yeah he's admitted as much
the devious part is realizing he has no side, he'll spam vankid and then when the tide changes be the one mocking the vankid spammer, same with reanspic and skybab and reanasis and literally every gimmick
he just uses whatever he can find to try and ruin /fg/ because he's a maladjusted egomaniac that got his pride bruised over Cold Steel not being what he wanted and now won't rest until he sees Trails dead
but it won't die so he just gets more and more unhinged

You can’t win fights against trannies because they get turned on and enjoy invading spaces they are unwanted in. They get off when people get mad they voice act real video game characters, they like they you are angry they are in the woman’s bathroom. It’s an unbeatable task.

Kai 2 will be Their Game and there's nothing you can do about it.
>>
>>556130552
Japan's the most important market after all. Can you believe that he brags about the chinks loving Estelle?
>>
>>556131051
It's evidently not the most important market if we're to believe your narrative. Why would they shelve everything and focus on remakes if Sky 1st failed in "the most important market"? They're with 100% certainty working on either 3rd or Zero after Sky 2nd, not Kai 2, which will happen when it happens.
>>
Even the devs wanna work on the remakes more.....
>>
>>556129894
It's always funny to me how many of these sexy girls are virgins. Like Rixia is 100% a virgin
>>
>>556131403
>Why would they shelve everything and focus on remakes if Sky 1st
They never did this. When Kai 2 comes out next year will that be proof enough to BTFO you?
>>
I think the thing that pisses me off about Calvard the most is how bad it represents returning characters.
Fie is fine, I guess, except why the fuck introduce Aida if Fie isn't going to share in that plot?
Zin and Walter are braindead morons who just love to punch each other for fun.
Rixia is an absolute distaster.
Kevin regressed to his Sky SC personality for some reason and broke his promise to Ries.

I was surprised Rean didn't go back to self-loathing and reflected his character progression in Reverie
>>
I don't think anyone is looking forward to another asset flip. Gimme Xanadodo. Or whatever new IP they're cooking up.
>>
>>556132628
Delusions aren't proof of anything but your own mental illness.
>>
>>556132797
Fie had her BODY ruined by HAG TITS....no one is safe.....
>>
It's okay, this year they get Sky 2nd and then maybe a random drop for 3rd at some point and then that's it
Skybabs will leave forever again
Let them have their pity year
>>
Seriously though, what they did to Kevin strikes me as a fundamental misunderstanding of his arc in Sky 3rd.
The problem wasn't that he was taking heretic hunting missions perse, it's that he was taking the most dangerous missions seeking to punish himself and maybe die
In the Gehenna section of Sky 3rd, he is proud of killing Owen and Weissmann.
>>
>>556132916
It'll happen to everyone eventually...
>>
>>556133008
>he is proud of killing
This is why they changed it. No chuds allowed.

>>556133208
You mean the legendary Eastern assassin Yin, known in Calvard as the Demon of the Eastern Quarter (Langport), is featured in the Langport chapter of the Calvard arc? Insane...
>>556133269
So it is an ego issue, now you're coming up with insane delusions you can't back up
>>
>>556133621
yeah its not like there were like 4 games of character development from that or anything...

>>556133621
>So it is an ego issue, now you're coming up with insane delusions you can't back up
Falcom's outsourcing is factual. It's sanctioned fanfic. Nigger, they forgot Kevin existed in CS3, lmao. That's how well the writers "know" their characters.

>"My intepretation of character is thus:"

I'm never sure whenever someone might go off on character assassination solely because they've either created their own absolutely unhinged headcanon, or they are disappointed in some facet of their iteration. The ride never ends.

