  • Bigot, ingrate, sycophant, worm. So small, I could smite you with a step. There was a time I would smite you all for what was done to Storm.
  • Magneto: But today, I have saved you from your own, for an old friend has challenged me to remember this view of Earth. How vast it is versus how small we make it. Charles Xavier entrusted me with his dream, and it does not ask you to love or embrace my kind as your own, but merely to accept that this is a shared world with a common future, and that my kind, like yours, have the right to live in it. I am trying to be better.

Are some side quests actually interesting. I have done 28 of them and they are so much worse than Yakuza 0, IW, gaiden and Yakuza 7. Only thing I found interesting is seeing the Yakuza 0 kids grown up so far and I don't feel like doing the car stuff again

(I was misled by some dumb facebook post by rgg studio that gaiden was "a great place to start"

Photorealism, by definition, is not stylized. It's entite purpose is to emulate reality.

Photorealism is a genre of art that encompasses painting, drawing and other graphic media, in which an artist studies a photograph and then attempts to reproduce the image as realistically as possible in another medium.
I know. That was my point?

True but she was also the only reason why there was anything left of Spira to save in the first place.

Also makingJecht into Sin is the only reason Sin could be defeated, so once again butterfly effected saving the world.

Pretty much the embodiment of the Nolan "Die a hero or live long enough to become the villain "

Ironically, it felt like a bit of a redemption arc.

That said as toxic as Jecht can be, he is hot

This show keeps knocking it out of the park with every episode.
Those final few scenes with Valerie Cooper describing what many feel when watching the news along with Bastion's apathy speech hit hard. It's crazy how an 5 hour long animated series is able to easily capture what Fox was trying to do for 2 decades.

This episode also has my favorite quote from the season with the Wolverine/Nightcrawler banter.

Fox made made a lot of people see the x men a "generic action superhero" franchise when the social aspect is so important in that franchise

Maybe that is the issue. If you are not some jackass or psychopath people don't like you. They is why people like Logan over Cyclops .

People love Cyclops in x men 97 though.

Although I feel like some of us got older and we relate more to some characters struggle than we used to

I absolutely hate cyclops line of "acceptance must be earned, not forced" in the og cartoon though. I understand not wanting to resort to violence, but I have problems with the "earned" part

Square-Enix so badly wants to sit at the big boy table with other AAA publishers

Yet they routinely take exclusivity deals from whoever will offer them: Sony, Nintendo, or even the fucking Epic store. Instead of having faith in their products and releasing them to everyone

And they chase stupid trends like GaaS or NFTs, but are always too late to the party and their dumb shit always fails

This is 100% on them

FF7 was the 2nd best selling PS game and FFX the 5th. I wonder what happed after FFX. I

I feel like their identity crisis of chasing trends hurt them in the long run.

ESPECIALLY NFT

Their remakes/remasters of older titles were regularly performing better then expected, and large releases usually the opposite. I think any remasters are at least relatively safe, as long as they were actually in dev and not just speculation/an obscure old title.

I mean Final Fantasy 7 and X were well known to be system sellers. They were both in the top 5 most popular games of their eras. I don't think a lot of people bought a ps5 just for FF16. That's kinda the risk when you change the litetal face of a genre. Mario explored tons of different genres of games, but the mainline games are still platformers

There's also the fact that BG3 was very popular and Infinite wealth and persona as well.

BG3 and Infinite wealth showed you can innovate the turn based systems by adding a lot of aoe that is more complex than "one or all ennemies"(which used to be done by chrono trigger, but whatever). Mobility adds a lot depth to those games system as well. People would probably enjoy a FF that innovates on the classic formula

Canceling DQ would be the dumbest decision they could do tbh

It's already rumored to be a dark action game.

If they mean dark like Tales, like light hearted at time, horrible at others(People love acting like Vesperia is more mature than Symphonia due to Yuri being a more mature protagonist and one game, but I thought the themes were actually darker in symphonia)

DQ also got more popular in western countries(although I guess younger gens might have learned about DQ because of smash)

Dude isn't whiny at all for a literal orphan teenager going through the shit he goes through in the game

I think people would be more accepting now but back then he was being compared to guys like Solid Snake or Chris Redfield or Kazuya or Ryu or Scorpion or Kratos who have the emotional range of a teaspoon between them.

I think it's because a lot of us were teen and kids back then and young people tend to vastly overestimate their maturity so teens though they were solid Snake or Kratos when they were actually more immature than Tidus

They litetally sold Eidos Montreal for NFT after the guardian of the galaxy game did well. It just didn't do well enough for them. I feel like SE wanna reach GTA numbers, but the thing is, games like gta and CoD do pander to casuals who only play 3 games so while the sales are great, a lot of people who buy those games will have a small collection library

Of course, gay and transphobic jokes were never funny since at the very best theyre lazy, but it shouldnt be wrong to talk poke fun at peoples differences.


Making gay jokes can be funny when it's not homophobic. Joking about the ridiculous amount of body categorisation of gay men bodies is very different than making fun of someone because they are gay

Wow, very dumb. I do like that he used the now antiquated PC as the shorthand for thing I dont like instead of woke. Feels quaint and nostalgic now.

The whole things ruined by the fact that network sitcoms have always had some of the most flaccid, safe comedy in the universe, the fact that the boundaries comedies push nowadays are far beyond what Seinfeld was capable of and especially the fact that sitcoms dying is an obvious result of cable dying, which has nothing to do with the extreme left or PC. Also, its worth noting that Bill Mahers Politically Incorrect ran during 5 years of the only thing people remember him for (other than the Bee Movie).

I think PC was the buzzword before sjw?

Can say the same about the extreme right though.
Not a tv show, but Eiyuden Chronicles: Hundred Heroes came out last week, and the right has been attacking everything about the localization, just because the word "chud" is in it. Not saying there aren't problems with some of the script, but when the one criticizing it use the word "woke" in the criticism, you know which side it is.

They did that for Yakuza a few months ago because of a lecture about sexism(which still exist in the japanese version). The game still has plenty of "offensive" humor

A gay person just have to exist in some show for them to throw tantrums about "forced agendas" and "politics"

The thing is a lot of leftists still love south park despite them being peak enlightened centrist. A rightist will try to boycott and cancel everything that do not feature a straight white men or sexualised women

Also Brooklyn 99 was pretty popular and they didn't need to make fun of trans people 99% of the time like conservatives do

There's absolutely unhinged people on circle jerk subreddits in both directions and then you have the game boards here versus the game board at ResetEra where even suggesting Eve looks hot or that you could play the game in a non-revealing costume will get you banned. This game is causing both sides of a dumb culture war to show their entire asses for everyone to see. I am sure I will eventually get the game on sale in the future and whatever status her outfits are in at that point will have no impact on my buying decision. Gameplay is considered good by most critics and players and that's what I play games for.

I am not saying they don't exist, but I still see people whining about Abby not being hot in almost every gaming groups I am in. You know which gaming games groups I never joined? The last of us groups
