    Alright the wolves leave and Cid and Luso discuss finding his home

    0058.png0059.png

    He says he wishes he had paid more attention to it

    0060.png0061.png

    They then notice a journal on Luso's person, and both are confused by it

    0062.png

    Ye...................no?

    0063.png0064.png

    Oh my

    0065.png

    A convenient excuse

    So they decide this must be linked the the magic book that sent him here and want to learn more about it

    0066.png

    He decides a wizard would, despite knowing nothing about this world. We head back to the pub

    0067.png0068.png

    Apparently bandits are blocking the road and asking for money and such

    0069.png0070.png

    I like how he just jumps in to things without much thought

    So Cid decides he's going to ditch me to study my journal or something

    0071.png0072.png

    Uh huh

    So now I can choose to do this optional quest:

    0073.png

    Or I can skip straight to the story quest:

    0074.png

    You guys decide

    The side quests in this game are definitely better than the main quest, so I vote to do as many of them as you can, as early as possible.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    I will do all of the sidequests I can!

    Let's do some now, actually!



    Hmm all of my characters have reaction abilities and I don't care enough to take them off. Oh well!



    Right...



    HOW DO YOU EVEN KNOW THIS



    Umm, sorry.



    Yes, really

    So like rational adults, they decide its time to fight! Sure enough, I get penalized



    Something of note that happens in battle:



    So our Moogle pall uses Fury!



    The battle goes on for a while and I accidentally use a suicide attack with my bangaa (oops ) and eventually I win



    They allow me to use the Green Mage job and also offer for me to meet with them and chant and stuff every month! Luso declines



    Now on with the story mission!





    No



    I had something else in mind



    This of course leads to a battle since we insulted their bandit pride also by implying we'd never heard of them



    In this fight I use everyone but the Nu Mou



    The battle goes on for a little while before I am finally victorious!



    Yaaay we have an MVP



    Alrighty!



    They then have a bit of a spat when Luso talks about touristy things and Cid thinks he isn't taking things seriously



    Some mission results there.

    Also, need more help from you. Decide which skill to improve first



    In the meantime, I'm going to do 2 more side missions!



    First one!



    All of that is pretty straightforward



    Of course there are monsters just hanging out everywhere



    By going to the conveniently shiny squares!

    I find a few things that aren't the thing I'm looking for...



    Ew

    But finally:



    I like how the randoms actually talk in this game



    And I got a cactus fruit for another mission later!

    Next mission:



    No problem



    Well that makes healing a little more of a pain in the butt

    Thankfully, my Viera can heal one square at a time



    Well they're being rude



    And we of course decide to jump in and help him!

    After a long enough battle, I finally manage to win!



    EXCUSE ME



    Uh huh

    He does unlock the dragoon class though! Which would be super cool if I didn't use a class unlocking cheat



    Yaay MVP I always like it when there's an MVP. It's like rewarding them for their good work!



    And that's all I have for now!

    Remember to pick the clan skill

    Thanks for reading

    Most Clan Trial unlock a new Clan Skill in addition to the stat boosts. They can be repeated indefinitely.

    The points stack constantly, and are used to unlock missions, so don't be afraid to do them all if you haven't unlocked all skills or maxed the clan stats.


    Also, the laws can be a bit weird. Knockback, for example, will ruin you if you get a crit.


    "Jump" in to help the Dragoon. Heh.

    I used a cheat code so I could get my posts up sooner without having to do extra grinding and stuff

    She's bending certain circumstances. It also doesn't start you with all jobs unlocked or all abilities learned.

    Personally, I'm fine with it. This is all for fun anyway.

    Yeah I'm mostly trying to show the story but I'm terrible at tactics games games so they take me a good amount of time to get through. Plus I have a job now, so when I do get a chance to play, this way I can breeze through it more easily and get the updates up

    Ohhh, I didn't know you could do that. Reminds me of back in the late 80's and early 90's when cheat codes in games were normal. The challenge was finding a magazine that would have them. x)

    Oh, they're not built in codes. Most emulators come with Action Replay features built in, though, so since she's emulating the game, she can cheat.

    I kind of wish more games had them built in too. Challenge is great, but sometimes you just want to have fun.

    Update time!

    Some more sidequests~



    This one was pretty easy. No fight or anything.



    Very straightforward person

    Luso asks if he really wants to give up the book or if he would rather just try and find a cactus fruit on his own



    Aww that's sad

    But on the brightside, doing that allowed the boys life to be saved, yay



    Now I will be killing bunnies for a dish



    How convenient that they're weak against fire



    THIS MATH IS BEYOND ME





    Sure enough, the fight is won and the man gets his bunnies



    Now that that's done, we get to hit the road to Camoa!





    Luso is impressed



    Cid tells me of someone he knows who might have information



    This really sketchy fellow



    Cid wants to know if he knows where we can find a wizard



    The Seeq makes some comments that are useless so we start to leave when he calls us back saying he might know someone



    Cid is suspicious and Luso goes all out thinking this is regular tomato picking when I think its fairly obvious these are going to be killer tomatoes

    But before we get to that, sidequest time!



    I get to find a beetle in a haystack!



    This is actually a pretty easy mission and it doesn't take too long. However, the scarab beetle was of course like the second to last shiny I searched :/



    And that's all for now

    Next time its us VS killer tomatoes!
