Augus posted:I recently found out that the guidebook description where it calls Eggman a “feminist” is apparently a mistranslation of “womanizer” and I’m not sure which is funnier in japanese the word 'feminist' when referring to a guy is used more to refer to someone who goes easy on women or is soft on them, with the implication that they do it to look good. think opening doors for them, saying you wouldn't hit a woman, etc. good example is in the recent anime akudama drive where a female antagonist is fighting the characters, one of the protagonists doesn't want to hit her and just sort of shoves her to the side, and then another character yells at him to 'stop being such a feminist!' a closer english word would be 'chivalrous' or 'gentleman,' but in a sort of sarcastic way. of course even this explanation is still funny because hes 100% up for shooting cream and amy in the head with a giant laser

its very funny seeing reviews going 'why does this sonic game have a serious plot though??? who is this for' its one thing to prefer it not having one but you have to be pretty blind to not get that there's a large fanbase of people who do like the serious sonic plots

ZearothK posted:What's up with Frontiers? Steam reviews are overwhelmingly positive (at 95%), while every single professional reviewer I've found has been making GBS threads on the game. Are the console releases broken or something or is just that Sonic Team got it right for their fans while missing their critics? jokes aside the critic reviews really arent that bad. its sitting in the 70s which isnt amazing but is a full 20 points above forces.

and also all the people who are giving it like 2s and 1s are people who go out of their way to post poo poo like  a lower score is totally fair for it but the people giving it 1s and 2s are just ragebaiting, as proven by the fact that they go out of their way to argue with people about it

MorningMoon posted:If he bought on January and sold at DQ Tact's launch, he potentially made 3 to 4 times his investment. Some people are saying that the dumbass bought the stocks under his own name, I'll wait until a full translation's out before I fully believe that, but if it's true, then that could absolutely be the reason he got booted from Balan. Square saw that poo poo, knew police investigations were gonna happen and just tried to minimize how much it'd damage them. honestly getting arrested for this at all takes some stupidity. Most insider trading is just finding a patsy to buy the stocks for you and then splitting the money.

eh, i dont think its really trying to be 'classier and dignified.' if anything the angle its going for is very anime, its just the anime arc where the characters are going through it a bit emotionally.

list of amy appearances: sonic cd: is a sprite thats onscreen for 2 seconds sonic adventure: is kind of boring but is better than big sa2: is in three cutscenes sonic heroes: plays the exact same as every other character and her route has less annoying gimmicks than team chaotix's shadow: is she even in this one sonic 06: is in like 2 cutscenes rush: hangs out with blaze once? boom: its boom forces: i think she has a line frontier: is pretty normal

i mean frontier already took amy in a decent direction imo, you dont need to radically alter the universe every game to just shift characterization. tails and amy got good material in that game that built off their previous stuff.

the most sonic hate shadow has been at is probably battle, it isnt much of a thing in sa2 (he always seems mildly bemused/annoyed by their rivalry) and in shadow the hedgehog it only comes up briefly. and i dont think heroes or 06 mention it at all.

its weird because the games themselves seem less restrictive, somehow. does amy mention her crush on sonic at all in frontiers? i think its acknowledged a couple of times but she never actively acts on it or even behaves like it still exists.

and with frontier making it very explicit that every previous game was canon for them to have 'canon ages' either sonic adventure 1 happened when they were all like 5 or they've had the worst year imaginable

i mean sonics always been meant to be a teenager too not to mention its not like theres anything in the games themselves that make any real point of amy or sonic's ages. im sure its mentioned in a couple manuals but your average fan probably has no idea amy was ever even meant to have a canon age or that it was meant to be younger than sonic's. and im sure most of the actual writers didnt really care or notice it, either.

Hrist posted:Listen, I'm not slow or anything. He wasn't that dark. But he was a dark blue. Like, weirdly dark compared to the Genesis era stuff. I googled the art I was thinking of, and he was still darker on that compared to Modern Sonic. But yeah, the figure I had made him even darker than that. That's why I got confused. I thought they based it on the weird art colors since it was all the same year or so.

Larryb posted:I think Tails (and maybe Knuckles in Underground) were the only characters that weren’t altered that much for the cartoons. I never understood why they couldn’t just use Robotnik’s game design either you only see his ingame sprite pretty briefly and at weird angles, while the american cover art for sonic 2 is basically what the cartoons used. likely just referencing that official art

That loving Sned posted:I know it doesn’t matter at all, but every fight in the Puyo Puyo Tetris story mode feels like those Kingdom Hearts cutscene compilations. They include the cutscenes before and after the battle, but not the fight itself. It looks like the characters suddenly became exhausted just from the idea that they’d have to fight.

the best part of the RPGs puyo puyo spun off from (and radically overtook) is that satan is like, the fakeout final boss that helps you beat the real villain, so when he does so you get everyone going 'thanks, satan,' 'you arent such a bad guy, satan'

there's a 95 treatment thats different from this one that uhhhquote:Eggman then runs into Hal, who reluctantly accepts Eggman's offer to be the park's main research and development designer. Using Hal's XRI technology, Eggman develops a virtual reality ride to draw kids to the newly revived theme park. The park opens to huge crowds, with kids all across town attending opening day. However, when Josh and Sonic manage to inspect the ride, they discover Eggman is using the ride to turn the kids into his Badniks, calling them Kinder-Bots and forcing them to look around the park to find the Chaos Emeralds. After further inspection, the duo discovers that Eggman, using the Chaos Emeralds, will program the XRI to turn the world's natural landmarks, such as Mount Everest and the Amazon rainforest, into digital replicas so that he can make virtual reality experiences and profit off of people wanting to see them, so that they wouldn't have to visit the landmarks themselves.
