Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is pretty fun

Thanks for making a thread about the game and not the waifus.
I agree, I really enjoyed it despite its flaws and its one of my favorite of all time. I liked 1 and X, but after playing this one I finally decided to go back and play the other Xeno games. Gears is a true diamond in the rough, and even with its frustrations its one of the most memorable RPG experiences I've had. Playing Saga I now and its okay, definitely the weakest, but I'm holding out for III.

Weird, I thought the opposite. I felt like the game was mostly getting better and better as it went on.

go back to your shitposting echo chamber thread bruh. This thread at least is actually discussing a game, whether or not you think the game is shit is irrelevant - hell, this thread is hardly blind praise anyway. Your thread is absolute garbage with no substance to it whatsoever >INB4 "just like xc2 lmao" your shitposting is too predictable

>even the mods are on our side
are you proud of this?

I don't know if I should start NG+ now or try to finish off ursula's quest first, since I don't know how close I am to completing it.

It was always so slow during the early game. Once you could start with arts charged and cancel arts into arts, it got so much better.

How many stamps/fans do you have?

I really hope that the idea of animation cancellation/arts timing returns in future Xenoblade titles, even if they drastically change the combat again.

why does the gameplay suck so much

I agree, though ideally next time they'll make it like the way blade switch/special cancelling works, where you actually have to press the button at the right time to cancel and can't just mash it.

I can't remember where you check that

Morag!

What a handsome man.

Should be in your key items

I keep going back to it to finish up maxing out blades. Tempted to just start NG+ even thought I still don't have KOS-MOS. I love how broken you can make your party, I really miss when RPGs and games let you do that even if it does break the balance. I think XBC2 does a good job on that front though by putting in super bosses and the Challenge Mode DLC. More RPGs should do shit like that.

The stamps should be in your inventory, and Tipitapi (the nopon manager dude, depending on how far into the quest you are he'll either be at Rumbletum Canteen in Argentum or Mymoma Playhouse in Uraya) should tell you the number of fans.

I fear starting ng+ without all the blades. Kosmos eludes me and I heard ng+ is awful if you do it without her

only got about a third of the total stamps needed
>53/99
>28/99
>27/99
1326 fans

You still have a way to go, if you have nothing else to do go NG+
If you have some other things to do then go ahead and finish the quest
You could do it while watching animu or playing something else

Where'd you hear that? NG+ isn't any harder unless you turn up the difficulty.

While would NG+ be awful without her? You can finish NG+ in OoC without her
You're just going to miss on her quest which rewards you Fast Blade Change VI and Blade Combo Up VI aux cores

What are some Heart-to-Hearts you all enjoyed? I just got the one in Mor Ardain between Rex, Tora, Poppi Alpha, and Azurda, I liked how by the end of it, Tora just runs off to talk to Nia anyhow. I think the Replay Theatre allows you to see all possible versions/dialogues of the cutscenes, right?

The two in Elpys were great, the one in Rex's secret base too, the one at the hotspring and the one where Morag tries cooking a fish in Argentum are gold. I also loved the one where Mythra shatters Zeke's image of Addam in Theosoir.

Honestly, most of them were great, and I hope they keep that form of H2H going forward (not locked by affinity and actually voiced)

waifus

The h2h where Morag try to cook fish in Argentum is my favorite, both options are hillarious
I don't think you can see the h2h in the theatre though? Someone might confirm

Not the heart to hearts, sadly. There's a guy on Youtube who bothered to record all of them, though.
I think my favorites were the NG+ blade heart to hearts, the H2H in the spirit crucible where the party talks about where they want to be buried, the H2H in Torigoth with Rex and Zeke, and the Morag cooking one in Argentum.

there's only a couple waifufags itt though

Not upset at all, just stating a fact.

It really is, it's an amazing game. I'm really glad it's been so well received.

If all you've got left is rolling for Blades you should do that on NG+, since there's plenty of NG+ only Blades.

Just make sure to get your Luck start back up if you reduce your levels.

Rex doesn't deserve a spot in Smash.
>But Corrin!!!
He didn't either, I'm glad Nintendo is picking heavy hitters for DLC this time.

There's Blades you can only get in NG+, if you're gonna be rolling, it might as well be in NG+.

And no, it's only hard on Bringer of Chaos difficulty. Make sure you finish Ursula's quest first though, since it resets otherwise.

It's legitimately the best JRPG since the PS2 era.

