Glad you're back! Now to read the last few updates to remember what's been going on. e: "Let’s begin Turn 3 down south, with some tactical Egbert action." 3 images after this you have the wrong image. Also you seem to have missed some face icons towards the second half of the update. Zanzibar Ham fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Jul 20, 2014 |

Go for the crown! Also, I always love it when someone important dies and there's this sad moment, followed by "Level up! Atk+1!" I might have mentioned it in the last thread.

MonotoneMorgan posted:What have you liked about Der Langrisser so far? What haven't you liked? I've always been a sucker for RPGs with multiple paths. It's cool when you can affect the story! Secondly, as sort of a consequence of the game letting you join forces with the baddies, many of them get a bit more personality than just 'bad guy' and 'creepy bad guy'. I wouldn't call them fully developed, but it's more than nothing. Also class changes are always awesome. PS: bonus MUSCLES mission was great Now, what I don't like... I'd go with how it seems like the most important characters seem to be the least interesting. Oh, and the female character concept art in most cases (though what can you expect from a porn artist?). quote:What are you hoping to see? What do you think about the grand conflict between Light/Chaos and humanity being thrust in between them? I don't know what I want to see, I just go with the flow. Whatever happens happens! As to the whole conflict and humanity's role in it, I'm going to withhold forming a real opinion on it until I see the monster story path. Right now it seems mostly cut and dry, with only a hint of perhaps humans' racism/speciesism having a part in why monsters hate them so much.

MonotoneMorgan posted:Also, the most important characters being the least interesting - are you referring to the respective heads of factions like Bernhardt, Boser and Jessica being rather bland when actually dealing with them and only through engagement with their subordinates do we learn a little of them as leaders/people? I felt especially strongly about this with Bernhardt hence why i gave him a more fleshed out back story initially since he is a pretty cool guy just not given enough screen time and instead we get Egbert who cannot compare. Boser is unfortunately just pure evil given his whole Prince of Darkness schtick, which is unfortunate given that we know there's a man behind the mask who serves Chaos, the skull head that couldn't take over a temple, let alone the world. Actually I might have been mistaken about this (it's just been a while since I followed the story so I didn't remember everything). The characters I have trouble with are *goes to the character list to refresh memory* Fighter/Octavian, Liana, maybe Leon (does he ever show hesitation over what he's doing? I don't remember), and I think I merged Egbert and Boser in my mind. Hein would also be one of the not interesting ones, except that he has the Muscle Ending. Now, I don't remember things exactly so I could be wrong here. For instance in Lunar 2 I remembered the mage as being all about the money for a big part of the game, but reading the LP that didn't seem to be the case. So it could be that as I forget more and more the characters seem to me more and more shallow.

Could this mean that Jessica will be the final boss? Real excited for how this might go.

MonotoneMorgan posted:Yes, I can confirm that Jessica is waiting for us upon her throne. But for now, we have a sister to persuade! I vote General, because I think we don't have any of those in our crew. e: feel free to ignore my vote if we already have a General Zanzibar Ham fucked around with this message at 14:04 on Dec 27, 2014 |

At least in the true playthrough Rohga gets to be prince charming.

I think it was more that Boser cursed people (LP CURSE!!! ), then spread the rumors that the curse was a plague or something. It makes more sense than 'hey guys, there's totally a plague, honest'.

That "Kill Lester" objective caught me by surprise. I guess I forgot how it went in the previous campaign. It's cool that they have the "Kill" objective to show you that you now really mean business.

What I really like about these games (continuing to the Growlansers) is that they seem to plan for a bunch of eventualities you'd usually expect to get a gameover from, and instead you get a whole different story branch. That's really cool. As for Lana and Liana in the True Imperial End, I'd say that Lana ends up with Leon, while Liana refuses to be anywhere near Octavian because if you win a thousand battles and betray your allies only once, you're still a traitor. I'm hoping I remember the sisters right here.

The agent of Chaos should be named Vorkken. He'll have light-purplish skin, blond hair, pointy ears, a third eye (that unfortunately will always be covered by the hair ), and in his non-sad facial expressions he'll be smirking.

Oh well, goodbye Jessica. Here's a song in memoriam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tngC3EHx9nI It's in Hebrew so probably the only word you'll understand is 'Jessica'.
