Acacia Sgt Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Now I'm reminded I should finally get her once I reach Ch11 of VS. But I still need to start Ch10. Well, between the move and then the vaccine... not enough time lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The little Hoshidian girl? The little "did I mention I am several hundred years old" girl? The one wearing a stripper version of a bridal goon? The one who is actually supposed to be a murderhappy sociopath? I paired him with the regular-looking maid. Funnily enough, he acted kinda like a terrible father with her, too. She was like "I wanna be a maid even though I'm clumsy!" and throughout the entire support he responded with "no, you're terrible at it, you must instead be a military commander." Yeah, way to go, Leo, just tell her she can never realize her dreams to her face, that's very nice. Fucking asshole just sucks. Why would anyone marry him? He's the most unlikeable character in the goddamned game. If anything he deserves Peri. Forrest doesn't, though. 23 minutes ago, lightcosmo said: Huh, If you say so. Hey, whatever works.

Besides the street smarts you would expect her to have, she also has extreme trust issues. By her own admission, she is scared of Xeno, probably the nicest guy in Liberia. There is just no way that she would have trusted slaver guy of all people. Kaga wanted underage sexual assault in his game so badly he made her break character for it. And even if you don't let her, not to worry, Lyria's right there. Fuck, I like TRS but Kaga was out of his mind.

Yeah, I got this. *cracks knuckles* 36 minutes ago, Maof06 said: What's this "Banner Saga" looks like? Banner Saga is a trilogy (The Banner Saga, Banner Saga 2 and Banner Saga 3) of SRPGs for PC, PS4, Switch and Xbox One. They’re about a world loosely inspired by Norse mythology facing what looks like the end of the world, and you must successfully lead several caravans during these trying times. When you first start a new save, the game will tell you that your choices matter, and unlike most games that say that, they do definitely matter. From minor events that come up randomly throughout the story, which will just affect your resources or how many clansmen/fighters/varl (a race of giants) are in your caravan, to story events that can get playable characters killed off permanently, to choices that literally decide the fate of the world at the end of the trilogy (and some of these minor events do play a role in whether or not you ruin the world at the end of the trilogy), so choose carefully! But in between those choices is, of course, the SRPG gameplay. It’s a little different than the standard SRPG gameplay, but very good, in my opinion. You decide the turn order of your party (up to six units) at the beginning of each battle, and the enemy also has a set turn order. The game will always alternate between enemy and player units every turn, unless either of you only has one unit left. Once you’re actually moving your characters, you deal with armor and strength. Strength serves as both damage dealt and HP, if a character gets their strength dropped to zero they’re defeated for that battle, but strength is protected by your armor stat. The more armor a unit has, the less damage they will take, but you can do damage to an enemy’s armor first, increasing the amount of strength damage you do. You have to think carefully about your decisions in battle too, because unlike many games, you can lose battles but the story will progress and acknowledge it, there is only one battle in the entire trilogy that you absolutely have to win. Such losses can result in playable characters dying or failure to accomplish a goal that would have gotten you more resources, people in your caravan, etc. And you probably will lose at least a few times, because the standard normal difficulty is excellent, tough but fair. It’s elevated by a beautiful, hand drawn art-style, a pretty good, well written story, and really likable characters. I couldn’t recommend it more.
