Which doesn’t track with the fact the most childish person she’s like is Valens and Fandaniel, who ARE sundered.

At the end of the day the whole thing is that Athena is the worst case scenario for what any Ancient could turn out, from their society as a whole, to Hermes, to Venat. Especially as she would have used the Final Days to her advantage cause that’s the kind of person she is.

She’s a malignant narcissist who sought to destroy the Ancients to satisfy her megalomania, and had zero love for any living creature that wasn’t herself. Which fundamentally makes her the opposite of the Ancients as a whole.

Finally made it to 60, oh jeez, the new beast Chakra moves look like Street Fighter moves.

It seems like my decision to switch back to French for EW looks better and better with each patch.

Not for 6.0 per se, especially since hearing French voices for the first time felt a little bit off at first, and while I like Venat's French VA, I think the English one is a little bit better (and the more flowery translation fits some of the scenes more).

But it's been a complete slam dunk since 6.1 as far as the French dub is concerned. Scarmiglione, Barbariccia, Cagnazzo and Rubicante have all been utterly awesome to listen to, and so were all four Panda bosses.

(Seriously, I can't speak highly enough of the four fiends' French VA - considering some people have had reserves about the entire story arc, having them sound like saturday morning anime villains was wonderful for the sheer entertainment value)

Hearing Barbariccia dropping the FR equivalent of a F-Bomb during her transition was awesome.

New mount on the cash shop, it's the boss of Eden 9 ( The Eden Shadowkeeper). I'm kind of relieved this is what it is after seeing the mount model datamined, I was worried it would be the acheivement reward for doing Eden 4/8/12 on Savage with a full BLU group, which would probably put it well out of my range of obtaining.

I'm reminded of that one poster who was super salty over a cute mount being locked behind the savage raid.

Okay, but for real, I'm kinda upset about that. That super adorable axolotl should be an Island mount!

Ironically I have more problems with Island rewards than savage mounts.[lol]

Yeah the Axolotl as a Savage mount doesn't make much sense. Savage usually lands badass mounts, while non-combat endeavors (or combat-adjacent ones) give cute ones.

Maybe axolotl is a secret badass. Years from now Pandaemonium Ultimate will have an axolotl phase.

What's the next Ultimate supposed to be anyway?

The Dragonsong War was a clear story arc, but Stormblood is a bit wonky in that regard. There hasn't been a Triad ultimate, so it's doubtful it will focus on the Auspices...there's probably something to do with Tsukuyomi, but she has little in common with Shinryu.

I'd say something Shinryu based.

It won't be Shb. They always do raid, then main boss. UCOB, UWU, TEA, DSR, TOP. Next is going to be a Shinryu based thing.

The only issue I see here is that Shinryu's place in the story does not end in Stormblood, unlike Ultima Arma & Thordan + Nidhogg.

[up]x5 Neither did Omega's, and they added Alphatron into TOP. They could always pull something similar with Shinryu, or potentially have the entire thing be a Zenos flavored fight, meaning each phase is a different location/fight with him. So it starts with Ala Mhigo flavor fight and ends with the epic final battle with him in EW.

Honestly, an ultimate with Zenos would be hella fun and fitting.

But enough of him for a bit, so I've had a bit of a problem with my game, and I can't log into my main for reasons.

I'll have to reinstall my game.

How do I save my UI settings like where I put my buttons in so I can import it when I reinstall?

I do NOT want to fix the UI all over again.

Zenos ult... I don't want.

I would prefer a normal difficulty fight first ala Varis. He is too important of a character to just throw him in an ult with new phases.

ScubaWolf from South Carolina Since: Feb, 2020
#24525: Jun 13th 2023 at 9:11:31 PM

They'd probably save Varis for a later ultimate. Namely Endsinger ultimate, or whatever they call that one, since it'd likely combine Endsinger with Anima and Zodiark.
