Character recruitment remix over a scene from My Dinner with André never ceases to slay me 😹

AMAZING take! Glad to see gen 1 getting the proper love they deserve again. Just a shame that the fandom take is bubbling as severe hatred for it nowadays for the dumbest and easily arguable reasons.

Remember how gen 2 used to be one of the most beloved and favored generations among the fanbase? I do, and thats the way it should have stayed. I only respect and enjoy Gen 1-6 and I hate the new ones.

Celica's not a bad unit IMO definitely better than all the other ones in the bad tier

I gotta say, gen 2 is still better than anything made after b2w2

Instructions unclear. I’m blue dabadeeabodai

What do you mean like a dragon suck

Is your intention to murder someone with that low framerate gameplay of Elden Ring?

I fully believe in the edgy swordmaster theory of fire emblem. the edgy swordmasters in tellius are black knight and knife sage soren btw. and the lack of edgy swordmasters in fates and engage is why they're bad. BUT! you can make your own thanks to reclassing. so they're good actually "Compared to other stuff we've seen" doing a lot of work on that christmas-wait holy shit volleyball??? GOLD MEDAL BITCHES FUCK THE US LONG LIVE VOLLEYBALL LONG LIVE WOMEN FUCK YEAAAAAAAAAA. I mean I have no strong feeling on the olympics or sports in general. and I definitely don't check social media in the middle of writing a sentence. anyway yes I'm not sure you can call any yunaka outfit tasteful really. It's the side cutouts. Although the fact that they're star shaped in the xmas alt is really cute and I love her. hoarah loux or whatever definitely has a wwe entrance and that rules actually. The whole ending rules actually that looks so cool. I love elden beast's dinosaur ediacaran ass holding a sword in his widdle hand well done first trying new game+!!!

I did NOT click on this Vod because of the thumbnail. This just happened to be the elden ring content I clicked on

Shout outs to HandsomeAndHung, he's a real one

Suck off the ghost lol

This is a really good video essay. I had never realized it until it was pointed out here, but I agree with the points. I like flat out tutorials and pop-ups, as I need to know how to play the game. I also enjoy more diagetic tutorials. 2D Mario is really good at getting a player to learn a mechanic without blatantly telling them. They make it so that you cant progress unless you do an interaction that a player needs to know to beat the rest of the level. It prevents people from missing a key mechanic and getting stuck. The "yellow paint" that people don't like is in between these 2 types of tutorials. I don't like when a tutorial tries to be diegetic, but can't fit into the game naturally, so they use paint instead of committing to something more "video-gamey" and easy to read. Like if we're already going to forgo immersion to teach me something, I'd rather it be obvious then "fake blend in".

Giving Onix a base stat total of 500 wouldn't make him too hard for newbies.

Demon souls & Dark souls 3 are better than elden ring

I was looking forward to Rayquaza hunt tbh. Nintendo arc

I hate videos with titles like this

I don't think og re4 fans are complaining about yellow paint, it's definitely PSX RE and CV fans who are behind this.

Does multiplayer military shooters with offline bots considered unethical or not?

Still play this game till this day. Hell, Im always playing Castlevania is some kind.

You don’t need divine confetti for o’rin and monk!!! Still very beatable!!!!

The funny thing about Fire Emblem difficulties to me is that they generally assume you have played through before and memorized or written down map layouts. Or that you're not Japanese, so you're not worthy of the silly difficulty. Sometimes I love the super hard unbalanced difficulties, because they give even seasoned players fully willing to abuse Jagens and such a reason to grind/grow/abuse ways to get exp. I also love when fans make silly rom hacks with even more ludicrous difficulties or twists. Like the split route maddening patch for Sacred Stones, where you actually split the army and send half with Eirika and half with Ephraim, and play both routes in the same playthrough. But most of the time I view anything beyond a standard normal or hard mode as a waste of time. Mainly because almost all super high level Fire Emblem play involves the reset button and liberal use of it. And this is ultimately because Fire Emblem is a game about unit stats, not strategy.

