Thread: The music of Zelda |OT| Hey, Listen!

I saw Ballad of the Goddess posted earlier, but this is also one of my favourite tracks from Skyward Sword: And a nice cover I came across a while ago:

Thread: The music of Zelda |OT| Hey, Listen!

Thanks for making this thread. Call me biased because of my username, but I feel like Wind Waker has the best overall OST. :P Ocarina of Time is probably close behind for me. Pretty much every Zelda game has a great soundtrack imo, though. One of my favourites from BotW: It really works well with the surprise and excitement you feel the first time you come across one of these guys.

Possibly my favourite Zelda soundtrack. I teared up a little when I visited Rito village in BotW and heard it play.

I just logged in and got the last 1000 dusty tokens I needed (and 600 to spare), yay. That was easier than I thought. I'll try to get all of the furniture from treasure chests as well. I'm happy I played the game before the servers went down. This has been a cool experience. It feels really good when you see someone else was able to find a treasure chest based on your picture hint, and when you get a photo review.

I haven't been doing very many side quests at the moment. I kind of feel like doing them later after I beat the game. Am I missing out on a lot by doing it this way? Lol. I need to try this.

So I have a question about getting dusty tokens. I just drew with someone in a challenge and got 0 dusty tokens from it. I already sent this person a challenge earlier and vice versa. Is that why? Not sure if there's a cap on how many you can get from the same person per day. With the challenges the best thing to do is to do the battle one in the marketplace and only defeat one Nevi. Then let the time run out. Send it to a friend who understands that they should either do the same, or lose so that you win (if they don't need the dusty tokens). I have managed to get around 500 today from doing that.

Kat and Raven return in Gravity Rush 2 to embark on another dizzying adventure where sometimes falling can feel like flying. With her astonishing gravity powers at hand, it’s up to Kat to uncover the secrets behind the strange gravitational waves sweeping across Hekseville under the shadow of an immense gravity storm. Experiment with Kat’s newly evolved gravity-bending powers to change the direction of gravity and alter its strength at will. Master the laws of physics as you explore an expansive world filled with story quests, challenges and monstrous demons. Use your powers together with the fully destructible environment to overcome your enemies in ways never imagined. Enter a bright and bustling land, bursting with life. Manipulate gravity using the motion sensors of the DUALSHOCK 4 wireless controller to soar and traverse a vast and detailed open world, 2.5 times larger than the original. With a variety of missions and fun mini objectives, you’ve got plenty to keep Kat busy. Challenge friends online using PS4 Share functions to battle for leaderboard places, mine for goodies or hunt treasure. Kat’s incredible gravity based powers have been given a boost in Gravity Rush 2. On top of her Normal style, Kat now has access to Lunar and Jupiter styles: Reduces gravity and makes Kat lighter and quicker. Increases gravity, slowing down Kat’s movements but making her more powerful. Each style offers unique attacks that you can seamlessly switch between and combine to devastating effect. Partner up with other computer-controlled allies, such as the formidable Raven, and tackle more heavy duty opposition – make sure no one can withstand your spectacular tag-team attacks. Just like in the original game, Gravity Rush 2 allows players to acquire a number of additional costumes for the protagonist Kat. The game also adds a photograph functionality and online asynchronous multiplayer such as treasure hunts and challenges. There is a new difficulty setting selection, allowing players to make the game slightly harder or easier, and using Gravity Gems unlocks a more diverse moveset for Kat instead of powering up her shifting time or speed. You can play as Raven in a free DLC titled "." There are also several free DLC costumes, such as the Dark Angel Costume and the NieR: Automata Collaboration Pack. Gravity Rush: The Animation - Overture, bridges the gap between the original Gravity Rush and the sequel Gravity Rush 2.

I've been playing through Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia and enjoying it a lot. As someone who has only played the 3DS Fire Emblem games, I really appreciate them dialing down the fanservice after Fates went way overboard with it. It's also nice that the characters have more meaningful interactions with each other since they're not just there as possible romance options for the avatar.

Some shrines are hidden behind rocks/boulders, and other tricky places that can't be seen from afar. If you have the Sheikah sensor turned off for most of the game (like I did), it'll be pretty hard to find them unless you scour the entire map again and happen to pass nearby. Others are hidden behind side quests, so look for any NPCs that you haven't encountered yet, particularly in less explored areas. Something that did help me out a bit was looking at areas of the map that didn't have any/many shrines, but that might not help you a lot at this stage. That said, I'm happy that I had it turned off for my first playthrough, as it heightened the sense of adventure and discovery.

At this point I'm doubtful we'll see much or any more improvement when it comes to the framerate. Not sure what it is about this specific area that causes issues. A difference I've noticed, though, is that I no longer get the one second frame hitch after attacking a Moblin with a two handed weapon. It's okay if you don't think it's a masterpiece, honestly. That's incredibly subjective, so you don't have to agree. I was trying to assess my own views about the game after completing it, too. I do think a game can be a masterpiece despite its flaws. For me it depends on whether or not the game was truly able to achieve what it strove to do, even if it stumbles in some other aspects. With BotW, that would be the open-air formula and the sense of freedom and exploration, which it absolutely knocks out of the park imo. It's also the type of game where I can completely understand if it doesn't click with someone. It depends on how much the things it does well matter to you, or if you prefer an entirely different approach when it comes to those things. I agree so much about it being like a warm bath, and easy to dive into. It can be almost therapeutic in a way.

If you want, keep the diamonds, rubies and sapphires for now. Sell the other ones as they spawn very frequently, and although they don't sell for as much as the ones I mentioned earlier, it adds up quickly. There are also NPCs that will buy certain precious stones for more than your average shop owner/vendor. But in general, as you get in deeper in the game, you'll find sites that are rich in mining ores, so there's no problem with selling your precious stones if you need the money.

Hold ZR to switch between bows/arrows on the left and right d-pad. There's no limit on how many shrines you can do, the world is your oyster. Rupees are definitely not worthless, you need them for certain items that will be sorely needed to progress through certain areas. There are ways around this, but getting these items is the smoothest way to move forward. I recommend selling your precious stones to gain money quickly. They can be easily farmed later on as you open up more of your map. Selling cooked meats is also a good way to earn money. You need to take horses to stables in order to register them. o/

There are two levels of fire/heat/cold in the game. Death Mountain (near the top) is hotter than the areas around the bottom. You're not in the right area yet if even the Fireproof elixir is doing nothing. What you need is another item or piece of clothing to help protect you from burning (aka two items of clothing OR one clothing item and the elixir protects you from the secondary level of fire - equipping an ice weapon also acts as a layer of fire protection). Are you trying to find a settlement? Or just generally exploring? No, you don't need a special item for the Lost Woods.

