OBJECTION! There is a flaw in your argument!! How could you know that said person was Sue without playing the game already? HMMM??? I've got you cornered D.C....
And because this is Balrog you're talking about here, that's kind of a moot point, isn't it? After all, for all we know, he DOES have a nose, and it just isn't visible. Or in any way pronounced (i.e., the way we have a nose on our face, but some other creatures might just smell through their skin or something, or have a patch of such skin that they smell through).
And on the technical side, it's from Japan. Noses are optional when it's made in Japan, gotta love anime[esque] art.
So... you are a doctor Who Fan too? Then here is a serious question... Do you think the newer series is better than the older series from the 80s? ... It matters...
I love this game but there is one thing I've noticed. The way the characters are facing it looks like the could either be staring straight ahead or they could be looking at the player. Kinda creeps me out then I think that everyone is staring at me.
He does have a name. You can find out what it is if you get the best ending. (Specifically, there's a bunch of stuff you have to do to open the secret level, and you find out his name at the end of that sequence.)
If I'm recalling my japanese cuisine properly, I believe Balrog is supposed to be a bento box. It's basically a lunch box, except it's smaller, thicker, and you eat the food right out of it like a lunchtray.
I recall somewhere on the internet, there being an interview with Pixel.. I believe he said that Balrog isn't exactly made to look like anything in particular, and it's up to the player's imagination on what he is.
I, personally, always thought he looked like a Toaster Oven.
i'm with crab! not everyone is good at translation, so this kind of thing happens alot. like in several Free MMOs, common problem, an example: 'you have received *insert party member's name* from item' when they get it. so don't worry about something this small.
That is so funny... If you even imagined how many historical mistranslations lead to mistakes, errors and myths. Like "tongue taste zones", for instance.
Balrog is pretty unique in terms of minions/antagonists. And useful for carrying your lunch... or maybe toasting bagels. I can never tell which. Funny catch phrase though.
You fools, he's a toaster. There is no doubt! He can't be a lunch box/suit case, as he has no handles. And, one of his attacks involves taking you inside of him and shooting you out of the top of his head. NO DOUBT!
Haha, technically shouldn't you not have known that was Sue yet ;D? It would have been interesting to hear you commentate your first playthrough..but if your first playthrough of this game was anything like mine, this commentary would have various stages of quietly weeping and swearing.
Anyway. Awesome as always. "I get people to calm down by SHOOTING them." is classic.
AHHH!!?? no more cave story vids?? well u did make it today. u got me hooked on ure shadowrun vid and now i wanna see more lol. Cmon DC im a big fan dude. u make me laugh w/ out swearing and thats hard to do.
HAHAHA Altered Beast reference for the win. I say power up just like that whenever I grab one on newer games. Now if only there was a way to wize fwom you gwabe after you die...