Wasn't that picture of the Gralsritter without Kevin from Daybreak?
>>
>>556123367
>lowest estimate for Sky 1st is higher than the highest estimate for Daybreak
Not a good look for Calvard
>>
>>556134318
Haha, if you could read you'd know that your link ends with "uh other studios do it it's no big deal". The credits are there, black on white. Outsourced dogshit writing starting with Cold Steel 3. Even the new quests in Sky 1st were outsourced.
>>
>>556134376
it's always unintelligent ESLs that can't really grasp the text so they fill in the gaps with their own headcanon
Their lack of intelligence makes them overly emotional creatures so when their headcanon is challenged they start eating bananas and throwing poop around
>>
Kevin literally broke his promise to Ries and retroactively ruined the entire resolution to Sky 3rd and the point why they shot Ghost Rufina together
>>
>>556134526
Oof, do yourself a favour and either read the link so you understand how stupid you look or stop simply stop engaging in a topic you're clearly ignorant about
You are just making yourself look REAL bad here lol
>>
>>556133008
>The problem wasn't that he was taking heretic hunting missions perse,
Did you ignore the child he killed that made him bedridden for a week that he lamented became common practice for him? Or when he was talking to Weissmann in Gehenna that he became the church's dog?
The heretic hunting was making Kevin cast away his humanity, play the games. That's why Gehenna Weissmann tells him that he can solve everything by doing so.
>>
>>556134715
At the end of the day, these studios and their employees are credited with "Scenario/Event Script" in all the games. Not "event script." This is another reality your mind can't handle. Very embarrassing. And to think the desire to touch children isn't your most broken quality, Mondy.
>>
>>556134850
You're anonymous, how can you have an ego when your identity is not attached to these posts? Is it because you know? You know you failed. Anonymity can't shield you from yourself.
Is that it? You can't let it go because you judge yourself harshly. You know you failed today. So now you must find a way to twist it around so disqualify your failure. You can't simply stop engaging and move on. You must prove it to yourself that you aren't ignorant. But you know you are. You know.
>>
>>556135065
Here's the thing. That's all in your mind. There is no ego. It's some strange delusion concocted in your broken mind, likely brushing up against your legitimate sexual attraction to children, Mondy. Non-Falcom employees are credited as scenario writers and event script editors across a large number of games since 2017.

Now you're beefing with the guy that humiliated you via a post from 4 years ago. You think I'm him for some reason. And are bringing up weird children fantasies completely unprompted.
Your brain is panicking. You are anonymous and the archives will never store your name. Only your posts. Your humiliation. And that's all it takes to ruin your day. You knowing that it will be forever there. Your ignorance on full display for all to see.
We won't know it's you. But you will know.
You always do. You know.

No, no. YOU know, Mondblut. You know. You're a middle-aged pedophile spending all your time posting on 4chan. From the moment you wake up until the you go to bed. You know. You won't stop knowing. This knowledge will haunt you. When you have a that brief moment of lucidity, you will know.

Killing the kid being turned into a demon isn't even a heretic hunting job...
As for "Damned dog", Ein calls herself that and she's not the Heretic Hunter.

Don't think you can schizo your way out of linking to your own posts, Mondy. You're a known quantity here. You've referred to your /fg/ posts on twitter and vice versa for a number of years. You know. You're nearing retirement age and still you spend all day and all night here. Actually very sad.

>>556135768
You're clearly detached from reality. This is my last post of the day. Not that it will stop you from spending the next 16 hours accusing random anons of being me and Mondblut. And whoever else has traumatised you.
You can't ever win an argument. You have to rely on insane unhinged conspiracies. You know you do. You know you are addicted to the humiliation. You know you are a very unintelligent person.
You will go to bed today fully aware of the pathetic failure you are.
I will never know your name. But you will forever know your actions here.
Now, have a good day. I'm out. You know I'm out. You know that won't stop you from accusing others.
You know what you are.

>>556136170
Mondblut, you're fooling no one. Not even yourself. You're a lolcow. You will spend all day, every day schizoposting on this website while edging to things that'll damn you. You know, have known and will always know. That's the only thing that matters. And you know.

