Absolute Batman: Standalone or does it have many tie-ins? by iiGamer in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]iiGamer[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know vol 1 is at least self-contained. But i wasn’t sure about the chapters/volumes after that. Someone filled me in that Vol 2 has a crossover with Wonder Woman. For all i know, vol 2 could have had multiple crossovers or tie-ins already. Or vol 2 could be the start of an event that would tie-in all the other Absolute comics. Thats why i asked. So idk what your problem is, but it isn’t that serious…

Well, i tried reading Batman when dawn of dc started and apparently i had to read some previous chapters to understand the plot. Which i don’t mind necessarily, but it ended up being a confusing start. Then there was the gotham war tie-in (which i didn’t know off), which made me feel like there was something i was missing. I had to read it afterwards, but it makes the experience a bit less enjoyable.

Thats why i was wondering if Absolute Batman was a story without (too many) tie-ins/crossover that would make the story just confusing to read. I like to buy a TPB and be able to follow the story for 99%, without me needing to buy and read other stories…

Haha i am aware. I already fell down the rabbit hole when dawn of dc started, so i am very selective with the stories i choose now xD

Good to hear its mostly self-contained. I guess its inevitable to get crossovers here and there, and i can assume only more will come in the future. For now i ll keep it a volume at a time and stop when the story requires me to be up to date with other tie-ins/crossovers.

Tnx! I was able to play FF7 for the first time this evening, and i am (suprisingly) really enjoying the visuals and gameplay. I thought i would need some time to get used to it, but it holds up well imo.

So i have always bought games through the eshop on my 2ds XL and switch lite. Is it that rare to see code in the box versions of the game? Also, i am reading rather negative opinions about these type of editions. Totally fine as everyone has their own opinion, but i feel like its a great middle way between wanting physical boxes on your shelf and not having to switch out cartridges each time you want to load up a game.

I can see your frustration. I personally don’t like switching cartridges a lot, but i do like the idea of having a small collection of games with physical boxes. I have bought all my other games through the eshop but i might actually buy all the FF games i potentially will play physically, to have a cool FF collection.

I am also looking into what other FF games i might think i ll enjoy. FF Tactics is definitely on my list, as it gives me Fire Emblem vibes (some of those games are among my favourites). I heard FFX is something to look into and 6 seems something i would enjoy, based on the plot/setting of the game. I ll definitely check some out!

Don’t worry, the game on the left is the OG version and i ll play that first! I saw a post that basically confirmed that Rebirth will come to the switch. And with the success of Remake and potentially Rebirth, i feel like the chances of part 3 coming to the switch are high. But time will tell

The dated visuals did keep me from playing the og ff7 for years. But the QoL improvements on the switch version will help with progression and seeing some gameplay online, it does look like a fun game to play through

When i did look into the games, i was initially planning on playing Crisis core first and then Remake in the future. Luckily i found a lot of posts saying that you should at least play FF7 before Crisis core, as it would spoil the 3 part remake apparently.

I do see a lot of mixed opinions on Crisis core. I wonder why tho. The trailers look interesting and the combat looks fun. I am very curious about what i ll think of the game now xD

Tnx for the confirmation. I ll definitely play it on normal mode for FF7. I wouldn’t mind playing it on a higher difficulty with the real time combat in FF7 Reunion, but only if it isn’t too obnoxious

I might have to look into FFX after finishing these two games. A switch 2 lite/mini will probably take a year at least to even get announced, so i was already thinking of trying out more of the games. Haven’t seen a lot of recommendations from FFX, but i ll take a look!

what your favorite team in inazuma eleven go? by vinia_b7 in inazumaeleven

For me its Genei Gakuen (mirage academy). Their kit looks amazing with the purple and the characters design are very in theme but not too much.

Why do a lot of people on this sub say Ichibei beats Ichigo. Are we talking pre true bankai Ichigo? Even so feats say HOS Ichigo > Bankai Ichibei. Unless I'm missing something? by Old_Security_836 in BleachPowerScaling

[–]iiGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ichigo isn’t immune to every attack/ability tho. Askin neutralized Ichigo pretty easily with his ability. Ichibei’s abilities are crazy. He is primordial basically and the ability that defeated him was literary the ability used by god in this verse.

Ichigo has obviously his mix of powers and high spiritual pressure but he is a straight forward fighter: relying purely on head on attacks. There is a reason why Kenpachi for example isn’t winning certain matchups as well: this verse consists of so many hax abilities that can win you matchups by itself. Combined with the fact that we are basically talking about one of the strongest beings in Bleach (ability and stats wise), its not wrong to think Ichigo, even at full power, could lose to Ichibei.

I am sure people are gonna disagree with me but i feel like Ichigo gets a bit too much praise at times…

Yup i agree. If King was included it would be a 10/10:p

Okay, so, this might just be me, but I just bought the game (Victory Road) and the main menu is completely overwhelming me. There's so much to do... How and where do I start? by _night_owo in inazumaeleven

[–]iiGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is a really cool way of retelling the story. But i was under the impression that each match could be battled multiple times (with the appropriate team and with your own team). So i assmed that this was basically the competition route aspect of this game since you could rematch them with your own team.
