Sailor: "hey dude can you get me 10 glues???? you need 25 jelly creams, 1 scorpion tail and 5 poison jellies to make a single household-grade one"
Me: oh
So yeah, this is kind of my first 20 Bear Asses sidequest ever, I may be forgetting something in some shitty JRPG, but, yeah. It's not too bad, I'm giving myself a goal to just do one glue at a time per day, and it helps me gain levels so eh. It's a Korean MMO and it's from 2002-2003, so it comes with the territory. So yeah, to appease Gikel (the sailor) I'll have to get 250 Jellies, 10 Scorps and 50 Poisons in total, so far I've gotten 50 J, 2 S, 10 P.
Jelly Creams are a near constant drop, you get them nearly all the time from Jellypi which are essentially the Slimes (or Porings, this is an MMO) of the game. Scorpion Tails are a semi-rare drop from Scorpinos, but give it sometime and one will drop eventually, I've had far worse RNG in offline games. And Poison Jellies are semi-common from Poison Jellypi, which are marginally stronger (granted they are Lv14, but my Issac is a bit too strong).
These three enemies can be found in the Kraiden Plains near Narvik, so it's not too much of a pain, I'll have to keep in mind about my inventory slots as they've gotten full earlier, so I had to sell a bunch of shit at Loche's, which fyi is one of(?) the places where Money Money Money from JUMP plays in, I actually almost used it in AAT for a Christmas themed stage, the song gives me those warm, late 2000s holiday winter evening where I just got up from my chair after playing custom SRB2 1.09.4 levels all day vibes I'm very nostalgic for, but I was not very confident in my work.
Got around 18,000 seeds (Kurse all SeeDs, swarming like lokusts across etc etc) out of that, especially since Issac can't equip that much. If I had a swordsman character I'd be mostly fine, but Issac is primarily a monk-type, so light armor and fist weapons like claws and karlas (blades that attach to the side of your fists, like how you grasp and attack with tonfas, most likely Not Real) and such. I have a ninja headband just for extra defense, though it's not very aesthetic and that's usually what matters with MMO armor.
No Naruto bullshit sadly, though I have seen a Haruhi NPC and I'm not sure if that's just Ketuhole and crew making a custom NPC, they are Japanese and I imagine they're huge dorks. The TalesWeaver JP Wiki does mention a Fairy Tail crossover event so...
I know you mean lives but this just makes me think about the Dragon Slayer 1 port Epoch made for the Game Boy that made its way to several multicarts, but also is impossible to beat in an actual cart because I don't think Epoch ever coded in a Save feature, even the semi-jank "save to floppy" spell you learn like halfway through a level (I guess you could call them dungeons?) in DraSlay1. People have tried with a charger, but there have been accounts of like the Game Boy eating shit and dying or the cart overheating so I Have No Idea.camwoodstock wrote: ↑11 months ago defs recommend savestates though because Wow this sure was a game boy game without battery backups
If it makes anything better I think the Saturn version in Falcom Classics is probably the best one for automatically starting you with diagonal movement and whatnot, maybe actual saves all the time? It has a translation patch though I don't know if it was always in English like the other versions as well as Xanadu's several versions, even on PC88. Could just be for the Ys port included in that collection (eat shit Romancia, we miss u so much Xanadu Scen. II).
Sorry for shitting on ASMT the other day btw, I feel like I was very disrespectful
