There's a large number of "reserved spot" entries in the robot database, which leads me to think they were withholding any secret units where they didn't want to show their hand at this point - datamining of the game pre-street date ended up revealing the scads of secret units in alpha 3 before the game even officially came out, as I recall. Being able to just patch the game day zero means they can hide anything that they want as a pleasant surprise. Edit: or they're just leftover spots in the dB, it could be that too. chirico cuvie fucked around with this message at 22:23 on Oct 16, 2021 |

That was kind of my point, as some assumptions were being made about the final game when the datamined information is clearly incomplete, and I didn't want us to go writing off anyone just because they didn't show up in the datamined files.

Don't see how you could do hakaioh's plot like that. Like, at all. The logics also kind of bizarre in the same game where they invented a newly completed version of lelouchs mech and infinity mazinkaizer

Also, how would the new dragons not be doable but GaoGaiGo, Katetsujin V2, Final GaoGaiGar and Betterman Cataphract are doable? Like, if it's cause those four have a basis (GaoGaiGar, Katetsujin, Genesic and Betterman), so do the new dragons (the old dragons). So I'm just...really confused why they wouldn't be involved.

The whole thing might have to do with the fact that the main villain at the end of J-Decker takes control of all the super AI Robots (Decker’s protected for some reason I can’t remember)

Supremezero posted:I... Don't see how you could do hakaioh's plot like that. If I were to guess I'd assume that the three "reserved player" units for GGG are probably some combination of the old and new GGG Brave Corps, and that the upgrades for GGG/GFG are possibly adding some of the ones without a logical partner as summon attacks, like Mike was for Star GGG in SRWT. Again, assuming that anything in the datamine listed as (series name)・予備 is a unit intentionally omitted from the demo data, for whatever reason.

Just played the demo, I was a bit surprised how hard they went on it being a super/real divide, expected a couple of each type on each route but nope. I wasn't super impressed by any of the V Gundam units but Team Rabbits was amazing. J-decker owned bones but that goes without saying. Also It's Kakuseijin V2 ,idk what a Katetsujin is.

With the demo out, is this going to support custom music tracks? VXT (and pretty much all the generation before on console did) but I haven't heard anything about it yet.

There's a data limit of about 900MB. For PC, you put the SRWMUSIC folder in the install directory of the game. For Switch, you're outta luck, but the real music tracks are available as DLC this time around.

It'd also be weird if the secondary Silver Phoenix Knigths from Knights and Magic weren't playable. At the very least, Edgar with the other two as call-ins. They have unique mechs and everything.

So far, it looks like J-Decker and Mazinger are the series interacting with Gridman the most. With that in mind, I would not be surprised to see, if not J-Decker arresting Akane, young Yuuta being assigned as Akane's guard in the ending sequence.

It's more implied to be a section of cyberspace she and Alexis took over than a purely mental world. I mean if we really want to get detailed, Gridman and Dynazenon are both absolutely more focused on the characters and their issues, with the greater overall setting being mostly designed to enable that, so to an extent, one shouldn't think too hard about how it all works.

Victory's a TV show with 51 episodes' worth of plot, Crossbone's a manga that's going to be a smaller source of nostalgia even if it has been successful enough to keep getting sequels. Combine that with how much less crowded 30 is on the Gundam front than VXT were and it makes sense.

Gridman is weird for me because I distinctly remember the Sabanified/Americanized live action version of the show as a kid and even had the combination toy for it by Bandai that forms up into whatever the final form of Gridman is. I think they called it Super Human Samurai Formo in English or something like that. I also remember Tim Curry as the voice of the villain Kilokhan well before being aware of all that is Tim Curry and still marvel at the fact that they managed to get him to do that show. I also remember the sniveling antagonist Malcolm guy that programmed the viruses and was the main source of conflict in the school and just kind of an all around rear end in a top hat that was apparently based on the Japanese antagonist guy though I've heard the latter has some more sympathetic points. Then SSSS Gridman I mainly know for Japan apparently becoming absolutely enamored with the female protagonist and antagonist while it was airing and with the latter example turning the virus programmer from a misanthropic geeky looking guy into an edgy looking misanthropic busty high school girl with what appears to be foot fetish kink tropes thrown in that also seemed to draw the eyes of the waifu crowd. I don't know much more than that because I've never actually seen that version of the show in any form. From the sounds of things and how it looks in the SRW 30 trailers it seems alright and is now turning into a franchise of it's own from what I can tell. It's just funny how I barely see Gridman from it on the internet at all so much as the very obviously waifu characters Rikka and Akane (I think I have that right) from it who seem extremely popular. Anyway my dream pick for possible DLC or just an eventual full inclusion in a proper SRW game remains Escaflowne. Still to this day sadly relegated to the Wonderswan Color game Super Robot Wars Compact 3 with terrible animation cuts and Yoko Kanno's BGM being completely destroyed by it's terrible sound chip.

Yeah Akane and Rikka are the most popular characters in the show because the show hangs basically its entire plot on Akane, and Rikka is her best friend. There's absolutely horny fanart of them, but there's horny fanart of almost every major character to ever exist in a popular anime.

Rikka and Akane are fine and the show does well with explaining Akane's character and why she's an antagonist. Gridman is very very good.
