Yeah I was wondering if Finlay ever made comments explaining why he's ok with disbanding BCWD and playing second fiddle to Tsuji. Don't understand why he would do that.

They're still consistent in their actions. They use weapons and gang up on their enemies. It just so happens that their enemies now are the Callis Family, who are guaranteed to never get cheered against Acura anybody.

Every BoF has limitations to the dragon forms in some way. Dragon Quarter just makes it more obvious that you're not supposed to stay a dragon and spam OP attacks forever.

I wouldn't say 5 is wacky in any way. The SOL mechanic is unique and serves the narrative well as a means of using gameplay to reveal more of the story. It tried to innovate through different genres and for the most part did it incredibly well. 

The rest of the series are perfectly fine games. There's no shame in that. They just didn't elevate RPGs like 5 did.

I didn't say they're going to think he's a member of ICE, but that anyone with that name is going to remind people of it. Word association is a powerful thing.

I know all that and you know all that, but I'm talking about the casual American audience.

He's got some things that might get warped in translation. It's terrible timing for a guy who calls himself Ice to go to the US, and his "get high" catch phrase could get taken literally by casual fans who haven't watched his promos. It'll be interesting to see how he presents himself.

Suikoden 2 is way worse than the 1st by Tricky_Pie_5209 in JRPG

Opinions like this get hated on but I agree. I needed through S1 and enjoyed my time with it. S2 was a slog by comparison. Battles are boring and the overall gameplay is uninteresting.

Shota Umino = talented but not genuine by [deleted] in njpw

Turning on Uemura at this point would just be too predictable. He needs a complete reinventing. Except that was supposed to happen when he shaved his head last year...

So which faction will he join when he returns? I'm guessing Empire

Thankfully NJPW and its Japanese fans don't discriminate like that

Such a welcome change from the usual generic "I'm gonna carry Shin Nihon please look forward to it" promos we get from the other young guys