Is it better for the vagina bones guy to be a chaser than hater? Probably.

best pokemon game hands down

I'd put Ike from Path of Radiance as my platonic lord. Mainly because he doesn't actually start out as one. He starts out as a, "Ranger." And his goal in life, at first, is to just live up to the task of being a mercenary. You know, someone who gets hired to fight and often kill other people. From a gameplay perspective he starts out weak, but he starts out weak at a time where most of your units are also weak, and he has one thing going for him in that he has good growths and high hit rate. This makes him effective chip and kill for the first few maps that he's in, where he's got solid combat for his first 4 maps (sure it's nothing compared to Titania's, but whose really is?). As the early game progresses, the mercenary band is put onto the backfoot for essentially 4 maps in a row, two of those maps being defend point maps, and Ike can certainly choke a point about as well as any of your other units (Titania and Gatrie are the best, Oscar third, but then Ike basically at least if robed, Shinon if he's not). Just before that 4th map, Ike's father is killed in the narrative, forcing Ike to be the leader. This actually causes your 2nd and 3rd best units by bases to leave the party, something you don't really see in most FEs. A map or so later storyline wise, Ike vows before the King of Lions to avenge his father's death, because him being powerless to save his father keeps him up at night. "I will devote myself to getting stronger." Ike says. A mere two maps later, his father's killer appears again, a time pressure on an otherwise endless map with the "Unit Arrives" condition. You can have Ike try to fight him here, in spite of their stat disparity. However, even if you rigged every single Ike level up and had him at level 20 Ranger with 40 HP, 20 STR, 20SKL, 20SPD, 20DEF, 20 LCK, and 20 RES with an Armorslayer, he would only be able to deal 3 damage to The Black Knight, while getting doubled for 28 damage a swing. You can have Ike live through a combat with him, should you have Oscar B and Soren C supports and a capped speed Ike, and a high biorhythm, then the BK's hit rate may be 80ish or lower. If you do so, Titania and Mist both chide Ike for being so brazen and reckless, gambling his life at a shot for revenge. This sets up a goal for the player to actually want to train Ike. In case the player forgot, 13 chapters later on a not so endless map, The Black Knight appears again. By now, Ike should be promoted and quite a lot stronger. Easily able to damage The Black Knight with any sword over 10 MT. However, he cannot. If the player doesn't try to fight The Black Knight during the course of the map, there is a cutscene that will play where he does try. Landing two blows that have no effect, he has the importance of the sacred sword waved in his face. Then, 3 maps later, there is a base conversation with Titania that is a meta narrative suggestion for the player to look at The Black Knight's stats, mathematically calculate if victory is possible, and run away if it's not. At the end of that map, Ike is thrown into what winds up being a 2v1 against his father's killer. Mist showed up so that he wouldn't have to dodge 7/10 hits from The Black Knight to win. This is painful for those who weren't invested in Ike's arc, and even more painful for those who refused to use the second available healer in the game that had greater speed than the first. You can always just run away, but I find it supremely satisfying to have trained Ike and win. You can even win without skills so long as Ike fights and hits BK every single turn for 9 damage per Player/Enemy phase.

your analysis is really great, the love you have for beautiful story aspects is really apparent

Wow! Fire emblem engage on ps5 is so much less stylised and animeesque! What an interesting art difference! Anyway I wouldn't recommend playing three houses if you want to get into twitter discourse. it's not like anyone else discoursing has. This looks cool as hell btw that shield is so fun to look at. and it even does damage? like I'd just be throwing it around for kicks Also "subterranean shunning grounds"? yeah my middle school's gym was in the basement I've been there Well done on first try mohg! seems a bit rude considering how cool they are in chat but that's just how video games are ig

On a side note it's hilarious to me that in Sacred Stones, Kyle and Forde are introduced on a map where you have the option to train either of them up alongside Ephraim, but because people have heard they're both lackluster, almost no one does this. It's hilarious because they are both balanced around the player doing this, even moreso on a repeat playthrough, since you know Orson will be a traitor by the end of the map, so he's a literal EXP thief. Of course, they're both sort of there to make Ephraim look that much better by comparison, even though Ephraim's main strength is being able to use Reginleif which is the best weapon in the game (practially, from a utility vs. when you obtain it ratio). If you hacked the game and let Forde or Kyle also wield Reginleif, imagine how that'd feel.

