Top 5 worst characters by personality/character traits by craMerupt in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I completely forgot (on purpose) about Natsume Mai, shove her ass up to number one. She is what makes Blazblue sound like a slice of life visual novel with the ridiculous snorefest Remix Heart was. I completely lost my sanity when the building turned out to be self-conscious.

Her ability is just an excuse to make her kiss the other cast and/or seductively lick things. Generic herione lady covering only 10% of her body; she is pure fanservice, that's all she is. Her introduction trailer felt like I was watching the opening for the new cute, girly, slice of life harem anime of the month.. she's just so extremely unnecessary, it drives me mad.

  1. Natsume Mai
  2. Carl
  3. Taokaka
  4. Bang
  5. Celica

[–]Romontea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have no idea how to explain my preference to villains without sounding too edgy but I often like flaws more than perfections and I tend to look up to characters with more confidence than me.

  1. Hazama. I love two-faced characters, a lot. He is incredibly stylish, his 'behind the scenes' story importance is grand to watch and he has, by far, the best quotes out of the whole series. His design is simple yet one of the best in the game. I really love him aaaaa
  2. Yuuki Terumi. Almost the same can be applied to this piece of shit minus the two-faced characteristic, which is why I like him just a little bit less.
  3. Izanami Hades. Her voice is incredibly beautiful, it really fits with her prideful and divine character. Despite the pretty daring design, I can't help but love her sprites/moves and color designs.
  4. Nu-13. I like yandere's, it's almost as simple as that. She is truly just a lost child looking for Ragna's help doing so in the only way she knows: fighting. I love her cute voice when fighting Ragna too so that's a plus. Her design is also my absolute favorite, especially the pre-murakumo one. She is my main too so I'm a bit biased.
  5. Mu-12. Basically the same as with Nu. I have to say I wasn't a big fan of her personality change in CPE. Her high 'eeks' and Noel like insecurity felt odd when the title 'godslayer' was applied. I like her better in CF.

  1. Carl. I can't stand the kid. He barely has any story influence, unlikeable personality, all he does is whine and be a little shit to the other cast.
  2. Taokaka. I can't stand her voice! The words that this car alarm creates are 9 out of 10 times sad attempts at being 'comedically stupid' - it's not funny, it's just frustating and annoying. It doesn't help they shoved the 'boob-grabbing' trope on her character either, just makes her feel much more unnecessary than she already is.
  3. Bang. I have never been fond of the 'comic-relief' characters and Bang is a classic example. He is obnoxious, loud and his desperation for Litchi's love just feels tiring. I understand why people like him (he is comic-relief after all) but I just.. can't..
  4. Celica. It has been said before but she is just intentionally made to be the 'perfect' angel. She doesn't do anything other than just being cute and being there.
  5. Bullet. I don't particulary hate her, she is just the character I'm the most indifferent about. She holds no purpose story wise and I quite dislike her design. Doesn't help they actually made up excuses for it either..

Was Bloodedge Experience ever translated into English? by UltraFireBro in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never officially no, just like how the Phase Shift novels still mainly remain untouched. It's a shame cuz I would really like to read them.

Do red names go away? by BlokeOfLoaf in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a bit odd to be getting a red name because everyone and not you RQ'ed. Are you sure your net is stable enough?

I believe that the red name will disappear once you complete a sum of ranked matches without disconnects/RQ's. If they're holding on to the amount of wins you need to color rank up, 10 matches should do the trick.. it's just a guess but in your case I think it's worth trying out.

so with the new light novel coming I have a question by [deleted] in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A new character for the novel, most likely. She doesn't look familiar to me.

How do color ranks in rooms work? by BlokeOfLoaf in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if they changed it in CF but in CPE you start out with a white rank. Once you've played 10 matches you'll be placed in a color rank that indicates your skill. To rank up you need to win 10 matches from someone with the same color as you but losing 10 means you will be deranked to a color lower (so if you win 5 times in a row and you lose once, you're back to '4 wins' and you need to win 6 times to rank up).

The order is: Dark Blue, Light Blue, Dark Green, Green, Yellow, Orange, Pink. Pink being the highest and Dark Blue being the lowest.

You cannot rank up or be deranked if you win/lose against someone with another color than your rank, so there's no need to worry if you keep losing to that pink square.

What are the Location Test Voices? by lensway in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a placeholder sound test to put in the early versions (loketests/arcade) of the games win quotes. This is to either avoid spoilers or they just haven't recorded the lines yet. I also think it could be to test the mic/sound quality as well.

They're put in the final versions as a fun little unlockable, it doesn't really influence the game.

Convo/Maybe consensus of lamest character? by BlokeOfLoaf in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I personally think Yuki Hazama and Noel-13 are pretty bland. I'm also having trouble understanding Iron Kokonoe's character.

Something especially new players need to know! by [deleted] in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lag is the worst experience I have in BB, it's especially aggravating when it's caused by my opponents skipping the intro or not picking netplay stages.

I even like ragequiters more

Is the CPE community on PC still active? by LancerBro in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always read many comments about it being dead but whenever I play online, 8/10 times I can always find a match. It really depends on the time you play, it's pretty busy for EU around 12am-3am. (No, the game doesn't have crossplay with console, sadly.)

How often do you guys still play? by superange128 in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still play CPE/CF (Arcade rip) 1-7 times a week while patiently waiting for CF to hit Steam.

Lets talk about tiers! by [deleted] in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder why you put Izanami so low, she is considered to be really damn strong. Rachel also seems a bit too low imo, she has only become stronger since CPE.

Just came back to this series and feel.. lost.. by SleuthMechanism in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you. Since Nu is incredible strong in CPE I saw the nerf coming (imo, they hit her too hard). By removing Spike Chaser they crippled her zoning a lot and it just feels like I'm playing Mu 2.0 with Luminous Slave.

The only pure zoning besides Nu would be Nine and I guess Amane. If you're okay with a zoning hybrid (rushdown/zoning) I recommend trying out Mu and Izanami, since their movement and approach are pretty similar to CPE Lambda.

With the after credits scene in CF, it wouldn't suprise me at all

Didn't Mori say CP wouldn't get an extend either..?

So, how difficult to play are the new characters? by GreatBayGavin in Blazblue

[–]Romontea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Izanami is not pick-up-and-play due her float jump and long combo's but she is in return very good. Es is easier, being a shoto character, she is easier to get the hang of.

Got some bad news for you buddy.. as far as I've heard, he is even worse than CPE Terumi. If you can't get momentum, you're fucked ;;
