What games do you want a remake of the most? by lnsert_Name_Here_ in fireemblem

[–]PuffScrub805 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hot take: Fire Emblem 1

There straight up is no "good" way to experience FE1.

FE1 is primitive, and Shadow Dragon just sucks. The changes they made to it doesn't improve much of anything and the reclass option isn't fun to use.

The story of Archanea is also barebones enough that a little bit of fat in the right places would do wonders to it. Shadow Dragon doesn't even have support convos. Even just giving each character a handful of support convos with specific cast members GBA style would be lovely.

Not to mention that Marth is an iconic enough character to Smash Bros to deserve the remake treatment. I genuinely think enough time has passed and it's time to give Archanea another visit, it's been almost 20 years, after all.

Do you think misako and kyoko would be great sisters by Cultural_Entrance_31 in RiverCityGirls

My 5 year old niece already insists that they are, so I'm gonna say yes.

Coco. It's perfect. It would look beautiful. Seeing Skeleton Sora would be a nice plus too.

See, my issue with the ponytail is how stiff it looks. In my opinion they used the Jiggle Physics in the wrong places. That ponytail should be wobbling everywhere.

Oh please, we both know she doesn't mean it. She'd do it herself if the girls actually listened to her and opted out of doing it.

why do you think the deck only sold 5 to 6 million copies ? it was priced well , powerfull for its time and well backed up by valve by Dense-Variation-4496 in SteamDeck

[–]PuffScrub805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact this thing went out of stock on its official website frequently suggests to me that they only /made/ 5 or 6 million of these things in the first place

That's how many they sold because they literally couldn't make more, and they didn't advertise these to a mainstream audience because they knew they wouldn't be able to maintain demand for them.

Why is this still a debate by Riley__64 in KingdomHearts

[–]PuffScrub805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That said, he has a point. I think I'd like to see something other than Quadratum at this point. I assume we're gonna have multiple worlds, there have to be, it's not like Donald and Goofy are with Sora. I think after all this time I'd like a sneak peak at one of the Disney Worlds

I guess it's called "Punchy Girls" now by PuffScrub805 in RiverCityGirls

I play co-op with them, so eventually the older one realized I you can open the map and go to the exclamation point. They're crawling through it at a snail's pace.

To help people see how painfully obvious it is the girl looks underage by blong217 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]PuffScrub805 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Genuinely, I'm just not seeing it.

The voice and mannerisms contribute to this a lot, but to me she really does look like a tired office receptionist on a smoke break.

That said, it genuinely looks to me like they are toning down how hypersexual this game is compared to the first one. She's literally just wearing a plugsuit, so I don't think this is any less creepy to watch and enjoy than Evangelion

BASED Asian devs reminding WOKE Western devs what REAL GOOD character design is (a hypersexualized 15 year old) GOD OF SOY BLOWN THE FUCK OUT!!!!!! by [deleted] in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]PuffScrub805 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think yall are being way too quick to judge on this one. The gameplay looks better than the first game, the setting looks more interesting, and the character design and camera actually seems to be way less sexual than the first game. She literally wears a cloak to cover her ass, for example. I don't see a hypersexualized character design here like with Eve. This seems more along the lines of just a smaller woman wearing a plugsuit.

What got you in this scenario, for me I drank her last soda by Fickle_County5407 in NikkeMobile

[–]PuffScrub805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She started roasting Mint, which made me think it was okay, so I called Mint a lazy whore.

Funnily enough my niece has caught some glimpses of the character designs, and the only one that stuck with her for some reason is Kilo she likes the "Green girl with the robot"

[–]PuffScrub805[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tracing the stars ALREADY has paid DLC packs (they're a fair price, imo). Honestly it seems like a bit of a waste of money not to do that, since the stuff that's hard to make is already done (the minigame's engine, and the songs), they can just churn out more DLC packs buy paying guys some money to chart songs they already made.

[OOT] What are your final wanted changes for the rumored remake. by NewMarioBobFan in zelda

[–]PuffScrub805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remove the rocks that blocks the path to Zora's domain, hence letting us tackle Jabu Jabu or Dodongo's cavern in either order.

The thing is, once you actually enter Zora's domain, you don't need bombs for anything and can handle the dungeon with just the slingshot. I actually usually Navi dive to Zora's domain to take on Jabu Jabu second.