>Killing the kid being turned into a demon isn't even a heretic hunting job...
It was. Kevin was going against the cult at the time and stumbled across the child that they had transformed into a flesh eating monster. He had to put him down after nothing worked to save him. It was a direct result of his Heretic Hunting duties which Kevin blames himself for. Then he further goes to say that situations like that boy became commonplace for him as the heretic hunter.
The heretic hunting exposed Kevin to so much pain and suffering that in order to cope he became more and more detached. He was punishing himself for his past by continuing to heretic hunt and expose himself to these things.
If heretic hunting was never a problem for Kevin, why do you think he changed his title?
>As for "Damned dog", Ein calls herself that and she's not the Heretic Hunter.
Weissmann calls Kevin a damned dog in SC and he completely agrees with Weissmann and laments that he's the heretic hunter. Then it's when he's able to use his stigma's light side that Weissmann gets proven wrong in 3rd.
What you fail to understand is that blaming himself for the deaths of Rufina and his mother is what caused himself to isolate himself as the heretic hunter, but it was the heretic hunting that was chipping away at Kevin's soul. His guilt is what he used to justify letting it happen.
>>
>>556136340
It doesn't. This isn't actually a general meant for discussing the topic. This is a general for people who once played the games to hang out, and it's primarily kept alive by a handful of broken people rage baiting each other indefinitely. One poster in particular views himself as the heart of the general and thinks he's a shitposting chameleon, despite reality being that he's the most blatant poster here. Misery is the point of /fg/.
>>
>>556138736
>The thing that Kevin never ever says he regrets doing is the thing that is actually destroying him inside
He doesn't show any regrets for killing Owen or Weissmann, nor however many cult members he killed, only the child (for obvious reasons).
The reason the Heretic Hunting missions were hurting him is because they were essentially suicide attempts
>>
sex with jorda
>>
>>556139020
I thought the issue was fan translations splitting the general, but when games without early translations like Ys IX, X and Sky 1st came out, no one discussed them. It was just the usual hostilities. The only time this general is actually engaged in anything related to the games is when all 5 regulars watch Chinaman stream games in a language they don't understand. You'll never get the engaged /fg/ of 2017 - 2020 back, when people played the games and discussed them and that drove all discussion.

Ironic shitposting cultivated an environment for people not in on the joke to poison with their misery, and that's all that's left. We could get a Kai 2 global release tomorrow and it'd still just be business as usual here.

This line essentially shits on Kevin's entire characterisation in Horizon.

And the localisation is actually accurate here
>>
>>556140428
No one would argue in good faith that they handled Kevin well in Horizon.
>>
>>556139384
What you seem to be missing is that heretic hunting is more than just killing bad guys. Situations like that child became commonplace for Kevin and it ate away at his soul. It exposed him to the worst things in Zemuria.
Say if Weissmann had a laboratory full of human abominations beyond salvation that he created. It would be Kevin's job to kill them all after.
That's why being the Heretic Hunter hurt Kevin so much. It wasn't the assassination missions, it was everything in-between. And he believed that he deserved it all because of Rufina and his mother.
>>
>>556140854
I think this
>>556140428
is the counterargument. Previous games already stated the understanding that Heretic Hunting =/= being "The Heretic Hunter"
>>
>>556140428
We needed to wank Swin and Nadia so Kevin regressed in order to allow the kids to force Kevin to go through his character arc again *laughs*
>>
>>556141609
From my perspective, Kevin killing people isn't necessarily a problem. It's that Kevin is regressing back into the Heretic Hunter mindset where he doesn't want Ries to be involved. Kevin regresses into the Heretic Hunter in Kai.

Anyway If it's not just a cohencidence I started to believe that this is a script given to LLMs. "you are x with opinions y and z, you need to constantly make up drama to destroy divide and deflect discussion about subject."

Apperantly in several /v/ threads other /vg/ anons visited falcom threads and explained they are aware of several schizos who act this way, and then you have schizos like barneyfag, ack, etc who have been either known or assumed to be using bots. it doesn't seem impossible.

