He is my Hero, my best friend. And an all around great person. And I love him

Excited for next weeks episode, but I have to say it is not surprising Ruby and Weiss where the first to make eye contact. It seemed pretty obvious since Weiss didn't like her and they ended in the same group together at the end.

Depends what you are basing it off of when you say best. If you mean the strongest It would be the x-blade. But if you are saying what one looks the best, in my opinion that would be the Way to Dawn.

Personally I liked the KH2 Ultima weapon best. But at the same time I never bothered going out of my way to get them cause I always just found the keyblade I had at the time sufficient

"He could kill us!" Louvel exclaimed. "We are not ready for this. We will take him on if it is necessary but don't jump into things. What if he isn't even there? What then. We will check it out but we need to return to the king!" Louvel was obviously angry and didn't want to deal with them at the moment.
"Besides didn't you hear what Beuce just said about Garnets sister. Something has happened back there, there is just as much trouble there as here." Azurite was arguing on Louvels side not against this time. After he had heard what Beuce had to say, he agreed they needed to head back to the tower.​

R having finished repairing the stone in the mansion walked to the pod it sat in and retrieved it. With the stone safely tucked away he opened a dark corridor to Castle Oblivion. "The girl better be back by now with Sapphire." He said slightly doubting their abilities. He then turned to Xross. "If they don't have her you are held just as much accountable, you where suppose to help." He said then walked through the door to be greeted with the sight of Kaya and Ruby on the ground. He cast some cure magic on both of them before speaking. "What happened and where is Sapphire. No excuses." R had his arms crossed and glared at Kaya. The student he had trained for so long worth nothing.



Kaya looked up at R. After he healed her she stood up and started talking. "Ruby stupid sister has become too strong. Cause you made her that way! And there was one other wild card. A young girl not sure who's side she is on. I think no ones. Anyways she helped the girls escape from our hands but we will get them back." Kaya was determined to get her sister no matter what, before her brother got to her. "Just let me go again and I will get her, dead or alive."

Sapphire quietly agreed but was formulating a plan of her own to get away, that was once she could walk properly. She would find a what to go back to being on her own."We can't let Kaya get me again can we. She just wants to take me back. Lets go. I want to go home. Get better soon Annabelle." Sapphire she in a rather down voice. "I hope I will get to see you again".

King Mickey sighed. The rest weren't back yet? What where they up to? "Why don't you come inside I will make you some tea." The king offered wanting to help comfort the poor girl. "That makes two.... what have I done wrong?" He questioned himself as he walked behind Kaxar up the stairs. ​

I wasn't trying to give off the impression they where set in stone just address the fact that throughout time there was reasons for things being the way they were and my reasons to believe that they should change. I believe in womans equality yes, but the general belief that the male would be the protector and/or provider for the family stays the same to me. Yeah real life effects emotions and emotional responses a fair bit but genes do too and they also help control emotions not even what emotions you have. The comment I made was all to lead back to roles of the individuals in a household, and these roles transfer over to media like video games too, why wouldn't it?

Karina rolled her eyes at Glens reaction to the shadow. "Go get em tiger." She said in an unimpressed sarcastic voice. She watched Glen leap forward. "And try not to fall on your face." She warned. Karina leaned her back on the rock waiting for some sort of reaction of what needed to be done. She had a feeling that wouldn't be fighting. If it was she would jump in and help, but that wouldn't be necessary. Karina then turned to Kel while she waited. "Try to keep up this time. I need some competition." she teased him. "I don't think the rest are all that strong." She said glancing at the others.

Karina couldn't help but crack a grin when the small red lizard walked out from the rock. "Wow you where scared of THAT? This will be a long mission." She sighed as she stepped past Glen. "Do us all a favour and not try to kill or scare everything that moves. It is ridiculous." Karina gave Glen a pat on the chest and rolled her eyes. Karina spun around on her heals to face the lizard and young soldier next.

Listening to Mulans voice Karina could guess why they looked like men. "Poor girl, eh?" She said to Mulan questioning why she, and they needed to be men. "I'm Karina... or Eric." She introduced herself. "Mind explaining why you are dressed like a man..." Karina's eyes where then drawn to the cowering lizard on her neck. "... And who slash what that thing is." It was obvious it wasn't just a lizard, first of all lizards don't talk, second it looked different from the lizards back home. Sure it shared a few same traits but it was not the same thing. Karina wasn't even trying to conceal that she was a girl at the moment. That obviously didn't matter now, but since they where turned into men and there was a girl dressed like a guy standing in front of the group she thought it only logical that they needed to help her. "Is there anyway we can help with whatever you are doing?" She asked.