The game doesn't really hold your hand. You won't get waypoints or little dots on your map telling you where all your points of interest are. You see something? You figure out how to get to it. That doesn't mean the game doesn't tell you what you need to know, you just need to do a bit of experimenting to figure it out at times. Exploration is one of its strengths, so if you don't enjoy any of the things I mentioned, then it may not click for you. I would at least try to go to the first settlement in the game before giving up, though.

No, I don't think any of them break the game. Iirc you can't upgrade the DLC armour, so it'll offer you less protection in combat. But each armour set or item is useful in its own way. Like the Korok mask helps you to find Korok seeds. The others have their own buffs, but it's nothing you can't already get in the game from other outfits. There's also a talisman that you can use to teleport back to places that don't already have a fast travel point. The hero's path feature is pretty useful, too. The main attraction in the outfits is style/nostalgia imo. Don't worry about getting them right off the bat, though. They're hidden in specific places on the map, and the game will give you a hint as to how to find them, but they're very spread out. You'll probably find them organically through your journey. I've only played them in normal mode so far, but I definitely wouldn't say it's impossible. It can be challenging at times, sure, but imo it was the fun kind of challenging. If you run in without thinking, it'll be hard, but you can get through it with a bit of strategy. I wouldn't say I'm a pro at the combat or anything, and I managed just fine. From what I am hearing DLC 1 is difficult in an unfair way in Master Mode, though.

Yeah I found my first 70 or so without even having the Sheikah tracker thing activated. I turned it off as soon as I could because I wanted to find them naturally through exploration. You can see a lot just from scanning the horizon from high surfaces like the towers. There's also always one near a stable or town. So if you come across a new stable or settlement, you know there's one near by.

Just noticed that this wasn't answered, sorry. Did you complete the game on Wii U? Or at least defeat all the divine beasts? If so, I would honestly just play it on Wii U. If you'd really rather not, then I think it's worth it if you plan to continue to play the game on Switch. The expansion pass definitely enriches the experience. However, don't go in expecting a meaty story or anything like that. It gives you a bit more insight into the Champions, and offers some cool challenges. It's basically a bit more of the things people loved about the game. I enjoyed it a lot, but definitely temper any expectations about the 'story' part of the DLC.

It's integrated into the game itself. All of the treasure chests can be found right away. DLC Pack 1 has a certain condition that I won't spoil.

Yeah they come back, which is why it's advisable to sell them if you need money. You can kind of tell what you'll get from them, but not exactly. I've noticed that ones that tend to shimmer yellow are more likely to contain precious stones.

I would personally play the DLC before finishing the game. At least the Champions Ballad part (and imo Trial of the Sword if that's your thing, since the reward is powering up the master sword). The Champions Ballad is unlocked after completing all four Divine Beasts so you can wait until you've completed that if you want. Btw the shrines in the Champions Ballad are some of the best in the game imo. A lot of them have been really clever or interesting, but not obtuse. I say this after completing all 120 in the base game.

I would say the Champions Ballad is best played in your initial playthrough, but it's only unlocked once you have completed all of the Divine Beasts. If you're going to get the DLC anyway, I would say yes, it would enrich your current playthrough.

I had the same issue with the game loading me right in front of him after I died. : P I eventually got fed up and retreated, and went back to try and stealth it instead. The stamina can be a bit frustrating at first, yeah, but weirdly I enjoyed it. I liked having to be careful and plan out everything, even something as simple as climbing a cliff. I think the weapon durability didn't bother me for the same reason. Skyward Sword, though... yeah the stamina meter system annoyed the heck out of me there.

I do recommend going to the one that's floating in the sky. It gives you a reward that helps you with exploration. It's also the easiest one, imo. The Gerudo one is my favourite, though, and it being the hardest played a role in that.

When you have more stamina, you can handle most surfaces when it's raining, unless it's a really long climb. What I do is climb 2-3 times, then leap just before I slip. Rinse and repeat. Otherwise I try to find cover and make a fire to pass time.

I'm still not done with it. I think I'm a little over halfway done now. It's certainly a lot different than I was expecting, but it's reminded me why I love the game so much. I think so far it's like a condensed version of the best aspects of BotW taken up a notch. Don't go in expecting a meaty story quest, though. But from what I have heard, it has an ending boss battle that's really good. I'm looking forward to replaying the game with the DLC integrated.

Finally decided to scratch the BotW itch (...which basically started as soon as I finished the game back in April) and started playing Master Mode. That opening moment never loses its charm and beauty. I died fairly quickly... due to fall damage. :P I have to get a hang of the controls again it seems lol. I haven't died in combat yet, but I've been playing more stealthily this time. I did notice a Lynel pretty close to the Temple of Time, though... I think I'll keep the Switch shirt this time. :P I didn't want it to taint my initial playthrough. I definitely want to do things differently this time, but I haven't decided exactly how I'll go about things. I might unlock the entire map before taking on any of the main quest.

Yes I was thinking of going in that direction first, too. I originally went Zora > Goron > Rito > Gerudo. Now that you mention it, it would probably be a good idea to at least do Vah Medoh asap for the reasons you stated haha.

That moment was also the "Holy shit, this game" moment for me, too. Especially because I really wasn't expecting anything much when I headed there. A random farmer NPC told me Princess Zelda had visited it before, which is what piqued my interest.

The sensible thing probably would have been to turn around, but it made for a better experience imo. :P It was definitely worth it. What I did was get the 'tunic' part of the armour as part of the side quest you can get in the southern mines, and then I bought the rest of the outfit in Goron City. I think I got lost trying to find Goron City initially so I was already aware of how hot Death Mountain was.

If you go into the settings you can change the jump button (this is the only button customisation you can do, though). The weapon durability increases as you get stronger weapons. I can answer the bit about inventory if you like. I wasn't sure if you wanted an answer on that or if you wanted to find out for yourself. I believe you can get high quality pictures if you use an SD card, but I haven't tried it out. Uploading to Facebook or Twitter compresses the picture quality a bit, unfortunately.

