Pretty good stuff! Enjoyed it the whole way through. Didn't blow me away (dinner scene was the highlight), but it didn't have any real flaws, IMO.

I also absolutely adore Taskmaster. I haven't seen the movie yet, but this has all deflated my interest in it. I just don't understand the choice here, especially after everyone has been big on literally every Taskmaster appearance in other media where he gets to have a personality. This is just such a bizarre choice.

Spider-Man 2018 (game) is the only thing I've seen Taskmaster in, and he was one of the more boring characters in that. BW version definitely superior.

I thought the anime's story was good! It fell off a bit towards the end there too, though.

They're better than they were on the Wii U version, and you get better camera control by using them. If you like motion controls, you'll probably like them better than using the right stick.

Exactly that. Most Zelda games have sold systems, regardless of their attach rate. Remember when their were more BotW (for Switch) copies sold than there were Switches? If Wind Waker had been a hit, the GC would've been a much more successful system.

Frau was my favorite part of RN. Everything focused on her was generally good times, but her focus is minimal in the second half of the anime.

I actually liked the early parts of the series better though, IIRC. The mind control/body control twist wasn't really my thing.

BotW replay feels like something I'd want to save for a Switch 2 or whatever to play with better performance. It's a long game, so I'm in no rush!

Curious how RN compares to the other Science;Adventure games. I assume you never watched the anime?

Azure:

I'm fine with what most of what you guys are saying, and don't necessarily disagree with most of it. I think it could've done a better job with a more nuanced portrayal, though. The bad guys certainly did bad things to achieve their ends, but I think it would've been nice to have the good guys try to find a good alternative solution of their own. Though I do respect the game for proving the bad guys "right" in a way - Crossbell is conquered and put in a poor position as soon as Lloyd and co. defeat their enemies.

That partly feels like a really privileged viewpoint, too. Like sure, there's value in people struggling and overcoming adversity, but how does that apply to all the children who die before age 5? How does that apply to the people who got salt'd in North Ambria? I dunno, maybe Zemuria's way more egalitarian in that sense than Earth (it certainly seems to have less crime and death most of the time), but there are definitely people who could use help beyond what Lloyd and co provide.

Azure: One of the first things we see KeA do with her expanded powers is cure Shizuku's blindness, and most of the characters don't want to re-blind her after that either. I don't like the idea that it's everything or nothing.
---

All the stars in the sky are waiting for you.

Azure: The Zero cold open being the alternate timelines is amazing yes. I never thought that CS1 could be an alternate KeA timeline though, haha (I played Zero/Azure before the CS games).

With the "too good to be true" thing, I feel like a lot of modern technological advances fit that! Especially in the medical field. Vaccines, antibiotics, insulin, etc. have saved an insane number of lives, and would've sounded too good to be true to people hundreds of years ago, but we have them now, and we're much better off with them. I think KeA's powers fit into that category too. It's a bit of a false dichotomy to save we either have KeA do everything for us or nothing - she can help in all sorts of small ways that make the world better as well.
---

All the stars in the sky are waiting for you.

R&C and SM3DW are both great choices!

Azure: felt like Lloyd was being pretty hypocritical at the end there, since he didn't get KeA to undo her rewrite and make them all dead again!

Honestly any time someone in fiction is against that sorta thing is kinda BS IMO. FFTA probably the ultimate example. If you have some sort of great technology/magic that makes the world a better place and makes people happier, use it!

Apparently Proton is currently compatible with ~70% of the games on Steam. It's not just games with anti-cheat that it has issues with.

Lots of games have issues that're similar to what you see with other emulators. Messed-up colors, no audio, crashes at certain locations, etc.

I've been saying for a long time that Amiibos are glorified microtransactions and now people are starting to come around...!

People came around before Amiibos even existed! Skylanders started it years before Amiibos, and those were used to unlock whole sections of games.

The SS example is particularly bad, because most of the Amiibo MTX stuff is of the variety nobody cares that much about - minor upgrades, bonus items, costumes, etc. People wouldn't buy that stuff if it were a $2.99 DLC instead of an Amiibo, so it's not a huge deal. Fast travel's an important feature people would be freaking out about if it were regular DLC too, though. Would definitely put this on the ME3 Javik is only DLC level of outrageousness.

Only this is worse because the Amiibo's out of stock everywhere so you can't even buy it...

Mainly I guess it's a win for the people who have one of those Amiibo hacker things so they can get it for free.

Edit: reading about the actual functionality, maybe it's not as big a deal as I thought.

I might be in your shoes right now, except for the stupid Amiibo fast travel thing. I'm willing to wait another 5-10 years to go back to it after hearing about that (if TP HD got ported to Switch, on the other hand...).

I think they've said one can even wipe the whole the device and just install Windows if they wanted to. It doesn't sound like the device will be locked down in any way.

And there are several Sony consoles you can install Linux on. What's your point?

I was ok with loki being chaotic good near the end. Even the last episode him contemplating whether it was a lie was much more Loki than say, Thor who would probably have just believed

Maybe early Thor, but current Thor likely would've been skeptical.

I dunno how much Loki felt like Loki in the show. Like, does the story even change if you put Thor in Loki's place?

Is Soul Hackers just a port?

In any case P5R was one of my fav games ever.

So given the quality I'd of course be more excited for Re Fantasy.

Bad news for you there: the P5R director (Daiki Ito) isn't working on Re Fantasy.

Out of curiosity, does rollback work well in games that have more than 2 players online?
---

All the stars in the sky are waiting for you.

P6 will have a lot of the same development staff, just a new director.

Looking at their releases, it looks like the Persona studio has worked on P3 Dancing, P5 Dancing, Persona Q2, and Persona 5 Strikers since Persona 5 came out (Q2 probably together with the EO studio).

Also hm, didn't realize these announcements were being made over the course of 12 months, starting in September (why is Shine so bad at posting info in topics like these?). That makes me all the more confident in P6 being one of them.

Holy shit Persona 5 came out 4 years and 10 months ago. It doesn't feel that old for some reason. Was also announced in November 2013.

Hoping for Persona 6 and ports. Though I wonder if P6 would get announced before Project Re Fantasy (announced December 2016) comes out...

We are seeing more and more western AAA games get celebrities too so I'm sure we'll get there soon.

Edit: Though funnily, I think it was Kojima that really opened the door to this in the west with Kiefer Sutherland in MGSV and Norman Reedus in DS happening well before Keanu in Cyberpunk.

Samuel L Jackson as Officer Tenpenny in San Andreas feels like the first big successful one to me, though there were a few even back on the PS1.