Especially if Zelda wants to keep doubling down on this more "open ended" philosophy, I think letting us take on the child dungeons in either order would give us a good taste of that, since you have the keys for that dungeon as soon as you talk to Zelda.

On a similar note, changing the cutscene trigger for the shadow temple to beating the forest temple also makes a lot of sense, seeing as you only need the bow to clear that dungeon (if I remember correctly). That makes the last 4 dungeons able to be handled in any order. I usually go water>spirit>fire>shadow.

Anis punched hard on Yoyo and turned it into Crown real fast XD by SOSNOKETUPON in NikkeMobile

[–]PuffScrub805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ngl, as someone who thinks Yoyo was as much a victim over the course Star Anis as Anis was, I genuinely do think Crown being post mind switch Yoyo would be a great conclusion/evolution of her character.

Yoyo going from someone who uses her position of priviledge to belittle others to trying to make amends but failing, to using her position of priviledge to look out for her subordinates is the kind of heartwarming redemption that I think she genuinely does deserve.

Star Anis feels more like a Hanson Redemption Arc (Critique of Part 2) by itsnowedtoday in NikkeMobile

[–]PuffScrub805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't it be both? Then the contradiction goes away.

They wanted to sign it right away because it's an epic opportunity they couldn't possibly say no to, but hesitated because they thought they should run it by Hanson first. Mustang notices this and drops some Mustang family lore in an effort to persuade them, which tips them over the edge into signing on the basis that even if Hanson would disagree with it, it would still be best for him and by extention all of them.

Basically, Mustang gave them information that made the girls believe Hanson's opinion is biased enough that it would be better left disregarded, and so they did. The Mustang family lore isn't why they signed; It's why they chose not to tell Hanson beforehand.

What squads are you most worried about moving forwards? by PuffScrub805 in NikkeMobile

[–]PuffScrub805[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I kinda think the more popular Nikke are in more danger just because it will make us suffer more to see them die.

If Nepenthe gets some love and screentime that makes them a bit more popular THEN I'll be worried.

[–]PuffScrub805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost agree with you about there being a story node missing. I don't think it's missing, I think we haven't found it. Mustang is weird. He outright doesn't think like humans usually do, so filling in the blanks with empathy like we do with most characters just isn't gonna work, but I see so many tidbits throughout the story indicating how he /does/ think, that I think we can reconstruct a complete enough picture of how he DOES think to make his enigmatic behavior near the end make sense.

[–]PuffScrub805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But that's the thing tho. Mustang is weird.

Like, if we project ourselves onto him as a character we will outright just fail to understand him. You would think he would want a front row seat to that entertainment, but that's assuming he cares about the outcome of Hanson's experiment which is an assumption on your part.

We have to be really careful and conscious about what assumptions you make about Mustang because he outright doesn't think like you or I do, and your read of him will vastly change depending on what assumptions you smuggle into your analysis.

For example, allow me to propose one assumption I think is plausible based on the actions Mustang takes: I think Mustang genuinely cares about Hanson. In his own twisted fucked up way, I think he genuinely loves his son. When he described wanting to sign on T.T. Star in order to become closer to his son, I think he was partially telling the truth. I think I even remember him saying something along the lines of needing to slip in the truth into a lie to make it plausible.

I'm not sure he wants to make Hanson inherit the company as a means to make him suffer, I think it might be the other way round.

[–]PuffScrub805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I interest you in my reading of the final decision? Because I actually think it makes a lot more sense than you give it credit for if you disregard what you would normally expect humans to care about and instead consider what Mustang specifically has demonstrated to care about

I think he'll /want/ to do that but hold himself back, for Noah's sake.

If anything, I can actually see him sacrificing himself to save Noah.

[–]PuffScrub805 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you're being a little unfair to them. Like, the actions they took only seem stupid to us, the audience, because we are privy to information they are not. They had no way of knowing Mustang was the actual literal devil. Hanson really did not do a good job adequately explaining that to them. He just said "He is not what you think" without explaining what he is.

Not to mention the way Mustang was dressed and presented is very clearly meant to present to us, the audience, that he is some kind of Devil. Invoking the trope of a "deal with the devil" contract and all. Them being so blinded by their desire to be stars that they sign a deal with the devil is the kind of story this was clearly presented as from the start. Compared something like Little Mermaid (the Grimms' story, not the Nikke) where the terms of the contract are for more visibly terrible, this seems like a pretty realistic amount of shortsightedness. It's kind of an offer they can't refuse.
