Speaking of AA cutscenes, I wonder if the main series is going to stick with what DGS2 is doing replacing anime scenes with 3D ones. I wonder how that will work in the game itself now that I think about it. |

Been playing ARMS on and off last few days. It's definitely fun, but the weird control choices bring it down a bit. It feels like the game is trying to get you to do motion controls, which seems rather Nintendo-esque. |

I wonder how that will work in the game itself now that I think about it. They can go a long way with improving 3D presentation as well. The new DBFighterZ game raised some eyebrows over the slick 3D representation of anime, and while I love SoJ and DGS for their aesthetics they can definitely look for new ways to go about rendering, and I'll always think the more sprite-based it looks the better it feels. Both DGS2 and SoJ opted for more in-game cutscenes over their predecessors than to use outsourced anime sequences. I know a problem with those are also the amount of planning involved and how it sometimes ends up not aligning properly with the final iteration of the game script or vice versa and furthermore whoever makes the anime scenes usually have their own directors to carry out the instructed scenes, so there's always this feel of "not belonging to the game" when an anime cutscene plays IMO. It doesn't evoke the same feeling of the Trilogy's cutscenes of full-sized moving images (think 1-1 opening). Those fit in perfectly with the in-game aesthetics and the overall tone of the game. The more they can get back to that, the better.

I also bought the DS version on Wii U again a couple of months ago and replaying Wild World is just nostalgia and I feel like I'm 12 years old again. It's incredible how such a simple game and technically limited in content can seemingly last forever. They're sooo good! |

Well, I finally finished Thabes Labyrinth in Fire Emblem: Echoes. I went ahead and posted a review on TV Tropes for those who are interested. I think it's safe to say from my having bothered with Thabes Labyrinth that I like Echoes. I prefer it over Fates and maybe even Awakening.

Just finished SMT IV. Got the 'Law' Ending. Spoiler: Right lets get spoilery Overall, I really liked the game in terms of gameplay. Sure defence isn't really a thing in this game, it's all about murdering them first but I had a lot of fun with the combat system. Talking to demons...eh they are a fickle bunch but it can be frustrating at times. At one point I developed a knack for it. I did feel I ran out of fusions at one point, just none of my fusions ever seemed to make better demons which was disappointing. Will probably play again for another ending. |

I got the Law ending first, too. I think midway I sort of began to purposefully go for it - I sort of knew how Law was gonna end. The ending for it was okay, I just felt like it could have really gone a bit more... the emotional route? Dunno, may be me. It felt like a very blasé ending. Fun fact, I NEVER got the Chaos route before I deleted the game off my system. (I like the game okay, I just feel it's a little... eh, it could do more?) Spoiler: SMT IV: Law Ending There is a guy in the taverns who gives you a hint on which route you are approaching. But he's pretty uncommon to find at times AND he disappears quite some time before the route split actually occurs. So, you could have been doing fine when you last saw him, but by the time the route splits, you aren't balanced anymore. Here are tips on how to get the Neutral Ending, if anyone wants them. Spoiler: SMT IV: Getting The Neutral Ending TIPS I got myself Dragon Ball Xenoverse. I waffled quite a bit, but I ended up making a darkskinned-whitehaired Saiyan woman with the name of Cauli. You know... Cauliflower... that's a vegetable, right? Strike-based, though I know the game is basically telling you that you are an idiot if you pick Strike. C-A |

