The Roger The Paladin Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Spoiler The only catch with it, is it doesn't work so well in Golden Deer due to Claude/Ignatz and Leonie not getting Deadeye. But Ashe or Bernadetta can both do it with ease. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: They are offended that you picked a bad unit over them, and they fill themselves with sand so nobody can use them. I mean, who the hell would want to wear sandy boots? Kefka intensifies. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Holy shit, that's so contrived. The poor girl. To be honest, her second death was one of the worst written stories I've seen. But then again... it's not doing them any favors when they bring her back in a way that basically makes her guilty of genocide. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: That sounds hilarious. Sankuro's needless aggression to everyone is funnier than it should be just because it reminds me of the "I'll kill you" threats here. Shame he's kind of a scumbag. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh, dear... Wait, that's the kind of face you make? Should I be worried...? I didn't mean the face. Not that anyone could tell with all the hair on it. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...tell me, how long were you fighting over making the obvious joke or not making it because it was, well, so obvious? 12 seconds. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I am so sorry I made this. Truly, I am. Why does Marth have Squidward's nose? 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I'm so glad to have caused your death in such a manner. ...That's so easy to take out of context. Please, don't...! Don't! I see you coming from a mile away! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-- Yeah. All I'd need to do is take the quote, put it with another quote from the TRS LP.... and it's done. Shame I'm too lazy. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Hoo, boy, that's some thorny territory... It's just they're both morons with a warped/paranoid worldview that resulted in needless deaths. I know that could be applied to a lot of people/characters. But in this case I think it's justified. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: This is not reassuring. You're the guy who always knows everything about the most unlikely topics. Plot twist being that I made up Shokkoth for the context of the comment... using the name of a Golem from an old Conan story because believable demon name. All because I wanted to play off the "sin" in the butterman comments. Remarkable how close he came to the truth. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I think this is the first time I'm not deploying Axel in a main mission. All the searchable houses are in the same place, none of them require winning the fight to get the stuff, and Thaddy is required for one of them. Also, no water, so might as well let the man rest. "No water" I know what you mean, but the picture makes it funnier than it should be. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: There's Vester. Doesn't really look all that lordly, but the name label says it's him, so I suppose we'll have to trust the game on that one. Not to be confused with Vesteria Saga. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Owen is a perfectly good person. Y'know, when he's not losing his shit and murdering people Today on funny out of context quotes. Amazing the difference a qualifier or two make. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: 'Kay, then. Physic time. In retrospect, that was a waste of a physic charge, but eh. It's not as rare as in other games. Rub it in why don't you. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Elementary, my dear Sherlock. Did you know Sherlock Holmes never actually said that? It's the first piece of trivia that you're told when you start looking into the character. I should hope not. It'd be weird him talking to himself in the third person. (Can I ever resist) 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Huh. Well, look at that. He actually performed. Maybe I need to risk his life more often. Adrenalin is a hell of a drug. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: We came out of that all right, but as you can see, that could've ended far, far more tragically. Not sure if the game rounds up or down, but either way, we were looking at a 20~% chance of losing Percy already. Oh, fuck me... The bane of LP'ing. Unexpected potentially fatal situations. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: He failed to touch Thaddy, and then he ran. Good job, there. Truly the bravest of trespassers. Running for his life from a guy who'd need to strike like 20 times to beat him. Maybe he heard tales of Axel... and fled assuming anyone checking houses with Sinon must be him? 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Bastards! That is the last time you endanger my units! That's right, I'll blame you for my own blunders! After all, you're going to die in about 10 seconds! And who's going to argue me, then? Huh!? If I learn from your example I'll get even more undeserved praise than I already do. Brilliant. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Wohooo! Ohohohohohahahahahahahah! Nice! Niiice! Spectacular! Formidable! Exemplary! I am proud, Perceval. Keep this up, and mayhap I shall forgive-- Shocking. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I have to congratulate you for surviving that savage onslaught. Unfortunately for you... There is no defense against the winds of destruction! Of the wind sword! Nielsen's about to be blown away. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Well, your defenses were pretty sturdy, I'll give you that. But we had the element of surprise on our side. It's not that surprising. Not to forget the power of the elements. Also, it obviously was surprising for him if you had the element of surprise. Or else you wouldn't have. 16 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: See you next time, and... Well, bit late to wish me luck, since I already finished the map before I began writing this update, but still! Hope for the best! Farewell! I know that feeling. Everyone else living on cliffhangers that are set in stone to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightBow Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) Ah crap. I missed the "Beard of Betrayal" sidequest. Or was it "Beardtrayal"? I don't remember the exact title. Spoiler On 6/27/2020 at 11:54 PM, Saint Rubenio said: If we are not careful, they may take the ground right from underneath us. A bit late for that considering they already took the ground from underneath you all the way from Leia to the Lowlands. Not to mention Bornia. This whole conversation sounds all kinds of strange. Treating basic strategies like they are some sort of rare superpower. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: More bad levels? You break my heart, Sylvis... Thankfully, it's more or less impossible for you to be bad. And she has such a good strength growth too. Well, by the standards of this game at least. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: This whole dialogue will become really funny when we actually face them. Suffice to say, the AI on these guys is... weird. The Crossbow guy can actually be provoked from below the hill. Not sure if he actually comes down there since I usually just Rossweisse him from 3 range. The archer doesn't seem to move at all. The rest I guess has the usual "stay on territory" behavior and won't cross the cliffs. Even though Ward has Climber and could do it just fine. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: No crit, but that's still some really nasty damage... I'm on my 3rd run and I never even noticed there were throwing axes with build in crit in this game. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: There goes an extra iron axe, I guess... Why not throw away the Imperial Axe? You can throw away personal possessions, you just can't trade or sell them. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Boss time. Boss is an asshole. He has Deathmatch, which essentially is a huge neon sign that says "DON'T LEAVE UNITS NEXT TO ME". Of course, he also has Arrowbane so attacking him from afar is more annoying. Oh, and a miracle charm. Because that's great. Because of course there are enemies with Deathmatch and a Miracle Charm. Don't want players to think they found a clever exploit by giving a Miracle Charm to Volo. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Better get your asses ready for the biggest beat-down of your life! Good luck with that. You can't Deathmatch someone who can't counter. So unless Sylvis switches to a Crossbow, you have to dish out medium sized beat downs like the rest. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: This, on the other hand, is worthless. Yey, brave weapon! Except terrible durability, terrible accuracy, mediocre might... Says the guy who bought the Zanbato with it's even worse accuracy and durability. Also 40 accuracy is the same as the Longspear that you love so much. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: In the end, I got the wind edge and the zanbato, and that's it. The Scimitar is a crafting material for the Harperion. Pretty nifty sword. Hits twice with great power, accuracy and a ton of crit. Scimitars won't ever show up in the shop in Navaron. I also generally like buying the Saber here, since it's a weapon that's pretty much equal to the Longsword, and I find the supply of Longswords and Broadswords can easily run out. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahah! The accuracy might be trash, but he does have Supporter. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Muerthen himself has a material. He's also a fantastic fighter. Oh yeah, and in case you forgot, he's still literally Ward. Kaga took the portrait of one of the protagonists, put a helmet on it, and called it a generic enemy portrait. And then he put the portrait on the same class as Ward, too. Amazing. What's next? Are we going to find Reese with a bandana on the enemy side? Owen with a hood? ...Derrick? Evil Derrick would have been in Christine's sidequest, so we are not going to see that one. On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Oh! Oooohhhhh! He was injured! Now that's fortunate... Now you know it's not actually Ward. Ward can't be injured. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: That's not necessarily true. At least, I'd like to believe that even the king wouldn't be that stupid... Famous last words. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: I'm pretty sure "our ally" Rosecchar is never met in person. Now that I think about it, maybe we do meet him once? But no more. Still, it's great to know that he exists and is our ally. Even if he does look like a serial molester. We do super meet him next chapter. Those crazy eyes are interesting, though. Maybe he is Webber's son? On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: E-Er... Lord Herman, what do you think of this? I am merely a military advisor. It is not my place to speak for the royal or noble families. You don't think it's your place to speak on such issues? Weren't you the one who pushed his majesty to summon... I AM JUST A HUMBLE SERVANT OF HIS MAJESTY. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: I think that's about everything. Now, only question is: we know from chapter 3 that Mordias had the Apostle, her husband and the order of knights he led murdered and blamed it on Raze, which started the whole war. Why would he do that, if the one who killed the old king was a Razite to begin with? And Roswick did say that the Eight Years of Blood were Mordias's fault... It could be that Mordias' thought it was too late to accuse the empire of the murder. Revealing the true cause after years of civil war might cause the whole mess to start all over again, considering it meant admitting that the rebels were correct about Arless' innocence the whole time. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: That's not necessarily true. At least, I'd like to believe that even the king wouldn't be that stupid... Maybe should have asked Warrenheit about the limits of Volcens' stupidity or lack thereof. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: I am quite impressed by your sense of dramatic timing. Thank you, Lord Bernard. We have been waiting in front of the door for 20 minutes to get our entrance just right. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: I have nothing else to say to you, Princess. Go home! ...but my home is still occupied by the empire... On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: At one time, I listened to Roswick... But once I considered it carefully, I realized how idiotic I was being. It would be easier to keep a demon in the courtyard than to control a man like Bernard. I have Lord Herman to thank for helping me see that. You do realize we can't possible win this war if you remove every person who is more competent then you are? I love you, dear brother, but you must accept that this is a very low bar that a LOT of people pass. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: I am very secure in myself. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: ...VERY secure in myself. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Bit late for that, I'm afraid... Wait, but how did Bernard get here so fast? I thought it took half a year for Reese to make it! Do all the letters from Lynette arrive six months late too? Though, I do suppose Reese was leading an army... Bernard probably only took a handful of knights with him. Yeah. That one is pretty strange considering how far away from Navaron the Sinnon Knights can operate within a mere month. Maybe Aethin mistook 6 weeks for 6 months or something. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Ah, he's a friend from way back. He's the head of a troupe of traveling performers. Performers? The kind of people who drug young girls and train them as dancers? What? No. We haven't been doing that for years. Turns out offering to pay people makes them want to work for you without any need for abduction, intimidation or torture. It's even cheaper then bribing tavern owners to drug their customers for you. Indeed. Because of that I'm still sitting on dozens of bottles that I have no idea what to do with. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: If you would just get some MAGIC... I mean, that's literally why she is in the library right now. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: And also for a date. I know because at least three of the game's romantic endings take place here. Kaga got some real mileage out of this hill. It's a really nice hill for story events. Sure would be a shame if something were to happen to it. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Also, Maris. This Maris is, uh... Different, from the other Maris. You know, the one from New Mystery? Best waifu from that game? Yeah... I guess that's why Aethin referred to Maris as female in the mission description. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Did he just stand there for hours!? Jesus...! Oh, and there's Thaddy. I never knew, but turns out Thaddy can also trigger this sidequest. It's just that Czene takes priority and the only way for her not to be present is if she's dead or unrecruited. Actually Thaddy takes priority for this one. So you can simply chose who gets the quest by hiring Thaddy before or after accepting it. On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Finally, just a little thing for Arthur. Mostly wanted the happiness. The happiness needed for being recruited in chapter 8 is merely 1. You only need 10 happiness to recruit him earlier then that. On 7/7/2020 at 11:58 PM, Saint Rubenio said: That's a nice line. Too bad you have to die. On 7/7/2020 at 11:58 PM, Saint Rubenio said: 'Kay, let's ambush the gate. You see, I'm actually a bit afraid of this area because I know for a fact that there's a miniboss somewhere around here. And he's gonna fuck us over if we aren't careful. Not to mention the archer with Battle Cry hiding in the dark. On 7/7/2020 at 11:58 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Because he's so good, he murders the enemy and then he gets blasted away himself. Love that smear during his attack. Looks fantastic in motion. On 7/7/2020 at 11:58 PM, Saint Rubenio said: One-handed crossbow, go! With how much she is showing off, you'd think she would actually be good at using crossbows. Well, she is most certainly the best living Crossbow user of this party, at least. On 7/7/2020 at 11:58 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Oh no. Oh my. Oh God. Oh brother. What have I done?! Sending Sherpa all alone into an enemy fort while his avoid is reduced to 0 by his Greatsword. On 7/7/2020 at 11:58 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Nielsen is general/10. He drops his sword and has shieldfaire so capturing him is inconvenient as hell. Not worth trying, to be honest. Especially since his gear and skills are set up to waste your turns. Shieldfaire ensures he blocks virtually every hit. And the Iron Shield has B durability, so it takes a while to break through that. He's a nasty reminder that in the future you can't expect to beat these guys by just hitting them with physical attacks.

Benice Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Am I the only one having issues with quoting in a spoiler? Spoiler On 7/7/2020 at 2:58 PM, Saint Rubenio said: No, that's not... That's not what you were supposed to... Ah, forget it. UGH, LET'S TRY SOMETHING ELSE. Quote To be fair, I'm pretty sure weakness only affects cripplings, not injuries. That's why Ward was able to cripple Lyarc by just whacking him. Of course, injury + weakness basically means a guaranteed cripple on the next blow, so it's worth a shot. Huh, who knew that everyone in my army other than Reese and Ward had weakness? Quote Uh... o-okay... To be fair, they're never seen in the same room, are they? It works! See?! Quote A... ah. That moment when you think I'm normal and then I mention a band named Barenaked Ladies. (They're the ones who sing the big bang theory theme song, by the way.) Quote Jesus, relax!

