I ran into a bug when you fight the golems on the bridge. They are invisible, and after killing them, nothing happens, my characters just stand there forever. I reloaded my save and it happens every time. Anyone else seen this? I can't progress.

The game's punishing you for doing Kevin dirty like that. Also, I see what you did there with Duran's name

I had Charlotte finish off the second one, but my main Reisz did a dramatic thrust after the fight and stole the credit for the kill.

I actually got it to stop doing that by repairing my 8bitdo controller in Switch mode, which is apparently a thing it has, causing the game to recognize it as a Switch controller instead of an Xbox one.

Although... now the game seems to be recognizing the shortcut inputs as belonging to the wrong buttons, even though everything else seems to work correctly?

Hm, it looks like the controller is actually working properly, the game just doesn't move the buttons around the shortcut wheel if you use a controller of a different type, so they aren't were they "should" be.

Pants Donkey posted:I don’t know if Secret would be as well-regarded if not for the multiplayer. It’s real fun at first hitting baddies with basic weapons with your friends, and this predates Diablo 1 so you don’t have a multiplayer experience like that anywhere else. But once you start using magic seriously, the game kinda grinds to a halt as one or two people keeps opening menus to spam spells while the person stuck as the boy just gets sad. Yeah, SoM has not aged well gameplay-wise. The graphics and soundtrack are ageless, but the whole "wait a couple seconds before attacking again or you do 1 damage" thing is not great. And although, I always liked the charging aspect, it's supposedly a hugely inefficient way to play, and the grinding aspect to level up everything is also ehhh. I honestly don't know if I can get myself to replay it in the collection. ToM, while mechanically wonky at times, has aged way better in every aspect. You know what would be a great remake? Even though it's not Square (which I only just recently learned): Terranigma

A couple of mechanics things I haven't caught on my own: --Some skills reference power attacks. Is that the class strike (what it's called in the xp bonus if you kill with it)? Any strong attack? Charged strong attacks? --Is there any purpose to points in a stat other than the bonuses? Is 5 points in strength different from 4. or more than 6 in a stat before class change?

Bruceski posted:A couple of mechanics things I haven't caught on my own: Power attacks just means any strong attack. Like the passive that gives 1 MP for a power attack, you don't have to charge up or anything, just whack em. As far as I'm aware, points in a stat do nothing beyond the skills they grant.

Training points aren't stat points, they only increase stats when you put enough points in to get the '+5 Strength' or whatever bit.

That's what I thought for training points, thanks for confirming. And good to know for power attacks, makes that 6str pretty dang useful for Angela. I have no clue how to ficus her since she wants everything for elemental targeting.