When you posed the question, "Why doesn't everyone just load up on horses and use what's best?" Well, it's not just because that's less fun, it's also because of Fire Emblem map design actually negating the advantage of horse every few maps. So you've got yourself a horse, and you can ride it 8 spaces out into the middle of the enemies... Except that's suicide unless you're Big Stats Johnson. Also, though, especially early on, there are defense maps and less horses! The games almost never just hand you an entire platoon of horse units. If you need a unit to hold a defensive position, being on a horse actually gives almost no advantage. Also there are horse killer weapons which are super effective against the person riding the horse, I guess (Why are FE units linked to their horse on an existential level? Hmm). So usually by the time you have the option to go all in on horses, you've already incidentally trained half a dozen non-horses, and no unit that's introduced weaker than your general party will have good unit feel, especially if that weakness means they can't make use of their "advantage."

Gen 2 is still my favorite. I don't know if it's something inherent to the games or just an artifact of online guides being extremely easy to find these days, but it had a feeling of mystery that I haven't encountered elsewhere. Play at different irl times to get different Pokemon, have people tell you specific days when you can find something, references to mysterious Pokemon in caves, everything about the Ruins of Alph, the roaming dogs. I didn't have a guide, I just had a game, and it felt like you could find anything if you just explored at the right time. Still fuckin weird that houndour isn't available until Kanto, what was up with that

Please stop taking philosophy classes you are your higher education.

Hey I just realized loved the different perspective you put from "wow the leaders mostly use gen 1 pokemon" to "but their aces are gen 2" and cementing that importantance with both anecdotes and general understanding of story. It's nice to see data change through Truely critical lenses. An amazing video, done by someone with real thought

That "Brick" payoff was amazing. I was wondering why you called it that and it finally made sense when you talked about Lance's Dragonite.

Did you win that case?

I’m not happy with Pixel Remaster. I’d demand an HD-2D remake of the Final Fantasy NES and SNES trilogies, as it is already being done with Dragon Quest’s Erdrick trilogy.

I'm playing crystal for the first time and there are 2 things I hate about it: limited inventory (I hoard items) and it doesn't ask you when you want to replace a move once you select it. I lost my only grass move on my Chikorita (which i just found out is the only move theyll have for a while) by button mashing.

Currently doing a marathon run of all the base games (managed to load them all onto my 3ds). Gen 2 and their remakes are still my favorites despite everything. Interesting that going back to games i was excited for ended being not so excited yet gen 2 after so many playthroughs, still doesnt fail to entertain and pull me in.

Will the sentiment of "you should seperate the art and artist" be red? Or was that covered in blue? Because some people talk about it online like it's literally a virtue. Critical fail at determining author's intentions but ok consoomer.

solution: miquella descends from the heavens when you enter the realm of shadows grabs you and says "if you dont get scadutree fragments im gonna KILL YOU" then floats away

"I play Shadow Dragon the most boring way possible and I find it boring." Well, duh. Try not doing that. I mean it. It's the game's fault that it incentivices boring strats for sure, but you owe yourself to do a playthrough where you don't do that just to see how amazing these maps really are.

Blood would look wayyyy better then yellow paint

As an Onyx fan in G1 and steel stan since G2, I still to this day have a strong dislike for Pikachu because of the anime. Plot reasons let Ash beat Brock by taking advantage of the sprinkler system. "Hey, how can we have the main character use Pikachu against a ground type Pokémon.... sprinkler system!"

The side quests in 12 aren't just monster hunts, most of them are actually neat little contained side stories that help the vast world feel more alive. Hands down, 12 has my favorite bonus content of the series because of this.
