Diath 2 and Dylan 2 │ D&D: Eye of the Beholder [GBA] Part 3

[@voltcorp]

"this game sucks but I want to give it another go" yup sounds like the retro dungeon crawler experience alright

[@tljscrewjob6397]

26:44 I love how Jared looked away while Rose was casting turn undead and missed all the spell not hitting.

[@tljscrewjob6397]

30:53 I love how all these kobolds and zombies are just having dance parties and Jared and the rest of the party are killing them for it.

[@ARCWuLF]

Jared: "It'll get better when I have Weapon Finesse." Also Jared: Skips getting "Weapon Finesse" on his level-up.

[@Malkavian_Grin]

The Rogue would only be level 2 I believe. Feats are 1st , 3rd, and every 3 levels after that if I recall. What you saw was the Fighter getting a choice of bonus Feat. :) I learned how to play from 3.5e so it's stuck there :p

[@sheakennedy-ordway1156]

Jared, please don't skip this comment. You can raise dead characters with a cleric in the golden hammer inn. Also, take some time to practice with the menus, I know the interface is klunky but it's not impossible to maximize your party potential.

[@Yide29]

Falchion is 2-handed, you have to unequip your shield first.

[@schwarzerritter5724]

I thought it is a type of scimitar.

[@Yide29]

@@schwarzerritter5724 It is, but in 3rd ed they made it a big 2 handed scimitar.

[@masonmario495]

@@schwarzerritter5724 They're not typically 2 handers IRL, and they are kind of similar to scimitars

[@Psianth]

And rogues are very much not proficient with them. If this game cares about that he has a pretty hefty penalty to using it with Jerd

[@Mr_Wulff]

Rose is carrying the party through this dungeon.

[@breathstealer5486]

Jared: 3 doors Me: I guess if you check them all you'd be three doors down

[@apollolux]

You get a slow clap and a like from me.

[@pharmcat8484]

Kryptonite

[@DJVolte]

Woooo I was hoping there'd be more

[@RichiPuppi]

I came in here to say the same thing.

[@Zulk_RS]

Same. Love watching Jared Play old DnD games.

[@HaussmannComics]

It's actually really growing on me. After the first one, I was like....I'll probably sit this series out. But by three I'm hoping he plays for a while haha

[@renatocorvaro6924]

Protection from Evil (or any of its equivalents) is actually extremely strong in 3rd. It blocks all forms of mind control; the actual AC/save bonus against evil stuff is pretty much ancillary. Every high-level adventurer in 3E has a Protection from Evil earring or something. Also, Jared is not proficient with the falchion.

[@TigerNightmare]

The different damage voices makes me imagine them being attacked in very specific ways. Man's 'Uuhh!': punched in the stomach Man's 'Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh': hit in the balls Woman's 'Ooihhhhhhh!': punched in the stomach Woman's 'WAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!': a spider almost touched her

[@Kerrpllardy]

Woooh! More Jerd and weird classic D&D games!

[@jacethomas5562]

the walls echo with the sound of fluid SPURTING and ppl screaming wtf were they going for 😂

[@zachfutv9986]

The chance to hit the enemy with a melee shot is based on STR unless you have weapon finesse, which uses STR or DEX (whichever is higher).

[@Failedlegend]

sooo...i went and beat the whole game :D tis all your fault Jared :P Party Cleric - 1h+shield Cleric - 2h Rogue - Bow Fighter - Bow Wizard x2 - Magic

[@lan5979]

I ran into a weird glitch that underflows the stats and gave my characters infinite dex

[@Failedlegend]

@@lan5979 yeah the game is hella buggy but was still fun :D

[@Failedlegend]

@@lan5979 oh and fun fact none of the armor limits how much your dex can add to AC so you can wear full plate and would still get +4 ac from an 18dex, i kept my armor thematic anyways

[@RadimuxCisco]

Having a full party most likely helps a lot in this game. I don't think it has any scaling based on the amount of characters or even levels.

[@bearbeard6604]

More, please! This game is a trainwreck I can't look away from!

[@saltybeard7607]

I have vague memories of playing this when I was in like high school. I think I only played through it once.

[@expressionamidstcacophony390]

Ah yes, a rousing game of "who cares what your stats are, you will miss everything and die."

[@Failedlegend]

how do i use ? A: roughly half of them do nothing or aren't worth investing

[@RadimuxCisco]

He forgot a falchion is a two handed weapon. What a way to nerf himself. He probably has -3 to hit with it.

[@Shadowfang2k7_NEW]

Perma-Death realy sucks... i mean let em ACTUALLY die BUT also give a chance to revive like in FF1 or Golden Sun (Sanctuary, without Items) The Falchion is probably TO BIG for a DWARF to wield it SINGLE HANDED :P Also keep going please, i enjoy these "Pen and Paper" Adventures so much

[@sheakennedy-ordway1156]

It's not permanent, Jared walked right past a dwarf who can cast resurrection.

[@nikolasota4162]

Actually the falchion is 2handed in 3rd edition

[@Shadowfang2k7_NEW]

@@nikolasota4162 oh ok?

[@tljscrewjob6397]

15:35 Tadorin with the counter-archery!

