Oh poo poo yeah, Valkyrie Profile! I loved the hell out of this game when I borrowed it from a friend, and one of my biggest regrets was not actually picking up a copy for myself when I had the chance. The PSP remake is basically the reason I bought my first PSP. No regrets.  Gonna enjoy the hell out of this LP.

ApplesandOranges posted:Anyway, I want to start working on the update tomorrow, so I'm closing the poll. It was close, but Hai-Lan got a come from behind victory. Awesome. Ever since I first played this game, this guy's been one of my favorites. Mechanically I realize there are likely better options, but I don't care because he's just so drat cool.

Poor Jun couldn't accept his Shadow and failed to obtain the power of Persona.  Seriously, though, it's a shame that we didn't get to hear any of his voice clips here, because he's got some of my favorite lines.

Whenever I play this game, I can't use Lucian without Brock's face popping into my mind every time he speaks.

Speaking of self-sacrifice for the sake of knowledge, guess who is sometimes associated with this card!  : 'Sup?In one of the Eddas, Odin hung himself upside-down from the trunk of the Yggdrasil for nine days and nine nights, by impaling himself with his own spear. By doing so, he gained great wisdom and retrieved the secrets of runes from the source and end of all sacred mystery and knowledge. : Yeah, and let me tell you, it hurt like a bitch. Worth it, though!

dis astranagant posted:Lezard is just the smuggest motherfucker there ever was and he knows he has all the power and info to back it up. Agreed. For those who missed it at the bottom of the previous page: Sientara posted:Lezard: Look at that  face. That is the face of a man who knows exactly what everyone thinks of him, and does not give one single gently caress one way or the other. He realizes full well that he's the bad guy here, and he loving revels in it every single moment he's on screen.

I never made it far enough into VP2 to run into Lezard. Does Liam O'Brian do his Grimoire Weiss voice from Nier, or does he do something different?

You remember that movie Taken, about Liam Neeson killing half of France to get his daughter back? You remember the phone conversation from the trailer where he's basically telling the guy "If you let my daughter go, I won't come after you; but if you don't, then I will hunt you down, I will find you and I will kill you"? That's basically what kind of connotation "unforgivable" carries in Japan. If someone has done something "unforgivable" then they have crossed the line, and the only option that remains is (usually lethal) retribution.
