Renamed Psynergies; What is this I don't even...

Looking at the EU site I noticed that frost was called Cold Snap. Figured it was just a crazy europe thing, then I checked out the US site. It's the same there.

I'm going out on a wing here and saying it may not be the only thing renamed...

Seems kinda unnecessary for a name as simple as "Frost," to be honest.

Now, renaming Rockfall and Avalanche, for example, would make perfect sense.

The Blast in the Nova series is confirmed to be Starburst. That's the only other one I know.

Well, that made sense, since there's two blasts. Bust some just seem unnecessary.

Good call with the name change for the topic, by the way. There's more than just the one psynergy that got a name change...

Does anyone know if Pound and Crush are the same, or are they different in the japanese too?

uh oh

From what I've seen in this thread they're probably going for a more literal translation than the original. Shame.

Pound and Crush? I haven't played TLA in a long while, but I only remember Pound o.0

Crush is a new psynergy show cased in a Gs DD video. It appears very similar to Pound, but has differences.

Pound was rather known as Press in the Japanese version... But functionally speaking, Crush is the fusion between Pound and Burst.

Now about the reason the thread got made, "Cold Snap" sounds like getting your nether parts frozen, and taking account the ball dropping of "Frost → ??? → Frostbite" and the Care (Fresh Breeze) series I think the localizers didn't have a good sense of hierarchy with Psynergy...

That's a shame, really. Oh well, hopefully they'll listen to any complaints that pop up and address them in the next game. Considering how bland literal translations usually are, I'll often take woolseyisms over them, so long as they're done well.

Cold Snap is not Frost. They have different names in Japanese as well.

There just happen to be new Psynergies that have the same functions as previous Psynergies for some reason.

Oh so they added more things like how you could use Gale instead of Whirlwind at a cheaper PP cost? Now THAT's interesting.

Yeah, I've noticed. Kinda like how Arid Heat works like parch, but isn't. It looks like the costs and base damage is different from frost, frost just isn't there so that there's a reason to have Cold Snap.

Also: Loving how they give entire LINES. When you're a lower level and you get yourself one of those, suddenly it becomes a main source of damage. I mean, dang, my unleashes weren't even close to the top tier Arid line for a while.
