  1. LOL, it's such a small throwaway line by a random #NPC, and I doubt many a player will actually read it since you don't really have a reason to talk to this character, especially not after you first encounter him, but it's still quite funny imho as it's a reference to one of your party members.

    Sadly your party doesn't react to it. :(

    I like it when NPCs in an #RPG
    reward you for going back to previous towns and talk to then when you don't really have a need to, by actually saying something different.

    (In this game it's a bit of a mixed bag though. Some say something different, others were clearly not expecting you to return, or weren't expecting you to return before a certain party member had joined you again.)

  3. Started playing #Lufia2: #RiseOfTheSinistrals again, this time with the #FrueLufia patch. :)

    It'll probably take a while before I get to the Ancient Cave though.

  5. Watched a #speedrun of #Lufia 2: Rise of the Sinistrals for the #SNES in the Iris% category, where they have to collect all the Iris Treasures from the Ancient Cave in that game.
    Definitely makes me itch to play that game again, though this time with some patches such as a retranslation and restoration of censored graphics (religious icons for example were removed from the North American release). Probably the #FrueLufia one.
    But it'll definitely be on an emulator where I can use savestates or rewind... the Ancient Cave can be brutal, and after getting a total party wipeout on a fully healed team without a chance to heal or hit back many years ago, I don't think I've attempted it again...
    (You basically get reset back to level 1 and lose all your equipment for the duration of the run, and only get to use equipment you found in blue chests in previous runs (and took out of the cave by finishing the cave, or by using an escape item you can find from floor 20 or up).)

  6. Played some #Lufia #CurseOfTheSinistrals on the #NintendoDS earlier. I was hoping for a bit modern version of #Lufia2 #RiseOfTheSinistrals, but the first half hour or so was a rather disappointing experience. It has a completely different mood to it. Not just because the typical #SNES era top-down #RPG perspective has been replaced by a 3D-ish one, and turn based combat is now an active #actionRPG one, but the whole story and characters feel different. It feels dumbed down...