Some items are needed for upgrading things, but most are quite easy to find again besides a few particular items. I would advise you to hang on to any bee honey you find, though. They can be quite annoying to track down in large quantities. With BotW at least you can do as much or as little as you want before going for the end game. One day I'll go for that Great Plateau -> Hyrule Castle run. :P The autosaves make it pretty stress free, so maybe that's helping with the difficulty. Good luck with getting it done before Christmas~ There's a lot I need to wrap up before the year is over, too. I had to work out my feelings towards the game for a month or so, but in the end I decided it was in my top 5 games of all time, too, and my second favourite Zelda game. The sense of wonderment and exploration are quite unlike anything I've experienced before. The number of "Eureka!" moments are something else. I love that now that the Switch has the capture feature, we're getting a lot of cool little clips and in turn are still discovering things we can do in this game so many months later.

When googling I only see March as the most recent results, which makes sense since Wii U has fallen further out of relevance since then. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the Wii U version has gotten much performance updates? It being the version they were working on for the longest, it's probably optimised as much as possible, so this video should still hold true for the Wii U version at least: The Switch version has had a few performance patches since then, though. Unless the occasional frame drops bother you that much, I would go ahead and play it on Wii U if you're not going to get a Switch any time soon. But yeah, that's if it's not a deal breaker for you.

It makes your master sword stronger, so I would say yes. I found it pretty fun. This one made me laugh, haha. Whilst I would definitely recommend everyone to try and see everything for themselves for the first time in BotW (part of the draw of the game is the sense of discovery), I'm still discovering things after thinking I've seen everything that the world has to offer.

I'm a big Zelda fan so it would definitely still be worth playing for me, but hopefully you can still find a lot of enjoyment in the game if you do buy it.

Yep. When you get out of the opening area, you have the option to go in any direction you choose, even though there is an objective to chase right away if you want. Some people played the game in a fairly linear fashion (even though there isn't any real order to doing the main dungeons), others chose to go off the beaten path, and others chose to uncover the entire map before even attempting any of the main quest. It's interesting to see how each person's journey varied (and finding out that some people missed some pretty cool moments/quests despite playing for 100+ hours). When I replay the game, I'll definitely do things differently. I guess that would depend on how skilled you are at the game. I wouldn't say it's too difficult to pull off. The guardians can be pretty terrifying at first, but I was able to handle them later on in the game. Great to see my alt here! :jolly: There are three 'levels' that come with a set of rooms (I think 16?), each increasing in difficulty. You can take a break and save between each level. I finished the first one and managed to finish it on my first try. The enemies and items in each room will be the same, so even if you die on your first attempt, you'll be able to figure out a strategy for the next time. I think most people are speculating that we'll find out after XC2 is released. Maybe at The Game Awards? Aonuma has reconfirmed that it's coming this year several times, at least. After the radio silence I hope we'll get something substantial, too. I know we're getting a new shrine and new challenges on top of the new story, so I have to assume these take place in a different area. Here's hoping!

I finally got around to doing the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 quest. It was pretty fun figuring out the riddles and finding the pieces of the costume. I do wish they named the quest something else, though. :P

I don't think we know anything specific besides it containing lore and info. The PR statement said that it would be 100 pages. I'd say it's probably a simpler version of the standard edition guide, which is 368 pages. Nintendo ran off with our money. *shakes fist* Aonuma has reconfirmed a few times that it's coming this year. I'm thinking they're waiting until XC2 releases.

Hmm now that you mention it, they did also package NSMU and Luigi U together for Nintendo Selects, so it is possible. Hard mode has a separate save slot, right? I'm looking forward to starting over but the amiibo items can require some incredible luck sometimes.

Thread: Community Spotlight: REgals [Women of Era] |OT| Episode I: The Female Menace

A bit late on the moderation issue, since I was trying to work out where I stood on it. I don't report that much, in my opinion anyway, but I have found that most of the time it results in a warning or ban. I think warnings and temp bans tend to serve as a guide for others on what is or isn't tolerated in a thread and the forum as a whole (for most, anyway), unless it's a very heated and fast moving discussion. But honestly, even on the old forum where perma bans were frequent and came even without prior offenses, those kind of threads tend to continue to get low quality and inflammatory/offensive posts either way (see the recent Pewdiepie controversy which resulted in a never ending graveyard). So first of all I'd like to thank the moderators for being pretty quick in responding to reports, and trying their best to maintain a welcoming forum. With a forum as active as this one, I know it isn't easy. However, while I understand that finding a balance between being too heavy handed with moderation and being fair while not giving too much leeway is hard, I do wish things were a bit more strict when it came to repeat offenders. I don't see why people who have made their intentions clear with repeat offenses should simply get a slightly longer ban. Those kind of people don't deserve a platform, in my humble opinion, particularly when they make it clear they only post in these threads to spread their agenda and dismiss the concerns of others, instead of participating in an open dialogue. It's to the point where I see several familiar faces in threads that deal with progressive issues, and though they have gotten one or several bans, they continue their antics. It makes it an uncomfortable place for women and minorities to discuss, and I think it's gotten to the point where I no longer have the desire or energy to post in these threads. It's disheartening that even on Era it feels like a big boys club over on the gaming side, and as things currently stand, that won't be changing any time soon. But it's good to see this is a process that is still being worked out, so I hope to see things improve in the future. Thanks once again for your hard work!

Against my better judgement, I read through that whole thread. Some of the posts were outright defending sexualising child/child-like characters just because they're fictional ("You do know anime isn't real, right?") and only one person got banned on the very last page. Then you have others calling kiddy characters their waifus. The entire subject was just treated like a joke after the first couple of pages. I have no idea why that was allowed to go on for as long as it did.

I hope so, too. Because if this is the stance of the forum: then I hope even subtle or joke defenses aren't tolerated. There's nothing funny about normalising pedophilia or sexualising children. A user even tried to deflect, by saying the people who demonise lolicon shit are probably pedophiles themselves (by referencing a certain user on the old forum).

It's pretty easy to fabricate that kind of thing in an online discussion, so probably. But there are also some women who have sexist/misogynistic views, sadly, even though they don't benefit from thinking that way at all. Just as it's possible to find people of colour who excuse racism against their own people. They're always in the minority, though. In any case, it doesn't invalidate the complaints that many women have, and it's a really cheap tactic employed by men to reassure themselves.

