keyblader1985 posted... I've been watching Hajime no Ippo on and off. I've heard it was very similar to Kenichi in spirit (wholesome novice protagonist, realistic depiction of martial arts, etc.), which is one of my favorite shounen. That Ippo/Miyata rematch was intense; Miyata's counter was one of the most brutal attacks I've seen. The anime is trash. Read the manga instead. The anime cut out so much character development. --- Gamertag: Kegfarms, BF code: 2033480226, Treasure Cruise code 318,374,355, Steam: Kegfarms, Switch: SW-1900-5502-7912 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Xenoblade's third wave of DLC has been out for a few days now and gauntlet mode is surprisingly pretty great. It's really neat how an entire new meta has sprung up, heroes that are shit outside of gauntlet are suddenly very good inside of it (Riki&Manana being a big one). New class is a lot stronger than it seems, you can play it like a signifer with huge healing and crit buffs. but who told them about RNG accessory crafting as an endgame grind Judgmenl posted...

The general direction of wave 4 is pretty easy to guess from the trailer they recently released. Way more excited for this than I was for Torna, which I still haven't finished. The new hero requires chapter 5 by the way so you won't be able to get her for a while (chapter 3 is required for the older DLC hero). Levels scale to 30/50/70 for gauntlet mode so you can definitely try that out before the end of the game. Pretty decent renewable source of rare stuff like gold nopon coins and those shards you find rarely in the overworld or from smashing NMs. I've managed to get precisely halfway through hard pro gauntlet (the hardest tier lasting 140 stages) and it gets pretty challenging even doing pretty insane damage. --- http://i.imgur.com/LabbRyN.jpg raytan and Kana are on opposite ends of the Awesome Spectrum. ...

I figure NG+ will go pretty quickly, depending on how many sidequests I decide to do on the way, and encountering them in their original context just strikes me as being better than going back to them from endgame. Of course, I just started Nier Automata, so it'll probably be a while before I get back to Xenoblade anyway. --- This is my signature.

Ended up watching the Takagi-san film on my day off today. Basically felt like 3 episodes strung together and the ending was very unexpected. Hopefully the manga is not ending soon and we get a season 4 that wraps up the rest of the story. If it does, I'm not sure if there's any other modern romance manga to be adapted into that many episodes besides maybe 3-gatsu no lion (which really needs another season). Only films that are out that I want to watch are the Yuru Camp film (not really all that interested) and Suzume (which is taking forever to get a translation). --- Whenever someone sings fansa and they don't input their name instead of mona at the mona-beam part I'm like "Are you even a real aidoru?". ...

Finally reading some 3-gatsu no lion again, onto volume 2 and so much of this story is about finding a place where Rei can belong. All of his effort has been put into Shogi purely to be accepted by his peers and his step-father, and his skill purely comes from his raw drive to success. It's such a great story and I'm happy reading it this time. Hopefully the 100 chapters that the anime doesn't cover are as good as the 100 chapters the anime covers. --- Whenever someone sings fansa and they don't input their name instead of mona at the mona-beam part I'm like "Are you even a real aidoru?". ...

yeah, that's absolutely everyone's biggest beef with the game on a mechanical level didn't affect me because I'm a lazy loser who rushes endgame and then does side content, but this game has an abhorrent amount of side content. even if you're not a completionist, it's easy to be overlevelled --- http://i.imgur.com/LabbRyN.jpg raytan and Kana are on opposite ends of the Awesome Spectrum. ...

And I'm exactly the type of person who finishes all the available sidequests in an area before moving on. I can already see myself just skipping enemies and not engaging with the battle system as much which might bring down the whole playing experience.

Ultimately, it's really not hard to powerlevel classes postgame, even if you barely levelled them at all going through, and you'll always have at least one character able to access each new class, so it's not like the game will be ruined by not trying to keep your level low enough to maximize CP gains. You just won't get to go through as many classes as you could by skipping most sidequests, which is unfortunate because the class system is really good for keeping the battle system fresh and varied. It's also not at all necessary to actively avoid fighting to keep your level low, nor to avoid every single sidequest. You're just going to run into problems if you try to do every quest (though even then, there are still plenty of higher-levelled targets around that can give you CP, just not the story-required ones). It's an issue that probably shouldn't be there (just removing the level-based adjustment on CP would fix pretty much the whole problem), but it's not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. I'd recommend putting off non-hero sidequests that seem like they're going to be more involved and not making a habit of going back to each area after completing new chapters to look for new sidequests (each area's sidequest list expands steadily throughout the game), and never using bonus exp to level up, but otherwise you shouldn't have to worry too much about it. --- This is my signature.

Played quite a bit of Xeno 3. Just got the second hero. I can already see that fully maxing out the classes before postgame is gonna be a chore. All the enemies around where I am right now are around level 15-20, and I'm already at 23. Everyone has at least 3 classes mastered already, but now the growth is slowing down since they're in their C and D ranked classes. Everything else has been great though. The game runs great, the music is great, the environments are great, just greatness all around. Still not sure how to optimize combat arts and chain attacks yet, but I hope it'll get easier with time. As for the story side, the only gripe I have is that the villians are almost cartoonishly evil.

