Do's If we have to have a card system, make it better than CoM. Please. *sob* I'd rather they didn't have it but it seems it's going to be card based. Make Aqua not the typical wussy girl that runs with a prance instead of a real jog and she can actually hold her own and is a usable character. As others mentioned, let the keyblade be altered with keychains or something for some changes in Terra Don'ts Do not have Terra be another emo Cloud. It's obvious to me he goes somewhat wonky somewhere along the line but just don't let him be a total emo wuss. As someone else said, have him kick @zz. It'd be a nice change of pace. Don't do turn style combat like in FF. I like it in FF but do not want to see it in KH. I'm too babied on the cooler way to do battle. If cards is the answer, so be it but no turn style! No FF7 characters or FF8 or FF10 characters. They are featured in the present day KH games so they should not be in the past 10 years ago. It would make no sense.
Yeah, you can use Thunder too and he drops medallions. It seemed to me to be more useful than Blizzard at getting him to do so, even though Blizzard froze him. I just stuck to Thunder once I realized it.
T is a rating that means "Teen" approved. EC - Early Childhood, E - Everyone, E10+, T - Teen, M - Mature, etc. So basically anyone under the age of a teenager should have a parent warned about contents that may be inappropriate for kids younger than that.
Lexaeus just seems to be the quiet serious bulky samurai sort of guy by what I tend to perceive, that is intelligent and tried to hold things together. And yeah, I agree with the first post. It's cool that we had the chance to perceive the Org members better than the original game. They became more of what little we could tell of them.
Well, yeah, on that note, I do think there needs to be a moderator of some sort. I just guess that the wording was a bit too harsh for the need for a mod there, as in the function of the mod, but I do think one needs to be there since sometimes things can get out of hand.
Well, the problem with fessing up means he's lied to everyone including his own home life and all. There's no crime with being gay. However, there is a crime with misleading and getting married, faking out that you are something you are not etc and also being a hypocrite who advocates things against gays while being gay. I find it disgusting. It's the same thing this preacher named Ted Haggard did and it'd be nice if people would just fess up from the beginning to not be a faker and a liar. That is what makes people mad... except those that vote for people based on marriage, heterosexuality, and religion. There are too many people that consider these an important staple so that those in office 'reflect' who they are while others could give a crap less. You won't get the old people's votes to be in any office if you are gay barely. A politician in Florida had a sex change and they removed him (who became a her) from office because they said they did not vote on the person now there. In the end, I could care less if the guy is gay or straight, but he should just come clean about it. If people want more 'gays' in office etc, we need to start showing it is acceptable for them to be there and vote because the next generation is what is going to matter sometime. The sad thing is the old people well outnumber us so we are going to have fights to make it so the same white bread, family man, Christian person isn't the only way we are represented. Others do get in there but they are the vast minority. We need people that will just be 'real' and have the qualifications for the job and we as regular voting people need to start voting for them as any show up. That way we get true representation of who we are, and we also stop senators etc from feeling they have to -lie- to do a job they want to. It's the only way I see to fix these messes as they happen.
Yeah, I have to agree that BBC is usually where I go for news reports and also I check out reuters.com and some other places that seem to do -world- news and not just focus on one area. John Stewart is also great, even if he's not considered a real news man. His stuff picks apart the news and he just rux. Colbert is funny too, though of course, his views are slanted but it's all done for humor. Sometimes I go to other online news stories too if I see a report on CNN or Fox etc. I don't doubt that the news is at least -somewhat- accurate, but yes, there always seems to be a slant to the news that I don't like. It is worse in newspapers and magazines, as someone pointed out above. I can't even take those articles at all serious anymore and it's a shame. Not buying it though I suppose helps save trees. I think we all know anymore the news is slanted depending on the story and then who's telling it, but if we cross-check various sources, we can generally logically deduce what is the information that is valid versus the fancied up words added in to color it up to flavor whatever political or corporate agenda is desired. It's a shame we have to do that but reporters are bought out and journalists when young think it's otherwise, but we can all see it for ourselves. =:/
It's alright and I like the theme/ambiance with it which came out cool, but maybe if you could bring the pictures a bit more forward, and the writing. I'm having a hard time reading the words. If you need to, I can try to find better pictures as I saved a ton from the game. You could also use my sig I made now if it helps, but I do like the pic you did choose. Also, you changed your nick on me! I was trying to remember for a day or two where the heck I posted. lol Found you though. =:)
If Kairi has any role at all, it would be a small one because I don't believe she comes to Destiny Islands until possibly a year after BBS ends. Ansem the Wise, after BBS, came across 'Xehanort', his memory-lost apprentice, and after conducting the experiments and trying to halt them etc, Xehanort did his own thing and pretty well the Heartless mulched it. It was at this point I believe Kairi was sent to Destiny Islands, either by Xehanort or some hidden hand to save her, when she was a kid. If they show anything about Kairi, it might be about what happened in the past concerning Ansem the Wise and the apprentices, and the fall of Radiant Gardens, but if so, it might be a closing thing. As for Aqua, she seems to be one of the main protagonists so I'm sure she's rather critical to the story. She seems to be an interesting character and I hope she will be a female that kicks butt and has a good strong character about her. It would be nice to see as the other females (other than Larxene) have all been rather meek. (Unless you count Tifa and Yuffie).
