Following your logic, there must have been a lot in Last of Us that "wasn't integral to the piece":

[Mattias]

Probably was. Or at least it wasn't important enough for them to risk sales by leaving it in.

[LegalLoliLover]

The irony is that there are classical art pieces that do make for good fap material.

Spoiler:

(NSFW for artistic nudity, apparently)
On the other hand, Last of Us 2 will never be good art or good fap material:

The other bit of irony is that despite having nudity in the manga, if a manga was originally conceived as ecchi, there is a higher chance that nipples will safely transfer over to the anime adaptation. Meanwhile, if a manga only has "circumstantial nudity", the anime version will often use a lot of steam/light/hair or just not draw in the nipples.

I have lots of nostalgia for BN, especially 3 and 6. I hope they release a collection soon.

I've never played Battle Network 6 before but a lot of people like, so I'd love a chance to play it.

[LegalLoliLover]

So in terms of games that I'm not playing:

New trailer & release date for NEO TWEWY (27/07/2021):

Nice to see the returning faces. I was a little worried it wouldn't directly connect to the first game.

Seems like they even got all the old VAs back to which is awesome.

Sho's VA has only done like 3 roles in his life according to BTVA so I'm very pleasantly surprised to see him come back for this. Hopefully that means the rest of the returning cast will too.
I wonder if the new teams setup was decided by Joshua after seeing Neku's friendships growing with multiple partners.

Question: Assuming that really is Neku at the end like Rindo calls him, did Neku ever say in the first game that his orange hair was dyed? Because it's clearly blonde now.

I think that might just be a lighting issue.

Anyways, been re-watching the trailer more closely and have noticed a few details. The "mysterious girl" from the ending of Final Remix is blatantly Tsugumi here and she still has Mr.Mew which is odd as he's supposed to be the creation of Shiki's sewing hobby so there shouldn't be multiples of the doll. The Shinjuku Reapers don't appear to have wings like their Shibuya counterparts do. Sho Minamimoto is on the MC's team interestingly despite the fact that Coco deliberately revived him in order to be Neku's partner.

Curiouser and curiouser...

[Reign]

Shoka also has a Mr. Mew hoodie. I assume Shiki just became a fashion designer like she wanted and made a Mr. Mew product line.

[hayate]

And they will release sections of RE8. Might be late, but here we go



Made me want to buy the game just for that. Looks like they succeeded on where FFVIIR failed. Hats off to you CapCom. Made me a fan of Morrigan Aensland from Darkstalkers, now this.

[LegalLoliLover]

Might hold off on SMTIII, then: https://limitedrungames.com/products...428747bd&_ss=r

[Skull]

You know, because I love this franchise so much I'll even double dip for the games even though I already bought and played them in JPN on the 3DS.

[pinetree]

Hell yeah! I hope they bring the rest of the games too, I only played the original Trilogy and Dual Destinies.

[weeblord]

finally

[NMR-3]

So I saw there were "escapades". I wonder if they're like the DLC cases in Dual Destinies and Spirit of Justice.

EDIT: Oh, jesus, same release date as NEO: TWEWY? Why do you have to do me like this, Capcom?

[Skull]

Huh, and here I was starting to think the game would never come out. :O

[Mattias]

I don't know about Arise. It hasn't really done anything to grab me. It looks pretty, and the combat is smooth but there's nothing that really make sit stand out.

[Skull]

Man, rewatching the Ace Attorney trailer a couple dozen more times, and it's very refreshing to hear British characters voiced by actual Brits again. That was such a novelty back in PLvsAA and I'm so glad they did it again with this game.

maybe you just need that some female protagonist abs *wink
