Unchained X is decent so far, not like there's much to expect out of a mobile game.

Did anyone download it?

[spoiler]And both of them also make fun of the fact that people react to other people's videos which is basically stealing other people's content, which is a serious problem now.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]But that would mean no more Retsupurae. D:[/spoiler]

Sakura Leic · **Reply #1501 on:** April 09, 2016, 08:43:45 PM

[spoiler]While Retsupurae might fall into that category I don't think they are much of a problem compared to the other hacks out there, especially since the videos they riff on are really terrible, don't have a lot of views, and don't have a lot of effort put into them. So they may actually be helping the videos they riff unintentionally despite making fun of them since their videos get more view, though they may get an insurge of comments making fun of them too. The other people are stealing though and riding off the coat tails of more successful Youtubers.

Not to mention this problem affects game trailers, cartoons and anime too, every time you search for something like that there's about 5 react videos on the first page. So yeah it's becoming a huge problem now.[/spoiler]

So it seems that Birth By Sleep Volume 2 really did get reworked into this KH3 prologue demo and there's actual gameplay involved. A Ground Zeroes / Episode Duscae situation as we all speculated.
[spoiler]Also surprise Terra.[/spoiler]

It's not a demo.

[spoiler]If I know this series, it's probably not Terra, but actually a mirage to keep her confined in the darkness.[/spoiler]

I almost want to say that this can't possibly be the case since that would be the logical thing to do narrative wise and thus make too much sense.

But yeah I hope that's what it is.

The Drunken Dishwasher · **Reply #1505 on:** June 10, 2016, 12:07:09 AM

The real surprise for me is that KHUnch Back Cover is going to be a movie using the KH3 engine!

I honestly thought it was gonna be a nice visual novel with beautiful images and voices, but nope! a movie!

I like that!

As for Aqua. HNNNNNG SHE LOOKS SO GOOD in that engine<3

Phi · **Reply #1506 on:** June 10, 2016, 12:33:25 AM

I hope Aqua's voice is better in this, because she sounded extremely bored in BBS.

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #1507 on:** June 10, 2016, 06:01:04 AM

She still seemed pretty bored in that video.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #1508 on:** June 10, 2016, 06:05:26 AM

Yeah she does sound bored, not as bad as Aerith in KH 2, but it's noticable unfortunately.

Oh god don't remind me-how did that performance get past any sort of quality control.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #1510 on:** June 10, 2016, 06:53:52 AM

I know right, it's especially bad since Aerith got some of her old sass back too, and the Voice Actress ruins it.

As someone said it's like she did the voice acting while she was on a Skype call while recording that.

Yeah, KH2 Aerith probably has the worst voice acting I've heard in a game. Ever.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #1512 on:** June 10, 2016, 07:09:00 AM

Well nothing can beat Chaos Wars but it's up there.

I'll throw in some Trouble Witches NEO! (which is sadly no longer available on XBLA) and Castle [of] Shikigami II, BECAUSE SOMEONE ELSE MUST KNOW MY PAIN.

Shizuku could pass as a drunk woman.

That is the only salvation I can find in that video.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #1517 on:** June 10, 2016, 09:04:21 AM

You know what the sad thing is? The game is actually good and is considered a cult classic, but no one knows that because everyone only ever mentions the terrible voice acting. I mean I've never played it but I find it sad.

I think the rumor is that the guy in charge of the localization didn't want to shell out the extra money for proper actors so he had his family do it, particularly since the 'actors' all have the same last name......

Yeeeeah that VAing was pretty painfull.

ViperAcidZX · **Reply #1519 on:** June 10, 2016, 05:11:40 PM

I feel the same about Trouble Witches NEO! and Castle of Shikigami II since they're cult classic shoot 'em ups (Castle of Shikigami III at least got a kind of better dub than II). I'm not sure who to blame though for Trouble Witches NEO! being an Engrish trainwreck, SNK or Active Gaming Media (at least Grolla from Rosenkreuzstilette and Elma from Chantelise were in the Japanese cast). It's almost like Resident Evil all over again.

This is why a dub should never be done by a small enough localization company that they had to hire their own family members and friends.
At least it's dual-audio, but that still leaves the bad / literal text translations (and completely [tornado fang]ing up character names for things like Shadow Hearts they could've easily googled to check).

VirusChris · **Reply #1521 on:** June 12, 2016, 12:17:32 AM

"It's idiot power!"

OK that line cracked me up.

I also think this VA for Farleen in SO3 was a little... too much squeaky?

SO3 Ending - FaytxNel

On topic I honestly can't get into the KH3 design... I don't know if it's the lightning or something but while it's impressive and beautiful it doesn't look like a KH with that "darkish" hue on the models. Well the gameplay is amazing and I will enjoy the game when it comes out, but I do think KH2 is still the best looking KH game out there and KH3 is below that graphic-wise for me.

Phi · **Reply #1522 on:** June 12, 2016, 12:40:04 AM

KH3 is still in development, we'll see how it looks in the end.

Back Cover actually looks a bit more complete, in terms of lighting. That being said, KH3 can't be below KH2 when it's factually superior on a technical level.

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #1523 on:** June 13, 2016, 01:41:23 AM

LOL 2.8

The retread / recycle continues...

Might actually play it though, since I hated the 3DS hand cramping while playing DDD, and I dropped it quick.

Phi · **Reply #1524 on:** June 13, 2016, 02:01:13 AM

You should, because KH3 will be hard to understand without DDD.
