That would be way too straightforward, and not fit with having two-word names with eight letters each (it’s “Octopath Traveler,” not “Octopath Traveller”).

You’re right, I for some reason thought MK8D had 36, brainfart.

Sorry if I came across as defending Square-Enix, I was just trying to say it was unlikely they’d change the voice work this deep in the game.

This was an English localization, in what way does that indicate cut corners halfway around the world where they were making the actual game?

I majored in linguistics, prescriptivists are literally worse than Stalin.

I’m not saying turning the feature off is the best answer, but it’s an answer, and one that’s far more likely to enhance the experience than a studio rerecording existing audio with better direction. Do you actually expect the voice acting to change between the demo and the release date?

Beyond the new battle mode another poster mentioned, Deluxe allows you to carry two items at once, which completely changes the game from baseline MK8.

You can change the voices to Japanese or turn them off altogether in the options. They have no incentive whatsoever to rerecord a thing, and thankfully voice acting may actually be the least important aspect of this sort of game, so.

The problem is that the mons in question don’t have any “use this move” or “use this style of attack” tasks. Babies are hard to find AND their tasks are based on feeding, catching, and evolving exclusively, which is a huge pain if you’re trying to make a living dex.

Source?

I’m sadly unable to get excited for FE in the waifu era. More power to folks who like the new direction, but for me the series died with Ike, with Awakening being a very fun game that regardless heralded the sea change that has consumed the series.

So goddamned pumped for Triangle Strategy, dumbass name and all.

I love how they said it was the last announcement then IMMEDIATELY showed a dude that clearly didn’t belong in BOTW 2 to rip the band aid off.

“Milking” is a weird designation for more than doubling the size of a bestselling game for less than half the price of a new game.

Huh, caught mine at night so never noticed. Finally got my second Cherubi to complete its stupid fucking dex entry, too.

Their head would only explode if they sucked at grammar, but that seems likely given they’re how you learned it.

Combined with the fact that mass-releasing mons is never even mentioned unless you go to the pasture in Jubilife rather than the far more convenient method in base camps, and the fact that this is a game primarily about catching loads and loads of mons...yeah, it’s pretty weird. They have an item sorting system that…

In slo-mo, tears prickling at his eyes, filled with shame at the indignity.

Point of grammar I’m curious about: when “them” is used in the singular as it is for Sterling, would the word “themself” or “themselves” be more appropriate? I definitely think the former, given they’re one person.

Yahtzee just talked too fast for them to know what he was saying.