Saint Rubenio Posted July 10, 2020 Author Share Posted July 10, 2020 Part 42 - Slowpoke knight. Perceval: Spoiler On 7/8/2020 at 1:22 AM, Dayni said: Hide contents With the way posting on SF works sometimes I wonder. I mean, I've been writing stuff in spoilers for a couple years now. Yeesh it wasn't. True though it may be, it really wasn't. Why, you...! That's the most backhanded agreeance I have ever seen! It is one of those things to consider, hence why I'd be slow to do it while the console's relevant. As to version updates, those who are involved in CFW tend to be pretty quick at getting updates for updates to the console. I'm not sure what the current situation is on that, I'd recommend confirming that's the case before starting regardless. Heck, the optimal thing is to have two consoles, one for modding and one for legit purposes. So inconvenient... I'm really not remembering it being that bad for combat arts anyways. Gambits on the other hand....... hoo wee. Gambits were also bad, and they had the added perk that battalions are extremely wonky visually. I guess I just got too wound up in trying to respond to your love for it by going "BuT WhAT AboOt dIS BaD ThiNG?" forgetting that 1. it was just rude, 2. maybe that was just being a bit bitter because at least you're not still on the fence Hey, don't beat yourself up over it. I'd be lying if I said I don't understand, I mean, I feel the exact same way about Three Houses. I see everyone worshipping the ground that game walks on, and all I can think of is how much I'd like to love it so much, but I can't because of the myriad flaws it has. In this case, I'm the worshipper that drives others up a wall! (keeping in mind I don't count Berwick as an explicit FE game because of all the things Berwick does differently)? I hear you. This game has enough differences that it can't really be called "bootleg FE" like TRS. But where else am I going to talk about it? Dammit, I wasn't hoping you wouldn't but I picked too obvious a line. To be fair, I didn't know that one either. This one was just specific enough that a quick google search led me to the fight. The movie it's a part of is still a funny watch though. Oh yeah, it's plenty famous. As with most movies, I've heard of it, I've watched clips and enjoyed them, but I never had the time to sit down and watch it. Aka reason 1 Berwick's fucked. Yes. Oh boy, it's fog of war! Even if it's clever fog of war, I still predict this won't end well. Well... Could've ended pretty awfully there, with Sherlock and Lebrus... (Speaking of, does 3H have enemies? I... I would imagine so? I mean, I know over half the playtime is spent playing minigames and partaking in VN-styled dates, but there are still some battles here and there that have enemies in 'em... I suppose you'll confirm no and I don't think so either but I have to ask something to myself: How would they go about fixing enemy AI behaviour so that they didn't have to cheat?)If you meant to say if 3H has clever FoW like this game, the answer is nope. It's as bad as everywhere else in the FE series. And I mean, the enemy following the same rules as the player sounds like a start. That shouldn't be so difficult. It's a wonder they haven't ripped it off BWS in the 15 years this game has existed for. Generic unaware enemy generals. The stuff midgame's made of. Eyup. I mean, that's something that could be cool to see expanded on. Shame this is all we'll get I suppose. Well, it was a neat bit of worldbuilding, but the game has other priorities. I mean considering he's fictional that's obvious. I know you don't mean that, but still. Come now... ahahahah... Seriously, where was skill in this? It meant weapon skill didn't it? Yes. Dammit I am still not over it. No? I found it remarkably easy to get over. I've had worse. Now that I've finally found the source, I can't understand why you keep giving Marcel his lines. They can't scratch Marcel most of the time, much less cut off one of his limbs. STRONKBOW STRONKWAIFU-- Ahem, I mean... Yes! I mean, it can be nice in say, a fog of war map where it'll prevent an enemy from hitting you from behind if they can see you and and you can't. Unless that's not possible. But as he can move from place to place faster than Sylvis he could be good to temporarily set them up for cavs or units falling behind as well. A second overwatch is nice. Hey, I said it isn't "that good", not that it's useless or bad. Overwatch always has its uses, and Sherlock can definitely get some shit done with it, he's just not as good at it as Sylvis. To use a name like Gilgamesh for this disappoints me. Agreed. It's like they went out of their way to find the most boring, bland, unimportant, useless miniboss just so they could give him the best name in the entire game. At least he doesn't really have to be caught. He doesn't even have a general shield. There's virtually no reason to try it. Turns out Kaga decided to actually use the fourth faction that first came in Genealogy. Once. Not really, we've seen it before. For example, the bandits from that one map where we were recapturing Imperial prisoners were yellow. The Imperials from Thaddy's first map were yellow. Man Golden Deer getting shafted here and in Heroes? Shocker /s They were doomed from the start. Perceval.jpg. Yes. Sadly, yes. RULES OF NATURE INTENSIFIES Ahahahah... All of MGR's music is amazing, but I am fonder of A Stranger I Remain. And, of course, NANOMACHINES: The Theme. That is one way to just insult him. Not even an actual mage for it. Not that there was one in range. Owen was too far away, and he'd have been unreliable anyway. I did miss the not Rules of Nature one. That much is true. Still no ideas for Nanomachines though. In retrospect, I realized Nielsen surviving Reese's ripper mode was the perfect opportunity for... I remember it too. Having two faces is a new one though. Xane, is that you? Narcus, maybe? The horse looks like it's coughing from the poison. Call up BSPCA now, this monster has to be arrested. He will get arrested all right. Unless the RNG doesn't cooperate. Then he'll die. Completely irrelevant that he got hit again. I mean, it's Arturo. Who cares? ...I care, he's a good unit. Please don't die...! On 7/8/2020 at 2:55 AM, This boi uses Nino said: Hide contents Oh... I thought I had seen it or read it somewhere on the SCP wiki but I wasn't sure. I'd imagine SCP factories would need this kind of warning too, and doubly so. Oh yeah, that's cruel. Very. You should've seen the last LP, it was a mess. Oh so it turns uot FE7 was inspired from FE7's slow gameplay. Good to know 😛 Truthfully, I might one day. It's better than FE7. In my opinion, of course. It's a bit of a mixed bag, with high highs and low lows, but I believe the good in it is enough to compensate for the garbage. That's just me, though. Yeah I probably am, it's just your LPs are so thorough and long that IDK, it gave me that impression of being high-quality. Which it may still be, I mean you do put more effort into your LPs than most people, not that that's a bad thing for other people to not spend 3 hours with every update. Hey, I put effort into my LPs because I have the time for it. Others aren't so fortunate. I just hope I one day get to try one. Come to Spain. Big chunk of land at the end of Europe, you can't miss it. Heh, I predicted the in America reference. This is the FE fandom. You cannot say the word "trap" in this place without somebody following suit with "in America!" I will still chastise people for wasting their money, free to play is one thing but it's so stupidly retarded to pay for them. Specially when they are on the internet and if you really want to honk the horn, you've got the internet for that for better stuff I imagine. Eh, people can do whatever they want with their money. I don't approve, but it's not my place to force people to do what I say. Still an incel trait to be so shy around girls but who am I to judge? Many people are shy without being incels. But coupled with what he said, maybe he's just a well-intended dummy, I shouldn't judge. He does save her whenever he dies, so that's good, at least. Lol.inb4 Ruben says I can't boss him around to laugh out loud and instead laughs in softly. Which is not necessarily part of my trap but not because I was trying. Why do you make me out to be a stuck-up jerk every time? I may not be Gandhi with his 1-2=9 nuking love. But I have a 10 for nuking and conquering anyways mwahahaha! Too late, I just got a culture victory. Now you can't nuke me, I have the power of tourism. Yeah sth like "Pengaius, St. Rubenio and Benice commented on "The league shall fall if I'm in control"" blah blah, I guess it's more when someone replies to a previous update and I ignore them, and then you post the next update which is the coupled together if I got no new notifications and so your pfp doesn't appear. That's a bit wonky. Engaging commentary from me ha! Of course? Of course. How so? Wouldn't Sienna just be smacked in the head under the guise of "be quiet, woman"? Given her way with words, I imagine she'd be more likely to send Volcens crying to his room than anything else. "Volcens! It's simple history! Pay closer attention to your own family's legacy!" -"I'll have you executed for speaking up against me" "It's common sense... well, bye bye!" *teleports away* Uh... Yes. I can totally see this. Volcens would definitely react like that. Lol, that's so stupid, what a cry baby. You're only realizing now? Well duh lol. I want shit-eating boomer to save the Berwick League. Sadly, the one chapter where the portrait is actually used requires Christine to be alive, and well, if you take a look at the death counter... ...On second thought, he's a creep who comments on Christine's "child-birthing hips", so perhaps it's best that she won't have to sit through that. Yay, I achieved comedy! Very conglaturation !!! I realized that since he first opened his damn mouth. It's really not difficult to notice. Small pp? I mean maybe that's why he seethes so hard. I mean, all that armor has to be compensating for something. Oh right, god damn it. Yeah... We're kinda fucked now. Bernstol's still there, tho, so that's great! Bernstol is Reese's father, if you don't know. People like calling him Bernstool for some reason. Figured as much, that they were durable that is. +2 speed is epic. Not as epic as you'd think. Speed is kinda bad in this game. But it has its uses. Ah of course, this simple trick will make you millions of dollars. It's so dumb. We call it the "onii-chan" trick. *Sad boi noises* *Sadder boi noises* Why holy-bearded man? Sorry. I couldn't resist. Pretty much. It's so stupid, but the sheer amount that this mental health problem around the world gets ignored due to other idiotic shit like Trump's newest tweet he took while taking a dump receives is just sad. No man, just boys being boys. Never mind the fact that they can't even tell anyone because then nobody does anything and the bullies beat the crap out of them. Absolutely wonderful. Pretty neat, but not as good as Knight's Pride! I can respect that sentiment. He's searching for Excalibur, he thought he would find it here. Ahahahahahahah... His sprite does look very cool. It reminds me of Harken's official art. I just love the idle stance. So unnecessary, but so cool. Imagine getting a waifu with good stats... damn it Rebecca! You can't really compare Sylvis to Rebecca. Sylvis could have Rebecca's base stats and she'd still be 10 times better simply because of all the other stuff she can do. I mean how hard is it? Don't you have a special key attached to screenshots? Yes, but there's a reason I've considered multiple times changing the thread title to "Ruben's Grandpa Reflexes" Oof, well something is better than nothing, Yes, that's true. "Wanna know why I keep blocking? Nanomachines son!" ... yeah ok maybe not. Yeah, that would've worked with a bit of tweaking. Oh no how terrifying..? It's just butterflies leaving some powder thing. And then Arturo loses a third of his health and gains poison. It's pretty damn scary, all right. Especially since poison in this game can take 10 HP in a single turn. Not sure what the exact limit is, but the pace at which poisoned units lose health is awful. On 7/8/2020 at 4:39 PM, The Roger The Paladin said: Hide contents The only catch with it, is it doesn't work so well in Golden Deer due to Claude/Ignatz and Leonie not getting Deadeye. But Ashe or Bernadetta can both do it with ease. Ignatz is better off as a mage, anyway. I know, it's not his most optimal path, but look at him! He looks like he was born to be a mage! He even has dorky glasses! How can that be an archer? He can't even see properly! Kefka intensifies. Turns out he was dancing mad because he had sand in his boots and couldn't get them off. To be honest, her second death was one of the worst written stories I've seen. But then again... it's not doing them any favors when they bring her back in a way that basically makes her guilty of genocide. Goodness... Sankuro's needless aggression to everyone is funnier than it should be just because it reminds me of the "I'll kill you" threats here. Shame he's kind of a scumbag. ...Should I be worried a scumbag reminds you of me? I didn't mean the face. Not that anyone could tell with all the hair on it. Well, you should try the face too. It's a fun face to make. No, I'm not insane, why? 12 seconds. That's... longer than I would've expected from you. Why does Marth have Squidward's nose? Because my artistic talent is, uh... subpar. Yeah. All I'd need to do is take the quote, put it with another quote from the TRS LP.... and it's done. Shame I'm too lazy. But you aren't spanish! You don't have paella to eat and bullfighting to watch! You've no excuses, none at all! It's just they're both morons with a warped/paranoid worldview that resulted in needless deaths. I know that could be applied to a lot of people/characters. But in this case I think it's justified. To be honest, I'd hesitate to compare them. Much as Volcens is a horrendous person, he hasn't murdered anyone with his own hands. Yet. Not to mention, he seems willing to listen to Roswick on occassion. It's just, well, Herman's quick to intercede. Plot twist being that I made up Shokkoth for the context of the comment... using the name of a Golem from an old Conan story because believable demon name. All because I wanted to play off the "sin" in the butterman comments. Remarkable how close he came to the truth. Oh wow. You are devious! "No water" I know what you mean, but the picture makes it funnier than it should be. I mean, I guess there technically is water in the map, but I don't think Axel would get much out of swimming into the ocean. Not to be confused with Vesteria Saga. Pffffft... That should've been Vester's portrait filename. Today on funny out of context quotes. Amazing the difference a qualifier or two make. Poor, poor Owen... As if his life wasn't shit enough as it is. Rub it in why don't you. I will. Heheheheh... I should hope not. It'd be weird him talking to himself in the third person. (Can I ever resist) I like how I made a simple comment sharing a small bit of trivia with you all, and everyone's first instinct is to rife on my wording. Adrenalin is a hell of a drug. Quite amazing, what it can do. The bane of LP'ing. Unexpected potentially fatal situations. Not fun. No, actually, it is fun, otherwise I wouldn't do it. But still, I can tell you my heart pounds hard when I'm playing Berwick for the LP. Maybe he heard tales of Axel... and fled assuming anyone checking houses with Sinon must be him? To be fair, this is the first time since chapter 3 that anyone other than Axel has checked a house. If I learn from your example I'll get even more undeserved praise than I already do. Brilliant. Follow my lead. I know what I'm doing. Believe me! Shocking. If only he hadn't ruined it afterwards... Nielsen's about to be blown away. Hah! Not to forget the power of the elements. Also, it obviously was surprising for him if you had the element of surprise. Or else you wouldn't have. He had the element of surprise and the element of the elements against him. He was doomed from the start. I know that feeling. Everyone else living on cliffhangers that are set in stone to you. To be honest, I do feel great satisfaction when people expect the worst from me, yet I know that quite the opposite actually happened. Chapter 5 intensifies 1 hour ago, BrightBow said: Ah crap. Oh goody, you're back! You also missed the announcement that warnings will be handed out to people who reply with long posts and don't put them in spoilers. If it's not too late, please keep in mind that you have to do that now. I missed the "Beard of Betrayal" sidequest. Or "Beardtrayal". I don't remember the exact title.Don't worry, I made sure that nobody missed the fact that Ward was with an Imperial squad that time. A bit late for that considering they already took the ground from underneath you all the way from Leia to the Lowlands. Not to mention Bornia. This whole conversation sounds all kinds of strange. Treating basic strategies like they are some sort of rare superpower.It's like Ace Attorney. Edgeworth's lawyer superpower: BASIC LOGIC And she has such a good strength growth too. Well, by the standards of this game at least.RNG-screwed Sylvis sounds like a cruel joke. But I'm used to those by now. The Crossbow guy can actually be provoked from below the hill. Not sure if he actually comes down there since I usually just Rossweisse him from 3 range. The archer doesn't seem to move at all. The rest I guess has the usual "stay on territory" behavior and won't cross the cliffs. Even though Ward has Climber and could do it just fine.I can confirm that he comes down. ...Wait, what? You can have the Rossweisse already? I've been waiting on it for ages! What happened, did I miss the material!? I'm on my 3rd run and I never even noticed there were throwing axes with build in crit in this game.Right? It's just fascinating, the little things in this game. Why not throw away the Imperial Axe? You can throw away personal possessions, you just can't trade or sell them....Aaahhh, yes. I missed being rightfully criticized for my every small blunder, and offering lame jokes as a poor attempt to reflect them, because I can never come up with a defense, given that you're almost always right. Owen is good, though. I'll die on this hill if I have to. Because of course there are enemies with Deathmatch and a Miracle Charm. Don't want players to think they found a clever exploit by giving a Miracle Charm to Volo.Kaga is always one step ahead when it comes to being a dickhead. Good luck with that. You can't Deathmatch someone who can't counter. So unless Sylvis switches to a Crossbow, you have to dish out medium sized beat downs like the rest.And, well, there's also the fact he couldn't reach her. Says the guy who bought the Zanbato with it's even worse accuracy and durability. Also 40 accuracy is the same as the Longspear that you love so much....Okay, I may've made a mistake or two. But when I kill a horse with it and save someone from getting lanced, you'll be eating those words! ...... ...don't count on it, though. Don't want you starving to death waiting for the word meal. The Scimitar is a crafting material for the Harperion. Pretty nifty sword. Hits twice with great power, accuracy and a ton of crit. Scimitars won't ever show up in the shop in Navaron. Okay, I fucked up! I get it! I also generally like buying the Saber here, since it's a weapon that's pretty much equal to the Longsword, and I find the supply of Longswords and Broadswords can easily run out. Oh, please... I made all the wrong choices, didn't I? Unsurprisingly, but... The accuracy might be trash, but he does have Supporter.Sheesh... Evil Derrick would have been in Christine's sidequest, so we are not going to see that one.Dang it, that's true! Oh, well. We did see Goebbels, at least. He was just Derrick with his head tilted to the side. And, y'know, called Goebbels. Now you know it's not actually Ward. Ward can't be injured.The fact that we beat him is proof enough that it couldn't be Ward. Famous last words.Bernard should've known better than to expect anything from Volcens. We do super meet him next chapter. Those crazy eyes are interesting, though. Maybe he is Webber's son? I really do have to wonder why Kaga was so fond of the "psychotic old fart" design. You don't think it's your place to speak on such issues? Weren't you the one who pushed his majesty to summon... I AM JUST A HUMBLE SERVANT OF HIS MAJESTY.Honestly though, I remember there being a moment that's almost exactly this. It's hilarious. It could be that Mordias' thought it was too late to accuse the empire of the murder. Revealing the true cause after years of civil war might cause the whole mess to start all over again, considering it meant admitting that the rebels were correct about Arless' innocence the whole time.That much is true... So instead, he murdered the Apostle, her husband, his whole cadre of knights, and indirectly himself by starting the war with Raze that eventually took his life. ...Mordias really was the worst, huh... Maybe should have asked Warrenheit about the limits of Volcens' stupidity or lack thereof.I just like how you reacted to this line twice. I am quite impressed by your sense of dramatic timing. Thank you, Lord Bernard. We have been waiting in front of the door for 20 minutes to get our entrance just right. Pffffff... The image of this is just hilarious. Any second now... Any second now, men... He's gonna drop the red flag any second now... ...but my home is still occupied by the empire... Being Sienna is suffering. You do realize we can't possible win this war if you remove every person who is more competent then you are? I love you, dear brother, but you must accept that this is a very low bar that a LOT of people pass. I am very secure in myself. These two together are berwicksaga.txt in its purest form. ...VERY secure in myself.Ahahahahahahah... Ahhh, I still despise that line. I swear, Sienna's biggest mistake in this game was not pushing him off the balcony when he was standing so close to the border. Yeah. That one is pretty strange considering how far away from Navaron the Sinnon Knights can operate within a mere month. Maybe Aethin mistook 6 weeks for 6 months or something.Could be. The 6 months thing always sounded a bit sketchy. Well, no matter. Perhaps Bernard just had a better horse than Reese. Performers? The kind of people who drug young girls and train them as dancers? What? No. We haven't been doing that for years. Turns out offering to pay people makes them want to work for you without any need for abduction, intimidation or torture. It's even cheaper then bribing tavern owners to drug their customers for you. Indeed. Because of that I'm still sitting on dozens of bottles that I have no idea what to do with. Bwahahahahahahahahah... Ahh, I'm glad they've learned, after all these years since TRS. I mean, that's literally why she is in the library right now.She better put that training to good use and start getting magic, then, if she doesn't want to die. It's a really nice hill for story events. Sure would be a shame if something were to happen to it.Heheheheheh... Ahhh... I guess that's why Aethin referred to Maris as female in the mission description.In the knit cap's description too, I just stealthily corrected