've also managed to get all the Blue Sphere stages cleared in Sonic Mania! But I need to get 7 more Gold Medals, and that is going to be "fun".

Here's a game. This is going to be the cast of an upcoming anime. Name it.
Lavani: Origins

It's about a real gamer gorl who is the best speedrunner in the world. She is afraid of going outside in the real world and actually proving her greatness and she becomes so involved with the games she actually is sucked inside them, learning all the frame data and hidden mechanics of the game. Then one day something happens and...


You get the gist.