I 100%'d P5, loving it almost all the way through (Goro was handled badly), even solo'd Death and made an invincible Persona. I expected that to sit as my favorite modern JRPG for some time.

I need to get back to this. Nearly 100%'d Torna, and I've done a good chunk of the sidequests and blade quests in the main game before NG+. Looking to do that in the near future and enjoy the game all over again.
Really I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it, hadn't played many JRPGs before this one so I was afraid I'd hate it. More than happy to have been proven wrong!

It is because you have shit taste. fucking kill yourself right now.

A game is not good because it's flawless. A flawless game is the kind of ideal that leads to western AAA trash. A flawless game comes from a list of boxes to check, a good game comes from the heart.

Those were THE JRPGs though you fucking newfag, if you only play vita level trash of course you'd find a game like XC2 to be the best JRPG.

Mythra became a lot more fuckable.

I just recently finished the game. The combat system is a lot of fun, but I don't like how binary it is. It seemed like every fight I'd either completely roll something, or just get completely rolled by the enemy. I wish there were more battles where you survive just by the skin of your teeth.

In reality, there's no conspiracy, and imagining there somehow would be about a year old single player JRPG is retarded.

I had the same issue in XB1, and it's frustrating that this many years later it's still the same.
I found setting my level to around 10 below the enemies I was fighting in NG+ sometimes worked well for making fights harder without being impossible, but going back to inns constantly to keep myself from getting overleveled was a pain.
I keep meaning to go back and do a fresh playthrough now that the custom difficulty is out, but I'm not sure what settings to use to keep things challenging without being impossible.

This game would be 20% better without field skills.

No sane person would say Xenoblade 2 is the best JRPG since the PS2 era unless they played very few JRPGs, the gacha alone destroys that statement.

>Still think Malos was one of my favorite game villains in some time. Something about that hammy acting and pure nihilism just made him lovable.
Malos is the best.
He's cheesy as hell, and a interesting character to boot.

Ah, Americans are the retards that think this game is something way bigger than it actually is.

It all makes sense now.

I dropped this game at around the second titan town, the war camp place? It was just so dull and slow, and the companion AI, which you need, is so stupid, and the level design so lacking.

And the gacha elements. I despise gacha.

You specifically listed subpar games, some I wouldn't even consider JRPGs, so you either played very few, or only listed ones you don't actually like that much.
Considering you're opinions on Persona 5, I knew this was the case from beginning.

>best received ones
Just because Persona 5 did really well doesn't mean the rest weren't niche as hell picks.
Outside of maybe Valkyria Chronicles, he picked some really weebcore JRPGs like Tales and Cold Steel, the kind of games that don't have the level of care of good JRPGs like Xeno, and Dragon Quest.

You need to be harsh on games like XC2, so the series doesn't go the way of Fire Emblem and Shining Force.

And which one of those is better than xc2

Most Xenoblade fans are fans of the whole series, you just have a couple dedicated autistic one-game-only fanboys that can't help but loudly shit on the other games, as well as that one literal boomer that can't help but whine about muh Xenogears.

It doesn't make much sense if you do it after chapter 5 though

Don't listen that shitposter with wrong info. The last time we had sales info of xenoblade 2 (the 1.53 million) was in September 2018 in the last Nintendo sales report before smash moved it out of the top 10. The octopath sales (the 1.50 million) info is from January 2019, xenoblade 2 had 5 months to sell more.

It's actually pretty good for Nintendo-exclusive RPGs not named Pokémon. Xenoblade 2 sold a lot more than either of its predecessors, and those sold enough to warrant sequels, so I wouldn't be worried. Octopath also blew SE's expectations considering the fact it was literally out of stock after its release.

The shitposter didn't say anything about sales speed, just posted numbers and went "oh no no no!"

Nice quads

his point is that octopath is going to outsell xb2. it's certainly selling faster, so I don't see how that's wrong.
you don't have to buy into his rhetoric of 'SALES NUMBERS ARE THE ONLY THING THAT MATTER' by making your counterargument 'n-no, xenoblade's definitely sold more by now!'

Are there any crutches (in any form) in Xenoblade 2?

>14k word essay on the character of Jin from Xenoblade 2
Why? I get he's probably one of the best written characters in a video game in a long time but why does that mean he needs a document discussing the depth of his character and their motivations.

I thought FFXV sold really well?

Because that person obviously enjoys doing it, is that wrong?

