  1. Fire Emblem: Warriors character that I really, really want is Mia, because goddamn she hasn't gotten anything since Awakening in Spotpass. I was hoping she'd be usable in Heroes, but no. Sad face. She might be behind a paywall, like what they did in Hyrule Warriors where they did the Wind Waker DLC pack, etc.

     

    I just want to play as a female swordsman that was from my favorite Fire Emblem game ;w; Lyn is cool too, and I'm most certainly sure she's gonna be in it.

      She's the female swordsman from Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn that everyone ships with Ike:

  2. Say what you will about First Person Shooter games all being the fucking same, what with their half-assed story modes and FAR too much emphasis on the multiplayer side, but Halo 1, and 2 had both going for them. God I miss classic Halo 2 multiplayer more than any shooter game. Glad to see people working on a project to bring it back: http://www.h2v.online/

     

    I normally hate the hell out of FPS's (believe me, I hate FPS's), but all I ever want out of a shooter is a solid singleplayer experience, is that too hard to ask out of modern FPS's? At least Doom 2016 gave me what I craved since Halo 2 - a solid singleplayer experience. None of that stupid emphasis on multiplayer, DLC, Map Packs, and pre-order garbage.

      Sounds like something I'd need to look into. The thing is I don't mind FPS multiplayer, so long as it's done right and it's not irritating like CoD and even like Halo 4 and on. To where it's so mindless and the developers only care about pushing the multiplayer aspect of those games to high-hell with day one DLC, pre-order bonuses before the game is even announced (which is fucking infuriating in its own right) and making the singleplayer pretty much barren and dull.

       

      Halo 2 had a pretty solid multiplayer that I really miss to this day as well as having a singleplayer that was very fun and had a story that I actually cared about. But, if an FPS can deliver to me a solid singleplayer experience (because I'm not holding my breath that any FPS multiplayer will be good, unless it's a standalone game like TF2, Overwatch, etc) then I'll play it.

      Borderlands, yeah, I can agree with. It was a fun RPG-Shooter game and it had a pretty interesting Telltale game based off of the series. But, other than that I can never find myself finishing the games because when I hit the 70% mark of the game I just stop, for one reason or another. Possibly because of how tedious it got at points.

       

      But, the thing is I don't play FPS's, they are my least played genre, however they did have some pretty good shooters, like the original Halo, Halo 2, Goldeneye, Time Splitters original Doom 1 and 2 as well as Doom 2016. All of which were solid on their own merits, without multiplayer being shoved down our throats.

  4. I just got this in the mail today. People say Final Fantasy 6 or Chrono Trigger are some of the best SNES RPGs. And I'd agree that those are pretty high up there in my list, but people over here in the states probably never played this gem. The first, ever, console RPG to have voice acting (old PC games did it before this, but I'm talking specifically home consoles) and an opening theme that had lyrics in it. I'm referring to Tales of Phantasia. Not the god-awful GBA port with its many technical problems and framerate issues, but the original Super Famicom version. The PS1 version is pretty awesome too, but this specific version has a lot of pedigree and history to it.

     

    It's a shame most people didn't get to play this game when it first came out, because it never came to the states (because of fucking course it didn't ;w; ). Also Arche Klein and Suzu Fujibayashi are both too cool for school <3

     

    I actually managed to get this in its original box as well as with its manual. The only problem with the game itself is that it doesn't save. Yeah, unfortunately cartridge based games like this suffer from their batteries running dry over the years so you have to manually change them out.

  9. Anyone who has a Playstation Vita what games do you have on it? Currently I have Phantasy Star Nova, Tales of Hearts R, Soul Sacrifice, Spelunky, Rogue Legacy, Gravity Rush and Ys: Memories of Celceta.

     

    Any games to recommend that isn't Persona 4 Golden?

    1. Dylanrockin

      @Marcello Atelier ey? I've played Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana on the PS2, which has a boss soundtrack. Deceitful Wings OC Remix is probably one of my favorite remixes ever XD But, I've played a few Atelier games for the PS3 and I love Disgaea 1, 2 and 3. I need to try out 4 at some point and D2.

       

      @Maelstrom Yeah I'm thinking about getting Delta. It's been awhile since I updated my Vita library and that's a pretty fair comparison I think as well, since Duodecim is pretty much the definitive version of Dissidia. Especially for ad-hoc battles.

