[RFC] Being You is Deculture

[Black Aeronaut]

I remember you mentioning the Megaroad showing up over Tenchiverse earth before...

Oh yeah, that was you!  Sorry about that - it's just been that long for me.  

As for using the M30 people in the story, well, that's up to you if you want to; I do think it would be really cool but also adding a whole new layer of complication to the plot. The Macross does replace the Vrlitwhai Kridonik (SDF-7 I think? Maybe 15, but also a Macross class.) for about the last third or so of the game, which I had somehow forgotten when talking about it earlier, so if you want to draw on M30 for part of the story it's easy enough - just follow the altered timeline and you're there with another sixty years of potential mecha technology to draw on, and a ready source of superdimensionally-active materials similar to Fold Quartz as well. Orobous Stone is everywhere, and Frost Crystals from the glacier area are specifically useful as high-grade engine components in the crafting system, which I take to include any high-energy systems like beam weapons, fold drives, and so on.

Yeah, I certainly need to do my research.  The fun part is going to be getting a better idea of what the world-building of Tenchi-verse is really like so I can see about where I can insert those superdimensional materials as something that was never really noticed, or was simply overlooked because reasons.  BUt don't worry, I'm sure I'll figure something out.

Really, this stuff is all probably going to be part of a side-story that I'll tackle later on - what goes on in Macross-verse after Garrick blips out of there.  And I suspect that things that Garrick says and does would have some serious knock-on effects that would affect the outcome of the M30 storyline, even if that was taken without me altering it to my tastes.

With no fan-patch version available anyway, there's no need for a hacked console - the PSP and PS3 have no region locking, and my impression is that the Vita is the same. The M30 trophies even sync up to my US PSN account just fine.

Unfortunately, I have neither of those systems, nor any disposable income to buy either one - even if they are previous gen systems.

Oh, a question - are you using the SDFMTV visual designs here, or DYRL? Official continuity has used the more detailed DYRL style with TV events, but since I don't think you've mentioned whether the Macross was grey or white and blue, it's so for open to interpretation.

Honestly, I've never seen DYRL - mainly because of how they make the Zentradi look like green men from another planet at the time it was produced.  (I thought what they did to Exedore in Macross 7 was just plain ridiculous.)  But I guess that I should, just for the mecha designs if nothing else.  Oh, and Macross Zero as well.
