i think it strikes a good balance overall between the genre’s early members like Star Fox and Panzer Dragoon ect,

@Thanotos Omega  
Yeah, I think it looks cool, and the checkered ground looks reminiscent of games like Sega’s classic “Space Harrier.”

A Cyberpunk 2077 anime has been announced. It’s being done by Studio Trigger.

@Holofan4life  
The game isn’t even out yet. It’s risky to put all their eggs in one basket.

@Holofan4life  
Our boys at Studio Trigger be gettin’ a lot of side jobs from random western game dev teams, what the hell.
 
@Scrabbleman  
I think that’s actually their attempt at diversifying. If the game flops, the anime hopefully wouldn’t. Unless it’s an anime for marketing the game, in which case you’re right.

@tehwatever  
It’s called ‘finding your audience’.

I hope people don’t come out of The Last of Us 2 with the impression that you can’t make unlikable characters likable. You can. With good writing. Good writing can make the most detestable of characters sympathetic. It can be done.

@Holofan4life  
I loved Rhodes in Day of the Dead. He’s about as unlikable as you can get. I don’t know if anyone finds him sympathetic,but you can understand how he thinks.

@Holofan4life  
Good point, just like how bad writing can make the most inherently likable characters seem like people you’d want to murder.

 

@icey wicey 1517  
Yep

@icey wicey 1517  
aren’t they technically clones?

@Angrybrony
 
In the same way Sora and his dozen or so (rounded down) Sorta clones are, yes.

Favorite villain songs. Go!
 
They can be from anything. Musicals, movies, TV shows, concept albums, you name it. Just tell me your favorite numbers from your favorite baddies!

Yzma’s unused one from The Emperor’s New Groove was a sad loss. Macavity the Mystery Cat is a good one… Second Rate from Return of Jafar… Rasputin’s from Anastasia… I keep thinking there are ones I actually liked better that aren’t coming to mind right now, that happen to anyone else?

@TheHappySpaceman  
Rasputin’s In the Dark of the Night,Mean Girls,the 4kids Witches theme from Winx Club, the Para Para Boogie,from the English dub if Dragonball GT,Dolla Dolla,Bandora’s song from Zyuranger,the Fushigi shigi Fuuma Villain theme from Shaider,and I’m sure I can think of more.

@icey wicey 1517  
I still haven’t seen that film. Do I need to watch seasons 6-9 of the show to understand the movie?
 
More importantly, did Daniel Ingram outdo “This Day”? That’s my go-to MLP villain song.