  11. Puyo Puyo Tetris for the Nintendo Switch looks like a hell of a lot of fun! Also the characters are super cute, so that's a plus! (Shame that I don't have anyone in my house to play with ;w; )

      There are embargo's on the Switch in some locations, due to high demand in the product. That's what happened when the console wasn't even released. They had to place an embargo on Nintendo Switches, before the were released due to extremely high demand XD

      I think the Switch is awesome. It's been well-received by many and the games look promising. I also bought one for the sake of a new Pokemon game coming out, since it was confirmed that they're planning on releasing Pokemon games on it. Also Fire Emblem: Warriors, because I like me some Dynasty Warriors-esque games.

      It looks like a ton of fun, but it's couch-multiplayer (which I'm all for), but sadly I can't play it with anyone but myself, so the fun-factor just decreased 5-fold :( it's the kind of game you'd want to play at a party, because it looks super fun.

    Don't make a game if you're unwilling to actually put in any effort into learning the engine. Also, I paid for half of my tiles, so... the answer is no. If he was just asking for advice I'd say he's at least proactive in wanting to learn..

  15. I question how people spend upwards to 3000 dollars on Love Live content... How? Just what is it with Love Live that I'm not getting? Anyone who has played the mobile game/watched the anime, please tell me just what it is that I'm not getting about it. What I see, when I watched someone on Twitch play the game is that it looks like your typical school Idol anime game.

    The PS3 barely managed to equal out to the Xbox 360's sales. But they were evenly matched, even though the Xbox 360, at launch, had that... 57% failure rate of Red Ring's.

     

    But then you look at PS4 vs Xbone and then...

    That is the textbook definition of hubris there, kids. Microsoft's sales in 2013 reflects how awful their E3 Press Conference was, which for those of you who watched that conference... ooof boy. It was bad. They were so full of themselves and tried marketing the Xbone as a Home Media Player, rather than focusing on what their general market cares about: games.

  19. An example of title that tries WAY too hard:

     

    90d242e0d85f597751c0e76447c1948e.png

     

    The FUCK is "True-HD Quality" and why should we care if it is the "truest" of 1080p quality? Like, you listed 1080p effectively twice on there, why was that needed?

    1. Dylanrockin

      Dylanrockin

      Oh, well basically 1080, 720 and 480 are basically just values meant to represent the width of a video's resolution. At higher resolutions the ability for one to distinguish quality begins to increase. The p, itself, stands for progressive scan, where all lines in a frame are captured at the same time.

       

      But, for the most part, if you're a casual YouTube viewer you don't need to know what this means unless you want to have water-cooler talk and impress your friends with that bit of trivia :P

      Dylanrockin

      It's try-hard because you don't need that last [1080p] TRUE-HD QUALITY. Because the standard for HD nowadays is 1080p. Also, the video will let you know if it's 720p HD or 1080p HD without a title. Which is pretty much common knowledge now if you've been on YouTube long enough.

       

      6a68c5c45e3e93662f62684e8ac8e97a.png

       

      Also saying TRUE-HD QUALITY, when you put that phrase under a microscope and actually look at what it means you realize how stupid it is. It's unnecessary, not even more accessible. You could omit that whole last part and the video would do just as fine. Also what the fuck does that phrase even mean? What even is that? And why would anyone care if it's "true" as opposed to... not "true"? Again... it's stupid. What makes it "true"? If you have a "true" version of something what is its "false"? 720p? 480?

      Dude, if you don't agree with what I have to say you don't have to lash out. I have nothing against YouTube I mostly say what I do because I feel something like this deserves criticism. I'm not asking you or anyone to agree with me, other than me stating my views on it.

       

      And tbh, this is very try-hard, because there is no talent in titling this video. He stated 1080p essentially twice, because...? It's dumb and there's no reason why you should do that. Also saying True HD just shows you're stretching to say something else about your own video.

      That's my point, like... why? They basically stated it twice, but the thing is saying "True HD" just sounds pretentious and trying WAY too hard to sound cool. When you break it down what they're actually doing is saying 1080p twice, but the 2nd one is just a far more pretentious way of saying it.

  24. I finished programming a post-processing effect in Unreal Engine 4 that makes all the assets in a given scene/level have a cel-shading effect. Also, I programmed in a cool UI:

     

    Doesn't exactly work very well with objects that have a certain level of metallicity and aren't whole numbers by a factor of 2.

     

    Still feeling like something's missing in the HUD. Unsure about the positioning or maybe I need some kind of border around the character's icon.
