| NBIceman 09/28/18 7:48:16 PM #350 | Saw Athena work a TON on the indies since she was primarily based in Texas. It's hard for me to definitively say how good I think she is because her stuff ranged from legitimate greatness to some of the worst matches I've seen in my entire life. She is heavily, heavily dependent on the quality of her opponent in my eyes. I never really got into Heidi Lovelace. She's one of those wrestlers that everyone has where you recognize they have talent to a varying extent but just don't connect with you. So, again, hard to judge. --- https://imgur.com/UYamul2 Spurs - Yankees - Eagles - Golden Knights |

NBIceman posted...Lopen, you also said something about how my standards are probably just higher and that if I put Nikki under my threshold of "good" I'd have to do the same for 80% of the other main roster women's workers. And I do. The only main roster women I consider actively good are Becky and Asuka. But there's a tier right underneath that one of women I'd consider "fine" (Bayley, Charlotte, Sarah Logan, Sasha with the right opponent, maybe Mickie and Natayla on a good day?), and Nikki doesn't hit that threshold either. Logan is someone I saw wrestle on the indies quite a bit so that's what I'm judging on. It's entirely possible that the quality of opponent there made her look better than she was and she's now been exposed. I never really saw her work against average wrestlers; they were either really great or really bad. --- https://imgur.com/UYamul2 Spurs - Yankees - Eagles - Golden Knights |

| NBIceman 09/28/18 7:05:30 PM #342 | I checked out of this discussion yesterday because I stopped caring but since it's still going on I feel compelled to make one more post and then probably never speak of the Bellas again. My saying that both Brie and Nikki are terrible was not to insinuate that they are equally terrible. Nikki is better than Brie, yeah, but that has nothing to do with Nikki actually being good and everything to do with Brie being especially horrendous. But yes, at least Nikki isn't an active botch machine and hasn't (to my recollection) actually injured anyone. Nikki's just plain bad, Brie is dangerously bad. Lopen, you also said something about how my standards are probably just higher and that if I put Nikki under my threshold of "good" I'd have to do the same for 80% of the other main roster women's workers. And I do. The only main roster women I consider actively good are Becky and Asuka. But there's a tier right underneath that one of women I'd consider "fine" (Bayley, Charlotte, Sarah Logan, Sasha with the right opponent, maybe Mickie and Natayla on a good day?), and Nikki doesn't hit that threshold either. Now, yes, to be fair, I do admit that I no longer watch WWE main roster women's wrestling because I don't watch ANY main roster wrestling. So if some of these women have improved in the last two-three years, I wouldn't be able to speak on that. But people were already calling Nikki good when I was still watching, as evidence by the fact that she won the APWT award back then. And she's taken so much time off since then that I find it hard to believe she's magically smoothed out all her considerable rough edges. Historically, wrestlers don't get better through not wrestling. Maybe she's stopped slapping her legs on moves that miss, I guess? That would be a nice step in the right direction. Anyway, now I'm done. No more Bella discussion for me. --- https://imgur.com/UYamul2 Spurs - Yankees - Eagles - Golden Knights |

| NBIceman 09/24/18 8:16:45 PM #27 | Gun to my head, I'd say fighting games. DOTA 2 has higher highs, I think, but it's harder for me to sit down and commit to watching it outside of the few big majors every year. Fighting games are a much easier watch to me, so they win out on consistency I guess. --- https://imgur.com/UYamul2 Spurs - Yankees - Eagles - Golden Knights |

Symphonia's OST being so great is what makes me mad that the only song from it that has retired in VGMC is Starry Heavens, which is trash One of these days when I'm really in the mood to cause an all-out word brawl on this board, I'm gonna make a poll topic for which Tales game has the best opening theme. Don't think I've seen it here before, but I know folks elsewhere on the internet will die on a hill for their favorite. --- https://imgur.com/UYamul2 Spurs - Yankees - Eagles - Golden Knights |

| NBIceman 09/23/18 11:33:33 PM #72 | xp1337 posted... MZero11 posted...So what I gather from this topic is that I should play Symphonia first before the later games make it look bad! Symphonia's also a pretty good litmus test for whether you'll like the rest of the series. As you can tell from this topic, there's an EXTREMELY wide range of opinions on how the various entries stack up against each other, but I haven't encountered too many people who actively disliked Symphonia and went on to enjoy other Tales games. --- https://imgur.com/UYamul2 Spurs - Yankees - Eagles - Golden Knights |

| NBIceman 09/23/18 11:23:24 PM #60 | I legit didn't realize people liked Symphonia's OST that much.
