Chapter 4-3 - The Mine [Polsy]

Leon breathes fresh air for only a while before delving back down into the Castle's mine. More smelly villagers and lunatic chainsaw wielders, but we have a brand new upgrade to get us through. Also, more petty arguments!

The Syphon Filter LP was one LP composed of 6 games.

...which I am currently in the middle of rewatching right now, actually.

The total number of games Lune's LP'd (counting the Syphon Filter games) is 9. 10, counting this one.

Does the shotgun just deal random (or at least highly variant) damage to things in its cone of effect? Or are some bugs just sturdier than other bugs?

It's dependent on the number of pellets that hit enemies, and their placement is random within the cone.

Also, if they're flying, the Novistiadors only have 1 HP, instead of the 20-odd they do when walking about.

I found out lately that they LITERALLY have 1 HP. I always knew the flying ones were way weaker than their grounded brethren and normally die in one shot, but in my latest playthrough I was shocked when I shot one with a 0.8 damage TMP bullet and it didn't die.

I think we can see a screenshot of his initial post upon getting it in one of the later Fall of Cybertron LP videos. Also, Roboky's matching "Avitus on Sarah's body" avatar that he had for awhile, which was both horrifying and amusing in equal measure.

Chapter 5-1 - The Island [Polsy]

Ada drives Leon out to Saddler's Island on her boat, but ditches him of course. Although he's dealt with a lot up to this point there're still more herbs to be twirled. We enter the final act! Of course, Cris & Albert's HD Project has not reached the Island yet, I'm afraid, but there's a lot to do so I wouldn't stand around all that often to begin with.

I like the RE4 regenerators as a concept.

Specifically because like how they said, unlike the bog standard enemy of that type you can still kill them without gimmicks.

Sure, it takes an absurd and wasteful amount of firepower to do so. But you can. That courtesy elevates them beyond being just another tiresome "Haha, you can't kill me until the plot or gimmick says so" enemy.

Also, callback to anybody going "Oh my god why do you need so much money?" when they are down to 940 with plenty of upgrades left to go, even with being so obsessive about their income. Buying rocket launchers doesn't count against that shut up

This has never worked out in my case. I recall Maxwell doing it once, but zeroing in was not an investment I was willing to make. It also just occurred to me that the Regenerators never got to do anything and that when they are lying prone on the ground, they can thrust themselves upwards and leap on to you and start chowing down on your collarbone, but the only time we'll witness them making any effort is when that one tried to cave my head in.
