Wait a second, if this is a remake anime, maybe they'll use Yumi and Daisuke's stories for the Sun and Strength Social links this time around.

REMIX!

They could make the Marie thing work though. The makings of a good story are there, the climax is well written (the part where the fog parts and Marie sees all of Inaba was quite sweet), as is the beginning, but the middle section with the awkwardly done interactions with the IT was where it suffered; this poor set-up harmed its conclusion as it's where the emotional payoff was supposed to happen. Again, I don't think the concept of the character is unsalvageable, it could very well benefit from the efforts of this slightly tweaked creative team.

But enough of that. Time for Dance!

>Shy, uncomfortable, blushing Naoto
>Yukiko blushing but being into it
>Chie being stronk
>Rise being confident and having fun
>Yu being fabulous
>Yosuke being shy and awkward but following his buddy
>Kanji not giving a shit
>Teddy being Teddy
This might be the only game where I want to fuck all the main characters.

Holy shit, it's Echoes Act 3!

>With how big turn based RPGs are over there

This isn't true anymore, actually. In fact Japanese RPGs have been dead for years.

>>187155
Huh, shows what I know.

What kinds of games are they playing nowadays? Is there any dominant genre or is it about a varied as it is here?

>>187157
These were the most popular games in Japan last year, according to some websites.

Monster Hunter 4 (2.5 million)
Tomodachi Collection (1.45 million)
Luigi Mansion 2 ( 500,000)
Animal Crossing: New Leaf (440,000)
JOJO Bizarre Adventures (420,000)
Ace Attorney 5 (340,000)
Mario & Luigi RPG 4: Dream Adventure (320,000)
Disney Magic Castle: My Happy Life (280,000)
Donkey Kong Returns (270,000)
Shin Megami Tensei IV (260,000)

So, Nintendo still obviously controls the Japanese market, but we see a LOT more variation than when it used to be nothing but shitty JRPGs and Nintendo Mario games.

>Literally the entire ending part of the game doesn't make any sense without knowledge of Trigger.

The ending made it's connection to Trigger through several scenes of information dumping. Stuff like Lavos and Schala had so little bearing in the story-plot itself, they could of easily been written out and have the end boss be a freak of nature created by or for all the time-travel experiments.

>>187064
That's still basically admitting that the game has no real ending without the attachment to Chrono Trigger. And if you tried to write out Schala, wouldn't you have to write out Kid?

>>187065
The end boss is the fusion of a time-altering monster and a powerful magic-user during a unnatural space-time. And Kidd is the clone of that person trapped inside the monster. Their names were pretty irrelevant until just before you have to fight it. And the game didn't have much of a ending even with CT.
The narrative was poor for Serge having no drive to move the plot but just be dragged along into smaller, unrelated conflicts until the plot kicked him in the gut a few times.

Bump because fangames are cool

Dude. If you want to play games like the old 2D Zeldas, you can't go wrong with Zelda Classic.

>>186261
Unknown, they had a lot of their earlier drafts they left out of the final product so they've got stuff to work with. I wouldn't mind some more Canada.

Hey that's how I roll...play.

Say what you will, it's within the scope of a Paladin's personality to favor negotiation (plus, it turned out that mind-control was in play, so I was right.) This other DM was just big into "Evil! Brou-hahaha!" side of things, and it showed. Very railroad-y, too, after the session he told me "You're not playing a Gnome right, I'm gonna race-change you, okay?"

That guy sounds like a dick but at the same time if the rest of the group wants to kick in doors and wreck face, that's maybe not the best campaign to be playing a negotiator in.

>>186977

It was really more two or so specific people who liked the rolling/combat stuff more than the walking around and talking stuff, and it's not like we didn't have plenty of both through the campaign, I was just pretty good at diffusing a situation where the other players would have just rolled for initiative.

I've thought about this a while, I don't think David is the rival, I think the case could be made for Mondo as David's rival.

I doubt many did play with the first Army of Two, but I always thought thig guy was a worthy, hilarious rival for the main characters.

GARGANT, Samanosuke's rival through Onimusha 1 and 3 and the secret boss of 4 is radical.

Sonic: Lost World 3DS? The next Sanzaru game? Maybe if you stopped creaming your pants over Sly Cooper you'd pay attention to what's happening in the gaming world.

>>186919
Sonic Boom 3DS. Whatever. Fuck it.

Again, gaming boards have the angriest posters.

Ugh, FIIIIIINE, I guess I'll get a Vita.

And then you have reactionary groups to that who spend all their time mocking and insulting the first reactionary groups (see this thread for examples). The end result is that little actual, meaningful discussion takes place over whether or not this game is sexist or misogynistic.

so uh, why are we talking about this again

not only is this a dead horse at this point, but this thread has gone months without a post in regards to the subject

Since It's bumped I think we can all agree this is a really fun beat'em up and that Kotaku is a fucking worthless blight on humanity.

>>174457
The original adaptation is pretty straight. It cuts some stuff for time (like Dorothy getting the golden skullcap that let her summon the flying monkeys) and changes a couple of tiny things, like making the slippers silver instead of red, but the plot is more or less the same other than the "all just a dream / you were there and you were there etc" bit. But using those things to say "there's never been a straight adaptation of Wizard of Oz" is like saying there's never been a straight adaptation of Lord of the Rings because they cut Tom Bombadill.

This dlc isn't just badly written, but it manages to dump on the entire franchise preceding it.

Thats impressive, in a terrible and pathetic way.

>>186546
It's always weird to see a creator destroy their own legacy, because they've gotten too much freedom and power.

Aaand the DLC unlocked for EU/NA, too! Holy crap, is the second mission fucking hard! Went in with a couple of guys from /toukigen/ and we got destroyed!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbk6K5q8HaY
Aww yeah!
Some of those new offerings look goddamn ridiculous. Really looking forward to all that faction stuff and what it's going to mean for online. And holy crap, I didn't think they could get anymore freaky and disturbing with the monster design.

Toukiden is getting the good ol' Monster Hunter rehash treatment. Supposedly double the oni, two new weapon types (naginata and firearms), new special attacks, even more fucking Mitama and a new NPC buddy.
