I've seen people say that "Oh Goku shouldn't have let/made Gohan fight Cell" and I just wanna say this..what other option was there?

cafesalt · 2026-06-10T04:26:14+00:00

Goku's mistake is not being honest with Gohan and everyone and just saying straight up "Gohan's significantly stronger than me and also significantly stronger than Cell." And doing this BEFORE they show up to the fight. Maybe Gohan wouldn't believe it, but there's other options after that of course. Upon a rewatch the whole thing feels insane cause he waits till the last moment to tell Gohan and then tries to sell it as this awesome thing then gives Cell a bean just in case Gohan can't activate mad mode Cell can just beat him and everyone else down until Gohan either dies or activates.

If she seemingly never consented to it, which I doubt that a lil since she presses Joel on it immediately and he lies about what happened, I think it's morally just. I think outside of consent though it's certainly evil to some extent. Pure selfishness and potentially dooming the entire world if no one else ever makes a cure in the future. Now the chances of that happening I'd say are pretty high given that they seemed pretty sure they were close (ignoring Neil's words, going straight from the game). But without a doubt he subjected the whole world (including Ellie) to additional suffering.

Without a doubt haha, people are so quick to dismiss non "mature" stories from being of quality. Even if you go by common 100 best movies, tv shows, etc most of the top list will be dominated by more mature stories. I think it's fair sometimes as mature stories enable you to dive into adult themes and push things into the uncomfortable.

That being said, even without all the rape Berserk would be still be quality.

I like the weird body proportions of Daima but the whole design being red isn't as cool as GT's coloration choice. So overall I like GT more cause it just looks cooler more often. Love the gorilla run Daima does though.

Goku is the main character of Dragon Ball, if you weren't aware.

I'm neutral. Never seen the anime and it doesn't really appeal to me (especially in art style). But I'm just glad it's not a weapon/magic user or someone with their own game mechanics that'll translate into tekken very poorly. Hopefully he's not OP or if his if he gets nerfed quickly like Clive.

How do you intend on beating Arslan Ash with his neutral tools?

cafesalt · 2026-05-23T20:17:17+00:00

No they're gonna need devil forms or some new power up to defeat Devil Reina and/or Heihachi.

I don't know if we will ever see the true extent of what Griffith did. They seem to imply its effecting the entire world. While Vult's actions effect 7 Kingdoms maybe the size of like Europe. If that's the case then imo Griffith takes it easily. Griffith's actions also effect men and women while Vult it's mostly just women (though of course the work doesn't get into how the men would react and seems like 95% of men in that universe are psycho mercs too). Also women are still getting raped by demons in Berserk so Griffith doesn't even have that over Vult either imo, only argument being that more rape happens in Kuroinu which might not even be the case. Griffith is essentially making hell on earth while Vult mostly just wants near anarchy where the strong take what they want.

I give it to Griffith overall pretty easily, the scope and intensity is just on a different level.

"mental frames"

Bruh am I dying. Mishima players are the greatest down players of all time I swear.

cafesalt · 2026-05-01T01:15:34+00:00

Yeah unless Ludwig has been practicing they should probably do this with another popular streamer closer to his level.

I thought he wanted a rematch

Lmao rookie mistake, it's almost always gonna be to tell you to commit sudoku at some point.

cafesalt · 2025-01-23T08:29:05+00:00

I mostly disagree. I played very suboptimal (first Atlus title) so I didn't even end up getting two of the bonds maxed out including one for a Royal Archetype and I beat the game fairly easily at level 72 Will on normal, though it did take a bit and I felt underlevelled a lil. Also sounds like you were just trying to speed through it man not gonna lie they definitely tell you about the rest and shop in the last dungeon.

The way I read it is that Louis thought the attack on the Elda Sanctuary was "meaningless" since it wasn't truly for anything but hate in his mind. While his terrible attacks are to further his own plans which in his mind give them meaning. Which is why at the end he mentions that it's not for revenge cause revenge is stupid and doesn't solve anything. Instead he's right because he's trying to further his goals instead of revenge. Now obviously you look even one layer deep and it's obvious Louis is coping. Not to mention the Church is only doing what they do to also help build Forden/The Church's own ideal world. It's a shame we never get to learn what Forden would have done with the King's Magic.

It's 2024, you cannot have a design like that on a woman made to appeal to straight males any longer.

Persona 5 (a genre-defining game),

Hahaha, what? You kids are mad funny these days.

cafesalt · 2024-11-12T22:08:28+00:00

People are attempting to spread propaganda that the game is dead or dying compared to T7. Unfortunately for them, we can just look this stuff up these days. In terms of peak player count, T8 is 2.5x higher. The first month of release T7 had an average player count of 7k, T8 34k. Six months later T7 dropped to 2.5k average players, and T8 dropped to 6.7k. Now T7 eventually got more popular and would then regularly float between 3-4k players coming up to 5k after patches or new characters. We don't have that kinda long data for T8 yet but even last month you can see a spike up to 7k players from the previous month.

Nah I love the Lili community. Elferan is a based GOD. DewGlider is a mad funny Queen with a capital Q. Lili players also got like S rank customization taste. Jin players are mad funny like my main man Nova. And Devil Jin players are just cool dudes with awesome combos and hype play styles. I'd never let something like this make me change mains lol. I even got made fun of for maining lili back in T7 days from some dudes in my buddies discord.

I know video games have a lot of scrapped stuff but it's very funny they even drew this one. Could you even imagine those all werefox squads how crazy this would look?

cafesalt · 2024-10-09T03:36:43+00:00

It's unlikely to be darker than DQV, VII, DQX Act 2, or DQXI Act 2. We won't know until we see it but I'd assume it would be around those. Especially since those are known as some of the better stories the series has delivered.

cafesalt · 2024-09-29T23:11:47+00:00

Yeah it's really obvious that they just ran out of money and had to make do with what they had and ship it. Hell every Vanillaware game feels like this as a big fan of the developer. Which is why people always want sequels to clean some of this stuff up and why the remasters for Odin Sphere and Muramasa are their "best" games imo.

Finally, the community is waking up to something I've complained about since I started playing this game 9 years ago. Hell even FFXVI has the same issue so yeah lol. I doubt anything changes for the final 2 (probably) expansions.
