Just gonna let you know, the Slime Isle is a real thing. You may have encountered Slime Queen before, and that's the Slime Island. I'm going off of memory here so I'm not 100% of all the encounters, but I'm sure there's a Slime Queen there.

There are two stories I've heard. I'm not sure which one is correct: 1) The Iwa Kiri Maru is supposed to be weakened after cutting the rocks. 2) The weakened Iwa Kiri Maru was a previous version of the sword, and the coding at that point wasn't updated. Both don't explain why you can pick up multiples of the Iwa Kiri Maru before cutting the rocks (I forget if you can do that afterward).

I do want to point out that there was a previous game to this. Romancing Walker is a sequel to this game, though I've forgotten the title. Flare is the main character in this game, and does not have the Dragon Gene until later on. I'm not sure how much of this game you want spoiled, but there ya go. There's actually a game on Rm2k maker for this, though not translated in English and NOT on any PC variants.

Polsy posted:Yeah, I can't find anything at all (at least, on Google) about the previous game, beyond a single page which names that as the previous game. Even then I would've assumed that was just someone misinterpreting the backstory as the premise of a previous game if nobody had posted to the contrary. So far, what I remember that isn't spoilers is this: The game was made on the PS1 RPG Maker, and was recreated in part on PC before being completely scrapped. Flare is the main character, but wasn't playable at the beginning. The farther we go along, the more I'll have information as spoilers become despoiled.

Tin Tim posted:The tides of the writing are really weird if you examine them. The serious parts of this game are honestly okay, and would fly in any other more serious JRPG. I have mentioned Latyss' sidestory a couple of times now, and I honestly like it. It isn't too far away, and I'll be glad when we reach it. But I just can't shake the feeling that Flare started with a serious story idea and then rubbed Anime all over it. Or the other way around. I'm actually going to go into this in more detail later one once a few more characters and story are revealed. But while I may not have talked with Flare, I have a pretty good idea about why RW was made the way it was, based on what I played and saw from SD. Tin Tim posted:One thing that's kinda weird about this weapon, is that I'm fairly sure that it also affects Ryle's skills. Like, you'd expect it to only work with his default attack, but I had an uncanny amount of misses when using skills while wielding the sword. Could be my personal perception, but nothing is impossible with this game. In RPG Maker, IIRC, some skills use the weapon accuracy, some use a set accuracy. I don't have the game on my main computer anymore so I can't check. Tin Tim posted:I appreciate that! Just drop the You betcha.

Ah, yes,  time. Well, very limited amounts anyways. I typed up a big part of it and had to delete it because it contained spoilers I didn't realize were spoilers at the time.Anyways, Rune Disaster's name is less of a name and more of a title. The word pun of Rune is indeed Ruin, because it was thought that this sword contained a demonic power and would destroy the world. The title-giver, and more backstory on this sword requires quite a bit more story, as we won't encounter the persons involved for over fifteen updates or so. Something like "ぢざーすた Rune," IIRC.

You're probably right, Polsy. I was trying to remember and though the word Ruin was in English for some reason. Also, failure to use Katakana when attempting to spell out Disaster. Hence the IIRC.

Ah yes, the upcoming chapter. It's going to be awesome, as it's one of my favorite parts about the game. As was mentioned in the update, Flare refused the title because she lost a few of her loved ones. That's not entirely accurate, but it is representative. Specifically, Flare didn't want to be recognized as a Savior of the World if she couldn't protect the ones close to her. I hope that's being vague enough without spoiling anything yet. --- As for El Metal...I wish there was a bit more liberty given to it. Elven Metal, for instance, would have been quite a bit better. --- The overall lower quality of English used in the translation, IIRC, is due to rm2kfanboy not being a native English speaker? Like I mentioned, it's been a long while since I even played this series and participated in what little fanbase there was for it at that time. Also, my vote is for Caris Burnfist. Hayami stops Physical Traps, Orubia stops Magical Traps, but nothing beats a good Hidden Crash. Edit: <spoiler> Now that I think about it, there's actually a reason that the game doesn't explicitly say (but implies) regarding Brad's dislike of the girls helping him. He's JEALOUS. thenightsshadow fucked around with this message at 07:55 on Jul 1, 2013 |

It was the Warp Spell that made me go, "I don't really care how dumb the game is, I'm finishing this game." I like that brand of humor. time. While I can't divulge yet who Latyss' human father is, he had connections to Flare, though not in an obvious way. This will be more apparent as time goes on, so I'll come back to this point later.

time! Alright, so now Fina's dad's name is revealed. Rain Delstar. He was the fourth party member you got in the game, and quite plainly, one of the insanely adaptive ones. He tended to learn new spells during battles. He would always take a spell that he knew and change some attributes about it to better fit the situation, and the popularity of that feature is what got that spread around to a lot more characters than just two in the sequel. Rain was a "mere soldier" and got the opportunity to work with Flare on a mission early on. While Flare was definitely the main character, the game had a nice touch and put you in charge of the veterans instead. Who are those veterans? I'll cover them later. But needless to say, over time, Rain and Flare fell in love, and got married. Well, sort of. They didn't really have a complete wedding ceremony, ever. Mahzoks attacked the only time they attempted to, and a short time later, various events occurred that kept them separate. Rain died before they could reunite, and it's partly why she suggested that she not partake in this mission. I'll go into more details later when we get to a different part of the story, but suffice it to say this is part 1 of 4.

