I need to give Death Stranding another shot

I played an hour or two before I got distracted by other things and never got back to it

It is the greatest video game of all time with the least amount of fun. An awesome experience I will never do again. Until DS2 I guess, but I honestly might just youtube the cutscenes this time around.

My Best Friend the Terrorist

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d3e9f669.jpg
9 . Crow Armbrust, aka C, aka Azure Siegfried

In all the hustle and bustle of The Great Twilight and civil war and Mecha-Mishy, we can forget that our beloved Crow was a bona fide terrorist. He's funny, he's a bit of a scamp, and oh yeah, I guess he's a murderer? I don't actually remember if the ILF actually killed anybody or if they just blew stuff up. Sure, it was to resist Osborne, but I'm not sure that lets you off the hook, Crow! You're not in the clear for that whole embarassing "Azure Siegfried" phase either. I guess it's a Sailor Moon reference to when Tuxedo Mask was mind controlled but that was just embarassing my dude.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/b50145c0.jpg
8 . Loewe, aka Lorence, aka Leonhardt the Bladelord

Having the most iconic boss battle in the series will get you far on this list. If you're playing along at home, "OP hero" equals bad. "OP antagonist" equals ok (unless you're McBurn). Loewe died a long time ago canonically and people still can't shut up about Joshua's big bro from Hamel. If he was so tough he should've killed Agate and saved us from the misery of Titagate. Or he could've killed Ragnard the dragon. Or he should've killed us! (which he did, quite a few times on hard mode at least).

Bonus List: Best places to live in Zemuria

10 - Eryn Village, Erebonia
Who wouldn't want to live in generic Middle Earth where the mayor is an 800 year old pre-teen?

9 - Armorica Village, Crossbell
If you can't handle to bustle of Crossbell, why not try out one of its rural suburbs?

8 - Ymir, Erebonia
A bit cold perhaps, but I love me some hot springs.

7 - Legram, Erebonia
Small city, full of mist. It's like Inaba but less fun. Bonus haunted castle!

6 - Grancel, Liberl
I've always dreamed of living in a castle city. I prefer this over Heimdallr. Too soviet.

5 - Trista, Erebonia
College towns are the best. A bit boring during the summer perhaps.

4 - Alster, Erebonia
A bit small and out of the way, but it's a quiet and peaceful distillery town. (Ignore the scary crater behind it).

3 - Ruan, Liberl
Simply love a drawbridge. Close to good schools and burnable orphanages.

2 - Ordis, Erebonia
Close to Raquel, but also full of commerce and a beautiful harbor. You have to be rich to live here.

1 - Crossbell City, Crossbell
Yeah, the mafia/gang wars /constant threat of war sucks, but it's perfect otherwise. Good wi-fi.

Bonus Question: Whats your most painful loss as a sports fan?

Federer losing to Djokovic in the 2019 Wimbledon men's final. The first final's with the new 5th set rules. Federer having two championship points on his serve and blowing it. Fed's storybook ending was denied and Djokovic is going on to get all the records. It haunts me to this day.

Infinity Nikki is my pick for best of this set but DW Origins, Astro Bot, Ballad of Antara, Marvelwatch and Where Winds Meet all looked good. Not a bad showcase, if short and comically mismanaged by wasting so much time on a game no one cares about in Concord.

Concord is Redfall all over again. I actually legitimately feel bad for the devs. They clearly signed on for this project five years ago when the whole gaming climate was COMPLETELY different. It's coming out now like a musician trying to cash in on a trend that died two years ago. Unless it ends up being a surprise success that whole studio's going to get shuttered by the end of the year.

Where were you hiding that?

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/5/5b786f50.jpg
12 . Arianrhod, aka Lianne Sandlot

Pictured above: Me, trying to justify why Arianrhod is ranked so highly. Firstly, Siegfried is my favorite Soul Calibur character. Secondly, I think her backstory is probably the best thing about the whole "War of the Lions"/ Dreichels / resurrection stuff that makes up CS3 and 4. Thirdly: that Azure battle. Probably the best and most difficult AP optional fight in the series? Fourthly: I just wanted to rank the sword babes together. Deal with it.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/0dca73cb.jpg
11 . Laura S. Arseid

Besides being the objectively best hetero-pairing for Rean, Laura has other stuff going for her too. The rivalry/friendship with Fie feels real and earned. Her bonding events are actually interesting for the most part (Her CS4 romance route is the only one that doesn't feel pandering). She's a secret Mishy stan. It's a shame her English VA changed at least twice it seems (bless the person trying to do a Laura impression in CS4 but it just ain't it). I get it if you think she's boring though, because yeah, I can only take so much "I have to master the Arseid school" stuff.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/2/26f70bd5.jpg
10 . Rixia Mao

Accuse me of falling for obvious sex appeal if you want, but if the question is "who's the "best girl" in the Trails series?" the answer is unequivocally Rixia Mao. A sweet dancer during the day and a sweet assassin at night. Every 13 year old's dream girl. Still, if she was only weeb bait I don't think she'd rank this high. I think she's well-written with a great design. Yes, it's completely obvious she's Yin from the beginning, but in a case like this it's not about the secret identity itself, but the dramatics surrounding the secret identity.

Up next: Since we're into the top 10, let's kill momentum with a bonus ranking of the best towns.

Lloyd is infinitely better written than Rean and it's not even close lol. And as someone said earlier he is actually competent and serves to progress the story with his own discoveries and actions far more than Rean who is basically guided by fate and plot devices. The most agency he has is picking which one of the 18 girls who are attracted to him he can hug at the end of the game

That was me. Even acknowledging this he's less interesting than Rean since he's such a typical good guy.