I have stated this a few times, I am not saying woman are not strong or can't fight. Nor am I saying it is all about strength. But if you take two average people, lets say a man and a woman who work the same job and are in the same office and test them in some basic things. If we are talking about why males have the roles of protectors you will test them in things that have to do with fighting or being a protector such as strength, but also emotional stability, and how well they can take hits. It isn't just about their physical build. Being a protector is a lot more then just that, but it is traits that males more commonly carry, some can't be helped. I mean parts on it is to with hormones and such. No matter how you look at it they are there and different between guys and girls. Guys aren't labeled as protectors just because they are stronger. Yes it is part of it but not the whole thing.

I don't really have any super rare games or anything. I think the best I got is super smash bros for the n64. going on ebay for between $40 and $50. Nothing all that special but hey it is what I got

I won't say that you are wrong when you claim it is starting to get overused in society today, but the problem I have with her argument and this is she is generally referring to older games like Mario and Zelda. When these games where first developed, that story line wasn't a problem. That idea was accepted more then it is now. And I don't see why these games need to change their story now. It is almost wrong to change it too much cause guess what, that is what people grew up with, that is what they expect. I wouldn't want Nintendo to change Mario. I grew up on the story that you had to save peach, and I don't want that to change, it is half of what Mario is. It is a major part of the game at this point. I stated this in my original argument, if you want to address this issue properly, you need to look at more current games. I know there are a lot of current games that still use this old cliche story line. And yes it is getting over use. But if you are going to argue over this you need to use more up to date examples.

I agree it shouldn't be a gender attachment, but guess what, it is. It is a part of life. And know what this may just come from my Christian roots and thoughts, but each gender was made for a their own role. Not to say they can't cross over, but generally men where made to be the protectors and providers of a family. The woman was made for taking care of the family, providing maybe. But we where not built like men where as much for fighting. I respect girls who do fight and I don't have a problem with it but there is a certain idea that has gone back for ages that is still applicable. Woman and men have different roles in the world. Yes they should be treated equally but there are still role in life. 1st Peter 3:7 says "Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered." Woman where made weaker then men. But that doesn't mean they can't fight. But it does show there is a little but of a gender attachment in this. And know what it isn't a big deal. We each have our own roles in society.

I will still go back to the point that in society for a long time and even today that there are still gender roles in society. No they aren't as prominent as they where before but they are still there. And my I point out that just because the main hero is a guy that doesn't mean woman are weak. I mean Final Fantasy 7 Cloud was the main character, but Tifa and Yuffie, and for the first half of the game Aerith where strong. Though out the game Tifa and Yuffie proved to be more useful then most of the male characters and Tifa had a lot of major plot points in which she helped Cloud overcome things himself. I can relate the same back to Kingdom Hearts. Kairi was the one you where suppose to be saving but she helped Sora though a lot in her own way. Heck she wasn't even conscious and she guided Sora and saved him. After he woke up she saved him again. In the second game, she started to fight in order to help Sora. Sure she was the damsel in distress and Sora was the main character, but she sure as hell helped him out of a lot and though not being showed as as strong as you probably think she should be the main hero can rarely do things without some help. And there are a lot of cases that that is a female in one way or another. Plus on top of this all males make good protagonists because they are less emotional. Think again of guys verses girls and the way we are made. Girls tend to show a lot more emotions then men. Emotions can impair judgment a lot. So in reality females would act a lot different then what is wanted or needed for certain situations in games. Sure they could change the situation but would it not be easier to change the character? It is just a trait of males to be less emotional then females. There is nothing to be done about that. And less visible emotion means that you don't get those unnecessary parts of games that they would need to focus on emotions to make the characters more realistic.

