And then I tried the opposite: superimposing Xion's theme on to other sad events, like Axel's death (hell, even some non-KH scenes). Lo and behold, they all seemed exponentially sadder.
This may just attest to the fact that I am an emotionally shallow being who is more moved by what I hear than my fellow man, but it still proves I don't care for Xion.
You should all try it, pretty fun.
Or moar liek
Pretty sad D;
So, did yoooou do any? xD;
No idea. Mods having a play, I s'pose.
Hang on, I'll find one.
“You go to see how he is every day, don’t you? You’re so kind, Poppet.”
It's so, so weird. Cause, normally these parts are written in third person limited, but... for Xion, they put all these inflections that let you know it's HER thinking it. Idk, I have to look at it more.
In any case, I wonder if everyone else has the dusks do their laundry?
...I have Riku's com novel and I am planning to do it after the Days one...
Oh hell yeah. I never bothered to until now.
Idk, I think if I play the Japanese version I'll ruin it like I did with Days, and get angry about translations like with the Saix and Axel scene, or the 'who will I eat ice cream with?' askjdvghbdfdssd still mad.
Yeah, like Xigbar did. Idk, some part of me just sees Days as this fanfic. If it actually does tie into things later, maybe I can change my mind.
Axel says in the novels something, wait:
So, pehaps they don't have all their memories? But then again, this scene in itself contradics canon, because here, Roxas sees Axel again for the first time after CO in Twilight Town rather than the lobby. So, make of it what you will...
Permanently banned.
Nope. Haha, the 'gold' in 'goldpanner' is tricking you? I haven't done nearly enough posts, cause my usual policy is, if someone's said it don't repeat it, and if it's going to cause a scene, don't bother. I only usually post when I really think I have something to add or really feel strongly about something.
Yes. See, Axel's role was very vague, and I think everyone and their dog had their own version of it. I personally thought their relationship dynamic was something like... Axel being half-snark and half-goofball, and Roxas putting up with him (or not XD). Riku and Sora's relationship just seemed totally different. Childhood friends, Sora was the goof, and Riku was the slightly teasing older brother-figure he made the benchmark to beat, with Kairi to balance and motivate them.
Then, they retconned Xion into the story, and Axel's role was set as the big-brother type who was the benchmark (of knowing everything).
Doitdoitdoit it will be the oldy Roxi video I'd ever watch.
fantasy08 said:Xion being a sue and having a forced sob story doesn't bother me as much as her monopolizing the entire Days plot.
Aqua, who I like already, kinda is a sue. She has anime blue hair, looks like Kairi, and has a key-blade. However, chronologically Aqua was first in all those things so that would mean every main female after her is a sue.
Anyway, I could have tolerated the sueness, and the eye-rolling let's pull at the viewers heartstrings plot if she was more like a background character. Which she should have been since she was a retcon asspull. I don't like that the majority of the dialogue, dairy entries, story itself, the fmv cutscenes, and secret reports were about her. This was supposed to be Roxas, and by extension the already established organization members, game. Not hers, and there lies me biggest problem with Xion.
Oh Xion I could have loved you. If you wasn't such a monopolizing, ass-pulling edition to an already set canon. Her being a sue( a sign of bad writing as is) just threw the putrid icing on an already bs cake.
Oh by the way goldpanner nice save for the hate-club!
Rages at lag. Someone delete this
<333 it's okay. Ahahaa~ post count uppage ;D
I mean, I would never look at the Lion King and imagine Simba's walk to take his place as king without King of Pride Rock playing. It's what made that scene so epic
Yes!! Haha, then I played Xion's theme over it. And the whole meaning changed XDD;;
Either way, one of us should make a video out of this and post it on YouTube or something with THE idea in mind, and with different scenes. I tried it, like you suggested, and you'd be right.
Do it~ like, a montage of all sad and not-so-sad scenes from random things with her theme XD;
Can someone lend me a fucking knife, please? Either that, or I'll roll my eyes until they continue to roll over to the point where they can't be stopped. It's this type of shit that gets me pissed off. Oh, Xion, you're so kind. Oh, Xion, you're such a poor thing. Oh, oh, oh.
Don't forget,
“You worried?” Xion nodded at Xigbar. “Heh heh, you’re so cute, Poppet. I can take you to see him after.”
This is tragic: in the worst way possible if this is what we are actually reading out of it. Seriously, just fucking call it the Xion game, and be done with it.
And it gets worse, and worse... you can have the knife when I'm done with it =___=
I don't really give a damn. I rather just not have her in this at all, period. Yeah, I'm fairly irritated now >/.
This is exactly how I feel. She's like cancer, wrecking the body.
Either way, though, the Dusks appear to do a lot of things. I mean, in the game, they actually gossiped, and that's how some heard on what was occurring in CO. But I thought the whole joke of them playing pranks, doing domestic tasks for the members, etc., were only manga integrated. Guess I was wrong. They're servants, lol.
Well, novels are just another kind of manga-verse, I guess.
I wonder where the laundry room in the castle is? Do they have showers? Kitchen? xD That's probably the most interesting thing there. I just ignored Xion completely. I only happened to be reading Xigbar's line, and, well, it just had to unfortunately be that.
It is interesting. Yet another thing that could be expanded upon. I wish I could ignore her ;___;
YAY! I liked how last time we got into what Zexion was thinking, and how he didn't like/hated Vexen. Despite that the scene was in FM+, as aforementioned, it's completely different when you actually know what the characters are thinking. I hope we get the Sora part of it as well. You get so many tidbits. It's everything that I want the game to be: though CoM did an excellent job portraying its members with balanced screen time. Without losing Sora as the perspective, or Riku's. 358/2 Days just failed in so many ways. You couldn't matter unless it was with Axel or some of the other two.