>I get he's probably one of the best written characters in a video game in a long time
This is bait, but the biggest literally who from Danganronpa had an essay written about her despite literally being on screen for about an hour.

It sold "well" according to Square but to make up the amount of money they lost due in its extremely fucked development it would've had to break records.

They also cancelled all of the DLC for it, so clearly it wasn't a roaring success.

that game could have sold 50 million copies and it wouldn't have made up for the massive budget and time spent on its three iterations.

Yes, but SE keep bleeding money over loads of stuff (mostly related to FFXV production) that moment, reducing the profits.

torna dlc was better than base game but both are good. Jin became my favorite afterwards.

To people who never play JRPGs(The target audience) he's actually pretty unique.

I guess abusing crit recharge arts + crit heals? But you have to be pretty late in the game to have good crit accessories, crit rate cores and a level 5 crit recharge art on Zeke's Great Axes or maxed out the node on Mythra's affinity chart, so I guess it's more of a mid-late-to-late-game crutch, and even then it's not like crit healing's going be enough on its own to get you through some of the harder Challenge Mode challenges.

Basically this Happened.

holy shit I just realized
the reason why they give you such shit rare blades at the beginning of the game is because they assume you would be giving them to rex
so when you get to chapter 8 it doesn't matter if rex has the shitty blades that you aren't going to use anyways because by then its more likely your other party members have better rare blades anyways which rex will be able to use anyways
its all make sense now, the developers are actually geniuses

Attached: 1553570848268.jpg (1183x1200, 95K)

the raw gameplay was better but balance was fucked. its excusable as a dlc for the base game where people are already expected to know the 70% of the systems that transfered over, but as a standalone the difficulty spikes hard once you get off gormott and hit the torna continent

It did, but proportionally Octopath made far more money, it's development and marketing cost would have been at absolute most a few million with Nintendo eating a lot of the marketing cost themselves, meanwhile FFXV's marketing cost alone would have been multiple times the complete cost of Octopath to SE, the difference would be so significant that if SE had instead opted to make 6 Octopath tier games in terms of budget and they had sold as well as Octopath it would have cost significantly less than the development cost of FFXV and made more money.

AAA is a joke, ever wonder why Nintendo's own games don't meet AAA standards.

Chain attacks, given that they're the one thing they went out of their way to nerf the fuck out of in BoC mode

>the reason why they give you such shit rare blades at the beginning of the game
first blade I unlocked was the fucking monster hunter chick, one look at her skill unlocks, even the first tier was half question marks because I hadn't reached uraya yet, and I knew I was fucked

Which rare blades are the shit ones they give you in the beginning?

It's more like why does it exist, who said it's wrong, I'm confused why someone would put in this much effort, is it autism, it's autism right? well he's pretty on, I think the Malos one is actually better, the title alone basically backs up my own views on Malos so it must be right.
How the fuck am I supposed to know that people are autistic enough to write a full essay on an extra from Danganronpa.

>The monster hunter girl
Sexy chocolate woman or battle hungry axe maniac?

Morytha was the peak of the game. This is a fact

The guy who wrote it just really likes doing character essays. He did one for Malos too, and is apparently going to do Nia, Shulk or Pyra/Mythra next.

Ice stripper, Ice hunk, Fire Bird, I waited a fair while to use Wulfric's core only to find out that he's literally the strongest blade in the whole game with a complete chart of actually useable abilities.

That person enjoys writting massive essays of Characters, is that so hard to understand?

Attached: D0ht527WoAAfUVX.jpg (1535x2048, 197K)

No, it literally was lower than anything else in the game. The peak of the game was Elysium, there's literally nothing above it.

Those characters aren't as good as Jin and Malos though, I guess it would be nice to see if someone can change my mind about them.

Atlusism explains it quite well, so in that context, no.

the guy who's writing them seems to be a big gears/saga fan, so it's definitely autism

I never see her brought up ever.
There's like one waifufag, and even in most of side material she barely gets brought up.

Her entire character was die and trick anyone who was expecting her to be a cliche waifubait to be caught off guard.

She isn't even talked about later, the protag moves on to the actual heroine of the game in mere moments after she dies.

I'm glad I don't care about Smash beyond playing it for a bit whenever a new one comes out. Rosterfagging is just getting yourself worked up and making yourself mad out of your own volition.

