Vanguard Princess: Happy 5th anniversary!/eigoManga SUCKS - Now on Steam

ummm…was talking about IAMP lolis. :lol:

Shoot, I can’t this to work yet. AND I know it’s Vista. If I still had XP it would run without a hitch. sigh guess I’ll keep at it.

EDIT:NVM, the shortcut was bad is all. Gonna give this a go today and tomorrow.

The assists are the only lolis in this game. The main female cast are certainly not.

I mean, boobs! Vagina stickers!

Anyway, I’ve been filling the wiki starting from the assists. Just doing Juliet right now.

Also, I’m running this game on vista with no problems

Wow, this game is nice to look at it. :bgrin: I liked it, got to check out the wiki later.

Okay, I edited the character pages and put a profile pic up because I didn’t like the way squirrel did it.

I wasn’t ragging on you for liking panties, I was ragging on your ignorance for thinking there’s one button specials in IaMP cause you don’t understand the game. It’s to be expected because IaMP is a pretty complex game, but there is an in-game command list with actual special moves, which are performed with rather mundane qcf and qcb motions. If you had spent even five minutes in training mode you would’ve noticed that, but you came in with some strange preconceived notions and brushed it off. That’s cool, it happens all the time, but it doesn’t mean you’re right, so I’m going to tell you that you’re wrong, lol.

Anyways, let’s not bullshit ourselves here: there’s lolis in VP too, and VP is far more shameless with its presentation. It overtly sexualizes all of its characters and comes off as a 2D Dead or Alive, which is frankly sort of a turn-off because I can’t imagine playing this game in public without being embarrassed. I don’t quite follow the logic of how a game with titties flopping all over and pantyshot kicks is somehow more acceptable than a game with superdeformed artwork, but hey, what do I know.

Yeah sorry about that. I was just using that Yui template that got posted by HF Blade.
You probably want to do the same for the assists section too.

I like to go into detail when it comes to moves and specials. Is this allowed or should I just stick to simple move descriptions for future edits if I want to contribute?

For example I want to edit Haruka’s move desicriptions to give details such as how her vertical ray has decent starup and does a lot of calcium damage if blocked. Is this kind of stuff better reserved for strategy rather than in the move descriptions themselves?

No, I was referring more to the specific formatting so that the submenu shows at the top, instead of using ------- which sucks

I’ll go fix the assists now

EDIT: welp; can’t find the select screen versions for the assists, if someone knows which file they’re in please let me know

I’ll hold off doing Juliet until you’re finished with those then.

You know until now I thought that Shiera was the most costly assist, but it turns out she’s not. Kanae is.

DoA is pretty modest in comparison if you ask me. :sweat:

So yeah. While I like the art overall the gratuitous pantyshots and boob jiggling puts me off quite a bit.

If the game didn’t play as well as it does I’d have stopped a while ago.

This is one of the only games that actually made me uncomfortable looking at the characters. And that’s coming from someone who praises the art style in Monster and Gleam of Force.

However it’s grown on me. The beautiful animations and detail to the sprites override the perversion in my eyes. It probably helps that I mostly play the less skimpy characters though.

Found something interesting with Kurumi again. After landing 623C at close range, she actually has time to take a step forward and do 5C and it will combo. So she can combo those two moves together even at mid screen, which is really nice.

I’ve also been playing Natalia a bit trying to find what’s up with her. Actually, I think she deals THE best chip damage in the game. Seriously, just blocking her pilebunker attacks will cause the opponent to take as much damage as if they were hit clean by a Kurumi fierce. Granted that parries might stuff her up since her attacks are kind of predictable. But that’s what Kanae is for.

Okay, got the support pics up.

I am not ashamed to play this game, nor show it to any of the people I play fighters with. I’d even play it in public. Honestly, a lot of the sprites and animations go by so quick that you don’t really catch the dirty key frames unless you check out single sprites.

Wrote some stuff up on the Ayane wiki with whatever stuff I had found today. As soon as youtube is not on maintenance I have a little Ayane combo demonstration to upload.

EDIT: And here it is: [media=youtube]IYeUbKyMH-k[/media]

I know right now everyone’s saying Ciela/Shiera for mech assist, but I’m pretty sure you would translate this as Sheila, ne?

Still can’t get my damn stick to work or this to open in FM2nd. FML.

Sheila is closer to “shiira”, but I’m aware that it probably is thematically correct since there’s a Juliet. She’ll eventually become Sheila more than likely.

I put in some Yui shit, with some room for sp00ky to completely dominate it since he’s actually had some match experience unlike me.

Free game? I have no reason not to play.

I don’t understand the hate for the sexualization in the game. I actually really like it, the more titties and blatant panty shots the better, but nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed about here. I played this game in front of my wife for about 30 minutes and she thought it was cool, even offered tips. Our room mate came in and watched for 10 minutes or so, and he thought it was amazing, doesn’t even like anime. So unless you are playing in front of your mother, or some prude I don’t see the big deal, or unless you are just insecure or can’t stand a little bit of exaggerated sexuality in your game.

Because it’s quite frankly an insult to the players.

Sexuallising characters is the cheapest and nastiest way to draw attention to them and makes it seem like the game is made with horny otaku teens in mind. It’s like going into a comedian’s club and starting off with a sex joke. It makes you look uncultured and unsophisticated.

It also limits a general appeal for the characters.

Ah, I see. Just keep in mind that that’s entirely your viewpoint. I don’t find it insulting in the slightest. I don’t find it nasty or cheap, just an over glorification of the female sexuality - which I enjoy quite frankly. Sure it limits the appeal as I guess some will not like it, but who gives a shit…if we kept the appeal of everyone in mind when making games we’d sure as hell have some boring ass games. It’s pretty obvious that the single person who made this game made what he likes. I like it too and I’m glad he did. Thanks for sharing your opinion though. I still don’t get why so many people are uptight about sex/perversions in their games. Just enjoy it, if you can’t then ignore it.

Ugh you’re one of those ‘liberals’ aren’t you? Stop being so darn selfish. >:/

Basically think of it this way. Think of something that makes you uncomfortable like…oh I don’t know…religion or something.

Then replace all the sexuallised aspects in the game with that.

Would you still have respect for the game?

Anyway, I finished filling out the assist section on the wikis. I don’t really know what to say about the proxy guards since they’re the same for all the assists.

Why don’t we have a page for Hilda too?