This castle. I completely missed it on my first run, unlocked it but couldn't find it on my second and third run, and just wandered aimlessly until I found it by accident without it unlocked on my fourth run. Of course, I was at the end game when I did unlock it, so...yeah. The Shoko no Sho skill (T********) is invaluable for handling a later boss if you don't get a hold of the boss' gimmick. Barrier Field is amazing and nearly game breaking later on. Resisting Ancient is ridiculous. --- A bit more story time. Tim Tan mentioned it, but yes, Flare will be playable. Those who have played the older game will notice a few nostalgic references when you look at her equipment and spells. I'll point them out in more detail when that happens.

Oh boy, time galore!Tin Tim posted:
This is the best part, in my opinion, of the first game's reveals. Zeskar and Catyss are your main party members, and Flare is actually a third-string character. Rain would sometimes be the fourth wheel (actually third wheel, as Zeskar or Catyss would go on a different mission on most of the parties), but otherwise Flare was not the main character. Zeskar was in the first position, and would always be referred to as the hero of the story. As you now know, this ended up not being the case. Tin Tim posted:
Worse. Rain had a bunch of issues. Among other things, Rain was born premature, his mom died giving birth to him. (Oh look, cliche!) He was sort of the outcast, and had to work to his position instead of just being granted it. However, he was an amazing fighter. He's a Magic Swordsman, which meant he not only could use some sword skills but also had spells. Every time that Flare would learn a new move, it took the influence of Rain to do so. Rain's moves, as I mentioned before, were amazingly versatile. One in particular I've always committed to memory whenever I do anything RPG-related is the moment that he and Flare were locked in a battle against a being that nullified their magic. Flare could still attack, but Rain was under the DEPRESS status condition, which not only meant he couldn't Heal but in that battle the boss started to seal all of his magic. As someone who like casting spells, Rain became DEPRESSED partway through the battle. However, he noticed that his newly learned Freeze Lancer spell wasn't being sealed, and he quickly deduced that because he had learned it so recently his opponent, who seemed to know everything about them, didn't know he had it. But he still had the anti-magic barrier on, so he quickly altered the statistics of his spell (that's how Rain describes it, seriously) and cast it to target the barrier. He then used a sword skill to destroy the barrier, allowing Flare to use her Valkyrie powers again. And if you're wondering how he can still cast despite having Silence Disease...well, I don't know the exact answer to this question, but I presume that it's due to his sword. If that's true, then that truly explains why after it's broken, he no longer joins the party. Tin Tim posted:
The Mahzoks interrupted her wedding. She transforms into the Sacred Dragoon short after. Who else would she go after but CHAOS? Reckless girl. Tin Tim posted:
Flare wanted to do this scene justice. She messed up this scene so badly that this was the most buggy part of the entire game. It kinda sucked, and I never got to check the actual files to find out why. (Then again, this was not only the PS RPGMaker but I didn't know anything about programming RPG Maker. Most of what I know I learned from looking at RW's code and Three the Hard Way's code. Oh, and The Way. Can't forget that one, Lun Calsari.) All I know is, this scene bugged twice before working, and some of the graphics were glitchy. This was definitely the low point of the previous game and as such Flare wanted to do it justice here. Tin Tim posted:
Actually, what Fina just told us is exactly what she knows. She doesn't know the full truth and is never given the full truth. Tin Tim posted:Well, that's all the backstory stuff for now. If you can weigh in on any of this, thenightsshadow, please go ahead! All done. One more tidbit before I go. You know that Sentinel character? We actually see "it" later.

The way you tell these things makes it seem like the first game had much better story/writing. I guess it could just be because you tell it that way, but some things about the first game sound legit interesting. It's a remnant of the poor writing and storytelling done in the first game. It wasn't that great of a game, twists-aside, and honestly Romancing Walker is at least 200% better story-wise. Yeah, go fig, huh? It's actually "anime-ish" because the first game wasn't sure if it was trying to be anime or serious, and it flip flopped between the two a lot. Like, three times in the opening cutscene, including the whole "don't propose to me yet, I'll die" cliche.