@457363091
Nah.

there are many but if I had to choose one it would be trying to find an objective meaning to your life by meeting god. Jin plays a pretty good foil to other characters because he already had an objective meaning to his existence but rejected it and instead desired what we humans already have, one life and only one chance at it.

Oh, it's you.
How are you number 1 fan?

They would have to go back on it because the Switch is region free. Or it might mean every region gets censored similar to what happened with CERO and smash if the ESRB throws a shitfit.

I would argue that in this game both concept are inseparable due to the fact that the main objective of the game, for both antagonist and some of the protagonists (people that are feeling lost or are missing something), is pretty much ascending to the in universe version of heaven for their own reasons.

It has a shitty story, but all Persona games besides 2 and 3 do, it still has the best gameplay of any "modern" Persona.

People always exaggerate that, the S-Links are such a minor part of the game, and there's barely any fanservice.

Xenoblade 2 panders to waifufags harder than P5 ever does.

both games are good, don't get the hate for either of them

But you can date adults in Persona 5

So why did Breath of the Wild do so well if Nintendo is oh so hated?

>Xenoblade 2 = conservative fantasy
But the main villian was a conservative who was against egalitarianism, which conservatives hate.

Polyamory is not open relationships, also you're thinking US Christian as opposed to Japanese or others, Islamic conservative is "pedophilic" (not that there is any pedophilia in Xenoblade 2) polyamory

I'd rather the dungeons in P5, no matter how small, over the hallways of P3 and P4.

I know you never played the game, but you can at least look up the characters age before you make an argument.

Pretty much always Xfag
It's amazing he's still not banned yet with all his deleted posts, he must be going down on his brother hard

What's wrong with the bosses?

got 100% in the game and a platinum trophy. I just dont pretend its not a waifu game.

Nice paranoia.

Please don't lump us all together with him.
I like 2 as well

In that case it's pretty sad you play Persona and Xenoblade 2 but don't even know what a loli is, but I guess ResetEra does the same thing.

Should I play NG+ after I beat the game or go to the Torna DLC instead

Cartoonishly evil and simple, also forgettable. You can tell the devs put no effort into making the villains in 5.

>No I'm pretty sure Amalthus is more out to connect to god rather than to attempt any anti-egalitarianism.
He got a full conservative upbringing when his mother was murdered by bandits and later he came across the family that was murdered by a soldier he just healed. It taught him early on that life in its natural state is cruel and selfish. So he climbed the great tree to meet God. When God decided to hide, he took the two Ageis's and ran, and because of his view of the world. he infected Malos with it to create the lovable, genocidal scamp we interacted with.

>His open and equal treatment for people as a healer and support of refugees doesn't really jell with that

The Refugees weren't protected out of virtue, but because they were the direct result of Indol keeping the wheels of war churning. Furthermore Amalthus used both people and blades as human experiments, and say blades as lower beings than people. Which is one of the reasons he targeted Torna because they were seen as equal. That sort of behavior is an affront to conservatism that believes there are certain castes where some natural lead, and the rest serve. Amalthus seeking out and genociding the Tornans' while blackmailing the few survivors who became the tantalees, destroys any idea that he's misunderstood.

At this point it's just a name, he doesn't even show any evidence of genuinely enjoying X, just using it as a vehicle to shitpost against 2(sorry, 2's fanbase).

We're not talking about the their characters, what's wrong with the boss fights themselves?

Not him but Oppai Loli's exist.

Depends, if you feel you want to take a breather and try something new, play Torna first, if you're still engaged in XC2's systems and gameplay, play NG+ first. Nothing's stopping you from juggling between both as well.

I post X threads all the time, and 100%'d X in both English and Japanese, but keep spreading lies about me.

Those lolis still aren't 15, they're 10-12 year-olds with oversized tits.

>He got a full conservative upbringing when his mother was murdered by bandits
Is this shitposting?
>It taught him early on that life in its natural state is cruel and selfish
>Right, nothing anti-egalitarian yet.
Furthermore Amalthus used both people and blades as human experiments
He also 'purified' the cores, stealing their data for himself to become a blade-eater monstrosity
He sees blades and humans as nothing more than tools for him to ascend and "become worthy" as he said he felt he was not worthy when he climbed the tower, he doesn't see blades as untermensch he sees them as tools, food or rather something to evolve with
>sort of behavior is an affront to conservatism that believes there are certain castes where some natural lead
Torna was still a monarchy, with elite and commoners though, I feel you're stretching here.

