>Luna #3689/b is a wagie now, poor thing could not handle the Zako life
The Life is not for everyone, no shame in achieving stability and normalcy instead.

I picked Luna in Black Ace and Sonia in Red Joker. No third version for Bud.

Maybe in the collection Pat will be allowed to exist after SF1.

>>539170848
I finally got to beat IX on normal mode. The game is ok but i don't get why set it on an alternate world.
Getting the bad ending was a pain, it's way easier to get the normal ending.
I kinda got used to the new Copen but needing a high score to play somewhat similar to what he was is annoying.
Muscle memory has me still reloading bullets.
Getting all the symbols to unlock hard mode was actually annoying, specially since aparently they hid the true ending behind that, i'm probably going to let it in stand by for now.
I wish we got a blade game instead.

Yep.
They had the perfect opportunity to make the Not!Zero game to their Not!X spinoff. The fact that iX2 may very well be Copen's last outing as nothing more than some botched zero-but-shit game is just painfully tragic.

>>539171851
You don't understand, he's weaker than Gunvolt.

>>539166868
They do. That's how they genocided the human race.

>>539171851
iX was never Copen, though. He's iX. They're pretty emphatic about the distinction.

>>539177458
Natsume is extremely neurotic and thinks the Gunvolt team is copying his gameplay ideas with Kirin (they weren't) and feels like his projects get neglected in favor of Gunvolt, among other things

We know all this because he posts it all on his personal twitter

>>539177458
After the iX2 Jason dlc he seethed a bunch that his work was now associated with what he described as "an ugly world", and recently he had a short melty that GV3 supposedly stole his gameplay idea for Majogami along with some seethe thag company resources went into that game instead of his, or something along those lines.

Hard choices.

>>539179596
Always bet on nothing

So Star Force, Tribe On, or Noise Change?

>>539179867
I feel like noise is the only one that makes sense within a setting so focused on radiowaves

>>539179867
Noise Change > Tribe On >>>> Star Force
Star Force is just a glorified version of BN1 elemental armors. DX Star Force is Tribe On without Double Tribe or Tribe King.

>>539180291
The Star Force makes sense with the space theme they were going for in the first place, being constellations and all. But Noise does that and more.
Tribes are the weirder ones because out of nowhere they wanted to make UMAs, OOParts and other schizo stuff the central theme.

>>539180437
My big issue with SF is just the lack of cohesion, really. First game focused on constellations, second on UMAs, and third game uses card game suits?
All I can think of is that they probably realized pretty quickly after SF1 that they'd run out of constellations people know, and just said fuck it, we ball.

>>539180642
>they'd run out of constellations people know,
But the fuckers didn't even complete the Zodiac.
It could be that they were worried about that but how is UMAs not also a very limited concept if you want widely known ones?
As for cards, it's always a cool idea to make card based enemies but yeah, it comes out of nowhere.
I wonder what other bullshit they would have come up with in SF4.

>>539180883
If hacking and Geo being a wanted criminal was going to be the major theme of SF4, I wonder if they had just run around with the concept of famous (or fictitious) cops and robbers.
Or just something entirely off the wall like greek pantheon.

>>539181128
>greek pantheon
Apollo Flame doesn't need to be in a third game. Also i guess constellations aren't greek only but i can't help but associating them since the most famous come from their mythos.

>>539172591
They're doing a new revival of an old IP, which will obviously be Fritos 2 since the original came out in the 90s. Trust the plan.

>>539180883
>It could be that they were worried about that but how is UMAs not also a very limited concept if you want widely known ones?
The thought process could very well be along the lines of:
>Well shit, constellations will run out
>What if we use something else for SF2?
>What if it's a recurring theme to always to use a different theming from game to game?
>Brilliant, ship it
In a longer running franchise something like that could be considered cute, but in a series with just three games (that came out in a pretty short timespan) it can come off as indecisive.

>>539181794
for me it's the sound effect that plays when you fail the sword catch QTE at the end of the game
that sound effect for getting diced kind of plays in my head whenever I see someone getting bonked

>>539175105
Low pre-order numbers for Majogami, if I had to guess. I don't think people are quite sold on the idea yet, frankly the game is quite ugly and so far it looks like a dumbed down version of GV3.

>>539181794
That was the help. You're nyaalcome.

but the people have two questions
1. Why the fuck is SF2 still split into 2 versions rather than 3
2. how flat is too flat

>>539182049
1. Pokemon
2. Pokeball

>>539182049
Probably backlash for being too greedy by having 3 versions in SF1, but they already had develop 3 by the time they made the choice.
Flat is justice.

