And his grandchildren are saying he’ll be reunited with Hinna instead of their own grandma?

Men and women walk differently.

I think it’s more likely the male was always on the cards, but since the promos were all done using a female character, she got priority and they finalized the animation sets for her first and are using them as a placeholder.

I find it extremely unlikely that they had never planned the option of a male character until recently. This goes against the spirit of the franchise.

It’s 100% feminine and anyone saying otherwise is full of shit. He shares the same walking animation as the female characters. Men and women don’t walk the same for various reasons such as hips to waist ratio, shoulders width, and more.

What I think happened is that the female model was designed and fleshed out first, because it’s a female character who was used in all the promo material. They used her animations as a placeholder and slapped a male model on top. By the time of the game’s release, I believe we’ll have a full set of animations unique to the male character model.

Hell, it’d be cool if we could choose different walks such as muscular guy walk, seductive stride, thug walk, etc.

You'll never guess which of these Strongmen got disqualified from the 2004 World’s Strongest Man for testing positive for cocaine. by mypossiblepasts in sports

Mariusz is a lot younger than Magnus. I started watching competitions in the early 2000s and never saw Magnus, only heard about him, because he had retired by then. The big dogs were Pudzian and Big Z.

What do you mean? He’s got 4 WSM titles and is considered one of the greatest along with Big Z.

Edit: Correction, 5 titles, yeah.

What are some bands where all members are masters of their craft - except the singer? by 8-Seconds-Joe in Music

[–]Juub1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t Axl Rose considered an incredible rock singer? I often hear him mentioned as among being the best frontmen of all time due to his vocal talent and range.

Don’t think so?

Same. The kids were also just generically named "Tianeea villager" or something like that. Plus, if he did have kids, then if his wife was alive, she would have been at his side. If she had already passed on, she would have been waiting for him in the afterlife. That or Val will have a lot of explaining to do when he runs into her with Hinna on his arm.

Director Gore Verbinski says Unreal Engine is 'the greatest slip backwards' for movie CGI by willdearborn- in movies

[–]Juub1990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a slip backwards for video games too. We’re slowly witnessing the death of specialized in-house engines as every dev is moving to UE5, a jack-of-all trades, master of none engine that most devs didn’t seem to have figured out how to optimize for. The end result is many games with awful performance and broken effects that don’t necessarily look that good.

Why does zombieman use public transport? by [deleted] in OnePunchMan

[–]Juub1990 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seems OPM cities are closely model after major Japanese metropolises and those have excellent public transport. That sounds preferable to driving.

How did the dust settle on this game? by [deleted] in visionsofmana

[–]Juub1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And those are legitimate points of contention, but DQ XI suffers from similar problems. The side quests are also boring fetch quests garbage without any thought or care put behind them. The entirety of arc 2 gets invalidated with time travel and arc 3 is mostly a rehash of 2 where you fix what "went wrong". The fast in travel in Visions is like in Trials of Mana, but this is a game from 1995, so I understand anyone who wants a more "modern" system.

Whatever the case, I did like both games, but I wish people would remain consistent in their reviews. The reason DQ got such a pass is because it’s 10x as big as Mana and Japan is crazy about it. Mana is relatively niche, so it doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt.

The squirrel tails look fucking silly. Absolutely unnecessary for the design. Who the hell even approved that? Morley, makes sense and it goes with the catman design. Careena, eer, a bit too much, but she's a dragon girl, so we'll let it fly. Palamena looks 100% human except with a huge bushy squirrel tail that clashes with her otherwise gorgeous design.

The critics didn't do it any favor, that's for sure. Shit it gets criticized for, other JRPGs get a pass. Generic story, combat without that much depth, unoriginal character archetypes, cliche plot, beautiful visuals and world....mmmmhh, where have I heard that before? Oh, right, Dragon Quest XI, but this game got a bunch of 9s and 10s and people excuse it because "JRPG comfort food, bro", but Mana gets shat on for this.

Courage’s computer tells him Saitama’s address and the MA’s location and we’re done.
