@poss_bot @Moot @KommaChameleon @Crocabit this thread is ending my life
@ShugoWah @poss_bot @Moot @KommaChameleon @Crocabit of course, it's hard to beat anyone using such an advanced control method as this

@ShugoWah @poss_bot @Moot @KommaChameleon @Crocabit or even the dreaded dual Namco rotary controller combo. How do you even compete with that?
@KommaChameleon @Felthry @ShugoWah @Moot @Crocabit (listen i kinda actually want this bc i have a copy of VOOT for DC)
@poss_bot @KommaChameleon @ShugoWah @Moot @Crocabit what's VOOT?
@Felthry @poss_bot @Galuade @ShugoWah @Moot @Crocabit Virtual On is a one-on-one mecha fighting game from the 90s featuring a behind-the-back camera and a dual stick control scheme. It's played split screen or on separate displays.
VOOT is "Virtual On Ontario Tangram", the Dreamcast version of the game.
@Felthry WHOOPS I kinda typed it wrong, it's "Oratorio Tangram". It's a pretty thesaurus name but
Oratorio = a large-scale opera
Tangram = a puzzle about rearranging shapes
So it's basically a fancy way of saying "Virtual On: Grand Remix". Tangram is also the name of one of the game's villains.
@KommaChameleon that's still a rather strange name.
@KommaChameleon though I guess plenty of games have really strange names. Radiant Historia, Infinite Undiscovery, Exist Archive

@poss_bot @ShugoWah @KommaChameleon Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories
@poss_bot @ShugoWah @KommaChameleon also Legend of Dragoon
@poss_bot @ShugoWah @KommaChameleon which would probably make sense if it had an article in there and I think it actually does but the logo makes it very unclear whether it's The Legend of Dragoon or Legend of the Dragoon

@ShugoWah @Galuade @poss_bot @KommaChameleon oh, Lunar: Silver Star Story is kind of awkwardly worded
@ShugoWah @Galuade @poss_bot @KommaChameleon also, a number of Square games: Final Fantasy itself, and Breath of Fire, Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, ~~Chrono Break~~, maybe Vagrant Story
@ShugoWah @Galuade @poss_bot @KommaChameleon and other Enix games: Act Raiser, Soul Blazer, Star Ocean Til the End of Time, Robot Alchemic Drive
@KommaChameleon @ShugoWah @Galuade @poss_bot oh absolutely; it's the Til the End of Time bit that doesn't make sense
@KommaChameleon @ShugoWah @Galuade @poss_bot maybe I haven't played it recently enough to remember that, I just remember the plot went _really weird_ at the end
@Felthry @ShugoWah @Galuade @poss_bot I always thought Star Ocean was a pretty cool name; it's like you're exploring new places on a boat but in space this time
