I really want an English translation of OGs. I played through quite a bit of the first one a few years ago. Then I found out they were remade looking much nicer and because of how much nicer it looked I did not want to play the outdated version.

Kyosuke Nanbu and Excellen Browning also have two pairs of expies. Namco X Capcom brought in Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu while Endless Frontier brought Haken Browning and Kaguya Nanbu.

Ah Katina. I remember her well from the GBA OG. The term Hellcat that game stated was directed towards her and it fits perfectly. I don't think there is a single scene that she is featured in that does not have her raging. The girl is 99% anger as other then her status screen portait I can't remember one screen of her smiling.

Blaze Dragon posted:I disagree. Garnet is easily the best supporter in OG1 (OGs debatable, due to a mechanic Seyser Koze hasn't talked about yet which might put Russel above her, though I disagree). She gets extremely useful spirit commands, put her in the Wildraubtier (is this even a spoiler? I don't know...), and she's unmatched in throwing support spirits left and right. I'd put her above Russel (apart from very specific situations that basically need the previously-mentioned mechanic), as well as more than one actual offensive pilot who haven't appeared yet so I won't name. She does get her own Custom unit for a while, the R-Gun, someone else was just using it first.

KataraniSword posted:The difference is that they're not really mirror shades, they're more "super-shiny anime glasses". Think Gendo Ikari. They are actully tech glasses that let her scan stuff she can see. They look shiny in order to hide all of the tech babble that would show up for people looking at her. Sadly this kind of makes her look creepy.

I don't know for sure but with Egret, there is just something about him. I played the GBA a decent amount of the GBA version (Though I don't know how close I got to the end on ether story nor can I really remember what happened.) but Egret for me made a strong impression for some reason and felt like he was getting a lot of build up. I had a feeling he was actually the main villain. Though I really can't remember anything nor did I get far enough to confirm it. Still even here he just leaves a powerful impression on me and I don't know why.

After Villeta leaves the R-Gun was given to Katina to pilot officially if I remember. So she is a pretty good match for that ship from what I know.

Lets give it to Russel on the Kyouske route. Katina is the official pilot of the R -Gun and that works pretty well for her. Anyway I am changing my vote to. Who ever officially got it. MonsterEnvy fucked around with this message at 00:39 on Feb 12, 2015 |

So are we going to keep Katina in her current mech or give her the R Gun?

CmdrKing posted:I dunno, dull as Reiji and Xiaomu are as a unit, I can forgive quite a lot for things like the last attack she has here I actually prefer Reiji and Xiaomu to Kyousuke and Excellen. With Reiji and Kyousuke there is not too much of a difference them. But I just like Xiaomu better then Excellen. Maybe it's because she is a huge nerd, maybe it's because like her shouting her attack names ("Xiaomu Typhoon, Xiaomu Laser, Xiaomu Break, Xiaomu Surfer, High Speed Xiaomu) I just like her better. Overall I really like the pair and the pair they were based on. Also Saya who kinda makes a trio with Reiji and Xiaomu. Onmi posted:And they cannibalize other OG characters plot arcs, AND they have enough derivatives to have a game starring nothing but Kyosuke and Excellen expies. Could you name some of them. Kyousuke Nanbu and Excellen Browning, Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu, Haken Browning and Kaguya Nanbu. These three groups are the only ones I know of for sure. But I suppose you could have a game staring the six of them. MonsterEnvy fucked around with this message at 07:43 on Feb 26, 2015 |

GimmickMan posted:That last scene is why, even though I forgot about generic dickbags like Siebel after my first playthrough, Thomas stuck to memory. The guy is genre-savvy enough to know this is going to end badly for the DC and bails, denying you the satisfaction of doing him in. He did not seem a bad enough guy to need revenge from Ryoto. He pointed out that it was all Alder's orders that Ryoto was going to be sacrificed, and he encourged Ryoto's defection in a way.

I was holding it back because I thought you were gonna bring it up later, but the reason Thomas disappears is that he's been sucked to La Gias to hang out in the Lord of Elemental games. He's just as great there, too. I just learned he shows up in Dark Prison as well in the OG Timeline.

From looking through his history I have more or less figured out the truth about Axel. Throughout the games he has had 5 Personalities a different one in each game he shows up in. Also it appears that all of his attacks are named after the 4 sacred Beasts. Genbu, Byakkyo, Seiryu and Suzaku. (Though he has not used his Suzaku attack yet.)

AradoBalanga posted:Keep in mind that Lee blames the razing of Beijing in the previous game on the Steel Dragons, not the Aerogators. He steadfastly believes that because our heroes did not see Ingram's betrayal coming from miles away and allowed the Aerogators to nearly overwhelm them, the Steel Dragons are responsible for the deaths of many in Beijing including Lee's wife and parents. Therefore, the Steel Dragons are a group of horrendously incompetent chucklefucks that got lucky several months ago in-universe and should be treated as such. This is (some of) the logic that Lee operates on. Katina is also being very very disrespectful to him.

legoman727 posted:Oh hey the first of the two OG Remake plot changes that piss me off. He's still a jackass. But I preferred actually evil Axel still. Honestly I wish they had not fired the Beowulf twist off already as well. Lee's rewrite works a lot better then Axel's I think it was stated that Axel had more or less 4 personality changes over the games he showed up in.

Son Ryo posted:That's because he wasn't, originally. However when he does not have Amnesia in in SRW A he is an evil rear end in a top hat as the villains enforcer. A thing that should be noted is that Axel despises the W series viewing them as lesser beings. A problem a lot of fans had with him in OG2 was that this appeared to come out of nowhere. In reality he had this trait when he was a villain in SRW A but his traits as a villain did not stand out as much as his protagonist traits.

KataraniSword posted:Absolutely not! But the other Shadow Mirrors have more or less blatant similarities, even if they aren't the same people. And don't worry, we'll get to meet Beowulf soon enough. There's a reason I called Axel "rear end in a top hat Kyosuke" instead of "Evil Kyosuke" like the post I was referencing did. Axel is still pretty evil given Shadow Mirror's Goals

MonsieurChoc posted:Also being Metal Gear villains. In the games that they have appeared in, the goal of the Shadow-Mirror is to plunge the world in eternal war. Vindel, their leader, believes that war brings about change and the best in humanity, so there is no reason to desire peace. He defines peace as the stagnation in between one war and the next, causing man to become corrupt and weak, and is thus undesirable. Metal Gear villains is almost too perfect of a description for them.