I'm playing as the Soviet Union in Hearts of Iron IV. Things have gone somewhat ahistorical. First, the Spanish Civil War ended in a Republican victory thanks in part to a Soviet volunteer force under the command of Marshal Tukhachevsky. Second, with some encouragement from their neighbors to the north, Iran and Afghanistan have become Communist states. The Great Purge went a little differently. Tukhachevsky had served loyally in Spain, so he was spared. Many others, despite being suspected by Stalin, were allowed to live. Unfortunately for the Union, it turns out that while Stalin was paranoid, he wasn't always wrong; General Vlasov and a few others gathered thousands of soldiers and attempted a coup in early 1939. They were defeated, however. Germany, meanwhile, has chosen not to pursue closer ties with the Soviet Union; no pact was signed between them. Shortly after the Soviet Civil War ended in June, someone finally said "no" to German territorial demands: Poland. As a result, Germany declared war. Unfortunately for Poland, they stand alone; the Allies have refused to intervene. As of when I posted the above paragraph, it is June 19, 1939 in my playthrough. |

It's not coming to the west ever, and I don't like Generations too much so not really. I'm excited for World though. You can swim in World again but only for traversal. I also think MHTri is my favorite. I don't really need an excessive amount of monsters and I think Tri having Day/Night from the get-go made it more interesting. 4U is pretty dope as well, but Generations is too goofy and you can tell it's a spinoff. |

Things have gone even more ahistorical in my Hearts of Iron IV playthrough. Germany finally provoked the Allies by attacking the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg. However, they proved unable to achieve the breakthrough they wanted; Luxembourg fell, but Belgium and the Netherlands held. Germany simply did not commit enough troops to the offensive. This is in part because Hitler probably saw Soviet troops amassing along the border and realized that the Union would be nearly invincible if he waited until 1941 to strike. Operation Barbarossa was launched in 1940... and was a disaster. The Red Army was under-equipped, but under-equipped is not the same as unprepared. Once April rolled around, the Soviets launched an offensive of their own and successfully pushed the Germans back. In the north, Latvia and Lithuania, both of which supported Poland against Germany and were conquered for their trouble, have been liberated by Soviet forces. Most of Poland has also been liberated and East Prussia has fallen to Soviet forces. There have even been a few pushes into Germany proper. In the south, Romania, who also made the mistake of supporting Poland, has been liberated. Soviet forces have begun fighting through Yugoslavia. The rugged terrain makes progress slow, though, and Italy has committed a large number of troops to the defense of Yugoslavia. In the west, France held on for a long time; with Germany unable to break through the Low Countries, the fall of France ultimately depended on the Italians breaking through in the south. Paris eventually fell, and though France held firm for months even with the loss of their capital, additional defeats ultimately convinced them to surrender. Still, much of western Germany has fallen to Dutch, Belgian, and Danish forces. Hitler's plan to attack the Soviet Union early has backfired spectacularly, as he now can't commit enough troops to the western front without running the risk of the Soviets tearing through eastern Germany. Meanwhile, in India, a large communist uprising occurred. They hoped to receive help from the Soviet Union in ending British rule. However, the Union was busy fighting Germany and could not afford a war with the Allies, so the rebels stood alone and were defeated. Japan, still busy with China and the Allies, has wisely chosen not to support the German war effort against the Soviet Union for the time being. The large number of Soviet troops positioned along the Manchurian border may have something to do with that... It's January 1, 1941 in my playthrough as of when I posted the above paragraphs. Edit: February 10, 1941: Berlin has fallen to the Red Army. Hitler foolishly left the capital unguarded. Were it not for the presence of one Italian division, the city would have been completely undefended. |

I really enjoyed the storyline, I really enjoyed the episodes, I really REALLY enjoyed every single bit about it and that's my opinion. Your opinion is different and I respect that, because we all have our own opinions. Sure it doesn't explain why Max can time-travel that suddenly but hey, whatever, I don't need much explaining in a game. Although I'm really interested in how she got her powers and in what way, I mean they suddenly came when she saved Chloe - wow big surprise, Max can time-travel now because she saved her best friend who she hasn't seen in 5 years and apparently didn't even know it was her! That's the only thing that keeps bothering me about the game, but I'll never stop loving that game, even with its little quirks and clueless things. |

