Kind of shocking how bad the Vesperia OST is. I didn't even notice at first until the Dahngrest theme kicked in and I realized it was the first noteable track in the whole game....and is basically the only noteable track other than Fury Sparks. And even FS is pretty middling coming back to it! Even Dahngrest gets tiring from overuse.

I like the Tarqaron theme quite a bit.

I saw an idea online somewhere I kind of liked

Maybe to give some actual stakes to the 24/7 Title, maybe say something like If you can hold the title for a full week you earn an IC/US Title shot

That would imply one title is more important than another.

Which in turn would imply that a title is important in general.

Which would imply that titles can be important.

That's the opposite of what WWE wants.

Saw this yesterday. The more I think about it, the more plotholes come up. The biggest one is why Thor even struggled against Thanos with no gauntlet when he didn't with gauntlet. That's the whole point of Stormbreaker..... I just write it off as "loltension".

Also Iron Man switching the gauntlets with ease when a whole team of them struggled to get it off in IW

Bad logic aside, since both of these complaints have already been explained away, neither of these would qualify as a "plot hole" to begin with. Not sure why people seem to have such difficulty with that term.

Vesperia's not my favorite Tales game, probably not even top 3, but I feel like your feelings on it generally indicate your feelings for the rest of the series. If you don't enjoy it then yeah I'd say it's a pretty safe bet you won't care for any Tales games very much.

Every heel should always cheat or take some sort of technically legal shortcut like Andrade using Zelina as a shield (which is VERY much appreciated in this WWE landscape BTW).

Monster heels in squash matches are the ONE exception, but even someone like Brock should take shortcuts against legit guys.

If you dont want to do that, dont expect us to boo people consistently

On the other hand, if you do that, don't expect anyone in the crowd to ever take any heels seriously.


I mean, you watch New Japan right? I ASSUME

That style of storytelling doesnt need a lot of cheaters, because its entirely based on character dynamics and lore. You can have 75% non-cheaters there.

Even then you still have Bullet Club and Suzukigun who cheat just to let you know that THESE are the real fuckwads

You seem to be agreeing with me but this post has the look of an argument.

The part of your post I took issue with was saying that every heel should cheat.

Well. I actually agree with both of you because you're discussing different things. Jakyl is saying if you're going to run things the way WWE does with a very stylized new gen style presentation that you need well defined heels and babyfaces so that the stories WWE tells make sense.

The story here with the Eco Warriors is that they're being unfairly given opportunities they don't deserve and that they cheated the Usos and someone needs to stop them. They're going to tell that story whether Bryan cheats or not so he may as well cheat.

Okay yeah, that makes sense.

I guess since I'm the "get rid of the heel/face dynamic entirely" guy I don't really have much to contribute to this conversation then.

1. Steiner - Okada
2. scarlet - Pentagon
3. Tom - Daniel Bryan
4. Iceman - Omega
5. Ed - Fenix
6. Ed - Aldis
7. Iceman - Ibushi
8. Tom - Jericho
9. scarlet - Owens
10. Steiner - Cena

So I was banking pretty heavily on Tom or Scarlet grabbing Cena, especially Tom since he more or less said he was going to be grabbing almost exclusively from WWE. I was stunned when Jericho and Owens went above him.

There's a difference between company identity and company roster. Like if you're trying to maintain roster integrity to any extent there's no point to the draft.

I'll die on the hill that my show was true to ROH's identity, it just doesn't look that way because its roster has been such a large part of it being bad for a while.
