Type-0's main character Machina Kunagiri(I'm sure most of you remember my theme) has a confirmed English VA now. Don't have a source link yet but it's legit. Bryce Papenbrook
Lol. Guitar master race.
I must share my joy over this. Spoiler It's so clicky. Cherry MX Brown switches. Aluminum body. White backlit keys. Also, did I mention it's made out of freaking aluminum?
New gameplay trailer...that shows very little new gameplay.
OOC Thread Story Pando Magic Mythos Characters Legend has it that this world was born through the war of gods and their countless deaths. It is even believed by some that this world, its star Aten, and its moon Iah were formed from the deaths of their namesakes. When humans came into being they displayed magical abilities which, in time, became the power that fueled their wars. Stories of old tell of heroes who performed godlike acts for the sake of peace spawning the legends of the Mystics, a powerful race of beings who have long since left this world to allow humanity to progress at its own pace. Throughout its history humans have displayed excessive violence towards one another. It was only that through the events of one horrific battle three thousand years ago that their conflicts over territory and power were ceased. Dubbed The Last War, its greatest battle left Pando, their world, scarred by the complete annihilation of its largest country Amelatu. After The Last War Amelatu’s capital, Zenith, was rebuilt as a reminder of what was lost. Even today Zenith still stands and has only grown in size since that day. It serves as a central attraction for yearly festivities that commemorate the end of the war. Being the three thousandth year since The Last War’s end, this day will be something exceptionally special...and different... World Map A country with a tough mountainous climate and a tougher people, it has a large defense force simply known as “The Knights of Eridis” who exist solely to uphold the law and protect their country from Pando’s more dangerous wildlife. Officers of the Knights are easily distinguishable from others as they travel through the air with the use of domestic dragons(which have been bred so that they no longer breathe fire). The people here are often friendly and respected for their strength. Though both Zenith and Eridis have advanced a great deal in the sciences over millennia, Belnuru serves as a center for the scientific community. It is through the breakthroughs within Belnuru that have allowed for the creation of energy generators that draw on the naturally occurring Aether in the world. Even in its defense force Belnuru makes use of metallic giants known as Golems. This urban environment also brought a quick means of transportation throughout its country and to both Eridis and Zenith by way of a vast network of railways. It goes without saying that the people of Belnuru are often thought to be highly intelligent. The rebuilt capital of the fallen country Amelatu, Zenith is a massive city home to the wealthy and the powerful. Children from both Eridis and Belnuru yearn to be accepted into its academy and very few ever pass the entrance exam. Graduating from the Zenith Academy almost guarantees a bright future. During the yearly celebrations for the end of The Last War, political figures from all over Pando visit this grand city. The Aether is said to be the beginning of magic itself. Humans are attuned to it in such a way that magical abilities manifest. Creatures like dragons have a natural affinity towards using it directly but humans are unable to directly control pure Aether without the assistance of technology. The use of magic causes fatigue and if an unexperienced practioner uses their powers at a level their bodies are not capable of handing it may cause death. Using powerful magic creates an aura around the user which can be sensed by others nearby. Part One: The First War Before time. Before light. Before darkness. There was chaos. There was war. There was blood. Beings of unimaginable power fought without reason other than for the thirst of victory. The first to be slain was Adar and with His death came both light and darkness. Thus was the birth of the first star from His body. War raged long after the universe was bathed in the light of fallen Gods. The death of Pando, the gentlest of the Gods, created a dense star that bore no light of its own. Unable to bear eternity without Him, His mate Iah took Her own life. Iah was destined to dance through