this was the Citan guy right
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 03:50 PM
Yeah he sure fucking is
archaeo
05-Mar-22 03:50 PM
oh yeah no this is a very Citan move
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 03:50 PM
I knew what I was about when I was making that joke but even I was taken a back by this
archaeo
05-Mar-22 03:50 PM
I also got a distinct Auron vibe, who is just a Citan subtype
15:50
hot take
15:51
kinda just wanna play xenogears again lol
15:51
when do they lovingly remake that game
15:51
when do I have enough money to hire all of you to remake that game for me
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 03:51 PM
I hadn't really considered it but this game does have a real Xenogears vibe
(edited)
15:51
I had mostly been joking about it at the start but it's borne out
15:52
I'm not saying it's going to that level of insane
15:52
but it's playing in the same sandbox
15:52
using the same legos, as it were
archaeo
05-Mar-22 03:52 PM
I mean it's even got the Xenogears arena
15:52
which you have to imagine that at one point they were considering making into the actual game for the gears battle
15:53
lotta mechanical bones on that game for the amount of actual game they got to
15:53
rip
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 03:53 PM
rip
15:53
real talk I'm taking a minute because I am actually kind of upset lmao
15:56
Ovan: Okay watch this I'm about to do what we call a "Pro Gamer Move"
LettuceKitteh
05-Mar-22 03:56 PM

really bad
for Atoli basically the entire time I was playing
15:56

Proceeds to tear into peoples deepest insecurities with scalpel-like precision
archaeo
05-Mar-22 03:57 PM
yeah for real
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 04:24 PM
There is a cutsene where Atoli teleports to The Wall we've seen a few times now
16:25
16:25
We hear Ovan's voice. Apparently he told her this at some point
16:25
16:25
16:25
He is
Still
at it
16:27
Yata has summoned us
16:28
Haseo is in no mood for this lol
16:28
God I am TIRED of these glasses people
16:28
16:28
gasp
16:29
16:29
They ALSO noticed that Atoli saw Skeith during the fight
16:29
Haseo: Why didn't you ever mention this to me? Yata: You didn't ask lmao gottem
16:29
16:30
Haseo: You're a real Bastard Yata: Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment.
16:30
real dialog
16:30
Haseo: Where is Atoli? Yata pulls up a screen
16:30
16:30
16:31
16:31
16:31
16:31
16:31
16:31

this game is full of menacing glasses guys
16:38
just being dicks
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 04:38 PM
I love whenever Ovan and Yata interact because it's a menacing glasses guy off
archaeo
05-Mar-22 04:39 PM
they just need one more

Rean Super Smash Bros
16:41
(someone obviously made that)
16:42
(though just as obviously it's not the superior character Rean Coldsteel, who wears glasses and cares about every little life in the world)
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 04:52 PM
okay I think that's enough leveling up, I'm ready to do the final boss
archaeo
05-Mar-22 04:52 PM
nice
16:52
wait what
16:52
already
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 04:52 PM
oh btw it's time for the final boss
archaeo
05-Mar-22 04:52 PM
this whole game is really just
16:53
"you win a tournament, then final boss"
16:53
dang
16:53
after all the little lives, this is brisk
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 04:53 PM
I'm only 20 hours in
16:53
it's a pretty brisk game
16:54
I've been moving fairly fast and rushing side stuff, the rerelease cuts down on grinding a lot
16:54
Symbol looks angry
16:55
16:55
We touch the Angry Shape

Haseo: why are you even looking for Tri-Edge?
archaeo
05-Mar-22 04:57 PM
okay this is the weirdness I can get behind
16:57
white void, what look like the lockers for...a railway station of some sort?
16:57
maybe a bath house
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 04:57 PM
Atoli: You said I was iritating, that you hated looking at me Haseo: I uh...didn't mean it like that...

16:58
/ damn, atoli
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 04:59 PM
Haseo: "Stop calling yourself an idiot" and he touches her shoulder. The Tuning Fork sound happens

Neat graphical effect where he teleports around leaving like, Matrix Green Code afterimages behind him
17:04
we beat him but
17:04
17:04
17:04
17:04
17:05
He Data Drains the enviornment around us to heal
17:05
17:05
archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:06 PM

Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:06 PM
He becomes something akin to an avatar
17:06

archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:09 PM

Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:12 PM

17:12
17:12
17:12
17:12
17:12
and he explodes

Good end to a game
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:13 PM
suddenly they hear a creaking sound
17:13
17:14

.hack//GU - Gentle Hands
17:17
And that's the end of Vol. 1: REBIRTH
archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:17 PM
/ Haseo better get a new outfit in the next game because the current one isn't good imo
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:17 PM
he does
archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:17 PM
good
17:17
I preferred "shitty belt twink"
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:17 PM
Please look forward to "Vol 2: Reminiscence"
(edited)
archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:17 PM
over "my asshole holds my greatest sword weapon"
17:17
thanks I'm looking forward to it
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:18 PM
where hopefully things start going better for Atoli
archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:18 PM
I doubt it!
17:18
volume 2: not historically a time for things to get better
17:18
"Gentle Hands" definitely has the softcore energy I was expecting from the title
17:19
/ it's a pretty JRPG credits track
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:19 PM
my recollection is that Vol 2 is the best of the three and it is what you would expect it to be--the darker middle entry
archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:19 PM
sure naturally
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:19 PM
I love the three themes for the trilogy
17:19
They all have a very distinct energy
17:20
The wait between these games at the time of release was, you could imagine,
hell
17:20
thankfully it was only like, 7 months between games, give or take
archaeo
05-Mar-22 05:21 PM
that's not bad at all
17:21
imagine deltarune coming out on that pace
Shaiapouf
05-Mar-22 05:21 PM
god, if only
17:21
I am kinda curious what the dev cycle was like cause
Go to next part
