@ayanakajima3 ...back then are still haunting us. I guess that is the hallmark of a good work of science fiction, having elements of both the contemporary and the future.

@ayanakajima3 But the fans ask: "Do the gods meddle with the aliens too, and how will the aliens react?" Science fictions is using the vision of the future to illustrate our contemporary problems. The events in DDS could only happened in the 80s, but sometimes I think the problems existed...

I believe morality is relative. The difference between Japanese morals and yours is likely very small. However, Loki is a being from another world. If he shared the same morals as us, he might not be able to survive in his own world. That’s why I don’t think he will ever truly share our sense of morality.

@ayanakajima3 If I may ask: Do you think Loki is capable of moral reform? If so, is he truly a devil? If not, why not? Thank you.

@ayanakajima3 ...the karmic system as experienced by our current incarnation. People like that in real life can develop a twisted and inhuman moral system, and they can commit terrible atrocities. Were Akemi been manipulated by someone like that, would his reaction stay the same?
English
@ayanakajima3 You can just see Akemi grew more cynical and desperate as the story of Digital Devil Story went along. But, let's just say that Loki isn't an alien from another dimension but a politician or a billionaire who is so far above both the legal system and what we perceived as...

@m_jousan Nice! Though is it just me or does it look like Shizuna's head is a tiny bit bigger than how she is normally drawn?

@OnedayillDi3 @RhockoHarrison Ice-T said that EA paid him almost nothing for Def Jam, but back then most artists didn't think that the game was going to make a lot of money anyway. Nowadays everyone know video game is a cash cow, so the rights money is going to be off the roof if EA tries it again.

@RhockoHarrison With the amount of Rappers we have today to female rappers like IGGY, Nicki Minaj, Meg & such. Idk how we dont have another Def Jam

@azitsukeniku Nice! But are those Ordine's hands or Valimar's that carry them?

@htGOIW ...was its strength. This is another case of people not reading the article and making up strawmen to get angry at.
English
@htGOIW You don't need Netflix to talk about "foreign involvement with anime". American-Japanese co-productions were a thing back in the 80s. Some are mediocre, but there were also good shows like IGPX. And the fund manager explicitly said that he believed anime's "Japanese-ness"...
English
The person in the original video is just saying that global capital's involvement in Japanese IP is not necessarily a bad thing, so this kinda feels like a rage bait. There can be more cases like Inu-Oh.
AUTOMATON WEST@AUTOMATON_ENG
“Anime is to Japan what Silicon Valley is to America.” Japan’s IP content has immense growth potential, but a “switch in mentality” is needed to sell it globally, famous fund manager suggests automaton-media.com/en/news/anime-…

@Scarecrohh Like replacement characters that you only get when someone dies? People playing Classic will just replay the chapter if one of their units die.

I wholeheartedly believe that the Fire Emblem streets were not ready for some of the mechanics that the DS FE's had back then.
They had a lot of great and fun systems in those games and the save points were chefs kiss, I'd love to see them again pop up again some day.
FEtwt Confessions@fetwtconfession
“The DS FE save points are IMO the best system the series has had for rewinds/undoing deaths/etc. Giving maps a check point that the player can use whatever turn they want helps act as a safeguard against bad RNG late into a map that's frustrating, while only having one or two-

@faleuxe It looks like a fake game they made up for a movie.

This indie team is making a game where you must escape a prison with only a spoon. - Inspired by classic cartoons - Every inch you dig brings you closer to freedom - Your only tool is a spoon It's called Escape By Spoon.

@STGshmups I mean, Jean Reno has said that he was open to working with Capcom again. And the Onimusha 2 Remaster once sounded just as impossible until it literary happened.

Probably will never be rereleased due to Jean Reno being in it, so feel free of guilt to download and play.

'CODE GEASS' Director Goro Taniguchi worries over lack of Anime Originals "Over the last few years, adaptations have understandably become the norm because they’re easier to secure a profit on... But I believe that if left with nothing but adaptations, [anime] will be done for."

@MeganP34856 @SeanMcCarthyCom ...I don't know what did you even look at. You don't have to be a "progressive anti-war" to know that much. Just open the news.

@MeganP34856 @SeanMcCarthyCom ...administration was convinced of the pivot from the GWOT to confronting Russia and China (not to mention things like the damning report from GAO). Trump created the conditions so that new conflicts will happen and the ones already there get worse. If you didn't see all that,...

You’d think there would be even a slight moment of reflection from the people who said Trump would never start a war with Iran. Maybe a short break to study why their assumptions were mistaken. But no, without missing a beat they’re still confidently offering their dumb opinions

@FurlinNick These motherfuckers are cynical beyond belief. No one is stupid enough to think that the Trump-Rubio cartel care one bit about "democracy" or "humanitarian matters". These fuckers are going to turn Cuba into Epstein Island 2.0!

Castro was a world historic great person and you are a pathetic loser chearing on a bunch of pedophile nazis destroying Cuba. Shove it up your sanctimonious ass

I don’t want colonialism. I don’t want to swap one oppressor for what the Cubans might perceive to be another. I also don’t want to be lectured about how “Castro wasn’t that bad” by some lefty assholes that heard someone else say that so they think they should too

@CypressDahlia @BasedTomas While Tokimeki Memorial's success pushed Japanese studios to make big-money dating sims, you can also see the relationship system creeping from Fire Emblem into games like Azure Dreams and Thousand Arms.
English
@BasedTomas I actually don't know where this mechanic started lmao. So you could be right. Earliest example I can think of is Fire Emblem on SNES. But there's probably some CRPG from 1982 that has this that I may not know about

You may be joking, but I been knee-deep in PC-98 lately and there are so many eroge that are legit 20+ hr RPGs. That entire genre is mostly dried up, tho. I have thoughts on why and the effects of that. But basically the entire "porn game" genre is treated as a gimmick now

@ShoahUkraine Was the Swiss financial system scrutinized or punished in anyway for their relationship to the Nazi? And for that matter, what happened to the Swiss Nazi sympathizers or the German Nazi who ran to Switzerland? Did they find their way into the Cold War intelligence network?
