Speedball posted:Point of note: Yuri's neck gem, the one that indicated how much Malice he was accumulating in the first game? A bet the Masks are getting a ton of 'your girlfriend died for you' speeches warmed up as we speak. I mean seriously, how often do those guys get to screw with the same person twice?

Junpei posted:It's a little subtle, but over the course of the first game and this one, we've slowly been moving from Idiot!Yuri to Snarky!Yuri. He looked outside the church at the start, saw the possessed children's toys, and decided to just roll with it. I think at this point the final boss of No More Heroes 2 could drop in and Yuri wouldn't even bat an eye.

The Dark Id posted:<nods> ...All right, Joachim. I remember you when you were just a dying bat, but you've certainly turned out fine. Off with you, then! Build up your skills then come back and show me how strong you've become! Could you imagine taking in an injured bat and nursing it back to health, only to wake up one morning and Joachim is just there. How much has the old lady been through to just say this like it was completely normal.

The real reason she's the only member of the World Fitness Walking Society is because she demands the new members walk in dungeons and they all get slaughtered by random encounters.

Neddy Seagoon posted:If you give her a tranquilizer rifle any mission to a military base turns into a shopping trip for new recruits. Yeah Quiet is pretty much like Magikarp. Her default rifle is kinda bad, but push through it and she can pretty much tranq an entire base with no issues forever so long as you keep up on negating helmets being passed around.

Rabbi Raccoon posted:That ellipses hints at a story and I'm now picturing you saying that, taking a drag off your cigarette, and staring off into the distance. Hierophant is a 50% heal, I imagine getting a sparkly reverse Hierophant just instantly kills everyone.

SaitoBatch posted:Ironically... or logically, the only reverse card you'd want to get would be the Hanged Man. Doesn't that you kill you if you get it right side up? Normal Hanged Man makes all enemies skip their next turn. Reversed makes you skip your turn. Special makes both effects last two turns, meaning special reverse Hanged Man gives the enemies two free turns to beat you to death.

If we don't get at least one fight with Rasputin that ends with him 'dead' for an hour before showing up out of nowhere I will be severely disappointed.

Pesky Splinter posted:Part of the problem is in SH1, Albert's in things for the long con with three or four different world-ending plans in motion. I'm just waiting for a big reveal that SH1 was just bait to try and get someone to become strong enough to take down Rasputin. Either his plan is thwarted and Rasputin is next on the chopping block, or the world is destroyed and Rasputin's plans get thrown out the window anyways. The reveal is given by Albert himself, who either didn't die after all or just goes full Obi-wan and shows up as a force ghost for the rest of the game.

I'll be honest, when Yuri's normal face showed up during the punch, I was half expecting the camera to pan out a bit more and have Albert's ghost back him up like this was Gohan vs Cell.

Junpei posted:I like RPG mechanics that make sure you actually pay attention to fights instead of just mashing A to win via basic attacks or spamming the strongest attacks. The problem is that such a system can very, very easily become a chore once you've done a couple hundred fights and it becomes pointless busywork. I'm looking at you, Legend of Dragoon!

Speaking of the step counter, does running around in St. Marguerite Island still count, or were they smart enough to disable it after they removed all the random encounters?

Alternatively, we end up fighting each one individually, at which point they all combine into Sun Wukong or something. Complete with the extending staff. Joachim gets it as a weapon after.

Shitenshi posted:I know someone actually did complete an SSLP of that game way back when in 2011-2012, but for some reason it was never archived. Good luck with the mechanics though. I can't believe a game from that era actually tried to use the FF2 leveling system with the weapons. Here's the thread, but you'll need to buy archive access for your account if you don't already have it.

Considering Yuri's luck, I'm guessing the Alice-monstrosity will have just enough of her soul to end up taking the Mistletoe curse in Yuri's place. Yuri will have to live knowing his girlfriend sacrificed herself for his sake for the same thing twice over.

Lunar Suite posted:NGL, the Sub-Persona system, especially the part where you recover X HP and SP based on the sub-persona, was busted as gently caress and of course I abused the hell out of it. Why stop there? Give her Alice/Daisoujou and instantly delete any encounter that isn't outright immune. With the Sub-Persona SP boost, she could last for a full excursion without running dry.