Now that we have Rufus, is Lloyd necessary as a protagonist? Rufus is everything Lloyd is but better. He's cunning, tenacious and while lacking in talent he makes up for it with willpower and effort. Rufus has outsmarted fighters way stronger than him while all Lloyd can do is scream or whatever. Lloyd can, at best, join picnic squad as a second in command or moral compass.
>>
>>556165332
>Zemuria being a walled garden.
That's why Zemuria being a simulation was such a common theory. Probably won't happen now though. Not sure if you can do both a time loop and a simulation. That's just power creep in twists. Would the GM have to sit through thousands of loops for every simulation or can she just put it on fast forward?

They kinda do if you payed any attention to Rufus' backstory. He himself admitted to being ordinary and unremarkable. He pushed himself so he could help his adopted father. The trope of a plucky ordinary guy going against superhumans is easily filled by Rufus.

That might be the case but nowadays i just look at him like a scheming fufufu like Cao.

>>556166761
Lloyd coming from humble beginnings makes him much more normal than a noble from the four great houses of Erebonia. He's not a plucky ordinary guy. He wanted to transcend his own humanity and now he's an incredibly wealthy man who plays butler to a doll.
He's not like Lloyd in the slightest.

>>
>>556167340
Wrong! Stop larping cs. Rufus is 100 percent a commoner and would have been better off not being held captive as the bastard son. Everything special about him came from effort, he doesn't have noble bloodline or inborn talent. He's handsome, ruthless, tenacious and incredibly cunning/perceptive. The only thing lloyd beats Rufus in is corny speeches and his odd obsession with barriers. Jobbing too, there hasn't been a single moment from cs to now that Rufus has jobbed. Lloyd is the very definition of fraudulent
>>
>>556167819
>Rufus is 100 percent a commoner
Wrong. The whole thing in Rufus' backstory is that he was treated much better than Jusis despite Rufus being born through an affair with Helmut's brother and Helmut's wife, he was a pure noble unlike Jusis who was a bastard with commoner blood. That's what makes him question everything. He's a pure blood noble unlike Lloyd who's just some guy. Truly, he's a sad sack with daddy issues. The entire reason he started to work on himself was because he wanted to impress Osborne as he saw Osborne as a new daddy. He's not a regular guy at all, he's a freak born from Erebonia's nobility system.

Final Arc Showdown. These are the characters that should show up. It's because we are going to the Church and Bracer's hometowns and obviously the East.

>Liberl
Estelle, Joshua, Scherazard (Guest), Zin, Agate, Tita, Kevin, Ries
>Crossbell
Lloyd, Rixia, Tio, Wazy, Kea, Arios
>Erebonia
Rean, Towa, Fie, Gaius, Altina, Crow, Sara, Toval
>Calvard
Van, Elaine, Shizuna, Renne, Risette
The others not mentioned can be guests but they aren't going to play a huge role.

>Liberl
Cut all of them and only do Estelle, Joshy, Kevin, Ries, and let us play as Cassius too.
>Crossbell
Seems pretty close to what they'd do.
>Erebonia
You could make an argument for Kurt due to Cedric, and Ash could fit too. Olivier is 100% going to be in as well. I'd cut Towa but we all know Falcom is going to shill her and the Zemurian UN as the ultimate endgame for the world.
>Calvard
There's no way Agnès doesn't latch onto Van and follow him where ever he goes since she has no real goals in life other than being his cockslave, so she'd be in too. The picnic niggers will also be in since Falcom's writers are obsessed with forcing them down your throat.

Crossbell, Erebonia and Calvard need Elie, Alisa and Agnes. Zin and Schera can be dropped from Sky, Arios can be dropped from Crossbell, I'd probably cut Sara from Cold Steel. Risette can definitely be cut from Calvard as she'll be irrelevant past it, and Elaine might not necessarily show up much.