it. Actually Thaddy takes priority for this one. So you can simply chose who gets the quest by hiring Thaddy before or after accepting it.Oh. Shows how much I've used Thaddy, hahah. The happiness needed for being recruited in chapter 8 is merely 1. You only need 10 happiness to recruit him earlier then that.I was wondering if I could recruit him before then by any chance. That's a nice line. Too bad you have to die.He's not the most forgettable dude, that much is true. Not to mention the archer with Battle Cry hiding in the dark.Yeah, I... I discovered that one the hard way. Love that smear during his attack. Looks fantastic in motion.Agreed. It's a great animation. With how much she is showing off, you'd think she would actually be good at using crossbows. Well-- Well, she is most certainly the best living Crossbow user of this party, at least.Why, you piece of...! Stop it! Let her rest already! Sending Sherpa all alone into an enemy fort while his avoid is reduced to 0 by his Greatsword.Yeah, uh... thanks for the reminder. Especially since his gear and skills are set up to waste your turns. Shieldfaire ensures he blocks virtually every hit. And the Iron Shield has B durability, so it takes a while to break through that. He's a nasty reminder that in the future you can't expect to beat these guys by just hitting them with physical attacks. And then he just got Percy'd in one turn. 2 minutes ago, Benice said: Am I the only one having issues with quoting in a spoiler? Yeah, it sucks. What I do when I reply to other LPs is I do everything normally without spoilers, then at the very end I copypaste the stuff into a spoiler. Far more convenient. Hide contents UGH, LET'S TRY SOMETHING ELSE. Now watch, and learn, here's the deal Huh, who knew that everyone in my army other than Reese and Ward had weakness? Ahahahah... Well, not weakness, but cripplings are more likely on player units. For... some reason. Kaga loves the player, is the reason. See?! I think I do, yes! That moment when you think I'm normal and then I mention a band named Barenaked Ladies. (They're the ones who sing the big bang theory theme song, by the way.) My guy, if that is your one call to weirdness, then I think I have you beat. I REFUSE! I WILL NOT STOP UNTIL FAYE HAS BEEN DEEMED AS NOT A TRAP! You bastard! Why must the "drop the links in a completely random fashion" trick work every time!? ...Now excuse me while I chill listening to that. Perceval.png The crit nonwithstanding. This guy is really annoying. I was still trying to take him down until turn 19. Of course, I wasn't able to escape in time. And then I brought him down in one turn. Turns out Perceval is good for something after all. The second time, I just Faye + Levin sword astra'd him. Toasted in one round. I wish I had Astra already. But I am not nearly as fond of her as you are. ...I just realized, while writing this line, that there isn't a "aren't / isn't" equivalent for "am". Come now, english language, what's so wrong with "amn't"? I REFUSE! Okay, then hope for the worst, then! I would do the same with you, but it's difficult for your thing to sink any lower. ...I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, seriously! Please forgive me...! Still misses everything: Spoiler The other day, we had freed Vester. It has taken him and his cronies three days to notice that the door is now open and Nielsen lies in a pool of his own blood. They have? I didn't expect Vanmilion to be so thoughtful... Actually, milord, their messenger ...Messenger? What? You're stuck in this fort! What, do they allow you to receive mail in here? Wow, they were more considerate than I thought... said they were the Knights of Sinon. The Knights of Sinon?! Who's commanding them? Lord Reese of Sinon, it seems. Oh? Margrave Bernstol's son, then? I'll have to thank him properly once this is all over. All units, prepare to escape! Head west out of town, and then we'll take the northern road to Narvia! And how do you plan to do that? You, as well as every one of them, are at half your health at best. You are also all unarmed. It's me that's going to ensure nobody dies, don't steal the credit from me, y'hear?! I'll kill you! Yes, Lord Vester! Ah! Under attack already! Hah! Yeah, as if. Oh wow, I caught a cool frame even among all of Marcel's cool frames. I know, weird that Sherlock Jeiganed a kill for Sylvis, but I really really want her to reach level 10 today. The sooner she's in our team forever, the better for us all. Excellent. Uhhh, Perceval one-rounds with the Dire Thunder! You can't be serious. You can't be fuckin' serious! Percevaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!! Nice! Excellent! Perfect! Now you only need 19 points to promote to get +1 to your stats! Wonderful! Totally worth missing for this! Ward dismounts to avoid horse damage and picks up the spare shield I had him grab from Clifford. Ohhhh, Jesus, that's bad... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA this guy's gotta die. Gotta keep this in mind, too. It could prove to be a troublesome surprise. Reese, go and support Ward! Did you know there are actually Thracia-styled supports in this game when the right characters are within 2 hexes of one another? Yeah! A whopping 4 hit for Ward. Other bonuses include... Arthur to Ruby, 1 hit. Yeah. Don't really matter much. There are a couple of cool ones, but that's it. Sigh... Perceval, I swear... His accuracy isn't even that bad! I don't understand how he can do this every time for three runs! All right... it's about time, I suppose. Gilgamesh moves last, so I can move Arthur later. I also double-checked to make sure he can't kill any of Vester's knights. I just need to get lucky... If he hits and doesn't injure, I'm pretty screwed. If we can get an injury with this first blow, he'll be left with 2 HP from lightning. With a x2 cripple rate, that's more or less a guaranteed capture. I just need this to work...! Yes! Awesome! It actually worked, I can't believe it! Hahah! You're the best, Owen. Oh, this dude moves. For all the good it did him. All right, time for Arthur to run the hell away from there. This guy is the most hurt out of Vester's units. Let's guard him. Oh. Gilgamesh completely ignored the two knights in his range and aimed for Sherpa. Sure, whatever rocks your boat, mate. Paaaaah... more poison. Thaddy continues to run towards the town. He'll be selling that treasure he got to purchase things at the shops. Marcel will help fight off this dude, and next turn he'll trigger the Overwatch. ...Okay, that... might've thrown a small wrench into my plan. Damnit, die already! See, Marcel? That's how it's done. Learn from your fellow blond. Ward continues to move forward. There is one last boss in the map, guarding the exit, and I'd rather fight him with Ward than anyone else. Hmmm... That might work, if I'm lucky. Of course not. That's something, at least. One perk Sherlock has that I don't think I've pointed out before is that his promotion is pretty painless to get. Beyond feeding him 11 levels, his bow threshold of 30 is really easy to reach. Half the town is ours. Jesus! Gaah! 9 HP...! Oh, shoot! Gilgamesh caught one of the knights as he fled! Pfhahah! Ahahah! Hwahahah! Good job, Gilga. Your last chance to accomplish something, and you failed miserably. Goodbye! You can't hear it, but there's an ear-piercing sound accompanying the spell. He's ours! Might as well let Owen have him. I don't really want anyone else to retreat again. As Thaddy runs to catch up, Marcel equips one of his good shields and braces for impact. Good lucky getting through that, stinky archer! Oi, that's not the right amount of bolts! Hah! He didn't even flinch! And he got a point on top of that. Amazing. And now, for the counter-attack! Oki-dokie, let's try this again. Thank you. Thank you for wasting 4 uses of Dire Thunder on this one asshole, but... Sigh, I'll take it for what it's worth. Can I at least get a good level? Well. Time to die. Uhh, almost a level! Oh, dear. Another one. Not nearly as dangerous, but that could be trouble nonetheless. Great, thanks. It was about time. At this point I remembered that reinforcements will appear from behind. The knights can take a hit or two, but best be safe than sorry. Ward is going to cover the rear. Being able to enemy phase is another of the Gram's perks, although it's better suited for a powerful offense. And that'll be another kill for Sylvis. Getting there... Gwaaaah...! Berwick poison! Jesus, he's in legitimate danger of dying! We'll deal with that in a moment. For now, Reese advances. If you're wondering why him instead of Marcel, it's because this boss has a magical weapon. In retrospect, that... Didn't really make a difference at all, but eh. There he is! Qadi! Yet another weapon boss. Hoo... oof! 9 damage...! Well, at least he's closer to us now. We had better focus on him now. Yes. Formidable work, Sherlie. That's exactly what I wanted to happen. Moving. While he's there, Sherpa grabs Thaddy's vulnerary and chugs it. Should be enough to tank the poison until it wears off. We got a Gilgamesh. Man, imagine if this game had Fates-styled capture. We could play as Gilgamesh! No joke, that'd actually be legitimately cool. Dark magic in this game is awesome. Starting with darkmend. It's about as powerful as physic, but it has 5 hexes of range instead of 3. It's great. A shame that dark magic is only good for Erzheimer. Might as well toss a 2 use heal. Now... Qadi is a knight, so he can't traverse cliffs well. That's handy. Arthur hurries into the church to heal up. Nice. Sherpa will probably follow suit. You've done enough. Let Marcel handle this. Aaaand more healing. Gwaaah! Damn, he's good! So many vulneraries down the drain... These don't come cheap, you know! Percy. Seriously. I need you to hit this. You miss and we're kinda screwed. Actually, not really, I mean, he's just one guy, but... Please. Ah, flashbang! Good! Surprisingly enough! Using one-two, Sherlock fires two arrows at Qadi, dealing 2 damage. Yeah. This guy. Sylvis time. If she can get through the shield, it's over. If not, it'll be over next turn. Never mind! Turns out we're fucked, because she missed and now we can't finish him reliably before he moves. The knights have reached the town. Well, except for that one that's lagging behind. Get a move on, man! We don't have all night! If nothing else, might as well try to cover Sylvis with Arthur. But then there's Perceval... Dang it, reinforcements from the south! It can't be helped. Rapid crossbow, it's showtime! Shoot! Phew... She managed to hit him with the exact amount of damage she needed! What a story, Mark! What? For real? 90 EXP? Well, that's just not how it's going to go. Everyone is hidden! I'm going to send Arthur to retrieve the costume. Or, y'know, I'm gonna send him to get speared. He succeeded. I am proud of you, Arturo. Reese and Sherlock, with nothing better to do, advance cautiously. Thaddy has made it to the shops! Let's inspect them all first and choose second. Materials, a bag, good weapons, a statbooster... Those are all cool things, but I only have so much budget For the time being, let's buy the materials, because you can never go wrong with materials. Now, Percev-- Ohhh, goddamnit! I hate it when enemies randomly have 1 magic! Go run, then. Horseman can only reach Marcel or Arthur, so it's a matter of picking his poison. Holy shit, dude, how did you manage to lag behind so much? They're a good two turns ahead of you! How'd you do it? You were the one closest to the gate at the start! Also, the camera focused on the fog for a moment after ending the turn. Thus, enemies have appeared around here. Warm will give them a ward welcome. I mean... Well, you know what I mean. For now, Sherpa's healed up a bit. I think it'll be up to Sylvis to get this kill. There'll be more reinforcements, but I'd rather have her safely at level 10 without having to risk getting her captured. Next turn will be it. The knights might move in front of him, but with Overwatch gone, he'll have to pick between shooting one of them or setting up another Overwatch. Either way, it's only one bolt they're gonna eat, and I checked - they all survive the damage. I love Arthur's sword swings. Look at that, he looks like he broke his spine in three different spots just to slash that guy open. Spine or no, he made it. ...You're here for the theater troupe? Ah, you must be here about the costume that they left! I was wondering when they were going to come and get it. Here you go! Here we go, sidequest nº 2 is done. Okay, so it's 22 HP plus some defense against 22 attack. Easily survived. By the way, there's one example of the very in-depth ingame tutorials that I haven't been showing. The game does a good job explaining itself... If you actually give it the chance to. Yeah, thought so. Even if he's crippled, he's next to the escape point, so he's good to go. Thaddy purchased an apollyon and iron arrows with increased accuracy. Everything else was good too, but this bow is great, and Sylvis's own copy is already yellow. Getting a bit crowded there. Imagine living in one of those homes. Just waking up in the middle of the night to the sound of heavy armor and screams, coming down to see what's going on and finding some guy with a crossbow standing in your living room firing arrows at knights through the window. At least I'm assuming that's what's supposed to be happening here. Really doubt that guy's literally standing on the house. Or, you know, that the units are the same size as the houses. Though the idea of Sylvis being as big as a house is certainly-- Okay, I think that's enough commentary on this one image. There, see? I think I've a most fabulous idea. First step, Ward rekts him. And now, he retreats just barely out of sight onto this chokepoint for cavs. He's definitely going to have to cross that hex if he wants to advance, and then... Hehehehe... There, this guy's down. Get something good again? Yes! More power, more! As if you weren't godly enough already! Ahahah! He fell right into my trap, and you know the rest. Ahh, the wonders of Berwick Saga fog. You actually get to troll the enemy just like they would! ...You... You...! Very well, RNGoddess! You win this round. But this isn't over! ...Oh, what? Seriously?! Here, have this piece of crap. Thanks. This has Ruby's name all over it. Before I forget, let's do sidequest nº 3. Hm...? It doesn't look like anyone's been here for weeks... What's this on the table...? A shame he can't just fire the arrowheads. But nah, we have to get them to Bluck first. Eyy, first knight is out! You! I must erase you so as to quash the memory of that embarrassment! Sigh... About time I missed a pop-up, no? Owen could probably catch up to the team, but by then it'll be turn 20, and with all those enemies approaching, I think... Yeah, screw it. He's leaving already. His job is mostly done, anyhow. One more and we'll begin to profit in tactics points. I do need to get rid of you-- uhhh, a free horse! Gimme gimme gimme! Sorry, pal. But you're in the way, and you have a free horse! That's one grand I'll be saving! First tactics point is got! More enemies... Oh, goddamnit, Marcel! Hah! At least he couldn't do anything with his second chance at life. For some reason, instead of hiding back in the fog, he just... sort of walked his horse into the forest. Fine by me, just means I get to... Take it for myself! Good, good. That'll do in a pinch. And now... well, there's not much to do but wait for the final knight to escape, and then do it ourselves. That's it. Ah, an enemy. He goes boom. I'd like to give Marcel another level today. Hmm... He's a bit far from 100, but... Maybe. Ward advances to reveal another guy. He's much like the last heavy knight with Counter. Ward has pilums, though, so no need to eat a counter. Hah! He even walked himself to us, even though he couldn't see! How brave... And how foolish! Might as well try a capture. That's some nice gear he's got. Nope. Why do I always forget about these things... Gah! That's good, at least. He's gotten a fair big of progress with his levels today. He just needs to reach that happiness threshold to be permanently recruited, and then we can work on his promotion. Yes, that's the order in which it's going to happen. I think I've mentioned it before, but Arthur and Ruby both need to level up once after being permanently recruited before they have a chance to promote. Great. One more kill will be it. Yeah, yeah, calm down, will you, Reese? I know what I'm doing. I, I think. Oh boy, another enemy! Just what I needed! Wait, what does he have...? Pilums, eh? Well, that's just awfully convenient, isn't it? ...okay, so I made two different blunders here. First, I meant to Guard Thaddy so he could remain exposed after stealing the unequipped pack of pilums. However, I completely forgot that Guard stops working when the receiver does any action other than wait, so this pre-emptive guarding would've been useless. Of course, none of this mattered because I missclicked and Guarded Perceval instead. Sigh... Well, fuck it. Let's just do this. Recklessly endanger Thaddy's life in a FoW map for a pack of fucking pilums. Sherlock kneels to aim his first Double-Shot when he's dismounted. As with most cool things, I was too slow to catch it. Anyway, there we go. Marcel pointed his sword slightly towards the sky and that killed the enemy. Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffhwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah... Yes! Speed on my knights, yes! That's exactly what I want for them! Ahahahah... Hoo... Well, that's level 9, at any rate. 6 more, and he's good to go. Literally, as he'll get more movement to, y'know, go. Well, that was a victory. Oh boy. A miniboss two turns from the end. Thanks, Berwick Saga. Marcel has to haul ass to the escape point right now. If he doesn't, he's getting captured. This guy popped out of the fog and ran into Ward. More!? More fuckin' WpSkill!? What sort of joke is this?! A twisted one?! You don't need these! I mean, fine by me, but this is so stupid! While Thaddy runs toward the escape point, Arthur Desperates the dude. Dang it! Oh wow, another level? Goodness, I really have been using Arthur a ton today, haven't I? Consider this compensation for all the verbal abuse, friend. ...Ergh... Do you want more verbal abuse, Arturo? Is that it? I mean, not judging, it's just, uh... This isn't really the best way to go about it? You could just... ask? Neat. Ah! Martin! That's a neat shield. Increases defense against wind magic. I want it. If you could not harm it too much, Reese, it'd be wonderful. Handle what? You cannot counterattack with that thing! Fss. FSSSSSSSSSS! FSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! DISAPPOINTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED! Well, guess that's where the next repairstone's going. Urrrgggh... Ah, Ward! Okay, not too bad. Well, fuck me... I don't think I'll be able to kill him now. First off, Marcel has to leave, or else. Here's the idea: I'll... ...To be honest, I don't know what I was thinking. At this point it was obvious that I wasn't going to kill Martin. And I mean, at this point he's tanked so many hits that the shield's probably not looking so good anymore. Well, everyone who can withdraw has. The next turn, everyone else withdrew. I mean, I could probably kill Martin right now, but then Arthur will be captured. The shield is at yellow durability and it's not even an Erzheimer item or anything... Yeah, fuck it. This is a waste, but at least I had the foresight to make sure Arthur would have a way out. And it's over! Wow... That went really well! I botched up the end a bit, but at least we didn't waste anything more than an escapestone. And other than that, everything went perfectly! Amazing! Congratulations, me! Next time, we speak with Vester and find out what kind of person he is when he's not in prison. Look forward to it, expect great things, and above all, farewell! Death count: Christine Esteban Czene Faye x 1 * Unavailable Capture count: 1 (Daoud) Reset count: 1 (Ward: 1) Current perfect streak: 1 map Best perfect streak: 6 maps BONUS: Dialogues and stuff. Green unit death quotes. Gilgamesh and Martin's death quotes. Vester and Reese have a conversation. It is triggered by waiting next to Vester, there's no talk command. Don't ask me why. Hm? You're Lord Reese? But you're so young... How old are you? Lord Vester, is this really the time to be talking about this? We must work together and flee this place as quickly as possible! Ah, forgive me, you're quite right. We'll talk later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punished Dayni Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Today is a day of dust. Literal dust. In my mouth. Oof. Spoiler 52 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Heck, the optimal thing is to have two consoles, one for modding and one for legit purposes. So inconvenient... True fact: That's my 3DS situation. 52 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Gambits were also bad, and they had the added perk that battalions are extremely wonky visually. Bad? There's still a bug in the game where it straight up crashes! Nearly a year later! I'm okay about hearing about more DLC just so that they'd also bother to fix that crap. 53 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Hey, don't beat yourself up over it. I'd be lying if I said I don't understand, I mean, I feel the exact same way about Three Houses. I see everyone worshipping the ground that game walks on, and all I can think of is how much I'd like to love it so much, but I can't because of the myriad flaws it has. In this case, I'm the worshipper that drives others up a wall! When was I particularly worshipping though? That aside, I failed to apologise for two to three parts worth of bitching. So sorry for that. 54 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: If you meant to say if 3H has clever FoW like this game, the answer is nope. It's as bad as everywhere else in the FE series. And I mean, the enemy following the same rules as the player sounds like a start. That shouldn't be so difficult. It's a wonder they haven't ripped it off BWS in the 15 years this game has existed for. I mean, IS did make AW: Days of Ruin, so they should at least be able to rip off themselves? Also, D'oh on the typo in the previous line I chose not to quote.. 56 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Now that I've finally found the source, I can't understand why you keep giving Marcel his lines. They can't scratch Marcel most of the time, much less cut off one of his limbs. Because he matches the personality. King Arthur might just be too OP anyways, maybe everyone else would have been like twigs on BK's armour. 56 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Agreed. It's like they went out of their way to find the most boring, bland, unimportant, useless miniboss just so they could give him the best name in the entire game. As someone who's played FF5 I am particularly disappointed. 57 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Not really, we've seen it before. For example, the bandits from that one map where we were recapturing Imperial prisoners were yellow. The Imperials from Thaddy's first map were yellow. Slipped my mind. (Support with Sothis went down.) 58 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Narcus, maybe? Holy crap Narcus is actually generic enough that I completely forgot. I forgot he did that too. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Actually, milord, their messenger ...Messenger? What? You're stuck in this fort! What, do they allow you to receive mail in here? Wow, they were more considerate than I thought... said they were the Knights of Sinon. I mean, Reese could have sent them a messenger because he was too busy to talk right now. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Hah! Yeah, as if. Oh wow, I caught a cool frame even among all of Marcel's cool frames. I want to imagine him sliding away there. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Reese, go and support Ward! Did you know there are actually Thracia-styled supports in this game when the right characters are within 2 hexes of one another? Yeah! A whopping 4 hit for Ward. Other bonuses include... Arthur to Ruby, 1 hit. Yeah. Don't really matter much. There are a couple of cool ones, but that's it. Press F for in game supports. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yes! Awesome! It actually worked, I can't believe it! Hahah! You're the best, Owen. I guess his journey comes to a chilling end? 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: You can't hear it, but there's an ear-piercing sound accompanying the spell. I'm trying to think which FE spell has this look. Thoron's right in the modern games, but I'm not so sure about early on. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Hah! He didn't even flinch! And he got a point on top of that. Amazing. I move for no man. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yet another weapon boss. That description of these kinds of bosses is more interesting than this guy. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: We got a Gilgamesh. Man, imagine if this game had Fates-styled capture. We could play as Gilgamesh! No joke, that'd actually be legitimately cool. Dark magic in this game is awesome. Starting with darkmend. It's about as powerful as physic, but it has 5 hexes of range instead of 3. It's great. A shame that dark magic is only good for Erzheimer. So Owen will never use it? Damm shame. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: "I'm about to fall ooooooof!" *lands head first. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yes! More power, more! As if you weren't godly enough already! You at this moment. (Trying to find a better clip dredged up so much irrelevant shit I stopped trying. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...okay, so I made two different blunders here. First, I meant to Guard Thaddy so he could remain exposed after stealing the unequipped pack of pilums. However, I completely forgot that Guard stops working when the receiver does any action other than wait, so this pre-emptive guarding would've been useless. Of course, none of this mattered because I missclicked and Guarded Perceval instead. Sigh... Well, fuck it. Let's just do this. Recklessly endanger Thaddy's life in a FoW map for a pack of fucking pilums. Risking low HP and Def units. As is tradition. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffhwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah... Yes! Speed on my knights, yes! That's exactly what I want for them! Ahahahah... Hoo... Well, that's level 9, at any rate. 6 more, and he's good to go. Literally, as he'll get more movement to, y'know, go. Just a flesh wound. I'm telling you, he's gotta go fast. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh boy. A miniboss two turns from the end. Thanks, Berwick Saga. And his name's Martin. In this fantasy setting, his name's Martin. I don't know what to say. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: DISAPPOINTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED! What colour was it? 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yeah, fuck it. This is a waste, but at least I had the foresight to make sure Arthur would have a way out. And it's over! Wow... That went really well! I botched up the end a bit, but at least we didn't waste anything more than an escapestone. And other than that, everything went perfectly! Amazing! Congratulations, me! Not his name, but with having the name Arthur and the other stuff that's come up, this works too well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanes Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Spoiler 47 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Come to Spain. Big chunk of land at the end of Europe, you can't miss it. Yes Ruben I know my geography. Going off of memory, to the east you have France but along the border Andorra is encircled between these two, going northeast from France you find Belgium and continuing there's the Netherlands. Go south east of the Netherlands to get to Germany and then between Germany and France there's Luxembourg. However as Luxembourg is completely surrounded by France and Germany, Switzerland is also connected to both but it is not only rapped between them, it also is between Italy to the south and Austria to the west. Monaco is also surrounded by France but not Landlocked. To not go on for longer, Vatican City and St. Marino are landlocked and fully inside of Italy. This would be more impressive if not for the fact I enjoy History and that makes Geography fall into place. Plus it's Europe, ask me about Africa and it's harder. 54 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: This is the FE fandom. You cannot say the word "trap" in this place without somebody following suit with "in America!" Trap can also be followed by someone calling you gay for liking them. 55 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Why do you make me out to be a stuck-up jerk every time? I just want this thing to catch on, since you did say once I shouldn't boss you around.Inb4 Ruben... I I have got nothing 56 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Too late, I just got a culture victory. Now you can't nuke me, I have the power of tourism. That's dumb. Conquer through war instead puss SO NUKE! NUKE EVERYTHING! 59 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: That's a bit wonky. Or IDK how it happens, specially since this time my notifications showed me both. I guess it was just a weird product of that day, or that person commented and then you posted something pretty soon after. Idk. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Uh... Yes. I can totally see this. Volcens would definitely react like that. I'm the one teleporting away lol, not Volcens. Wait why did we never make this connection? Volcens, is just a... Volcel! Well not really but also yes. Incels are involuntary celebates, so they want to not be virgins but they are virgins and that pisses them off. Volcels are virgins voluntarily but usually also do it because they find women yucky or disguting/inferior to spend time on. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: I mean, all that armor has to be compensating for something. Yeah lol. Bulge-armor in history is sorta common, Henry the VIII (in any portrait you search of him) has like some metal thing down there. Apparently it's some sort of decoration so he didn't just use it because he was horny but well, I wouldn't be surprised if it's use was to hide whenever the king was thirsty. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yeah... We're kinda fucked now. Bernstol's still there, tho, so that's great! Bernstol is Reese's father, if you don't know. People like calling him Bernstool for some reason. Epic. I mean this is a videogame, we are supposed to win right? so everythign will be fine. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: No man, just boys being boys. Never mind the fact that they can't even tell anyone because then nobody does anything and the bullies beat the crap out of them. Absolutely wonderful. "You should have asked the professors for help before taking action yourself" No it never works like that. Professors are human and most of them are clueless on how to handle any of it. But whatever, this is dumb and I never will understand why people like to be bullies. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: You can't really compare Sylvis to Rebecca. Sylvis could have Rebecca's base stats and she'd still be 10 times better simply because of all the other stuff she can do. And I'm not. That's why I said "Imagine having a waifu with good stats". Sylvis has higher stats and more usability. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yes, but there's a reason I've considered multiple times changing the thread title to "Ruben's Grandpa Reflexes" So you're telling me the pop-up appears for like a full second and you just stare at the screen before deciding "oh right the screenshot!" 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: And then Arturo loses a third of his health and gains poison. It's pretty damn scary, all right. Especially since poison in this game can take 10 HP in a single turn. Not sure what the exact limit is, but the pace at which poisoned units lose health is awful. Is the 1/3 of health lost a scripted thing? 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Am I the only one having issues with quoting in a spoiler? Yeah, it sucks. What I do when I reply to other LPs is I do everything normally without spoilers, then at the very end I copypaste the stuff into a spoiler. Far more convenient. Unbolded is Benice, Bolded is St. Rubenio. I sometimes do have trouble with that but it's happened to me always before. Like sometimes selecting things and the quote button doesn't appear. I just copy paste them into a quote box anyways though. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: You can't hear it, but there's an ear-piercing sound accompanying the spell. Like other spell animations, this looks pretty awesome. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: A shame that dark magic is only good for Erzheimer. It's also good for getting... Alzheimers! Well atleast in GBA FE, and I know this is a shit joke my great grandma has Alzheimers Quote Using one-two, Sherlock fires two arrows at Qadi, dealing 2 damage. Yeah. This guy. So, blocking with shield doesn't nullify damage it just adds defense? I always thought the number just displayed there to show you how much he gained, not the damage taken with or without blocking. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: The knights have reached the town. Well, except for that one that's lagging behind. Get a move on, man! We don't have all night! Well you do have the entire night, but not once the sun rises... that's what I remember atleast but 24 turns is 12 hours so, actually you have a little bit after the sun rises if this battle starts at 12 AM. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Though the idea of Sylvis being as big as a house is certainly-- ... Well to each their own, if you like fat then- nah I'm joking, I know what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Roger The Paladin Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Spoiler 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Part 42 - Slowpoke knight. No relation to slow cav? 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Turns out he was dancing mad because he had sand in his boots and couldn't get them off. Given we meet Kefka in a seen where he's got sand in his boots... and he's nuts all game. Checks out. Everyone thought the process they put him through made him crazy. The sand made him crazy. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...Should I be worried a scumbag reminds you of me? I mean, he constantly says "I'll kill you" and his ending involves him shooting Genjuro (the biggest edgelord in the franchise) in the back and leaving him with the scar that he'd carry until his death later in the series. If he didn't work for a warlord as his enforcer and attempt to sell women into slavery to get money to pay for his hired mercenaries, then he'd just be a nice comedy character. Hell actually, if he didn't attempt to sell women into slavery, as to me that's a lot more evil than being on the wrong army. I mean, you'd not do that... well if Kaga wasn't making you. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Well, you should try the face too. It's a fun face to make. No, I'm not insane, why? At the very least, I can repost it in other threads with utterly wicked things. Like Wraith's punishment in the crime and punishment thread. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: That's... longer than I would've expected from you. It's also untrue. But it's funnier than "I didn't". 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Because my artistic talent is, uh... subpar. If you go by that episode of Spongebob with Squidward's art class, Squidward would disagree. Mind the art critic wouldn't. Critics right? 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: But you aren't spanish! You don't have paella to eat and bullfighting to watch! You've no excuses, none at all! I'd come up with a stereotypical excuse based on my country, but then I'd have to reveal it. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh wow. You are devious! The funny thing being, that particular Conan story was an adaption of Gardner Fox's Novel Kothar the Barbarian (a pastiche of the Conan series from the days when it was not being produced due to Robert E. Howard's suicide and the fact that L. Sprague De Camp was yet to get permission from his estate to revive it) into comic form... except with Conan for real this time (Fox was an old friend of the writer of the Conan comic). Gardner's notable for a few things. For one he invented the Flash, and wrote the first version of Batman's origin. But what's funny is that Gardner was a big H.P. Lovecraft fan, and named the Golem in the story Shokkoth, a slight change from Shoggoth... a demon from H.P. Lovecraft's works. So the big part of the gag is I've just taken an ancient joke and helped it finally reach full circle in a second aspect, after it had already in the first in the 1970s. Why do I know all this? Roy Thomas, the writer of the Conan comic at the time has some rather extensive notes on his run that were published when they were reprinted in the early 2000s. Shokkoth's appearance happened to be the first Conan tale I read, over a decade ago in said reprints. As it goes my father had the originals... but I ended up collecting the reprints because I liked the format, and the notes were rather entertaining. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: To be honest, I'd hesitate to compare them. Much as Volcens is a horrendous person, he hasn't murdered anyone with his own hands. Yet. Not to mention, he seems willing to listen to Roswick on occassion. It's just, well, Herman's quick to intercede. I find it amazing I found a line to cross which got you to defend Volcens. But you're right. Volcens isn't quite that bad. I'd be better comparing him to Caligula... actually no I wouldn't. He's not that bad either. DAMN IT REAL WORLD. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I mean, I guess there technically is water in the map, but I don't think Axel would get much out of swimming into the ocean. Hence why I knew what you meant. There was no water of any tactical value. Which is as good as no water. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I like how I made a simple comment sharing a small bit of trivia with you all, and everyone's first instinct is to rife on my wording. When you say that I feel like a real scumbag. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: To be fair, this is the first time since chapter 3 that anyone other than Axel has checked a house. See what I mean? They were wise to flee. If it were Axel they'd have been dead. 14 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: To be honest, I do feel great satisfaction when people expect the worst from me, yet I know that quite the opposite actually happened. I wish I could say that I knew that feeling, but my cliffhangers have been decided by the RNG. Can I really take credit for anything the RNG does? 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: And how do you plan to do that? You, as well as every one of them, are at half your health at best. You are also all unarmed. It's me that's going to ensure nobody dies, don't steal the credit from me, y'hear?! I'll kill you! See? That could literally be a Sankuro quote. Now you just need to shoot Volo in the back in your ending sequence and we're set. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: That's something, at least. One perk Sherlock has that I don't think I've pointed out before is that his promotion is pretty painless to get. Beyond feeding him 11 levels, his bow threshold of 30 is really easy to reach. Did Kaga spend his time on Tear Ring and Berwick apologizing to archers by doing things like this? I mean Sylvis alone. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: You can't hear it, but there's an ear-piercing sound accompanying the spell. The epic of Gilgamesh ends here. He just got Ow(e)ned. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: We got a Gilgamesh. Man, imagine if this game had Fates-styled capture. We could play as Gilgamesh! No joke, that'd actually be legitimately cool. Dark magic in this game is awesome. Starting with darkmend. It's about as powerful as physic, but it has 5 hexes of range instead of 3. It's great. A shame that dark magic is only good for Erzheimer. Fates style capture is unironically the best thing about Fates. Being able to recruit and use so many enemy units? Hilarious. Also great for Iron Man runs (as long as you don't lose Orochi/Niles) because replaceable generics. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Holy shit, dude, how did you manage to lag behind so much? They're a good two turns ahead of you! How'd you do it? You were the one closest to the gate at the start! Doesn't he know what happens to slow units? 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Warm will give them a ward welcome. I mean... Well, you know what I mean. I think I got the General idea. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Getting a bit crowded there. Imagine living in one of those homes. Just waking up in the middle of the night to the sound of heavy armor and screams, coming down to see what's going on and finding some guy with a crossbow standing in your living room firing arrows at knights through the window. At least I'm assuming that's what's supposed to be happening here. Really doubt that guy's literally standing on the house. Personally, I figure lying on the roof of a house between shots of a bow or crossbow would be good cover (if the roof was flat enough). Obviously you'd have to stand up to shoot, because you can't aim downwards through the roof. Or if there's a chimney you could use that as cover. Either way it takes you out of range of most physical attacks and makes it somewhat harder to hit you from the ground. Only problem is you'd have a damn hard time doing that if you didn't in advance, so I figure it's not what's going on here. 15 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: And it's over! Wow... That went really well! I botched up the end a bit, but at least we didn't waste anything more than an escapestone. And other than that, everything went perfectly! Amazing! Congratulations, me! Well... I half expected Daoud 2.0 at the end... but guess not. Though it's Gram shame that sword broke. 13 hours ago, This boi uses Nino said: Trap can also be followed by someone calling you gay for liking them. Or a reference to Merlinus.

BrightBow Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) Spoiler On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: ...Wait, what? You can have the Rossweisse already? I've been waiting on it for ages! What happened, did I miss the material!? I'm sure you noted in the past that you can make the Apeiron, and both weapons share Yew Wood and Ariadne Thread as a requirement. The 3rd material would be the Sapphire. You should have gotten one from the Mithril sidequest and another should be in the Material Shop. On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: I just like how you reacted to this line twice. Yeah. I thought I deleted that earlier one at some point. On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Yet another weapon boss. I wonder if Vestaria Saga was referencing this guy specifically when one of the villagers would tell you of a guy who recently ran into the dessert yelling "The wrath of Zephir's blade!" and probably died there because he seemed to be all bluster. The Zephir Sword is that game's electric magic sword, btw. Same as the one this guy has. Anyway, Qadi here also has the hidden Weakness skill, so he can be fairly easily captured. So he is most certainly not meant to be as intimidating as he tries to make himself out to be. On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: A shame that dark magic is only good for Erzheimer. Hey, Owen can use it after turn 20. Well, he can use Dark Heal and Nosferatu at least. On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: A shame he can't just fire the arrowheads. But nah, we have to get them to Bluck first. I mean, they are specifically just arrowheads. Not actual arrows. On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: That's a neat shield. Increases defense against wind magic. I want it. But those Raze priests only ever use dark magic. On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Well, guess that's where the next repairstone's going. Urrrgggh... Woah! Did this thing break on green durability? That sucks. On 7/10/2020 at 11:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Hm? You're Lord Reese? But you're so young... How old are you? And how come you are blond in your portrait but have grey hair on your map sprites while I have brown hair in my portrait but blond hair on my map sprites?

Golb89 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) [Addendum of the addendum] (This one is short at least) Spoiler *Insert Ruben's quote about Enid using magic swords here* That might be true in FE, and only when attacking at range, but in BWS magic weapons just do additional magic damage on top of the standard phisical one (kinda like enchanted weapons in "Oblivion") On 6/30/2020 at 10:36 PM, Saint Rubenio said: On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: (Once again, this would have been more appropriate for a situation in which you actually botched the food choices, but eh) On 7/5/2020 at 12:23 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Not really.

BrightBow Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) I keep forgetting to bring this up... I tested out what happens if you capture Minas but don't kill Theodore. There is an additional scene after the map where Ward explains to Reese that they were pursued by a lone, persistent knight. Ward took it upon himself to put that knight six feet under. And while he was at it, he also took that strange box with him that the knight was clutching close to him. So yeah, either way Reese ends up with the Decorative Box, so the way Theodore is dealt with probably has no effect on how this event plays out. Ward can be quite the busy bee after this map, between saving Esteban and killing Theodore. Guy deserves a raise.

