X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

It was surprisingly hard to kill Miranda.

I was actually looking up the suicide mission stuff to see what allows certain people to die, and Miranda is apparently really OP. Even if she doesn't pass the "loyal and ideal" check for second fire team leader, she still survives. If she's the squadmate that would be killed if your biotic barrier fails, she survives and the other one dies instead. She just won't die.
Maybe it's because the Collectors are a little... distracted whenever she moves into their field of view.

It's because she's Shepard's TIM-appointed Dragon. She can only be defeated by a plucky group of heroes that she defeated in a humiliating manner earlier in the storyline.

I have been waiting for that pokemon remake for ages, emerald being my favorite, this is a dream come true. Fuck man I don't think I will be seeimg the light this fall and winter. I also won't have any cash xD to make awesome games coming out. Sims 4, Pokemon Omega and Alpha, Civilization Beyond Earth. and so on.

I'm just glad I don't have to learn another generation of pokemon since I barely know all of the gen 6 ones as it is.

I've always just learned them as I played. It also helps that the number of Gen six pokemon is only about,what, 100?

There's one question, though.
Wallace or Steven?

According to Iwata, they're full remakes so I'd assume Steven.

Wow, I just completed mass effect 3 and without any spoilers, I can say I got the "best" ending and I didn't even know until I checked online.

 

[PrismaCube]

Nice

 

[PrismaCube]

[Gahlo]

Well dur. It's an Xcom thread without a running season.

 

[ZombieSplitter53]

Anyonw playing Bravely Default? I'm really getting into it, and I'd recommend it to any fans of JRPGs.

 

[PrismaCube]

Sadly

I want to get into jrpgs but for me the plot is what turns me away like the same with anime.
