Kid Icarus: Uprising

^Have you tried it?

This part is pretty disappointing. It feels like a handicap.
I've tried it twice and it's very uncomfortable. I always switch it right back to the normal controls because I can't move around easily.
 
I started using the Hedgehog Claws I bought.

Overall Defense +1
Running Speed +4
Item Attack +2

4 & Half Ranged Power
2 Melee Power
Value: 275

I personally love Pit's cheery attitude. And even though smashgoom keeps going on about how annoying he is and pointing out the flaws, I think all the characters are great. And I love Dark Pit's attitude, he's a dick to everybody. Its the polar opposite of Pit, which suits him well. Also, the battles against him are extremely fun, like Light Vs Dark with a CPU. Too bad their always so easy.

I'll do Chapter 15+ later on.

Wait, what happened
between those three years? And what happened to poor trollish Palutena!!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!??!!?!??
Perhaps we'll find out in the next chapter... Which I am playing now! :D

You know, I might have underestimated how nice Viridi is, she went to the trouble of rescuing Pit and now she's helping him rescue Palutena from whatever delusion she's under. I always kind of thought that way, if only to defy how stupidly binary Pit's views of good and evil are.

Lightning chariot, a fast battle vehicle... Cool, I suppose. Wait, it's pulled by unicorns?! HELL FREAKING YES!!!

You know, as blunt as Viridi is, she's no worse then Palutena. Palutena always puts Pit in life-threatening situations. I can kind of understand why people would find her (and her voice) annoying, but it doesn't bother me that much.

lol, poor Pit's being shot out of a canon. :P Hey, if Mario can do it, so can Pit!

I rather like Hades. He's a bit... campy, which fits his desire to see others suffer.

I like the design of the master of the Lightning Chariot. Badass.

lol, wow, a Donkey Kong reference! Well, considering there's no fourth wall...

That wind section was a bitch, especially sense I ended up messing up and wasting those Speed Boots I was given!

"Look, the Chariot Master has an Exo Tank!" "Maybe he's a gearhead." "Or a nerd." What's the difference?

"100 gold" What's the use of gold if HEARTS are the currency used in this universe?! Besides, those guys are the minions of Hades, does he really need a reward as an incentive for them to do their work? ...Well, probably...

Hades sure likes to mess with people... You can't trust a thing thing he says... I love this guy!

LOL "This place is so huge, we even had a loading screen back there!" I know I thought I was heading for the boss fight, if only because there was a Drink of the Gods right beforehand.

HOLY CRAP, I'm fighting Plutons! I never made it that far in the original Kid Icarus, but I knew that Plutons were indestructible enemies that stole items from Pit, only to be sold again in Black Markets. Here, thankfully, they're beatable, and it looks like you have to beat them if you're items are stolen. I'd like to think of them as being on the same level of infamy as Reapers and the Eggplant Wizard. Awesome.

Have I mentioned that the Cherubot is the most awesome thing in this game? Well it's the most awesome thing in this game!

Aww, isn't that nice, Viridi gave Pit a hot spring. :3

"Phos" huh? Also, this Chariot Master is so badass...

I like hearing this guy's backstory, and questioning Pit's motivation... He's like an old, world-weary warrior, and I like those kinds of archetypes. And the other unicorn's name is Lux. That's cool. This was a neat chapter.

Edit: And now I beat chapter 20.

AWESOME! Playing on the Lightning Chariot is like a classic space shooter! I love those kinds of play styles!

Oh... So that's what that green guy was like... Well, it looks like Pit and Palutena made a whoopsie, but then again, if Viridi hadn't been so violent and destructive, and actually TOLD what the Lunar Sanctum was for... Wait, why did they go to that place anyway? I'll have to re-play that chapter...

Chaos Kin... New bad guy, what a surprise... I also love how Pit is COMPLETELY clueless about EVERYTHING about the world. He really needs to get out more. Then again, he makes for a good excuse to have characters explain everything to us.

Phosphera's back and holding onto the Lightning Chariot... Yeah, a perfect match for someone like her.

Um... Yeah, Pit, you ARE naive. Don't try to deny it. Even though Palutena isn't herself, that part is at least true. I also have to admit, even though she likes messing with Pit, she IS a Goddess, and if Viridi is anything to go by, it's nice to have a Goddess that's actually nice and caring, if a little playful.

More infor on the Chaos Kin and... Viridi mentions nipples... or was it nibbles, dammit I couldn't hear it that well!

Hades is back... Man, and here I was thinking he'd be the main villain, but screw it, there are too many villains to keep track of! Hades DOES raise a good point, about how Pit can't decide what deserves to live and what doesn't just because it doesn't suit his liking... But then again, he's evil, so he WOULD defend the Chaos Kin. And besides, who created the Gods, anyway? Or have they just always been? This game has so many layers, I love it!

You know, I'd like to say I never thought I'd have to fight Palutena... But in all honesty, I'm more surprised to see Palutena actually fight at all!

Oopsie... I didn't think I didn't have to hurt her... Apparently, there's a bug just above her. I WISH I could say I feel bad... But actually I don't. Yeah, accidents happen.

That's it? That was quick, I expected more of a fight... I'm also a little disappointed that the the bad guy here was just a bug, but then again, we could use a variety of bad guys here, since we've got so many of them in this game.

OH SHIT that damn bug just stole Palutena's... soul? And Dark Pit just opened up the gate wider?! Why? I thought he hated Palutena? Maybe he's changed and thought things through over 3 years...

"Save your game". No fourth wall here.
 
God damn it. (No Pun intended) I just want to listen to the boss and Pit's conversation but I take them out in mere seconds and never get a chance to listen. The Bosses are never hard :/

Also, I love this part around Chapter 20, with all the plot twists and such.
 
Dude, Twinbellows will make you his fucking chew toy on 7 intensity plus.

I beat Chapter 1 on 9 intensity and I nearly shat my pants at how intense the fight was. Thank God I have Health Recovery, Land Mine, and that one charge that boosts your attack. Survived with a sliver of health.

Don't get me started on Hewdraw or Dark Lord Gaol on 7 intnsity.

And Cragalanche on 5 intensity....

ugh...

Try playing on higher difficulties, and you'll see how wrong you are.

Yeah, I know, but I'm reckless and tend to die on the stage before the boss. I usually do 4.5, but I'm doing 4 now, because I died a couple of times on 4.5

But it's fine now.

I did 7 Inetensity Chapter 1, it was hell. Barely won, so I doubt I'll go higher.
 
Do you guys know of any good powers (especially for together mode). I feel mine aren't that well. I got Health Recovery, Effect Recovery, and Reflect Barrier.
 
I Beat the game. Great game, and lengthy.

A Part in the ending took me by surprise, you'll know it when it happens.

I use
Health Recovery
Sky Jump (Can be good for making some Shortcuts)
Effect Recovery
Crisis Recovery
Heart Booster
Celestial Firework (for the hell of it, its useless)
