Welp, this topic was a rollercoaster.

Disappointed.

I'm really confused, is this actually a full reboot, as in there's an entirely new Buffy, or is it just a new series set in the same universe?
---

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

For me it was kinda the inverse of Season 1. Where Season 1 died off midway through, Season 2 didn't pick up until the halfway point and then got much better.

No, that's basically cheating.

In my defence, when I play like this it isn't so that I can loot 500 armors and sell them all. By the time I switch this on I'm usually more than comfortable money wise, it's just I can be indecisive about what to keep for my character so it's more to reduce my stress level by not having to think about it.

I do in all the Bethesda games generally. I always start the first 10 hours or whatever vanilla but after a while it just gets so tedious.

I almost did it in Witcher 3 too but after they patched alchemy ingredient weight to almost nothing, it became far more managable so I left it.

It's not coming until October like always, why bother

Wait, is it actually coming this year? I heard it was skipping this one or something?

I guess if there's a teaser already, though...

Isn't there only the one pilot at these locations that can fly the chopper? You need to spot him (IIRC he's wearing goggles or a helmet or something) then take him out first and you should be okay.

I haven't played it very much though, so it might not be that simple later on.

Hank is a good and thoughtful person.

IMO, he never hated androids. He got super fucking angry at the one that didn't save his son, and maybe even convinced himself all androids are pieces of shit. But, Hank is a good person and being 1-on-1 with Connor, who he very quickly realizes is more than just a machine snaps him out of the haze he's in.

I think the villain from Tangled also had a reprise, unless you meant like a reprise of another characters song.

Yeah, it was the way he used it which made it so venomous.

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

I fucking love Jafar's reprise. Off the top of my head, he's the only Disney villain I recall actually doing one and it helps make him extra vindictive because of it.

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

I've played 1 through 5 and it might be the most consistent game series in memory. They're all good games.

Looking forward to getting around to 0 and 6.

Kylo is probably my absolute favorite so far but as a previous poster mentioned a lot of it hinges on how his arc ends.

EDIT: Oh shit! I forgot Rebels was post-Disney! Hera!!!!!! I don't think they did it on purpose but she's an awesome character.

Pretty fond of Chirrut, Jyn and Q'ira too.

I don't dislike Tingle but there are so many other Zelda characters I like more, it'd bum me out a little.

In the reboot she rejects a man who has a crush on her and she is very close to a Japanese girl so maybe

I was so bummed out they didn't bring Sam back for Rise. It was nice seeing Lara with a real connection to someone, at least Jonah was there I guess but they don't have as much chemistry.

Hope Sam's in the next one even if it's just between journeys or something.

3D: Ocarina of Time = Wind Waker > Majora's Mask = Breath of the Wild > Twilight Princess > Skyward Sword.

Majora's Mask is only less than OoT and Wind Waker because I find the time reversal tedious as balls. The way that mechanic clicks with the rest of the game is phenomenal so it's not even really a critique of the game, I just get personally irritated/anxious from it.

BotW was great but the lack of true dungeons was sorely felt, the bosses had no real variety and the inventory management was a PITA whether or not you mind the durability aspect. Story was mostly shallow and had one of the least satisfying endings I think I've ever experienced (They really can do better, WW and SS were both more interesting).

TP was solid mechanically but felt too empty and charmless a lot of the time. Midna kinda carried the game story-wise. I loved Zant until the reveal.

SS, in spite of the awesome dungeons, bosses and a real attempt at story, had a shitty shitty overworld, an obnoxious "helper" in Fi (who is actually as bad as people claim Navi to be) and terrible controls that puts it below the rest. It was also very unpolished for a Zelda game, felt outsourced.

EDIT: Uh, forgot 2D but IIRC the only one I've played to completion was Phantom Hourglass so wouldn't be much help anyway. I've tried all the others except for ALBW but never really put the time into them to get far, they just don't hook me the same way.

