Finally got to finish Undertale after this hectic weekend.  Good game with great characters.

Oh, and I figured this was the reason we got that new costume DLC
http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2015/10/yes_fatal_frames_lingerie_outfits_have_been_removed_from_the_western_version

I kinda expected this, it just a pity... People say it was to avoid an A.O. rating... which I find odd considering you play as one character in their bra and panties about to have sex, or a girl walking around in her towel in Until Dawn... Meanwhile you can't just do that with two girls with no air of sex in the game... It's all just politics because Nintendo didn't want that Sexual Content tag on their game...

Still, I don't mind too much considering we get the form fitting Zero Suit, which is a huge perk in my mind... But I will miss girls cuddling up in their sexy lingerie to sleep...

The recent Dissidia game is being made for arcades. I don't think a console version has been announced yet. I'm hoping for one of course.

I'm pretty sure they said they'd be looking into getting a PS4 release for it one year after the arcade release. Also could swear I heard that the arcade itself is mostly PS4-based tech.

Honestly, I just liked how the trailer introduces Y'shtola at the end by having her save WoL's ass out of nowhere (not bad for a DEDICATED HEALING class).
"Come on. You can't go down yet."
Still though, it looks like it really will be a smaller roster. Arcade getting its official release with ONLY the 14 heroes. They did say they planned on having all characters from Duodecim (possibly minus Feral Chaos), but this still feels like a really small launch. I saw a post elsewhere that it would likely be up to 30-ish characters by the time the console version is released, can't recall if that was an official statement or just fan-theory.

Also-
-Terra voice is based on her personality after fighting Phunbaba.
About time?
And I definitely saw Shantotto channeling some Domina Shantotto there with that scythe move.

Well I was finally able to back Indivisible.  I've seen some playthroughs of the free prototype and will play that soon when it comes to the PS4(which will be the 3rd of this month).  They describe is as Valkyrie Profile meets Super Metroid and that's what it plays like it seems, platforming, access to new areas with new weapons while the action is more active rpg. If you don't know Valkyrie Profile, think of the Tales series, except you control each character with a corresponding character in battle.  Also, the art is great, it's from the people who made Skullgirls, which is one of the best looking 2D fighters out there with very fluid animations.  You even have a female heroine in Anju, who summons other incarnation to her aid during fights.  But yeah, the indiegogo page does a better job explaining it than I can. But yeah, give it a look, at least for the art and animation. The things they are doing with it are rather fun looking, I can't express how beautiful it is

Other that I'm at a standstill in my gaming since finishing Undertale... Trying to decide what to take up next. Chrono Trigger and Xenoblade Chronicles on the DS, Xenogears, Armored Core 1, and Drakengard III on the PS3, or going out and getting Senran Kagura 2 or something else new like Fatal Frame 5(though that would require me to get a new hard drive for the Wii U, I wonder if my friends iomega eGo would work)...  Though if I can get the Wii U back I could start on Wonderful 101, Bayonetta 2, or Splatoon...  Right now I'm letting my bro use the PS4 since he bought Disgaea 5 for it.

Hmmm... Of course I've got plenty of stuff to do here so starting a new game might not be a good idea... *sigh*

In case you need a laugh, or some proof that this is coming along-

Oh, I heard an interesting rumor that Diablo III is getting another expansion... one which you can choose weather to be good or evil~ If that turns out true, that would be pretty awesome~

Now I just need to work up the courage to start Xenogears...

Xenogears

DAMN YOU ROCK PAPER SCISSORS!

That is all.

Edit:

I GOT IN YOUR MIND NPC, MY YOMI IS STRONGEST!

Xenogears feature's a short scene were a vilainess implants a post hypnotic suggestion in Elly, she also possess her near the end of the game.

This isn't a sightings topic. Don't be giving away EXTREMELY IMPORTANT plot spoilers.

That was just a tease I didn't name the villain to avoid spoilers.

AVOIDED!

I understand that I am absurdly late to this game, but thankfully spoilers for it aren't as plentiful as FF7. The only things I do know is what's on this page http://www.beforeiplay.com/index.php?title=Xenogears and maybe something about how the end game map works. Also characters bearing a resemblance to another(and characters in Xenosaga which I did play). But yeah, for safety sake just make sure to put your stuff in the spoiler block and list it as relevant to interest, so you can share that with people who have or won't play the game can see, but people like me who are currently playing it or planning to play it know that there might be something interesting ahead, just not what. I'd really appreciate that.

As for my progress, I managed to play it yesterday thanks to help from meds and got to another animated cutscene. A man in a mask revealed himself to me, and after that I had a "interesting" boss fight against a giant tapeworm. Then I had a interesting dream.

