Words Cannot Express How Much I Love The Nopon. Legit One Of My Favourite RPG Races Because They Are

Words cannot express how much I love the Nopon. Legit one of my favourite RPG races because they are so insanely goofy.

Their looks? Cutie patooties. Their aura? Smug and mocking. Attitudes? Annoying. I want to punt the lot of them into a brick wall and I love them for that.

Hilarious. Show-stopping. I want 25 of them.

The Nopon from Xenoblade are the funniest fucking species of cutesy creatures in any RPG because they're all a bunch of assholes. You look at their adorable little faces and think they're innocent and kind. No!! They have jobs! They have children! They fuck!!!

They have an entire village tradition where they designate one Nopon to be the village's hero, except it's all bullshit and they're just sending their most problematic villager to go get killed in battle so they stop being a pain in the ass.

There's several side quests where a Nopon will ask you go to kill a family of wild animals for no reason other than it's annoying them. There's an entire underground drug cartel in the Nopon village.

Nopon should be an example for other rpgs on how to make the funniest npcs.

These vinyl covers actually have me so MESSED UPPPP they look so good. I can’t wait to see if the vinyls themselves look as pretty as the covers

Seeing all of the three houses fan art influx after its 5 year anniversary brings me a sort of intense nostalgia and longing I do not feel very often. They put crack into that game I played it like over 10 times, I fear.

The routes. The character story drama. The fan art that looks like it belongs on the walls of the Sistine Chapel. Please let me watch the Seiros vs Nemesis opening cutscene for the first time again TAKE ME BACK PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEA-

STOP ITTTT

Sorry, but the whole “Hector is wearing Achilles’ own armor, taken from my corpse. It looks, almost, as if Achilles is chasing himself.” part just has me thinking… Who is Achilles truly hunting down on that battlefield? The man who killed Patroclus, or the man who let Patroclus walk into his demise? Who is Achilles trying to punish? Who is he truly trying to kill? Hector or himself?