Wait I change my mind. The Sky crew and Class VII have giant airships to themselves so expect both casts to return in full + some extras like Anelace and Duvalie.
>>
>>556180419
Also adding the Kuro cast because of Vans car.
>>
>>556180171
It depends on if Alisa shows up in Calvard. If she doesn't then it shows Falcom might have stopped forcing their main girls if they're not popular enough. Meaning that Elie and Alisa might be doomed to irrelevancy. Saying that, Elie has a better chance of surviving for now purely based on her having to show up in Calvard when Lloyd does to follow up on her father.
>>
>>556180384
Its better then Kuro II thats for sure at least it actually moves the plot in its final chapter and even has that one section with Lloyd
>>
They better bring back the car from Azure.
>>
>>556180714
So Elie's confirmed to backseat in the cuck chair during Lloyd and Rixia's sex scene in Kai 2?
>>
>>556180171
Alisa is going to show up if we go to Ored. Basically the headquarters of Marduk. There's going to be a global science symposium so basically the tech heads and presidents will be a part of it.

>act 2 reminded me that Cao is one of the worst characters to get fucked over he was such a villain by in the early games hell CS4 made that clear when he fight Estelle and the gang here? his just a good guy now with no hidden agendas? I'm convinced that 90% of the new Falcom staff is chines and they don't want a chines man to be another Rufus if you know you know
Yeah I'm at this part too and Have ZERO patience for his nonsense now when is he going to be an actual villain? and you know? villain stuff?
>>556172812
That shit amounted to NOTHING LOL

Alisas tits must be bigger. She also must have a shorter skirt. These are vital to the Grandmasters plan.

>>556180886
being better than kuro 2 is not an achievement

Cao should have been the eastern version of Rufus when Rufus was antagonist in the erebonia arc sure his a good guy now but at least at one point he was a antagonist who is Cao lee exactly? just a fufu man?
>>
I am tired of Rufus and Swin and Nadia. Specially the latter 2. They are fucking unneeded. Falcom just wanted to showcase kids that got fucked over again.
>>
>>556182264
Cao is sadly part of the effect of the poor planing of the Calvard arc Falcom had no idea what to do with him and Heiyue in general
>>
Now that agnes is gone, would EL PRESIDENTE still bother with the startaker plan in the 20000th loop?
>>
>>556182264
He's the main villian for a potential Eastern arc. He also exists to say "oh there's stuff going on over their? This world feels alive!"

I meant more in the role of what Rufus had in the Erebonia arc not as single villain but apart of group of villains since Falcom already built up tension between him and Aaron

There nobodies in any case he should have been working with Hamilton who at this point has more war crimes then any other antagonist in this franchise I don't see how she will be forgiven for the shit she did but Falcom will find ways I mean Ian grimwood isn't jail by the end of reverie

>>
>>556185181
I mean Kondo even admitted that the reason things have such a template feel and that they constantly reuse things is because they have an ever revolving door of writers and with this many games is impossible to keep them all up to speed and keep things consistent. What Kondo doesn't realize is that trying to keep everything consistent is whats killing the games because they all feel the same now.
>>
Falcom is releasing Sky 2 immediately because they can make players reinvested again just in time for the final game for Calvard. They know what they are doing.

Also helps Calvard has the better women. Except for Feri, Nadia, LP, and Agnes.
>>
So how much are we betting on Latoya being spared as some tragic heroine? I loved Osborne and it made a bit of sense (as far as I remember), but Latoya either is going to be Le sad backstory or forgiven because of Quatre and shit... I really want them to go the full route of her being killed

it’s funny how cold shitters get mad on behalf of japs for calvard being “woke” despite the fact most of them are south american and will never be Japanese AND despite the fact that a truly woke game is something like persona 5, the series their shit arc tries to ripoff.
persona 5 challenges a lot of conventional Japanese societal rules, at times for the fuck of it

>>556185549
Nu-Falcom writing is so easy to identify that you're immediately reminded of how bad it's gotten even when playing the Sky 1st remake despite the original script still being present and largely unchanged.

Takeiri and Konda (not Kondo) are credited in most games, but they're the only consistent names throughout the series. That just highlights how they were hard-carried by the other writers in past games who didn't show back up. Crossbell and CS1 and 2 have the most amount of non-returning writers.