Gamefaqs is designed to be viewed with dial-up. The coding is very outdated and any changes would put the website down for maintenance for weeks. It would have to be rebuilt from the ground up to implement any big changes.

Honestly, it's one of my favorite aspects about the site.

I hate the new Reddit design, get a page full of pictures slammed in your face before you even get a chance to read any context.

Nier Automata works well because it takes advantage of the video game medium.

I don't think it would hold up as well as a movie.

Exactly this.

It's the same for games like Life is Strange, you take the interactivity and decision making away from the consumer and the whole experience becomes less intimate and impactful because it no longer involves you, you're just an observer as opposed to an agent of change. Movie versions of these titles would only ever play second-fiddle -- more for non-gamers than anyone who had actually played it themselves.

I had the GBA port and spent weeks playing it. Getting the "best" ending was a pain in the butt. And then I kept playing it.

That song is so catchy!

Then I played "Bubble Bobble Revolution", hit that game-breaking bug, and havent played the series since lol

Hearing this again really makes me want them as fighters in Smash Bros. for some reason. They could have a stage and everything.

I personally don't give a shit. I played a 30 minute game with my friends yesterday. Long enough for me.

Exactly!

I've had matches online with people at a similar skill level as me and the matches have gone on so long that towards the end I'm tempted to throw them because it's too exhausting to stay on my toes that long.

There's no way I'd do 5 sets or whatever. Not a god damn chance.
---

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

It's both exciting and frustrating, so yeah maybe.

I'm hyped as hell but except for a (impressively) massive roster we know next to nothing about the actual game other than it still has multiplayer and items.
---

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

There's a bit of nuance to this scene depending how deep you wanna go.

Up until this point Spike and Buffy had been having very rough sex, including violent foreplay, there had even been times when they both said "no" but carried on anyway. I'm not sure Spike realized it was different this time until it was too late and even if he did, he's soulless and not much more than a monster (literally a demon).

That's not an attempt to excuse him or blame Buffy but rather defending the scene as it's not out of character for Spike and it becomes the motivator for him getting his soul back which puts him on a very cool redemption arc.

It is a disturbing scene though, very uncomfortable whenever I've watched it.

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

Might be time to ditch Sonic Team and outsource 3D Sonic because they've been struggling to make a decent game since SA2. Sonic Team like to say they won't do Adventure 3 because they're focusing on the "future" of Sonic or whatever but my thought is that they know they wouldn't be able to pull it off and they can't afford to fuck that one up so they just won't try.

Sonic has been bad to mediocre for so long that something needs to change, like the topic alludes to, it's amazing the franchise is even still relevant at this point.

It was pretty great and the first Star Wars movie a couple of my friends actually liked in a long, long time. You have no idea how satisfying it was to finally hear that from them.

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

If the Mass Effect trilogy was a blockbuster, Andromeda was kinda the straight to DVD sequel; it gives you everything you liked about the former but never really hits the same highs and the quality is noticeably less.

The open-world aspect was unnecessary, absolutely a great idea and ambition for the franchise but only if it was done right and Andromeda's take on open-world very quickly turns into a shit load of busy-work with nothing interesting to keep you engaged.

I enjoyed the game overall but it wasn't as good as it should have been and I probably only liked it as much as I did because I have a lot of love for the Mass Effect universe (and space-opera sci-fi in general).

P.S. The multiplayer was a complete fucking mess from launch even to now, though. Absolute clusterfuck of lag, bugs and poor design decisions.

EDIT: I do wanna add though that the gameplay was solid, the added mobility compared to previous entries was a welcome addition and the powers and guns were all good fun to use (in the singleplayer).

Not sure I'll ever forgive the internet for this one.
---

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

Nah, I think omitting it was entirely stupid.

It's especially dumb now because Disney is counting the spin-offs as canon anyway and for the last however many years we've had videogames with the opening crawl and even the canon Clone Wars movie had it (IIRC?) so... What's the point?

