Sorry for the humongous delay. My academic endeavors have been keeping my large brain at bay. Now, let us engage in more Lufing.
Welcome to the fabulous town of Elcid!
Close, but not quite as fabulous as this guy.
So apparently the whole town is in on board the Maxim/Tia ship. That is, everyone except Maxim himself, because, like all shonen protagonists, he's got all the sensitivity level of a teaspoon. Also, you can't see it on his map sprite, but Maxim has one magnificent coiff.
I want his stylist here. Like now. We need to talk.
Indeed it is! Some people are concerned about the growing monster population, but others have more pressing matters to attend to.
I smell a subquest!
"... Whatever it was, I think it had boobs."
"Like, I know, right?"
"Oh, don't be silly! I'm sure it's just gas."
So as I take a walk around town, I notice there is a church here. You guys probably know I'm a big fan of churches, so I go in. It's all nice and churchy and I just wanna pray but it turns out churches are extremely useful in this game!
Oh game. You so clever and fourth wall-breaking.
So yeah, churches allow you to save. You can't save on the world map, but you get save points in dungeons. Seems pretty fair. Just keep in mind, you guys, that I don't intend to use the emulator's save states. I want this to be as close to a normal playthrough of the game. We'll see how long I can make it with that mindset
So I go to the spell shops. Apparently, everyone in this game can learn spells, but not all of them. Still, the prices are pretty over the roof, so I can't buy any now anyway. And this girl gives me a nice explanation of how to target multiple enemies with them.
Alright game, we need to talk. It was funny once. Now it's just stupid.
I've visited most of the town now. The inn's free of charge for me, which is pretty neat. I guess despite being a dick Maxim is still pretty well liked in this town. But of course. Otherwise, Al-Cid would have to deal with the constant invasions of demonic jellies. Anyway, I go South to leave town and meet this guy.
Oh, cool! I love secret techniques!
"... If you know what I mean."
Alright! That's it for now. Join me next time as I follow this old man into his dungeon, hoping he can show me some useful... techniques
Now, let us engage in more Lufing.