September 2, 1941 in my Hearts of Iron IV playthrough: Italy, Germany, and Turkey (Turkey sided with Germany late in the war) have surrendered. While the Allies continue to fight Japan and its Chinese puppet states in East Asia, the Soviet Union shall rest, as Japan continued to refuse German and Italian requests for aid against the Soviet Union. A new order has been established in Europe. All Slavic states have been incorporated into the Soviet Union, as have East Prussia, Romania, Moldova, Latvia, and Lithuania. In addition, Communist governments friendly toward the Soviet Union have been installed in Libya, Ethiopia, Turkey, Albania, Italy, Austria, and Germany. Now the Union turns its attention to the two last territories that were once part of its predecessor state, the Russian Empire: Estonia and Finland. |

Post subject: | Re: What are you playing now? |
Just finished Final Fantasy 15 and yeah I feel its pretty good. Plenty of flaws but pretty good. I really enjoyed its open world, quite possibly my favourite in a Final Fantasy Game. I loved how it felt like a hairs breadth away from the real world at parts. Theres a part where I'm driving down the road behind a truck and Prompto starts pleading to go and see the Chocobo stables just off the road and suddenly I'm blown away by memories of doing the same thing to my parents in similar situations from my own holidays. There's a problem I have with Marvel films, I feel they are always trying to suppress the magic and weirdness of the comics. Make it more mainstream and 'normal'. The world of Final Fantasy 15 feels much like that but it doesn't suppress the weirdness and magic. It blends them together in a way that feels normal and natural without cutting out bits like I feel Marvel does. I also really like the group dynamics. Its a small party but it means everyone feels useful and fulfils a role in the party. The tropes aren't anything hugely new but the "boy band" dynamic means they are being used in a new way for a Final Fantasy game and I liked the guys quite a bit. Lots of fond memories of the first half of the game. I especially liked the little 1to1 interactions you get after camping which were nice for developing the team. Its pretty subjective as I know that dynamic didn't work for some but I enjoyed it. The light playful tone contrasts with the utterly miserable ending. The storytelling leaves a lot to be desired and has plenty of gaps (that are inexcusably filled in by DLC) and when the open world ends I found it abrupt, sudden and disappointing. I wasn't ready to part with the open world and didn't see the end of it coming so large parts of the end game feel rushed and confusing due to the gaps in storytelling. I liked the final boss well enough, there's downsides to the last fight. I don't like it when games end in skill-less power up battles where you just beat the boss. Detracts from the game when nothing you've learned about combat matters in the end. Looks flash though. Perhaps that's appropriate though as I don't feel I was skilled at this game at all. I swear I healed through 60% of the endgame battles. The battles are so chaotic and its so easy to take ridiculous damage. Healing is real easy as well but its not fun. At one point I was just so tired of getting people back on their feet I just let the enemies kill us. They would never win the actual battle physically but they won it mentally. Hilarious moment where a boss declares: "A war of attrition then!" And tries to 1vs1 Noctis and I'm just like "Oh man...you do not know what you are getting into," as I straddle my 50+ full heal items in my inventory. Still enjoyed it quite a bit. Now let's make some enemies by placing it in a ranking of FF off the top of my head. Final Fantasies I like: X>Dissidia (and Duodecim)>Tactics Advance>Tactics Advance 2>12>Crisis Core>6>7>15>8>9>1>3 Final Fantasies I don't like: 13-2>War of the lions>13 FF14 is also pretty great but due to being an MMO I think its too hard to place on a list like this. Still FF15 was good, might go back for more sidequests since I wasn't done with the open world when it was snatched away from me. |

I can happily say that FF15 made it into my top 5 in the series. It was a pretty flawed game, but overall, I felt the good parts more than enough made up for the flaws the game had. I had fun with the game, which is something that is really nice to get to say about a new FF game again. 15 somewhat restored my faith in Square in being able to bring out a good, decent new FF and makes me feel a bit better about how the new FF7 will turn out. Granted, I'm still a bit skeptical, but I'm not feeling as adverse about it anymore. |