I think the only one I do not truly like running right now is Hillary Clinton who has a scandal attached to her that she got away with. Also, having her here in NY, I can say she isn't good enough to be president. She's also wishy washy on a lot of things that have to be dealt with that her husband knew of. I have nothing against a female running for office and hope someday a decent one will step forward to do so, but she's riding on a fame she doesn't deserve. I can't say anymore I care whether the candidate is republican or democrat as they both seem to be bought out by corporations, so I just try to investigate each person and look for the platform on what they say they wish to change before I vote. That way I see if they hold similar interests to myself and what I'd like to see done, or not. It takes work but many of the politicians running have had sites even in the past to go and check out so that you can see that and make the best choice. Also, investigating what you can on their past too and reading through reports with an open-mind (because many reports differ in how they treat the politicians) is critical.
If we went by physical characteristics alone, no, the human species is not the deadliest and in fact, we'd suffer a lot and be not on top of the food chain etc. Many carnivores are stronger than humans, let alone the fact that some of the herbivores could kick our sorry bums. It's the reason we are omnivores and not just predators more than likely. =:) However, because we are sentient beings, as others have said, it puts us in a higher category. What we lack in finesse and power, we make up for with the development of tools, working together, cognitively thinking of ways to provide shelter and comforts etc. We can destroy whole environments or meld with them. The sentient part is what truly makes humans a unique animal with an adaptability potential to go with nature, rise above it in some cases, and exploit it in others. I would consider with that being said, that we are indeed the potentially most dangerous of the animals. After all, we can even study them to find ways to avoid being victims to them and have weapons enough to put animals down. We've also been involved in some species' extinctions. The wholly mammoth is pretty well understood to have gone extinct by humans driving them over cliffs and then they'd go down and get the meat etc they wanted. We think of ways to take down things 'greater' than we are in physical nature. If other animals had our intellect, we would not be where we are set in the scheme of things, nor would we have all we do about us now.
How is it possible? The same way RoxasxAxel, RikuxSora, etc is possible. I don't get into pairings really of any kind unless it's so obvious that it could happen I'd have to hit myself with a brick and go out cold to not say 'yeah, it's plausible'. It's just people having fun and letting their imaginations take them to wherever, which isn't harmful even if some of it at times can be annoying when it's overplayed.
I do agree with Rosey. The thread was posted probably because enough people have said Zexion is emo and though I feel the case is totally the opposite, I don't see why the question shouldn't be raised at all. There are too many fanfics and fangurl/fanbois out there that try to pin him as emo so I can see why to inquire about other people's opinions. No need to bash for the question itself.
I think in this Terra would, though I don't think it would be a walk in the park for him and Sephiroth wouldn't hold back as he did with Sora in the duel. Terra has a Keyblade which would harm Sephiroth, as Sora did. I don't think either though could 'destroy' one another, but I think Terra would be the victor after a seriously awesome battle.
That was interesting and possibly is the reason for the color choices, Zandyne. Good theory there.
Xemnas: "It's been plaguing me to know if your real name is Mansex or not. I'll be running away really far now. " Xigbar: "Duuuuuude!" Xaldin: "So, you lost to a scholar non-athletic girl who elbowed you. How's that feel? Don't answer that with violence please." Vexen: "Riku Replica says he hates your guts." Lexaeus: "Do you drink a lot of Red Bulls and take steroids for that?" Zexion: "SoooOoo..what's in that Lexicon anyway?" Saïx: "Bad dog, no biscuit." Axel: "Will you go hang out at a college frat party with me? Just don't bring any drugs." Demyx: "Do you play the sitar with your toes?" Luxord: "So, we're going to Vegas and playing craps and you can manipulate the dice, right? I'll buy you dinner after or something." Marluxia: "Just go away now. You take up space. Back whence you came, foul creature!" Larxene: "I'll pay you $1000 bucks if you off Marlosexia." Roxas: "Don't cry, Loz...I mean Roxas." Naminé: "We can hang out but if I start forgetting where my keys went to repeatedly, I know who to blame." Sora: "If I was as happy and oblivious as you, I bet I'd be unemployed and disowned. How do you DO IT? Also, how'd you get outside in the middle of a raging storm when you were supposed to be eating? Were you ever grounded for that?" Riku: "You can come to the frat party with Axel and me, but only if you keep the kids at home." Kairi: "So, still practicing those moves and going to hang out with the boys or will you give up and go back to playing Barbie dolls? Choice 1 is the better answer." Olette: "Hayner or Pence, Olette. Which one do you have it for?" Hayner: "Did you actually earn any munny while Roxas worked his butt off?" Pence: "Think you can hax0r Norad? I've always wanted to do the live-action version of 'War Games'. Aqua: "I know you are not related to Kairi. You kick too much butt." Terra: "Just answer me early before KH BBS comes out...do you become Xehanort or not?!" Ven: "You become Roxas in your future. Just thought you'd like to know early that somehow your life is shortened in some manner I'm not sure of yet, and well, it sucks to be you." Riku Replica: "You looked really bad when Namine messed up your heart and you were just lying there with your eyes open. So um...I think you've earned the right to go to the frat party too."
