    @Antimatter
    Presuming that a Cybertronian can imprint and mimic any machine, is a protoform capable therefore of mimicking another Cybertronian in it's alt-form?
    Also
    Were the Mass Effect gameplay structure/narrative system to be transplanted into the TF setting who would you nominate for squadmembers, assuming the Sheperd equivalent is a non-affiliated Cybertronian unknown customized by the player?

    I feel like the mass effect structure wouldn't work well for a transformers game because transformers is built entirely around existing characters and so no matter what you would just be some goober who supports somebody with an actual face

    However on the other hand the TF universe is so huge that there is always room for a new character, and even background characters have been given the spotlight recently in the fantastic More Than Meets the Eye comics. It can be argued that Transformers relies on its existing characters but this just means for any game that treats them with dignity and some modicum of intelligence has a great supporting cast of established characters.

    Listen, they're robots that transform into cars, if you can't see the appeal with that you're the problem here.

    I assume you are familiar with the musical stylings of Le Knight Club; if yes, how awesome are they, right?

    If no, why not

    Look up Makeshift (Prime) and Punch (G1)

    As for squadmates, I'd have a hard time narrowing it down especially with an unknown protagonist

    Personally, I'd have the main character be hot rod, and here is why

    The equivalent of paragon decisions would lead you to be Prime
    Renegade decisions are you being Hot Rod

    I'm still having a devil of a time deciding squaddies, I think I have to just pick from the Lost Light crew and a few more

    Ultra Magnus
    Kup
    Cyclonus (who would be the Javik equivalent, going off of idw)
    Punch
    Arcee
    Flareup
    Wasp

    Not familiar because I am not open minded when it comes to music

    @Antimatter

    how awesome would it have been if there was a WFC level with Optimus, Kup, and Hot Rod?

    Also, why did High Moon not include Kup and Hot Rod, two of the best autobots?

  • AntimatterAntimatter Devo Was Right Gates of SteelRegistered User regular
    Hot Rod is the worst so there's that
    But the lack of Kup is criminal
    There def should've been like a Prime, Ironhide, and Kup level

  • Butler For Life #1Butler For Life #1 Twinning is WinningRegistered User regular
    hot rod is not the worst

    Kup needs a brash, young hotshot to be exasperated at.

    Who is better at that than Hot Rod?

    @Antimatter How long should I wait to get a 3ds xl? Heard that the next phoenix wright AND layton are going to be on it, but not the ds - therefore I must upgrade at some point.

    When can you comfortably afford it is the real question

    I could comfortably afford it right now. But I should probably spend that money on a vacuum cleaner instead.

  • skettiosskettios Enchanted ForestRegistered User regular
    Just guessing of course. I don't really keep a budget. Somewhat frugal by nature so I more or less keep mental tabs on how much is coming in vs going out

  • AntimatterAntimatter Devo Was Right Gates of SteelRegistered User regular
    get the vacuum cleaner instead, wait a while for the 3DS
