Hey to anyone who’s played Asura’s Wrath. I’m watching the cutscenes to get caught up on the story but was this game released in separate chunks like a Telltale game? The story keeps getting broken up with “to be continueds” and seems to be in an episodic format.

The game was simulating anime formats. The levels are labeled as episodes, and at the end of the episode they give you that "to be continued" bit to hammer in the point more. It's also why you get cut ins, simulating ad breaks.

Only the final 4 episodes have to be bought as DLC, since the game wasn't successful enough to warrant a sequel, and thus they had to condense events into those 4 episodes.
 
Hot take but I’ve always thought that cloud displacement feats are the single dumbest feats in all of powerscaling. In a hobby that is full of “the author didn’t think too hard about it” feats, cloud feats are at the absolute top of that list. Especially since cloud feats can be calced to be way beyond basically every other feat a character has done. Seeing a character be put at country level because they displaced a bunch of clouds always makes me roll my eyes.

I definitely agree

Storm-related feats are also a good example of that

Like, even though the feats are indeed valid, they are the peak of "No one ever wrote this feat based on the amount of power needed to it be accomplished"
 

BlackDarkness' sleep paralysis demon, watch out.


Its a mess and Im still not sure wtf is DB's scaling with universes. They had Discord at infinite but Bill was "4D+", so I assume prior uni feats unless specified as timelines, are not 4D in DB. Hence why DBS and comics uni sizes and feats technically arent 4D, but say destroying "Omniversal cosmology" of comics duo is like at least infinite Ds via GalactusUnicron blackboxes.

Maybe they will use uni scaling since G1 KratosAsura blog had calcs like that that made them stronger than universal.
They said Bill's multiverse was an infinite "4D+" and stated the Nightmare Realm as a higher plane that that in the same black box, the implication being its higher dimensional, so he was definitely above 4D there lol.

I never understood why DB would say stuff like “It would take 5 gajillion pounds of TNT for Storm to create this hurricane.” That means nothing! Storm isn’t hitting people with that amount of force. She’s not using some kind of resource (Ki,chakra,etc) that can be used for other forms of attack to make that hurricane. It’s a meaningless feat. It’s the power of the actual hurricane that matters, not how much energy she needed to pull out of the ether to make it.
 
fair, but was it not obvious they were going to hype up Leon considering it was a Gen 8 adaptation?
I knew they would, I just think they should've had Ash fight all 8 regions' worth of Champions and had someone else as the final fight. Idk, maybe a certain main villain who lasts the ENTIRE SERIES and has still not been defeated. Giovanni is still in control of a massive criminal organization and the world is fully under threat by him.

I'm happy with everything except Leon being the final champion and Giovanni staying in power.

Yeah it's odd that Giovanni was never beaten. Makes me wonder if he'll be shown in that new series, along with Jessie, James, and Meowth.

The idea was to be released in episodes like a tv drama and the last eps were released as such too with longer wait in between, but you had to pay for them up to like 7 dollars, which nowadays isnt a big deal, but back then it was outrageous to pay for that much separate eps just to get the clear ending to it
 
Most scaling is dumb.
You know I can stand some stuff since depending on the series getting a general gauge of power can be useful but in a disconnected franchise like Pokemon that has such a wide variety of different parts is really dumb, especially when dialogue in the game goes agienst the even notion.

Cynthia scaling to the Creation Trio shouldn't be weird BECAUSE of this statement.
 
I wonder if dei has a mega screenshot about ash winning the alola league.
IDK why you think I would, lol, I would only save screenshots of characters if I am obsessed with hating them, or loving them. I don't know a lot about Pokémon. I have dozens of Kratos, Bill and Rem pictures though.
 
I’m still mad that we never got a proper Leon vs Cynthia fight. Would’ve been nice to know exactly how close they were in terms of scaling considering how hard Leon stomped Diantha who is also a champ.

Funny you mention this - back when the top 8 was airing, I actually napkin theorycrafted a bracket for if Masters was double elim, and not single:
