What game are you playing/looking towards?

Oh, and just because


I'll talk more about how awesome Killer is Dead is later.

Still on my trek to get all the art for Dragon's Crown.  Thinking about getting a Vita since every RPG I own and haven't played yet is getting ported to it or remade for it with extra content(Neptunia Rebirth 1&2, Disgaea 4, Atlier Rorona remake) that I don't have to pay the equivalent for in dlc and still be short some content.  Also, Dangan Ronpa 1&2 coming here fore it is nice, and there's Gravity Rush.  There's also stuff that may come out over here like Dangan Ronpa 1.5, the future prospect of Gravity Rush 2, and the long shots of the up and coming Kantai Collection, Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus, and probably something else I can't remember.  Price drop and new model aren't hurting either.

Also, Mighty # 9 is having a public vote for what Call's design will be. 
So go vote if you have any interest in the game, the top 3 will be colored and flushed out that's backers only.
Also some info about Call's character

Call is a female robot originally created by Dr. White’s friend, Dr. Sanda, to help assist him with his research; she somehow avoided being infected by the virus causing all the other robots to go berserk and has pledged to help Beck


Call was not imbued with the human characteristics that make Beck unique, so she’s more of a pure robot -- as you might imagine, this contrast can lead to some interesting differences and misunderstandings whenever they interact!

I'm gonna keep my vote in spoilers so as to not overtly influence you <_<

Spoiler:

I cannot get behind design B at all - it's very Strike Witches, and not in a good way. Implied panties is kind of "Uh no" for a Mega Man inheritor, IMO.

F is kind of being set up to win with it being a spunkier take on Roll (how that will mesh up with her stated "reduced humanity" will be interesting).

Really?  I didn't see them as that, I just saw them as traditional pants suit.

Also, just because F is being set up to win(by appearing first, being drawn in the same style as Beck, and looking the most Roll), doesn't mean everyone has to capitulate to it.  You got to ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWER!  Go with your desires!  Throw caution to the wind and let the chips fall where they may!  Just go with what you want to win, if that's F, that's totally cool, but don't discount the underdogs =)  

Also, this is something hate about the single vote system, it forces people to go with what they feel is a sure thing instead of what they truly want.  The alternative vote system needs to be used in more thing. It's explained best in this video https://youtu.be/3Y3jE3B8HsE if you're curious, though be aware that it's used in a somewhat political context, but with animals.

Anyway, back on topic, I'm sad none of the prototype designs for Call by that artist made it through except for F, pink twintails was adorable.  That is assuming that these were proto-Calls to begin with.

Oh, I missed my chance to back Mighty No. 9 unfortunately.  This greatly saddened me, but I only have myself to blame.  However, I did manage to back Shanate, and saw this http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1236620800/shantae-half-genie-hero/posts/618078  

However, I wasn't able to back it that much(I do only have so much money and didn't really want beta access) to vote for those rather interesting transformations, especially the Succubus, who commands the undead(I wonder if Rottytops counts...), and can "Stun Foes with your stares", very interesting ^__^

Thinking about backing another kickstarter.  It's a pretty little popular little thing, and Risty will be getting his outfit and sword the Half Genie Hero.  But yeah, it has a trailer with some fun gameplay, music, and other stuff.  It's called Hyper Light Drifter http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1661802484/hyper-light-drifter?ref=category  It's coming to PS4 and Vita too, so that's cool.  Seems to have some notable people interested in it, but yeah, it's already funded and everything, so this is more of a heads up if you're interested.

Speaking of Shantae, there are also these forms in a previous update that I missed.  It actually has a Arachne form... that is just too cool.  And since two bonus levels were funded we'll hopefully see some of these in action.

Oh yeah, and there's a trailer of Ages of Amazones up http://www.siliconera.com/2013/09/13/ages-of-amazones-shows-off-characters-and-sci-fi-dungeon-exploration/  
This game is too good to be true...  We have tons of monster girls and villainesses, some 95% chance of yuri, and the main heroine has the ability to used her eyepatch eye to effect female characters in some way(clothing removal?).  Oh, and it's being developed by Arc System Work, so yeaaaah.  If there is any male dropped into this game to act as the leader like in Queen's Blade Spiral Chaos...  I will curse all of japan's gaming culture... 

In other gaming news, I decided to play through some Fate/Unlimited Codes(aka that game that Saber Lily came from).  But yeah, it's entertaining, playing through various characters storylines(like Dark Sakura, Caster, Rin, etc) is very fun, and it's super easy so that means you only have to spend like 10 minutes to get a characters story.  It's nothing too fancy, but you do get artwork done by Takeuchi Takashi made just for the game.  It's a real pity the license expired for it, it used to be up on the PSN.  It's something lost to history... but then agains, there's probably youtube and such.

In other other news, I plan on getting Lollipop Chainsaw, yay.

Has there been any talk about P4A: The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold yet?

Because this is in-

http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/3/33880/2530591-3278055815-013.j.jpg

I've heard of this, but damn do I love Shadow Mitsuru's expression.  Aegis's one isn't too bad either.

As for me, I've beaten Fate/Unlimited Codes, so that's a plus(unlocked everything except all versus portraits because 16 man survival becomes very hit or miss towards the end).  There is some relevance that I might make one last Sighting to if I have enough time.

This is interesting, Deception IV(aka that game series where you play as a hot girl in a cool outfit and have devil powers that let you place traps).
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/10/24/sinister-ladies-stars-deception-iv-blood-ties/
I wonder how the mediums work, like, are they trap support or do you play as them at points?  One this is worth noting, the last Deception to come over here(known as Trapt) had some bad endings in which you either became a servant to the devil or possessed by him...  I'm hoping this lovely ladies make this yuri in someway...  God I hope there's a bunch of yuri art for this game, the girl who possesses the power of the devil, and her mediums that represent “luxuriance,” “brutality,” and “humiliation” I believe.  The blue haired one takes her to bed in style or makes her a maid, the red head does S&M, and the blonde treats you like a toy...

Playing Pokemon Y(wynaut, double pun bonus~!).  I'm enjoying it quite a bit, surprise, hahaha.  Anyway, just beat the first gym, however, on a rather interesting note, there's a Lass in there that talks about you being caught in her web, and then after you win she comments on how pretty the dewdrops are in a spiders web...  Dirty mind took that to some wonderful territory, using drops of dew on a spider's web to hypnotize someone...  You could even take it one step further and have it like the gyms layout.  As you walk along the web, your eye catches the glint of a drop of dew.  It mesmerizes you as you walk towards it as it bobs with your steps, and then it falls down into the darkness, your eyes following it the whole way down...  As your eyes begin to come back up, you see another drop of dew deeper in the web... etc, hehehe.  Pity the Gym Leader isn't much to write home about.  If she actually fit a spider theme it would of been nice, but she's just a nature photographer(I mean you can work something in there, camera flash hypnosis, maybe the fairy type gym leader or other girls getting a flash and being asked in they're ready for their nude photo shoot, Viola then proceeds to take pictures of you and snaps you out of the trance and lets you beat her because she got what she wants).

Some things to look forward to.
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/10/28/god-eater-2-developers-free-dlc-important/
I heard this game is surprisingly good, like a more futuristic Monster Hunter with a good story. The series does have monster girls in it as well.

I know who I'm playing in Xrd~
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/10/28/faust-returns-guilty-gear-xrd-sign/
I played around a lot with the various characters in Guilty Gear XX Reload, but my undeniable main was Faust, who whenever I picked would provoke a groan from my brother.  THE POKE RANGE!  THE CRAZINESS OF HIS MOVES!, THE TELEPORTATION!  And, last but not least, his special where he swims through the ground, makes you chose a chest, a pokes you with his ridiculously huge scalpel.  

