Acacia Sgt

I'd say, outside the whole waiting for the charging bar to get the full power of the attack, it's such a fun ride so far. I ended up going to Gaia's Navel before Pandora, but it seems it wasn't too much of a hassle. Outside not recruiting Primm earlier, I guess. Made it to the dungeon area of the witch's castle. Will continue tomorrow.

Time to resume Secret of Mana.

Yeah, it's quite a bummer. Even just knowing what were the original plans would be nice, but even that can become lost forever. Either through being forgotten, or jut plain never revealed on purpose. With SoM we know at least some of the axed elements would be used for Chrono Trigger. Though I can't recall if it was revealed which exactly.

Well, I did, reaching up to the Mantis Ant. Crono, is that you!? I'm aware of a few tidbits of the game's development. Quite fascinating. Shame a whole lot had to be axed, and any chances of seeing some of that stuff in any official capacity seem slim. A remake, like this one, would aim to be faithful to the original finished product than restoring some of the original aspects now that it'd be possible. Ah well, it happens, I guess. Found this place long ago: https://manaredux.com/ Containing quite a bit of info. Fascinating stuff. Okay, stopping for now. Will continue tomorrow.

Well, that was fun. I'm tempted to start Secret of Mana already. Hmm...

Dude thinks he's Dark Fact taking the floor like that. AHAHAHAHAHA, it's done! Now to just reach the end...

Alright, time to end this... will need to get Trails in the Sky The Third at some point, but it's fine for now.

It just hit me the Wonder post was probably not a non-sequitur. Sorry, my bad.

I mean, you seem set in not revealing the game, so I wanted to have fun with it.

So Warriors?

Alright, Loewe defeated. > Has Kevin in the party Well, this totally ain't foreshadowing of anything, nah uh... "How many remixes of Silver Will do you want in this game?" "Yes." Okay, so, I decided on Kloe and Kevin to be in my final party. Because Soul Blur and Earth Guard/Wall spam go brrrrrr. I might actually end this today, after work.

Yeah, heh, it's basically what I've pretty much almost always done with buying games. Due to doing it for years before I had an income. Rarely do I buy for full price.

Although, I am definitely gonna use a controller for Secret of Mana. Okay, three Enforcers "down" (in several senses of down, hue). Will continue tomorrow.

It's fine. Though I keep telling myself to use a controller when playing on Steam, I keep forgetting... well, recently I more or less just went with it anyway.

Okay, time for the Axis Pillar. Combined with the red-painted Glorious, this is sounding very much familiar... I know there's the fast-travel through the rails, but I would've still preferred for the party members to, like, assembled outside. So at least switching the party wouldn't need too much backtracking.

Heard about that. Biggest shame had to be the removal of multiplayer. Sounded so cool to have three people play together. I suppose it would, heh.

Okay, the final stretch. Will continue tomorrow, perhaps. I'm finishing the game on the workweek for sure. Hmm, what to do later, on that subject. Was thinking Secret of Mana. I finished Adventures of Mana long enough already (which still baffles me why it's not on PC yet), so perhaps it's time to do Secret of Mana now.

I didn't even let him attack for the third battle, pft.

Guess they didn't want to go the extra mile there, huh. lol Now I'm wondering if something similar (not necessarily a battle happening while she's sleeping) did actually happen in Nadesico...

Ah, I see, heh. Pft, now you reminded me of Lefina going to battle in her nightie. lol
