I don't know if it's Bandai or Koei's fault, but someone needs to be hired who can actually come up with names for moves.

RE: Official Egghead Thread
@Shiebs No, we just know he is a prince. He may not even be the heir to the king.

RE: Chapter 1111: Sun-Shield
@electricmastro Loki, in the original Norse myths, was actually a Jotnar who lived among the Aesir. Although he was Odin's sworn brother (not his adopted son as Marvel does), he was kind of what TV Tropes calls "the friend nobody likes".
Of course, as he was fated to become the leader of the Jotnar and Unvaliant Dead in Ragnarok doesn't help things, either.

RE: Chapter 1111: Sun-Shield
@Shiebs He is at least a prince. I wager he's probably not the heir if he was going to be married to the so-called evil spirit's child.

RE: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
@Time-Control-Magician The original, naturally. It's not a perfect 1:1, but a lot of character parallels.
Vaan = Luke
Balthier = Han
Fran = Chewbacca
Basch = Obi-Wan
Ashe = Leia
Halim = Lando
Vayne = Palpatine
Gabranth = Vader
Ba'Gamnan = Boba -
RE: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
XIII was also my least favorite FF. Nothing about the aesthetic or setting did anything for me.
Though I did love XII basically being Star Wars in a high fantasy setting.

RE: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Controversial opinion: I prefer IX to VII, so hearing that makes me happy.

RE: One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 (Switch, PS4, XBox One, PC; 2020)
I will say that I do like this Garp moveset more then the one from 2/3. Maybe in 5 they can add the moves from the fight with Kuzan, as well.

RE: General Video Game Discussion
I'd rather have Muscle Bomber/Saturday Night Slam Masters back first.

RE: Western Comics thread
@Shiebs Because at least now he's not a walking stereotype with the Shillelagh.
-
RE: Western Comics thread
I think the DCAU handled the Joker best. Trying to turn fish into his one likeness was one thing, but after what he did to Tim, his ass had to go.

Ah, and speaking of DLC:

RE: Chapter 1109: Interception
@Deicide The big "if" there is Ju Peter, since he is the youngest looking one. Because if he looked the same around God Valley, then something definitely is up.
-
RE: EA SUCKS but so does Bioware Thread
It would be nice to learn something about it. More of the setting, the main character....anything, really.
-
RE: Chapter 1109: Interception
Also, it seems like magic because there's been no explanation on what it is yet. It is more likely some ancient super science from the Great Kingdom that Imu has hidden away.
-
RE: Chapter 1109: Interception
I said in the spoiler thread, but I believe the Gorosei's powers are similar to a Lich and it's phylactery from Dungeons and Dragons/Pathfinder. They can heal from any injury and don't age, because their souls are outside of their bodies, perfectly preserved. And I believe if their vessels were destroyed, they would die instantly.

RE: Official Egghead Thread
@Shiebs Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't feel Saturn is that strong, so much as he has all these gimmicks and tricks.
-
RE: Chapter 1109: Interception
@electricmastro All the Tontatta have that weird Elmer Fudd style speech pattern. Dunno why, though.

RE: Chapter 1108: Come In, World
My personal opinion is the Satellites should have just been regular scientists. Nothing about them makes sense.
-
RE: European Politics Thread
That means they are no longer officially a neutral country then? Still, probably the best course being close to Russia.
-
RE: Chapter 1108: Come In, World
I have a feeling we won't actually learn what Vegapunk says next chapter, only reaction shots around the world, like "I can't believe it!", or "It's true?!".

RE: Avatar: The Last Airbender/Legend of Korra
By the way everyone, the cabbage merchant gets a shout-out in Baldur's Gate III, and he is especially irritable if you are a Monk.

