Allarion posted:Yeah going for 100 kills was deliberately obtuse to do cause you’d have hidden women and guards you’d have to go outta your way to find and kill. I think in one case, you’d have to trigger things in a specific way so you can kill them yourself rather than through traps. It's not even the hidden ones that are rough, there's the insanely convoluted thing of not killing a single woman until right before the last boss' room which causes a woman to spawn to thank you for not killing any women and reward you with gear except instead of accepting it you just attack her instead.

EclecticTastes posted:If that's true, it's different from the SNES version, where once you kill Okyo, the Lost Spirits stop spawning. Could be a QoL change specifically for level grinding in a zero-kill run. Glagha posted:Don't worry if you feel like you missed something in the ninja chapter, it's such a weird and convoluted chapter that there's always something weird you might have never noticed because. There's a ton of secrets and weird events. As for the mimic mammet, I swear that poo poo's impossible to do blind. Even knowing roughly how to get it I managed to gently caress it up because I stepped on the cushion on the way out after putting in the coins and fell into to basement which appears to break the event because then the coin slot is still gone but there's no mimic and no way to interact anymore. It's so weird and fragile and seems to break for no reason

Fedule posted:Good christ no. When I eventually figured that particular gimmick out I started on it and after like five battles I ran the numbers on how long it would take versus the reward and just figured it wasn't worth it. I'm just glad the game came out on the one platform still mercifully free of achievements because I get to be free of extrinsic compulsions to do nonsense like that. SettingSun posted:If this game had achievements there would certainly be one for facing down the entire Crazy Bunch at once. It's kind of exhilarating facing them all down, especially with the way Gatling Gun works now compared to the SNES original.

Yeah the original Gori's laugh was quite literally just Mutley from Wacky Race/Dick Dastardly cartoons which is hilariously for that kinda lovely sidekick character. The new one by comparison is an actual laugh. Harrow posted:Yeah I think Akira's chapter would be really frustrating if I couldn't see enemy resistances. Even then, later in the chapter you start running into random grunts who are practically immune to Akira's abilities in general (they take 0 damage from something they resist and like 2 damage from everything else), which feels kinda weird, having a lot of random encounters where your main character's main skillset just stops working. I could definitely see this chapter really sucking if you also just didn't know what half of those abilities did in the first place. But I do genuinely wonder how much of that is balanced around you crafting Taro's weird goofy as hell accessory weapons.

Yeah some years ago (2015 or so?) there were a couple Live A Live crossovers that made a bunch of new art for that chapter. I believe it was 2 games: Final Fantasy Dimensions II (which is a SaGa game?) which gave us updated art of LAL's final boss(obvious massive spoilers), and something called Holy Dungeon, which is where that fancy art of the Middle Ages characters comes from (including this one very spoilery character design that isn't in EclecticTastes' link but actually ended up as the basis for a design in the remake and mentions that the cape Oersted is wearing is Straybow's).

Truxton posted:The 100 kills route has its own big gotcha with the woman who only appears to give you a reward if you didn't kill any women up until that point late in the chapter, like, after the first fight with Ode Iou late. If you killed any women up until that point she never shows up and your 100 kills run is forfeit, and there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING telling you this will happen other than already having done a run where you don't kill any women (And even then, her dialogue doesn't make it super obvious what she's rewarding you for). That one's completely mistranslated in English for some reason, because she's blatantly thanking and rewarding you for not killing any women. And you never "helped" her earlier either so it's doubly confusing how or why they messed this line up.

It was actually twenty cavemen and you had to talk to the last one that entered the room.

I think (I know EVA came out a year later it's just really funny to me to think the devs wrote the chapter the way they did as a dig to "anime ran out of money" occurrence that happens so often)

Nope, not possible. Those are two 100% conflicting instances. It's really weird that you just never run into him despite being in the chapter intro and he's still there in the credits but eh, they can't customize everything.