Thread: Community Spotlight: REgals [Women of Era] |OT| Episode I: The Female Menace

It really bothers me when people assume your gender on a forum, especially in this forum since all it takes is a click to see if the person has chosen to display their gender or not. People often make that assumption about me, too, particularly in threads that concern women. The worst kind of posts for me though are the disingenuous ones 'defending' women from other women. Like "I feel so sorry for all of the women who are being shamed for what they wear", and similar arguments in a thread criticising sexually objectifying character designs.

Thread: Community Spotlight: REgals [Women of Era] |OT| Episode I: The Female Menace

It's honestly demoralising trying to discuss or read most topics related to women in video game forums. Era and the old forum were a bit better in the sense that at least there were more people speaking out against sexist and misogynistic views, but it still feels like it's a bunch of men talking over you a lot of the time. I applaud the people who have the mental fortitude to keep discussion going in these threads, because I get worn out quickly.

Thread: Community Spotlight: REgals [Women of Era] |OT| Episode I: The Female Menace

The negativity surrounding 'white knighting' is strange to me. Same as the anti-'SJW' rhetoric. It's as if having empathy for other human beings is a bad thing to some people. I can't tell if we're making progress or regressing when it comes to certain topics, but I think we are making some progress... albeit slowly. It's a shame that there's so much backlash against said progress, but that's always been the case in history. When you're used to having it better than others, equality seems like oppression. At least that's how it is if you lack basic empathy, I guess. Regarding men talking over women, I've seen men explain how a woman's anatomy works in the presence of women (usually to justify excessive jiggle physics as being 'realistic'), amongst other things, so yeah... things can get pretty frustrating over on the gaming side.

I've seen that term thrown around (by guys) the second another guy speaks up about sexism, or defends a woman in any way. I agree that there are disingenuous people who are putting on a front for ulterior motives (or just generally ignorant/misinformed), but there are also other people who genuinely have empathy and respect for their fellow human beings. When I see men throwing it around it's usually with a lot of venom, as if they have betrayed their own gender or something.

It's okay for people to express disappointment. E3 comes around once a year, after all. Some reactions might come across as exaggerated, but I'm sure that's just because we all like the allies and enjoy their content a lot. Kyle not being there for the Nintendo direct is a bummer, but I'm keeping my hopes up for a fun stream. A lot of the allies are big Nintendo fans, so I'm sure we'll still get some great reactions.

I honestly have less time to watch YouTube these days, so I have no problem with just skipping a group stream if I find it boring. EZA are putting out more than enough content for me to keep up with, so a game that I'm not interested in winning every now and again isn't a big deal for me. But then again, the group streams go live at like 2AM for me, so I can understand people who usually watch it live being a bit more disappointed.

The way I see it is that two games that you enjoyed to somewhat varying degrees both being 10s is fine. It's not meant to be a 100% accurate and unique representation of how much you enjoyed it. You'll find that information in the content of the review itself. Most reviewers seem to reserve perfect scores (regardless of which scale they're using) for games that they deem to be masterpieces/masterful (i.e., what 5 stars was for EZA). I never took a 10 to mean that it was the pinnacle of my enjoyment of video games, and that nothing could surpass it. I think the 20 point scale is useful in the sense that it offers a little bit more leeway than the 10 point scale, but isn't as nitpicky as the 100 point scale. Kind of the perfect balance for me.

Happy with the change, myself. The 20 point scale is the perfect balance between simplicity and just enough nuance. Not fond of the 100 point scale because it seems too nitpicky to me (I prefer the 10 point scale to this). I guess it's all a matter of perception at the end of the day. What matters the most is that the Allies now have a system where they can comfortably express their opinions, and not feel misrepresented.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

The weekly podcast probably has the highest highs for me, but I enjoy Frame Trap the most more consistently. There are some weeks where I just find the weekly podcast "okay", whereas I don't get that as much with Frame Trap. To be fair, Frame Trap is not a weekly podcast, so there's that. I just really enjoy Ben's in depth discussions, I guess.

I can't really say I care much about what review scale they use (though I'd prefer a 10 point scale, if I have to choose). Only thing I can say for certain is that they should have a unified system. It's just more professional and makes their reviews carry more weight imo.

Maybe it's just me, but I love hearing them discuss about the games that they're playing, even if I have no interest in said games. After playing the first Beta, I feel like Monster Hunter World isn't for me, but I still enjoy listening to them talk enthusiastically about why it excites them, especially those new to the franchise. Ben is also pretty good at bringing up thoughtful points and questions too, to make it more of a discussion than a monologue imo.

What a fantastic stream. Was entertained from start to finish. Thanks for doing this for us, allies. It must have been exhausting, but it made for great entertainment. I agreed with pretty much all of the picks, too, and thought generally the arguments and reasoning was well thought out. Also want to thank for the research you did for the OST category. Super jolly stream, all around. I could feel the tensions in the GOTY part, but it was still L&R all around.

Regarding menus, there was something about Nier: Automata which I thought was really cool. It's a major spoiler, so I'll spoiler it. It has a pretty simple menu system, but I love that since the characters are androids, it represents their own systems menu and does some pretty clever stuff with it. Thanks!

I think I would have enjoyed it more for what it was if I wasn't so put off by the writing. I physically face palmed at some moments. I do recognise that it does some interesting things, but since my experience at that point was overwhelmingly negative, it didn't impress me much. To get more into specifics: It's a free game thankfully, so I just moved on to something else after scratching my head for a bit.

The biggest disconnect of 2017 for me has to be Doki Doki Literature Club. I see so many people raving about it, but I thought it was absolutely terrible. Sure, it has some interesting ideas, but nothing that hasn't been done before with much better execution. And then there's an even bigger disconnect when I see people saying it handles the subject matters well... I could not disagree more.

Lmaoo. The funny thing is, BotW is my GOTY, but I'm excited to see opposing opinions. So there's definitely no bias on my part when I say Persona 5 has a chance. More than anything I just hope there are well made and articulated arguments for and against the nominees.

But they will be debating on video. Next week's group stream will be a very long GOTY deliberation. In other news, I just got around to watching this week's Frame Trap. Really great episode.

