In this case, Mario being the blessed, right?

Sexism isn’t even in video games. Tropes? (Damsels, gritty-old-male,ect) deffinitely. But it’s not sexism; it's what story the devs wanted to tell you. One thing I think could use improvement (since devs are getting pressured to include them) are gay characters. Devs don't know how to write a gay character because…

Kishimoto kinda cheated on the power skip with the introduction of the Kage Bunshin training method, which gives Naruto wayyy to much power jump. Actually even after the time skip, the power was still growing in a reasonable pace up until that point.

Or he could not just go surpise all those people you thought where dead i’m bringing them back.

I think that really depends on if you watched it in Japanese or in English. For the Japanese actress, I totally agree, she did an amazing job capturing his emotional range. The English one... less so.

aka being Japanese.

I get that secondary characters basically became massively outclasses following Pain. We had some surprise ridiculous people though like Guy. I liked the start a lot when Shikamaru took down Hidan the side characters had a lot of promise.

Thank you, I was starting to think I was the only one.

RNG killed me. You are the best sir(lady?)

Yeah, my god. I tried playing through FFXII so many times, and I just get so bored with it. Where’s the character growth? 40 hours in, the characters are almost exactly the same as they started.

I don’t get why people worship this game so much. It’s basically a shitty FFXIII,, with an added illusion of choice, because…

It’s very possible to have great looking skin even if you have some unlucky genetics going on, you just need to work a bit harder for it and find the right products to use.

I agree. It’s another world. Not all fantasy worlds are going to have similar fashion trends with mid ages Europe.

so? I have a wallet chain

Sigh...sorry...it’s wonderful to believe there aren’t leagues but of course there are...go online and put up a photo of a fat successful dude...averagely successful average dude and a failure of a hot guy...then email 1000 women with each and just see how many emails fat successful dude gets in compares to hot…

I suggest you read the article again if you don’t understand why in fact the only professional thing to do in this situation is to recuse yourself from coverage of the title due to fears of perceived bias.

Yeah, so Totalbiscuit’s initial tweet was totally rational and reasonable. He didn’t call the game terrible, he simply said it wasn’t for him. The response from the developer was kinda’ out of line.

If you want to talk about how ratings boards need significant change if not outright removal, I can get behind you, 100%.

If they remake the game I hope they keep the art direction of the character art instead of going with the more realistic proportions of Advent Child.

I still think Nomura’s best work was on FFVII. Simple yet effective character design, nothing too outlandish (by modern FF standards at least).

If anything having it be ultra-violent would appeal to kids. Robocop Effect?