I loved CoM, too :3 I love the basement gang, and so this novel seemed perfect. Idk how much Sora is in it, though; it's Reverse/Rebirth, the Riku novel. Sora has TWO of his own XDD;;
All we can do is correct those who are not informed about the translation error in the internet whenever they say Roxas left Axel out >.>. But, unless you truthfully get attached to the characters, I don't see how you will get mad if something's off. Unless you just want the right translations overall and that they suck xD.
Aw, they don't suck. I mean, localisation is a really hard job. You have to make everything sound natural, AND fit the mouth flaps, AND still keep the original meaning. So, I appreciate that. It still makes me feel sad when certain meaning gets lost, though...
As of the moment, it's pointless. And despite all this undeserved attention on Xion, she ended up being shit the most, considering the real hints of BBS did not concern her minus one minuscule part with Xigbar that just makes Sora or Roxas more important due to whose memories she's wielding.
Too early to tell ;___; the cancer spread to the deep dive scene, after all. Who knows what other games it can poison from here...
You were though! It was probably when you were a translator. Or maybe I was seeing things. But I could swear you had some color at one point ^^;.
Lol, I'm sure I haven't!! Cause, I've never been a translator here. Only on HEARTSTATION.ORG... maybe you're mixing it up for the forums that were over there ages ago?? But I dont think I had colour there, either... even so, if I was a former staff member, I'd be pink right now, too...
My version was that they were best friends, the same way Sora and Riku were, but it didn't end well due to the scene we see in the flashback. Axel's words and the way it was portrayed made it feel like they had a close friendship than simply "I tolerate you". Especially when he died. It just wasn't ever seen or expanded upon.
See, I know Axel felt strongly. But we never had much hints as to how Roxas felt. I thought Roxas was pricklier than he turned out to be, and his 'toleration' of Axel was more of a front. Like, he did care deep down, but on the outside he was resistant.
They screwed it up, like everything Days has, because when they said Axel "changed", I did not understand the difference at all, considering he acted the same from the beginning >.>. And, this is where some might differ depending on preference, but I always saw Axel as the big brother figure for Roxas in the first place. After all, Xion wasn't there when it was just the two of them.
Ugh, I know. And, I just saw Roxas as more mature than he turned out to be ^^;
The only thing Xion did was write herself into Axel being the big brother figure for her as well. I would have simply preferred it if Axel just hated her guts. She didn't belong, and I probably would've appreciated her better.
It would have made more sense. ONE of the bishies should have hated her, just one. Riku, Roxas or Axel. Saix doesn't count, cause he was one of Days' typecast antagonist >__>
Except her forced sob story was the thing that monopolised the entire plot ;___;
Hang on a second. 150 Years of Mary Sue, by Pat Pflieger <---read this, please!
<3 Thank you!! I wasn't brave enough to open the first one, in the face of so much heated opposition. But, knowing there were other haterz made me want to keep it alive, even if I'm still not sure I want to be known primarily as 'that chick that hates Xion'...
When you're both done with it. Pass it to me. Even the written page is not safe from her bs monopolizing.And it gets worse, and worse... you can have the knife when I'm done with it =___=
But, before I get to reply, is anyone spoiling themselves for BBS?
But, before I get to reply, is anyone spoiling themselves for BBS?
WELCOME namine_ftw! Don't worry, we don't hate as much as you think we do. We're pretty sensible xD. Minus, the, uh, tags, I mean >.>. But if you want to let out negative feelings overall, that's the place here.
Yay! I could definitely use a place where I can just rant about her. And I actually kinda really like the tags.
From what I'm reading about BBS, it is BY FAR the best out of the three new games.
Aqua is amazing, no question about it-
-and the game actually has a purpose and isn't pointless filler. It's kind of hard to make a call, since there's still a lot of info that's not out yet, but as a whole I generally like what I see. There are some things I'm a bit disappointed with (there always is, lol), but overall I'm satisfied.
BUT YEAH DON'T SPOIL ANYMORE THAN THAT, fantasy08! x.x I'm not disappointed in Isa and Lea because I knew it was fanservice from the beginning. That's why I was like ">.>" when people were all "don't say that! They might have an important role". Yeah, right. Hello, this is Nomura. Still, I never expected Terra's story to be sad. I just thought his path to darkness would be like Riku's: which wasn't that sad until he started to redeem. Just don't tell me why it's sad, I can't wait to find out on my own.
BUT I'M SO GLAD AQUA IS GREAT! Before I say that I now have my female antagonist and protagonist pair OT2, I need to play it. But I'm so happy that I'm getting good news so far on her. That's all I wanted to hear. How does Ventus rank? Rather, how would you rate the game so far? I need to know if it's really worth waiting and buying for.
Would you like to see the intro at-lease or would you consider that a spoiler lolMan, it's going to be so difficult to stay away for this game.
Considering the other two, it didn't even really have to try, to be honest :/.
Second good news about her. I guess it was worth it to hype about her awesomeness early. Because she actually gave good vibes unlike a certain other character. And from what I hear, she's delivering.
I'm afraid to go to the Aqua Fanclub to celebrate, since it's bound to be spoilerified.
It never was pointless filler to me. It just has too much to be called such. And I always did view it as a should-be main game, but it couldn't be one only because Sora isn't the main character. Yet, thanks for the heads up. Now I got to get ready to buy a PSP and be in bliss ;P. Hell, if I bought Days for the plot to be all about Xion's poor suffering, might as well buy BBS. I hope this doesn't take too long to release here D:. I'll try not to get too hyped, though xD.
