Anybody else think it’s weird that the gem mines that produce most of the world’s precious gems were on a floating prison island? I mean, there’s only so far you can dig on a floating island before you fall out the bottom of it. You would think this would put a hard cap on how many gems you could mine out of there.

That's using logic. Logic has no place here.

Until proven otherwise, I will choose to believe that your character for this game is a sapient hairstyle, choosing to possess whoever that bald guy was because his hairlessness left him unable to resist. You're not yet very good at puppeting the body, alas.

Why would we want to go right back to the place we just came from without the spell needed to get all the secrets?

Nonetheless, I'm picking Azure Cove. Goku needs a tan.

This game really needs a sewer level to throw Magus in.

Mines might be a close enough substitute.

We were just in the mines. It's kind of pointless to go back before we have access to Shrink.

In true Megaman style, we should take on the Azure Cove next. Unicorn beats water, that's just science.

I reckon our Magus has been working awfully hard, what with all that magical death he's been indiscriminately unleashing in his quest to own everything he can't kill/kill everything he can't own. He could really use a vacation--maybe some charming hidden nook where the turquoise waters play.

This is why I vote to send him to the Burial Grounds, to research new and exciting ways to defile and torment the dead.

Huh, Jorel is quite reasonable. "Pick a fight with a God, or keep my head and wait for the storm to blow over. I'll not do the thing which gets me killed!"

My d4 again gave me a 1. I told it to have some more variety like a quiz show host nudging a contestant away from a wrong answer, and it obliged with a 4 instead. So let's go back to the Mines.

Burial grounds, I guess.

Also, where the gently caress does Magus get off spouting stuff about morality?

I can't get over the "I have a rod up my rear end" walk animation waddle. Especially when sped up. The game's scenery is boring brown and gray and everything is samey but that's what really sticks out to me.

He heard the jokes about bringing Communism to the kingdom and took them to heart.

Speaking of places where everybody is made equal: I also think we should go to the Burial Grounds. Azure Cove had lots of sand. The next destination shouldn't have lots of sand.

The "attraction" dialogue sounds awfully presumptuous of Goku wizard. "I dunno you're a god and I guess that's cool." "Sounds like you want to lick my balls." "What? Shut up."

Jokatgulm is tedium.

Jokatgulm is suffering.

I had a moment of hope during the azure cove that they did something interesting. They had Magus suck up blue magic from the seashells so I though that they would have the colour sources be thematic outside of the big magic rocks, but it seems like I was wrong since every other source seems to just be recoloured for every magic type. Though I will "admire" the game's honesty of just calling them Blue ,Green , Red instead of trying to give actual names to the magic types.
