Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
Hoo boy, now we're getting to the good stuff. For new players the world bosses (with the exception of the first) in this game are amazingly fun, but also amazingly hard, especially if you're doing a no-damage run. I will echo that Cerberus α is the most annoying to no-damage though, simply because of how chaotic the fight is. Later bosses aren't so much of a clusterfuck.

All right, I'm going to assume I never got the gold gem, as I totally don't remember that sequence with the Zeus Clancer. Either this is some sort of Japanese cultural reference that is completely going over my head, or the game was going for maximum non-sequitur-ness with this one.
Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
After reading gamefaqs, the Frog only has a chance of summoning the Clancer wizard on the cloud if the boss is at low health. Catching the cloud's attack and killing the frog with it is how you get the gold gem.
Man, who would know you're supposed to hold off winning the fight when you have the frog almost beat?

For some reason, I always got the Zeus Clancer. I didn't even know you could possibly skip him.
Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
Same here. I was surprised the first time I managed it. I also never managed to pull off getting the gold gem for this fight either. One of a handful in the early game I never managed to figure out.RedMageMike wrote:For some reason, I always got the Zeus Clancer. I didn't even know you could possibly skip him.

Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
IIRC the frog only does that attack at 1 HP and since you do a lot of damage really quickly with the shake method, it's really easy to skip without knowing about it if you attack it that way

The game keeps up with the variety. Looking forward to more.
Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
As unintuitive as it is, its actaully easier somewhat to throw stuff at the clancer kids diagonally to hit them. Of course I think must have been intentionally annoying because Marina backhanding Calina offscreen afterwards is peak "I'm sick of your shit". And lastly, I just want to take a moment to appreciate how literally everything on this planet, from the insects to the arachnids to the rocks in the very ground itself, has that stupid goddamn face.

Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
I used to think it was a touch odd that Marina doesn't fight her evil twin herself, but it turns out she sort of does, and it's really no contest. So it's fitting enough to have it be part of Teran's coming of age story in the end. On the other hand, as much of a jerk as Calina is, it doesn't really make much sense for Teran to blame her for what happened to Marina, considering that Calina's entire role in that part of the exchange was to get punched off screen.

i find it really weird how marina goes in to the clancers' homes and shakes their kids, steals their colorful jewels, and is generally kinda rude, but gets idolized by the clancers anyways! i feel like the clancers should reevaluate their relationship with marina, it doesn't seem very healthy for their society

Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
Yeah, Calina seems to be able to make herself look like Marina (sort of), but she doesn't seem to have any of Marina's actual abilities. Especially evident in that she doesn't fight even remotely like Marina.Le Neveu de Rameau wrote:I used to think it was a touch odd that Marina doesn't fight her evil twin herself, but it turns out she sort of does, and it's really no contest.

Link goes into random houses and breaks shit constantly as well as opening their chests and taking the contents yet Hyrulians still consider him a hero as well.Divemissile wrote:i find it really weird how marina goes in to the clancers' homes and shakes their kids, steals their colorful jewels, and is generally kinda rude, but gets idolized by the clancers anyways! i feel like the clancers should reevaluate their relationship with marina, it doesn't seem very healthy for their society

Meanwhile... I don't remember the game having this many odd sections. Besides the entire game being entirely odd, that is. But hey, welcome to the era of originality in game design.
I'm an idiot who likes vidya games.
And also maybe makes bad decisions based on those vidya games.

Yeah, Tarus is reeeeeally easy to S rank if he does the right first move (it's the only level I S-Ranked). Sasquatch Beta is also extremely easy, which is weird since almost all the bosses in this game are rather challenging (but still fun). I'm not sure what happened when they were designing Tarus/Sasquatch

Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
A Canadian worried about pronouncing about pronuncing "Tarus" asˈ/tʰɔːɹəs/ instead of the presumed /tʰɑːɹəs/? You folks already have both the father/bother and cot/caught mergers to begin with, so you pronounce, like, 90% of all a- and o-variants identically as is; you might as well finish the job and put the remaining ones out of their misery. Who needs more than one vowel anyway?
Speaking of Tarus (who is most certainly not a bull), I'm glad the game specified exactly what sort of creature he's supposed to be (though like raocow, I thought Sasquatch β was just supposed to be his vehicle, too), as I had initially assumed he was just a human with poor posture. I guess his sprite looks apelike enough, especially combines with some of his movements, but they really should have made him a bit hairier in his portrait to make things clearly. The position of The Naked Ape is already occupied, as I understand things.
Also, is Tarus singing a known song there when he does his Bugs Bunny act? I didn't think so at first, but then years later, I swear I heard it once and stopped dead in my tracks (I subsequently recovered) upon realizing it was the Tarus song. I can't, however, seem to find any evidence of such a tune anywhere, though, so I wonder if I wasn't simply mishearing (or misremembering) it, like that time I heard the singer in an English-language 60s pop song talking about seeing the object of his affections "standing there so bequem", or the fellow enthusiastically crooning of the supermarket sound system that he "will be painful, painful to [his] lovers" and "will show them who the enemy is"".
Finally, Marina, you say killing people isn't your style? You've been remarkably unstylish of late.

Re: Mischief Makers - chilly doggo is best doggo, 12/10 will pet
Tarus is weird. He can normally tank a rock to the face, but for some reason hitting him/slamming him into a wall at just the right time can one shot him.
S ranking in this game is so terrible. Tarus for example requires resets until he has a moveset you can 1-2 shot and then you have to button mash through the cutscene because the timer still ticks down during it, and the S rank is under 16 seconds.RedMageMike wrote:Yeah, Tarus is reeeeeally easy to S rank if he does the right first move (it's the only level I S-Ranked).

I found it so neat to take control of someone else for a couple stages. It's neat.

There's also Link's Awakening. Marin scolds you for breaking pots and other things when you have her around.Lostsoldier20 wrote:There is that one guy in the Wind Waker with the auction house.

When Tarus punches, does his voice clip sound to anyone else like he's saying "You suck!"?

The challenge with Tarus isn't in damaging him, it's figuring out how to damage him.Tenlade wrote:Tarus is weird. He can normally tank a rock to the face, but for some reason hitting him/slamming him into a wall at just the right time can one shot him.
Sasquatch β stone-walled me for so long I gave up and left the game unbeaten for years (GameFAQs didn't exist back then). I just could NOT hurt him no matter what I tried.

With such an inspiring leader as King Aster, you really have to wonder how the Empire ever managed to conquer Planet Clancer to begin with.
