Reading as you update, mostly, for the record, and enjoying.
Neat arrow fire CG. I forget, is it the first one you're come across?
Thanks!
And I believe it is!
We're thrown straight into the action in the next story mission. No way I can stay behind and kick their asses. Thorndyke's level 12.
Haggard man whhhhyyyyy
Raise my ACT, move 2-3 more tiles!
Merrigold will hold them off.
Latula can be a meatshield too.
If they get in the way, kill them!
THAT was quick.
Our Sepps rush on ahead, and...
We get a new room.
Who the fuck?!
MUH ROOM.
CHanged my own room so it ha 5 spots now. Placing myself in the back for extra security. Hired a knight.
We're lost and WHAT ARE THOSE
Plants appear to.......look mean. There's only 1-2 per squad, so I think I can take them on.
Bad vibes pls
Holy shit these guys act like artillery
TAKE COVER
BURN EM
PUNCH PLANTS TO KILL THEM. I will certainly remember this in real life.
Each squad takes a corner in the map. Playing defensively, I keep my army in full health.
-
That level 3000 boss is awake. Shit's about to go down.
Wow, this guy looks badass. He has pistols too!
Did you just make a superman reference?
Hey dude don't get us involved!
Well, time to fight our way out of this mess. And damn, I wasted my room decor for nothing.
Haggard Man is extremely high-leveled and is stealing my exp points.
CUT THROUGH THEM
Note to self: Don't piss off NPCs in town
She got killed hard by Haggard Man
Los Banditos hold their own. That's because the soldier unit is mostly shit.
Unfortunately Latula's attack is too low to hurt an armored knight.....
BUT XCOM WINS
Knights can be purchased now. They have horrible Resistance, but high defense, hp, and attack.
I can now use 4 rooms!
-
STORY TIME.
LEVIN IS BUTTMONKEY
What I like about the story is that the lines aren't clear-cut. Christophe seems to be good but he's more concerned with his city. Gig is supposedly a mass murderer but there's a sort of human side to him where he enjoys his hotpods and teasing Dan.
I knew the next battle is gonna be hectic.
-
IT'S A TRAP
Nothing to do but to report back to the boss. That damn kid baited us.
New rooms here.
I don't like Sinner's Cell.....
After 10 minutes of changing rooms, I finally get one that has more than 4 open positions and allows me to keep Merrigold's previous formation.
Who the hell?
I have a feeling the next battle will be horrible. Equipping some decor.
Back to Raide we go..
Let's have some fun. I may be a hero but I'd like to abuse the common man every once in awhile.
Random facts on nereids, probably may become a plot point later on. Maybe.
Banter banter banter. Everyone just loves to abuse Levin the country hick.
-
This must be a trap. I know it.
The Nereids think we're thieves. We're here to commit genocide, actually.
Only kill half? Seriously?
While XCOM squad is pretty much powerful as all fuck, I still like to buff myself because using skills improves them in true Nippon Ichi fashion.
So it seems the Nereid unit can buff accuracy and attack.
They're pushovers, honestly. They don't seem to be in the class triangle. Magic units don't do additional damage to them, and ranged units don't perform less damage.
BUBBLES BUBBLES
Triss is a beast
Nereids jab pretty hard, but their defenses are lacking. Their mid-row attack also does a fair amount of damage. I guess I can call them "balanced offensive".
BEAST MERRIGOLD
Debuffs aaaahhh
This WAS too easy.
Dan has a point.
-
Breasts.
Curves.
Oh and...uh...breasts.
-
Hm...
No...
I just... read the text.
No tones, really. Maybe mine, but not other characters'.
But that's mostly because I never really played games with voice acting.
So that could change.
...
But I'm used to "just reading"... -_-'
^ Yeah, I'm the same. I don't hear character voices inside my head, just my own internal voice.
Same here. My voice is my own.
-
ION CANNON
Just a scratch. The remainder of the battle is just mop up.
-
And the story continues.
Strange new rooms. Medicine would be great for long battles but I have to leave units idle for them to actually recover stamina. Hermit Hole would be pretty good for the ultimate counterattack team, assuming the healers survive the onslaught.
