null Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Made some more progress with Tsushima and it looks like I'll be finishing Act 1 pretty soon. Also made some headway with FFXIV. Joined my first group quest. I forgot how much I enjoy MMO gameplay, tbh. Good to get back into it, especially when it's so much content for free. And on top of that, the MH digital event was hype. Good day for gaming all around, lol. 13 minutes ago, Sooks said: wasn’t here that much today because I was having some good time with the family! Nice. Good to hear.

I find it to be a particularly boring series in a genre that I already find generally boring save for a few select games. That's about it. Last time I touched the series was like, two years ago. I played Leaf Green for a friend, got up to Giovanni and never played it again. Well, I do have one fond memory of Pokemon. When I was like 10 I beat Emerald by soloing the entire game with my starter Gecko because I didn't know how to play. I must've grinded like crazy, because the game bent over backwards with ease, until the league, which was impossible. Then I went to this tower place, captured the legendary dragon and abused it to win. The end. Oh, and I used hacking tools that I could barely comprehend to spawn pokemons exclusive to the other versions of the game, just so they could sit in my PC and do nothing. Not before I tried using codes to capture a trainer's pokemon, though. That... didn't end so well, I had to scour the internet for a tutorial on how to remove bad eggs. Fun memories, all in all. This might sound a bit random, but I get the funny feeling you might like a six Smeargle challenge. Its a Pokemon challenge run where as early into the game as you can you hack the game so you can get the six Smeargle you will use for the rest of the run. From then on you can only use the Smeargle in battle (although you can still have HM slaves in your party to progress through the game). All of Smeargles stats are terrible except speed, but what makes the run so interesting is Smeargle's personal move, Sketch. Sketch lets your Smeargle permanently learn the last move an enemy used, and Smeargle learns Sketch again every 10 levels (and Smeargles can't learn any other moves from TMs or level-ups), so it becomes all about finding way to steal moves good enough that your team of terrible painter dogs can overcome their terrible stats with crafty strategies.

So my question is this: can i just off him here and now and save myself the trouble? Spoiler I would reccomend using him as he makes later chapters much more bearable for a first timer, but considering you use save states, I suppose you can do what you want. As to the other part, I'm not sure! Xd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightcosmo Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Berwick puts you through some pretty nutty stuff later on. And I loved (mostly) every second of it! The only part i didn't like was the Ice Dragon chapter. That was stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler ...never tried killing Zeek myself, so I don't know what that would lead to. He is however the boss on two maps, his absence would be really noticed. Maybe he still shows up somehow. Kate's temporary absence would be a lot more difficult to explain, considering she goes after him because of the emotional bond made while he is around. In case Kate still leaves, which happens very late, and her re-recruitment chapter is either the third or second to last, depending who you placed her with. This said, she is in a prison, at least on Runan's side of the final split, I haven't put her with Holmes at that point, the Revenants with her are very weak, she can last for turns on end even at base level. Witches exist, but I don't think they'll warp into her cell. You might still want to train Kate a bit, which shouldn't be an issue at a certain point. I'd train Sasha, Kate's sole re-recruiter, more, which shouldn't be an issue if you get her to level 10 as a Princess for Paragon. Make sure to talk to Mel with Sasha in Chapter 6 for Sasha's special promotion item, you don't want to miss it, just don't actually use it until Sasha learns Paragon.

Armagon Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 The Counterattack Smash remix has grown on me although it will never top the original.

But I'm also told that this game isn't really that hard in the first place barring some occasional stupid shit.

Armagon Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 TearRing maps seem bite-sized, at least these early maps.

Armagon Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I really wish Kaga chose literally any other name because now i'm gonna think that Julia's father is a green alien dwarf. Anyways the Weltall arc is done i think. Next play sessions will be on Baten Kaitos and Ys Origin for a bit, want to make more progress on those games. 19 minutes ago, Benice said: So...

I can definitely say i've enjoyed these first seven chapters more than my entire time playing Genealogy, Thracia and Vestaria combined. Only real criticism i have so far is that unit rearrangement doesn't exist but it doesn't seem to be as big of an issue like in Thracia. Heck, your units aren't even on the map during the prep screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem is, you can't see it. You hve to start the map and take note of the units' placement first, then reload. A bit wonky, but certainly less than, say, Mystery.

In Ch.7, Bratz was right below Mel on the list yet he showed up behind the gate. Meanwhile, Julia was like two slots below Mel but she shows up in front of the gate. That said, I haven't been in a situation where I'd go "damn, I wish I could rearrange". With the maps being bite-sized, it's not that big of an issue.

It wouldn't surprise me if some Youtuber played that game and his fans went ahead and dropped a bunch of ironic positive reviews on the game. I remember one time a movie reviewer made a video on a god-awful movie called Love on a Leash. The movie had no reviews on IMDb to begin with, but after that guy posted his video, it got a perfect 10/10 rating and ended up in IMDb's top 100 list for a short time. If I'm not mistaken, the guy got banned from IMDb after that. All in all, hilarious. I imagine something similar must've happened with that game you speak of.

I kinda hope that is the case, cause that gameplay footage looked like it had a lot of hilariously terrible game potential, especially with the right LPer. Not sure if it hits the incredibly high bar of Lucahjin's LP of America's Next Top Model on the Wii, but potential none the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
