These are apparently some of the worst soldiers in history.

Well, Leon's kind of entitled... but at least he's willing to accept responsibility too.

That water dragon boss is a major pain, which is not helped when he's resistant to your weapon.

Ethelbird obviously has more than a few screws loose. Also: Doug does his only useful thing in the entire game! Well, except maybe that one time where you were getting the Rune Spheres the first time, but that barely counts.

I think the word you're looking for to describe those things on the ground is "tiles."

No, you can not tame tanks. Or those flying turret things, for that matter.

One use for the "garbage" items you can find, such as Weeds, is to just use them to weigh down buttons here. Hey, if you've gotta drop something anyway might as well make it something that has little to no other use, right?

I bet everyone's surprised when the protagonist wins the eating contest, since Porco's a contestant too. I mean, out-eating a member of HIS family is no small accomplishment, and managing to do so without winding up LOOKING like one is just ridiculous.

Recipe Bread+ is probably too much effort to get; fortunately, if you know the recipe (or just have a FAQ on the subject) and have the ingredients then you don't actually need to know how to make stuff in-character.

That was my assumption as well. If it was a straight eating contest there's no way he'd ever lose. Making it require traits besides merely having a mouth and a stomach allows lesser mortals a chance to compete. Pity they haven't figured out how to do that for the fishing contests.

Fritz does what frankly I'd do in his situation: brag to hell and back about landing a girl far beyond his league.

Side note: all of Rune Factory 4's footage has now been recorded and edited. The LP is officially 45 parts long. gently caress me, only Ni no Kuni was longer than that if you include the screenshot updates, (and I guess my livestream LP of Pokemon Alpha Sapphire). I don't think Skippy and Yami will make it.

Please tell me you can wear it to your wedding with Fritz. Please.

He has to know, once and for all, without a shadow of a doubt, just how much of an incredible nerd Best is. You're getting married to her, Fritz. There's no escaping this rabbit hole.

The town's collective crotches explode.

Next week we return to RF4 for the end of Act 2, then the week after is SoS's final three updates, and the last week of September is AP's final two updates. It's a month of conclusions.

Yes, fondue is still popular. There's a local restaurant called The Melting Pot that supposed to be really good.

So I'm finally catching up on these videos and man was HM: AP #25 aptly named. Not for the Animal Parade, I wasn't looking at that but for making me realize that morning radio shock jockey is an LP aesthetic that I am all about.

That was a good loving update. And I say that without even having a screen to look at while it was playing.

Pretty sure that Sechs Golem is one of the few mobile monsters you are not allowed to tame, boss or otherwise. (Incidentally? I'm pretty sure it's pronounced "zex.")

I kinda prefer the parallel laser to the delta one, specifically because it's more focused. Also, not sure if you guys realize this, but the water spells' main strength is that you can hold the button and the spell will continue until you let go or run out of RP.

As you might expect, the tank can't be tamed either. Actually, I'm pretty sure you can't tame any mechanical enemies, though I'm not sure where golems fit into that.

It's kind of a pity that despite their fairly liberal use of explosives, nobody ever refers to them as Sechs Bombs that I can recall.