There can be only one

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/0de90b3d.jpg
15 . Lloyd Bannings

Look at Bannings board 8! I almost called him Lloyd Irving. Wrong Lloyd. Our first MC off the board, but really it's a toss-up between he and Rean. I could see it either way. Lloyd has a more interesting backstory than Rean (at least at first): he's out to solve the mystery behind his older brother's murder, as well as become a baby-faced assassin (of juggy babes) himself. He's optimistic and has a strong sense of justice, which doesn't say much since that's every JRPG protag ever. I guess I do find him to be a tad generic and a bit too much of a goody-goody.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/c/c93b3367.jpg
14 . Rean Schwarzer

The harem king himself. He's slightly better than Lloyd, despite the harem stuff, which sucks. It wouldn't be so bad if they figured out a way to make the romance stuff optional. Putting all of that aside, I have to admit he's kind of cool. He's got that whole Bleach thing going, with the whole Hollow-fication inner monster stuff. He's also a gundam pilot! It's just like one of my Japanese animes. Just watch Rean's CS4 s-craft and tell me he's not cool. I will say that Rean basically just reacts to the events of his games the whole time. I feel like Lloyd and Estelle both actually "guide the action" of their games much more prominently than he does.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/c/cdb7e61c.jpg
13 . Joshua Astray

One better than his Enforcer number, Joshua could be thought of as the "male MC" of Trails in the Sky FC I guess. That's my logic for putting him in this grouping at least. He's also got his own female following. I used to really like Joshua, but I feel like stuff with him gets resolved way too quickly. He and Estelle have their beach moment in SC and everything is basically back to normal. I still feel like I don't know anything about him basically. Thank christ for double slash though.

Up next: the return of big sword energy

I don't see Noel on that list!

"Special Support Section" sounds like a fashion feature

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/9/911dc4ef.jpg
19 . Randy Orlando

Winner of the "Most Likely to Be Fired for Sexual Harassment" superlative, Randy is a pretty swell guy (so long as you can get around his murderous past and playboy present).It's a kind of put-upon swagger that I don't usually go for, but Randy pulls it off pretty well. He's got some genuinely funny moments, and when he isn't around at the beginning of Azure you definitely feel his absence. He makes the leap to Cold Steel pretty much intact.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/fe75d7a6.jpg
18 . Zeit

It's a dog. He's not on the level of Repede or Red XIII, but he's firmly in the second level of dog/wolf playable JRPG characters (with Koromaru I guess). He's also the guardian spirit of Crossbell, so he theoretically could have just transformed into a giant wolf spirit earlier to save us all a lot of trouble. But then we wouldn't have much of a story would we?

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d77bc7d7.jpg
17 . Juna Crawford

Juna is really good. Personality wise, she's a perfect blend of Estelle and Lloyd without some of the stuff that makes Lloyd kind of boring. There's a world out there in the multiverse where Rean doesn't come back until the end of Cold Steel 4 and it gets to be "her game." I think that would've been such a cool idea, because she is essentially the MC of CS4 for the first third, and she does a great job. Unfortunately that isn't what happens, and she quickly drops in relevancy as soon as Rean returns.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/6/65a4c617.jpg
16 . Tio Plato

Everyone danced and made a wishy with Mishy in order for Tio to be ranked this high. At first, I really didn't see the appeal (again, I played CS before Crossbell). The Crossbell games might have some issues, but Tio definitely isn't one of them. I must protect this smart child. I have to say it kind of sucks how reliant players have to be on her S-Craft in the superbosses. But that's what Zeram capsules are for I suppose.

He doesn't deserve you

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/8/8dbfc5a9.jpg
22 . Duvalie the Swift

I do not remember the context of this photo. Maybe there was an ice cream cone glued to Duvalie's head somehow, and Rean is trying to remove it? Regardless, Duvalie deserves praise for being an Ouroborous member who actually cares that nothing that they do makes a lick of sense in CS3 and 4. She's classic tsun, but not to an annoying degree. Props for that CS4 outfit too. So much better than the clunky Stahlritter armor. She basically should leave Ouroborous for good and join Thors as a soccer coach or something.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/ddca7f24.jpg
21 . Noel Seeker

Poor Noey. She's a bit of a cop, and not a "cool cop" the way the rest of the SSS are. Her mini-heel turn felt earned because of all the setup throughout Azure. Despite her brief toe-dipping into fascism, she's still cute and I liked her way more than Elie. I guess Noel's kind of like Makoto from Persona 5: strong sense of responsibility, a bit nerdy. Unfortunately for her chances with Lloyd, Rixia also exists.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/0b3eac5c.jpg
20 . Josette Capua

I probably am the world' biggest Josette defender. I'd go so far as to say, IN TERMS OF JOSHUA SHIPPING ONLY, she's better than Estelle. One, because they're not brother and goddamn sister, and two, because their rapport just feels much more interesting than the wholesome Estelle stuff. She's a sky pirate! She's a displaced noble! She's a reformed villain! She's funny! She has all this stuff going for her, but no, they have to completely kick this character to the curb once Joshua and Estelle get together.

Yes, she should have been better incorporated into the party in SC. But I'm still glad they did it! As far as her appearances in Cold Steel: screw Falcom cause she's awful in that series. She doesn't even feel like the same character. Part of this is due to the graphical engine giving everyone same-face, but part of it is the fact they completely took away all of her interesting qualities and just turned her into basically Alisa I guess. Another thing Falcom: YOU CAN'T JUST GIVE PEOPLE LONG HAIR TO SHOW THAT THEY'RE OLDER. It's lazy and sexist you pieces of (*gets chloroformed*)
