The day I've been hoping and waiting for since the Koudelka LP has arrived! This is easily one of my favorite games of all time and I'm really excited to see it get the Id treatment. I may even have to dust off my PS2 and play along.

I like how they give one-off NPCs elemental affinities. "General Heimann sure did love throwing around those fireballs in his younger days!"

GimmickMan posted:I genuinely would have never expected to see people singing the praises of a game tutorial turned into a.... recurring mentor type character? Is that what's going to happen here? I'm not asking for spoilers, mind, I'm thinking out loud. Or writing out in a forum post, I guess. Just keep in mind what series this is and who our protagonist is.

Nicolai sliding backwards ten feet on his rear end with his legs up in the air not once, but twice will never not be funny.

Karin also appears on the cover of the game, with Yuri nowhere in sight. Her outfit was definitely made to sell copies to horny teenage boys.

Blanca is the best. Yuri and Ernest are all jazzed over this whole Wolf Bout idea, and Blanca's just like: "This is dumb. I have so many other things I'd rather be doing."

Commander Keene posted:Seems like they have some sort of deal, where Gepetto is apparently these folks' smut supplier in exchange for dresses for his creepy magic puppet. Considering this game is set back in 1915, it's probably pretty hard to find gay porn. Remember that this is Shadow Hearts Universe-1915.

Joachim and everyone associated with him continue to be the best part of the game. The Great Gama, incidentally, was a real person.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Just as a side-note, you're not completely crippled if you miss the new local object Joachim decides is a worthy weapon. After a while they pop up in the shop like a regular weapon. That's true but they usually only show up once you hit the next tier of weapons with everyone else, so Joachim will be lagging behind. They're all pretty easy to spot though except for one towards the back half of the game that can be easily overlooked.

Joachim picks up Yuri, who picks up Karin, who picks up Blanca. A daisy chain of smackdown.

At least unused party members in this game still get some experience, so they don't fall as far behind as poor old Zhuzhen.

I think Id mentioned it way back at the start of the LP but the subtitles deviate from the dialogue a lot. I think they were written using an earlier version of the script, or a different translation.

Kobal2 posted:(TBH Joachim's rythms are kind of in the same boat - trying to game out how to have in in Grand Papillon mode for a hardcore boss, or conversely having to do a boss fight with him in bat form can be a pain in the dick ; but at least you know exactly which pain exactly where on your dick from the get go) They're still more predictable than any of Lucia's effects. Joachim's status screen straight up tells you what form he'll turn into next and in how many battles.

This is also my first exposure to the Director's Cut material so it's really interesting to see. The end of that dungeon really helps tie some things together that seemed out of left field originally.

There's a few pretty well-known voice actors in this game. Anastasia is voiced by Stephanie Sheh, for instance. But the majority of them are credited under pseudonyms.
