Lost Saga

[MightyOmega]

Just thought I'd share an old free online game I used to play all the time. It's called Lost Saga, it's a beat em up fighter and provides a ton of fun. My personal favorite aspect of the game is all the characters you can choose from and being able to switch characters mid-combo to experiment and create new combos. They have the typical characters like an Iron Knight, Cowboy, and Captain America (Justice Defender). If you're a fan of Blazblue or Guilty gear, or other big fighters, they have characters like SOL and Ragna in it.

It's basically like Super Smash Brothers as in a bunch of different heros and characters come together and fight it out. I'll just share a video and you can decide for yourself if it interests you or not, I used to be fairly competitive in it but that was ages ago, I don't play any more mainly because of not having enough time or a decent enough computer, but I just thought I'd share and let other people know what it's about.

Here's a clip from WCG 2010 that I participated in, skip to 1:53 for gameplay

Here's a more recent trailer

And here's a little Ragna vs. Hazama in the game, two of my personal favorite characters.

Enjoy! You can download it here, but it will be switched to a different company in a few weeks so this link won't work after another two weeks or so. http://www.playlostsaga.com/home.wemade

I know this is an unpopular opinion on the domains of the muhtalims, but am really I the only one who despises this chibi/anime aesthetic?

I'm right behind you on this.

What do you despise of about it? If you don't mind me asking.

It just makes it feel like the game was designed for 12 year old weebos who need constant materialization of their disgusting anime fantasies. Seriously, WTF is up with little girls having ridiculous boobs and ass? Or characters that look straight out of a comedic hentai wielding weapons? The combination of an aesthetic that's supposed to be adorable and innocent with designs that imply sex and violence just makes the whole thing look and feel retarded. And to top it off, this artistic direction is ALWAYS coupled with shitty, overdone, tasteless designs.

There's never anything clever or appealing about generic short skirts, unless you have the brain of a socially awkward 12 year old who just discovered hentai. Because guess what: these games are designed exclusively with these snots in mind. And the worst part is that now this trend has even infiltrated games with otherwise well-designed characters, like Soul Calibur (just look at Amy and her fanbase).

Seriously, GTFO with all this shit. It's retarded.