Well we know for sure that both Huber and Ben liked Persona 5 more than Zelda. Huber has flat out said that it's his GOTY several times already. I expect them both to fight for it, and Brad and Ian have said that they wouldn't mind if it won. They will be debating all categories, not just GOTY. Even if they end up picking BotW, I think the process of picking the top 10 will still be intense and interesting. I'm personally looking forward to it, and I don't think BotW winning is as much of a guarantee as some think. Either way, I hope they fight for whichever games they truly believe in instead of trying to put on an 'interesting' show and going against the grain. That would be a disservice to themselves, and I personally watch them to see them being honest and passionate about their opinions. And... I don't think PUBG will be #3. I will be surprised if it's in the top 5, honestly. I haven't heard anything from them to suggest that any of them feel passionately about it. I think the top 3 will be BotW, Mario and Persona 5, not in that order necessarily. But I think it'll be those three fighting for the GOTY and top 3 positions.

I finished watching the HoG stream, so I can finally check this thread, yay. It was a great stream and I'm happy with the two games that got in. Feels bad that Megaman X got the shaft because Ben voted for others over his own, though, even if Pokemon Red/Blue would have been my own pick. It was really cool of Ben to vote for Ian's over his own because of the effort Ian put into the Myst presentation. I hope they consider that 'no voting for your own pick' rule for future HoG streams. Yeah it would sometimes mean voting for other games over your own even though you consider your pick the best, but I think the emphasis should be on convincing enough people to vote for your pick, rather than considering how much your pick needs votes from and having to weigh that.

That's pretty much how I feel about it, too. I think it would have been better if it had a note attached asking for it to be opened off-stream. Jones did express interest in learning more about these issues, but I don't think the group stream is the best place for that to happen. All in all, it made the atmosphere a bit awkward, even if the sender didn't have any bad intentions. I don't think Jones' attitude towards women and minorities is the reason the gift was sent, or at least nothing in the note suggested that. Jones expressed several times that as a white man, he isn't really able to relate or understand what marginalised people have to go through, so I think it was sent with those comments in mind.

Yeah, Ben seemed pretty annoyed by the comments (although he said he's become numb to it now). Reading through them, they do seem more negative (and irrational) than usual, but Ben said this is usually the case for the JRPG reviews. I thought it would be people who thought the game deserved a higher score, but for the most part, it seems like people who think 8/10 is too high and biased... even though it's below the metacritic average.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

First of all, I didn't hear anything about Jones being okay with 'ruffling feathers'. Maybe I missed something. My takeaway from it was that Jones is okay with being 'roasted' by the community, because he thinks it's possible to learn from it and he's grateful for the support on patreon, so it's a small price to pay in his opinion. Jones tried to challenge Colin on a few points, such as how to deal with someone being offended by something you did/said even if you don't see your behaviour as offensive. However it felt pretty disingenuous when they were talking about how no matter what you do someone will be offended, since Colin clearly doesn't care whether he offends people with his behaviour or not. Despite Jones challenging Colin on some issues (basically being more diplomatic and trying to reach an understanding with others instead of being dismissive), it was pretty disappointing to see Colin throw a huge pity party about how he was defamed and vilified, and to not be challenged at all on how he behaved during the whole ordeal. And apparently we held our wallet like a gun to Jones' head, but Jones countered that by saying he's proud of everyone who left. I can sympathise to an extent since Jones isn't a confrontational person, and he was a guest on his podcast, but it's pretty sad that those issues haven't been addressed by Jones at all the past week or so. I think listening to the podcast, it doesn't come across as harshly as the summary, and it probably went as well as you could realistically expect. One thing I will say though is that it's unreal listening to how wildly different their attitudes are. Jones is certainly the more mature and well adjusted individual, to put it lightly.

I haven't seen anyone taking your summary as absolute fact. You quoted only part of my post. In the sentence preceding it, I asked for clarification on the context, i.e. I wanted to make sure I understood it correctly before reacting. In the sentence that comes after that quote, I said I would be waiting for an accurate assessment of the conversation before reacting. To say that that is jumping to conclusions is what you would call jumping to conclusions imo.

Colin has a habit of doing something problematic and then saying he didn't do it, when he clearly did. Take a look at these tweets, for example (and the tweets he's responding to): Uses language that is used to ridicule and mock transgender people, when the people he is speaking to try to educate him on the matter, he says that he said nothing transphobic and the problem is with them.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

The problem is that that conversation started with this: So he was already aware that his behaviour was offensive. That individual and one other person went into detail to explain why that kind of behaviour (comparing nonbinary genders to inanimate objects) is transphobic and hurtful to nonbinary people. He then went on to say "Cool. I think you should be able to identify as an oak tree if that's what makes you happy. Or a stop sign. Or a woman." If you don't think Colin knows what the impact of his words are here, you're basically saying he is unable to pick up on social cues and has no reading comprehension, because he was literally just told that was offensive, and yet he did it again anyway. Because he doesn't care. If someone was talking to a minority and they explained how a certain phrase or word is used in a racist way against them, would any empathetic and decent person immediately use that word against them? He was asked to listen to transgender people, and basically just dismissed them instead. This is why people say that dialogue with Colin goes nowhere.

Yeah, and it's why reading that twitter thread always makes me really upset. As a heterosexual and cisgender person, I can't imagine ignoring LGBTQ people when they try to explain why something is hurtful or harmful towards them. It's just incredibly arrogant and cruel to pretend that you know more about these issues than them, or that you have a better grasp of what they have to go through on a daily basis. Sadly from what I have seen this is how Colin reacts in every kind of situation that is similar to this.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

I understand your concern, but I don't think this will break the community. Amongst the people who are disappointed by the way things were handled, some are still patrons (probably most), and there's nothing wrong with either reaction. Even the people who are happy or fine with the situation, 99% of the posts are respected and don't lead to bickering. The problem is when people come in and dismiss other people's feelings on the matter simply because it isn't important to them, or come in to gloat and antagonise the community. That was never going to lead to anything productive. Regarding the mood of the thread, I think trying to force the conversation on to a different topic will only make people dwell on the issue longer. Last week I noticed that when people tried to urge others to change the topic, that only led to more tense posts. When people naturally steered the conversation to other topics through their own posts, that was a lot more effective. I would suggest the same here again.

I don't think I've seen a single person say that Jones can't be friends with or talk to Colin. This is specifically about collaborating officially. Personally, what makes me more uncomfortable than anything else is that he didn't say that Colin wouldn't be coming on EZA shows, just that it would be because they rarely collaborate with anyone at all. We didn't really get a clear cut response, so we're left trying to guess what he means. I don't think Colin will appear on any EZA shows, but the inability to address that as well as a lot of other issues leaves me feeling really disappointed.

