  1. He raises some good points, and I mostly agree with them. Some points he makes I'd like to expand on though. There are plenty of things to use miranium and credits on, but it's more oriented towards endgame, which I assume he hasn't really touched at all. In fact, most people have trouble finding a good way to have enough without looking at a guide. I don't really understand how he thinks the customization for each party member is unintuitive. There are plenty of options for each character, and it feels like there's so many ways to go about equipping everyone with the new arms manufacturers. The soundtrack I can see why people dislike it, but it grew on me after a while. It's an unusual OST to be sure, but I don't think it's inherently bad. The way the monsters are set up I think makes it more immersive. Mira is a hostile planet, and won't always be streamlined to fit the path you're taking. There has to be something ridiculous along the way, or else the world wouldn't feel as alive and dangerous. It's a good review, and highlights some flaws that's sometimes overlooked when talking about the game, like how it doesn't teach you certain game mechanics unless you look up a guide (Overdrive and Augments), and how some of the characters do seem a bit flat in character development, even after doing their affinity and heart to heart missions, specifically Lin and Doug.
  2. Don't they usually have some sort of centralized thread for codes? Don't frequent the subreddit often, but that should be the case if they don't do that already. I can't imagine having to sift through all the code begging threads. Edit: Here's the thread for it lol. Don't think you'll be able to comment since you're banned, but you'll probably want to PM someone who says they have a code to give away.
  3. Shinsekai Yori is my #1 pick for this one. Unfortunately, YouTube doesn't have this one on deck, so here's a snazzy band cover. Or, you can have the real one at this link. Kyoukai no Kanata has a great ED, possibly the best thing to come out of the anime save the animation itself. Psycho-Pass, but the 2nd ED instead of the 1st. Anohana is pretty dramatic, and this ED fits it perfectly. Cowboy Bebop is the classic this time around.
  4. What to watch this season: Sekkou Boys. That's it.

      JoJo is a no-go this season.

  5. Man, people took most of my favorites already. Parasyte, Psycho-Pass OP2, Madoka Magica, Cowboy Bebop, TWGOK, Death Parade, FMA:B OP1, Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, Noragami, Fate/Stay Night: UBW OP2, and of course, Steins;Gate. However, I still got some to show off. My #1 pick that hasn't been listed yet has to be Baccano. One that aired last season, The Perfect Insider. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be an unedited version of this opening on Youtube, so here's a cover of it. One of my favorite anime, Welcome to the NHK. Any of Durarara's openings. Seriously, I like every single one of them. I doubt you want to be bombarded with all of them, so here's my favorite one. And to end it off with a classic, Trigun. I'd better stop myself before I steal everyone else's favorites.

  7. Rivals of Aether is super fun. Smash Bros inspired game that feels so rewarding.

  8. I finished up the game. Since I said what I wanted to say that doesn't go into spoiler territory already, I'll expand on the story here, specifically the last few chapters. Also, here's a good picture I grabbed
  9. http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/12/24/people-are-free-to-criticize-but-dont-lose-faith/ Respecting this site's wishes, I only quoted the first two paragraphs, but it does shit in telling what this article is about. Basically, Sakurai leads into how there is a vocal minority that constantly complains about the negative aspects in a piece of media without weighing in the positives. It's a good read about how Sakurai thinks about recent complaints of the additions to the Smash roster.

