Nice. I wish i could play that game now but I'm holding off on any new games until I get a new graphics card. Are there boss battles? What's the combat like?

You obviously didn't play the first Nier.

He actually could have reflected the thing's beams with the Hylian shield or a guardian's shield. hehe

I didn't know you could do it with any shield. haha. The Hylian shield never breaks, though.

And still, doing a parry against a rapid beam takes execution skills.

Platinum games worked on it and it shows. It's an action RPG but it draws very heavily from Platinum's character action game roots.
Not only are there boss battle but a lot of them are pretty awesome.

Platinum developed the game, but its also a Yoko Taro directed game so it's weird as fuck. like weird in a good way but also in a crazy fucking weird way.
Yoko Taro is just a weird dude. it's nice he finally got a dev team that can actually make good gameplay, because that's the thing that was sorely lacking in most of his past games, had they actually played well, Drakenguard and Nier probably would of been masterpieces.

Nope. In fact I have never heard of Nier until recently.

I've got such a craving for good boss battles at the moment. I played through aragami recently and while it's a great game it's severely lacking in the boss battle department. There are only like 2 or 3 of them in the entire game.

The first Nier was still good, though. But you can't go wrong with Platinum Games.

I've got such a craving for good boss battles at the moment.

Have you tried...
Bloodborne? Dark Souls? Nioh?

Street Fighter 3 Third Strike? Capcom VS SNK 2? Spectral VS Generation? Guilty Gear XX? (Each final/super boss is atrociously hard.)

Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts 2?

Sephiroth in KH2. Hoo boy. Came SO close to beating him but never could do it. If I beat every single story boss in Bloodborne, I can surely handle him now.

Haters gonna hate. Who cares about them?

Well ya know. Best to avoid any dertailments of how "IT'S AN ABOMINATION TO THE SERIES HOW DARE YOU I BET YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS NOT ORIGINALLY DEVELOPED AS A STAR FOX TITLE GRAAAAAAAAAAAAH"

There are actually tournaments and groups in Québec City and Montréal, but both cities are 1-2 hour of driving from my village.

Aww. So I guess you dun know about the *dirtier underbelly* of these cons either. Ah, well. Gotta try somewhere else there.

My pleasure.

It appears impossible to hold a conversation with someone online for more than 10 minutes before someone says "Hey, you should check this and this and this out." ;B
