I actually had that in the script, it just got cut for some reason. Sometimes I get a little cut-happy, try to tighten stuff up a bit.

you just gotta use certain characters for certain fights. Gohan unlocks Guldo, Goku unlocks Recoome, Vegeta unlocks Ginyu, etc. There're lists online for everything, but you can only get them on repeat playthroughs. You can do it!

Especially Yang like all that juice shrunk his brain

damn bro i said beat breath of fire 3 not mutilate it. i think my end-game stats were only 150~ INT or so, possibly even less, so I do wonder what kind of pain a maxed intelligence would cause through the adult section. probably looking at 3-4 digits for everything

@Caspicum Yeah, I have a habit of doing that. Back when I played the game, I always leveled up to 99 before fighting Myria. 999 INT might sound OP, but it's actually not. I once did it with Nina, and she was super powerful in the mid game, but in the end game, Ryu & Rei outshined her anyway.

If I recall correctly, resting only gives you back your HP and if it affects tiredness at all, it's so minor you'd only get one extra training sesh out of it. I specifically remember it not affecting it, but it may have just been so minor that it didn't matter.

@@Caspicum Nah dude, it straight up eliminates tiredness. You probably wore out your digimon so much that you would have required multiple rests. By the time the rest bubble shows up your digimon is extremely exhausted which is why it's good to find out how many training sessions you can do before it pops up and rest before then. If you rest at the clinic centarmons dialogue even changes as you rest more and he notes the varying levels of tiredness.

Generally what I found was that I'd hit the squirt emoji and by the time I'd rested once or twice, enough for another training session, my Digman would want to sleep for the night anyway. I don't remember how I said it in the video, but I knew about resting, I just know that it's definitely not a way around tiredness, and barely offset it to a useable degree. That said, I didn't know you could rest in the Clinic, that's new to me.

@@Caspicum Ah, yes it is true that they're usually close to bedtime by the time you need to rest. It is helpful for maintaining high happiness and discipline though. Yes, if I remember correctly towards the end the house gets remodeled and you lose the sleep chair so you have to use the clinic. you can also get free treatment if your monster is sick or hurt and you don't have enough bits to pay.

if it has items, I will do it.

@@Caspicum i dont remember if that game has combat items XD

That's a bummer, but it's not for everyone. There's a certain point where it crosses from being a standard rush of enemies, and moves to enemies stealing your weapons and either becoming hyper-powered, or O.B.ing it off the edge, leaving you to think on your feet. That point probably comes a bit later than it should, but there's actual challenge there, which can't be stomped with stats. It forces you out fo your comfort zone, which is definitely antithetical to Disgaea

NO, IT'S MY SIDIA YOU CAN'T HAVE IT. I had a feeling as I was saying it. You know when you say those obviously Japanese phonetic words and you catch yourself in real time? That was ya boi. ty brokashyo

I wouldn't've been the first for sure, but I found maybe two other mentions of it, both of which were joked about 15~ years ago. It speaks to how buried this series became, and how nobody really cares about it. Damn shame too, there's probably a horde of stuff like this.

I"M GONNA FUCK A DUDE

If you leave out what I said before and after, sure it doesn't make a lot of sense. If it's sandwiched between me saying "I guess it's data, so it makes sense, it just seems a little too abstract to concretely effect." then I don't see an issue. My gripe was less that you can change code to make programs do different things, and more that the Digivolution tree is a concept. Does it apply to every monster, or just tamers/ours? Why aren't other tamers fixing it? Why did they only cut off select routes and not all Digivolution? How am I seeing monsters Digivolve before my eyes and higher-stages exist? Does it only destroy the bridge to becoming the monster, or is the monster itself affected? It just seems like a backwards story inclusion to justify the new gimmick mechanic is what I was saying. If a 10-second sentence, reliant on what comes before and after it makes the entire 16-minute video bad, I'd say that's a non-issue.

Welcome to the society of secret sewers. The name might need a rework. Secret sewing society doesn't have the right flare

classic boomer hubris. that said, NDS is officially boomer-tier now too

Or, going off the rule of having to walk, maybe “A Literal Walk Through… (insert game title)”?

There was *kinda* one, but not really. 7 Trials to Glory had the world map like those games, but more of the World Championship systems for duels. It's not as good, but if you're desperate for a similar experience, it's kinda there.

@@Caspicum That wasn’t the same

i've never thirsted over anything other than pure, fluoride and plastic-infested water, like god intended
