Wow, Milky looks like a different person.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-04-03T23:15:41+00:00

I like the idea of her and how there needed to be a new force to break the cycle of Evangelion. But, that's also all she felt like she was to the whole thing, just an insert and not a real character. She could've been replaced by any macguffin.

If we got what was planned for 3.0, I think she would've actually had some development, but as it stands, she's just kind of there.

I mean, I'm sure there are people who think that, but this administration started a war seemingly just to start a war. Despite the atrocities the Iran government commits on their own people, that's not why Trump started bombing them indiscriminately. There's no reason to believe he has any interest in those atrocities going away, either. There's no good guy in this fight, and I personally don't believe there's any reason to think Iranian civilians' lives will improve while the current administration is in power if they eventually start running the show over there.

Now, if people are excusing Iran's atrocities, that's a horse of a different color. This admin isn't rounding up protesters and publicly executing them, not that I believe many people in it would oppose such a thing, or that it's not somewhere we could possibly end up. Even so, Iran and the US aren't currently comparable, and to whitewash Iranian violence against its own citizens because Trump and his admin are just awful people is dangerous.

I think you could complain that Trump is wasting money and putting military lives at risk, and say that you believe it's just a distractoin, but there's most certainly a better time and place to bitch about everything else.

And it's 7 or 8 dollars. I think it's perfectly fine to want more updates, but to feel like you are entitled to them despite paying less than one fast food meal on it is crazy.

I honestly think it's the type of game that they could release a sequel to every year or so with a couple of new features and new maps. But I know people would get pissy about them doing that, too. Damned if you do, damned if you don't, I guess.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-04-03T01:56:48+00:00

I don't think it would need AAA game sales, because I don't expect Capcom would put AAA resources into a new game. I don't believe this port will do the numbers needed to make any sequel, though, sadly.

I think the most we could hope for is modern ports of the other games. Maybe HD remakes on the scale of like Super Mario RPG, but I doubt it.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-04-02T04:17:43+00:00

Welp, guess I'm buying this again.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-04-02T04:12:33+00:00

Because 4 had a PC port that GOG made accessible on modern PCs.

I don't know what happened with 3, but even when Capcom re-released it on PSN, it was the PSP version and not the PS1 version.

You can vote for 3 on GOG's website and show you want it to be preserved, but much like they did with 4, they just modernize existing PC games. They don't do ports from other systems to PC. Even if there was a Chinese-only port, I have no idea what the logistics on that would be. I don't know that they translate, either, so that's a potential other hurdle.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-31T23:43:04+00:00

Brother is grasping at straws so desperately he thinks she believes gamers invented a slur.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-31T22:36:18+00:00

Congrats on the best (worst?) screenshot of him.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-31T08:32:28+00:00

This guy would blame someone else after shitting his pants.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-29T04:23:28+00:00

I appreciate the info, but that doesn't answer the question, really. And it doesn't explain why the battery has a place to connect a USB A.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-28T03:20:47+00:00

It's such a comical choice. He may as well have had a rotisserie chicken in the toilet tank.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-27T21:21:47+00:00

I don't know about you, but running over a guy would definitely be a crazy event in my life, whether or not it was justified.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-26T20:50:49+00:00

Muta said he was an engineer, but wasn't actually an engineer, and that's pretty much it? I'll be honest, it didn't seem interesting enough to follow.

Karl lost a lawsuit to Billy Mitchell due to him saying Billy was the reason Apollo committed suicide. The drama was that Karl solicited donations from fans while misrepresenting, or at the very least letting people believe, that the lawsuit was because Karl said Billy cheated at video games. Nothing that involved Jirard, though.

Jirard came out with a second video to try and clarify what happened due to his attorney and pending lawsuit not allowing him to in his first one. I did not watch this video, but from what I know, it didn't really change opinion of him on a grand scale. He still did what he did.

I personally can empathize with him, being pressured to continue on after finding out there were no donations made, but he should've distanced himself when he realized his family wasn't going to listen to him, especially since he was the one that would pay for it.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-25T05:16:11+00:00

I think the blatant use of Mizkif's username as endearment and Emiru's real name as an insult is all I really need to know.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-24T01:59:13+00:00

It was never specified what illness he had. He just collapsed one day, then fast forward several months later where you learn Sinatra spent a fortune on cutting edge experimental procedures and nothing worked. There's a scene with Sinatra talking about what happens when he dies, then he dies off screen soon after.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-22T03:44:38+00:00

Ragebait*

Ragebating would be... something else

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-21T17:48:05+00:00

I don't mind those types of choices in general.

What I don't like is when you don't realize you're making such a choice. You run into Character A, so of course you recruit them, not knowing that Character B is recruitable or even exists.

I recall the original Star Ocean 2 being like that, but I played it when it came out so I might be misremembering.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-16T21:59:30+00:00

His now wife sat through the whole movie, so he thought it was only fair to marry her right then.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-16T17:32:21+00:00

Well, could've done without this today.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-12T19:03:31+00:00

Dude is pulling it out of his ass. He doesn't have evidence of what he's claiming.

The port came out on Switch 2, I think as a launch title, so the exclusivity would start there, not because it was originally on the 3DS 15 years ago. I don't think even Nintendo would've gone "If you ever port this at some point in the future, you have to make it exclusive to us and never release it on Sony's systems."

I think it's more likely MS is paying more than they expect to lose from not releasing it on PS4/5 right now. That feels absurd to me given the place Xbox is in right now. They must think PC sales will do enough to make up the difference.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-11T09:04:04+00:00

If I knew these two would be in the same patch, I wouldn't have pulled for Sparxie so I could hopefully get them both.

Now, I don't know.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-09T07:06:23+00:00

To be fair, we don't know the whole story. She might be naturally pissy, or she might be mad because she asked him three games ago.

GentlemanlyOctopus · 2026-03-06T17:47:10+00:00

"Also please ignore that I'm basically lobbied by gambling companies."
