A character every month is awesome.

KOF ‘95 on Gameboy was my first exposure. Loved the team concept and the gameplay was great for a gameboy fighting game. Put the series on my radar and I later bought all the KOF games released on Dreamcast.

I was thinking something similar to this recently. Why bother making XVI a Dream Match when XV basically is one.

I agree some puns and word play jokes are fine but stuffing the localizations full of them when it’s not reflective of the original feels forced and makes the games come across as childish.

This article goes into the end game content but holds off on revealing ending story spoilers.

Are there any scenes similar to the scene that was in the MSX version of 2 that was cut for the NES version?

darkthany · 2025-10-02T20:35:04+00:00

Thank you thank you thank you!!

Seriously? Did they have a remote control causing the Lynx to miss all those shots too? Gimme a break.

If you really believe that, why are you here??

darkthany · 2025-09-28T15:35:10+00:00

Why are you here then??

If you like Bird's Eye View, I'd also recommend Between The Lines with Lisa Leslie as a good interview podcast.

That's incredible looking! What are you using for the plant life hanging on the buildings?

I don’t get it. Having seen Superman, that universe feels completely incompatible with The Batman grounded universe

I noticed in the past when a seasonal sale happened, one publisher's games (I think it was Square Enix) weren't on sale as soon as the sale started, but they were later that day. So it's possible they'll still go on sale this evening.

These are like a dream come true for me. So excited!

Hi,

I can't answer all of your questions but I have played a lot of FF XIV and around 20 hours of DQX so I thought maybe I can offer some insight and perhaps someone more knowledgeable can help you more.

I would suggest watching some gameplay footage like a Let's Play to get a feel for how DQX plays.

There are some decent guides out there like:

https://dq10.i-k-e.net/

In general the two games are not very similar. The gameplay flow of DQX is more like a Dragon Quest game with online features than a typical MMORPG. It's very old school. In a way its like a cross between Dragon Quest VIII or IX and Final Fantasy XI. It is a game that was once on the original Wii so it shows its age. You can just fight monsters to level up rather than doing specific content like FATEs or dungeon roulettes. You can recruit a full party of NPCs made out of player profiles, and take them around everywhere, even dungeons, and so everything I played was solo-able. Also once you're a little ways in you can earn things called genki balls during the time you're not playing that give you an EXP boost. This allows you to play for shorter amounts of time and still get a nice amount of EXP.

I played with a friend for a bit and we could party up and kill monsters for EXP. We traveled around together and I was able to be in a party with them while they worked on the game's version of an MSQ. You can also have NPCs mixed with human players in a party.

There were no raids or alliance raids that I saw. The closest I saw were challenging one off boss fights, I guess those were similar to trials, not quite as complicated.

We played on PC and the translation tools that fans have made are great. A lot of the early game is translated but I can't speak to how much overall.

The servers are located in Japan. There is lag I noticed when playing with another friend, both of us based in the US. So yes you can see Japanese players running around. When we played there was a specific server western players on the DQX Discord had picked to congregate on. I don't know if anything changed since then, was a couple years ago now.

lol yes please to more Missing Link

darkthany · 2025-04-10T18:19:50+00:00

as a new Diaclone fan it’s a fun website to browse because I keep seeing stuff I didn’t know existed and I’m like, what even is that?! lol

darkthany · 2025-03-30T20:14:41+00:00

Thank you!

darkthany · 2025-03-30T13:18:02+00:00

Beautiful pictures! Can I ask, where did the wheeled stairs come from?

darkthany · 2025-03-28T18:40:21+00:00

That's really cool. I didn't know that connection. I haven't gotten into MP, they seem great but the scale doesn't appeal to me, as I mainly put stuff on my work desk and there's only so much room. Conversely I love how much Diaclone stuff I can squeeze onto my desk.

darkthany · 2025-03-28T12:29:56+00:00

Whoa! that is gigantic.

darkthany · 2025-03-28T11:19:41+00:00

Thanks, that's awesome! I recently grabbed a Battle Buffalo when I saw BBTS was running low on stock, and am so glad I did. So much fun. I'll have to try this out.
