I'm not sure that's still in this version. Gathering people for the Haven involves seeking out specific people (who are actually reformed monsters) that the last person you found tells you about.

Ooh, now we're gonna have to duel someday I'm gonna need to brush up my skills a bit, but with you perhaps I'll finally have a worthy Theatrhythm opponent!

You're almost there, though! I know the Karma Temple is long, but it's one dungeon. Just a little longer and you'll get there!

As for my DQ adventure, I have Sir Mervyn in my party, and the current composition is: Gladiator (Auster), Champion (Ruff), Martial Artist (Sir Mervyn) and Druid (Maribel). Mervyn's already mastered Mage and Warrior and the first intermediate class he's gonna take on is the Armamentalist and the class really looks awesome on him. Also, now that I have the flying carpet, I collected a crapload of fragments, which means that there is no clear sequence in which I'm supposed to be visiting the areas now. The first one I did was the one with the golden Goddess statue. That was pretty cool and bittersweet. I'm also a bit worried I won't manage to get al the mini medals for King Maximo. I heard you need 100 of them to get the fragment he has, but I only have 55 so far and I am very much afraid I've missed some hidden ones

I hope it helps that I'm at my intermediate vocations now

Ugh, don't you hate it when they do that?

So basically everyone's always excited the bridge is opening tomorrow but when you rest at the inn, it's always the same day. So I went in and stopped the clock in the tower and now I'm sucked into a painting.

Ooh, the climax! Right? Was that the final dungeon? I can't remember. I just know that it was looping.

So it appears this town has a Groundhog Day Loop! Noooooooooo

Pretty much.

I beat Orochi last night, guy was more of a pain to deal with then Beelzebub surprisingly enough, but I'm finally off to Karma Temple.

So kinda like in GQVI

Oh really? We'all see how that goes. Style has been a useless stat so far, but it just so happens that Maribel just became a Luminary.

Okay, so I reached this town with the clocktower and everyone is speaking with Spanish phrases thrown in and I kinda love how the architecture and this "El Maestro" character who seems to be an integral part of this storyline are pretty clearly based on Antoni Gaudi's work. It made me squee because it reminds me of our trip to Barcelona so much.


I kinda wish they'd done more research though as Gaudi was actuallya pioneer in that all of the stuff he designed was way more comfortable and human-friendly than anything at the time, and yet in the game they complain that this dude makes stuff for art's sake and forgets about people, but eh, I'll take it. I'm still incredibly happy with the reference.

Oh, well that's awesome! My story is still on hold while I flesh out ideas. Also, there's been some headway in the MA thesis thing, so that's kind of the only thing I do besides DQ, but I'll probably get more to writing once I get both of those things done!

Do you intend to get the 3DS remake?
