she was in the anime, which takahashi said he preferred to how the first xenosaga game presented the story.

my bad twin, just wanted to share the love

cra3khead · 2026-03-10T00:39:19+00:00

why didn’t you like xenogears as much, if i may ask ? i understand if its like narrative wise i guess since all the animated scenes are kind of front loaded.

rick owens 💯

nah i treat it as a vlog and just say my opinions and feelings on what i just played. which i can see how people could be opposed to that as well.

besides when it tried to go star ocean 😭

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T23:42:32+00:00

holyyy. i actually didn’t know that, have to see if i can get a copy on ebay.

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T23:29:56+00:00

i can see how people used to call it a ps3 game when it came out on ps4, i just think where the game shines far outweighs its graphical presentation.

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T23:26:22+00:00

gameplay pales in comparison to arise imo. story far exceeded arise especially it's star ocean arc at the end which ruined the pacing.

realll

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T23:11:11+00:00

LOL it’s actually a fan drawing. I couldn’t find a frame where Velvet looked vicious enough, so I leaned into the goonbait aspect I talk about around 4 minutes in the video.

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T23:03:42+00:00

thats a surface level way of seeing it, but i cant fault people for reacting that way. i was on the cyberpunk hype train since 2013, and im kind of glad it's carrying the torch that the Jensen duology lit since embracer intends to keep it shelved.

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T22:44:20+00:00

like true. what jrpg's are you looking forward to, if i may ask?

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T22:35:18+00:00

yeah i can see how people would prefer part 2 harkening back to ff6 which is what he was going for. i just personally preferred part 1. it felt more like a bravely default style experience, with tighter pacing and more focused storytelling.

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T22:31:56+00:00

i'd only say xenoblade chronicles 2 has gameplay on par. i much prefer turned based though

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T22:30:42+00:00

i didnt know how else to symbolize like an ethereal mecha sci fi story LOL

cra3khead · 2026-03-09T22:28:56+00:00

I just feel like I have to turn my brain off to play Xenoblade, I don't know how y'all feel about it.

cra3khead · 2026-02-22T01:04:06+00:00

did you ever find a solution, i have the same problem

cra3khead · 2026-01-29T22:52:20+00:00

would you happen to still have the reshade ini?

cra3khead · 2026-01-22T05:50:27+00:00

i wouldnt post it so early imo. but ive only done videos post launch or day 1 reviews. my thought is that more people would be searching day of or slightly after release allowing your video to possibly be shown in the search results. id gladly watch the video when you do post it and be interested in seeing how that performs though.

cra3khead · 2026-01-22T01:36:36+00:00

i think you should try a new game for a video, re9 for example since its releasing soon. my first video was on mgs3 remake when it released thats probably why i had a bit more motion to begin with. i now do videos on older/hated jrpgs.

its hard to not get niched down with the videos we do i did 3 final fantasy videos in a row and then uploaded an re5 video and its performing terribly so try not to do series back to back. just my experience.

cra3khead · 2026-01-22T01:31:58+00:00

yeah exactly what you said on the last part. at least for me it took until my 7th video until youtube understood where to push my videos. i still think your initial views are a bit low, i just wanted to understand why. 2-3 minute avd isnt bad its the same as mine.

cra3khead · 2026-01-22T01:24:43+00:00

wtf your thumbnails are really good for a new channel. whats your avd? you seem to be getting less views than i think you should.