Spoilers up to this point and hypothesis:

https://twitter.com/DFF_Arcade/status/664043002302627840
Doctor Shantotto, backed by the power of the PS4. Damn, she can really creep a person out.

I hear PXZ2 is out now in Japan. Reports are saying Fire Emblem duo arrive EARLY (Prologue chapter 5?). The Xeno girls show up in Chapter 6: You Will Remember Our Names. (wink wink)

That is a protagonist of FF XIV Shantotto is fighting. A Scion of the Seventh Dawn. I don't remember her name though.

Yeah, that's Y'shtola. We've known about her being in since the initial announcement, since she was one of the six characters included in the testing phase. And I could swear I posted the arcade release trailer not even ten posts ago, mentioning her by name.

As for talk of FFXI... They just announced that they are now implementing the final story for the game. A quest that will likely require the clearing every single expansion story, as the heroes from all of them will likely come together to fight the ultimate evil.

... I'm wondering if now would be a good time for me to step back into Vana'diel.

Is this... real?
I mean... seriously, is this real?

WATCH IT!

Spoiler:

Is this... real?
I mean... seriously, is this real?

Oh man, when that music hit my brain refused to connect it. "I... I know this music... it's super familiar... and these stars, they remind me of something what could it... OH SHIT! IT CAN'T BE! *sees title* IT IS!!!!!!!!!!!!! *followed by me shouting OOOOOOOOOOH! x10*

I didn't realize it was part of the Direct. I just heard people shouting shit in other places, and questioned everything, but if you were watching that stuff live... IT'S REAL???

It's really real.  The fact that his limit breaks are his specials that can be powered up is awesome...  Also he used Frog Song as a taunt I think(it will be a lovely reminder of Jemnezmy)... *idea rain in about female nintendo characters meeting Jemnezmy rain in*  OH IT'S TOO POWERFUL! *shakes head* Back to the game.  We got Midgar as a stage with the summons acting as awesome stage hazards it looks like, so that's cool.  I especially like how Odin splits the stage.

Oh, and Linkle looks so damn cute I might have to get Legends if they don't add these characters to the Wii U version, BECAUSE CROSSBOWS AND KICKS AND CUTE TWINBRAID AH I WANT MORE!

I've been hoping they would release Twilight Princess so I could finally play it(my friend got it on the Wii but the fact that they had to mirror everything for right handed people bugged the heck out of me).  But yeah, that ought to be super enjoyable.


EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention this, but if PXZ2 is anything like one, those will be the tutorial missions where you get to play as a majority of the cast before you proceed from your main character's perspective and begin uniting everyone.

Version. Yellow. Blue. Red. Pocket. Monsters. Original. Gameboy.

One of the things I never got to try out since I left FFXI was the Trust system.

There's a welcome back campaign, so I'm using that time to get back into things, then I might also re-subscribe and get the Adoulin expansion.

Anyways, with the Trust system, you're able to create magic clones (called Alter Egos here) of many of the heroic NPCs you've bonded with throughout all of the stories. No cost besides a party slot. Every NPC I've summoned also had more HP than I did (a level 99 Paladin O_o). Limited to only 3 Alter Egos at once for now, but I've learned there's some key items that'll expand that. About to get myself an army of lovely lady clones.

Also, fought this beauty as the boss of Chapter 1 in the Rhapsodies (FFXI END) story-
http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/ffxi/images/b/b0/SirenNPC.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/800?cb=20150516182338
And yes, one of her moves is Entice, a conal-area charm attack. No, I can't resist it myself. Truly soloing her is pretty much impossible because of that; she'll regenerate while you're charmed. You have to have a party, and if it's just you and NPCs, you CANNOT tank her. Another effect of charm is that it dissipates your Trust magic.

*emerges the next day*

...  Xenogears...  wow this second act quickly came to a head...  WOW... I mean, I started the night off with "let's go rescue Magie" and then it was "let's retake Aveh"

Spoiler:

SO YEAAAAAAAAAH.  But I'm liking how the game is proceeding character development wise, we have a good chunk for Fei, and then some for Elly, with Hyu-Citan being mysterious... Then the second act introduces Bart and his crew and it focuses on them so well that Fei falls to the wayside after the first part, but then he and Elly have some moments and then the crescendo... And all this still on 3 party members. This is insane.

... Oh, and there's a dog maining a panel in the engine room AND A DOLPHIN NAMED FRANZ AT THE BRIDGE WHO HAS RECORDINGS OF ALL THE SOUND EFFECTS WHAT!?


But yeah, needed to stop after it game me that save prompt in the black screen. I want to find out what happens next... BUT THAT'S A GOOD A STOPPING POINT AS ANY!

Aaaand now I'm staying the hell away from Xenoblade Chronicles X.

It's not just outfit censoring on Lin. They've removed the breast slider option in customization of your personal character.

What. The. Fuck.
