Zero Punctuation: Ni No Kuni 2

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit a minute: is this game leading to a twist where we overthrow one tyrant to install another? Far Cry 4 already did that!
Oh, and speaking of Far Cry, I watched Yahtzee's review of 5 before this, and it dawned on me: did he move to America, and somewhere in the San Francisco Bay Area in particular? He says "Bay Area" like it's the only one that matters in the whole country, and used the San Francisco Chronicle in a sight gag.
I'm now recalling a line of his from The X-Presidents: "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, but I WILL fuck you up!"Morthasa said:

I'm not sure how he found himself under levelled. Just by walking about fighting the enemies, I ended up so over powered that almost every confrontation is a piece of piss, including the bosses. They get a bit harder towards the end, but never much of a challenge. The only times I've actually died is trying to take on a Tainted Monster that is too high a level for me.
But having said that, I quite like Ni No Kuni, its not Persona 5 good, but it is still enjoyable enough. Yeah, the kingdom building is not terribly deep, but it is somehow satisfying to stick a bunch of people into dead end jobs with no chance of promotion or escape.

He mentioned being close to Hollywood (well, the US entertainment industry) in some old streams so I'm guessing California.Zetatrain said:
Also the only way this could possibly be a more Japanese take on things would be adding giant robots and WHAT THE HELL IS THAT
Wow. Just, wow. That is American as BALLS.moosemaimer said:He mentioned being close to Hollywood (well, the US entertainment industry) in some old streams so I'm guessing California.Zetatrain said:

Oh, and I watched his Twitch stream and he said he's somewhere in NorCal. Maybe he does live near San Francisco, given how he joked about the traffic in WATCH_DOGS 2.
Dunno, man, I'm from the middle of nowhere, and even I think Frisco when I hear "the Bay Area". In fact, I couldn't tell you off the top of my head what other US cities have one. I can think of two that have harbors but that's as close as it gets.Darth_Payn said:
Fuck me if that plot about the President of the US going to fantasy land didn't sound really kick ass.
Does the game ever explain why President Clinton transforms into President Walken when he gets teleported to anime land?
Seriously, am I the only one who thinks Bill Clinton looks strikingly similar to Christopher Walken when you put that anime hair on him?

He's absolutely not kidding about the President of the United States part. I thought it was a joke, but no, it's an actual thing. It's such an absolutely bizarre choice, but an awesome one.
The President of the United States was transported to fantasy land, de-aged, and... came with a sidearm?
For some reason, it's that last part that has me baffled. I mean, I guess that technically the President could be carrying a sidearm, it just doesn't seem to imply much faith in your Secret Service detail.

The only JRPG I can play nowadays is the Trails series. Even Persona is failing to hold my interest.
Damn, I want Sen IV so badly.

He does drop a line in the ensuing fight about not having much ammunition for it, so odds are he wants to save the rest for emergencies. Can't exactly imagine that the Ghibli-esque fantasy world is brimming with .40 S&WAlienmen1 said:
Though it does strike me that him being low after a single shot would imply he was on a road trip back home after having already iced some motherfuckers before getting nuked, which is rather amusing.
