Taking turns playing OutRun 2006 w/ @mothmanspirit and @Bee this game is rad
Also we did some co-op Neo Contra which was certainly the experience of a lifetime
I should play this more; I couldnât figure out the combat for the 30 minutes in the tutorial wheat field and hour of Real Game I gave it and succeeded only in getting red all over my first opponentâs kimono.
I thought the combat was excellent. I loved that you could kick root vegetables into your mouth whilst fighting to heal. The music is ace. After two runs I called it a day though, the rogue elements didnât have the legs to carry it for me. I had way more fun with this than Dragon Quarter though.
there was a move with the starting sword you could unlock where youâd sweep them and theyâd fall over and youâd stab them from above while theyâre down
but the sweep counted as a kick so it was the best to kick a turnip up and heal at the same time while using this OP move
it has been a really long time - did the first wots have any of the silly anachronisms of the later games?
when my dude in wots3 wearing stone wash jeans asked another samurai âwhere can I take a piss at?â was a real Moment
Just the black dude with the afro whoâs trying to look out for the girl. So by the seriesâ later standards, itâs restrained
way of the samurai is one of those perfect little gems. the sequels are all quite good as well, just not as âwow, this is hella neatâ-inducing
Still playing Breath of the Wild. finished the third dungeon. I have no idea how to get near death mountain now though. So I guess IâllâŚjust do sidequests?? Get rich on monster parts???
you have to actually approach on foot from the tower near the lost woods and itâll make sense, I kept trying to swoop in and it does not work out
Iâll have to try again. I walked over a mountain and then set on fire, so I figured I needed to find some special equipment or something.
Donât forget about potions. I found a lady near the stable at the foot of the mountain that sells a set of fireproof potions that should get you through to the city where you can then buy some armor to stay protected.
Tank it up to the city with dozens of cooked items, who needs fireproof potions
obviously you stasis a rock or boulder, hammer the fuck out of it in the direction of Death Mountain, grab on and let physics take over
too bad, iâm doinâ it as-is
i mean, i donât really have to pay attention to the grind or anything. and 20-30 mins/day adds up, itâs not like i have to finish this soon
thereâs three basic grind spots: prototype(only fight in area, not too bad with axes, but zero money, 4~5 rounds, 500 exp), crescent island(consistent fights, generally clear in a round or two, 240ish exp consistently, best money), and istory(one in four fights is vs mini-dragons, which are worth a lot, but take awhile to kill + everything else there sucks)
crescentâs my best bet overall i feel, as it has the least downtime, but theyâll all take forever
compared to mmo grind this is still nothing
this doesnât sound fun at all
it totally isnât
but i signed up for this and i am stubborn enough to see it through
also:
itâs still more fun than final fantasy 14
sorry
I gave up on my second and so far last fiesta because my first job was white mage and I started on a real DS forgetting I couldnât fast forward there, our stubbornness level is pretty different.
An underrated quality of permadeath is that you just die and restart when the RNG screws you, rather than running into a brick wall of nonprogress
I played Gunstar Heroes until 3AM trying to beat the board game stage because I was ridiculously tired and died like three times to Curry Rice without my weapons
I still need to look up a video just to figure out how to hit him because when I try to slide or body splash (the only means I know of to convey any damage) it doesnât appear to be useful
