    With so many of you guys praising Fallout, I may give it a watch. I never been into the franchise. I've tried though. I bought Fallout 3 and NV during Steam sales, just didnt' grab me. That said too many people with usually disparate opinions online agree that it's good. Which gives me an X-Men 97 vibe.

    I own P.N.03. The game was mid to be honest. I found it disappointing. The game play is/was odd and I never would have made a correlation between Vanessa Z. Schneider and Eve. I may be misreading the tweet. If it's just referencing the design okay, I can see it. However the action style of P.N.03 is nothing Stellar Blade.  P.N.03  was the least of the "Capcom 5" games that released. RE4, Viewtiful Joe, and Killer 7 all rank about it. Pour one out for Dead Phoenix though, I was really looking forward to that one back in the day.

    Did Fallout 76 ever get fixed? I read the dismal reviews it had upon launch

    Honestly don't know. I just remember laughing at it having bugs from Fallout 4 that fans had already fixed via mods in it. To be that damn lazy... IIRC the same fix from Fallout 4 worked Fallout 76. Since it was online, it limited how much bullshit Bethesda's QA team...erm fans could fix.

    I'm bummed you guys are playing on PC because I actually tried to jump on and get some games and this game is legit dead online 😞

    Sony raising PlayStation Plus to $80 was the last straw for me. I don't play Destiny 2 anymore and with the advent of crossplay I buy fighting games on PC now. I can't tell you the last time I actually played one of the free monthly games you get. I wasn't giving them free money.

    This is perhaps a good time for capcom to try to re release the old mvc games and marvel games, with Xmen 97 bringing those iterations of the characters to the limelight again.

     

    Or even better, MVC4.

    I still think that they will be better making a vs game with just capcom chars, but Xmen 97 shows there is interest on those characters, and it could be a good excuse to bring the games that have never had a good port, like CotA, Xmen vs Sf, Marvel vs Street Figher and Marvel Super Heroes have a collection of sorts game. (And I am not even a die hard fan of those games.)

    MVC4 is out. UMvC3 on PC with Tabs and Calikingz mods 😉

    I would accept that with open arms as long as she was a normal person by SF standards

    I actually made an Ingrid concept a few years back that did that. I only did it because I have so much respect for @Miðgarðsormand he's a fan of Ingrid. If this man can translate lore from multiple languages for the story thread. I could put the time and effort into an Ingrid concept. Also he helped me with the Icelandic. He's to languages what @CESTUS IIIis to character creators. The best.

    @AriesWarlockOh man, I forgot that Chun Li tomfoolery. That was so damned silly. 🤣

     

    @MillionXHalsin wasn't originally supposed to be a party member. He was so popular during early access that they turned him party member. It's why his class is redundant. You realtively early into the game with two druids. I wish they would have had a Bard origin character. Or a Bard party member in general. I always found that strange.

    Well because as has been pointeed out multiple times people only take issue when you aren't making them sexier. It's why no one e takes issue with Eves hips being wider then her shoulders because they want to stare at a fat ass no matter how goofy it looks 

    It is comments like this that make it hard for me to take you serious. People have been taking issue with Eve because she's "too sexy". What you said in bold is just a lie. So I'm going not talk to you about this becuase your continue intelluctual dishonesty makes it point less.

    I'll take an Ingrid over Rufus.

    Rufus is one of the few characters I'd take over Ingrid. I'd take Oni and Evil Ryu over Ingrid. I would take any SF character over Ingrid.

    You never got "why does it matter" for Birdie because it's a drastic change. It's understandable if people are split on his look.

     

    The shit these face-gaters are on is not drastic at all. They're acting like it's Birdie in SFV when it's not even close. That's why you get "why does it matter" there.

    It didn't get a why does it matter because Birdie is dude. Let's be honest here. If an existing fit female character showed up overweight anyone said something about it the discourse would completely different. "Why does matter" "You are fat shaming" etc. would be tossed around ad anaseum. Stop being disengenous.

    Dunno how many people catched the cameo

     

      Reveal hidden contents

    Not at first, but it was poined out by quite a few people. Which was the hint that everything was about to go sideways for those that caught it on their first viewing.

    One of my main issues is that his gameplay felt dull on SFIV.

    And to a minor extent, that his song was annoying as fuck, lol.

    I didn't like his gameplay, his look, his voice, concept, etc. I liked nothing about him. The only positive thing I can say about Rufus is that he isn't Ingrid, Evil Ryu, or Oni.
