Ahh, thanks ChishioKunrin. To be fair to the opening, it was really only the fight with "Reptile Guy" and Ruby that looked like it was ocuring under water.

As for 24fps... that's the standard fps for pretty much all video media. While the origins of that number are unknown to me, it seems that video hardware these days runs best in multiples of 24. Which is why Peter Jacksons The Hobbit movies weren't filmed at 60 fps, but 48.

Similarly, Gaming hardware is designed to best operate with an fps measured in 30s. This, however, is where the difference between video and game comes into play, and why they should be treated seperatly: see, most games check your imputes every frame, so a 60fps game is demonstrably twice as responsive as a 30fps one. As for movies...

Well... look, I watched the Hobbit movies, and aside from seeing a half-dozen afterimages and causing me physical eye pain for the first five minutes of the movie the first time I watched it... I saw no noticeable difference.

On top of that, we should also bear in mind the 3D video making process - namely that the two biggest time sinks in production are creating/rigging models and rendering. Now I have yet to actually do any rendering, but it's more or less where all the objects, animations, lights, and other variables are set in motion and recorded as a video file, frame-by-frame. From what I understand, a short 5-10 minute animation would(depending on complexity)generally have a rendering time measured in hours. Doubling the fps could double the rendering time from overnight to all day long.

Oh, and if there's a crash? You need to start all over again.

as for the rest of your responses SomeoneYouUsedToKnow...

2-I agree with you on at least one of other 3 people serving under Salem going after RNJR(for much the same reasons); both because it would be a waste to not use them, and because I doubt these kids have caught up to her in a few months.

I didn't mean to imply that Reptile Guy was dumb; just he might have a tendency to make poor tactical decisions, but is so skilled that these "mistakes" almost never catch up to him.

5-I too know that Personas and Shadows are one and the same; this is first time I've heard of "friendly" ones, though I almost assumed they existed somewhere. I guess I should try and finish Persona 4...(I have finished P3 but it's not the same...)

Also, the "ears" on the Faunus look a lot like Fennec Fox Ears.
