 Also check out our GP. If you recall, we has 69k or something like that when we left the Forest Maze, and then I spent every GP and some more we earned after on all the fish, whales and the Teleport place so we had no GP. This is even without selling any of our loot like all those shields and crap.

Our party of beloved psychopaths, a cat and a trivia-orientated teenage girl traverse the largest mountain dungeon of all time, only to get blueballed at the end.

I found out Indinera's favourite Might and Magic is the 6th one and I'm remembering the like 6 hour second last dungeon in that game which explains so much. EDIT: Before someone points out the SankT Crown is in fact actually good for its resists, I did notice that later and equipped it on Sarah.

Yyyyeah i would not want to play this without the no encounters/walk through walls mode. Ugh, you're not kidding about those extremely low drop rates. It's 4% and 1%. No one likes this kind of poo poo, Indinera... Coryool yelling at the well is pretty good though. Hmm yes, i also enjoy... curved breasts...??? Harsh Bee is a much better name than Savage Bee, my gang tag remains unchanged. Ice cave sword has 36% crit, down 2% from Gudar's.  quote:Brace yourself for Indinera's absolutely incredible mountain design from here on out. I had not sufficiently braced myself  When it comes to infinite use spellcasting items the first thing that comes to mind is an infinite use revive and mp restorative ones you can get late in SMT:Nocturne.I know Phantasy Star (2-4) had them too, which is probably a more likely source of this guy's inspiration.

I can safely say that Indinera's preference towards the game with a 6-hour dungeon easily carried over into games after this one, considering the hell I'm going through in Millennium Game's pretty nice otherwise, but the Sapphire Cave and the adjoined Ancient Temple are both way too big and way too long; the Ancient Temple even has walking BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN TWO GIGANTIC ROOMS as its main design point. I legit dropped the game for several years because of the Ancient Temple showing up directly after the Sapphire Cave. Directly after. As in they're conjoined. Anyways now I'm getting stuck because getting back through the Sapphire Cave's labyrinthine mess of jump points after 4 years is feeling nigh impossible.

The end of Millennium 1 is quite possibly the worst part of the series just for that, I think. It's been some time.

I believe this is because the bench/table has been given the "counter attribute" in the chipset, which normally means you can talk to npcs over it, which is typically used for stores and such. But there's no difference between an npc and an interactable object (they are both "events" in RM) so examining an item is the same code. I was not, however, aware that you could do this across multiple tiles of counter!

As a better reward for solving a quest, you should give the cat all the stat boosters and replace the clueless git Random with him   Common what???   Now that is a face that belongs here even less than some of those other ones...Clash cutlass double-hits and has 42% crit, but probably still isn't worth it given those stats. Bit weird to see a metal weapon do laser damage! We usually have lightsabers for that.  Omobono posted:

This is basically what I expected after what I was told recently. I'm now curious if it works the same way in the later games but people wrongly think you have to buy all her crap. Something I'll have to poke around for. Anyway, thank you for your heroic efforts. Seraphic Neoman posted:This game is simultaneously fascinating and tedious. Hahaha, ain't that the truth. I think it only gets more fascinating as it gets on. The Laxius Force trilogy is a complete slog to actually play. At least I can have some fun in LP1 and 3. vilkacis posted:As a better reward for solving a quest, you should give the cat all the stat boosters and replace the clueless git Random with him Unfortunately, Random cannot be replaced. He's also the best and most consistent damage dealer the entire game, marred only by being a bit fragile for a hero. vilkacis posted:

I don't think you need to feel bad about still liking most of the game, even if the statement comes with a few asterisks. You do still spend a lot more time doing normal rpg things than you do looking at the weird bits, and you can mash through those pretty quickly if you're playing it for yourself. And as far as the lp goes, you did warn us about it so it's not as if it's sprung on anyone out of nowhere. If it still bugs you, you can just not show the other bad scene in full and gloss over it like any other uninteresting bit of the game. I think the readers more or less get the point about Indinera's particular likes

I'm kind of baffled to see Delta Night "spoilered" given it does nothing special. 285 fire and dark damage, inflicts shock. It does however ignore defence, which is probably handy.quote:Wendala blames porn and henty as the source of all evil with regards to young men. She might actually be accidentally right a little bit in a way Indinera definitely didn't intend. I mean, look at this game.  quote:Also, get ready for some extremely horny posting on main. Hold on i'm not ready!!! ...siiiigh. Okaaay.  Wendala's Copyright Symbol has 146 def, 102 mind, prevents crits and raises physcal avoid, resists blunt, flare, ice, bolt, and holy damage, and offers 50% immunity to death (to which all pcs are already immune!) and silence. So pretty good, all things considered. I don't think Tamara herself is bugged so much as 2k's "priority" mechanic is just really strange. Each move an enemy knows has a priority set between 1 and 100 so one would think the game would go through the options in order, roll a percentage, and pick the first move where it rolls under the listed priority. But from what i've seen during (limited and long ago) experiments with it, it seems like if one priority is more than a handful of digits away from another, the higher one basically always happens regardless of the actual numbers. It's really weird (and would be incredibly obnoxious if you wanted to script a reasonably intelligent enemy). I took a look at the old shrine area but couldn't find anything special there. I think it might just be there for atmosphere. There's been a lot of... amazing... lines so far but i'll have to admit "enough mean words" is pretty good.

lol Omobono posted:Bioware is Bioware going through puberty. Basically what I was thinking. Also, I feel the comparison is an insult, both ways! To Bioware's professionalism and uhhhh... comparative restraint, and an insult to the quality of Laxius Power 1. I'd much rather play LP1 again than almost any Bioware game. I guess I have a soft spot for BG2 and ME1 but that's about it. And even those two games... are not ones I'm super crazy about anymore. Funny, since trying to find more games like Baldurs Gate on abandonware sites and stuff was how I found Laxius Power to begin with.

So if I'm following the plot correctly, the party is randomly wandering around grinding levels in RPG Maker 2000 combat so they'll be ready in two years for the Dark Order's demon invasion, in a land where the inhabitants apparently escaped horny Tumblr? I can see a few subplots with the evil minotaur kingdom and that one dude who built his own church, but I can't find any kind of overarching thread aside from weird sad teen horniness.

Not quite. The Dark Order wants to take advantage of the Demoniac Cycle to -recruit- the demons (how they think this will work is an eternal mystery) but they have nothing to do with the fact that the Demons are coming. The Dark Orders plot is they're developing a super soldier serum, essentially, so they have the leverage to sway the Demons. We won't find out WHY the Dark order wants a super mega army alliance with the demons for a very long time, but there is a pretty great reason. The stupid part is what makes the Grand Commendanter think the demons will even think twice about killing him and his whole Dark order on sight.