Replay the games, jusis while a bastard is still a noble, Rufus is both a bastard and technically a commoner. Their dad was such a cuck. Their mother was a commoner but jusis was from the union of another unnamed noble and Rufus was from her and commoner.

I'm replaying cs 4 right now. If you're lying, my foots going up your ass. No way, that'd suck if its true. The irony of the Rufus being the noble jusis looked up to being nothing more than a commoner. Thats like poetry, the reverse is just ass.

Not everyone has refreshing veil and there's turn/time limit bosses out the wazoo in the garten.

>>556198710

Nina having a connection to the pope makes sense and could help expand the world because we know very little about the pope and haven't met her yet and it makes sense the head of the church would take a direct interest in her but instead Falcom think tying everything back to an established character is better because "DUDE REMEMBER 3RD????". Rufina wasn't even a Dominon why is she so important? She's important because we have fond memories or 3rd and they need to give Kevin something to do. And the fanbase enables it because they basedgasm at every single mention of a character from a previous game no matter what it is. That's how you end up with Calvard where everybody just automatically knows everybody and the world feels the smallest that it's ever been.

He and Lucrezia are the biggest wasted potential of this entire arc. I keep coping that Falcom will actually let them do shit in the next game now that Ouroboros don't have a pact with Gramhart anymore but I know I'm just wasting my time. Falcom has such an enormous problem where they don't let these kinds of villainous characters actually do anything villainous. It's the same reason why Cao is so shit. They'll spend 50000 lines of dialogue telling you about how dubious and bad all these guys are but they will never actually do anything on screen because they're so deathly afraid that someone somewhere possibly won't like them.

What went wrong with Falcom? Ever since after Ys 8 it feels like each game they've made had less effort than the one that came out before it. They've forgotten so many fundamental things about what a satisfying JRPG is. Was it a change in staff? A change in their company culture? What happened?
>>
It's time to admit CS1 was the pinnacle of the series
>>
>>556214853
After CS1 and 2's success, they started making excessive use of outsourcing for games released since 2017 and started making their games hornier to cater to people who'd buy their cosmetic DLC. That's why their pre and post-2017 games feel like they were made by a different dev.
>>
>>556214853
The success of Ys VIII and Cold Steel made Falcom complacent. It made them think that their shit didn't stink and that no matter what they did people would just automatically buy anything they did regardless and that they didn't have to try to appeal to their fans anymore. So they starting farming out more and more of each games development to increase their profit margins. Now they want to release 2 full new games a year when they can barely even deliver 1 without it being rushed. They stopped giving any kind of damn about the actual quality of their releases.
But Kondo doesn't realize that a company like Falcom lives and dies based off of its word of mouth reputation. They don't have the money to make up for their laziness with fancy marketing. If they piss enough people off the fans will leave. They need to remember that the fans are the ones that will promote their games for them but they aren't going to do that if you take every opportunity to shit on them by delivering mediocre experiences.
It's become clear that decades of developing nothing but Trails, Ys and the occasional Xanadu has just completely dulled their developmental senses. All of their games just feel the exact same now. They have no idea what a game or a story is anymore. And this is the company that supposedly prides itself on being "storytellers".

>>
>>556215417
They really have turned everything into Trails. Al their games since Cold Steel 1 have been the same, and I mean all of them. They've only made CS1 - Horizon, Ys VIII - Ys X and Tokyo Xanadu. Every single one of these games have the same exact structure and notebook progression elements. No exceptions.

Just take a look at all the different games they made prior to CS1.
>>
>>556216305
Yeah they've completely homogenized their entire output in the last 10 or so years. Current Ys just feels like action Trails at this point. Tokyo Xanadu 2 will just be more action Trails. They're so addicted to their fucking templates for everything they forgot that each series is supposed to have its own identity.
>>
I hope that Kyoto Xanadu will be a Persona-level game, and just as long.
>>
>>556216468
There's no end in sight for the Falcom template. They've convinced themselves every game has to be 80+ hours long. They could easily let a smaller team develop a short Ys game in the style of the Ark trilogy.
>>
>>556119394
QUESTION: what does this "reduce blocked damage -50%" mean for Rean's Divine Spirit buff? Does that mean he TAKES half damage, or that less of the damage he DEALS TO MOBs is mitigated by their defense stat? Does that mean I am supposed to put smaug and scent on Rean and have him be the tank in melee range and get juiced up on CP, instead of having him stand far away with the Recluse quartz while Crow evasion tanks and counterattacks with his double saber that has a reach of 2?

