I personally use Denshi Jisho to help comprehend some words I don't get as well as look up kanji, while sentences I have a hard time comprehending I use DeepL to aid me, much to my chagrin.


I used to play Yume Dorobou to 7nin no Gozansu on the Mega Drive, though I've gotten to the final boss of the first SNES game before giving up some years back. I'm trying my best to interpret it as I go with my very limited Japanese skill (been studying for nearly year) but keep running into confusing sentences because I'm still missing a lot of grammar. Well, to be fair it's mostly a matter of talking to every NPC to unlock levels, which are standard platforming fare. I'm about to start 3F.Īlso replaying Doraemon: Nobita to Yousei no Kuni, a game I somehow beat as a child despite it being entirely in Japanese. I know the broad strokes from playing through it years ago, but it's been years. Candor forces me to admit that I did give myself thirteen "Key to Treasure" cards (and 99 of every other map card) at the start, which does have a significant impact on my combat capabilities (since the attack cards locked by these cards can subsequently appear in Moogle Shops once unlocked) but I'm mostly just playing through it so that I remember the plot properly. I've also started a run of Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. Also I keep getting the Gummi Ship controls backwards somehow - I keep thinking it's cockpit controls instead of STG controls and end up dodging into a rock face. I'm taking a break from the plot for a bit to hunt down treasure chests before going on to Disney Castle/Timeless River. I've finished Olympus Coliseum 1 in Kingdom Hearts II. I guess this is a sign I should at least finish my other save file through the final boss first.

So on a whim I tried starting a new save game on Final Fantasy Tactics Advance with the goal of creating a Ninja/Blue Mage Marche (I really should just go ahead and get the Blue Mage Start mod for FFTA, I use the job on Marche so much). My thinking was "It's just a storeroom why would I save? That must be for that other tunnel." Thankfully, you can retry boss fights unlike in I&II where you have to load a save. I beat the first boss and I totally didn't ignore the save pedestal right outside the boss room. Thankfully they looked much better in Origin. The character sprites look a little funny to me. It's pretty short too, it took me about 20 hours to beat the game, but I didn't do any side content (if there is any? Idk) nor did I 100% the compendiums nor attempt Corridor of Time (yet.)Īnd started Ys: Oath in Felghana (GOG version) after I beat Soul Hackers. I had a great time with the game except for a few dungeons that took quite a while, even with the encounter-negating Estoma. Which means that if you use Tetrakarn and/or lots of demons that repel physical attacks (which there's a lot of) it becomes impossible to lose against the guy. If you defeat Apsu as Naomi then Manitou uses lots of physical attacks. It's interesting how exploitable the final boss is, particularly if you're fighting the physical oriented version. That said, 4 does a pretty good job of covering the bases of 1 and 2 and sort of ties the story together by giving it a meaningful conclusion.įinished Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers yesterday. I recall the general story arc of the early Phantasy Stars being 1, 2, and 4, with 3 being kind of a side story set in the same place (It's worth noting 3 was not done with the same team as the other three).

Noah/Lutz being a side character in PS2 and PS4 as well as Myau's species showing up in PS4 and the first four games all taking place in the Algol System, because I haven't played III yet and I haven't played IV in like over a decade and also never made much progress in it because I was a Pokémon kid who was never that interested in other RPGs when I was younger. I'm not really sure of how connected they are apart from Alis/Alisa's battle with Dark Falz showing up at the intro of Phantasy Star II and Speaking of Phantasy Star, I've heard that the four games' stories are connected in some way.
