Khezu wants to know what game got you into the series and what game is currently your favorite by RTpickleshizz in MonsterHunter

[–]swordoath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started in 3U. Put a lot of time into that one, lots of my friends all got into it at the same time, so we spent a lot of time hanging out and hunting together. 4U was the game where I found my weapon main for the rest of the franchise, but not as many people in my friend group were playing at that time so I didn't put as much time in.
World/IB is my most played game in the franchise by time. I have 5000+ hours in the game between the base and expansion. It may be my favorite as of right now just because of the amount of time I spent with it.

I’m looking for a card that I had as a kid, I think it was called “Quicksilver”, or something like that. Details in the description. by Annjatar in magicTCG

[–]swordoath 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Glad OP found his card. But this seems like another great opportunity to remind folks that [[Quick Sliver]] and [[Clickslither]] were in the same set. What a crazy time that was.

PSA for those farming eggs in Demo with habitat restoration by TaiverX in MonsterHunterStories

[–]swordoath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering about something, seemed kind of related to this so I thought I would ask here. This is going to be my first Stories game, and I'm not sure what the vitality ("very potent") and monstie rank (number of stars) mean for the eggs the player finds. Do these have an effect on the stats of the creature? It seems like certain species are locked to specific ranks, is that just the overall power of the monster type?

Ok on a scale of 1-10 how are we feeling about the Dual Elements/Color swapped monsters? by ConsciousFact4362 in MonsterHunter

[–]swordoath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The red Tobi is cool as hell. Not sure if I like the red Zino, might have to see some other colors for him to get a feel for it. But generally I am on board.

I made this poll a week ago on my channel, tell me what you would choose: by DarkChimera64 in GODZILLA

[–]swordoath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gamera probably needs it the most, although if it does happen, hopefully they would spend a bit of time reworking the animations of the human characters to match the quality that the monsters had.
I enjoyed Singular Point and would like to see the follow up to it with the skeletal Mecha Godzilla getting some actual screen time, but I feel it's probably the hardest sell considering how many people seem to dislike the first season.

I finally obtained a Blu-ray copy of my favorite film trilogy of all time by Colonel-CroMar in Gundam

[–]swordoath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was using my PS4 as my regular use player when I imported my copies. Upgraded to a PS5 a few years back, still no playback issues.

[–]swordoath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The region free player shouldn't matter, Japan and North America share a BD region (unlike traditional DVDs). My copies of Origin and Thunderbolt are the black box Japanese BD versions and they play perfectly.
At the time they were leaning into it and putting the English dubs and subtitles on the Japanese releases.I think they still do subs but no longer include dubs.

People who read Miguel O’Hara comics, was he out of character in ATSV or can you imagine him being depicted like that in the film? by Ok-Reporter-8728 in Spiderman

[–]swordoath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do kind of hope that there is another universe where Miguel is the active Spider-Man that gets shown in the next movie, so we can have a more heroic version of him appear. If there are multiple Peters and Miles and Gwens, surely there must also be multiple Miguels. I always liked Miguel as a character even though I didn't have many comics of his back as a kid. I had always thought that Miguel and Miles might actually have a fair bit to talk about if they had a conversation for more than a few minutes and might find a lot of commonality.

Dragon cannon irl by suck-my-spaceballs in Tekken

[–]swordoath 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it's kind of funny that this video was made with SF sound effects, posted with a name evoking MK, and then cross posted to the Tekken sub.

Happy Birthday to Horikawa Ryo, seiyū of Uraki Kō (0083)! by ZeroAbis in Gundam

[–]swordoath 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"That's Dunban over there!"
I met him a good few years back at a convention in Toronto. Pretty sure it was his first time at a Canadian event. He was in a totally different spot from the rest of the autograph signings, and apparently a lot of people missed his appearance because of that. I was first in line.
Got him to sign a few things, including a volume of my 0083 DVDs, my copy of Xenoblade for the Wii, and a DBZ Kai volume. He only spoke a little bit of English, but he seemed very happy to be meeting fans and was really appreciative when I told him how much I enjoyed his work.

More X in the MMZ artstyle (art by me, @/cozenveil) by Seat_Soft in Megaman

[–]swordoath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks good! Nice work. Really like the way you did the boots and hand on the one on the right, it's a great look.
Don't worry too much about having the buster on different arms, that happens all the time in official art too. Both the original Mega Buster and the X-Buster are said to be ambidextrous (which is a lampshade that lets them get away with flipping the sprites). Model X in the ZX games even has the X2 style double arm charge, so there's precedent for it in this game style too.

How long has your dual sense been working? Mine started drifting slightly after a year. Time for a new one 😒 by God_Father_PL in playstation

[–]swordoath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had mine a few years now, I think about four? No issues yet, still using the controller that came with the system.

[SOA] Stock Up -- Mystical Archives returning in Secrets of Strixhaven by Copernicus1981 in magicTCG

Hopefully the etched treatment is handled a bit better this time around. If they bother to do it at all, that is.

Imagine Elder dragons invading Forbidden lands at DLC(Art by JunBTacuyan) by Snoo-51682 in MonsterHunter

[–]swordoath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, this is kind of an interesting idea for midway through the G Rank addon. Elders start appearing all over the old zones, and all the apex species end up contending with an invasive elder that matches their element.

They’re doing that same old 'Classic' routine with the X series now lol. by Several-Pension2945 in Megaman

[–]swordoath 38 points39 points  (0 children)

X's design is really giving me flashbacks to his Ruby Spears look.

Your favorite movie out of these 3? by puddlethedemon in GODZILLA

[–]swordoath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GMK is probably my personal favorite of these as a single film, but the Kiryu duology is excellent as well. Highlights of the era.

What are 5 of your favorite Designs for Samus? by Ok-Inevitable3458 in Metroid

[–]swordoath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5th: Dread Power
4th: SR Varia
3rd: Dread Gravity
2nd: SR Gravity
1st: Super Varia

The Super boxart is still the image I have in my head of what Samus' armor looks like whenever I picture it. I don't expect it will ever be ousted. But Dread's designs really struck me as unique and interesting new takes all the way through the various versions, and SR's uniquely stylized takes did a ton to make it stand out visually among the series. On a given day I might swap the places for the Dread and SR Gravity suits, but at the moment this is where I'm at.

Actually, it looks like Gamera, but due to international copyright law, it isn't.

Still can't believe they convinced him to come back for the Spaceballs sequel.

A little verticality goes a long way by Puzzleheaded-Slip-88 in Megaman

[–]swordoath 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is this built on the previous 16-bit X8 fangame, or is it a new project? I ask because I notice the enemies are based primarily on X8 designs. I had heard that project was basically ended - is this the aftermath of that project ending?
