Last Post Wins

First topic message reminder :

Greetings!

I'm here from the Amiibo Dojo forums, where a game was initiated called Last Post Wins, which, as I stated in the Description, relies on a simple set of rules.

If your post is the most recent one (implying nobody replies) for a delay of 24 hours, you win the round, and we move onto the next one.

I guess it's active now. Delay is 24 hours for victory.

:yeah boi:
one time everyone got Shaq'd

Oh yes I remember this

It should happen again

-Plays Xenoblade Chronicles X-

Arts? I think you meant Skills.

-Later on, discussion about Skells-

NO! SKILLS!

lol, that game was the bomb.

Too bad I got lost so easily, even with a map...

The pacing when it comes to the Skell seems kinda off to me.

If you have something on the box's cover, it's implied you'll get that relatively early. This was not the case, and I'm not even talking about ones that can fly like the one on the box. No, you get the cheap robot made of cardboard boxes that controls like it has no steering wheel later.


When the game's earlier segments put so much emphasis on Skells, it doesn't send across the message "I want one.". It sends "Why don't I have one?", which the game only replies with.
"Later! Remember that game before this one? Xenoblade Chronicles 3D, where we named Skills Arts, and passives were renamed to Skills? Yeah! Play with more of that! "
Then after you wrecked a ton of stuff, wondering where your mech is, you finally get a chance to get your own doomsday device, only to figure out you were being teased and you had to do some other stuff first.
I'm not saying Skells should be given immediately, but they were definitely late. Some other games I know of reference parts of it shown later in their artwork, but it's not nearly to such an extent as Xenoblade Chronicles X does.

Terraria, for example, generally shows the Eye of Cthulu in its artwork. The Xbox One version shows the Twins instead. The Eye of Cthulu is an early boss, but during the gameplay, you'll see Demon Eyes, which isn't like teasing about Skells, since it compliments gameplay rather than being the main focus. Later, you get the Eye of Cthulu, which will amplify the importance of the first boss as it's also the one on the cover. The Twins will be an even bigger awe-inspiring moment since you fought Demon eyes, went up the chain to the Eye of Cthulu and then you made it to The Twins. You know by now how bosses are, and you might be scared of them since they're the ones in the artwork.

Yeah, I couldn't agree more.

Getting your Skell that late into the game, going out to hunt enemies that only spawn in specific areas, and then going scavenger hunting for rare drops while hoping that the RNG gives you want you want, is just tedious- if ya ask me.

I think the posts here are counted, yet grant no coins.

I like that, it shows that although you didn't make a lot of posts granting the currency, you've still been considerably active.