Serpico and Sendo will serve as bodyguards for our archer captain here. In the future they will probably be relocated to serve in offensive melee roles, as defense isn't exactly their strong suite. Except Serpico, who will basically be a speed wall. Maybe.
It's time to journey to the oceanside where we shall face off with the Nereids. I do wonder if they're gonna get the big chest treatment.
Meanwhile, more banter between Gig, Levin (who has a huge country accent), and Dan
Whoa who the hell is this kid? And why does he have such a smug face?!
Just LOOK at that smug face. I want to kick him so bad.
Seems to be no shortage of bandits in the place.
Serpico looks pretty fucking smug too, but the good kind.
Archers and Mages can actually attack from a distance. However, only units who are capable of ranged attacks in their current room position will participate. In other words, only Latula will be shooting her bow here. Note that we have the attack disadvantage.
We gotta train up our third room. I let myself and Merrigold stay back. Merrigold debuffs enemies to make it easier for Latula and co. to kill.
Sometimes the AI is retarded and decides it has a better chance fighting me instead of our trainees. It's like they don't want Latula to level up or something.
Sendo is such a punchy fucker. He does a double punch followed by a kick. 1-2 step motherfuckers.
Eventually all the wolves/phynxes are eliminated, and we advance.
Archers can buff the range of their attacks. Sadly this does not prevent counterattacks.
The HADOUKEN is the ranged attack of the Bareknuckle class. It's highly damaging and killed Sendo in one shot.
A knife to the head kills our resident pet, leaving only our thug to defend the front line.
Merrigold continues to weaken the enemy to make them easy killing.
Let's try out the archer special attack.
Instead of only attacking the leader, the special attack targets everyone on the field after the basic attack run is over.

Skitariister / NA

They're all League of Legend names!
-
Long story segment is long. I suppose there's going to be more segments like this.
Heheh, I suppose we get 2 more heroes.
I see what you did there
Levin's an improved Bareknuckle but I don't know where to put him. Vitali is an improved Cleric
-
More story stuff. Enjoy the hilarity.
Also, a second dream. I wonder who I am.....
Also, I'm trying to score Danette because I like childhood friend romances and might be able to get into one in real life. Maybe.
-
Okay. Will do it later.
But yeah...I'm surprised not a lot of people are getting into it.
Los Banditos blitz team ready for action!
More story time. Christophe is not some typical good guy. He demands wetwork done, and we might have just played a part in starting a war.
JUST THE WAY I LIKEIT I mean no way, I'm a good guy. I think. Too many voices in head. Voices. Voices tell me to do bad things and kill people. VOICES
-
By the way unless specified, the names of units I buy are replaceable by whatever names you want.
So far only Rehab has a stake in the LP.
I need a ranged squad that can counter magic squads. My other two can cover enemy melee and ranged.
A standard Nippon Ichi feature. Merchants level up when you buy random crap from them. In Soul Nomad, you have to beat up a merchant with a maxed bar to unlock the next level. They're easy, fortunately.
Upgraded decor items. Good shit.
Astec city has some......eccentric inhabitants. Am I the only sane man?
And here's another random as fuck feature. Using items that can combine people, I can fight the townspeople (without them knowing it) and assimilate their stats into my own.
Some more selected quotes
-
There's eels in my hovercraft!
-
This is all just a big mistake. Now you'll pay for it.
They charge....to their deaths.
FUcking love death charge
Archers? CHAAARGE
Beat it in 1 minute. What a bunch of pushovers.
Now he's trying to play nice. I'll GUT YOU. SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD. MAIM, KILL, BURN
Filthy merchant. I'll spare you for the time being.
Oooh Danette.
New rooms that don't make sense
New units!
Archer - Standard ranged unit that can attack from all positions in a room with varying effects.
Bandit - Low defense, high speed unit that can possibly be dodge tanks if placed in the front row.
-
Grinding on Soul Nomad is not required. The only thing that sucks is getting the rooms you want. But one time I played that game I just did main characters only run. So many options when everyone is together.