I saw him engaging with a transgender person on twitter who asked him to not say things like "You can be a made-up-out-of-thin-air gender if you want", and he responded by saying he never said anything transphobic and the person could identify as an oak tree... when asked to listen to transgender people and respect them, he said that he did, and that the problem was on their end. I don't know if he's a lost cause, I would hate to say that about anyone, but as things stand, I can't imagine someone having a productive conversation about any of these topics with them. I don't think they will discuss anything like this on fireside chat, anyway, and Jones doesn't need to go to fireside chat to have a heart to heart with Colin, but he's made up his mind about that.

That's how I interpreted it, too, but it didn't gel with me that he wasn't willing to say it. That, and that he didn't really address the issues Colin created by calling out members of the community, sometimes going out of his way to dig up tweets that weren't directed to him at all, and then going on to screencap said tweet when the person deleted it out of fear of the backlash being singled out like that would cause. With him, it isn't just his community. He feeds it. Some people were really let down by the lack of response on that from what I have seen. I appreciate that Brandon tries his best to be diplomatic, but when I think back on the episode... did we really get a straightforward answer on anything? I know Brandon is a nice person, and he does care about the marginalised people in the community, but I can't help but feel disappointed.

This is coming from the person who was ridiculing Ian the other day for bringing up 'politics' (even though he wasn't the person to bring it up or discuss it at length). Stay transparent.

Just because you preface your post with 'I love Ian', that doesn't mean you weren't ridiculing him and assigning blame to him where it wasn't accurate or fair. You also avoided responding to posts that pointed out that Ian was not the person to bring up the 'politics' that episode, or the ally who spoke on the topic the most. In fact he was coming from the same angle as Kyle and just assuring the victims that even if they don't discuss these topics in the podcast, they still support them. Suggesting that Ian brings the hate he gets on to himself for being a 'SJW feminazi' and all sorts of other homophobic and bigoted slurs I won't repeat is incredibly ignorant. It's obvious why he's such a target for these people. It's very telling that you never once spoke out about the things that Colin or his fans have done throughout this ordeal, but instead made drive by posts like the one I quoted. I never made any 'us vs them' statements. I'm calling you out on your posts in this thread. Please don't deflect responsibility for your posts with cop-outs like these.

It's not really a guilt by association thing, as no one has a problem with Brandon being friends Colin. He could be a super nice guy in real life, at least to Brandon. It's about giving a platform to someone who we feel propagates hateful and spiteful behaviour, and alienates a big part of the audience. Of course we can't control the allies. They are their own people, and we are supporting them voluntarily. Brandon did ask for feedback, though. He said that if the audience really hates the idea of something, he wants to hear that kind of feedback. That's all you're seeing. Of course a lot of people might not feel comfortable supporting them if they do bring Colin onto EZA shows, but I would like to think that they will do so without tantrums, but respectfully. I know that's what I would do. No matter what, I believe that all of the allies are good people. If I ever stop supporting them, it will simply be because they are going in a direction that I don't feel comfortable supporting.

I'll just say this. It's really easy to tell people to tolerate people who spout sexist and racist things, when you aren't directly affected by those things in your life. This really reminds me of when people told black people to not be offended by the N word after the Pewdiepie debacle because it's "just a word" and we shouldn't give it power. It's easy to say that when you haven't had that word used against you since you were just a child. We didn't give that word power, the people who used it against us did. It's not just a word when racism has a very real effect on your life. This way of thinking shows a complete lack of empathy for marginalised people. Do you have to personally experience something for it to matter to you? When women are constantly shut down with sexism and misogyny, sexist jokes aren't just simply 'jokes'. It's a reminder of the sexism we face on a regular basis. Yes, we should be kind and respectful to others (see how no one is taking issue with Brandon being on friendly terms with Colin), but that doesn't mean you should be giving a platform to someone who is proud and doubles down on their offensive views, and I'm not talking about politics. I'm talking about basic human decency. To see people turn around and say we aren't showing love and respect to others because it isn't a big deal to them is just saddening, frankly. What's more saddening is to see people care more about racist/sexist behaviour being labeled than the actual racist and sexist behaviour itself.

I remember some people arguing that it was 'setting the bar low' to call someone a racist for using a racial slur as an insult in a certain thread on the other forum. No, let's call a spade a spade. If you do racist or sexist things and revel in it, don't be shocked when you're labeled a racist or sexist. That's on you and no one else.

Yep. Ian is the best. I also feel like my feelings about games doesn't always align with his, but I enjoy hearing his take on things nonetheless. He always advocates for people to play what they like and enjoy, and acknowledges when his opinion on something is the outlier (e.g. TLOU). I was feeling pretty down over the weekend, and decided to rewatch some old EU episodes (particularly the ones where Ian is just chilling with one or more of the allies) and it did a great job of cheering me up.

The other allies were interjecting through some of that. Ian wasn't randomly pausing for no reason. As for Ian's careful phrasing with the male presenting part, I think that was referring to gender expression and identity, which is something that Ian has avoided talking about explicitly before for obvious reasons. As Maiar said, the point was clear, even if there were some pauses or thinking phrases/sounds sprinkled in between. I don't really get why you're saying you're siding with Kyle when they're all on the same side and are making the same point. I know Ian isn't afraid to get political, but the people in the comments insinuating that Ian in particular was pushing politics are just going after an easy target. Like I said earlier, Ian wasn't even the person who discussed the topic in depth the most during that episode.

Welcome to the thread ! I don't really get this comment since Brandon went way more in depth into the topic than Ian did. In fact Ian was there when Kyle first said they weren't going to discuss the NeoGAF situation and supported Kyle's decision to not discuss it (he said something along the lines of "What would we achieve?"). All Ian did last episode was assure victims that they were on their side, even if they don't discuss these things on the podcast.

I haven't looked at the comments, but have gotten a gist of it based on what people are saying. It's strange that these people are singling Ian out, because Kyle and the rest of the allies present all agreed with the sentiments he expressed. Kyle even said "That is the official EZA stance going forward" (paraphrasing). More importantly I am constantly confused why these people are even following the allies, when they make it so clear that they have an attitude of love, respect and tolerance for others. If it's a closed minded and bigoted stance they're looking for, I'm sure there are other channels that share their sentiments?

