Haven't seen Legendary Defender, but the redesign for Voltron is pretty dope. Golion is a fantastic design, and it does a fantastic job of modernizing the design. It does, but it's largely among Gen-Xers who watched the show as kids in the 80s, and mecha enthusiasts like myself. Neither is likely to browse this site lol

Sentai and Kamen Rider are usually how I get my practical sfx fix, honestly. The fact I love martial arts cinema just endears me further to them. Don't really watch Power Rangers, though, since by the time Saban adapts it, I've long since seen the Sentai it adapts. That said, though, the last Sentai I watched to completion was Go-Busters. Mecha designs for Sentai have been going steadily downhill, though. It's kind of a shame, since part of my enjoyment for Super Sentai is the mecha.

so how's the first BotW DLC? Worth picking up or should I wait until the second one drops?
-
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm not sure why they call it the Xbox One anymore, they cancelled the one game it had going for it.

Yeah, the new Xeno game is a big motivator for me too, tbh. I hope there's a Switch port of XCX too, but I'm not holding out too much hope- I feel like that game would benefit immensely from the better load times of a cartridge, but I doubt Ninty'll shell out for that.

Replaying Fire Emblem Birthright. I'm not sure what possessed me to say it has a tolerable story. Admittedly, this time I'm playing the game with the official TL, but good lord- how did they make an already mediocre-at-best storyline even worse?
-
lol remember when this topic was thriving and active. Any of y'all bought a Switch? I was going to, but hearing all the issues people are having with the first batch makes me glad I decided to wait on it. Only game really on it is BotW, which is on the Wii U anyway.

Pokemon Sun. I'm actually kind of surprised that I'm enjoying this installment this much- I couldn't get into Gen VI terribly much, and I haven't sat down and tried to finish Gen V. I appreciate that it's basically a Pokemon game that's gone full JRPG, and has a pretty good plotline going, too. Probably my favorite game in the series since Conquest.

Been playing Child of Light on my vita. It's a comfy game.

I remember spreading out some macaroni on a sheet of paper and tracing it to get an outline for a D&D campaign map. Might be worth lookinh into.

Super Robot Wars X-Omega. I jumped through hoops to get this running on my phone, since there's an event going on where Godzilla is showing up. I have nothing but love for SRW and Godzilla, so I immediately downloaded this. It's a fun little game, though it's not the turn-based tactics game that SRW usually is- it's ore of a tower defense sorta thing.

I picked up a translation of the Alliterative Morte Arthure (Arthur's Death) last week at a yard sale, so I've been reading that. It's a pretty interesting read so far, and one I've been meaning to read for awhile now.

the new berserk hurts my soul and my eyes, so I've been getting around to some of the stuff on the backlog. the twelve kingdoms is pretty neato.

So I'm going through my backlog this summer. I beat Transformers Devastation. It was a pretty fun, well made game- though pretty short, even for a character action game. Still a worthwhile game if you like Transformers and/or character action/spectacle action games. I also beat Hotline Miami. Absolutely delightful game- challenging and with a great soundtrack, a fantastic aesthetic, and an enjoyable David Lynch-esc storyline. And then I plunged head first into the sequel, Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number and also completed that earlier tonight. Managed to be even more challenging than the original, though I feel like it's slightly worse than the first game overall. A worthy follow up, though.
-
I wrapped up a hard-mode run of Fire Emblem Awakening earlier, since I wanted to toy with the gay romance hack. pretty amusing romp, though still pretty easy outside of a few of the harder DLC and the last Spotpass map. Also started Mirror's Edge on my 360, which has been a pretty fun game. Gives me motion sickness after playing for too long, though.
-
The only reason I bothered picking up Legacy Collection was because my local gamestop happened to have a spare of the limited edition with the golden Mega Man amiibo. Hear the ports are pretty terrible, so I don't think I've even opened it yet.
-
Felt like watching some Ralph Bakshi last night, so I put on my blu-ray of Wizards. Probably one of my favorite animated films. It's far from perfect, but it's an enjoyable (and somewhat trippy) little fantasy movie. Great inspiration for tabletop stuff, though. Evil Dead is a huge influence on Billy and Mandy, yeah- there's lots of little jokes about it, mainly one character being half-Ash parody, half Snake Plisskin parody. Have you seen Evil Dead II: Dead by Dawn yet? It holds up much better than the original movie, mostly since it's arguably the best horror-comedy ever made. It's like watching a deranged Three Stooges, it's absolutely wonderful. The remake's alright too, but is honestly quite a bit weaker than the original three movies.
-
Black Knights are mostly optional mini-bosses until the end game, where they're just straight-up mooks. But at that point you should be able to handle them pretty handily. They drop great loot if you're lucky enough.

That right there is half of the reason I haven't picked up Fates yet. Other half is that I really don't want to pay ~$100 to get the whole game, especially since (from what I've heard), all 3 storylines start off the same and they branch off at a certain point, and whatever path you didn't get can be played, but as DLC... yeah, honestly, the price is one of the biggest problems with Fates especially considering the Treehouse translation makes an already mediocre storyline even worse. Nintendo had absolutely awful timing with that 'translation', too. It's not terribly hard to get a hold of a downgrade-capable N3DS/O3DS (most on-shelf units have the exploitable firmware), and it's not exactly rocket science to get custom firmware running.