As for Pokemon Y, it's great.  The ability to customize your character can be taken to ridiculous extremes, you can make them look like trainers, gym leaders, or npc old gentlemen(at least in the little scroll of players around the world, will need to confirm myself).  Needless to say I haven't gotten to that point.  I've actually been rather slow, mostly due to maxing out my pokemon's Friendship because of the ridiculous bonuses it provides, and the happiness(which proved to be quite troublesome) for 2 of the early pokemon you can get.  One of them was a Budew that I had to catch again because my first didn't evolve and thus learned Worry Seed instead of Leech Seed.  But now I have a wonderful Roselia that I've always wanted to train with a good team combo going.  But yeah, this game is crazy good with online stuff, Wonder Trades are fun, and being able to customize your character so much(though it does take a while) is a blast.  According to my brother it doesn't have much post game content like Black2 & White2, and I will say money has been a issue since you can't re-fight trainers like in older games, but it's still fun.  There are a ton of nifty functions and I can go on and on, but I'll stop for now.

Probably make another post later.

Two quick updates.  Playing Pokemon Y, 4 gyms down, at the electric power plant area.  Also, for all the pokemon games I've played (Red, Blue, Yellow, Silver, Ruby, Emerald, Platinum(haven't finished yet regretfully)), I have to say, Korrina is one of the best Gym leaders by far, or at the very least, one of the most developed.  You encounter her two or 3 times before your gym battle, she has a likable personality, and she has to do with the main "story"(it is a Pokemon game...).  This being said I haven't played Black/White 1/2, but yeah, Korrina is just amazing.  She's right up there with Cynthia/Shirona for me.  I do love Sabrina/Natsume of course, and a few other gym leaders, but Korrina just stands heads above for me because of the amount of times you interact with her I suppose.

Oh, and November 14th, IT'S COMING
http://www.hanzonationalacademy.com/

Well, Senran Kagura Burst is now out on the DS marketplace, so if you're into brawlers with sexy ninja girls where you can play as both the "good ninja" the "bad ninja", has a good amount of yuri in it(mostly for pure, clueless Hibari but there should be some questionable moments), kiss attacks(from sexy Haruka), with 3d effects including in the changing room where you have over 70 costumes and swimsuits(which act as underwear which probably got this the T rating) to choose from, along with a surprisingly interesting and somewhat deep story, interesting mechanics of how to play, go check it out.  I'm not sure if there will be any hypno in it like there was in the show, and I probably won't find out till much later because I only got $16 which I owe to a friend and it's $30 so that ain't happening anytime soon, also it's somewhere around 13,000+ blocks(it does include the first and second game) ...  But yeah, "Bad Ninja" girl trailer is up, just go to multimedia, trailer, and go to the second trailer.
http://www.hanzonationalacademy.com/

Oh, and new female super boss in BDFS named Mammon from the Final Fantasy: The Four Heroes of Light
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/07/bravely-default-downloadable-special-bosses-future/

Also, it turns out the "international" version of FFX-2 has the same feature of FFXIII-2, like making monsters and npcs, even villains party members.  So, Leblanc, Female Goon, possibly Yunalesca?  Anyway, we'll be getting it with the HD remake, along with the sexy Psychic outfit with sexy visors...  Leblanc and Yunalesca with a reprogrammed Psyhic Yuna in the middle... heeehhehhehehe
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/06/final-fantasy-x-2-hd-remaster-will-international-dresspheres-creature-creator/

More Age of Amazones, lots of monster girls/enemy women
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/08/ages-amazones-bunny-girl-named-usa/
Then someone gives a little demo of the game which is pretty cool and rather yuri.
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/10/heres-good-look-ages-amazones-demo-3ds/

I'll take high quality 2D over what they're currently using for 3D remake any day. What something like FFIVDS has over every other version is the voice cast, but I'm thinking that's all, really.

After all, I'm pretty sure Melusine in FFIII/FFIV DS graphics wouldn't look anywhere near this good-
http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130620173308/f__/finalfantasy/images/0/0e/Melusine.jpg (if the image cuts out)


(She's actually wearing clothing???)

I think it's a compromise between Amano's and Nomura's artwork of her.  Amano's clothing, and Nomura's design(which was nude).
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Melusine_(Final_Fantasy_V)
However, in previous versions, she was nude(including her sprite artwork).

One thing about FFV that annoys me to no end is Amano's artwork as the character portraits...  It's just super immersion breaking to see cool looking sprite version with long purple hair and then super artsy bleach blonde hair tied down in a ponytail pops up...
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Faris_Scherwiz

As for sprite quality in a FFVI remake...  I'd be happy if we got something like FF7, but most likely we'll get chibis without the bonus dungeon that holds Vilia in it.