I sometimes suspect the same thing. I remember in the comments section of the episode where PDP was brought up during the L&R section, some of the comments were straight up insulting the intelligence of the allies (because they said don't use racial slurs...). I can't fathom how such a person would be a regular viewer. These comments were also somehow the most upvoted comments, too, so that theory of having like minded people mass upvote certain comments has merit, I guess. Either way I have avoided looking at the comments since then, since I know there's a decent chance it'll just make my blood boil.

I love Huber's enthusiasm and passion. I'm not sure how someone could view it as fake. It has always appeared so genuine to me, especially since he seems to take an optimistic approach to life in general and not just video games. No matter how in love with a franchise or game he is, though, that never clouds his ability to be critical and acknowledge a game's faults.

I can't say I felt 'offended' by the recent trailer for TLOU2, but I did find it a bit unsettling. I think people raise a good point when they question whether such a graphic and violent trailer was in good taste during a conference/showcase. I'm sure those scenes will make sense in the game, with the necessary context. No one is doubting Naughty Dog's ability to make compelling characters and well told narratives within games. However, most of that context was missing here. And honestly if you're playing TLOU2, you're going into that game knowing what to expect. Not everyone who is watching their PGW conference wants to see that, though.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

Still haven't finished Odyssey (I think I'm at the part where it supposedly gets better and better), but BotW is still my GotY for now. Nothing I've played this year has matched the feeling that BotW gave me when playing it, and I had serious post-game depression after completing it where nothing else felt fun or engaging for months. I'll be very impressed if Odyssey matches or surpasses that kind of experience once I'm done with it, but if any game is going to do it, it will probably be Odyssey. Persona 5 is a great game, but I felt the pacing wasn't that good. I had to drag myself across the half way-ish mark, but it eventually picked up for me towards the end, so I'm glad I finished it. I'm going to play NieR after I'm done with Odyssey, so that could be another GotY contender for me too.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

I think the fact that this many months after release, people are still finding out things that you can do in BotW is what made that experience so magical for me. With the newly added 30 second capture feature in Nintendo Switch, people have been uploading cool short clips to twitter that make me think, wait, you can do that? And I played that game for 190 hours before forcing myself to move on. That's what BotW was for me. The sense of wonder, freedom and exploration. I think it all depends on what you treasure the most in gaming. That's why I can see why BotW could be the GOAT to one person, and not click at all with another. But honestly I think some people took the 'you can do anything!' comments in reviews too literally. Of course you can't do anything and everything. But the physics engine allows you to do a lot of things that you wouldn't think to do normally in a video game, but make sense with the set of rules present in the game's universe. Most people would not think to use magnesis on a spinning boomerang and use it as a buzzsaw, but you can do it if you're creative enough to think of it. That and the world being extremely charming to me made the experience I had playing it unmatched, even if there were some glaring faults that stuck out to me. It's just overall the strengths far outweigh the shortcomings. What makes me most excited, though, is the way that they can build on the formula in upcoming games, with this being the team's first attempt at a modern open world Zelda game. BotW isn't my favourite Zelda game, but I can absolutely see why it would be someone else's.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

I agree. And besides the side quests, there were a lot of cool things in the game that were not tied to any kind of side quest, and I just stumbled upon due to exploration (What's that thing over there?) or an NPC casually mentioning something related to it, e.g. Some of the side quests are simple fetch quests, yes, but there are others which encourage you to explore naturally like the which I found very touching. One of BotW's greatest strengths is that points of interest are not revealed to you in the map, but rather the game directs you to them through either the NPCs or it silently guides you to them through game design. That's why I personally saw the towers more like the maps that the fish draw for you in Wind Waker rather than Ubi Towers. Only the outline of the area is revealed to you, but you have to find any points of interest yourself. There's something about scouting out shrines, stables and towns yourself from a high vantage point that makes exploration so much more rewarding.

Damiani seems like one of the more reserved ones out of the allies, but he always has something interesting and insightful to offer when prompted. I have noticed that he doesn't usually put himself forward in podcasts or the monthly Q&As (more so for the Q&As, I'd say), but I think that's just his personality. Thankfully the other allies prod him for his take on things often.

Haven't played NieR yet (I plan to before the year is over), but Persona 5's OST is my favourite so far this year too. Nice. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Thread: Easy Allies |OT| The New Era

On a serious note, I just realised I have no idea what a bunch of the allies will probably vote for. I think Huber and Ben are likely to vote for Persona 5. Ben did say it depends on how he feels about Divinity: Original Sin 2 when he's done with it iirc, so that's not a lock, either. Kyle and Ian may vote for BotW, but maybe they'll be more enamoured with Odyssey? I have no idea what everyone else will vote for. BotW and Odyssey probably have the biggest chance. I'm happy that BotW and Persona 5 released earlier on in the year. It will give them time to chew on both of those games' pros and cons. They kind of touched on that a bit with BotW's dungeons in today's Frame Trap. Distance allows you to really consider how you feel about a game.

Thread: 52 Games. 1 Year. 2018.

