Word for word what happens……glad I’m not the only one!

[@Dr_Rwede]

Trivia time, if anyone's looking to know where the indication regarding the "Full Moon Gate" is located... It's pretty tricky. See the house where you fight No. 9 the second time in Dryfield ? Good. Go there (at night obviously) and look at the moon via one of the windows there -you can do only do it ONCE. EDIT : Aya says [It's translated from French, don't take this as the exact phrasing] "It's the Full Moon. A friend once said there is a Full Moon Celebration in Japan called "The 15th Moon". But for me, it's more of a bad omen." This clue here is the ONLY time you'll have anything moon-related in the game. And you can't read it twice either, so you'd better not be mashing buttons. I usually did the puzzle like Past-Carci did, since I didn't even knew this clue existed in the first place. And a few years later, when I really paid attention to every detail -and searched every nook and cranny for clues, items and random texts, it came to my face like a brick. Question is : why hide it there, why is it readable only once and most importantly, HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO FIND THIS ? Thank you for your time and attention, if you really want to check out the text by yourself, be my guest :) Cheers !

[@angeloest94]

I used to remember getting passcode full moon by referring 2 calender. The Chinese calender and the Muslim Calender. I type it in and it works like a charm, hahahahhaha

[@BayuBaron]

@D ʝả ħ LMAO yeah even back then I was like, "full moon is on 15th, easy" and got it right. This is an Asian thing?

[@thepureheartofdark]

Back in the day I just decided to try all combinations. Lo and behold, it was just 15.

[@greenhowie]

My theory is all of the branching paths are a deliberate attempt at selling strategy guides

Wow, Inferno is pretty op in this game. Bet you could take out a whole opera audience with it!

[@syn010110]

saving pierce is absolutely required to get the good ending, if you let him die then your totally-not-evil boss never gets caught being shady

[@CarcinogenSDA]

that is correct

[@reissryhas]

I was WAITING for this one! Listening to you go over the bits of the game is just great. I'll never watch the no commentary because I actually like yours.

[@captain2tan69]

when carci said "buh bye", I felt that...

[@audiquattro89]

Remember playing this with my dad. I was 10 and scared shitless. But i still have fond memories of this game. Thanks for the uploads, and great commentary. Best wishes from Norway.

[@thepureheartofdark]

I'll just edit as I watch this. 6:35 There's no bonus, one only ends up using more resources that way. 12:50 One of the hardest encounter to do on max BP runs, I also have to comment on how carci got a 100% crit rate; paralysis doubles the amount of crits taken by enemies, when combined with any level of energy shot and a high crit weapon, 100% crits are achieved so long the enemy isn't resistant or immune to them. 18:10 no flash light? It stuns them for a good while. Walking and shooting with a silenced weapon also enables Aya to take them out one by one, just attach ammo and reload from the inventory after every kill. 24:05 Machine gun turrets are the worst without a clear path to run. 28:15 I do want some of it all the time in my inventory. Buckshots are able to hit-multiple enemies, can soft/hard stun another good number over other ammo types, can one hit kill a few and is an absolute godsend against the scarabs later. It makes Scavenger that much easier with the SP12. 36:59 Could have used some MP recovery then take the cola in the cabinets on the way out. 46:20 It always tries to suck Aya in before moving forward once it's health hits the 'moving forward' point. One gets extra EXP and items if one kills it manually anyways. 50:00 Three things, Energy shot, PO8 with hydra and plasma if they get to close. Plasma can one shot the Sucklercephs. 1:01:30 Interesting shopping list. I though you would buy the AS12. 1:30:15 yeah, only their claws have a hitbox, the arm will go right through Aya without dealing damage. carci could have walked close then Combustion for a less risky strat since fatties don't have that good of an eyesight out of combat. 1:34:00 Just to note, stingers are naturally resistant to fire but the pyke has such a high DPS that it doesn't matter. Also, carci got a little lucky. stinger have a very rarely used physical attack. 2:00:05 I'll have to see if that strat works with apobiosis in Scavenger... It is one of those hard battles. 2:28:20 You know? it is really satisfying to see that, beetles have always given me problems when I fail to execute a battle properly, given their numbers, they can and will stun lock Aya. 2:35:45 That's more alike to the higher difficulty levels. I don't know if grenades can knock them back since some stuns are damage related. And I'm sure a pyro 3 + grenade doesn't deal enough damage. But, simply dodging clockwise it's the most resource friendly way of defeating them. 3:03:20 Y'know, this cutscene is show multiple times in the video. I don't thing anyone would mind you skipping the repeats. Not a big deal in the end but it crossed my mind... 3:15:45 There's actually three speakers, one is behind the fatty. Downing the fatty with 2 plasma casts are almost a must to destroy it. 3:27:45 The actual order to do this fast is: protein capsule (optional), check the test tube, talk to eve, walk (not run) towards the elevator and make sure to go through the dialog as fast as possible since the gas still fills the room while going through it. Its a bit tight but is is guaranteed. 3:49:45 Once more, a perfect example of how to do a tricky room. 3:53:15 I would have bought it earlier but it all worked without it, now to see how Carci melts Golem encounters. 4:02:25 They don't, a downed Golems are only an annoyance given the targeting system but they might as well be dead. Hehe, carci also spams inferno like I do Apobiosis with the ofuda, like candy in a candy store. I just mop the enemies with the P229 since they become a lot more vulnerable to crits when paralyzed.