Oh, worth a mention DOA5 Ultimate is getting a cute trickster Gothic Lolita maid who is actually 18.  Who's maid is she, my bets on Helena, though she does seem to be the manipulative type.  Also there is infamously hard super boss doppelganger goo girl Alpha-152 too.

http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/18/dead-alives-marie-rose-sure-interesting-sense-style/

Maybe post later, but for now it's back to Pokemon and breeding...  I'm half tempted to start a 3DS friend code thread just to get more friend safari's open, cause all I got is Fighting, Rock, and Ground...  On the bright side, hidden ability for Lucario and Rhyhorn, on the downside...  Pretty much everything else.  Except Mankey, Mankey is awesome.

Rainday wrote:Oh, worth a mention DOA5 Ultimate is getting a cute trickster Gothic Lolita maid who is actually 18.

Yeah, just like every anime character fetishy fanart on Deviantart. >_>

Rainday wrote:I'm half tempted to start a 3DS friend code thread just to get more friend safari's open, cause all I got is Fighting, Rock, and Ground...

Eh, I'd be up for that.

I've recently traded in my 360 for a PS3 and I've got a few games for it now.  Playing through a downloaded version of FF9, and I've got Kingdom Hearts 1.5 reMIX, Tales of Xillia, and Dragon's Crown.  I forgot who mentioned getting a copy a few months back to see if the female vampires could turn the PCs (might've been Rainday or DoubleEdged).  So far, no regrets on the big decision, especially with FFX HD Collection coming in March.

Wasn't me, I'm still waiting for a big deal on Dragon's Crown before I buy in.

OH THAT WAS ME.  It doesn't happen to the players for gameplay reasons, but it does happen to the sexy maidens you escort.  But yeah, I do love my PS3 considerably more than my 360...  But that maybe because I'm bitter over my red ring and seeing games that I played be upgraded on the PS3(Eternal Sonata and Star Ocean 4).  Speaking of which, you got access to a good backlog of rpgs, hell, I think classics like some of the old Fatal Frames(2&3 maybe?) are up.  Also, there is the Disgaea, Neptunia, and Atelier series...  Though those are usually better bought on the Vita because NISA has a nasty habit of bundling the DLC for the console release and adding even more...  This is also making me bitter since I have the collectors editions of 1,2,& 3 of the Atelier Arland trilogy that I haven't gotten around to yet.  But let's see...  PSN is nice, there are some free themes out there that are pretty nice(Neptunia 2&V have some nice ones for free).

Speaking of Neptunia...
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/21/incoming-info-noire-spinoff-game-vita/

Also, I may try to get into Street Fighter soon(it would be sooner if I didn't make the mistake of thinking the Arcade Edition patch was the actual game... now I need to find a copy for $10...  which I don't have the money for...  I'm being bitter again aren't I?).  Which ties into this
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/22/ultra-street-fighter-iv-shows-ultras-rolento-poison-hugo-elena/
Which has Poison, in which her Supers are really something else.

Let's see, what else did I find, oh, this, new Deception IV screenshots, aka "that is a nice angle"
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/22/use-birthday-cake-deadly-saw-trap-deception-iv-blood-ties/

Oh, and before I forget, Tokyo Jungle, that's a fun game, and cheap.  And from that I can leap onto this, because it's the guy who made it teaming up with Suda51/Grasshopper, one of my favorite studioes~
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/21/ranko-tsukigimes-longest-day-animated-movies-persona-psp-movie-maker/

They've also been doing something with Persona, it may be Persona 5, but there is no proof, and so far all samples from the trailer are of real world locations in Tokyo, Midnight Channel style.

Oh, and despite not having a Vita... I WANT!
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/23/siliconera-sat-placeholder-dangan-ronpa/

Now back to pokemon!  I'm basically power training a Dratini to level 55 so it can get Outrage, which is one of the most powerful Dragon moves, and then breeding him with my Horsea...  Because I both love and hate pokemon...  but mostly to make my Horsea into a UNSTOPPABLE KINGDRA!  And then do something similar for the rest of my team...  Which will take a while, but damnit, it will be worth it when I start checking fools!