. Figured I'd do monthly updates. Here's my January update: 1. I pushed this to the front of my backlog as the servers are going down soon. I finished the main missions/beat the game and collected all of the dusty token rewards. I still plan to go back to the game now and again to complete some side quests that I missed, but for now I'm going to focus on finishing some other games before the GOTY season is over. I really enjoyed my time with the game, and hope that against all odds, we see another game in the franchise in the future. 2. I... really didn't enjoy this. Perhaps I would have enjoyed it a little bit more if I had gone into it 100% blind, but I don't think it would have made a significant difference. I felt the writing was poor, even by visual novel standards. And it handled the delicate subject matter with as much tact as a bull in a china shop. It was so over the top that I didn't even find it creepy, just comical (and I'm someone who is creeped out fairly easily). And that's when I wasn't just flat out bored. Although it does have some interesting and clever ideas, but overall, I felt it was incredibly shallow. It's free and pretty short, so I guess can't complain too much. 3. I loved this game a lot more than I thought I was going to at first. In fact it's currently in my top 5 games of 2017. I loved almost everything about it. The music (oh, the ), the loveable cast and the sense of responsibility you have over them, the setting and lore, the intensity of the Rites and all of the micromanaging involved between them. The more I played, the more attached I grew to the cast, and at times, the choices I had to make weighed heavily on my heart. I love that your choices matter, and that often, there really isn't a 'right' choice to make. It's always difficult. All in all, this was a fantastically unique game that will stick with me for some time. 4. A very short but enjoyable puzzle game that's bursting with creativity. There's not much I can say about this without spoiling it, but I will say that it's one of the most interesting (and beautiful) puzzle games that I have played. 5. - 21/01/2018 I was fooled somewhat by the anthropomorphic animal characters and cute art style. This game touched on a lot of difficult subjects, and I was left with a heavy heart when I finished it. Despite that, I really enjoyed my time with this game and had my fair share of laughs with it, too. I can see myself replaying it to get all of the doodles. I finished with 8 pages missing. 6. - 22/01/2018 Not much to say about this. It was... okay? I liked some aspects of it, but it was pretty mediocre all around. The Wolf Among Us and Tales From the Borderlands remain their best work, imo. 7. - 22/01/2018 I decided to buy Bastion and Transistor during the January sale since I fell in love with Pyre, and wanted to check out their earlier works. While I didn't enjoy it as much as Pyre, it was still an enjoyable game with great atmosphere, interesting use of narration and a great OST. 8. - 28/01/2018 As my first 2018 release, this game really did not disappoint. I went into Celeste knowing very little. A little bit about the subject matter of the game, and the basic mechanics outlined in the Nintendo Mini Direct. Oh, and that it was getting a lot of praise. Although I usually dislike having games hyped too much before getting a chance to play them, I'm thankful for it in this case. It wasn't really on my radar before then. Celeste is a beautiful, sweet, charming and challenging platformer that's bursting with creativity. The subject matter is one that hits close to home, so I did anticipate being emotionally invested, but the depth and charm of the characters took me by surprise. Although it can be challenging at times, it never felt overly frustrating for me. Whenever i stumbled, it simply felt like a learning experience. --- A lot of smaller games, but I've also made decent progress through some longer ones, which I should hopefully finish this month. Hopefully I can keep up the pace.

Yeah, I know these discussions are important, believe me. I've said before that I admire the people who have the mental fortitude to keep discussing these issues over and over, despite the sheer number of drive by posts or opposition they face. But sometimes I wonder if it's worth the frustration to try and reach random people on the internet. Looking at posts from other women in the forum, there are plenty of others who feel the discussions have become too toxic for them, too. I commend the moderators for doing their best to maintain this forum and make it more welcoming for everyone, though. Keep fighting the good fight, everyone.

I can't really think of much about Link that would need to change personality or story-wise if he were a girl. Let's be real, he's very charming, but he barely has a personality and doesn't even speak. I remember some people being critical of how Link barely reacted to things in cutscenes, too. Most of your ideas about him are meant to be left to interpretation. That's kind of the point of his character. I'm one of the people that would prefer to have playable female characters, and have well written female characters take a more prominent role, instead of Link himself being changed. However, I don't think Link's personality or the story is really a counter argument against those who would like to play as fem Link, though. I don't see what sets Link apart in this game compared to other 3D Zeldas. Apart from not being able to change your name, of course.

There was one armour set that I liked. I think it was called Ingot? Admittedly I never touched the male armour sets so I don't know how it compares. I thought the feathery one was the most ridiculous.

Pretending that you have it so hard because a couple of games that treat women like sex objects, in a sea of so many games that treat women like sex objects, don't make it over is acting like a victim, yes. You're entitled to your opinion. That doesn't mean you won't face opposition or criticism for it.

That post wasn't just directed at you. It was also directed at who was acting like a huge victim, all because we dared to criticise games that constantly depict women in a degrading and sexist manner. There have been a number of 'Men are the REAL victims of sexism' type posts in this thread, so I can't say I'm really surprised.

Thread: Why women criticise sexualised character designs (READ OP)

Are you trying to imply that women and men face sexual harassment or abuse at the same rate? Women face sexual harassment all the time. Even in situations where the person doesn't have authority over them. We get harassed just walking down the street. Of course sexually harassing men is wrong, no one argued otherwise. That's not what this thread is about, though. It's a critique about the constant sexual objectification we see when it comes to female characters in this medium. Also, the 'it's a fantasy world' argument is weak. Why is it that in these fantasy worlds, men are almost always dressed in a way that makes sense within that universe, and if they're wearing armour, it looks like it would actually protect them? And more often than not, the women in these worlds are wearing high heels even though it's impractical and uncomfortable for the situation (jumping, kicking, running), and are not wearing armour that would protect them in the same manner as the men? Oh, right. It's because it has nothing to do with it being fantasy and everything to do with making sure that female characters look sexy and attractive at all times, because that's the primary focus in their design, and the primary focus in them being there at all. To be eye candy.

Those are the things that made the message the game tried to send feel incredibly hollow for me. I think Persona 5 does some things well, but I didn't care for how juvenile it was at all. Especially since it seemed like it was trying to take itself seriously at times, and would then just contradict itself horribly.

Thread: Why women criticise sexualised character designs (READ OP)

I noticed that some people criticised XC2 for 'having its cake and eating it too'. This is an issue that Persona 5 has, as well. The game tries to promote justice for the outcasts of society, people that are normally too weak to fight back against the cruelty and prejudice in societies. Then it turns around and pokes fun at some of the most marginalised people in society, and presents them in a negative way for gags. And yeah, Ann being on the receiving end of so much sexual harassment after her arc was so stupid. It's okay now because it's coming from teenage boys? It's a shame that the trope of gay men and transgender women being some kind of predators is so common in shounen anime and manga, and apparently some JRPGs. It bothers me when people say that the people who are impacted by these things should just ignore them, since it's common in the genre and there are other things to like about the game. Particularly when its people who are in no way affected by these issues in real life (men, heterosexual people, etc.) that say this.

The difference being that Persona 5 didn't shove any of those things in your face during marketing, so of course more people will be willing to give it a try. Yeah, I had issues with Persona 5 for several reasons, a few that impeded my enjoyment of the narrative. XC2, however, is happy to flaunt its horrible objectification of female characters, so I'll just save myself the discomfort.

There's a particular scene where her dress gets torn up in battle, and you can see her underwear. Worst of all, it was an emotional cutscene. I remember just thinking "What...". That was the only point in the game her outfit made me feel particularly uncomfortable. It was pretty odd and out of place, and ruined the moment for me, personally.