I don't understand why unchangeable guest characters are even a thing. They fucking sucked back in Cold Steel 4 and Falcom fixed the issue for Reverie.
>>
Even Bergard deals 200k+ every turn WITHOUT a strength buff and chain effect bonus. The final boss has 2.3 million HP. Bergard gets 4 attacks in a row which then stuns the boss. Even more if boost doesn't run out. This system was designed by monkeys.

It's been a never-ending cycle of buckbreaking bosses in the series ever since then, so it's not like i'm particularly livid that the games let you break them in half.

Holy fucking glaze. You sound like Richard from sky 1. Cassius doesn't even clear Aurelia. She surpassed steel maiden, who could go toe to toe with mcburn. Though that statement is up for debate, as steel maiden is more than her strength. She's immortal and has a divine knight and divergent weapon.anyway Cassius doesn't have the strength, equipment or intelligence to defeat mcburn. Aurelia or rean? Pic related is Cassius if he ever fought the goat

Cassius wouldn't even get into a fight with McBurn in the first place. He'd manipulate the situation so that all of the pieces would fall into place favorably for him. He's the master strategist that defeated the Empire when they had taken over nearly everywhere in Liberl. If McBurn was around he'd find a way to douse McBurn's fighting spirit and cause him to lose interest.

He'd "find away" thats a funny way to say he'd turn liberal into a crater. Makes sense, this "master strategist" couldn't even protect his family despite his brilliance. I'm sorry but there aren't any strategies that can control or manipulate mcburn. If he wants something he takes it, if he wants to destroy something he does. All you can do is run and hope you aren't his target. There exist one man who can face mcburn head on and live. That's rean fucking schwarzer. If you don't believe me, replay cs 4. Or 3 even.

All you have to do is make him not want to fight anymore. We saw throughout Cold Steel that he'll let up if it doesn't seem like it'll be any fun.
So the solution is really just Cassius talking to McBurn and as long as Cassius stays true to his word that he's not going to fight him, McBurn will just get bored and leave.
>There exist one man who can face mcburn head on and live.

Unbelievably faggy boss. Visual AIDS everywhere. The rocks can't damage you, but they push you around and cancel your jumps while the boss spams 4 alternating energy orbs in arcs based on your last position. Easier than the version in Oath on Inferno, but harder than everything post-Origin.

Somehow I am not surprised. My point was that race is established in the first game, but since you are clearly a retard that needs his hand held through a story to pick up on subtext you were not smart enough to figure out that “white people” exist, or that the term could be used.

As i said before, stay stupid

Nobody said there weren't white people before, dumbass. It's just rather telling that no race was referred to by its real world term except in Daybreak, and only white people, and in the same game that won't shut the fuck up about white supremacists, isn't it?

Why did everyone forget my flat wife Tita's contribution to the space race? She launched orbital weapon platforms into orbit before it was cool!

Pants are better than skirts at showing off a women's ass. That's why it seems like all Female NPC bracers got good cake

Long story short, bad guys were gathering mana for big robot, Millium got captured but freed herself, Gayuis showed up did and nothing at all, Cro-I mean Sexfriend showed up and did nothing and nothing happened. But Duvalie did blush for Rean so this was a welcome trip.

this describes 95% of all trails game chapters

Remember, Reddit and Gamefaqs likes Horizon, so anyone who dislikes it are contrarians whose opinions dont matter.

but even in SC when nothing was happening atleast Estelle almost got fucking murdered by Walter or had a flashback of her past, all I did here was find an island with a big robot on it.