Okay, I see.
UPDATE TIME
We can check the Gig Edict shop here.....aka an item shop.
And the decor shop. This is where I can buy upgrades that last for 1 battle, unless I'm doing Inspections.
With our new units we form the 3rd squad. I let the Phynx be the leader because I can use his high movement range.
Move on! More bandits in our way!
Staying put for a turn to see what these new guys are. They remind me of hoodlums. A Thief class, perhaps? High evade, medium attack, low defense...
I can't target them either when they go invisible with Fade Out.
However, we outnumber them, and they quickly fall to our counterattacks.
These enemies stayed put the entire time. I wished they'd just charge me. Would've made things quicker.
Looks like Thief Leaders have Lupin Snatch, a move that debuffs and....robs something?
Whatever, the counterattack killed him anyways.
Gotta let the newbies level up.
Wanted to use Bolt Charge but that guy died before it could be used.
We've arrived at the city of Astec. Perhaps they would know how to take out a World Eater?
Everywhere we go, assholes and ignorants like you keep showing up.
He's saved by his Deep South accent.
Gig. Gig. GIG.
-
A new room that allows for movement after summoning!
New units.....awesome!
The Phynx can move far with his high ACT and he has pretty solid stats.
The Bareknuckle is pretty hardcore with attack but lacking everything else.
They're up for naming.
-
T-they look so happy!
These wolves are pushovers. Throwing rocks kills them pretty well.
You sad, sad fuck. Why don't you turn yourself into experience points?
His "assistant/sidekick" is also a joke.
BRING IT DIO
He's actually pretty powerful. Nearly killed Danette with a single attack.
But he's a total glass cannon. A blast from Triss took him out easily.
Gig seems to know something.....or not.
I really pity Danette in this scene.
-
Less talking more fighting
Quit yo bitchin' Dan.
First a World Eater, and now a masked man? Well shit.
You poor fuck.
Hooray, we can use items now. And do level grinding.
TO BATTLE
-
It's time to DIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
OH GOOOD WHAT THE FUUUU----
In this moment of weakness.....I want to give in to Gig...but never! My body is my own. MY MIND IS MY OWN-asKJDGASDSUUAISD
Poor, poor Galahad. Well he was pretty incompetent anyways....
-
Fuck, give me a challenge next time.
Shut up, both of you. It's because of our awesome units J.Page, Triss, and Sami that we won. And Kotaro, but fuck that guy. I am the one true hero.
New unit! The Soldier.
Bye Kotaro. I won't miss you.
Changing rooms gives me a weird mid + rear row only Security Room. Great for meatshields, but all I want at the moment is another room. I guess Sami can throw rocks for awhile. I stuff another Pyremage and Soldier in there.
It appears the Soldier unit has generally poor stats but 20% of them go to the leader. ALso, molotov cocktail attack sounds fun.
Alright, let's take down this World Eater.
Wait, WHAT?
HOOOLY SHIT THAT BANDAGE GUY BLOCKED THAT ATTACK WITH HIS SWORD.
TO THE PAIN!!!
Merrigold is a mage leader, so her squad receives reduced damage from the Paladin squads because they're a melee type. In other words, she and co. rape.
XCOM squad just rapes everyone.
Pyremages can also burn the fuck out of faraway units without fear of counterattack using Terror Blaze. Whoever's left can then be wiped out.
Let's Play: Soul Nomad and the World Eaters - COMPLETED
in General Gaming
Posted
The hero, aka me, uses a fireball blast from his sword when place behind the front lines. Still doesn't match the Pyremage's fireball.
MOTHER OF FUCK GET IT OFF OF ME
As long as I stay in the forest where I get +10% defense so my men don't die from the initial attack, I'm alright.
I do wonder. If they ran so fast, HOW did we get here at the same time they did? The game mentions this, but never answered.
Oh guys quit talking, we're probably surrounded.
HAGGARD MAN
So his name is Endorph. Eh's a pretty nice/cool guy.
They sure have some interesting things to say.
FOOOOOOOD
WELL, THIS IS HAWKWARD