When I first made my account (for Dangan Ronpa), I decided to check out if Romancing Walker or any other Rm2k games had been made. Ah well, my contributions to this thread are good enough. Tin Tim posted:I really have no idea how the timeline should work. I'll refer that question to thenightsshadow, who is now the official keeper of Flare's lore. I'll have to check on my end.

Granted, I took Latyss with me on that first run, and after that I began to like each of the characters. Well, except Hayami. Hayami never really left my team whenever I could have her after she got On Maku. IIRC, I think On Maku has a level limit that I once failed to reach in a playthrough.

Partial time. Divine Victory Buster - Ancient Element. (Well, technically, it's Holy and Ancient.) Unlike Divine Impact and Victory Buster, Divine Victory Buster is Ancient. Why? I'll get into it more as it goes on, but suffice to say, Raymah is scared of this move. Rain taught this move to Flare in a battle against Raymah. And yes, I mean taught. All of Rain's "new moves" are self-taught, and all he does is amplify certain characteristics of the spell on the fly. Here's a sample of what he's done: Fire: Increase intensity, prevent escape. Ice: Lower damage, target barrier. All Rain did was show Flare how to combine her valkyrie Divine Impact and Victory Buster together. But what about the Ancient Element? That's still another 5 or so updates away. All you need to know for now is that Omega Wave, the spell mentioned by Fina before, is also Ancient Element.

Small time. Welcome to the first ever foreshadowed party member of Romancing Walker. The game did have a sequel hook but was vague at best. However, Princess Mina (Merudia) was featured, and was stated to be a party member at some point in the game (if you read between the lines; it's never actually stated). This is just speculation now, but the way the story of RW turned out, it seems like Mina was going to be the main character but it didn't feel right not having a male lead after the bait-and-switch mechanic of the first game.

Welcome the (former) protagonist, Zestrum! Well, I don't have his actual name from the game before, but it's the same guy. He and his wife Meldyss (first traveling together as "adventurers", then engaged) were the game's first two characters, and that horndog attitude of Zestrum never really left him in the sequel. Zestrum (a Magic Swordsman) had Rain Delstar as his personal soldier back in Gaiares, but he decided not to let anybody else know (according to the player) so when you first encounter Rain there was no explanation of his familiarity with Zestrum. Zestrum's relationship with Rain and Zeskar are both...shall we say, plothole-laden in that game. Speaking of plotholes, notice that little tidbit about the history of the Gaiares empire? 22nd Emperor "Lodyss Fon Gaiares"? Didn't Zestrum mention that he's an ex-prince and that Zeskar succeeded him to the throne? What happened there? In the first game, Zestrum gives up his Prince role a few moments before Flare's wedding, so it would seem to mean that Zeskar's the guy in charge. Interestingly enough, Lodyss and Zeskar were referred to as separate entities throughout that game, but Romancing Walker describes the two in such a way that makes you think they're one and the same. I don't really have an answer for you here. Anyways, the first tick that you might realize regarding Zestrum and Meldyss not actually being the main characters is that Meldyss doesn't learn a single spell via Level Up. Zestrum (Magic Swordsman), Meldyss (Shieldmaiden), Flare (Valkyrie), Rain (Magic Swordsman, though losing access to his spells when plot deemed it necessary), Sentinel (Dragon Magic/Axe Warrior), and ??? (Pure Mage/<spoiler>) were all part of the main group at differing times, and only Meldys was incapable of learning via Level Up. It was certainly interesting, I'll say. Also, speaking of loss, think about how courageous Flare was. She loses Zestrum and Meldyss as party members to try to stop Gaiares' corruption (the backstory wasn't being exactly truthful about the Gaiares' intentions; they actually wanted to try to destroy Meldia due to what they thought was demonic influence, when they themselves were influenced by Mahzoks), hears that the castle they raid collapses with them still trapped in it, and then while transforming at her interrupted wedding, realizes that Sentinel is now paralyzed for good and that Rain's disease is back and worse than ever and both can no longer fight with her, leaving just ??? left. And when ??? can't reach CHAOS and Flare has to fight alone, all of those doubts and losses catch up with her, and without Rain's intervention (and thus his death), Flare would've never beaten CHAOS. I've hinted as to who ??? is before, but I'm stating this person now because this person is central to the entire core. I'm sure "Secret Agent" was less clunky in the original. Also, Polsy, I need to ask you if this line was translated accurately from the original: - "Its gravity field cancels out most magic, so tracing its magical energy is almost impossible." Because if not, there's a problem.

