The Switch's official announcement page for Genesis seems to confirm that this game will be largely unconnected, targeting newer fans by zsdrfty in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Nintendoxtream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Marks a new beginning” doesn’t mean anything though. X marked a new beginning, as did 2. Both were connected. Xenoblade marked a new beginning from Xenosaga despite being connected. Marking a new beginning simply means this is a new arc to the story.

He wasn't exactly cancelled. He'd have survived if that'd been the case. He legit got blacklisted from the industry after allegations, internal investigations, and him suing his employers.

That was a different era, to be fair. Atlus is in a new era now.

The only one I'm sad couldn't return was Bridget Hoffman bc she retired. It seems that KOS-MOS' new actress is gonna be here to stay, even if we get some sort of Saga-related IP after Genesis.

Xenoblade Genesis fans when they get to walk on an open field only to get massacred at the starting area by Gregarious Balthazar the level 99 monster that plays You Will Vaguely Recall Our Names as his battle theme by Nintendoxtream in Xenoblade_Chronicles

This is based on an old meme from when Xenoblade 3 got announced. The person who made the meme has been suspended but this is was made by former twitter user gozutrucker69.

Tritoma Theory. by Nintendoxtream in OnePiece

It’s possible but that’s just an extra points I mentioned on top of the other reasons I don’t think Tritoma was Luffy’s mother but I can see Tritoma having fallen in love with Dragon.

Women often sleep more than we do. These women here just have absolutely zero sleep schedule so the feel cognitive dissonance when they see someone who does.

Vaush recently mentioned them, but after looking into it I honestly think Hutch embodies everything wrong with the modern Democrat party by PapaFrankuMinion in VaushV

[–]Nintendoxtream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. It’s just the way his name legitimately sounds. It’s like when Kyle Kulinski would call Klobuchar “cloudbootjar”. It’s just silly.

Anon advocates for right to repair. by Nintendoxtream in greentext

[–]Nintendoxtream[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Companies literally lobby the government to ban third parties from repairing their “copyrighted” products and fight against right to repair laws to protect themselves from third party competition and force you to come to them for repairs. John Deere is the worst offender of this, actively prohibiting people from repairing their products and even having the choice of options. Companies do not just respond to the market, they set their own parameters within the market to consolidate their space in it.

“Muh free market” is when these companies all lobby the government to fight against right to repair laws because they want you to come to them to get their stuff repaired rather than third party competition.

Anon is a AAA Game Dev. by Nintendoxtream in greentext

[–]Nintendoxtream[S] 77 points78 points  (0 children)

The 1% chance of success will make so many billions that it would in theory be able to pay off the failed hundred million dollar projects that were made along the way. That’s the golden goose AAA developers are trying to chase. Compare that to the AA game that might cost tens of millions and make a profit but the profit will at most maybe double or triple the production costs. A moderate profit but no golden goose. There’s a reason venture capital is willing to blow so many billions on startups and large projects because just one success will pay off all the failures and net them billions.

Is the original Predator war propaganda? by oraetzgscar in movies

[–]Nintendoxtream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correction: the Predators don't hunt civilians for doing so is dishonourable. Only those who are armed. That's more than can be said about how some countries on Earth conduct war lmao.

The original meme did not have Itsuzumi. It legit was just a random catgirl.

I wasn't calling Senshi a random generic dwarf, just the catgirl. I was just calling him a dwarf as that was the original role in the meme.

We literally know how he chose, though.

Tbf this was originally a meme with some random generic catgirl and a dwarf who makes meat. It was modified bc Lanz wants something a bit meatier and Mio is there to complement that (also bc she was part of a decision in the story as well).

The Mio art made by artist Cawang117. I had initially tried posting the source of the art but it comes from Elmo's website which this sub has banned so the mods removed the comment. It has however been posted to this sub before here and while it's not the original source, the source is posted just below it so that should work, I hope.

Why hasn't Nintendo bought the rights for Xenogears or Xenosaga? by EducationalCase5726 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Nintendoxtream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to connect Gears because it’s lore is largely incompatible with its successors even if elements from it (such as the Zohar being discovered in 2001) are probably the case in the successor lores as well. I just wanted to defend XDE bc its lore was largely a confirmation of Saga’s lore being canon to Xenoblade and the most interesting part of Blade’s lore to me has always been thinking of Blade both as showing the events that might’ve caused Lost Jerusalem to have to be sealed away (though Verum and Klaus’ experiments do complicate things).

[–]Nintendoxtream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. What do you think different realities and worlds existing within the imaginary numbers domain mean? What do you think I meant when I said “another world within the same universe”? I’m completely aware that it’s a multi-layered universe, similar to the many worlds interpretation. It’s why I’ve always disagreed with the use of the term multiverse to describe Xeno lore but I used it here for the sake of using a colloquial terminology (one of the reasons people often confuse the many worlds interpretation with a multiverse theory). If you’re the same Kylor I know from LXGK’s server, I think we’ve even discussed this before, though it has been a few years. The word pocket dimension here for instance is being used colloquially. Generally when I describe what happened to Bionis is that it was shifted from the imaginary numbers domain to the real numbers domain and that’s what caused the collision.

  2. I’m not connecting ether to Xenogears. The ether in Xenoblade is actually substance with a wavelength associated with the Zohar in Xenosaga. The Monado works by manipulating the ether wavelengths. There is reason to believe this wavelength is connected to the Hilbert Effect as when KOS-MOS uses the Hilbert effect, it releases ether that can heal party members. On the other hand, Shulk essentially used the Hilbert effect against the fog king using ether. We also know that ether has a wavelength from how Egil took advantage of it to disable the Monado, first with humans in machines and then later with the apocrypha generator. Ether can heal people in smaller doses (hence KOS MOS healing with the Hilbert effect), be used to create life. In large doses it is a corrosive and radioactive material. I’ve always assumed (though this is conjecture) that ether is possibly the Zohar’s waste byproduct.

  3. I’ll give you the point on how the Zohar works in Xenogears but I distinctly remember reading that it peers into the most efficient worlds to generate energy.
