But you got Pain istead. She's just Lulu without the belts.

Actually Square Enix DID market this game somewhat towards girls. Not exclusively of course but I remember reading an interview around the time of the games release that they were wanting to tap into the bigger female audience.

I'm talking about X-2 mainly. I know in X-2 they aren't summons per se but that's why I said summons/limit breaks. They were somewhere in between the two.

I don't think it's really any worse or any better. I just think they had to evolve the system somewhat as lots of people were complaining about turn based and they had to keep things fresh. As much as I like some earlier systems (X especially) I do think that XII maybe had the best (despite overall being a pretty…

Well I think you're right to a certain degree. I think people jump on those things as the reasons because everyone else says that. Band wagon reasons I guess. But I think they can still dislike the game (provided they played enough of it) even if they don't really know the reasons they do. In general though I think…

On the contrary I thought the battle system was very flawed. I credit it as the first step towards non-turn based but the limit breaks/summons were truly awful and flawed. You had to use them lots to level them up to a point where they actually functioned good enough to use. But doing so added about 5 minutes onto a…

Thank you for weighing in on a 4 month old discussion with absolutely nothing new to contribute to it.

Even better in the load up screens with the animation and sound effects.

You haven't heard of PSM before then? It's not exclusively used on mobile phones. It can also be used for development on Vita.

I've only ever played Clash of Heroes, which I understand is hugely different from the rest of the series. Any recommendations for where to jump in with the rest of the series?

You're absolutely right and when the story does originate solely on Reddit I have seen Kotaku credit them as the source. No idea if that is their policy or not but I have seen them mention Reddit as a source many times.

I get how it's not for everyone but I think a lot of people are being too pessimistic about it or (and this isn't you btw!) basing their opinion off of Sony hate. I've explained it to some friends and they've come around to the idea.

But this is The Walking Dead. They can put blunt objects straight through a zombies skull with very little force from practically point blank range! Physics are already absent in this franchise.

The pyramids are actually giant cat ears for cat statues underneath the ground. The Egyptians worshipped them because they thought they were funny.

3 hours is pretty long but easily manageable. It really depends on the individual gaming group whether that's too long or not and whether it exceeds the 3 hours. From people I speak to most of them exceed 3 hours easily.

He's obviously not met From Software then. Or That Game Company. Or probably quite a lot of others.

But how could you have a series with just the war stuff? Especially when the entire war is arguably started because of Lyanna. They can't just leave that out at the end. As far as viewers understand it's a war fought to get Lyanna back. I think there's more to it than that but that's just part of the whole mystery…

I very much agree that he is taking a long time and I also fear for the completion of the series. I will say though that even if that comment about having only done a couple hundred pages came directly from his mouth, it's not entirely true. He's said before that he had at least a few hundred pages cut from Dance to…

I agree that ASOIAF should be his main concern but the guy does need to take a step back from it from time to time. It's healthy for your writing to do that.

You have little to no comprehension of the technical aspects of what you're talking about. This has nothing to do with my reading comprehension. Throughout the numerous replies in this conversation it is abundantly clear that you are very ignorant on this subject but you still seem to be stubbornly fighting your…