Kinda too late now, though. It's not a huge deal I just don't think it ever really made any sense and it always felt more like Star Wars with than without.
---

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

I used to turn it, film grain and depth of field off for most games but after a while I got to the point where I just stopped caring. I figure the game is visually built around those things being switched on so you're probably muting the artistic style in some ways.

Obviously for multiplayer games that shit is off, though.

EDIT: The vignette effect in Witcher 3 can burn in hell though, that crap caused severe eye strain to me for some reason.

Can't say yet they didn't really show us anything and hearing it secondhand from journalists doesn't work on me anymore >.>

I'm down for giving CDPR the benefit of the doubt but them showing it to journalists privately and not the rest of us has my alarm bells ringing.

From my experience with the gaming industry it would be naive to expect what they saw to be what we actually get come release.

An Adventure Mode similar to Melee's would be nice too.

I've always dreamed of an Adventure Mode that was slightly more curated to each character. For example, Mario's final fight would be a buffed up Bowser with Wario and the Koopalings as sub-bosses and various mooks to platform past (Goombas, Koopa Troopers etc...) along the way. Obviously this wouldn't be as snug a fit for each character but I'm sure they could make do with what they have. The narrative could be strung together by screenshots taken in-game with some brief captions.

I'd die.

It's weird how badly I want a demo for this game despite already knowing full well what to expect for the most part. Can't wait to get my hands on Ganon and Zelda.

Also, I read someone had the current stage count at over 80 now? It's looking increasingly likely that Sakurai might be going for every stage to return, as well as the characters. My jaw dropped when Saffron City made an appearence during the invitational, it was one of my favorite stages back on 64. I hope Mushroom Kingdom 64 and Sector Z make it too.

Yeah, Classic Mode in the Wii U version was hot garbage. idk how you fuck it up so badly like that.

It really was awful. Fighting those bosses over and over again only to have to do a freaking dungeon too was exhausting. Spent as much time on those as you did getting to them.

Then there's the crapload of forced multi-man matches. It was way better on the 3DS. I hope they go back to classic Classic this time.

Shadow is totally going to be a Sonic Echo that's yet to be revealed.

Really would rather have Tails though.

Hopefully Jeanne is a Bayonetta echo.

I think Ken, Ms. Pacman and Zach would be good qualifiers too, they wouldn't have to touch the moves if they didn't want to.

I honestly never realized there were that many homophobes, or, excuse me, "people who have no problem with homosexuals but feel like it's maybe pandering" on this website.

Yeah they're definitely in the wrong here, you could switch it to a man/woman pairing and it doesn't impact that entire trailer in any way. If that's possible how does it even qualify for pandering.

But honestly, the series became nothing more than a historical simulator years ago.

Which sucked for me because the modern day part was always my favorite. That aspect of the narrative had me so hyped and it just ended on a whimper and then the next few games were half-heartedly dragging the husk around, so I'm glad to hear it's back (slowed down on the games after this, still need to play Syndicate).

No FFVII Remake. Didn't show that avengers game developed with SE.

To be fair though, neither of these are their (Sony's) fault.

Gotta say I'm starting to question if that Avengers game is even still happening now. SE really need to sort themselves out, it's tedious being a fan of their games.

I have to admit other than the great graphics, it really does just come across as nonsense so far. Maybe when we start getting some proper context it'll get more interesting but this is definitely one to wait on reviews for at the moment.

"I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment."

Depends how easy it is to bring those same maps forward. If bringing the ones that were already in the last title takes the same amount of time as legacy maps we haven't seen for years then sure, some fresh blood would be welcome.

But if it's quicker to port the ones we're already used to while adding a couple fresh ones, I'd rather they do that.

I do really miss Saffron City and Mushroom Kingdom from 64 though.

I don't know if the plot itself is convoluted or if it's just presented poorly but whenever I'm playing one of the games at some point it tends to click and I follow it fine but then a week after I'm done it's all just a huge jumble again.
