Watched episode 14 of FMA:B yesterday. For you stragglers wondering what's the point of this version now's the time to find out. The divergence between the old anime and the new one has finally occurred, and damn, if the showdown between Wrath and Greed wasn't awesome. Much better than Greed's throwdown with Ed in the old version. |

Plus, the Queen of the Netherworld has, hands down, the greatest boobs in any game, anime, movie, manga, or otherwise not real––ever. Too bad she's a giant fucking bitch.
Too bad that she's nothing but bone beneath those dirty pillows. Anyways BtB has made a complete 180 since my last update. I knew that getting my cursed character decursedifiyed would make my life easier but now I'm sittin' in the Imperial Throne like it was nothing. Too bad I never saw that Monk go by (two frontline fighters rock but three fighters would help me demolish everything that looked at me funny). :( Anyway, beat that one mission in FM1 with the SAMs. Finally. Still trying to figure out what a good tradeoff between defenseness and speed is. I guess lighter mechs move faster, so I MIGHT want to remove missile launchers from some people, or switch over to those Missile Launcher Arms. It looks like the current mission is one where I'd benefit from being an immobile wall of bullets though.
There's no need for launcher arms. Legs are the sole factor on how far you move per turn. And weight is there so you don't go overboard in loading out your mechs. Engine output only determines what your weight capacity will be and you can augment that with backpacks (and certain legs too). Also finally decided to tackle the next story mission in FFTA2. |

I wonder if bald women would appear more in Western games.
That being said, then the women that look like men in Western games would be definitely true!
Either way its still better than men that look like women in Eastern games. |

I've only played Riviera which is a decent game but my god I'm like grinding for about 10 minutes after every other battle. The one awesome thing about this series is that they're probably the most innovative RPGs out there. And since they've done a Dating-Sim RPG, a Strategy RPG, a Shoot'em Up RPG, and (counting the one in development hell) an MMO RPG. I suspect that the next game will probably be an Action/Adventure RPG, followed up by a Puzzle RPG, then a Racing RPG, probably a FPS RPG, and then perhaps ending with a WTF is this shit! RPG (or something to that effect).

Ugh. No man. No. We're trying to recommend good games to him. |

Xenogears... Yea a bit I think. Fei and Elly have sex right? It's a safe bet, yeah, but you don't see/hear anything except that when they're talking the next morning she doesn't seem to be wearing clothes. (Not that you see anything other than bare shoulders, I think.) That doesn't really matter though since you get the full frontal during the game's ending sequence. |

One time in SSF2THD I beat this Sagat fireball spammer by using Fei Long, and he messaged me afterwards calling me a cheater. :(
People tend to be quite the sore losers when it comes to online-gaming. Fixed. People will rage-quit even from LoZ:Phantom Hourglass. |

I thought RPGs used to be one genre... Now it's JRPG and WRPG.
SUBGENRES MOTHERFUCKER No seriously, think of how action RPGs aren't simply called RPGs, and how JRPGs/WRPGs are typically at least as different from each other as Action RPGs are from turn-based RPGs or tactical RPGs. With that it makes sense to go JRPGs and WRPGs, they aren't really different genres since they fall under the same umbrella, but they're different enough to deserve seperate labels. Plus if Namco can be twits and give each Tales its own 'thematic genre' then JRPG/WRPG is innocent enough. Prime Mover: You fucked up and put WRPGs where you meant to put MMOs. Or perhaps just Everquest-based MMOs, whatever. Damn subgenres. Making things harder. Action RPG, SRPG, WRPG, JRPG, WTFRPG = RPG I just hate it when people go WRPG vs. JRPG or when lots of people don't claim Valkyria Chronicles as an RPG (SRPG) but a Strategy Shooter something something. So what do you call a Knights in the Nightmare? |

i have only played DQ8 and DQ1 i thought DQ1 was pretty good at the time when i played it. i mean hurtmore and healmore are totally awesome names for spells. i however thought DQ8 was total ass,and am having a hard time understanding why it is so beloved here. in dungeons i often found myself running from every fight to perserve my resources for bosses since i could not figure out an efficient way to dispatch normal enemies. compounding this was the fact that mp restoring item appeared to be incredibly rare. wich led to me being under leveled. and when i tried to grind to get some levels it took FOREVER to level so i eventually said fuck this and sold it back to gamestop. if i remember correctly i think the lost boss i fought was dhoulmagus and he makes 2 clones or something. it was almost like an mmo where you have to go back to town anytime you want to heal.
Did you realize that there is a healing pool like two rooms away from the guy that restores both HP and MP. Moreover there's an ability called Cherub's Arrow that Angelo can learn (and it only costs 18 Skill Points to learn). It's a free skill that deals normal damage with each hit and returns a small percentage of the damage back to Angelo as free MP (and Bows are his best weapon until you get the Uber Falcon Blade). Also Casinos are fairly easy to abuse in this game compared to other DQ games and you can easily stock up on Magic Waters at the first Casino pretty quickly. |
