I'll be honest, they were pairing Karin and Atsuma pretty hard but Yuki blindsided me. This game is so weird.

Yeah I'm guessing the game's trying to do some sort of love triangle thing and screwing it up massively. But that doesn't get brought up in this Update! because we're too busy finding the spy (it's Raigar)

Are you trying to say that Paine is as bad as the FFXIII cast? That is like the bad wrongest opinion. She was cool and fun. "What's the password for [boss monster]?" "How about 'Kick. Its. rear end.'"

Also yeah what the gently caress Karin?

I think the argument is that Paine is a female version of Cloud, which is also wrong.

Paine was basically the best character in X-2 and should have been the lead in a better game (X-2 was decent but she would make an otherwise ok game amazing)

Considering that I hated most characters in X-2 was kind of ambivalent about Paine, I have to agree.

Also in fairness, Yuki later pretty much argues that they shouldn't help her because she was mean that one time.

So I guess I forgive Karin and hate Yuki. Also, I shouldn't post before I'm done watching the video, because Atsuma's insistence on the Giggling Man's name just made me forgive this game for everything.

Except Yuki, I will never forgive this game for Yuki.

In this Update! we reach King Caliban to yell at him for wanting to release the Emperor of Fire never talking to his daughter about anything.

Well. In this Update I go the wrong way and get lost. For about half the episode. So basically nothing worthwhile happens and I would agree with skipping it.

Atsuma is being the adult in this group. That's scary.

I didn't mention this earlier, but Colin was volunteering for Pride the last two weekends and we couldn't record. As soon as we can we'll start up some new episodes.

We tried to record today, we really did. Unfortunately, we ran into technical difficulties again.

HOWEVER! THIS time, it was neither my fault nor Colin's internet's fault. Today, the blame lands squarely on Istvun, because he somehow managed to record no audio.

Colin then ran off to Canada. We'll be recording again on Sunday, super late.

We explore the secret king prison behind the throne room. I'm sure it comes in handy during revolutions!

I was a bit. Also this Update! has the first boss I was completely roadblocked by. We had to scrap that recording session and I don't have my audio from the fight, but I could re-commentate over the fight and release it as a supplemental video.

Another Update! We're a lot more powerful than earlier, so surely this time we can beat the Fire Temple.

After way too long dealing with a move and getting resettled, I am back with another Update!

30: Phoenicia, NOT Phoenix

Turns out the Fire temple that was giving us problems last episode is actually hard. Who'da thunk it? Anyways, I'm not sure how much interest remains in this LP. If nobody's watching it might make sense to let it die a quiet death.

Honestly I don't blame you for exploiting the hell out of the power of 2d or not 2d. I wonder if you could have a whole team of them and wipe out a boss just by 3 of them alone.

With Time Warner I think after 3 months if you call them up and threaten to change your ISP you can get your bill cut in half with them or something. That's what I've been told- I have Centurylink and ugh it's horrible.

Yeah, that's how I got it cut by around $20, but the service still doesn't seem to be as good as the old ISP. Unf those guys don't serve this building so it was an elaborate bluff.