>>539182164
>>539182308
I mean in the collection

>>539182334
Oh right.
They didn't bother combining the versions for BN3 in BN collection, so I guess they just didn't want to bother. Maybe a bid in trying to get people to play the different versions and populate the online, even if for a brief bit.

>>539182334
Probably CrApcom were too lazy to split Zaurian into it's own. Or maybe they didn't want to fuck with the code in case something important would break.

>>539181916
>I don't think people are quite sold on the idea yet, frankly the game is quite ugly and so far it looks like a dumbed down version of GV3.

Which has been further fueling his anger, because he's seen Inti fans say exactly that and has raged on twitter about it. Because he thinks arc chain was his idea (which is bullshit, the idea for a warp slash has existed atleast conceptually since the GV2 days) and is mad that it got used first.

But instead of taking advantage of having a working successful example of the gameplay concept with GV3 to work off of, he's stubbornly stuck to what amounts to an inferior version of Kirin

Basically Natsume is a petty retard

>>539182459
BN3 was two separate versions though
>>539182501
I've played SF2 and I still don't understand why there's 3 versions split into 2 games

what are games are in the Brother Action RPG genre

>>539182549
>BN3 was two separate versions though
Sure, but I'm saying that the version differences for BN3 are small enough that you could reasonably combine them into two. Maybe make that player can't have a copy of folderbak and the other giga at once, like some NPC holding onto one while you have the other.
BN4-6 at least have something more of an excuse since the soul/link navis provide different boss battles and forms, but BN3 and SF1-3 I don't think there's enough justification for the version splits.

>>539182703
>you could reasonably combine them into two
combine them into one, meant to say

>>539182671
Mario and Luigi Saga
Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Curse of the Crimson Elixir
Mega Man Battle Network 1-6

>>539182703
That's true, especially if they're allegedly rebuilding the engine anyway, they could support an extra style. But that also changes the possibilities of the navicust. In any case, not a big change.

>>539182049
SF2 being in 2 versions is for the purpose of the Auto Brother, which takes on the version you didn't select. This allows you to utilize the Double Tribe mechanic even if you don't have a real life brother.

>>539179867
It will always be Star Force. No question. I'll only like Tribe On for just Tribe King, but Finalized... Nope. Should have made Harp Noise into a Finalized because it would have been too broken as a Basic Noise.

>>539183476
good
this deserves to get into a collection before OSS

>>539179596
>Even Natsume in all his hate for the Gunvolt games knew exacly what to do with Roro

>>539183710
>this shit again

>>539183710
>implying that's a positive?

>>539182542
I think the main issue is that it's decribed as a "2D character action game" but so far they haven't shown any kind of scoring or ranking system or told us if the combo counter does anything at all. So you have what seems like a really OP attack and apparently no reason to not play the game like a retard. Also the counter gimmick for the bosses sounds pretty weird on paper heh, skipping phases with a QTE is never a good thing for an action game.
TLDR: Release the demo.

>>539183961
my sense from kuon is their weirdfuck games will be weirdfuck

>>539184402
All Umbraclaw needed was to be harder, the gameplay was pretty straightforward.

>>539185060
die to get abilities was weird RNG and also the leveling system was strange

>>539185162
The abilities are just like cyber-elves/prevasion/anthem/image pulses, crutches that are pretty much worthless once you know how to play.

more like starFARCE

>>539182549
>I've played SF2 and I still don't understand why there's 3 versions split into 2 games

It's for the Auto Brother so you can use Double Tribe without a real brother

>>539188936
we are all going to be brothers... right?

The alternative is being M*rians so...

>have to selfdoxx to become brothers
wait FUCK

>>539189962
is this confirmed?

>>539189962
>God dammit, it is all 3rd worlders!

>>539190003
is that not the case for nintendo friend codes and steam as well? idk

>>539190095
Ideally, it would be some code you can use to add friends without directly adding their nintendo/steam accounts. How was BNLC online handled? Was there some framework to add people without having their steam account?

>>539176805
>>539178000
God, I hate that this falling out is happening. God, I hope this turns around. God, please...

>>539181916
That doesn't sound like something "the top brass shouldn't be saying."

>>539182542
>>539183961
I mean, the game does look like it's got a ton of heart. The art, character designs, and writing of those little twitter posts have won me over pretty well. All it really needs in my book is to also be a good game, and I dunno, I think it can manage that.

