If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

I just want a cool game. If it has weird stuff like Hathaway's Flash, cool. If it doesn't, well, I'll still enjoy it.

Original Macross should come back one of these days too. And the old Gundam series that never get done anymore, like F91. Not Crossbone, just F91.

I want the Original Macross with Zone of the Enders. Because it works. You get blown to Pluto, fly back encounter the Jupiter Colony from ZotE 1. Then you make it to Mars for the FoM events, then you head to earth, and then back to Mars for the ZotE 2 Events... and Mars Daybreak which is another show not getting into SRW. Which it should because robot suit porpoise.

While we're waiting are there any thoughts on Gundam Online? They're doing commercials for the new update for it on Youtube and I didn't realize it was a thing. Looks like it might be fun.

Thanks for this. For some reason I was getting the blocked in your country notification. Have to wait till 6:30am though for the announcement.

Actually, I'm really sorry, but I looked it up and apparently getting to see the countdown means nothing. If you can't see the stream on the actual page (http://live.suparobo.jp/), you're blocked. I have no idea WHY they do this, but they do. Usually someone from /m/ that happens to be in Japan/has access to VPN stuff does a stream-of-stream but no one seems to have announced one yet. I hope we do get one, otherwise I'm going to be pretty annoyed.

Answering my own question: Gundam Online is pretty good. We should all play it some time.

Edit: Except for how long it takes you to actually be able to access all of the options in the game. Also, like most freemium games, everything is staggeringly expensive.

Which one did you mean? SD or UC?

SD Gundam Online has a much larger selection of suits (all across the metaseries), is a much lighter load on your computer, and is available in english. It's been around longer so there's a larger playerbase too. Downsides is that it's all in SD (if that's a thing that bugs you), not particularly pretty, the larger playerbase means more insufferable people. That's what private rooms are for, I suppose.

UC Gundam Online is OYW only (with the odd exceptions of GP-01 and GP-02 IIRC), and as a modern game is much prettier and more of a drain on your computer. I can't really speak fairly on it because all I know about it is from one friend who is constantly bitching about his experiences on it but if you had fun then that's that.

EDIT: Whoops, UCGO is actually Mobile Suit Gundam Online. That's probably what you meant then.

Yeah, it's decently fun. Mostly it makes me want to get an actual retail Gundam PVP game like Gundam Breaker (or 2 since that's coming out soon). Freemium games always tend to hook you in with some fun gameplay to start with until you realize that, unless you pay money, you're going to be grinding the same levels over and over for weeks trying to get good enough gear to go competitive. Also melee is broken. I think I'll definitely just get Gundam Breaker 2 instead.

JFYI, Gundam Breaker isn't PvP. It's, at least from 1, a purely PvE experience. Think of it as Dynasty Warriors meets Diablo meets Gunpla.

Well I guess having SRW map music in the background is safer on the ears than blasting P4 Arena tracks.

In other news translating SRW games is a kind of fascinating hell. I am curious as to what they're saying but oh my god why do they never stop talking.

This could be another 25 minutes since it says at the bottom it's beginning at 23:00. So this was just the countdown to the wait. :v:

That said these songs are nice. I like the one currently playing at the time of posting, especially the GBA OG2 version.

Yeah, one of the interesting things about SRW is that they have an absolutely absurd amount of text. They are not the wordiest JRPGS (due to having no NPC dialogue) but they have some of the heavily sheer amount of text in a main storyline in a JRPG.
