Are you going to redo every terrible LP of a great Jrpg on the archive?

I'm ok with that.

In other news, I commend your decision to stick with the original names. (Much as I was looking forward to "no no no, where I come from 'Kike' is a perfectly innocent word")

There's a new enemy here, the Carve Spider. No big deal.
My first association was "what if Harvey had a Spider persona. Like... jazz-y sax-playing Spider". I dunno, I need to sleep instead of reading LPs.

You're probably looking into Alexandria's succession politics infinitely more than the developers did.

The father was the king. His wife, the Queen, took over after his death. Garnet will succeed Brahne.
Why would you think that? Is the game poorly researched when it comes to (for instance) its theatrical influence?

Sum Mors posted:

I think it came about because very few monarchies in general were "typical". The deal of succession is different in every monarchy and the rules changed with every succession because of political intrigue and murder and plot and all that. It's never been cut and dry and anyone with the will to kill could usurp and make up new rules as to why they were legitimate.
No. Most examples of anything are "typical", because that's what the word means, monarchies included. If we were to talk about salic law (simplified - only males get to inherit) you could go on about how it's not necessarily the common standard. But the order of inheritance going from parent to child is pretty much the rule.

...

I realize few of us know or care much about the rules and customs of monarchies (despite the sad fact that we still have quite a few monarchies around) - which is absolutely fine. Just... don't start explaining things you don't know or care about?

As some posters have said, it'll probably also result in any airships aloft at the time to come crashing down and likely killing the crew and passangers, plus crippling trade for the continent.

Ipsen? Who's that?
Ipsen is a character from a play, but he's a real-life adventurer. I think the play is based on his adventures.




Is that the music that's supposed to play at that point? Weird if so.

Also, I still have no idea what's the song Dagger is singing you keep going about but don't link.

It helps that the lead isn't Terra, Cloud, or Squall
Great LP or no, people will forever think of Cloud as his Vincent/Squall hybrid AU version. :/

You know, the first thing I've ever seen in any way related to FF9 was this. Can't say the actual game measures up to what my imagination had drawn based on those FMV fragments.

Still, this was a solid LP. Thanks for completing it.