Now, as for friend codes...  I think I should lay down some ground rules in general, just to avoid things getting uncomfortable and the like.
1) No group related discussion on 3ds etc, cause boundaries and that's what we have the group and this forum for.
2)  Friend codes are to be exchanged through PMs, just as a little safety and privacy measure
3) Talking about pokemon and stuff on this or a thread created solely for it is completely okay, cause it's a game thread.

For example, I have Pokemon Y, beaten the elite 4, I have a shit-ton of fossil pokemon(generations 1,2, and 4/5, not sure) and Skrelps.  I can get you anything that's in Y pretty easy.

But yeah, if you're still interested, shoot me a PM with your friend code and I'll shoot one back with mine, most likely tomorrow.

Pokemon, catching Dittos so I can easily get the natures I want, but it's still being a challenge...  Other than that, EV trained my Rilou, which makes it the 3rd one that I've gone through the trouble for.  But yeah, it's somewhat but not much of a chore to raise them and hatch them to get a good nature, but hatching is made faster with O-Power...  IVs are...  Well, there's a person who tells you them, and pokemon with good ones seem more plentiful in Friend Safaris.  Oh the bright side, found a great reference for Pokemon nicknames, Kaiju list from Pacific Rim, hehehe
http://pacificrim.wikia.com/wiki/Kaiju

Other than that, I got Super Street Fighter IV, because might as well start somewhere(also, I accidentally ended up getting the patch for Arcade Edition instead of the full game... ... *sigh*).  Oh well, fixed now.  Might be returning to Lollipop Chainsaw soon.  

Might try to expand my collection soon.  Like Project X Zone and Senran Kagura Burst...

Back in the FFXIV talk, I posted a picture of Siren, who you encounter in the main story, fighting off her undead minions.
It's looking like she's about to be implemented as a fight this month, as the final boss of the upcoming dungeon Pharos Sirius.

And then there's Crystal Tower. I honestly don't know if the entire tower is going to be implemented immediately. If it is, you can be sure that Cloud of Darkness will be part of it.

Also, bought Dragon's Crown on BF from Amazon (Let me know if you guys want to trade PSN-names). Not a major deal, but good enough. Also have been buying some games off of Steam. Ys: Oath in Felghana and Dust: An Elysian Tail, might also pick up Tomb Raider Collection (if I hurry).

I really do need to go back to Dragon's Crown... I'm still missing 4 or so pieces of art...  The problem is it became such a party game, then I had that tiff with my friend, and now that that is resolved everybody is playing Pokemon.

Speaking of which, been playing a good amount of Pokemon, most of it is EV training, ditto catching(so I can breed natures), and training my adorable Axew Labrys, into a crazed axe of destruction Haxorus(aka Shadow Labrys).  Still need to play Persona 4 Arena...

And speaking of fighting game, I got Super Street Fighter IV for me and my bro for Christmas... but it makes me seriously consider getting a good arcade stick...  But those are hella expensive, but it would help with other games...(see BlazBlue, Persona 4 Arena)...  but good ones cost $180... but under advise I should avoid the the cheap ones... Plus there's the whole 1 controller 2 people deal...

Another hard gaming decision is do I want a new 3DS XL(with game) to replace my "hand-me-down" scratched small one...  And then, which do I want?  I do kind of want the bundle Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon because A) It's cheap, and B) I REALLY LOVED LUIGI'S MANSION...  Though then there is the Link Between Worlds(aka Link to the Past 2 in Japan), which C) has a nice design, D) LINK TO THE PAST TWO MOTHER F-*ahem*, it's a sequel to a much beloved game and I've heard it's very good.

But yeah, the fight stick/3DS is a either/or thing...  And then there's Project X Zone, which I want to play, but I hear gets boring...  Which I can do...  I've done worse...  I've done Quest 64 for christ sake.  It's also a nice price...

Senran Kagura Burst is getting bought either way.

Oh yeah, and I got access to the Hearthstone Beta(right before it goes into the Alpha, but hey, it's still something).  That might consume a good amount of time, but no money <_<
