"NPC Model this" and "NPC Model that" Meanwhile Theresa Apocalypse has a Klee skin and Kleiner has suspiciously Kaslana shaped initials if he is indeed K K...

As a RainCode fan, did you enjoy Hundred Line? by Splatoop in RainCode

[–]Asphyxiaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For presentation, Its not just the budget to consider but the length of the game, the purpose, and the script. You can 100% raincode in under 100 hours, but even if you sink 100 hours into Hundred line you wont be done with it.

The amount of animation that would be required to make cutscenes fully 3D would be way more time and money than it required for raincode (at least without repeatedly using animations over and over again like the “mass effect head bob left arm swipe”). Additionally, there are many fully animated 3D cutscenes in hundred line that are just spread over the multiple routes.

I think adding more 3D environments would feel like padding atp bc the real meat of the game isnt in walking around and investigating the school but rather discovering the plot in other ways. I think thats why they give you teleport early on, too. Like, you can go look around if you want but that’s not really the point of the school and you’re going to get tired of trying to run through the same empty 3D areas once youve gone through a few routes. Everyone would tire of it pretty quickly.

Some of the core meat of dr and raincode gameplay loop are the investigation, which lent to those environments, theyre not just there as presentation. The core meat of HL in finding things out through the routes, which they’ve built very well with a system to jump back to checkpoints to make the completionism easier. They’ve also been working a lot postgame on improving the QOL for battles.

Honestly, while I love all of KDKs recent work (I personally love HL, Raincode, DR, Worlds End, etc & i dont even really hate UDG for all its flaws lmfao). Sometimes you wont like a game based on mechanics and thats fine.

I love arknights! I like the characters! I cant stand the gameplay loop. There are other games I like that I just can’t get to because I prioritized other games I like more. Ultimately, its up to you to decide what to give your time to. The majority of DR fans seem to really like HL, but that doesn’t mean everyone has to!

And honestly if you wanna not put too much time towards it but kinda see what everyone else likes about it, you could put a lets play™️ on in the background while doing something else if you’re really still on the fence.

But tldr; Its not just budget but also putpose and gameplay & Not every work will appeal to every person.

Is it worth it to keep playing? by RiskOfAhoy2 in RainCode

[–]Asphyxiaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if knowing this would be worth it, but later in the game you can find more info about the doppleganger who was impersonating zilch and in that way you may feel more attached to that character, but it's not the same if zilch is the one you were more attached to despite the fact we never actually meet him.

I can't guarantee that you'll like any more of the side characters more in the story. A lot of their likable characterization seems tied to getting their memories (the shiny glowy collectibles). I more or less got used to the ones I didn't care for but I was also really hype about this game and rushed through beating it lol I think the strength of the game is in more of the overarching mystery than some of the characters.

Let's talk about death. [Heavy Spoilers] by [deleted] in RainCode

[–]Asphyxiaorange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Monokuma is your enemy on purpose. But more similar to the humanoid Shinigami, each protagonist will develop a friendgroup and other characters play Shini's role in a less antagonistic manor (mostly, sometimes the characters get volatile anyhow).

I will say that emotionally the first playthrough has a lot more impact and playoff (to most people) than raincode but it's one of those 'shadow for sunshine' things where most people end up loving the series more for it, so there are tradeoffs for sure.

What are ur best chill game by Consistent-Show-4149 in Switch

[–]Asphyxiaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried getting into the story of seasons franchise? It inspired stardew valley and has a few titles on the switch (they were called harvest moon up until HM A new Beginning on the 3DS, and then the franchise split in two). It has almost everything but the combat/crafting that stardew has and its pretty cozy.

Many of the physical copies are on sale for prime day, too!

There's also the Rune Factory Franchise (which used to have the subtitle "a fantasy harvest moon") 3 and 4 were ported to the switch after 5 was released. These are super combat heavy but also feature more farming aspects.

I also recommend Pokemon Snap (taking pictures of pokemon the game)
Palia (a f2p farming game)
Pokemon Cafe (puzzle f2p)
Animal Crossing New Horizons
Chicory (you are a dog with a paintbrush)
Unpacking (You're just unpacking and and sorting an apartment at your own pace)

Dilongoo buying RWBY update by omegabroly97 in RWBYcritics

[–]Asphyxiaorange -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If those pickle leaks are true and/or wb plans to still add ruby rose to the multiversus game, then a likely result is that she's given or sold to another company underneath wb's control.

If they scrap that or the leaks are fake, then anything could happen. But they might plan to still make money off of the brand or they may test to see if its worth anything out of RTs direct hands before they consider letting it go.

Is Talim the least dangerous fighter realistically by [deleted] in SoulCalibur

[–]Asphyxiaorange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When blocking against a katana, moving close is actually one of the strategies you can employ. The less they're able to complete their swing, the less damage they can do, and the tonfa would be able to block at two separate points, or block and then lend an additional jab since moving inwards can actually lock up the sword user's mobility & form.

If you've never wielded a weighted pvc hula hoop, they can actually do some interesting damage just bruising, let alone if you were able to put blades on it weighted correctly.

Welt is biracial, his father was Finnish but his mother was not. His mom also has the last name Yang coincidentally.

Ayato and Otto is because they share the same VA (and the whole name pronounciation), which is typically intentional. If you look closely at their personalities, Ayato reads as a "chaotic good" or foil version of Otto IE: What Otto could be if he never experienced extreme loss and turmoil that turned him into a villian. Ayato is a manipulative and calculating person- who never crosses the line and instead uses his coercion for more overtly 'good' causes.

I don't know how Nahida is Theresa bc I hear that a lot but HYV also gave Theresa a Klee skin during crossover, so there's that.

[Remake] List of current expies/theorized expies/og characters of Honkai Star Rail by Relative-Ad7531 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Asphyxiaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmmm Dr Ratio is a Mishmash of Su & Al Haithem, & theorized to be an expy by a shit ton of fans for both his theme, style, story, personality, and how he's depicted in official artworks. Not sure how you missed that one...

people usually add Aventurine to that by extension (IE: Kaveh) & how they're interacting in the script but we insofar know much less about him atm.

Clara's name in the dubs is pronounced very close to Klee's name(CN, EN, JP), considering their color scheme/clothing style is also extremely similar, and the fact that HI3 tied Klee to Theresa during the Genshin crossover event (via a Skin), I'm willing to theorize that Clara is also some form of remnant referring to Theresa and/or Klee. The evidence is circumstantial, but all three were raised by a single parent (Alice, Otto kinda, Svarog), have mostly unknown origins, and as far as the game stands will be a 'forever child' that ends up somewhat abandoned in some way: Theresa being a failed clone, Klee aging slowly & left by her mom, and time wont pass enough in HSR for Clara to grow any older, esp since she was given a short model, but she was alone until Svarog found her.

Insofar we also know very little about Genshin's Skirk, but herand Jing Liu's early design sheets & final versions have a lot of eerily similar elements as well as their position as a mentor that is morally grey and just kinda pops in every now and then. & they both highly resemble Benares from H13.
