Lunar Threads

I'm going through The Talos Principle right now. I just enjoy the puzzles, and would ignore the computer interaction bits, but my wife is doing that part. At some point I plan to go back and get those gold stars that are hidden around the world. Right now I'm working through the last levels in the l...

Still too busy to sit down and write up the conclusion (sorry!), but I did pick up Lunar 2 for the PS1 this weekend.

I'm not playing it soon, my wife wants a break. But I plan to play it together with her as well, and post here about it in the future.

Still really busy, and I want to write up my thoughts on the ending, and strengths and weaknesses of the game, when I have time to sit down and give it a proper effort.

Tl;DR before the big essay, it's a great game, and it's going into my favorite rpgs. What a treat.

So moments ago, Ghaleon did this to the party for 3 to 4 times their amount of health. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-i4IY2igmxZQ/VQCle0KX0DI/AAAAAAAAAF4/agAPVq2h-_I/s320/ironman09.gif I've been informed that the attack is called Hell Wave, but years of MvC won't let me see anything but Unibeam....

I beat the last boss last night. Ghaleon the damage sponge just KEPT GOING, so by the time he finally went down it was pretty late and my wife had to get up early. So I saved after the fight and we'll watch the ending tonight. Then I can complete my write up, and give my review. Wooooooo. EDIT: Spen...

I'm not dead! I've just had some very busy weekends, and weekends are typically when my wife and I play the game together. My friend is recovering from thyroid cancer, so I went to visit him earlier, and then this weekend I had a race. 222535088_4101847819883308_2886544922544725756_n.jpg I'm glad th...

The last time we tuned in, we were enjoying the garden of "Ghaleon's The Grindery™: Brought to you by Taben and The Vile Tribe." We spoke with some pixies and VeeTeetians who had the now typical spread of opinions that ranged from Ghaleon being a strong leader who will crush us, to Ghaleon...

Well, I know they're supposed to be indigenous to the planet, and usually big. Then the Solarins did experiments on them to limit their size, and use them. Then apparently Chu Chu learned how to control the size changing ability. We can pretend that when she was captured they removed her growth limi...

Nothing big here, just a quick update to let everyone know I'm not dead. Haven't had a chance to play much recently. We're up to the garden area in The Grindery, and my wife did a little level grinding around the area the other day. Characters are all around level 40, so we're fine there. Hope to ha...

I'll have to follow the links for a closer look when I have more time, but this is very interesting.

Good ol' Chu Chu. I have to admit this moment was not one I expected at the time.

Tsk Tsk. It's our duty as fans to think way too hard about these things and come up with ridiculously complex theories strung together from arbitrary details in the game.

It's tradition!

See, I thought that's how it was supposed to be too, but my wife pointed out something. In Pao village there's the old man that you think is sick, but it turns out he was just asleep, so probably not. Fair enough. But there was another hut where a lady was worried about her boyfriend who was sickene...

How far along did you get?

No major updates in story development, just a fun evening of my wife wandering around talking to folks; Ramus is making money off all the recent developments, some Dragonmaster groupie in Saith wants to meet Alex at her house for adult hugging, we learned Jess thinks the fact that Vane can turn into...

With the ladies rescued, the adventurers make their way through the mines to some sort of a control/activation room where they meet Taben. It appears Taben is the creator of The Grindery (so in my head, he is a night club promoter). Considering he plays such a pivotal role in Ghaleon's plans, I find...

I really enjoyed the first Xenosaga game. I beat Great Joe, Mintia, got Erd Kaiser, etc. I doubt completed it 100%, but I spent time with it. The second game is a challenge for me. I actually have never played the third game even though I have it. I want to play the second game first, and I always g...

I noticed my local game store has Eternal Blue Complete for about $120, and I'm thinking of getting it if it's still there and I have money to burn. Other than that, I plan to play though the first two Trails of Cold Steel games and my wife and I will play through Trails in the Sky before we move on...

Nice. I've always really liked the original, but I thought it was one of those unappreciated gems. I guess if it's getting a remake it was much more popular than I thought. I hope they take the 2-player aspect and bring it online. That would be a nice addition without really changing important parts...

Anyone else thinking of getting the Legend of Mana remake when it releases?

EDIT: Currently playing some Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown. It's free for me, and Sega put a lot of work into it.