[@Ronldbx6]

Yay Pt.2! Now I have something good to watch at the start of my day.

[@tehgreatvak]

So after watching the first part of your run I decided to have a go at it too (except, since I'm not particularly good nor have the patience for it without the no damage part) and I was surprised by how easy Parasite Eve 2 actually is if you know what you are doing (like where to go and how to prepare for the upcoming fights) and just abuse the OP PEs like combustion or energy shot, but I was still curious as to how you were going to defeat the last two bosses without taking damage. Didn't expect them to go down like this, that was something else. I find bounty mode to be more fun than normal mode though, at least you get more free guns to play with.

[@RubenRamirez666]

At last PE 2 walkthrough i proposed this in first PE thanks for ur awesome work carci =D

[@greenhowie]

It's good to see an optimized run of this game, definitely an underrated gem. Tried doing a melee only run but think it might be impossible - even with earth buff on the garbage boss takes way too little damage.

[@CarcinogenSDA]

some enemies are weaker to PE, others are weaker to specific ammunition. this game actually has some ex Capcom staff i think. i should look into it.

[@henriklarssen1331]

@@CarcinogenSDA I miss the times when Square had Gems in so many different Genres, like Parasite Eve, Front Mission, Bushido Blade or Ehrgeiz. All on the PS1 alone, after that they pretty much started to live off Final Fantasy.

[@CarcinogenSDA]

They were actually adventurous with their IPs. They sold off most of them though... But they still do good with Action RPGs. Maybe after this year's horror dump they'll reassess the Parasite Eve IPs. The 3rd Birthday was Holy Shit levels of bad... I dunno that they even still have rights to the franchise.

You know, it's kind of funny that despite being entirely unrelated games, PEII and The Third Birthday have a nearly identical glitch with the Javelin and Berserker that are both pretty much win buttons. As always, good show, Carci. Love the commentary; love the run. Consider this game... DELETED.

[@memphisraines5699]

3:16:20 forgot about the third derangement speaker to the right of mossback. LUL. Technically, it cannot deplete your hp, so it is not an enemy

[@frododeadens1]

You know aside from the technical aspects of this run really making me see fire as the actual best element for Normal for sure, I think Aya could make buck becoming a professional exterminator. Especially with abilities like Inferno. I could easily see the ad "You got a roach problem? I say Fuck 'em!'

[@frododeadens1]

I also wanted to ask but chose to place this separately the rank for a normal first run is at max B right? Or is it possible to obtain an A or S?

[@Maello137]

"It's not serious" Sir, you have 5 HP

[@ArchosMH]

5:09:10 As far as I know/read, Square lost the rights to the Parasite Eve Franchise, because there were difficulties (and I'm putting it mildly there) between Square and the Franchise Owner Hideaki Sena. So maybe a third game was planned, but canceled because of that. The 3rd Birthday is loosely connected to Parasite Eve 2, but couldn't be called Parasite Eve 3. And after the 3rd Birthday was the shitshow that we know... yeah well, Parasite Eve as a game franchise died, sadly.

Hey Carcinogen, do you have any interest in The 3rd Birthday? I know a lot of PE players have issues with it, but I love that game to death.

Awesome run of 1 of my favourite childhood games. I know I'm a little late to the show but I wanted to ask if you would be up for another challenge run? I think a starting pistol only run would be a serious challenge since magic can give such a major carry, taking damage would be ok since it would already be tough. Thoughts?