In my mouth. Oof. F Hide contents True fact: That's my 3DS situation. Well, it shouldn't have to be. Bad? There's still a bug in the game where it straight up crashes! Nearly a year later! Oh, I didn't know that! Thanks! Now I hate it just a smidgen more. I'm okay about hearing about more DLC just so that they'd also bother to fix that crap. Assuming they do. They might just add more fanservice outfits and call it a day. When was I particularly worshipping though? Not you in particular. I did say "everyone", no? That aside, I failed to apologise for two to three parts worth of bitching. So sorry for that. Bah, don't worry about it. It's what most of my updates consist of, anyway. I mean, IS did make AW: Days of Ruin, so they should at least be able to rip off themselves? Oh, right. I'd almost forgotten. They learned, and then they unlearned the lesson. Also, D'oh on the typo in the previous line I chose not to quote.. It was a hilarious typo, don't worry. I don't hold it against you, it gave me a good laugh. Because he matches the personality. I suppose so... King Arthur might just be too OP anyways, maybe everyone else would have been like twigs on BK's armour. But Arthur misses everything! He can't be that OP! As someone who's played FF5 I am particularly disappointed. I haven't, but I have played Civilization. Slipped my mind. (Support with Sothis went down.) Good. She's useless anyway. Disappears one third into the game and only comes back for two completely stupid scenes that serve no purpose. I mean, why couldn't Byleth just... Wake up from his coma? It'd be contrived, but a bit less so than "dragon loli who died comes back to wake Byleth conveniently in time for the worst chapter in FE history" Holy crap Narcus is actually generic enough that I completely forgot. I forgot he did that too. Don't worry. Narcus's biggest call to fame is giving Eugen some of his best scenes. And even then, Holmes and Arkis of all people beat him at that. I mean, Reese could have sent them a messenger because he was too busy to talk right now. But... they're in jail! When did they get mail!? Unless they mean the guy who broke the cell door down. That... makes a bit more sense, I guess. I want to imagine him sliding away there. That does look like the perfect thing to happen. Press F for in game supports. F Again. I guess his journey comes to a chilling end? Ahahahahahahah... I'm trying to think which FE spell has this look. Thoron's right in the modern games, but I'm not so sure about early on. FE5 thoron is similar. Not nearly as fast, but it's... close enough. I move for no man. Sure you don't. Or woman, as we'll soon discover. That description of these kinds of bosses is more interesting than this guy. Hahah, I'll take that as a compliment. So Owen will never use it? Damm shame. Well, I didn't say that. I guess you'll just have to stay tuned and find out? "I'm about to fall ooooooof!" *lands head first. Honestly, if that happened Arthur would be the best unit in the game. You at this moment. Yes. That is me, indeed. (Trying to find a better clip dredged up so much irrelevant shit I stopped trying. Hey, it was a good clip. It looped for no reason, but it was good. Risking low HP and Def units. As is tradition. Sorry... Just a flesh wound. That's all they are until he dies. Or, well, until he's crippled, but surely that won't ever happen to me. I'm too lucky. I'm telling you, he's gotta go fast. 6 more levels... And his name's Martin. In this fantasy setting, his name's Martin. I don't know what to say. To be honest, I don't think it's that bad. Heck, this is the same game that has a Jonathan! How can anything beat fucking Jonathan? That. That is the face I made when it happened. What colour was it? Yellow, thankfully. It wasn't quite as bad as a green break. Still pretty damn atrocious, but... Could've been green. Could've been worse. Not his name, but with having the name Arthur and the other stuff that's come up, this works too well. Ahahahah... Yeah, yeah it does. On 7/11/2020 at 1:18 AM, This boi uses Nino said: Hide contents Yes Ruben I know my geography. Going off of memory, to the east you have France but along the border Andorra is encircled between these two, going northeast from France you find Belgium and continuing there's the Netherlands. Go south east of the Netherlands to get to Germany and then between Germany and France there's Luxembourg. However as Luxembourg is completely surrounded by France and Germany, Switzerland is also connected to both but it is not only rapped between them, it also is between Italy to the south and Austria to the west. Monaco is also surrounded by France but not Landlocked. To not go on for longer, Vatican City and St. Marino are landlocked and fully inside of Italy. Impressive. This would be more impressive if not for the fact I enjoy History and that makes Geography fall into place. Plus it's Europe, ask me about Africa and it's harder. Well, it's pretty good nonetheless. You probably know more geography than I do. I can defend myself when it comes to Europe, but ask me the American states and I'm just completely lost. I know California's to the west coast and New York and Washington are probably to the east? I think? Maybe? Also, Texas is in the south. But that's about it. Trap can also be followed by someone calling you gay for liking them. That's more of a generic thing, though. I was talking about things in the FE community. I just want this thing to catch on, since you did say once I shouldn't boss you around. Well, you failed.Inb4 Ruben... I I have got nothing Yes, yes you failed. Repent at once. That's dumb. Conquer through war instead puss SO NUKE! NUKE EVERYTHING! That's what my friend says as well. But making an army is such a hassle... Or IDK how it happens, specially since this time my notifications showed me both. I guess it was just a weird product of that day, or that person commented and then you posted something pretty soon after. Idk. Notifications have always been a bit of a mystery in this site. I'm the one teleporting away lol, not Volcens. Well, and? I never said anything about the teleporting! Wait why did we never make this connection? Volcens, is just a... Volcel! Well not really but also yes. Incels are involuntary celebates, so they want to not be virgins but they are virgins and that pisses them off. Volcels are virgins voluntarily but usually also do it because they find women yucky or disguting/inferior to spend time on. You know, the fact that this is the tiniest, most insignificant part of Volcens's character is quite alarming. Like, being an asshole to Sienna is probably the most harmless flaw of his. And his dad was even worse! With leaders like this, who needs warmongering empires? Yeah lol. Bulge-armor in history is sorta common, Henry the VIII (in any portrait you search of him) has like some metal thing down there. Apparently it's some sort of decoration so he didn't just use it because he was horny but well, I wouldn't be surprised if it's use was to hide whenever the king was thirsty. I've heard as much, yes, in a different thread. Epic. I mean this is a videogame, we are supposed to win right? so everythign will be fine. Hah, yes. That is the word I'd use, "fine". "You should have asked the professors for help before taking action yourself" No it never works like that. Professors are human and most of them are clueless on how to handle any of it. But whatever, this is dumb and I never will understand why people like to be bullies. I was pretty lucky, actually. I always had people around me who actually bothered to help. Though for the longest time breaks were my least favorite part of school. And I'm not. That's why I said "Imagine having a waifu with good stats". Sylvis has higher stats and more usability. She's just sweet overall. So you're telling me the pop-up appears for like a full second and you just stare at the screen before deciding "oh right the screenshot!" Yeah. Exactly. Is the 1/3 of health lost a scripted thing? No, not really. The spell just happened to deal damage roughly equivalent to 1/3rd of Arthur's health. Unbolded is Benice, Bolded is St. Rubenio. I sometimes do have trouble with that but it's happened to me always before. Like sometimes selecting things and the quote button doesn't appear. I just copy paste them into a quote box anyways though. Yeah, quoting things is a bit weird. The problem is that if you don't quote someone directly, they don't get a notification. Like other spell animations, this looks pretty awesome. I mean, few spells in this game don't look awesome. Basic wind, maybe? But that's about it. It's also good for getting... Alzheimers! Well atleast in GBA FE, and I know this is a shit joke my great grandma has Alzheimers Oh, goodness... Poor Erzheimer! So, blocking with shield doesn't nullify damage it just adds defense? I always thought the number just displayed there to show you how much he gained, not the damage taken with or without blocking. Yeah, shields add defense when they're used. That's what the green number next to the defense is for, in the battle forecast. It's possible to nullify damage with a shield if the defense bonus is high enough, but the number displayed below is always the damage taken. If it's none it just says "no damage taken!" Well you do have the entire night, but not once the sun rises... that's what I remember atleast but 24 turns is 12 hours so, actually you have a little bit after the sun rises if this battle starts at 12 AM. Well, details, meh. ... Well to each their own, if you like fat then- That is not what I meant, and you know that as well as I. nah I'm joking, I know what it is. That's better. On 7/11/2020 at 3:12 PM, The Roger The Paladin said: Hide contents No relation to slow cav? The hair color is the same, when you think about it... Given we meet Kefka in a seen where he's got sand in his boots... and he's nuts all game. Checks out. Everyone thought the process they put him through made him crazy. The sand made him crazy. He doesn't like sand. It's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere. I mean, he constantly says "I'll kill you" and his ending involves him shooting Genjuro (the biggest edgelord in the franchise) in the back and leaving him with the scar that he'd carry until his death later in the series. Hah! He sounds pretty hilarious. If he didn't work for a warlord as his enforcer and attempt to sell women into slavery to get money to pay for his hired mercenaries, then he'd just be a nice comedy character. ...Okay, maybe not that hilarious. Hell actually, if he didn't attempt to sell women into slavery, as to me that's a lot more evil than being on the wrong army. I mean, you'd not do that... well if Kaga wasn't making you. Turns out, Kaga was the mastermind behind Genjuro's evil deeds. He didn't want to do it, but he had to, because Kaga locked a very important thing behind selling women to slavery again. Genjuro's bravado was an attempt to provoke somebody to kill him, thus freeing him from his Kaga-induced misery. At the very least, I can repost it in other threads with utterly wicked things. Like Wraith's punishment in the crime and punishment thread. Goodness, what have I created...? It's also untrue. But it's funnier than "I didn't". Ahahahaha... There it is, that's what I had expected. I knew it made no sense for you to falter! If you go by that episode of Spongebob with Squidward's art class, Squidward would disagree. Mind the art critic wouldn't. Critics right? Squidward is the best Spongebob character, anyway. Who cares about some generic critic who never appeared again. I'd come up with a stereotypical excuse based on my country, but then I'd have to reveal it. Yeah, that's a bit of a problem, isn't it. The funny thing being, that particular Conan story was an adaption of Gardner Fox's Novel Kothar the Barbarian (a pastiche of the Conan series from the days when it was not being produced due to Robert E. Howard's suicide and the fact that L. Sprague De Camp was yet to get permission from his estate to revive it) into comic form... except with Conan for real this time (Fox was an old friend of the writer of the Conan comic). Gardner's notable for a few things. For one he invented the Flash, and wrote the first version of Batman's origin. But what's funny is that Gardner was a big H.P. Lovecraft fan, and named the Golem in the story Shokkoth, a slight change from Shoggoth... a demon from H.P. Lovecraft's works. So the big part of the gag is I've just taken an ancient joke and helped it finally reach full circle in a second aspect, after it had already in the first in the 1970s. Why do I know all this? Roy Thomas, the writer of the Conan comic at the time has some rather extensive notes on his run that were published when they were reprinted in the early 2000s. Shokkoth's appearance happened to be the first Conan tale I read, over a decade ago in said reprints. As it goes my father had the originals... but I ended up collecting the reprints because I liked the format, and the notes were rather entertaining. Always impresses me the extent of your knowledge when it comes to comics. I find it amazing I found a line to cross which got you to defend Volcens. I find it more worrying that you have to go that far for Volcens to be defensible. But you're right. Volcens isn't quite that bad. I'd be better comparing him to Caligula... actually no I wouldn't. He's not that bad either. DAMN IT REAL WORLD. Reality often surpasses fiction. Volcens wouldn't be that terrible compared to some of the jewels we call "leaders" today. There was no water of any tactical value. This line is absolutely hilarious. Not sure why, it just is. When you say that I feel like a real scumbag. Please don't, the responses were pretty funny. See what I mean? They were wise to flee. If it were Axel they'd have been dead. Axel's already good now, imagine when I get him a forged axe. I wish I could say that I knew that feeling, but my cliffhangers have been decided by the RNG. Can I really take credit for anything the RNG does? Hey, I can't take credit for chapter 5 either. It's just the fact that everyone is expecting total doom, and then it turns out that's not the case. It's such a nice feeling. See? That could literally be a Sankuro quote. Now you just need to shoot Volo in the back in your ending sequence and we're set. With pleasure! ...Damnit, I don't have a gun! Foiled again...! Did Kaga spend his time on Tear Ring and Berwick apologizing to archers by doing things like this? I mean Sylvis alone. I mean, I think in all of his games the only archers that come close to sucking as hard as almost every post-Kaga archer are Luca, Tanya and Ronan. And even then, there are ways to make Tanya and Ronan work, so it's really only Luca that the likes of Wolt, Rebecca, Wil, Neimi, Rolf, etc. have a chance against. So yeah. Kaga's been apolozing for Luca by making every archer that came after him godly. Starting with his sister. I could never decide which one's better out of Raquel and Sylvis. They're both just... so good...! The epic of Gilgamesh ends here. He just got Ow(e)ned. I dare you to pun Gilgamesh. I double dare you! And no, making a pun with "mess" based on "mesh" alone doesn't work. Pun the whooooooooole thing. Fates style capture is unironically the best thing about Fates. Being able to recruit and use so many enemy units? Hilarious. Also great for Iron Man runs (as long as you don't lose Orochi/Niles) because replaceable generics. It really does sound cool. Doesn't he know what happens to slow units? ...They get memed into MVP'ness? I mean, that's what happened to Derrick and Norton... I think I got the General idea. Ahahahahaha... Good, very good. Personally, I figure lying on the roof of a house between shots of a bow or crossbow would be good cover (if the roof was flat enough). Obviously you'd have to stand up to shoot, because you can't aim downwards through the roof. Or if there's a chimney you could use that as cover. Either way it takes you out of range of most physical attacks and makes it somewhat harder to hit you from the ground. Only problem is you'd have a damn hard time doing that if you didn't in advance, so I figure it's not what's going on here. I like how you strategically ommited the last part of my comment in your quote. Well... I half expected Daoud 2.0 at the end... but guess not. Though it's Gram shame that sword broke. The Gram breaking always sucks. Or a reference to Merlinus.Grrrr...

Yeah. I thought I deleted that earlier one at some point.Well, it doesn't really matter. I wonder if Vestaria Saga was referencing this guy specifically when one of the villagers would tell you of a guy who recently ran into the dessert yelling "The wrath of Zephir's blade!" and probably died there because he seemed to be all bluster. The Zephir Sword is that game's electric magic sword, btw. Same as the one this guy has. I don't think so. It was probably just an unrelated joke. Kaga most likely forgot about this man right after he created him. Anyway, Qadi here also has the hidden Weakness skill, so he can be fairly easily captured. So he is most certainly not meant to be as intimidating as he tries to make himself out to be.I've captured him in the past, actually. So that's why he was so easy... A shame I couldn't do it this time. Hey, Owen can use it after turn 20. Heheh, you cheeky bastard, you. Well, he can use Dark Heal and Nosferatu at least.Enough to be a dick! But so long as I always remember to have him retreat, all is well. I mean, they are specifically just arrowheads. Not actual arrows.Well, if Sherlock wasn't such a weakling, he could throw them hard enough for them to work! I'm sure Sylvis could pull it off. But those Raze priests only ever use dark magic.Well, what can I say? I see loot, I want loot. Woah! Did this thing break on green durability? That sucks.Nah, thankfully. It was yellow. Yellow... still sucks, but at least it's not green. Anything but green, please. And how come you are blond in your portrait but have grey hair on your map sprites while I have brown hair in my portrait but blond hair on my map sprites? Ahahahah... Yeah, the color discrepancies in this game are weird.

Reveal hidden contents And then they'll ALSO have to get her costume. Hide contents I might have mentioned this already, but somehow many of BWS's maps make me think of "MechCommander 2" missions. That reminds me of the tanks in TearRing Saga. ...Seriously, tanks should've returned in Berwick. Berwick does, like, everything better than TRS, but TRS has tanks! Ah, arrows! Yes. Arrows! Also: (Alternatively) Ahah! (MechCommander 2 is definitely one of my favorites PC games despite some flaws that kinda make it inferior to its prequel: wish they made a game combining "MechCommander" gameplay, "Front Mission" mech customization (which makes more sense than MC's) and "Goddess kiss" characters and graphics) (Actually they sorta made something like that a while ago, but it never made it out of Japan and it's already long since dead anyway) I see... I never heard of that one, myself. I love this guy, I swear. I mean, he's batshit insane, but... Such a fun boss fight. https://www.deviantart.com/mia-chan00/art/Touhoumon-020-and-021-325812069 Oh, it's pokemon! That series that I do not like! https://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic/poison-control This one's a classic. And it being Erk and Serra is just perfect, too. *Insert Ruben's quote with pics of Sherlock and Percival missing* I always am a fool. But by God, I'll get something out of them or die trying. Them, I mean. And that's all for today: i tried to put Part 42 in here too, but juggling between pages makes doing this posts even more annoying than usual and i already lost ALL of the stuff above today, forcing me to redo the whole thing again right now, so... Wait, did you just edit your reply and changed literally everything? Sheesh... Well, guess I'll reply to that too. On 7/12/2020 at 4:21 AM, Golb89 said: Hide contents For the Covid. Maybe. Ergh... Yeah, let's go with that. That too. That is a reason I can get behind. Why is so much of this applicable to TF2? THAT's the part that got you impressed?!?! Yeah. I don't understand why the animal ears were necessary. Is the reason Japan? Sienna who? You don't want to know. Oh wow, she's tall and buff. ...Never mind. Ingame she's generic anime physique. Pah... Err... pretty sure that's only a curse for FE & co. characters though? (And only with healing staves, as vulneraries/herbs/potions works fine anyway) Not really. I've seen it in plenty of other games. It's not that common, but it's not exclusive to FE either. Grrr... You know, to this day I still don't know what this character's actual name is. I just call her Martel and hate her. I'll make her a shopkeep like I did the other Martel! Horsewomen, technically (pretty sure there isn't a single male kuranta in the game yet, not even in the CN server) I mean, why would there be? Fanservice with females sells more, and that's all they care about. Or so I'd imagine, given how little male fanservice there is in games of this kind. Personally, I could do without fanservice of any kind. But that's just me being stuck up, I guess. As far as i remember it only happened twice in 12 episodes+specials and you already saw both of them. Pah. Weakling. Dummy linking (actually you already saw that before, kind of): on the other hand, i have no idea why there are so many Abineko clones there... Still kinda weird that she'd talk to a clone of herself... How self-centered do you have to be? You tell me... Sheesh... Nope, but this might be. Ahahah! Okay, that one's funny. Again: who? Some character from a game I don't really like. People say he's brilliantly written, like every other character in the game. I think every character in the game is overrated. Except Hanneman. Of course the best character in the game is the one that nobody cares about. Ah, I see. Good measures, yes. Why'd you have to go and try to ruin her for me? Now that you mention it... And apparently she REALLY used to be a OP swormaster before dedicating herself to praying and healing. (Archive file 3) And yes, that skin exists in-game too. Ah, gachas. How fascinating you are. And Risa is a common female name in japan. (And "risa" means "laughters" in italian too) Ah, language differences. Always lovely. Ostia, anyone? As a matter of fact she can do just that too: her 2nd skill is one of the few sources of "true damage" (i.e. completely ignores DEF nd RES) in the game. So it's luna, then. But you alredy did: *Insert Ruben's quote with screenshoot of Czene dying a horrible death here* Oh, please... It seems you missed the point of that video: Ohhhhhhh, I see. Yeah, that does make sense. On 7/12/2020 at 12:40 PM, ranger016 said: Hide contents The messenger probably told Gilgamesh they know where to find the Excalibur. Hah! But... Wait, we don't have the Excalibur! The messenger lied! Why bother hoping he will... See? My Perceval would probably proc Adept and miss again just to laugh at me as well. I really don't understand what's up with Perceval. His hitrate isn't even that bad, but he just seems to love missing! Don't be so negative now! He managed to get 30 skills on my run... At the 2nd last turn of the final chapter. In my second run I actively RNG-abused levels for him and Aegina every chance I got. Aegina promoted at the end of chapter 12-1. Perceval? Chapter 12-2. Literally the last point in the game where he could've promoted. Suffice to say, those awful promotions of theirs were extremely unsatisfying to see after the trouble I went through to get 'em. That 0 avoid is too attractive I guess. His hitrate against Sherpa still sucked, though... I wonder how it looked against the knights, considering one got targeted and just dodged. Fun fact, my Reese killed him in one round thanks to crit and Adept. Lucky you! I won't lose to Derrick. Hahahahahah... I swear, if this ends up being a run where my two knights compete to see who can become the fastest, I'll die a happy man. Have to say it is surprising to see him getting weapon skill only level, since my Arthur was pretty much a monster. Will post my endgame team after you get a bit far in the story. If I don't forget, like I did with TRS... Arthur's a pretty good unit, but bad levels are bound to happen with this game's growths. See, you couldn't handle him. Paahhh... And the Gram, since you couldn't even kill him in the end. Eh, I mean, details... 