Arbor's Eve

[Steel Beast 6Beets]

thanks! the idea came from the danger room in xmen . i even used the excalibur lighthouse midi for the swamp, it's my favorite level from the xmen sega game.

I see. Curious, the theme for the swamp that I heard sounds nothing like a midi. The music I recall reminded a lot of the Basatrisk desert theme.

Right. they have to fully transform. i designed their whole battle scenario to try and communicate the urgency of what's going on in their area. whoever is in charge there REALLY doesn't want you alive. they're fighting you with everything they have.

So I was on the money then I decided to wait until they transform before attacking them.

plus if you talk to him after he gives you his Magic Boltcutters, you find out why he's really down there.

I missed that little detail. Another thing to look after in my next playthrough.

HA! CURVEBALL! were you still trained to lose from the Ahti fight? you find out more about clymidius the second time you encounter him. i don't think it's in that old demo. He is essentially a Maclura Pomifera (monkeybrain) who appears in various stages of growth and decay throughout the game.

Well yeah, after I saw him tanking conflagrate after conflagrate, I though I was supposed to lose the battle. Then I got to the game over screen.

he gets replaced by a different character later after he does some stuff. if you take the branch in Benzol, and accomplish the sidequest, instead of just completing it.

Whoa, it truly seems that I skipped a lot of things in Benzol.

there's a guy in the item shop near a well who vaguely references it. you also can't go to the basement of the Learnatorium. wonder what's down there...

Speaking of the Learnatorium, I gave the old man in charge a spare spell book and got a box in return. Time will tell if this is a mayor development.

And now, more impressions.

- I got back to Villageburg. The place hasn't changed a bit since my departure.
- That Jason guy seems to be of the "all talk and no bite" kind.
- They're still investigating the robbery at the mansion, talking about slow progress.
- To the farmlands.
- Glad to see that zombies can get normal, everyday jobs without any discrimination.
- I stumbled across the owner of the hunting club and the first hunt, the flora clam.
- I cannot seem to find the flora clam. The owner of the club says it went near mt athos. I went there and found nothing.
- Also, I tried to return to Marshton but I got teleported back to the Benzol Jungle.
- I finally went to Delavan and... What the hell?! Both Strayer and Jayce are back to the levels they joined me. And they loss all their new equipment as well.

I think something went wrong when this new chapter started. What could have happened?
