Ghost Busters Fantasy or Science-Fiction?
-
All Xion too.And Namine is an empty vessel. That's all Xehanort needs. Sowhat if she's a Nobody of aprincess of heart, All that's required is for her to either have no heart, or have a weak enough heart that Xehanort can overwhelm it.

KHDays So if the Ice Cream line is good...
Gambler'sApprentice replied to hatok's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
Xion is a bit of a flat character, but first, that's not necessarily bad. That's what almost everyone is. Xemnas is the megalomaniacal overlord, Luxord is the gambler, Axel's the passive-agressive, and Larxene's the b*. The only characters that show some serious depth are Xaldin, mostly due to the intensity with which he hates, rages, and despises love, and Xigbar, who for all his indications that he doesn't care, wonders if the mistakes of the past can ever be undone. Second, she has the capacity, and some signs, of growth. She can become a more interesting and dynamic charcater, and that's the Xion I want to see. Rather than a Xion who apologizes for her own existence asif it were some stain and then cleans up after herself. -
Yes, but considering he practically one shot Eraqus I think it's a realistic assessment of power levels Then he has a being of pure darkness, who hecould use to merge with someone of pure light. Perhaps he was even going (slowly) about making 13 darknesses, but when he realized he had two pure hearts, he thought it was a shortcut How is this a flaw? He knows what his Keyblade can do. One of his/its powers is realizing the darkness in people's hearts, and giving it identity. Eraqus is too trusting. I think that's pretty well established, and since Xehanort spent years with himi, I would expect him to know this. See above. Eraqus believes in complete destruction of darkness, there's no way he would pass Terra after that complete rampage of destruction. *sarcasm* Why would he do this? Anyways, the MoM was more of a tool for him to use on Terra, Aqua didn't really figure into his plans that much. Vanitas gives Xehanort information about Ventus' mind. He values Terra too much to think rationally. See above. Um... Best guess, people who use darkness tend to suck at team-ups. Still,it would have brought down his plan, I admit. And then he runs away again, and we wasted a cutscene. To put it kindly, Terra's dumb. I doubt he's figured it out yet. She didn't say he's done bad things, she said she's seen the effects of his actions, and she doesn't think good actions can have bad consequences (she's Terra's apprentice, that mindset makes sense) By this point they're on different missions, Terra is after Vanitas and seeks to save Xehanort, Ventus is chasing Terra, and Aqua is after the Unversed and both of them. Terra's still dumb. And I doubt he thought it through. The encouraging of Terra's darkness is all Xehanort has been doing. And the use of darkness is what allowed him to win. If hedidn't use it he wasn't a worthy vessel. Instead of falling to the ground exhausted? Yes, but she didn't have any more energy (except on my replay. Where she pwned him and had full health and barely spent any time) Xehanort's plan at the time was only Ventus+Vanitas=X-Blade & Xehanort+Darkness+Terra=New Body! He didn't care about Riku at the time. See above only change Riku to Kairi. Terra respects Xehanort, and figures talking to his friend is of less importance than talking to the Keyblade Master who he believes to be his single greatest ally. Eraqus' character dictates he would do anything to prevent the creation of such a dangerous darkness. Xehanort knows this. See above. Add a sense of betrayal. I tried that several times. All that happens is angry Eraqus kills you. It's not an option. Eraqus got all Saix on us. Terra killed Eraqus. Xehanort used him, but Terra struck the fatal blow. But as for Terra losing to Eraqus, that would have derailed his plans. I personally think he just sees Darkness as stronger than Light. Ventus was there to save his friends, Terra was there to get revenge and Aqua DID wreck his plans. So it's the fact that all three showed up that blew up in his face. Terra would use Darkness before dying, so Xehanort would win. Ventus would be weakened before dying, so Vanitas could merge and form a X-Blade. If Aqua had died he'd have won. Yeah, but Yen Sid likes to be vague and mysterious. He did. Lingering Sentiment battle? Extra cutscene? He just didn't win. Then Vanitas would fight Ventus WHILE Aqua fought Braig. Not exactly about to wreck his plans. His method for X-Blade creation at the time was 1 Darkness + 1 Light, not 13 Darknesses + 7 Lights. Xehanort didn't care about Sora at that time From the realm of Darkness I presume? Yes this would have derailed his plans, but losing his memories, losing to Aqua, and probably even fighting Aqua probably weren't either. Why does he care? Um... That's what he wanted. If he had done that he would have won. Xehanort changes his plan to fit the environment, but his final goal remains the same, to merge with Kingdom Hearts and use it to create a new world with him as a god. He doesn't have a schedule, with everything having to happen in a precise order, rather he manipulates people and plays off their ignorance. Yes, his plan has flaws, but he keeps adjusting it to reach his final goal. That's why it's so crazy, he hasn't laid out a master stratagem he establishes the minimum requirements, and then lets events unfold in such a way that meets a requirement.