T0ffee posted... I can already see that fully maxing out the classes before postgame is gonna be a chore. Yeah, don't do that. If nothing else, there are actually two post-game exclusive classes, so you actually can't max everything out before then. Beyond that, though, the absolute best way to grind CP (like rank 1-20 in five minutes) requires you to de-level everyone to maximize their gains and kill a level 80ish enemy repeatedly, which you can't do until beating the game. There is an alternative that uses level 90+ enemies and doesn't require quite as much de-leveling, but it still goes much, much faster after postgame. That said, you can work your way through a good chunk of the classes on your way through the game if you don't end up overlevelled. Pretty much just play as whatever interests you/you have fun with and don't get too stuck on the fact that you won't max out all of them. --- This is my signature.

As much as potato quest gets memed pretty hard, it really was spectacular, and one of the best-executed examples of the game's core themes.

It helps that one of the main themes of the game is "free everybody so they can do what they want," which leaves the door wide open for sidequests amounting to "how do we accomplish what we want now that we're free?". That's a very open-ended concept with massive potential for variation based on the personalities, cultures, and situations of the various colonies, and really lends itself to sidequests that feel like they make a genuine difference. --- This is my signature.

Not really sure what to watch lately, so I rewatched Your Lie in April, and Mushoku Tensei. Also watched the second season of Promised Neverland and can see why it's rated poorly on mal. No idea why they decided to speedrun the rest of the story. What is there is at least decent though, but it's still a big letdown to see the route they went. Also started on Xeno 3. Seems more like the first than the second one so far. I'm glad the affinity chart is back. I dunno why, but I really like that feature and wish more games had it. Would be really nice in something like Elder Scrolls imo. Since I don't really have anything to watch, I'm going to rewatch Hikaru no Go next.

dragon504 posted... Seems more like the first than the second one so far. It is. Generally a darker tone (there's a very strong argument to be made that 2 ends up being darker than 1 once you finally get into the meat of it, but the early impressions definitely come across as a more light-hearted game), and less whimsical art style, and fewer hamfisted shonen tropes (including blatantly subverting the fanservice bath scene in a way that provides meaningful worldbuilding, as opposed to 2 mostly playing the trope straight). Gameplay-wise, it arguably builds more on 2's foundation than 1's, but it incorporates a lot from both. dragon504 posted... I'm glad the affinity chart is back. I dunno why, but I really like that feature and wish more games had it. Would be really nice in something like Elder Scrolls imo. It is a really nifty feature. It doesn't make a huge difference to Xenoblade's gameplay (consider, for comparison, the Bomber's Notebook in Majora's Mask, which serves a similar worldbuilding purpose but also helps to track sidequest progress and guess at next steps), but it really helps to flesh out the world by establishing everyone you interact with as being somehow interconnected and meaningfully affected by the actions you take. --- This is my signature.

Speaking of Xeno 3, just finished chapter 4 and am now at the start of chapter 5. As I feared I was woefully overleveled for the Still, I'm growing classes at a good pace. I only have 2-3 classes that aren't maxed on everyone. I guess taking the time to farm for 6 Mastery Necklaces once I hit level 30 was worth it. As far as the story goes, (Chapter 4 spoilers ahead!) did the writers REALLY expect that we wouldn't And I'm glad that my guess about I'm now definitely intrigued on how this world came to be.

And I can I just say how awesome the main cast is? I don't think I have felt this kind of immediate attachment to the party compared to the other Xeno games. I think the main contributing factor for that is that they are all together at the start instead of getting added one by one as the story progresses. This allows the game to focus on expanding their interpersonal relationships and growing and revealing their personalities. Noah as a protagonist is still kinda bleh compared to Shulk for now (but is infinitely better than Rex), but the rest of the party really bring up the whole experience. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido ...

I think there's room to say that some of the individual characters don't necessarily measure up to others from previous games, but the sheer chemistry between party members is just unmatched by pretty much any other game I've seen. I absolutely adored watching them interact and develop alongside each other. I think a big part of that is the sheer volume of casual, non-story-related interactions they have, through side quests and camp conversations, but the end result is that it feels like I'm going on an adventure with them in a way that very few other games can boast.

i do agree with you from an objective (or maybe a reader/watcher's) standpoint, but anis is still almost entirely devoid of ambitions, due to both her experience as a japanese commoner and how feudal society has looked at her most her life which is why euphie is needed to drill it into her how important she is but jesus we don't need like 3 episodes on this. maybe half an episode. i should go catch back up on the manga to see if it paces itself weirdly like this, last time i read the manga they were just meeting tilty --- http://i.imgur.com/LabbRyN.jpg raytan and Kana are on opposite ends of the Awesome Spectrum. ...

agesboy posted... but anis is still almost entirely devoid of ambitionsWhich is very strange and out of character, because up till this arc, her ambition drove the plot. She has the strongest ambition of any of the characters, or at least did. Idk. At this point the best I'm hoping for is a bullshit happy ending where everything works out and they end up happily together, which is somewhat unsatisfying, but at least I could just forget about the show after the fact (the xenoblade 2 ending basically). Why is it always the yuri anime that end this way. Starting to remind me of yami to boushi or that shrine maiden one. --- I'm ninja (you can't see me) ... Copied to Clipboard!
