@xianc78 i think there is a difference between "appealing to western tastes" and taking inspiration from western themes. silent hill is another good example of a game that is inspired by the west but isn't doing what sakurai talks about. the article mentions silent hill f with the director talking about how he feels that silent hill had become too westernized (which it really had been post team silent), so he wanted to change the game's setting to japan in order to get some of that japanese feeling back.

that being said, i have never played startropics so i'm not exactly sure how it relates.

@matrix i've only played ac2 and bloodlines and that was over 10 years ago at this point so i don't remember too well lol. just kind of a weird choice.

assassin's creed shadows, even in english mode, does the whole "keikaku means plan" thing where the characters will sometimes say random words in japanese and then it'll provide an english translation in parentheses. bruh, if you're playing it in english why not translate the whole thing? i can understand leaving certain words in that don't translate to english as well, but when it's just "father" or "tomb" that's kind of cringe tbh.

FUCK YEAHHHHH
i was so disappointed when their 2020 show got canceled and was just telling my roommate about that last night.

MY GOAT!!!!

@LukeAlmighty @Mr_NutterButter unfortunately i'm not that much of a show watcher :P i still haven't even watched season 2 of nagatoro yet....

@Mr_NutterButter @LukeAlmighty never watched it or played it, just like the designs and some of the songs are cool too

out of all the vocaloids/utauloids, i think teto has the best voice. i like gumi and flower a lot too.

My roommate is doing a packet so he can graduate. It's for world history. I came downstairs to see there was a question about where the term "bloody mary" comes from. I knew it off the top of my head, it was from Queen Mary I who was notable for executing people all the time. This packet though says it comes from Queen Elizabeth I executing Queen Mary Stuart. Threw me for a massive loop and I had to look out) everything up to make sure. There are just straight up incorrect dates there too.

I can understand why he's so pissed off at it all the time, it is confusing as shit and has straight up incorrect information in it. This is just a SINGLE QUESTION and I got hung up on it for half an hour. Told him to just jump through the hoops lol.
