vibrantblade Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 This is pretty obvious, but I am new here, so decided to introduce myself before jumping headfirst into the forums. So....hello everyone! B)/> On the internet, I am commonly known as Vibrantblade, so if you have seen this name before, there is a pretty good chance that it was me. About me? Well, first of all, I am new to the whole Eastern (Japanese) universe. My eyes were opened late July of 2012 (NieR) and watched my first anime late August (Persona 4: The Animation). Second anime? Sayonara Zetsobou Sensei. I had a wonderful sensei showing me the ropes, and he decided to let me watch that as early as possible to see the craziness that is Anime. Needless to say, it got me hooked. Since then, I have watched 2-3 dozen shows and movies and I proudly call myself an Otaku. If i am not at work or in classes, I am at home either gaming or watching anime. So check out my MAL if you like, same username. As for Visual Novels, I have only read one, Ever 17. And I must say, it was worth all those hours. One of the main reasons why I am here is to experience new and exciting VNs. I think that sums up my intro. You will mostly see me in the Anime section of the forums as well as in the VN section, on the looking out for my second VN. I look forward to conversing with you all in the forum, so lets be friends, kay? Quote
solidbatman Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 This guy.... oh wait. I have a job to do. Welcome to the forums! We're glad to have you! That sensei sounds like a great person and everyone should love that sensei and want to be just like him and look up to him and give him gifts and presents. Anyway, ask around and I'm sure that you'll find a lot of great suggestions for a second VN. Hope you enjoy it here! Quote
JeMhUnTeR Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 hummmmm hey there is that you on osu!~? (yeah I think so lol) hello and welcome to this lovely site Quote
vibrantblade Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 Yes, I play osu. Started a few days ago. Im still a bit rusty, but I am loving it. Quote
Fujimoto Takashi Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Nice to see someone who has played NieR, that game was epic in many ways, that is if you could get past the boring combat... now, with that aside, welcome! May your stay here in the forums be long and prosper! Quote
Widi Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Heya welcome to the forums vibrantblade Hope you enjoy with this community Quote
shcboomer Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Welcome to the forums, you should hop on the IRC and meet some of the regulars. XD Quote

May your stay here in the forums be long and prosper! NieR brother! but...b...boring combat? i must say, the combat was pretty interesting in that game. Wasn't the best, but it was something i enjoyed immensely. Now, sidequests? Some of them were tedious to an extent in which it became more of a major chore rather than fun. shcboomer, Ill check it out one of these days. But first, I would like to get used to this forum. Everyone else, thank you for your warm welcomes Quote
Ragnar Matryoshka Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Hiya vibrantblade, welcome to fuwanovel Nice prof pic!

(Mainly the IRC meme but you can start your own topic xD) I hope you'll find your 2nd VN here. Quote
Mikel Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Welcome to Fuwanovel ^^ Hope you have a great time around here Quote
Tay Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Welcome! I've been around the VN scene for a while, but similarly only recently started exploring the anime/manga side of Japanese culture. We'll have to compare notes sometime! Again, welcome to Fuwanovel! Glad to have you! Quote

Kendjin Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Very Early 20s And thank you Kendjin for the lovely cake Does the girl come with it? No..... I uh need to return her. Quote
Fujimoto Takashi Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 NieR brother! but...b...boring combat? :huh:/> i must say, the combat was pretty interesting in that game. Wasn't the best, but it was something i enjoyed immensely. Now, sidequests? Some of them were tedious to an extent in which it became more of a major chore rather than fun. Sorry, boring was a bad choice of words...It can be quite fun with you jumping around and slicing away your foes with indiscriminate justice, what I wanted to say is that it was extremely easy and simple, to the point it could take away all the fun, I mean, buy the Phoenix spear and smash the attack button, tell me if the bosses arent crying already. At least the story makes up for it and those chores (a.k.a sidequests) only one of them was worth doing If i recall correctly...it involved a certain old lady...Im sure you know wich one. Quote

Then i agree with you, simple is a good word for it. I changed my styles between bosses to keep it lively. But magic spells were pretty legit, always fun to use those. And you mean the story and music. Been almost a year since i played the game, and yet i still listen to the OST on a regular basis. And yup, i know what you talking about...dat old lady :') Im fixing to replay the game on my one year anniversary of me playing it. Going to be in a few short months, cant wait. Quote

Its worth a replay for sure. Magic was the only thing that made combat interesting for me...and I tend to not enjoy using Mage archetypes, so i usualy shun away from spells and all that nonsense, NieR was one of the few exceptions, in that game, magic was badass. Thanks for reminding me of NieR epic OST, I still hear it in my head....so....fascinating....so...epic...so....unique. That game had potential...shame we wont ever see a sequel =( Quote

My ultimate goal in life is to spread the wonderful OST across the globe. Everyone must know of it. Indeed it is a shame that no sequel will be developed, but there is Drakengard 3. It seems Drakengard series and NieR are set in the same universe. Haven't looked too deep into it due to spoilers, but the news made me interested enough to play Drakengard 1 and 2, for 3 has yet to be released. But for Drakengard 3, the creators of NieR are part of the development team, and rumor has it, it will tie in to NieR. Take a look at that if you interested. Quote

I've looked into it slightly knowing that I will never get around to Drakengard. The connection is still somewhat unclear to me, but from what I could tell, the Drakengard games are worth it for the insane (I mean insane) stories. A shame Square Enix refused to really advertise it and reviewers did a pretty poor job at actually reviewing the game (hurr durr bad graphics= bad game according to IGN). As for the NieR OST, easily the best soundtrack I have ever heard in any video game, or movie. It's on a completely different level than everything. Quote

One thing I have learned from "reviewers" like IGN, if it is not a AAA game with the latest graphics, then it is an average game at extreme best. That is why I mostly look at reviews made by actual gamers. But Drakengard games are my next games to play once i finish my current ones. Shame you slightly know that you will never get around to playing the games. You are a fan of all things insane. haha but whenever i get around to it, I shall let you know how it goes Quote
Sovereign Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Heym Welcome! Hope you enjoy here as much as i am enjoying! I have NieR and i never played it. Is it THAT good? Quote
