It was hard to ever put it down cause someone was always close to mastering their next mantra and when they did someone else would be close

I wasn't sure if you kill the optional bosses and start a new game if you have to re-beat them again anyway (if you don't master their mantras) so i held off on all of them for now. final boss is a chump.

advice - in the wrecked ship make sure you place things once per floor. dont get up to the 9th floor and have to go back through each floor like i did :)

Strength Serph is a beast. It seems like hunt skills increase with strength and are unaffected by phys resist/null.



: Defeat Cerberus

This game is taking me a long time to get through. I like to find everything and overprepare in jrpgs. You can have all(?) 3 keys by this point in the game, but getting the red one was a drag.

next game is interesting. Not played it or the first one but I know that one shows up a lot in Sega's retro collections

how easy is Saturn emulation, I've got it in my head that it used to be a nightmare but maybe things changed

it's pretty easy nowadays, the mednafen saturn core is pretty accurate and available in both retroarch and bizhawk.

yeah "hunt" is a separate category of attacks than "physical" and they do way more damage or have a higher instakill chance if the enemy is frightened. That dungeon was the first one I didn't fully explore because it was so long and twisty but I liked the red key puzzle despite encounters happening like every 3 steps inside it

before you level too much i heard a cool strat for demifiend.

pick the two people you want in your party and the second you get to the luck/magic noise farming areas max both of those stats. then the AI will only put stats into str/agi/vit which are much more of a pain in the rear end to farm

I read that strategy too so I'm going through ng+ with solo serph as much as possible to keep their levels down. I go through like 50 random fights wiping them instantly with death flies then almost die to a 3 random demon group that only uses basic attacks cause one got a crit lol

fun start to the year. thanks for picking, the kins. i played this one a lot as a kid but never beat it before. i would just unlock the hadouken, get to sigma and get bored and start over again. so it’s nice to get closure.