RE: Chapter 1107: I've Been Looking For You!!
I have to say that it is good for Giants to finally live up to their reputation.
-
RE: Official Egghead Thread
So, what were Augur and Devon really up to on Egghead? It seems they weren't planning on Saturn being there, so was Vegapunk the original target and they got a better one by luck? But what are they going to do with said likeness?
My personal guess is somewhere like Marineford has a control center of sorts for the Seraphim, and they're looking to use what was going to be Vegapunk's likeness, now Saturn's, to program new orders.
-
RE: General Video Game Discussion
There's quite a few parallels of the characters from Binding Blade and the very original FE game, which is probably why there are so many characters in this game.
Just as an example: Roy/Marth, Marcus/Jeigen, Allen/Cain, Lance/Abel, Bors/Draug, Wolt/Gordin, Merlinus/Malledus...
You get the idea.

RE: The Great New World Discussion Thread
I've been thinking about Elbaf. Now, Big Mom says it possesses an army that if it aligned with her, not even the other Yonkou could stand against her, but the Giant Warrior Pirates are aligned with Shanks. So, either Big Mom didn't know about Shanks' ties, or as I suspect, the GWP are not the main force of Elbaf, instead being a sort of privateer force for them, like the real life Jomsvikings.
If I'm right, what kind of power does the King and/or his top huscarl have to be feared even by the WG?

RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
Even in a system with multiple parties, don't most elections come down to one of two sides, anyway?
-
RE: Official Egghead Thread
What if something happens like the reactor for the Mother Flame goes haywire and explodes and Saturn gets buried under the rubble and they don't know if he's alive or not? (He probably survives, naturally) But Morgans publishes that he died anyway? That would be a huge enough event.
-
RE: 1093: ''Winner-Take-All! Law vs. Blackbeard!''
There's been a big harrumph about Augur destroying Cracker's biscuit soldiers with simple gunfire. Since they say even Luffy struggled with them, but surely the ice just made them brittle, no?
-
RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
@Nitwit Um, no. The UK had laws that made homosexuality illegal for centuries. Just look at Oscar Wilde.

RE: Talk LGBT Issues And Be Nice About It
@pariston_hill Well, Scotland chose to vote to stay with England, so I wouldn't hold my breath on that.

RE: 1092: "Bonney's Cry of Lament! The Darkness Lurking on Future Island"
Was it just me or was Teach's nose as long as Usopp's here?

RE: Official Egghead Thread
No offense, Deicide, but I would find it super lame if the Straw Hats need Uncle Rayleigh to save them from Kizaru again.

RE: WWE and other fed: Disccusion
Hopefully, that happens sooner then later. With all the steroids and coke he's done, it's surprising he's still alive.

RE: One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 (Switch, PS4, XBox One, PC; 2020)
Technique types are uniform in being the lower-tier characters in the game.
-
RE: Chapter 1103: I'm Sorry, Daddy
I know he won't defeat him, obviously, but next chapter better just be Kuma beating the absolute shit out of Saturn.

RE: Next Straw Hat Crewmates (Vol. 10 - Egghead)
Well, if she doesn't become a crewmate, then she definitely is going to be a Law-esque close ally.
-
RE: Greg: Teacher of SUPER " OP " course !
The Rio Poneglyph is supposed to be on Laugh Tale alongside the One Piece, so the series ending just as they find it would seem odd before the world learns the True History.

RE: 1087: "War On the Island of Women! The Incident Involving Koby the Hero"
@onemoment Maybe he choked her hard enough to make her spit up blood?

RE: EA SUCKS but so does Bioware Thread
Debateable. There's still the matter of the Thalmor, and what happens if Emperor Titus was indeed assassinated by you. And you know....all the dragons.
But at least Dreadwolf has a confirmed setting. We still don't even know where the hell VI is supposed to be at.
-
RE: EA SUCKS but so does Bioware Thread
Still not as long as a sequel gap as Skyrim and ESVI.

RE: Chapter 1100: Thank You, Bonney
It would have been hilarious if Mihawk went "Oh, that the guy I had tea with a year ago".
-
RE: Next Straw Hat Crewmates (Vol. 10 - Egghead)
For what it's worth, Bonney does have a 300 million plus bounty like other members of the crew.
-
RE: Official Egghead Thread
@electricmastro I would say Marineford would be under a Defense Ministry type, as the Marines are the WG's army.
-
RE: Official Egghead Thread
@electricmastro I would suppose as Head of Justice, that Enies Lobby and Impel Down would fall under Warcury's portfolio, as well.