I've had that font issue before. IIRC, it's a reading of the RTP system of the wrong font, and you need to download the correct font to fix it? Mimi Festa. "Hero of the Dragonic War". If by hero you mean sing and dance and raise people's morale. Oh, and I guess fight stuff. She was so utterly forgettable that I nearly forgot she was there, even in passing. Think one of the Macross F singer girls, but could fight...sorta. She didn't fight much because the people treated her like an idol despite her protests and didn't want her to get hurt. Edit: quote:So really, I can understand that Flare didn't feel like doing all that on top of what he already did. It's just weird that he didn't space out their appearance a bit, or made an actual dungeon for each of them or something. I mean, the animations and designs are there, but they don't get used a whole lot. Honest-to-goodness, I swear I thought Flare was female.

This is how I had to explain the whole Warp thing. Force Barrier and Dispell Traps are more or less two spells with a similar effect. Force Barrier is more battle-oriented while Dispell Traps is more passive, but both are energy barriers. When Ryle uses Warp, he has to displace a bunch of energy (aka the party) and transfer it elsewhere. Since Graphost's "Tempest" is an atmospheric change, using Warp makes a lot of energy move at a very fast speed, and energy vs. energy (Tempest) causes the explosion. I went in-depth before but that's the major gist of my explanation and the only way it makes sense to me right now.

I'm going to be spoiling in this small because now's a good a time as any, and by the time the update where said spoiler is would go live, I have something more pressing to talk about in regards to the characters. Okay, so Lady Flare is going to be manning the first party along with three other characters. (I always recommend putting Fina in the other party since Flare will take care of the Holy and Ancient Elements.) Remember that Divine V-Buster she used before? You'll soon be in command of that powerful attack. As I mentioned before, Rain was the only one that learned combinatory or otherwise altered spells, and mostly during battle. Flare's Divine Victory Buster is no exception. She learns it at Level 25, and IIRC the Playstation version of RPG Maker had a Level cap of 30. If I'm wrong about that part, someone please correct me. It's nothing really special in theory, but later on we'll see why it's more special than it appears at first glance. Finally, a question to Polsy. What Level does Flare learn Divine V-Buster in the Japanese Romancing Walker?

And this is the I wanted to talk about. THIS FIGHT. THIS FIGHT.So Funei has the ability to split her Mahzok body into two and make a double contact Mahzok with "half the power". Problem is, Flare had to take out her Valkyrie sister Catyss and Dragon Summoner Sentinel de Riser, both very skilled fighters; one being her sister and one being her teacher. And yes, that's Sentinel with an S. Your party? Flare, Rain. Why? Because this wasn't Funei's first foray. Remember how Zestryss was mentioned to be a playable character? His leaving the party is due to Funei. Because Raymah wanted the glory he and Funei bickered and ultimately their division allowed Zestryss to break free from Funei's control through sheer will. So the Mahzoks collapsed the castle he and his wife-to-be were in. And that's how that happened. Anyways, this is a 2-on-2 fight that's made even worse by the fact that Sentinel still has his Dragon Gene at this point and due to that would summon Green Dragons to fight and defend him. Catyss had more or less the same skills as Flare, but acting in the vein of a non-playable character that happens to be the same class as a party member (surprise surprise, game trope), she has better skills and a much worse Heal. Catyss possessed by Funei would also have Holy Break, a skill that was supposed to lower your Holy resistance, but as far as I know the version that made it off of the Playstation RPG Maker had a slight bug that didn't make this work. Divine Impact still hurt, though, and could one-shot Rain if you hadn't been raising him. You won this fight by bringing Flare to low HP for a flag to trigger, where Rain would learn Freeze Nightmare which would affect the opponent's MP instead of the HP. From there it was a matter of defeating Catyss first so Sentinel would summon a Red Dragon in her place, and then he could be targeted without the Green Dragons interfering because "oh no, Green Dragons/Red Dragons hate each other". Yeah, you can imagine the errors the game would cause if you tried doing multi-target skills. That fight is probably the dumbest fight in the entire game because of how stupid it got. It wasn't the buggiest fight but it sure had a lot of problems, the least of which was dialogue in it. Fun fact: Gladius is the spear Flare got from defeating Catyss. Fun fact #2: This was Rain's second-to-last boss fight. thenightsshadow fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Mar 31, 2014 |

"Compared to your previous host in the past, my older sister Catyss Delstar...and Centinel de Riser, whom I got the Dragon Gene from. Both were already top-class fighters by themselves, so you were very powerful based on their bodies. But now, with the body of someone whose combat experience is almost none...what were YOU thinking?"

Brony Hunter posted:An interesting read, as usual. I'm guessing that Flare's first game never got an English release? Is it still available on the internet, even in it's original Japanese? No, it's not available, as far as I know. There was a Playstation RPG Maker "game" before and the first game was "released" on that console.

Addendum to the above. Who's the dead one? Catyss or Sentinel?