To all of those wanting a KH Movie
Gambler'sApprentice replied to Isamu Kuno's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
A stream of cutscenes does not a movie make. I wanted a movie about the BBS - KH gap, and while I like voiced HD Days cutscenes, it's not going to answer questions (most likely) which is what I really wanted. -
Indeed.

This makes up for your dreadful Batman comments. You are no longer dead to me!You are Zombie XaonShock. Tesla.The winniest. I'm reading the Prestige right now, Tesla is the best character.

Stupid English class, made me miss... all the... useful... stuff... you guys... shared. OK. This forum got weird. [insert witty/pithy comment]

20 bucks if you can do it in a lava pit.

If you were a Video Game Antagonist...
Gambler'sApprentice replied to CloakedSchemerX's topic in Random & Forum Games
Form an intergalctic empire, spanning the entire width of the Milky Way. Personal combat wouldn't be my preferred area, rather, commanding my forces from the shadows. I would also be completely ruthless, willing to destroy systems to ensure the hero's actions would not cause instability. I wouldn't have a theme, I don't fight. -
I stand by my statement. I'm not entirely sure it makes sense, but it sounds like it hints at a greater Truth.
-
My mental is a zombie, health is irrelevant.
-
I mean, they all have the same name and face.
-
Yes there is. One is as many of anything as should exist. Of course with certain specificity.
-
Eek!That's a lot of Takei.
-
They might make some small continuity errors, such as the reports, but I don't think we'll get anything major. It makes it too obvious this is going to be more relevant then previously thought if they give extra focus on a previously small area.
-
Yeah...I just find it vaguely creepy.
-
They probably fear there mindless nattering would seem dreary and dull compared to our super important conversations.But hey, it's been a distraction, so goal accomplished!
-
You should rectify that.I need to watch the final three episodes and then I'm onto Dr. Who. Have you noticed 95% of the time if we have a discussion on a forum it withers away to only that?
-
Red Dwarf started in 1992. I don't think the word lately applies.
-
British Sci-Fi comedy.I figured you might since you watch Dr. Who.

Yeah, genocide makes you a terrible person. The others are better. And I will admit of all DC powers I'd want a Lantern Ring most.But he's BOOSTER. He's a good person, but sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cheesy. I just can't get excited about Aquaman. He's awesome, but I find him uncompelling. It's rather cliche by this point. If a superhero could launch explosive snot bubbles at their enemies that's be unique, that doesn't mean it'd be good. On a separate topic, do you watch Red Dwarf?
-
You'd have to learn Japanese. What if you were a super-intelligent amphibian?
-
Would this be the Green Lantern that went about genociding?Booster Gold. Really? You've got to be messing with me. Booster Gold? Alright, Blue Beetle's pretty cool. Superman? How is he better than Batman? He's a walking Deus ex Machina. Also he's boring. In a good way, but still, he's like chocolate ice cream, good, but uniformly good. Wonder Woman. OK, she's pretty awesome. Aqua Man? That's just silly. Aqua Lad is cool, and Aqua Man isn't bad, just... well... meh. Shazam? Alright, kinda wierd choice, and I don't think he's better, but I understand the view. Green Arrow is silly. Super-Archers are silly. And that's without the fist-arrow. Firestorm... well... I just think being two people is a handicap that should prevent success in the super-hero field.

The truth that what? Batman has the coolest enemies, coolest weapons, coolest side character (Nightwing, For the Win, if you please) and best motivation. Who do you think beats him? Besides Demyx.