1000 year old dragon lolis are still lolis. It's all about the build.
That being said, Futaba isn't one.

Huh

>Which is one of the reasons he targeted Torna because they were seen as equal.
Didn't Amalthus go after the people in Spessia because he thought Mythra was there, not because they were Tornan?

Granted, at least 100 of those replies are his alone, pretty ironic that he spends more time posting in every XC2 thread than anyone in the fanbase he's dedicated his life to flamewarring with

I got confused because I thought this was a XC2 thread, turns out it was a Persona 5 SEETHING circlejerk

Also this thread was dead 8-9 times now, it just got bumped on page 9 by that one guy who was desperate to prove me wrong.

And some how Xenoblade isn't night and day compare to 2?

Xenoblade 1, X and 2 share common themes, explored in different ways

this picture is the best thing to come out of smash ultimate
it's perfection

It literally parallels the orignal, right down to the cuckolding.

Kind of like how Persona 3,4 and 5 share a common theme

Structurally all 3 games are incredibly similar to one another, 4 & 5 in particular bare more than a passing resemblance to each other in how the plot beats play out throughout the story. It's partly the nature of trying to tell a narrative over such a long in-game timeframe, but it doesn't stop it from feeling a bit worn thin by the 3rd time they've done it.

>Persona 3 - addressing death
>Persona 4 - addressing your true self
>Persona 5 - 'emancipation' / release from things that shackle you emotionally (on paper: IRL it's just "fuck adults")
Nah, not seeing it

what themes?

>Persona 3-Only high school kids can solve this problem of "Death." A special someone who comes to town at the right time to lead the way
>Persona 4- Only high school kids can solve this problem of a mystery murders with a special person who came to town at the right time
>Persona 5- Only high school kids can solve this problem of stupid adults and it shackles on society with a special person who showed up at the right time
Too many similarities

High school is the setting not the story or themes
>they all have the same character introductions for the MC
Also not the themes

XC1 is about not letting your betters decide for you, to forge your own path in life.
XC2 explores the other side of that coin. What if the guys going "Screw God I make my own destiny!" have nothing good in their lives and decide to kill everyone instead?

>Xenoblade 1-Boy finds magical sword and saves the world by killing God
>Xenoblade 2-Boy finds magical sword (female) and saves the world by killing the guy that killed God

Agreed, most fun I had in a jrpg in years, and this game reminded me why I liked jrpgs in the first place

XC2fags don't even understand their own game, jesus christ.

>Xenoblade 1 - Evil force wants to wipeout mankind, hero is chosen by the Monado as its champion, the twist is that he was not really an OG human
>Xenoblade X - Evil force wants to wipeout mankind, hero is chosen by the Elma as its champion, the twist is that he was not really an OG human
>Xenoblade 2 - Evil force wants to wipeout mankind, heroes is chosen by the Aegis as its champion, the twist is that he was not really an OG human

Go away Andrew, you haven't played the game.

>X is the most original

Still winning.

Yea he didn't play the game. God literally only did anything in the game at the very end and basically said make your own destiny and live how you want.

If you take that statement as the truth you're literally admitting your villain was poorly written.

Its almost like a series has a running theme in them. None of these games a unique from each other so stop trying to pretend otherwise.

And God wasn't Shulk's enemy for most of the game, I thought you guys would be smart enough to understand I was describing the whole story, not the first impression.

I was making fun of him, Xenoblade have FAR more in common thematically than the most dumbed down premise while Persona 3-5 are in a school with the MC being new.
That's a theme somehow.

That quote was about Xenoblade 2 you retard.
>Xenoblade 2-Boy finds magical sword (female) and saves the world by killing the guy that killed God
>killing the guy that killed God

it's more that your attempt to tie 2's final boss to god was confusing, but okay

And Malos didn't kill God?

Thanks for confirming you don't know shit. If anyone killed god it was Shulk. Killing one half killed the other.

>And Malos didn't kill God?
No?

No. Shulk killed God you fucking retard.

>He was already dead, that didn't count!

user, Malos literally did not kill god. I don't know what more you need. He didn't even attack Klaus or anything.

>He didn't even attack Klaus or anything.
He tries once, but Klaus has some barrier bullshit that deflects it.

>Got exposed as a retard
>He was dead already
Still don't know shit. Klaus wasn't dead until Shulk killed Zanza.

