Armagon Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) Oh yeah, I remember something. @Interdimensional Observer about Vanillaware's food-related dialogue in their games and stuff, this is a trophy you can get pretty easily in 13 Sentinels. I'm sure I can mention this tidbit but each chapter of Iori's story starts with her getting something to eat on the way back from school and you can pick which to get (although you have to get all eventually so it's not like this trophy is missable). I don't actually care about trophies btw, I think that stuff is lame. But I did share this because I remember what you said about Vanillaware's love for food. 11 minutes ago, Dayni said: Just because of the names being similar? Yeah, the names are pretty similar so anybody who hasn't heard of it might think it's a bootleg. I know I did when I first found out about Digimon.

Sooks Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 WAITWAITWAIT @Saint Rubenio Spoiler I’m supposed to take care of Basil’s flowers until I find him, right? Is that the thing? I heard it about it close to when you thought I did and like you said, I completely forgot about it. However, I remembered it and did it and I’ll probably do it again before whenever it looks like I’ll see Basil again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Dayni said: "69% of people in Ireland fully vaccinated." Nice. A country a little larger than the state of Maine, with a population a little less than Indiana, and a population destiny comparable to North Carolina. Good. 1% off the possible minimum for "herd immunity", which given Covid will be sticking around for years to come b/c poor countries will never afford full vaccination, is more like "herd protection". But still, better than not having it. 1 hour ago, Armagon said: Oh yeah, I remember something. @Interdimensional Observer about Vanillaware's food-related dialogue in their games and stuff, this is a trophy you can get pretty easily in 13 Sentinels.

Same on the trophies/achievements matter. As for the Vanillaware food love, I'm basing it on the two games of their's that I've played. They like food so it seems.: I don't think they had to include this, but they did. And, you kinda have to sit through it (you can fast forward), since food, without explanation, provides Spirit, necessary along with the Soul earned from killing enemies for the forging of new demon blades.

Well, achievements can be made hidden, so you can only see them if you have them. Smart devs use that for the more spoilerific cheevos.

Interdimensional Observer Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 43 minutes ago, Armagon said: ...maybe Vanillaware's name is intentional haha. Wikipedia cites a Nintendo Power interview from an issue not archived online (I remember someone tried to post scans of them all, but Big N took 'em down😑) for the origins of the company's name. If I hadn't discarded most of my NP issues, I'd actually be able to check for it myself, and now it bothers me to think I once saw the interview, but never paid any attention to it. All I can remember from the those Power Profiles interviews, is that Hideo Kojima thought art cannot be interactive, and hence video games are not art (says a dude who goes all artsy). *Ahem* The reason George Kamitani (the company's founder) gave for the name, was "to evoke the enduring and timeless popularity of vanilla flavoring in ice cream".🍨 And yet, I don't remember seeing any in either Muramasa (understandable, feudal Japan setting), or the European fantasy of Odin Sphere, it looks like it would've been too ordinary for its menu.

I had to press all the statements, and then go back, press one of them in particular again, and for no reason at all something had changed and then you can use it to pursue. But only if you run through the lines slowly, if you go at full speed the game just skips over it and doesn't show it. Nice, thank you very much. What part of the game was this again? The only time I had much trouble in GAA1 was during the fifth case so I wonder what you had trouble with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