14 hours ago, BrightBow said: I keep forgetting to bring this up... I tested out what happens if you capture Minas but don't kill Theodore. There is an additional scene after the map where Ward explains to Reese that they were pursued by a lone, persistent knight. Ward took it upon himself to put that knight six feet under. And while he was at it, he also took that strange box with him that the knight was clutching close to him. So yeah, either way Reese ends up with the Decorative Box, so the way Theodore is dealt with probably has no effect on how this event plays out. Cool! I heard of that scene's existence, but I was unsure if it was actually used or it was just in the game's code. Ward can be quite the busy bee after this map, between saving Esteban and killing Theodore. Guy deserves a raise. ...Though it does screw with the timeline of events even more. I have the high ground: Spoiler We saved Vester last time. Now, the offscreen army, having done offscreen things, marches back into Navarron. You needn't thank me. I merely performed the duty that was ordered of me by Lord Vanmilion. Ha ha ha... Stiff, but dependable! That's an understatement. If this guy was any stiffer he'd be a stick figure. Just like General Bernstol. Much more respectable than those brownnosing page-boys the royal family likes to keep around... Are you quite familiar with the people of the royal capital, Lord Vester? When I was younger, I studied abroad there for about five years. When I first got there, I was amazed at the city's magnificence and beauty... Take that Padolf's moronic son, for instance... Wait, this isn't the time for idle chatter like this... D'awww... I wanted to know what Padolf's son is like. Does it start with a W, by any chance? I need to meet with the Duke. Lord Reese, I'll pay you a visit at your residence later. Let Tianna know that I'm coming, won't you? Wait, how does he know Tianna is our secretary? She was supposed to be Vanmilion's subordinate! Shouldn't he be telling this to Vanmilion? Tianna...? All right, I'll do that... It went well, though I must say, he was not like I had imagined. He's quite an outspoken man. A daring and free spirit. He seemed to know you, as well. Yes... We've met... He said he would stop by later. It also sounded like he wanted to see you in particular... ...... Tianna...? Ergh... Yeah! Exactly! Ahahahahahahah! Well, whatever the history between those two is, it appears Tianna does not approve. ...... ...... It says that today is her mother's birthday, so she'd like to take some time off to pay her a visit... Do you know when she will be returning? I'm sorry, I don't... She seemed to be in a hurry... Lord Reese! I've come to visit, as promised. We've got lots to talk about, and drinks are on me tonight! Ward, you come, too! Hah, that sounds like a good time! We will have to take you up on-- Lord Vester, why are you carrying a bouquet of roses? Oh, these? They're for Tianna, of course. Where is my darling, anyway? I haven't seen her in more than half a year. I-It can't be... Um... Were the two of you not aware...? Are you saying you were, Rosalie? I thought everyone knew that she was engaged... Then the two of you have discussed this? Well, no... But when a lady wears a diamond ring on her finger, it seems pretty clear she's taken... No, I didn't... Bwahahahahahahah! Excellent! I can understand this coming from Ward, but Reese too? Also, apparently Reese has never had an idle chat with Tianna in the months he's been here. He really has no emotions...! He lives for duty and battle, and nothing else! He's an empty husk in times of peace! How did Lynette ever fall for this doofus...? Though I suppose I shouldn't be so surprised. A beautiful woman like her must have more than a few gentleman callers vying for her hand... ("More than a few"?) I'm glad you're both so interested, but where has Tianna gone to? I still haven't seen her yet... Oh, I'm sorry. Unfortunately, Tianna had some urgent business to attend to. I imagine she will return tomorrow, although... Oh, and after this absolutely unbelievable turn of events, Reese fails to see through Tianna's blatantly obvious bullshit excuse to disappear just in time to avoid Vester. Though, in all fairness, I could totally believe that Reese has no idea when Tianna's mom's birthday really takes place. Or that she has a mother. Sheesh... No wonder he so easily fell for Barselphon's crap. Oh... Guess it can't be helped. I can wait another day, I suppose. Well, Lord Reese, when the two of you are ready, find me at my house. You'll always be welcome there! You can say that again. Tianna and Lord Vester... engaged? To think that she will one day be the Duchess of Bornia, but she hid something so important from us? Wait, what are you talking about, Ward? How will she become the Duchess of Bornia? ...L-Lord Reese, you said it yourself, they're engaged... And yet, Tianna always claimed to be a non-combatant. She never spoke of any bouts between her and Lord Vester. ...Do... Do you not know what it means to be "engaged"? No, he doesn't. B-But how do you not know something like that!? Are you dumb, Lord Ree-- I'LL BE YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE IF YOU CONTINUE BEING SUCH AN INSOLENT, WORTHLESS MAGGOT. E-Eeeeek! Sigh... I'll explain later, Lord Reese... ...? That lady Tianna certainly likes to keep us in the dark... General Ward, please don't speak ill of Lady Tianna like that! You have no right to judge her for having her own private life! Y-Yes, you're right... I spoke rather rashly... I did not truly mean any slight against Lady Tianna, but it was a rather rude thing to say nonetheless... Honestly, you should be more careful! You're a good man, General Ward, but you can be so insensitive! Y-Yes... I apologize... ...So what does being "engaged" mean, then? Do you know, tactician? I know the basic concept, anyway... For now, Rosalie will replace Tianna in the office. Nice attention to detail, right there. Yeah, they can have Gilgamesh. I can only hope he found what he came for... The thunder god I brought the Raijin Arrowheads. Thanks for your trouble. How was Columban? ...... Well, how was he, Sherlock? ...The house was empty. The only things left were the arrowheads and this letter. ...... How many decades has it been? I was an alchemist's assistant, and you were starting as an apprentice bowyer. Remember what we used to do? You made the bows and arrow stocks while I made the heads, and together, we made the arrows of the Thunder God. We were quite the team way back then, weren't we? Now, I leave behind my last present to you. Show the world that we old folks have still got it! Your friend, Columban. Bluck, I... Y'know, it was thanks to Columban that I managed to become a bowyer in the first place. We had different goals, but we still helped each other, and we understood each other... Most of the time, anyway. More than once, we argued from sundown to sunup... Heh... I'd probably get sick if I tried to do that today... Sounds like he has a good friend. Yeah, he was... Well, I'll be damned if I don't fulfill his last request! And a cut to black later... (How's that, Columban? Think I did a good job?) I can see why they're called the thunder god's arrows... Look how they shine...! Our last collaboration... Sherlock, I want you to have them. You made it possible, after all. I can't take something so precious from you... Thank you... I'll use them well. If I let you use them, Sherlock, you'll miss with them all. They're going to Sylvis, no questions asked. That was sad. I hope this'll be less sad. I always say that and it never happens... Hm? What happened to Lady Tianna? Something came up, so I'm here in her place. Oh, I see. Well, thank you all the same! Please take this as repayment for your generosity. I'm sorry, I can't take that... If I do, Lady Tianna will scold me. No, no, I can't simply leave you unrewarded for your efforts! Take it, I insist! Money! By the way, I have good news. We've already been contracted for our next job. WHAT I see. Break a leg, I suppose! Break his leg, if anything! Are you telling me Kaga put this sidequest in this particular chapter just so Tianna wouldn't hear about Barselphony from Karmell? Kaga, you evil dastard...! (Barselphon... Have I heard that name before...?) Oh, please... I at least hope you don't take too long to remember. M-Mmph... I... Oh, thank you, kind souls... M-My career is saved! You're the champions of the Berwick League!! They're up there, yeah... Lisa'll be glad to hear about this. When I told her we might be forced to disband, she was so sad... I'll go home as soon as Karmell's done here. Could I come with you? It's been a while since I last visited. I'd like to see how your horse's doing. Well, he's hanging in there, even without a leg... He's brave, that one. And you're the most wonderful of people to have given it a proper home! A beautiful friendship between man and horse, born from turmoil and remorse... Truly, it does warm this heart of mine...! Boo hoo hoo...! Ahahah... Well, I do owe it my life. Would be mighty selfish of me to leave it alone and helpless. I've had plenty of soldiers under my command who wouldn't have hesitated before leaving their steeds behind and running for it. I would've been proud to have you as my subordinate, Vincent. Thank you, sir. That means a lot. Well, guys, what are we waiting for? We've wasted enough time! We have to practice! If we forget our lines, that costume won't save us! C'mon, c'mon, on the double! Let's go! All right, all right! Calm down! Goodness... I can never keep up with you. Too bad, 'cause I'm waiting for noone! I'll be the greatest actor this continent has ever seen! Hahah! Coming from you... I believe it. Well, then! Let us go. Well, that was infuriating. Yeah...! My sister's hat... Thank you so much! (It was a bit tough, but it was well worth the effort.) L-Liz?! Oh, boy. Well, looks like there'll be at least one happy ending today. Huh...? Maris! Thank the Goddess you're alive! The same to you! You were bleeding so badly... I thought the soldiers had killed you! I only escaped by playing dead. After they left, I tried to get away... But I couldn't catch up to you with my hurt leg. Luckily, the Narvian Army saved me. All this time, we've been so close... The sisters who live and work there are all amazing people. Even though I had no money, they cared for me just the same. I wanted to repay them somehow, so I started helping out, too. During my time off, I've been looking around the city for you... And now, here you are...! Liz... I'm so happy you're alive! I-I've been so alone... I'm sorry, Maris... It must have been awful... Maris, who is this? Well... When I thought you'd died, I was going to go back to Turon to get the hat you made for me... You were going to go back?! Yeah... But this nice guy went all the way and got it for me. He did all that...? It's no big deal. I'm just glad you found him. My brother and I are deeply indebted to you. I wish I could thank you somehow... No, don't worry about it. Here, this is for you, Sir. Really? A pretty jewel like this? I was gonna keep it, but I want you to have it instead. You sure? I've got my big sis back. I don't need anything else. All right, then. I'll take it. Thanks again, Sir. Yes! Thank you very much! Don't mention it. Take care, you two! Materials are good. I think this makes orbs? Next up, Erzheimer. You know the drill, Erzie. I give you items, you give me money, the readers misspell your name. Okay. Ahh, there we go, first Erzheimer scene! You get scenes when you reach a certain amount of items, and when you complete a certain set of deliveries. This is one of the former, though we'll probably start getting the others soon. We only need to get a sleep orb for the "dark magic set" scene, for instance. Oho! Yet another of my dreams come true! This is simply magnificent! I am glad you like it. It's all thanks to you, Sir Ward! As a personal show of thanks, let me show you one of my treasures... Clara, if you would, please. Yes, Master. You really don't need to... ...... (I suppose there's no stopping him once he gets like this...) I just love how Ward lets Erzheimer strong-arm him into looking at art. He just doesn't know how to refuse people who aren't young girls. It may perhaps be the greatest work in my entire collection! It must be kept clean of fingerprints, so please do not touch. Aside from Clara, you are the first I have ever shown it to, Sir Ward. What do you think? Well... Hwahahahahahahahah... Man, I love these two, seriously. And this isn't even their best scene. Far from it. This statue, well... It seems to remind me somewhat of my own daughter... ...Noo... I don't need depression at this point in time, Ward...! Remarkable! ...It is? Yes, Sir Ward! Truly remarkable! For you see, Sergei crafted this work with his own daughter as the model... and it is said that his wife was a woman of Sinon! I expected no less of a fine man of the arts such as yourself, Sir Ward! What...? Ah, I have a wonderful idea! I'll show you that one next...! ...Damn it... Sir Ward... Hm? Clara! Come here, Clara! Ah! Yes, Master! I am coming! 10/10 would capture people for their items again. That's... not the title I would expect next to the name "Marcel". Ooooh! Who's that letter to that you're writing so passionately? Aah, Teresa! Don't look! Oh...? Could it be... ...... You're writing a love letter to that handsome young knight, aren't you? Oh, Cecily, Cecily... I can't watch you keep getting your heart broken like this! You know he'll just leave you high and dry when he gets bored of you, just like all the others! Ah... Every time he looks at me, it's like my body's about to melt... He looks like a 12 year old in heavy armor contemplating the meaning of life. Let's hope you don't actually melt, or else you'd be in a bad way... Oh, Sir Marcel... Earth to Cecily! You're at work! You have a job to do for the people who come in your shop! Sir Marcel comes here so often... He always speaks so kindly and politely to me... Every word he says is so honest and dignified, like a true knight! Bwahahahahahah! This whole scene's just Cecily fantasizing while Teresa roasts her. But every time he does, I feel faint, and I've had trouble plucking up the courage to talk to him... But earlier, when he came in here, I had this big surge of bravery! I called out to him, "You can do it, Sir Marcel!" Uh-huh... So, what did he say then? Then, I didn't know what to say... I completely blew it... (Oh, Cecily...) Oh boy, there's the man himself. Yes, Miss Cecily? P-Please read this! Oh? Could this perhaps be... Brilliant. Off to a wonderful start. N-No, it's not an invoice! These are my feelings? Your... feelings? Y-Yes... Please, do read it... ...I'm afraid I cannot. I must return this to you. I cannot let other matters of life distract me at this time. My apologies, Miss Cecily... B-But... Awwwww... Don't be too heartbroken, Cecily... At least you didn't fall for Reese. If it was Reese, he would've carefully read the letter from start to finish, and he'd still be convinced that it was an invoice. I like how it started to rain just in time for her to sink even deeper into a depression. Eh? Elbert...? ...Oh, God, this guy looks like a serial rapist... Huh...? ...You know, I considered editing his face here. Then I realized his standard portrait looks awful enough for this... ahem, this line. Incidentally, OH MY GOD HE REALLY IS A SERIAL RAPIST, RUN Ah, thank you... But what about you, sir? I will endure... It is far better that you be spared from the dangerous elements than I. But I fear rain is not what has dampened your spirits... Does something ail you, fair maiden? You're too kind... But yes, there has been something on my mind as of late. Impossible... A beautiful and charming woman such as yourself, spurned?! What has this world come to... Huh...? Come on now...! Cecily can't possibly be falling for this! He's so obvious, look at him! He looks like he's permanently staring at her b-- Oh, and the scene just ends there. Formidable. Well, let's watch Sherlock's little romance with Ophelia blossom. Yeah, there we are... Nothing depressing happening this time-- Oh. But I've finally found you, Witch of Soleil! ...! My good people, you mustn't trust anything this woman has told you! The melodies that come from her lyre are meant to bewitch and befuddle, that she might steal your life-force! Berwick Saga: The game where for every uplifting scene, there are at least three involving murder, rape and other really nice things like that. Ah...! I-I... None must ever forget what you did to the people of Soleil! Are you planning to drain the life of the people here, too?! My good people, do not let this woman deceive you! I will not allow you to consume the lives of our citizens! Well shit, she's gone. What is wrong with you?! Why would you say something so ridiculous and hurtful? One more word, and I'll knock some sense into you personally! I don't care if you are a priest! Hm... Has she beguiled you with her looks and her charms? Then let me make this quite clear: That woman is a witch who stole the lives of many people in Soleil! ...Get out of my way. ...... Ophelia, I'm here. Please answer me! I'm sorry... I'm sorry...! Ophelia, please! Just come outside! What?! I won't believe it... That's a lie, Ophelia...! Sherlock... Please, go home... Otherwise, I don't know what will happen to you... O-Ophelia... Probably not a good time for this, but I just realized her neck is... extremely long. Look at that! You could fit a second head between her head and her shoulders! Oh? It's you again... ...... Judging by your face, it seems you've realized it. Everything I said was the truth. Explain something to me. How exactly can she be a witch? Pitiable fool... Answer my question. I have no reason to respond to the vulgar words of a man like yourself. Oh, okay. Just... throw wild accusations at a person and then make no effort to explain yourself. Yeah, that works. I will say only this: That woman, like her father, is a filthy apostate. (...Her father?) Can this please, please not be terrible!? Wait... who the hell is Burroughs? Ah, there he is. I like his design. The heck was that for? You scared the living daylights out of me! I got tired of waiting for you. C'mon, let's go get a drink. I can't. Bianca's already making dinner back at the house. This guy's gonna be a piece of work, isn't he? ...... ...Sorry, that was out of line. Mr. Klamp... If that's all, I think I'll be off for today. Yeah, see you. Good work today. Who's he? A coworker. Huh... If you don't stop babyin' her, she's gonna wind up messed up, y'know? Can't go through life countin' on her cute face to take care of her... Ahahahah... Perfect introduction to these characters, I'd say. Nah, that's the thing! Eh? Bianca... She's pretty, she's smart, she's cheerful, she's... uh... (Hic!) (Not this again...) Tha'sss why I'm worried 'bout her, y'know? I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if she wound up married to some no-good sleazeball... Me?! Our dad... Boy, what a loser he was... He was never around, so I had to be the man of the house... And I'm the only one who can do it right, you got that!? Yeah, yeah, I got it... Good! ...... ...(Hic!) He who is the only one who can do it right, ladies and gentlemen. Getting drunk off his ass. You sure? You've already had plenty. Whassat...? You got a lotta nerve talkin' back to your best customers... Hey now, relax... Oh hey, there's Ward in the background! Hey, Bianca. Burroughs! You know my brother is hopeless about his drinking! Why would you bring him to an awful place like this?! Hahahahahah... It does seem to be a bit of a running gag, doesn't it? Come on, Klamp! We're going home! ...Sure... (I suppose she's not always as cheerful as you say, eh, Klamp?) She tries to pull him away from the bar. ...... Hey, Burroughs... Yeah? You might be no good... But you're good in my book. But no gettin' too friendly! No gettin' hitched or anythin', you got that?! I think I'm going to be sick... I got it, Klamp. Just go home and get some sleep now, all right? Yeah... Sorry about all this, Bianca. Honestly, do you ever do anything besides cause trouble? Why do you have to associate yourself with my brother? You should just leave him alone! Pffft... Yeah, that's totally what you should be saying right now. Did you say something? I said, you're a good sister, taking your brother home like this. ...Right. Shouldn't you be going home, too? Oki-dokie, you know the drill. We've got two secondary missions to choose from. Ancient Treasure is an interesting chapter, but we'll deal with the Visitor first. I mean, it'd be rude to just leave them waiting, no? I was curious what could be so urgent that someone would seek me out even on a stormy night like this. I apologize for the trouble... As you have surmised, Lord Reese, I have an urgent request of you. But first, let me introduce myself. I am Ellis, knight of Angul. Angul... In the western Lowlands, if I'm not mistaken? Yes, you are correct, I was previously stationed at Fort Ziredd there. Although now that the Lowlands have fallen, the fort has been occupied by Imperial forces... Yes, the loss of the Lowlands has affected us all terribly... But well met, Dame Ellis. Please, tell me your story. Soon after, the Empire cut off our supply route, and we were isolated. Thanks to General Abus, we were able to hold out for three months. But with no relief from our allies in sight, the end was inevitable... Please, use this towel to dry your hair and clothes! Hm? Oh, no thank you. I'm all right. ...Ah, forgive me. Not sure what the point of that bit was, but eh. Some fluff's all right here and there. I was able to live on... But not a day passes that I am not ashamed... But now, I think I can repay my debt to General Abus. Do you mean... The general did not die in battle? Yes, he still lives. After fighting personally on the front lines to help us escape, he was taken captive by the Imperial Army. Now, he is being held in a prison camp called Calvaria. A letter?! Yes, Reese, a letter. It's really not that shocking, I mean, apparently you got a whole messenger through to Vester while he was in the middle of that fort crawling with Bornians. He asked me to plead with you to rescue him and his suffering companions from the camp. Does it say anything else? It seems that on the night of the next new moon, they will be moved to another camp. Calvaria is a natural fortress with many guards and lookouts. It is well-protected. However, the roads leading to it pass through a thick forest. He drew up this map for us, as well. He drew this in such detail, even though he was imprisoned... Yes... Please help me, Lord Reese! This may be the only chance we have to rescue General Abus! Of course, I understand. General Ward and I will make due preparations and send a small team to rescue General Abus. Thank you so much, Lord Reese! I'm guessing this is the famous camp? Tsk, tsk. Should you really be taking that tone with me? Who was it whom you begged with tearful eyes to let him rest in bed in the first place? This isn't going to end well, is it...? Now, on to the matter at hand. Yesterday evening, a group of men attempted to escape. Needless to say, they have been punished for their crimes. Those who do not obey the rules must face the consequences. However... ...Do it. Goodness gracious! Stop it! You're killing him! ...Ah, my apologies. Allowing guests like yourselves to die is the last thing I want. And yet... Even though I allow soldiers like you to live, there are those who take advantage of my kindness. ...Like one who assisted the others in their attempt to escape. Oh wow, that man's beard is magnificent. We must save him. We need all the beards we can get. Now, I wonder... Who was it? Who would do such a thing? Who on earth could it have been? ...Yeah, it was me. It was me, all right?! So leave my brother out of it! He's got nothing to do with this! Ah, what a wonderful thing brotherly love is... Oh dear No... Do you understand your position now, "Big Brother"? I always go overboard with these faces... Stop, Fyodor! What hateful eyes you have... Fyodor, have you forgotten where it is you are? In this prison, I am king. I can do with you what I please. If you want to hate someone, hate your incompetent General Abus for letting this happen to you. Well. This guy's sure made a solid case for himself. What does she care if they're here or there? Seems awfully unnecessary... Well, orders are orders... Start the preparations. Freyr... Freyr... ...Endure it, Fyodor. Suddenly, Derrick! I also recruited Faye, Kramer and Ruby. First off, following Brightbow's counsel, I buy a sapphire and craft the Rossweisse. I'm doing this entirely because you told me to, Brightbow. I'm going to hold you accountable every time Sylvis misses with this thing. Okay, Sylvis. The bow is yours. The name probably gives you good memories. ...Have Sherlock's thunder god arrows too. No biases here. None. Arthur won't be coming next time, so Faye takes some of his gear. I'll also use our repairstone to fix the cutlass. I could use it on the Gram, but... That thing needs more than a 4 use repairstone. Green is good, but that's just asking for the thing to break immediately, wasting the four uses. There we go, wonderful. The amber we got earlier is a fortify ingredient. Keep it safe, Lumiere. Elbert picks up a bag. I like how half his inventory are half-broken shields. Ruby drinks this thing down. I hope it tastes good. Come to think about it, I'm not sure how literal energy in liquid form would taste like. At any rate, 27 HP is a bit better for a person who's going to take a couple of hits eventually. And... I might regret this, but Owen is going to give Enid his miracle charm. He mostly keeps to the rear and has holy for those situations where he cannot escape. Meanwhile, Enid needs to throw herself at enemies to level up, so... Yeah. Honestly, I'm just scared off my ass after William's mission. Well, at any rate, that's our next assignment. Abus, Fyodor and the other two green units that we saw in the background at the camp will be transfered to a different location. That's when we come in. Too late for Freyr, sadly, but perhaps we can save his brother, at least. We'll find out next time. See you then! Buh-byeeeee~!