space with Pando as two forever dark stars. Aten, the mightiest of the Gods, could no longer bring Himself to fight. Determined to see peace amongst His brethren He breathed His last and brought forth the most brilliant radiance seen in the universe, His magnificent brilliance extending out to the furthest reaches of existence. Upon seeing the new star, the Gods fought no longer. New life began to sprout on the body of Pando and upon seeing this; the Gods were immediately drawn to bring their influence upon the creatures. They argued long over how to allow the new creatures grow and it was not until they battled once more, scaring the face of Pando and casting darkness across half of His body. All but One had perished in the battle. Nasaru, The Guardian, had chosen not to fight. She watched as Pando’s children began to die from the vile corruption left by the Gods on His body. With Her power She blessed the scar on His face and created a pure white barrier behind which the creatures could survive. Unwilling to make the same mistakes Her fallen brethren had She vanished leaving the children of Pando to thrive on their new home. Part Two: The Tale of Albion The White Mountains stretched across the world of Pando. It was forbidden to cross them as in doing so, one would transform into a hideous demon. The Untainted Valley was home to three tribes of magical beings. The first were the Solomonari, those who were gifted with the elements of nature. The second were the Urias, the hunters, who were blessed with strength, speed, and agility beyond that of the other tribes. The third were the Valva, those who were given the ability to change form at will. Together they were united under Solon, the Overseer. The Overseer was a position of in which its successor was always chosen by its predecessor and was given powers not present in any other tribe. The Overseer was to ensure that peace reigned within the Untainted Valley. Aged 13, a Solomonari whose name has been lost to time, He found himself face to face with a demon, His own mother who had accidentally crossed the White Mountains. Before His tribesmen could kill her He displayed a power that had never been seen before. Unwilling to allow his mother to be slain, with a touch of His hand He purified her thus reverting her back to her original form. Aged 17, under sanction from the Overseer, the young Solomonari continued to purify those who had transformed into demons. Their eyes were not the same as they once were leading many to believe they were still possessed by evil. The golden glow of their eyes unnerved the tribes of the Untainted Valley. Despite His great efforts He could not convince them to accept the Purified. Against the dying Overseer’s wishes the tribes began to take it upon themselves to rid the Valley of the Purified.

Home: Belnuru Occupation: Student Magic: Growth - Enhance the growing power and strength of plants to an extent Specialty: Large expansive memory on plants, wildlife, and history Other: Ironically, her mother and father are involved in research on the naturalistic front. Name: Zauriel l'Zrael Age: 18 Appearance: Click here Personality: Extremely sympathetic and kind, Zauriel is one who finds the good in everything. His optimism would be annoying if it wasn't for the child-like way that he views the world. He has virtually no concept of the "big picture" and cares little for it at all. He enjoys the little things, rarely frowns, and hates politics. He reacts much like an animal to new developments. Due to the nature of his powers, he is tired quite a bit. Home: Eridis Occupation: Student (has a part-time job caretaking for animals at the school) Magic: Shapeshifting - Able to shapeshift his body into various forms. He's not able to shapeshift his entire body, but can change his limbs to animal limbs or grow wings, tails, horns, etc. Small details such as his eyes, ears, or hair are constantly changing. Specialty: Great with animals, almost to the point of communication. Other: Due to the huge flux of magical power within his body, Zauriel is almost constantly shapeshifting without control. This manifests in his eyes changing color or shape, his horns changing size, an unwanted tail, etc. It is usually done in tandem with his emotions or to match his environment. Because his family raised dragons for The Knights of Eridis, his forms tend to lean to dragonic. Name: Damion Haal Age: 18 Appearance: Damion Personality: Damion is a somewhat quiet boy.

