drrockso20 posted:they could just not use VA's for a lot of them, they'd probably save a fair bit of money if they dropped voice acting from the games anyways, and this doesn't excuse this also happening in Portable games that usually don't have any voice acting in them Authentic voice acting has been a selling point since all the way back in F. It's not going away.

I've only just started SRWUX, but can someone give me a preview of what it does with Frontier?

It follows the two movies as opposed to the tv series. Which is mostly the same as the tv series + some new stuff from the second movie. On the other hand, you do get the attack for the Macross Quarter where it summons the other Macross Quarters + Isamu Dyson for an attack :V

Or yes, canning the series entirely if they ever have 1 or 2 high profile complete bombs. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but is voice acting really that expensive? I was under the impression that if the VA is still alive and active, it's actually not that hard to get them to come in for lines which means there's even less incentive to ever remove that feature. The only thing I can see getting away with no VA is perhaps if they made a full-fledged SRW game on Mobiles (as opposed to Mobage - not out of the question, for example, Square did make Final Fantasy Dimensions for mobile devices)

They'll just get the guy who voices Heero to voice every character for free.

Macross F was less of a love triangle and more of a two lovers and a third wheel who the lovers care about like a little sister sort of setup.

He didn't necessarily die he just warped off the planet with the Vajra queen. Possibly dead but no guarantees. That said I liked the Frontier movies overall better than the show.

For some reason I keep thinking this as a "And then Hikaru disappeared forever no questions about him in future Macross works please" thing except with Alto instead.

Does anyone know how many kills does a character get if they're on the branch you didn't pick for z2? I want to play the space route, but Zero needs to get aced for the IF route and he's on the Gurren Lagann path.

But if a SRW seriously bombs they're more likely to just stop making them, yeah.

Rascyc posted:I think that Virtual On stuff in Alpha-3 was the weirdest one off. It did get a plot in what, SRW K? Hell if I could tell what was going on with that plot though. The worst part was that the K version of Virtual On would have been easily the 2nd or 3rd most half-assed series inclusion if it wasn't for the Alpha 3 version. They ignored like 80% of the story and 95% of the units (Marz has like 40 different grunt units and K only had you fight the same 1 over and over). It just boiled down to 2 or 3 boss fights and one really boring swarm of the same grunt with no rhyme or reason.

Having Three Kingdoms characters in a SRW game is even weirder than I thought it would be. edit: at one point one of the characters says "we tested them and they're human, they just look like Gundams". Uh...that's kind of strange. Samurai Sanders fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Aug 6, 2015 |

J is a lot of fun... I really wish they'd translate more of these games so I'd know more about what's going on. The Bellezute is also OP as gently caress...

I was kinda hoping the move to PS4 would let Bandai Namco at least attempt translating the next OGS to Steam, considering they're porting everything else to English speakers these days.

Have they translated anything with near the amount of text as your average SRW?

They came back in spirit since we're still getting SD Gundams. Though now I want the original SD Gundam shorts in a game that also has 0079.