BrightBow Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) Spoiler 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Wait, how does he know Tianna is our secretary? She was supposed to be Vanmilion's subordinate! Shouldn't he be telling this to Vanmilion? Let's not bring another blond guy into this conversation. With Reese's grey hair and Vester's blond, that's just gonna make things even more confusing. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I take it you changed this one from "closet", or is there a more recent version of the patch then the one from the start of the year? 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Well, no... But when a lady wears a diamond ring on her finger, it seems pretty clear she's taken... Of course Rosalie would pay attention for signs of Tianna's relationship status. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: To think that she will one day be the Duchess of Bornia, but she hid something so important from us? If you find that crazy, wait until you find out who this mansion you're living in actually belongs to. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Thank you... I'll use them well. Bahahahahahaha!!! 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Not sure why he always keeps a lady chained next to him. But hey, I'm not judging. Not like I didn't keep plenty of chained up girls around back in the day... Sorry old friend, but could you please keep those memories of the past for yourself while you are in my bar. People insult this place enough as it is. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: (Barselphon... Have I heard that name before...?) It sounds like the name of the guy who kidnapped Lady Minas, but clearly he would have fled the city by now. Or at least changed his name. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh, please... I at least hope you don't take too long to remember. No worries. Because it's Unforgettable. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: This statue, well... It seems to remind me somewhat of my own daughter... It's just a pile of stone. Where else have I seen a pile of stone? Oh yeah, on the grave of that blue haired girl. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: You're writing a love letter to that handsome young knight, aren't you? Oh, Cecily, Cecily... I can't watch you keep getting your heart broken like this! I have no choice but to propose to you myself! 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Ah... Every time he looks at me, it's like my body's about to melt... She's not listening, is she? Oh well, maybe another time. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Careful. If you get any smoother, you'll slide down the street. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: If you think she is defiling the city with her unholy presence, wait until you find out who sits on Roswick's throne. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I have no reason to respond to the vulgar words of a man like yourself. You seemed pretty eager to share your story when you broke down that door 10 minutes ago. Oh well, do as you will. Just don't come crying for help if you happen to get stuck in the desert later this chapter. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I will say only this: That woman, like her father, is a filthy apostate. (...Her father?) (...Aposwhatnow?) 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I suppose if I have to decide between the guy who always makes me pay his tab or the girl who is literally putting food on my table right now... 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Shit!!! Every time! No point fighting it, man. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: If you don't stop babyin' her, she's gonna wind up messed up, y'know? Can't go through life countin' on her cute face to take care of her... Man, whatever a woman does, it's just never enough in this city, huh? May it be a genius alchemist or a brilliant engineer. I think she has other things going for her, buddy. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Our dad... Boy, what a loser he was... He was never around, so I had to be the man of the house... And I'm the only one who can do it right, you got that!? Never at home... just hanging out at the bar all day... skipping dinner and shit, that ungrateful bastard! 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I mean, it's not gonna be to recruit Volo. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Not sure what the point of that bit was, but eh. Some fluff's all right here and there. Well, she likes beautiful women. So I guess she just wanted an excuse for a closer look. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...Right. Shouldn't you be going home, too? But I live here. Can confirm. (Hic!) 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: What hateful eyes you have... Fyodor, have you forgotten where it is you are? In this prison, I am king. I can do with you what I please. If you want to hate someone, hate your incompetent General Abus for letting this happen to you. Also Volcens. Just saying. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I'm doing this entirely because you told me to, Brightbow. I'm going to hold you accountable every time Sylvis misses with this thing. Huh, did I tell you to do that? Well, whatever. It's a fantastic weapon. Just don't let it break like the Gram. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Well, at any rate, that's our next assignment. Abus, Fyodor and the other two green units that we saw in the background at the camp will be transfered to a different location. That's when we come in. Too late for Freyr, sadly, but perhaps we can save his brother, at least. We'll find out next time. See you then! Buh-byeeeee~! Just make sure you can handle the mini boss.

Punished Dayni Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Spoiler 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Assuming they do. They might just add more fanservice outfits and call it a day. They did fix most of the other bugs in fairness. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Good. She's useless anyway. Disappears one third into the game and only comes back for two completely stupid scenes that serve no purpose. I mean, why couldn't Byleth just... Wake up from his coma? It'd be contrived, but a bit less so than "dragon loli who died comes back to wake Byleth conveniently in time for the worst chapter in FE history" Spoiler Jeez, I use that as a joke line and trigger you? Boy, when was Sothis Mongolian? 1. She disappears near halfway map wise and in terms of months passed. 2. The idea that she was dead forever didn't seem to be the case, though I will agree that she should have been gone longer. 3. I mean, I do think a scene could have been made that could express Byleth waking up alone. But I'd rather do that with a rewritten Byleth thank you. 4. That S support was made to try and break me. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: But... they're in jail! When did they get mail!? Unless they mean the guy who broke the cell door down. That... makes a bit more sense, I guess. That is an appropriate message to people you're being broken out. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: FE5 thoron is similar. Not nearly as fast, but it's... close enough. I was thinking beyond Thoron. Though I didn't remember Thoron's look in Thracia (It's.... been a while). 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: To be honest, I don't think it's that bad. Heck, this is the same game that has a Jonathan! How can anything beat fucking Jonathan? Martin's worse. Part of it because of him being Taoiseach. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Ha ha ha... Stiff, but dependable! That's an understatement. If this guy was any stiffer he'd be a stick figure. How would you get the stick out of him? 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: D'awww... I wanted to know what Padolf's son is like. Does it start with a W, by any chance? Waldorf? 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: He said he would stop by later. It also sounded like he wanted to see you in particular... ...... Tianna...? This is not fine ALERT ALERT 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Lord Reese! I've come to visit, as promised. We've got lots to talk about, and drinks are on me tonight! Ward, you come, too! Hah, that sounds like a good time! We will have to take you up on-- Lord Vester, why are you carrying a bouquet of roses? Oh, these? They're for Tianna, of course. Where is my darling, anyway? I haven't seen her in more than half a year. Well someone's happy to be mingling. Can't blame him for wanting to be free after jail. (Also, Orson was triggered. Hell, Vester could possibly be a younger Orson.) 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Bwahahahahahahah! Excellent! I can understand this coming from Ward, but Reese too? Also, apparently Reese has never had an idle chat with Tianna in the months he's been here. He really has no emotions...! He lives for duty and battle, and nothing else! He's an empty husk in times of peace! How did Lynette ever fall for this doofus...? Though I suppose I shouldn't be so surprised. A beautiful woman like her must have more than a few gentleman callers vying for her hand... ("More than a few"?) I'm glad you're both so interested, but where has Tianna gone to? I still haven't seen her yet... Does Ward think she's a skank? The nerve! And Vester, maybe chill on thinking everyone wants to bang your fiance. This won't end for you if you chase everyone who might help you off with your flags a flutterin'. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...So what does being "engaged" mean, then? Do you know, tactician? I know the basic concept, anyway... Oooh, self burn. Not like I'm doing better. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yeah, they can have Gilgamesh. I can only hope he found what he came for... I will not deign to get the appropriate response for this failure of a reference. Begone, may you never appear again. (Imagine if units you captured and sold came back in later chapters?) 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Poor Bluck, missing his friend. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: WHAT I see. Break a leg, I suppose! Break his leg, if anything! Are you telling me Kaga put this sidequest in this particular chapter just so Tianna wouldn't hear about Barselphony from Karmell? Kaga, you evil dastard...! THAT MOTHERFUCKER. IS THIS WHERE WE'RE GOING TO SEE HIS COMEUPPANCE? LET'S SEE HIM GET MACBETH'D TO DEATH (Also, considering what's going down with the FEtubers right now, Barselphon is definitely in the "not okay" camp for me right now) 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Materials are good. I think this makes orbs? Not as good as seeing a happy family. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: This statue, well... It seems to remind me somewhat of my own daughter... ...Noo... I don't need depression at this point in time, Ward...! I'm seeing my daughter in statues. This is getting to me. Me: Fucking hell that's rough buddy. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Bwahahahahahah! This whole scene's just Cecily fantasizing while Teresa roasts her. I was not anticipating him having a story. He just seemed like his time was up. But now, with this? MY TIME HAS COME! And wow, Teresa's being very rude. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh? Could this perhaps be... Come on then, you pansy! 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: I cannot let other matters of life distract me at this time. My apologies, Miss Cecily... B-But... Awwwww... Don't be too heartbroken, Cecily... At least you didn't fall for Reese. If it was Reese, he would've carefully read the letter from start to finish, and he'd still be convinced that it was an invoice. None shall pass. My heart. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...Oh, God, this guy looks like a serial rapist... Lane can run off one already, he reads as a villain just by his look. (This is also in the fucking yikes camp because of the shit I mentioned earlier) As some levity, this should be everyone's response to this guy. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: My good people, you mustn't trust anything this woman has told you! The melodies that come from her lyre are meant to bewitch and befuddle, that she might steal your life-force! Berwick Saga: The game where for every uplifting scene, there are at least three involving murder, rape and other really nice things like that. More like 5. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Sherlock... Please, go home... Otherwise, I don't know what will happen to you... O-Ophelia... Probably not a good time for this, but I just realized her neck is... extremely long. Look at that! You could fit a second head between her head and her shoulders! Sherlock? Don't you think about sticking your head in there, you know what the priest told you. Do you want to end up like Holmes? 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh, okay. Just... throw wild accusations at a person and then make no effort to explain yourself. Yeah, that works. And that's IRL yikes 3 from this update. I'm tempted to play 3H entirely to avoid this. (I've been kinda consumed by this shitstorm) 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Tha'sss why I'm worried 'bout her, y'know? I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if she wound up married to some no-good sleazeball... 20/10. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh, don't feel so bad about the bar. Sometimes it's to badmouth you. (Tianna has to hide somewhere.) 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh dear Arran and the gang really should be hearing about this shit and asking if they're really with the baddies already. This part is honestly depressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benice Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Spoiler On 7/10/2020 at 2:24 PM, Saint Rubenio said: Perceval: Reveal hidden contents On 7/7/2020 at 4:22 PM, Dayni said: Reveal hidden contents With the way posting on SF works sometimes I wonder. I mean, I've been writing stuff in spoilers for a couple years now. Yeesh it wasn't. True though it may be, it really wasn't. Why, you...! That's the most backhanded agreeance I have ever seen! It is one of those things to consider, hence why I'd be slow to do it while the console's relevant. As to version updates, those who are involved in CFW tend to be pretty quick at getting updates for updates to the console. I'm not sure what the current situation is on that, I'd recommend confirming that's the case before starting regardless. Heck, the optimal thing is to have two consoles, one for modding and one for legit purposes. So inconvenient... I'm really not remembering it being that bad for combat arts anyways. Gambits on the other hand....... hoo wee. Gambits were also bad, and they had the added perk that battalions are extremely wonky visually. I guess I just got too wound up in trying to respond to your love for it by going "BuT WhAT AboOt dIS BaD ThiNG?" forgetting that 1. it was just rude, 2. maybe that was just being a bit bitter because at least you're not still on the fence Hey, don't beat yourself up over it. I'd be lying if I said I don't understand, I mean, I feel the exact same way about Three Houses. I see everyone worshipping the ground that game walks on, and all I can think of is how much I'd like to love it so much, but I can't because of the myriad flaws it has. In this case, I'm the worshipper that drives others up a wall! (keeping in mind I don't count Berwick as an explicit FE game because of all the things Berwick does differently)? I hear you. This game has enough differences that it can't really be called "bootleg FE" like TRS. But where else am I going to talk about it? Dammit, I wasn't hoping you wouldn't but I picked too obvious a line. To be fair, I didn't know that one either. This one was just specific enough that a quick google search led me to the fight. The movie it's a part of is still a funny watch though. Oh yeah, it's plenty famous. As with most movies, I've heard of it, I've watched clips and enjoyed them, but I never had the time to sit down and watch it. Aka reason 1 Berwick's fucked. Yes. Oh boy, it's fog of war! Even if it's clever fog of war, I still predict this won't end well. Well... Could've ended pretty awfully there, with Sherlock and Lebrus... (Speaking of, does 3H have enemies? I... I would imagine so? I mean, I know over half the playtime is spent playing minigames and partaking in VN-styled dates, but there are still some battles here and there that have enemies in 'em... I suppose you'll confirm no and I don't think so either but I have to ask something to myself: How would they go about fixing enemy AI behaviour so that they didn't have to cheat?)If you meant to say if 3H has clever FoW like this game, the answer is nope. It's as bad as everywhere else in the FE series. And I mean, the enemy following the same rules as the player sounds like a start. That shouldn't be so difficult. It's a wonder they haven't ripped it off BWS in the 15 years this game has existed for. Generic unaware enemy generals. The stuff midgame's made of. Eyup. I mean, that's something that could be cool to see expanded on. Shame this is all we'll get I suppose. Well, it was a neat bit of worldbuilding, but the game has other priorities. I mean considering he's fictional that's obvious. I know you don't mean that, but still. Come now... ahahahah... Seriously, where was skill in this? It meant weapon skill didn't it? Yes. Dammit I am still not over it. No? I found it remarkably easy to get over. I've had worse. Now that I've finally found the source, I can't understand why you keep giving Marcel his lines. They can't scratch Marcel most of the time, much less cut off one of his limbs. STRONKBOW STRONKWAIFU-- Ahem, I mean... Yes! I mean, it can be nice in say, a fog of war map where it'll prevent an enemy from hitting you from behind if they can see you and and you can't. Unless that's not possible. But as he can move from place to place faster than Sylvis he could be good to temporarily set them up for cavs or units falling behind as well. A second overwatch is nice. Hey, I said it isn't "that good", not that it's useless or bad. Overwatch always has its uses, and Sherlock can definitely get some shit done with it, he's just not as good at it as Sylvis. To use a name like Gilgamesh for this disappoints me. Agreed. It's like they went out of their way to find the most boring, bland, unimportant, useless miniboss just so they could give him the best name in the entire game. At least he doesn't really have to be caught. He doesn't even have a general shield. There's virtually no reason to try it. Turns out Kaga decided to actually use the fourth faction that first came in Genealogy. Once. Not really, we've seen it before. For example, the bandits from that one map where we were recapturing Imperial prisoners were yellow. The Imperials from Thaddy's first map were yellow. Man Golden Deer getting shafted here and in Heroes? Shocker /s They were doomed from the start. Perceval.jpg. Yes. Sadly, yes. RULES OF NATURE INTENSIFIES Ahahahah... All of MGR's music is amazing, but I am fonder of A Stranger I Remain. And, of course, NANOMACHINES: The Theme. That is one way to just insult him. Not even an actual mage for it. Not that there was one in range. Owen was too far away, and he'd have been unreliable anyway. I did miss the not Rules of Nature one. That much is true. Still no ideas for Nanomachines though. In retrospect, I realized Nielsen surviving Reese's ripper mode was the perfect opportunity for... I remember it too. Having two faces is a new one though. Xane, is that you? Narcus, maybe? The horse looks like it's coughing from the poison. Call up BSPCA now, this monster has to be arrested. He will get arrested all right. Unless the RNG doesn't cooperate. Then he'll die. Completely irrelevant that he got hit again. I mean, it's Arturo. Who cares? ...I care, he's a good unit. Please don't die...! On 7/7/2020 at 5:55 PM, This boi uses Nino said: Reveal hidden contents Oh... I thought I had seen it or read it somewhere on the SCP wiki but I wasn't sure. I'd imagine SCP factories would need this kind of warning too, and doubly so. Oh yeah, that's cruel. Very. You should've seen the last LP, it was a mess. Oh so it turns uot FE7 was inspired from FE7's slow gameplay. Good to know 😛 Truthfully, I