Hmm, my post appears to have not taken when I wrote it a couple days ago. This seems to happen now and then and I start to wonder if they aren't deleted or somehow it just did not take. Anyway, apology accepted. I think we agree on much except for the stance of really if Darkness equates to evil and if Light equates to good. I do see what you were saying about hatred being a component to Darkness and I agree there but I don't think it's the only thing. Another component to darkness and what I often feel can also be the true opposite word of love is 'apathy', or simply not caring at all. This is why I say the Nobodies fit into the scheme of it too. To not care and cause misery can be just as bad as caring and hating so you can cause misery. I tend to still see Darkness more as a 'Destructive' component as an element rather than just an 'evil' one. Of course, when people use it for evil, bad purposes, and the lure is stronger to with a person who has a Heart, often there will be rage in that person. I do think though that just because the Nobodies were not supposed to exist, it doesn't mean they did not cause Darkness in others and motivate things to their way, so I can't find though they are 'neutral' element beings, that their rational thoughts and deeds made them not neutral. It's like to me saying that because someone wields the element of fire and the person is cold-hearted and methodical, though this fire should be passionate and moving, the person is still of a fire element so that's how they should be considered. 'What' a person is does not make the person neutral. If you take a stand against an opposing thing, you are clearly against something so the state of being is not the same as the predicament that being has chosen for itself. I do think otherwise though, we pretty well agree and I do see more where you are coming from. Thank you for explaining it and bearing with me.
He didn't have much of a choice. How many people did the Nobodies kill to 'exist'? Even if you can feel sympathy to an enemy, you still have to stand up and do what must be done. If he did nothing then he would have been condoning thousands if not more deaths by what the Org did with the Heartless. So, sure, he killed, but he had little choice in the matter. There's a difference with having to kill to stop someone from doing something hideous because they won't stop otherwise versus someone that's out on a killing spree because they feel like it.
I voted for Sora. If he put his heart into it, he'd win by virtue alone if nothing else. Roxas wasn't more skilled than Sora. He was more -angry- and Sora, being the expert he is at using what he has in skill to the fullest, while maintaining a positive attitude could triumph easier. This is not to say I don't think Roxas couldn't win if Sora wasn't prepared for the type of fury fighting Roxas does, but if prepared to deal with that, I think he'd take him.
All of the forms to me had some symbolism too. Some I agree with you on, though of course I elaborate more because I think I have a love of words. Here's some of my thoughts. All of the forms to me were what Sora 'could become' as the suit boosted his powers, abilities etc beyond where he was in KH2. Valor: Came from Sora merging powers with Goofy. (obviously) Valor implies -strength- and -honor-. Goofy is a defender and Sora is pretty strong and together they are a noble team. It to me symbolizes that Sora can be valorous and noble, steadfast and brave in the future, and it is part of becoming stronger as a Keyblade wielder. Wisdom: Came from Sora merging powers with Donald. (obviously) Wisdom is what Sora can learn as he grows and becomes more powerful, and also to gain intuitiveness and learn from mistakes. Also, he could have more magical potential. Master: Came from Sora and his other two friends, or could come from any two friends close to him or Mickey as mentioned. This is when I believe Sora would combine wisdom and valor together, as in knowledge and strength merge and his powers have grown but he also has the responsibility for them and won't be duped so easy. This is where probably most Keybladers would stop advancing. Final: Roxas coming out of Sora t lend "a helping hand". - Not really sure I agree that Roxas has anything to do with it by what I say next. I think it's Sora in harmony. Hmm, Final Form to me is kind of like an ascension in a way past emotional strife, burdens etc and to find inner peace, power, valor and wisdom. It's almost like a state of Nirvana or just feeling complete and having risen above the turmoils that might drag someone down. Anti: Came from the dark part of Sora's heart coming out. I agree here that the potential for Sora to turn to Darkness is there which is why when Final Form occurs, this is drastically decreased as a potential. Anytime before Final, it shows the struggle between gaining more knowledge and power, and falling to the wayside with all there is to go against. Since everyone has Darkness in their hearts and even Sora at times was made to be full of anxiety, fear, and at times angry, it's a path he -could- take if he forgot things and let them go bad. Limit: I think this is a journey to the past in a way to show the power he has had then and yet show how he has advanced onwards and that has grown. It's so he doesn't forget his roots in a way.
