Different party but I am currently playing as well. I am also blind, having not even played the original for more than a few hours.

I think you need to switch between party members more.

Re: why Mintas was left alone--it's already Ferolian territory. With the human-hating part of the beastmen away on the front-lines, the more tolerant beastmen can live in harmony with their neighbors. (Though I forget how many of those in Mintas are actually humans, and how many untransformed beastmen)

I think all of them are untransformed Beastmen. As they remark on the party for being humans.

Hawkeye would be Royal if Flamekhan were actually a king.

Hawkeye is the grandson of Flamekhan. His mother, Falcon, was Flamekhan's daughter by his first wife. Jessica and Eagle are Flamekhan's children via his second wife. So Jessica is actually Hawkeye's aunt.

I thought this was only quasi canonical. And is for sure not mentioned in this game.

Huh. I just did the "wake Angela up in Jadd" thing, and... turns out she has pointy ears. I never noticed that detail.

This, in turn, got me looking more closely at everyone else, and apparently everyone in this world has them.

Which is weird, cause I wonder what sets them apart from the Elves other then that they live longer.

Pretty sure it's explained in at least one route that the Darkstone got sent to Mavolia (Hell, for those of you not familiar with Mana lore) somehow, and the Dark Benevodon got dragged along with it. Probably involved a few human sacrifices to pull off, knowing this game.


Belladonna and Malocchio (Fun fact his name is Italian for Evil Eye. Taking after his JP name Earl of the Evil Eye) state earlier that his Dark Majesty used up his remaining power and died to send the Darkstone back to the human realm from Mavolia.

Goremand meanwhile was "death eating man."

The villains in the original did not seem to have proper names.

I will always like the name Death Jester more than Goremand.

Anyway:

Nature
Light
Light


I like Goremand more. Cause it actually works as a clever translation of his name.

I feel you need to use Class Strikes more for your allies. There is never a shame in swapping.

So light spoiler, the Boss after this is going to be the Benevodon of Light which gives us two left!

If you could vote on which of the Ice and Earth Benevedons you'd rather I see first then I would be grateful!

Earth

Huh I think you are going to catch up to the last Benevodon level wise. Like the original it was also the one that gave me the most trouble.

Weird Malocchio did not use some of his more dangerous attacks. Or in one case only used at the very end where it would not be very effective.

Also his poor adds. They really need more hp.

The hell you just said Faerie's Ability was not good. That is absurdly good. Recovering your MP every 10 seconds for the whole party is great.

I don't want to support Lowtax at all if I can avoid it. Practically that means no more buying things from the forums, but also encouraging anyone supporting him on Patreon to stop and anyone else to also not buy anything. I'm fine posting here, it doesn't make me uncomfortable but I know that it does for some and I can absolutely accept that stance.

Here is hoping Lowtax is booted like the Modmins want.

Heavy recommend for Bloodstained. I like it even better than Symphony. (Minus a few silly things. But I can live with them.)
