Meshugger Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Stop talking and go buy Lost Odyssey, you mugfugs. After the dissapointments of Oblivion and Mass Effect, there's finally a RPG worth playing on the damn brick. Eh? Its a JRPG which you spend more time watching FMVs than actually playing the game. Um... No thank you. Try harder. The "too many FMV's destroys my gaming-experience"-schtick is old, buried and proven falsified ever since the first Final Fantasy years ago. Admit it, turn-based combat with strategic elements sounds interesting, right? Partymembers can learn skills from each other. Boss battles that actually are difficult and where a carefully planned strategy matter. I know it sounds interesting for ya. I know you want to play it, or atleast, try it out "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy
Sand Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Yes, it sounds interesting but I rather play a game than watch a game. I'll rent it first before I buy it.

Kaftan Barlast Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Regarding Lost Odyssey I think its important to know that all anime games stink. badly. Unless you like anime, of course.

IIRC, he accidently caught them in the act, meaning them singing together the karaoke version "Eyes on me" from Final Fantasy VIII. He was never the same.

Krookie Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 More like, at least I can tell the difference between the guy and the girls in this game.
Kaftan Barlast Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 Im just saying that if you prefer some jap manga game over Mass Effect, it's like some gives you the choice between having chocolate cake or a mouthful of freshly squished ****roaches. I mean, sure, there ARE people who like bugs more than cake, but that is the sort of person who belongs in a mental institution.

Krookie Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Ao2 you have BETRAYED me.
Nick_i_am Posted March 10, 2008 Author Posted March 10, 2008 haha, Army of 2 can go screw a rock. The joke about Kaftans hilariously malinformed opinion of Lost Osyssey is that Mass Effect has more to do with anime than LO ever did. You know, with the plot ripped whole-heartedly from one. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
Kaftan Barlast Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 FFS, LO is a jrpg done by some jap blokes who used to make Final Fantasy games. You have to really push yourself to get more anime game than that.

Nick_i_am Posted March 10, 2008 Author Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) Ah, right, yes, being Japanese makes it anime. I mean, this is obviously far more 'anime' than this Because it's Japanese! I had a friend who hated 'anime games' then went off and played Oni. I laughed, much as i'm laughing now. EDIT: I don't give a crap if you hate jRPGs just on principle, but going 'wah wah, LO is animu' then claiming that Mass Effect is any better is pathetic and reeks of ignorance.

Kaftan Barlast Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) The fact of the matter is that Lost Odyssey is a dirty rotten jap game. It looks and smells japanese in every aspect. ME does not, because its a canadian game made by largely canadian people in canada. Sure, they've tried to make LO look less anime than usual, but its still friggin anime. also, anyone who likes LO is a smegheaded tentacle-lover.

Meshugger Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I love that Kaftan refuses to acknowledge that the story of Mass Effect is a rip-off the anime "vandread".

Kaftan Barlast Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 You know how you come to hate a band because its fans are morons? Well, I feel the same about Japan. I dont know the official term for what I call "japanophile", but they are all complete idiots. That, and the fact that Japanse games, music, food, comics, cartoons and most of their other exports is complete crap.

Krookie Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Are you prepared to say that with your hand on a copy of POKEMON RED?
Nick_i_am Posted March 10, 2008 Author Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) I dont know the official term for what I call "japanophile", but they are all complete idiots. Well duh. Wapanese or weeaboo both work as terms btw. For giggles mention to one that your favorate cartoon is 'The Lion King' and watch as they go off on a rant about it being a complete ripoff of a piece of anime. Japan seems to be having more and more influance over western media as the generation that grew up on pokemon gets older. Just look at 'Avatar' which is 'anime' entirely american produced. Likewise, teen titans has taken a distinctly Japanese twist to it. I'm not saying this is a good thing, I miss the cool cartoons (like Thundercats) I had when I was a kid but the influances are there and growing stronger and Mass Effect is a good example of such. In fact, i'm willing to bet that Shepard goes SUPER SAIYAN in the sequal. Edited March 10, 2008 by Nick_i_am (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
