Well yeah, but besides all those reasons, WHY? It looks so cool...

Also, to add to your argument: Boobs.

Ash has a lot of heart though. I imagine, in universe, the grand majority of trainers don’t get more than a pair of badges, if any at all. The games skew this perspective as you always become league champion by the end.

I see this refrain a lot, and it’s often said without any irony. How do you make a character have a certain trait because they *should* have that trait? Say you make a black character that HAS to be black. Well, what about them makes them black? Do they parrot Black Lives Matter slogans? Do they bring up slavery?

What…

I see a lot of Azure Dreams in games like Stardew Valley. Not quite there - but it’s got a similar thing going on.

I’d like to pop a shout out to Lufia I too, which completely spoils the ending to its own sequel! Really fantastic game with a lot of heart though.

I also have to wonder if anyone else remembers a game called Vay. I have fond memories of digging through that one, but never see it mentioned anywhere.

There’s also a…

It’s the best Final Fantasy game not named Final Fantasy. I sometimes like to squint my brain and pretend it’s FFXIII instead of that abomination of a game we got.

It’s not too hard to understand though. Hollywood wants their movies to have a mass market appeal so they change a bunch of things to help capture a market beyond games. What they never seem to figure out is that these changes often don’t capture any other market while simultaneously they alienate the markets that are…

“And then just as our Avengers our fighting at the airport these giant capsule pods rain from the sky...”

“No... no, don’t tell me...”

“That’s right, it’s the mother fuckin’ Ginyu Force.”

Slow down there chief. Propensawhat now? Propane? Sounds like ya got some that book learnin’ yerself. Ya can get right on outta here with that!

Fuckin’ right! AMERICA!

I knew that because I had watched the movie.

“I would apologize for the hitting you with a spoiler here, but nothing has been spoiled...”

I wonder how that figures for canon.

I wish they would just announce this game already. How many trailers do we need to see before it’s official? Come on Activision, we all know it’s coming!

There are a couple of things wrong with that idea though. 1. If the world was unaffected by the outbreak you can bet they’d be sending their own military in to set up ‘safe-zones,’ to try and either contain it, or study it. Probably both. At the very least some U.S. official would make contact and request support.

Do tell me more about this real life. I’ve not heard about it. Does it release soon? Maybe it will pop up at E3? It sounds pretty cool.

Matchmaking on everything. The Division has that. I don’t understand why Destiny won’t follow suit.

If your new hero is basically going to be another version of Kratos, why not just go with Kratos?

She, didn’t do either of those things...