[@schwarzerritter5724]

You have to play Realms of Arcana for MS DOS. It is an amazingly accurate adaption of a Pen and Paper RPG into a videogame. So accurate, you have no idea what is going on without a guide.

[@danielmechteljr2018]

Did you mean Realms of Arkania?

[@schwarzerritter5724]

@@danielmechteljr2018 Maybe? I have only played the German version.

[@danielmechteljr2018]

Loving this playthrough! Thanks Jared.

[@aggressiveprincess7905]

Damn dude, you got Xcomed hard this episode. Thought I was watch Warriors of the Eternal Sun for a moment.

[@Lore_XiV69]

did jerd edited music in the game?

[@mostlyghostey]

Yes I believe so.

[@wadewilson5712]

Well if jared drops this then Dragon Quest 3 snes ( there is a english patched version) Barahmut Lagoon , Ogre Tactics ( Final Fantasy tactics was based / a copy of this game) , Blood Omen or Terranigma are good choices or you could even go with 7th Saga or its sequel . other options would be Newtopia 1 or 2 ( its a T16 zelda type game) or the Golden Axe zelda clone game that was on the Master system

[@kilik519]

Your suffering brings me great joy

[@redwizardmatt]

I think "rat portal" is exactly what this game needs to be better.

[@kahelem6077]

Jeez what are the kobolds armor class in this game 🤣

[@johnnygames857]

Thank you for continuing this also healing ability factors in to how powerful your heal spells are it’s a passive ability :)

[@ckingful]

More DnD? Yes please!

[@OldCouchGamer1]

Those sound effects 🤣 Has anyone here played the Realms of Arkania games for MSDos? The death sounds were already used in 1993

[@wombatgirl997]

The GBA had a lot of potential and some super ambitious games, but dang was it...lacking in the sound department.

[@Malkavian_Grin]

Ayo, I feel a gif emote from this video. Call it ZombieVibe :)

[@RadimuxCisco]

I know this game isn't very good but hear me out. It is hilarious. At the end of the day, we are hear to laugh and smile with Jared... or laugh at Jared. That works most of the time too.

[@Nevermind_Oblivion]

Did they not play test their game while making it!? That miss rate is crazy high

[@jacethomas5562]

That's probably exactly why Simpler games like this had to have artificial game play time extenders like this so they could hit some minimum playtime standard and sell them at full price Like how older RPGs sometimes had INSANE encounter rates I think the other DND game he played for genesis actually had an extra -2 to hit malus applied to everyone for this specific reason

[@zannrazor8569]

Yay, Jerd and Dylan the 2nd

[@The_Badseed]

I wanted to not like this video series, but I can't stop watching. 👍

[@eirikmellesdal]

Happy DnDecember all!

[@Tortilladude333]

You should play the Elder Scrolls Arena Jared!

[@quackingshoe7545]

Jared a falchion is two handed… Dylan can’t use it because he has a shield. Jerd is now swinging with a -4 penalty for non proficiency, made up for slightly by it being masterwork

[@mostlyghostey]

I know this game isn't the greatest but I am having a lot of fun with it!

[@mercedesplay_more_kof8488]

The sfx in this game are so ridiculous. 😂

[@pharmcat8484]

Rose carrying hard

[@riemaennchen]

God the hit chance in this game in this game seems aweful.^^

[@Nevermind_Oblivion]

Maybe it's bugged? It's certainly out of wack

[@thehorsefromhorsinabout]

good call adding music this is better.

[@GrimPrism]

To equip two-handed weapons you have to unequip the left hand item first otherwise it wont show up in Eye of the Beholder. Pretty poopy and makes no sense but that why Dylan2 isnt able to equip the Falchion

[@Shield_OW]

for some reason I'm starting to love this janky little game, i mean it has a built in map, what else can you ask for?

[@D2v0n]

woo

[@jacethomas5562]

Yay dnd :3

[@brianmoyachiuz905]

How many party members can you have so that way you can win by outnumbering

[@Failedlegend]

6

[@lumierenoire4154]

They all look like Jar Jars

[@callak_9974]

heh, RATS is not what he thinks it is.

[@dantesaints4339]

EATS

[@artebirklaus]

Though the hit-rate is still seriously annoying, the game is picking up a some steam with the level-ups, greater enemy-variety and more interesting level-features =)

[@tljscrewjob6397]

19 con Dylan 2?! and 18 Dex and Con Jerd 2?

[@ezequielali9400]

i love you jared and dnd. please please please they anounced solasta 2 in the game awards play msolasta make some wakki characters

[@sabata2]

Why no Joof, Peeb, etc?

[@Lore_XiV69]

after jerd left normal boots, he didnt used their names anymore

[@napoleonfeanor]

RNGesus doesn't love you

[@expressionamidstcacophony390]

Aw god, considering the sheer amount of shit not working, search is probably straight failing more often than not. So finding everything is going to be just the worst.

[@zachfutv9986]

The game is made poorly, that's why you miss all the time.

[@TheDirtbaggrif]

You were right, this game is kinda bad.

[@healwarden]

Can’t wait to see the Rats portal