His goal was to kill God, and he succeeded.
He's meant to parallel Shulk, that's why he has the Monado.

Again, you guys don't even understand your own story.

>He's meant to parallel Shulk, that's why he has the Monado.
that's Jin you dingus

They both are.

>His goal was to kill God, and he succeeded
No he didn't. He tried and failed so he went and decided to destroy the world he created as a way to get back at him.
>Again, you guys don't even understand your own story.
A retard like you needs to take your own advice

>His goal was to kill God, and he succeeded.
Malos had literally nothing to do with Klaus's death m8

>Survival of the fittest, no compassion, only care about yourself.
Conservative views of life.
It goes beyond egalitarianism.

>Using people as tools to reach his own ends.
That's called conservatism.

>Torna was still a monarchy
That's a strawman argument that has nothing to do with the fact that Almathlus was against treating blades and people as equal

Doesn't matter if he ended up killing him or not, that wasn't my point, he was Shulk as a villain, that was the point of my post.

>only care about yourself
>Conservative views of life.
user, stop reading leftist propaganda.

It's like homos posting on /pol/.

One of the only non cringe designs in the game.
It's like the artist realized he could draw literally anything he wanted instead of waifubait for otaku virgins.

Elaborate.

I'm not moving the goalpost, my point from the beginning was that protag does thing, and then you kill enemy that does thing.

I don't care if Malos actually killed god or not, I'm talking about the god killer trope in general.

He's a knockoff Lao.

Maybe the confirmation that KOS-MOS:Re was actually built by Shion Uzuki and Allen Ridgeley a d her number was 1.2 or something while the KOS-MOS we know of was 1.1 or 1.0, I can't recall, so we can assume she really was pulled out of Xenosaga's universe somehow

Got her and she's gorgeous. Those tiddies are where the dreams of men are made.

Couldn't that just be explained as blade KOS-MOS getting her form from data in her core crystal about a character from a fictional Xenosaga sequel released in XB's Earth, though?
I can't see there actually being a plot-relevant connection, since she's still owned by Namco.

we did it reddit

Not an arguement

>mimics words without understanding them
Everytime

>Can't refute the substance
>Can only attack personally
Another hallmark of modern conservatism.

Do the core crystals on these figures look any better in person? They look really dull and shitty in the pictures.

>Can only attack personally
I never did this though.
>refute the substance
That you believe that Social Conservatives (top values are family values and national security) only care about themselves? How can I attack what you personally believe? I just suggested you try non-biased sources in the future.

>I never did this though.
Lie, right off the back
>stop reading leftist propaganda.
Your attack is to claim I'm misguided by correctly pointing out how conservatism is an inherently flawed ideology that holds society back and how it relates to XBC2 in the case of Indol. As for your counter argument

>top values are family values and national security
>Family
Caring only about themselves and what affects them, but not the community
>National security
As a means of protecting themselves, also the a strong military industrial complex protects those in power while also funding them.

Thanks for proving my point of the inherent selfishness of conservatism.

>But conservatives tend to be the most charitable
While the term is overused, it's a virtue signaling, because people are forced to rely on charity due to the system conservatism creates where there is no room for class mobility and the sins of the father becomes the sins of the son. As a result, the rich help the poor when they see fit and believe they should be given a pat on the back for helping those beneath them or worse, use it as a means to an end to further their own interest.

We're talking about how XBC2 is critical of conservatism.

If you want to talk about X, we can talk about how that game destroys nativism and racist policies like you're seeing in the US.
Proof: The entire Alex quest line.

>Your attack is to claim I'm misguided
Incorrect, I said to read non-biased media
>correctly pointing out how conservatism is an inherently flawed ideology

>If you want to talk about X

Which leads to attack on sources by claiming some are biased because you disagree wit the information they present you.
Keep in mind, I'm being relatively light on the information and not heavy handed in dealing with you. If you want a dissertation in the next thread. I'd be more than happy to shatter your world view on how Conservatism is the root any of any authoritarian type of government. And that has nothing to do with 'non-biased sources' it comes for the fathers of conservatism.

>you disagree wit the information they present you
Incorrect, I merely advised you to be open and seek less biased media

Didn't the corporations work directly under the NLA government and BLADE?

No, you disagree with the information so you attack the source. It's a typical conservative tactic of disinformation. Feel free to refute the facts.
Or better yet, look up the Conservatism Order and Counter-Enlightenment.

Go away cat, we're talking politics.
