    Yeah, go on then. Might have to be 8:30 for me though. Still need to eat dinner.

    Okie doke, hope it's nice!

    I'll get started at 8pm if anyone else responds by then, otherwise I'll wait til 8:30 and get some more grinding done in RotN before that

    I've also got a Carabosse but that seems pretty useless.

    If you level her up, she'll gain the ability to heal you with faerie medicines from your inventory (you can very easily farm a ton of these from the carabosse enemies while trying to max out her shard) so you don't need to worry about health as much. Also when equipped as a familiar she does a cool thing in a certain area that nets you an achievement, but it's more fun to get it from experimenting yourself so I won't spoil what that is if you don't already know.

    Lucky you, my digital copy is affected.

    Apparently this bug only presents when you had a save file from a previous update version. If you start a new game with patch 1.02 installed it should be fine. Haven't tried it, yet. Might do it later. Kinda sucks that I have to restart because my file is corrupted. I mean 25% of the playtime was spent with grinding but I still made quite a lot of progress :( 

    Oh god, I'm really sorry!!!! I assumed I would have been affected since I bought it day one, but I may have bought it later in the day after the patch hit!! I feel really bad now... On the bright side, at least now you can rush to the point where you were and maybe grinding will be a bit easier if you go at it with a higher luck stat and backtracking...? I'm sorry though, I know how you feel, I grind as I go so losing my save would have destroyed me.

    Looks like the newest patch (1.02) fucked up chests and item spawns. If you had played the game before this patch and opened chests, some of them might be refilled again. Not a huge deal, but here's the kicker: some chests that you haven't encountered, yet, are open and empty...and some of these chests' contents you need to advance.

    I've been wondering why some chests are already open and some of the "max HP upgrades" are back again. Well, I think I'll wait for the next patch in the hopes that the issue will be fixed and then I'll start a new game.

    You had me scared there, I saw this just as my shift was ending and I was salty the entire way home, literally seething about needing to restart and just now I was told it's only physical copies that were affected (apparently). Lo and behold, my digital copy is fine. So to anyone playing on Steam, don't panic!! All we have to worry about is Alfred's Endless Chalk Mode, items stuck in walls, and my personal favourite:

    Speaking of designs, this love for Gen 1 and partly Gen 2 has to stop. Gen 1 is generally boring as many of the Pokémon are almost an exact copy of an existing animal with only a few original designs. At least they let the designs deviate a lot more in further generations - though there is no excuse for Pokémon like Aegislash and Klefki that are based on human creations - that doesn't make sense. (We also have Grimer and Muk who are based on human waste... Terrible designs.)

    You're right that Gen 1 is overrated, and that the designs aren't as cool as people make them out to be, but what is with this opinion people seem to have that Pokémon based off of human creations is a bad idea? You can't argue that it makes no sense, as 

    a) Pokémon lore states that objects can become Pokémon when imbued with some special power

    b) you can argue that in the Pokémon world, early civilisations would have been inspired by Pokémon to create these man-made objects

    c) evolution in the real sense could see Pokémon adapt slowly over time with humans, coming to resemble more and more these manmade objects over time

    I personally would rather Pokémon weren't restricted in terms of what we can base designs from. And I personally think Muk, Aegislash and Klefki are wonderful.

  6. So I played this non-stop last night, I love it so much!!! I need to play more, RIGHT NOW!!!! But I have work. So instead I'll talk about my impressions so far.

    I'll start with the negatives. Firstly, the character models look very awkward up close in dialogue sections, they still look and move very stiff too, which I thought they had fixed. But this is a minor gripe, it doesnt affect my enjoyment of the game, and you could argue it has a unique charm. Secondly, the game is still fairly buggy, at least for me. The screen at times stretches past the bounds of my monitor (And yes, I did set the correct resolution, before you ask) and sometimes sound effects from one room will keep playing indefinitely through the whole game until you restart. These are just a few examples, but all in all, the game doesn't feel as polished as it could be.

    Despite the above, it's still an extremely good game. I can forgive the issues just for the sheer amount of joy this game brings. It's very fun, and really pretty. Certain locations took my breath away, and I appreciate the effort they put into making Not Dracula's Castle look fittingly opulent. 

    Collecting shards and item drops is SO satisfying, which is good because I'm spending all my time grinding out that demon catalogue in each area before I move on to the next.

    Enemy placement makes you have to think too; they planned for the most predictable thing a player would do in each room, and placed demons in ways that catch you out if you rush in without using your evasion moves and shard powers. This isn't a game you should blunder around in thoughtlessly.

    Crafting has a lot of depth, and I enjoy the "first time stat bonus" on food, because it encourages you to collect even more stuff.

    I really love this game and I want to play it more RIGHT NOW!!!!! I'm hooked. 😫

    I read on the internet that the games are tied in with the anime, TGC and merchandise so delaying the game also impacts those. They seem to be a restricted by their own success.

    Fair enough, but then, why not give themselves enough time to finish the game? We can't keep making excuses for a company that can easily afford to make better games than they actually are. And they're still going to release it at a ludicrously high price and people will still buy it.