>>539183961
>I think the main issue is that it's decribed as a "2D character action game" but so far they haven't shown any kind of scoring or ranking system
but that's a point in favor

>>539193638
This thing happens a lot in any company, let alone Inti; do remember how much the staff hates iX1 for how bleak it is, even when the ending is pretty hopeful.
Natsume is just one of the rare type to air his grievances in social media, corporate culture be damned.

>>539194326
Ah yes, my favorite way of playing DMC is spamming Rebellion's Combo A over and over again and dying multiple times to every boss. Collecting every stone trophy in Bayonetta is what action games are all about.

>>539193638
None of this "heart" matters if the gameplay is as dogshit as it looks like thus far, if it is it will end up just like Umbraclaw did. Demo will make or break this game (unless it's like SotD, in that case bunch of sales at launch followed by massive backlash).

>>539194386
>do remember how much the staff hates iX1 for how bleak it is
>hates the game where the hatred and bloodshed finally ends
I sometimes wonder if this company genuinely likes anything.

This means another thing these days looking at how Rattys have used all forms of media against the servbots.

>>539196823
The anon is talking out of his ass, hatred for iX1 is merely inferred from staff hating GV2's "happy" ending.

>>539196823
They're just like us.

>>539196845
So much hatred.

>>539194386
I can't tell if that's a good or bad thing.

>>539196812
I disagree.

>>539190040
I wonder who has more rule63 art, X or Zero in the MMZ series?

>>539193638
He's been publicly seething for so long over retarded shit on an account Aizu knows it's his it's painfully obvious the only thing keeping him at Inti is Majogami, once the game releases and whatever planned updates are done so is he with the company, regardless of whether it succeeds or bombs.

As much as people glaze starforce 3, there's a fair number of questionable writing decisions on that game. I can barely call King the main villain of that game, Joker did a better job filling that role

>>539201828
people rightfully glaze starforce 3 for its gameplay. the story is just good, nothing more. starforce 1 is the best story in the megaman franchise

>>539190365
BNLC used codes randomly generated to enter private trade and battle rooms, there was no need to add anyone to steam friends for public trade/battles since it just search for people online, Starforce used a similar method back in the day.
And Friend codes in DS were nothing more than a way to connect two or more systems together, it didn't allow any other info to be shared

mmmm... crumbs...

King does stand out cause compared to the previous two villain who were given sympathetic motivations for their actions, there is no such redemption for King, he is unequivocally evil. He's like Weil in the sense that of just how far he is willing to go for his own personal gain.

NTA but yes. They were getting infiltrated and subdued and were on their way to get subverted by a Korean terrorist group named Megalia. The only reason why that was found out waw because one of the sleeper agents inside refused to make a sexy bikini alt for the summer event...on a gacha.

>Day 3 of the Luna vs Sonia second war

Fake Ciel, what an idiot, no wonder she's about to die.

She's just got her fucking gun in the air, anon, calm down.

>>539241065
This has mild Call of the Night energy and I'm completely here for it. Save this skin setting, Aile, it's good.

Guy who has only [played] [Azure Striker Gunvolt] [game]: getting a lot of '[Azure Striker Gunvolt]' vibes from this.

>She's just got her fucking gun in the air, anon, calm down.
there are people in this general who unironically think G cucks was a gunvolt reference

>>539246417
What nonsense. Gunvolt didn't invent evil bastards exploiting supernatural children.
>G cucks
Fuck you.

I don't know any idol songs by name because I'm not an embarrassing weeb; I'm just here to talk about Mega Man, and the only Idol presence in the series is a spinoff of a spinoff-AU. I guess there was an idol episode in the BN anime, but that was filler shit, and the anime is an abomination as a whole.
The whole exploitative, fake culture of Idols is kind of lame, even if characters like Sonia, and Pop Step are cute. the latter is cuter outside of her trashy dumb idol getup tbqh

And yet you're here.

>they censor the hand-holding of SF3
Or would you just pick shirt automatically?

>>539248317
Unfortunately, I have to share a bed with loathsome ESL otakus that paradoxically only know of a handful of animes series, if I wish to discuss Mega Man in a non-pozzed place.

>>539248645
Don't worry, anon. The feeling's mutual, though not with the same words.

>>539246948

Man, Athena looks so good. I should play these games again. And by that I mean play any of them beyond the first.
>Some of the contents of the games in this collection are presented as initially released to preserve the games as originally created.
What does that even mean?