  11. I've been playing this game for about 60 hours or so, and just finished Chapter 7. Here are my thoughts on it so far. Gameplay: It improves on Xenoblade Chronicles so much. Array of new weapons and combat systems. Weapons/Classes: The weapons seem similar on the surface. Close range and long range. However, the arts that are attached to each weapon are unique and give each weapon its own role. For example, the shield has a tank role, the knife a debuff role, and the dual weapons a DPS role. I really can't decide which weapons to take in the end. There's just so many options. You can even mix and match the weapons after you max out a class branch. Right now, I have the Assault Rifle and the Photon Saber, and I've been getting so much burst damage in. Combat System: As you progress through the game, you get access to more layers of combat. Secondary cooldown, overdrive, augments, battle menu, soul voices. It keeps the game interesting. It gets deeper and deeper, but not too bad where I felt overwhelmed. They introduced what the game had to offer in a paced manner, and the mechanics aren't necessary to enjoy this game on the surface level. Invites the casual and min/maxing players. Story; Not much to say right now, since I'm not done yet. It's not as engaging as the previous game, but it's still slightly enjoyable. One thing I'm bugged about is how we're restricted to Elma and Lin for the story missions so far, and it doesn't seem like they're going to lift that anytime soon. I wish I could play with more characters during that time, but it's not that major, since I spend much more time doing missions and quests, which i dedicate my other members to. Characters: I have 16 characters right now. Each of them has their own personality, although some may seem shallow at first. I'm pretty impressed how many different characters you can get, and how they're each very different. As you play with them, your affinity between you and the character increases, opening new affinity missions that help expand on that character's personality and backstory. Some standouts include Hope, Irina, and Lao. Some characters i dislike are Lin, Tatsu, and L. The others I am okay with. Some downsides to them are that you're not going to have enough time to play them all and have them at a reasonable level. Some characters you get at level 13, some at level 24. You forget about one of them, and they're not usable until you grind them up, which can be tedious, especially with so many characters. Another one is that they can only have affinity with Cross. The some of the characters just won't have anything to do with another. Also, because of this, you cannot switch out Cross. I'm happy they gave me such a wide variety of cast members, but Cross does not have a personality. Self-inserts aren't interesting. Also, most of the characters have very little impact on the main story. It's more like Cross, Elma, and Lin are the only main characters. Everyone else sometimes helps out, depending on who you bring along, but most are benched. It's disappointing, since XC had all playable characters with a stake in the story. Specific Characters: Hope you get around the middle of the game. She is best girl so far. I like her giving personality and overall happiness. I wasn't sure about if I truly liked this character, but after the affinity mission, "A False Hope", I can say on no uncertain terms that she is my favorite character so far. That might change after I complete everyone's affinity missions, and complete the story, but I doubt it. I urge people to get to that affinity mission ASAP. Lin and Tatsu. Ugh. See, I wanted to like them. I thought I would like Lin. I wanted to give Tatsu a chance since I loved how they portrayed Riki in Xenoblade Chronicles. But, I can't say I enjoy them at all so far. Their whole shtick is that Lin teases Tatsu for looking like food. Lin at least has some personality in affinity missions, but when I see the duo interacting, I want to skip past it. It's becoming less of a running gag and more of beating a dead horse. Tatsu isn't even useful. He can't fight. Maybe he has some use later in the story, but man, I could just do without the two. I can't though, since they have a stake in the story, unlike other characters that I think are more interesting. Soundtrack: I like it. It's a very hit or miss OST, and I can see why. It has a lot of vocals, specifically some rap. I'm not bothered by it, though it's understandable why people don't like it. It's way off what the original sounded like. Different composer, different setting. I think the OST fits fine. Some standouts to me are Black Tar and Uncontrollable. This is just a sorts of rant. I don't think I could ever get my thoughts organized enough about this game to ever give a review I'm happy with. This game is amazing so far. I can't put this game down.
  12. D-Did I just witness a Ma-non commit sudoku?

  13. The vehicle mode on Skells is pretty bad. This game is all about the maneuverability on the terrain, and they made turning feel like moving a sloth.

  14. It's a bit too late to nip this in the bud, but to give concrete evidence: http://realorsatire.com/clickhole-com/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-intersect/wp/2014/06/24/the-onion-launched-a-parody-site-called-clickhole-and-not-everyone-got-the-joke-what-happened-next-will-not-surprise-you/ http://www.dailydot.com/lol/clickhole-launch-kibblesmith-interview/ In short, the website is satire about clickbait titles. Not real.

  17. I got my defective copy of Xenoblade Chronicles X traded in, now I'm just waiting for the update to finish. Mira, here I come.

  18. Wow, the worst possible scenario happened. I got my disc for Xenoblade Chronicles X, but my Wii U won't read it. You have failed me Amazon.

      When does amazon stop delivering for the day?

      Assuming you are getting it through UPS, since that's how I got it, their times are from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM. It's safe to say it'll probably be delivered tomorrow, or else it might have been delayed even further.

      Amazon is still claiming 8 PM in the past but UPS is saying Monday. Which one should I believe? UPS?

  19. This is a pretty sad time. It's a damn fun game. Ignoring all the rumors, I wish the people who worked on Project M good luck on their future endeavors and hope the PM community keeps on kicking regardless. Hell, some are saying there's a silver lining to this, since now the meta can evolve without fear of nerfs to their characters. Here's a mirror download website to get all versions of PM, if anyone was interested in picking it up. There has been a leak for Knuckles, Lyn, Issac, and Sami, but I can't seem to find a trustworthy site to get them from. I've never been super invested in this mod, but it hurts me to see it stop updating, because I know how hard they've been working to keep it alive and still have it be a good game. RIP ;-;7
  20. Been a bit quiet here about how hyped I am about this game. I'm pretty hyped for this game. Now I just hope Amazon gets it to me in a timely manner, or else I might just grab a digital copy.
  21. You guys get into the holiday spirit early.

  22. I'm pretty hyped for Xenoblade Chronicles X.

  23. I guess you can also watch Gundam:IBO and The Perfect Insider this season as well.

  24. Huh, I never really bothered thinking about this, since I usually don't have the choice. I go with English audio with video games, since I'm too used to it and I never bothered to see if there was any alternative, since I'm not bothered by most voice acting.
  25. Guys, I don't know if you heard, but there's this Chinese dude in Smash now.