There isn't really. But if you are going to go for a romantic aspect to the story they tend to try to help each other in some way or another even if the girl is going to be weaker. I could relate this back to the bible once again but I think I made my point clear earlier. Males and females have roles, they always have and always will. I am all for the idea of female protectionists but when you do a romantically themed story, you generally default to the roles of men and woman. These roles aren't made to make the woman look weak, but are built upon our nature and how we are created. We where created different from men. It just so happens that the way men are built and think is more of one of a protector. Girls are almost made more like teachers. This doesn't mean they aren't strong or can't handle their own, it simply means that if something where to happen it would be more expected of the men to fight. I don't see why this should really change, it is how we were made. And it hasn't been an issue for thousands of years, only in recent years has there ever been an issue with this.

They shouldn't and I see that as a bit of an over exhaderation. But usually the Damsel and the rescuer knew each other before whatever happened happened. If you had been taken or something would you not want to hug your rescuer. I believe a hug or a kiss is more commonly seen then the damsel falling at the rescuers feet. It doesn't even have to be from a romantic prospective, just grateful is all. But a lot of people like a love story sort of vibe, and if they don't there are other games for them usually ones where the woman is not needing to be saved. But honestly that is more a classic love story Cliche then anything else. But it doesn't always work out like that even though it does often.

Yes it is moving slow but you can't just do a complete flip right off the bat, even if it doesn't seem like a big thing like changing the type of protagonist. But even so it would be a shock to the industry. Any change has to be made slowly. That is what I am seeing personally. They are slowly making changes but they can't do it all at once.

But when you are writing something a lot of what you are writing has a little bit of your own ideas in it. It is nearly impossible to escape. So if you have an entire team of people working on a game whose society and thoughts say it is okay, at least a small amount of it will be transferred over to what you are working on. Games are played world wide yes, but you have to understand that it is in human nature to let their work be influenced by there own opinion. It is nearly impossible to be completely unbias. And when coming up with concepts, you would start with what you are familiar with would you not? At that is how I view it, and have my own experience with. Things can get adjusted and they do. The world is changing and people are not inputting as much of their beliefs into the work but it will always be there. Even now in my posts you can see a bit of what I grew up believing in my posts and I can't help that cause that is me.

It is not an overwhelming majority but if you go back to the actual numbers, there will be a noticeable difference. And this change happened fairly quickly. I mean I know when my parents where teenagers it wasn't as common as it is now. And that seems like a long time but if you look at industry it really isn't. Things are evolving but not as fast as people themselves are changing. Every generation comes with different ideas. And only now really are those people who where raised in more of a society of girl gamers getting in the industry, and they are still pretty new at it. The generation before in the development department didn't come from a generation of dominating girl gamers. Statistics aren't the only things out there. People themselves have views of the industry that will impact it.

No they don't but I find personally in a lot of rpg's I like to think of myself in the place of the character and it is easier to do that with someone of the same gender. And yes as the gamer populations starts to have more girls it would be good to see more female characters, but I honestly don't mind if they are party members as long as they are important to the story. I don't think it really matters all that much whether they are the main character or not, but it is nice to see they are included in the game. It can at least me a start can it not? As for the creating more females main characters, I would go back to points I touch earlier on about the making of the game. I can see it coming just slowly. And maybe not as fast as people would like, but honestly I think they need just be patient and wait a bit.

But you are talking like all games have been made or even the idea was conceived in a time that this was more of an issue. Most games out there at this point in time where made before this became a dominate issue. And numbers are changing but it won't happen over night. They can't happen overnight. This isn't a new industry really. It is relatively new but still not new enough that it can be changed quickly.

For this I just am going to say refer to previous comments because I have pretty much already covered it. (And I am getting too tired to reiterate what I have already said. )

Some are yes, but not all. There are a lot of girls who kick butt in videogames. This is seen all throughout Final Fantasy, and so many other games. Yes perhaps the white mage tends to be a girl but honestly I have a hard time seeing a guy unless a kid fitting into that role well. But other females in the game aren't just like a support character not actually fighting. Even in a lot of games some of the female NPC's can be pretty awesome even if you don't play as them. You also have to consider what time period the game itself takes place in. Games like Assassins Creed or Prince of Persia you won't see many woman fighting, not because the developers think they can't but the time period or location it is set in, it wouldn't make sense to see them fighting.

Know what, I have always thought that I could save myself, but it would be a lie if I didn't say I didn't think it romantic that if something did happen the man I love to come to my rescue. People can have both mentalities without it really being a problem. I wouldn't just let myself be taken with hopes someone will save me. But if that was the case I would hope that someone would come as save me like a brave warrior.