Specialty: Has a fair knowledge on guns Other: N/A Name: Poke Kuvari Age: 16 Appearance: He's 5'9" tall, has black hair, and cyan eyes. He wears a red coat, a black T-shirt inside, dark-blue jeans and white-black sneakers. Personality: He's pretty friendly and warm towards other, although he may crack some bad jokes, and maybe even act rude at times, but it's all in good spirit. Poke's someone that loves to make other people happy, and if he sees someone in a bad mood, he'll do his best to try to help. Home: Zenith Occupation: Student Magic: Augmentation – The ability to enhance physical attributes for short periods of time. However, he's most experienced(And prefers) with using it on his legs. Since he spent so much time concentrating on just those specific areas, he's grown inexperienced with using it on other muscles, so if he tries using it on any other area, he has a chance to completely fail, or just stop halfway through the time limit. Teleportation - By imagining himself in a certain location, Poke can use teleportation, with a certain range. He doesn't have the risk of accidentally teleporting in to objects, he'll automatically avoid it, although there is a risk, one that makes him scared to use this power in large bursts or in certain situations. He can teleport in succession, but that's if he gets lucky. Many times, he'll 'lag'. Basically, you'll see him fizzing like static from where he starts, some random distance to his destination, and then he'll just stop at some point, completely frozen(And I mean literally frozen, even in midair). Once he unfreezes, which can take a few seconds to a few minutes, he'll unable to teleport for a certain amount of time depending on how far he attempted to, also up to a few minutes. So if he lags in the middle of a fight, or if he finds himself high up in the air, he's pretty much screwed. Specialty: He's highly proficient in acts related to running, such as parkour. Other: N/A Name: Jen Forte Age: 17 Appearance: Jen Personality: Jen is very quiet and observant and tends to talk short, but doesn't not talk. When he does speak it tends to be about something very important. He's not shy, in fact he's quite the opposite and enjoys company. The more clones he has, the louder he becomes and he seems less bright. Home: Belnuru Occupation: Student Magic: "Survey Cloning"- here Specialty: He's great at being stealthy, unintentionally. Sometimes he's so light on his feet people don't realize he entered the room. Other: N/A Name: Tal Gaeta & Ember Age: 19 Appearance: Tal --- Ember Personality: Tal is always up for adventure and is very energetic, but tends to keep to herself and stick with dragons. Although she does keep to herself, she still enjoys talking to people, but isn't very good at staying friends with people since she tends to evade them as much as she can. If she isn't running about she's probably eating, or learning more about dragons. Home: Eridis Occupation: Student Magic: Dragon Link- Able to telepathically communicate with dragons. She shares even more of a connection with dragons that are her own, such as Ember. Specialty: She's very charismatic in her speaking, which is why it's more disappointing when she doesn't keep up relationships with people. Other: Her dragon, Ember, breathes fire. Since it isn't normal for dragons anymore she tends to keep quiet about it.

I remember very clearly. I also remember a crossover episode between Aladdin and Hercules. That was cool.
Only thing I've heard about Alienware is that they're overpriced and not worthy of the PC Master Race.
Mysterious Figure. Seriously though, most of the bosses in Prince of Persia (2008) were great. I can't really think of many boss fights off the top of my head that were truly amazing. I know I've seen them but I can't remember them... I guess my favorites would be Grigori(the Dragon) in Dragon's Dogma or Daimon from Dark Arisen. Grigori is probably one of the only proper dragon battles in video game history.
Your opinion is wrong.
White cases are always the best. Always.
Not mine, but it's the same case. I like white. When it comes to tech I prefer everything to be white. I'M NOT RACIST.
I already have everything picked out. Though the gear will set me back...loads. SSD always. I've seen you post about ninite everywhere! So I know that I'll use it. And I am going with Windows 8.
The right to call myself a true member of the PC Master Race.
Custom built. Though not built by my own hands. Paid under $1700.
First desktop I myself have paid for and chosen the parts for. Finally got here. It'll be awhile before I can use it though. Still gotta get a mouse, wait for my keyboard to arrive, and install an OS... Specs: i7-4790K GeForce GTX 770 2GB 16GB RAM It looks like it wants to eat me.
Defeating optional bosses for the Ultima Weapon was a terrible idea. What's the point in having the best weapon in the game if you don't need it anymore? It's not like there's a NG+. Synthing Ultima Weapon through grinding is the only good way to do it so far.
Well then.