might one day. It's better than FE7. In my opinion, of course. It's a bit of a mixed bag, with high highs and low lows, but I believe the good in it is enough to compensate for the garbage. That's just me, though. Yeah I probably am, it's just your LPs are so thorough and long that IDK, it gave me that impression of being high-quality. Which it may still be, I mean you do put more effort into your LPs than most people, not that that's a bad thing for other people to not spend 3 hours with every update. Hey, I put effort into my LPs because I have the time for it. Others aren't so fortunate. I just hope I one day get to try one. Come to Spain. Big chunk of land at the end of Europe, you can't miss it. Heh, I predicted the in America reference. This is the FE fandom. You cannot say the word "trap" in this place without somebody following suit with "in America!" I will still chastise people for wasting their money, free to play is one thing but it's so stupidly retarded to pay for them. Specially when they are on the internet and if you really want to honk the horn, you've got the internet for that for better stuff I imagine. Eh, people can do whatever they want with their money. I don't approve, but it's not my place to force people to do what I say. Still an incel trait to be so shy around girls but who am I to judge? Many people are shy without being incels. But coupled with what he said, maybe he's just a well-intended dummy, I shouldn't judge. He does save her whenever he dies, so that's good, at least. Lol.inb4 Ruben says I can't boss him around to laugh out loud and instead laughs in softly. Which is not necessarily part of my trap but not because I was trying. Why do you make me out to be a stuck-up jerk every time? I may not be Gandhi with his 1-2=9 nuking love. But I have a 10 for nuking and conquering anyways mwahahaha! Too late, I just got a culture victory. Now you can't nuke me, I have the power of tourism. Yeah sth like "Pengaius, St. Rubenio and Benice commented on "The league shall fall if I'm in control"" blah blah, I guess it's more when someone replies to a previous update and I ignore them, and then you post the next update which is the coupled together if I got no new notifications and so your pfp doesn't appear. That's a bit wonky. Engaging commentary from me ha! Of course? Of course. How so? Wouldn't Sienna just be smacked in the head under the guise of "be quiet, woman"? Given her way with words, I imagine she'd be more likely to send Volcens crying to his room than anything else. "Volcens! It's simple history! Pay closer attention to your own family's legacy!" -"I'll have you executed for speaking up against me" "It's common sense... well, bye bye!" *teleports away* Uh... Yes. I can totally see this. Volcens would definitely react like that. Lol, that's so stupid, what a cry baby. You're only realizing now? Well duh lol. I want shit-eating boomer to save the Berwick League. Sadly, the one chapter where the portrait is actually used requires Christine to be alive, and well, if you take a look at the death counter... ...On second thought, he's a creep who comments on Christine's "child-birthing hips", so perhaps it's best that she won't have to sit through that. Yay, I achieved comedy! Very conglaturation !!! I realized that since he first opened his damn mouth. It's really not difficult to notice. Small pp? I mean maybe that's why he seethes so hard. I mean, all that armor has to be compensating for something. Oh right, god damn it. Yeah... We're kinda fucked now. Bernstol's still there, tho, so that's great! Bernstol is Reese's father, if you don't know. People like calling him Bernstool for some reason. Figured as much, that they were durable that is. +2 speed is epic. Not as epic as you'd think. Speed is kinda bad in this game. But it has its uses. Ah of course, this simple trick will make you millions of dollars. It's so dumb. We call it the "onii-chan" trick. *Sad boi noises* *Sadder boi noises* Why holy-bearded man? Sorry. I couldn't resist. Pretty much. It's so stupid, but the sheer amount that this mental health problem around the world gets ignored due to other idiotic shit like Trump's newest tweet he took while taking a dump receives is just sad. No man, just boys being boys. Never mind the fact that they can't even tell anyone because then nobody does anything and the bullies beat the crap out of them. Absolutely wonderful. Pretty neat, but not as good as Knight's Pride! I can respect that sentiment. He's searching for Excalibur, he thought he would find it here. Ahahahahahahah... His sprite does look very cool. It reminds me of Harken's official art. I just love the idle stance. So unnecessary, but so cool. Imagine getting a waifu with good stats... damn it Rebecca! You can't really compare Sylvis to Rebecca. Sylvis could have Rebecca's base stats and she'd still be 10 times better simply because of all the other stuff she can do. I mean how hard is it? Don't you have a special key attached to screenshots? Yes, but there's a reason I've considered multiple times changing the thread title to "Ruben's Grandpa Reflexes" Oof, well something is better than nothing, Yes, that's true. "Wanna know why I keep blocking? Nanomachines son!" ... yeah ok maybe not. Yeah, that would've worked with a bit of tweaking. Oh no how terrifying..? It's just butterflies leaving some powder thing. And then Arturo loses a third of his health and gains poison. It's pretty damn scary, all right. Especially since poison in this game can take 10 HP in a single turn. Not sure what the exact limit is, but the pace at which poisoned units lose health is awful.

But Ashe or Bernadetta can both do it with ease. Ignatz is better off as a mage, anyway. I know, it's not his most optimal path, but look at him! He looks like he was born to be a mage! He even has dorky glasses! How can that be an archer? He can't even see properly! Kefka intensifies. Turns out he was dancing mad because he had sand in his boots and couldn't get them off. To be honest, her second death was one of the worst written stories I've seen. But then again... it's not doing them any favors when they bring her back in a way that basically makes her guilty of genocide. Goodness... Sankuro's needless aggression to everyone is funnier than it should be just because it reminds me of the "I'll kill you" threats here. Shame he's kind of a scumbag. ...Should I be worried a scumbag reminds you of me? I didn't mean the face. Not that anyone could tell with all the hair on it. Well, you should try the face too. It's a fun face to make. No, I'm not insane, why? 12 seconds. That's... longer than I would've expected from you. Why does Marth have Squidward's nose? Because my artistic talent is, uh... subpar. Yeah. All I'd need to do is take the quote, put it with another quote from the TRS LP.... and it's done. Shame I'm too lazy. But you aren't spanish! You don't have paella to eat and bullfighting to watch! You've no excuses, none at all! It's just they're both morons with a warped/paranoid worldview that resulted in needless deaths. I know that could be applied to a lot of people/characters. But in this case I think it's justified. To be honest, I'd hesitate to compare them. Much as Volcens is a horrendous person, he hasn't murdered anyone with his own hands. Yet. Not to mention, he seems willing to listen to Roswick on occassion. It's just, well, Herman's quick to intercede. Plot twist being that I made up Shokkoth for the context of the comment... using the name of a Golem from an old Conan story because believable demon name. All because I wanted to play off the "sin" in the butterman comments. Remarkable how close he came to the truth. Oh wow. You are devious! "No water" I know what you mean, but the picture makes it funnier than it should be. I mean, I guess there technically is water in the map, but I don't think Axel would get much out of swimming into the ocean. Not to be confused with Vesteria Saga. Pffffft... That should've been Vester's portrait filename. Today on funny out of context quotes. Amazing the difference a qualifier or two make. Poor, poor Owen... As if his life wasn't shit enough as it is. Rub it in why don't you. I will. Heheheheh... I should hope not. It'd be weird him talking to himself in the third person. (Can I ever resist) I like how I made a simple comment sharing a small bit of trivia with you all, and everyone's first instinct is to rife on my wording. Adrenalin is a hell of a drug. Quite amazing, what it can do. The bane of LP'ing. Unexpected potentially fatal situations. Not fun. No, actually, it is fun, otherwise I wouldn't do it. But still, I can tell you my heart pounds hard when I'm playing Berwick for the LP. Maybe he heard tales of Axel... and fled assuming anyone checking houses with Sinon must be him? To be fair, this is the first time since chapter 3 that anyone other than Axel has checked a house. If I learn from your example I'll get even more undeserved praise than I already do. Brilliant. Follow my lead. I know what I'm doing. Believe me! Shocking. If only he hadn't ruined it afterwards... Nielsen's about to be blown away. Hah! Not to forget the power of the elements. Also, it obviously was surprising for him if you had the element of surprise. Or else you wouldn't have. He had the element of surprise and the element of the elements against him. He was doomed from the start. I know that feeling. Everyone else living on cliffhangers that are set in stone to you. To be honest, I do feel great satisfaction when people expect the worst from me, yet I know that quite the opposite actually happened. Chapter 5 intensifies On 7/10/2020 at 11:32 AM, BrightBow said: Ah crap. Oh goody, you're back! You also missed the announcement that warnings will be handed out to people who reply with long posts and don't put them in spoilers. If it's not too late, please keep in mind that you have to do that now. I missed the "Beard of Betrayal" sidequest. Or "Beardtrayal". I don't remember the exact title.Don't worry, I made sure that nobody missed the fact that Ward was with an Imperial squad that time. A bit late for that considering they already took the ground from underneath you all the way from Leia to the Lowlands. Not to mention Bornia. This whole conversation sounds all kinds of strange. Treating basic strategies like they are some sort of rare superpower.It's like Ace Attorney. Edgeworth's lawyer superpower: BASIC LOGIC And she has such a good strength growth too. Well, by the standards of this game at least.RNG-screwed Sylvis sounds like a cruel joke. But I'm used to those by now. The Crossbow guy can actually be provoked from below the hill. Not sure if he actually comes down there since I usually just Rossweisse him from 3 range. The archer doesn't seem to move at all. The rest I guess has the usual "stay on territory" behavior and won't cross the cliffs. Even though Ward has Climber and could do it just fine.I can confirm that he comes down. ...Wait, what? You can have the Rossweisse already? I've been waiting on it for ages! What happened, did I miss the material!? I'm on my 3rd run and I never even noticed there were throwing axes with build in crit in this game.Right? It's just fascinating, the little things in this game. Why not throw away the Imperial Axe? You can throw away personal possessions, you just can't trade or sell them....Aaahhh, yes. I missed being rightfully criticized for my every small blunder, and offering lame jokes as a poor attempt to reflect them, because I can never come up with a defense, given that you're almost always right. Owen is good, though. I'll die on this hill if I have to. Because of course there are enemies with Deathmatch and a Miracle Charm. Don't want players to think they found a clever exploit by giving a Miracle Charm to Volo.Kaga is always one step ahead when it comes to being a dickhead. Good luck with that. You can't Deathmatch someone who can't counter. So unless Sylvis switches to a Crossbow, you have to dish out medium sized beat downs like the rest.And, well, there's also the fact he couldn't reach her. Says the guy who bought the Zanbato with it's even worse accuracy and durability. Also 40 accuracy is the same as the Longspear that you love so much....Okay, I may've made a mistake or two. But when I kill a horse with it and save someone from getting lanced, you'll be eating those words! ...... ...don't count on it, though. Don't want you starving to death waiting for the word meal. The Scimitar is a crafting material for the Harperion. Pretty nifty sword. Hits twice with great power, accuracy and a ton of crit. Scimitars won't ever show up in the shop in Navaron. Okay, I fucked up! I get it! I also generally like buying the Saber here, since it's a weapon that's pretty much equal to the Longsword, and I find the supply of Longswords and Broadswords can easily run out. Oh, please... I made all the wrong choices, didn't I? Unsurprisingly, but... The accuracy might be trash, but he does have Supporter.Sheesh... Evil Derrick would have been in Christine's sidequest, so we are not going to see that one.Dang it, that's true! Oh, well. We did see Goebbels, at least. He was just Derrick with his head tilted to the side. And, y'know, called Goebbels. Now you know it's not actually Ward. Ward can't be injured.The fact that we beat him is proof enough that it couldn't be Ward. Famous last words.Bernard should've known better than to expect anything from Volcens. We do super meet him next chapter. Those crazy eyes are interesting, though. Maybe he is Webber's son? I really do have to wonder why Kaga was so fond of the "psychotic old fart" design. You don't think it's your place to speak on such issues? Weren't you the one who pushed his majesty to summon... I AM JUST A HUMBLE SERVANT OF HIS MAJESTY.Honestly though, I remember there being a moment that's almost exactly this. It's hilarious. It could be that Mordias' thought it was too late to accuse the empire of the murder. Revealing the true cause after years of civil war might cause the whole mess to start all over again, considering it meant admitting that the rebels were correct about Arless' innocence the whole time.That much is true... So instead, he murdered the Apostle, her husband, his whole cadre of knights, and indirectly himself by starting the war with Raze that eventually took his life. ...Mordias really was the worst, huh... Maybe should have asked Warrenheit about the limits of Volcens' stupidity or lack thereof.I just like how you reacted to this line twice. I am quite impressed by your sense of dramatic timing. Thank you, Lord Bernard. We have been waiting in front of the door for 20 minutes to get our entrance just right. Pffffff... The image of this is just hilarious. Any second now... Any second now, men... He's gonna drop the red flag any second now... ...but my home is still occupied by the empire... Being Sienna is suffering. You do realize we can't possible win this war if you remove every person who is more competent then you are? I love you, dear brother, but you must accept that this is a very low bar that a LOT of people pass. I am very secure in myself. These two together are berwicksaga.txt in its purest form. ...VERY secure in myself.Ahahahahahahah... Ahhh, I still despise that line. I swear, Sienna's biggest mistake in this game was not pushing him off the balcony when he was standing so close to the border. Yeah. That one is pretty strange considering how far away from Navaron the Sinnon Knights can operate within a mere month. Maybe Aethin mistook 6 weeks for 6 months or something.Could be. The 6 months thing always sounded a bit sketchy. Well, no matter. Perhaps Bernard just had a better horse than Reese. Performers? The kind of people who drug young girls and train them as dancers? What? No. We haven't been doing that for years. Turns out offering to pay people makes them want to work for you without any need for abduction, intimidation or torture. It's even cheaper then bribing tavern owners to drug their customers for you. Indeed. Because of that I'm still sitting on dozens of bottles that I have no idea what to do with. Bwahahahahahahahahah... Ahh, I'm glad they've learned, after all these years since TRS. I mean, that's literally why she is in the library right now.She better put that training to good use and start getting magic, then, if she doesn't want to die. It's a really nice hill for story events. Sure would be a shame if something were to happen to it.Heheheheheh... Ahhh... I guess that's why Aethin referred to Maris as female in the mission description.In the knit cap's description too, I just stealthily corrected it. Actually Thaddy takes priority for this one. So you can simply chose who gets the quest by hiring Thaddy before or after accepting it.Oh. Shows how much I've used Thaddy, hahah. The happiness needed for being recruited in chapter 8 is merely 1. You only need 10 happiness to recruit him earlier then that.I was wondering if I could recruit him before then by any chance. That's a nice line. Too bad you have to die.He's not the most forgettable dude, that much is true. Not to mention the archer with Battle Cry hiding in the dark.Yeah, I... I discovered that one the hard way. Love that smear during his attack. Looks fantastic in motion.Agreed. It's a great animation. With how much she is showing off, you'd think she would actually be good at using crossbows. Well-- Well, she is most certainly the best living Crossbow user of this party, at least.Why, you piece of...! Stop it! Let her rest already! Sending Sherpa all alone into an enemy fort while his avoid is reduced to 0 by his Greatsword.Yeah, uh... thanks for the reminder. Especially since his gear and skills are set up to waste your turns. Shieldfaire ensures he blocks virtually every hit. And the Iron Shield has B durability, so it takes a while to break through that. He's a nasty reminder that in the future you can't expect to beat these guys by just hitting them with physical attacks. And then he just got Percy'd in one turn.

Hanes Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Spoiler 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Well, it's pretty good nonetheless. You probably know more geography than I do. I can defend myself when it comes to Europe, but ask me the American states and I'm just completely lost. I know California's to the west coast and New York and Washington are probably to the east? I think? Maybe? Also, Texas is in the south. But that's about it. I could manage when it comes to Africa... but I think I can't visualize it without a map, I can do Europe without looking at a map, but with Africa I would fare better if I see a blank map of Africa with borders. Let's see (without using a map), to the south of Spain is Morocco and to it's right there's Libya and then Tunisia, there/s two countries betwen it and Egypt then which is to the most north-west... let's just go all the way down because this isn't very good. Where South Africa is, a bit to it's right there's a coral reef looking country called Mozambique and I can't without a map... I do need to practice more when it comes to other continents, the United States' states is a dumb thing to learn anyway, because I'm not learning the states of Italy either so why should I for the US? But yes California to the west, NY and Washington to the east and Texas to the south. Central america is also confusing. 5 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: I just want this thing to catch on, since you did say once I shouldn't boss you around. Well, you failed.Inb4 Ruben...

He's an empty husk in times of peace! How did Lynette ever fall for this doofus...? Though I suppose I shouldn't be so surprised. A beautiful woman like her must have more than a few gentleman callers vying for her hand... ("More than a few"?) I'm glad you're both so interested, but where has Tianna gone to? I still haven't seen her yet... Oh, I'm sorry. Unfortunately, Tianna had some urgent business to attend to. I imagine she will return tomorrow, although... Oh, and after this absolutely unbelievable turn of events, Reese fails to see through Tianna's blatantly obvious bullshit excuse to disappear just in time to avoid Vester. Though, in all fairness, I could totally believe that Reese has no idea when Tianna's mom's birthday really takes place. Or that she has a mother. Sheesh... No wonder he so easily fell for Barselphon's crap. Well this is just awkward and I agree, how is Reese so dumb? Lynette must have fell for him because srpg romance. 5 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...L-Lord Reese, you said it yourself, they're engaged... And yet, Tianna always claimed to be a non-combatant.