Honestly I prefer Riku over both of them. Both of their personalities just kinda isn't what I like all that much. I see what Riku did as the the most brave and honorable thing. I am not basing this off how the developer portrayed her. I think they did a fine job at that, this is just personal opinions.

No it isn't but like all things change is slow and I believe developers are seeing the change but it can't all change at once. It is a process that takes time. And you can't really rush it that much. I don't have problems with videos like these, it is more the way she presented it that bothered me. Using examples from older games and almost acting like they aren't trying at all. It is also a lot of trial and error to see what everyone will enjoy, not just the women or the men. It is a process that takes time.

Angelina pointed the flashlight at the door. "Bathroom is down the hall and too the right. She acted like she knew what she was talking about but she really didn't. She had no idea where the bathrooms was, nor did she care. She just needed this guy out of here. She had her won thing to search for. She had a feeling that he wasn't here because he was lost but it didn't matter at this point.

"Get out of the way girl. I've got important things I need to do in here. Lives are depending on me. So please get the hell out of my way."

Hearing this mans words she shifted back to her regular form. "So you could tell could you?" She asked rhetorically. " Look I don't know what you are looking for here but I have my own reasons to be here and I was here first. So leave." She walked over to the wall and started knocking on it looking for a hollow spot. Something hidden behind the wall maybe he was hiding something.

"Mr. Fisher wants to wage war against humans. I can't let that happen. Too many people have died in my arms for me to let him kill more. Humans can be my friends not enemies." She didn't know why she was saying such things to this person who she have never met. She didn't know who he was or why he was here... well he told her why but she didn't know the extent of it. "Don't take too long or you will get us both caught." She said aggressively.

As soon as Angelina got the picture on the ground safely she started examining the wall. She heard a the door open behind her and spun around. 'What now? Crap!' She thought. Mr. Fisher must be back. Angelina needed to play her part as her shifted form. She pulled out her flashlight and pointed it at the door. "Security! Show yourself!" She demanded. She figured that that if she acted like a security guard she may be able to get away with it. She reached down to grab her gun. "I will only ask once."

Honestly I was never a fan of any of those character in both their games and in Kingdom Hearts, so I don't care to see them. But I guess it would be interesting to go back and challenge them like you did in Kingdom Hearts one. See how you both improved. I don't care if they are playable people but it would be interesting to see what they have been up to while Sora was gone.

"Just sit here it is." Karina mumbled as the group started talking. Annoyed Karina took a seat on a rock and was going to wait till the two boys where done reminiscing over their last mission when another young man walked up. Karina didn't recognize him but he looked familiar. She studied him closer to realize it was actually Flora. That was confirmed from his... or her next comment. 'Male names eh? Hm what would be good.' She needed some time to think about this.

Karina heard one of the other boys talking. This one she recognized but never bother to learn the name of. "That is me. And you are?" She said in a stern, unimpressed voice. While waiting for a response, she saw Glen snicker out of the corner of her eye. She turned away from Raisor to Glen. "Look we were made to look this way for a reason. We need to play the part and not stand out, got it?" She said harshly. She already didn't like this guy. Karina turned away from the group. "Call me Eric while we are here." She didn't even think about the name when she chose it, it was the first thing that popped into her head, but it worked for what they where doing.

Karina started to walk away from the group annoyed when she heard a voice around the corner. She sat back and quietly listened to the conversation. The shadow projected onto the rock wall looked big, but it was just a shadow, she didn't want to act to hasty. Flora on the other hand jumped to conclusions. She let the others charge forward and sat back for a minute before simply walking around the corner to see what was going on. If the others wanted to over react that was fine, but she wasn't going to. Even if it was a monster it wasn't like they wouldn't be able to take it down. But the way it talked... most monsters didn't talk and if they did they would sound more threatening then this one did.

I would like to see Serah and Noel come in. It would also be interesting to see Genesis come in but I don't see that as needed. Besides that it would be cool to see Noctis make an appearance, but since the game isn't released yet I doubt that would happen. I love lightning and all but I think she is used enough and has enough of her own games that she doesn't need to be included in KH3. Besides that I don't really know who else I would want to see.
