Why was the game footage reversed for part of the recap?
Dang I didn't even know Mack could nope out in the middle of the fight like that. I guess when I was a kid I just kept spamming thunderbolt to get rid of his minions and never saw it.
They're going to have a fun time when they fight Croco and Punchanello in the mines. That was always the point in the game where I struggled the most, but I also never built Geno properly because I always went with the classic Mario, Peach, Bowser team combo.
I feel like I should have expected Danny to not only not fight and get a lot of easy XP from those Shysters and not use the nearly cheap as free Inn to heal himself after fighting them, I should have also expected him to NOT stock up on items when he had almost none.
At least, for his sake, this is still a very easy RPG. I just wonder how much trouble he'll have with that Cake.
Dan's already going back and grinding in order to beat a boss after one loss, and this is only episode 3. Clearly he's picked up good habits after playing TTYD, and that's very promising for us.
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but some backseating is necessary if theyโre going to continue the bad habits that got people dragging Dan over the coals in Paper Mario.
I donโt care if they miss hidden chests. I donโt care if they skip side quests. I donโt care if they build the characters โwrongโ or do combat unoptimally.
But when they start failing to make progress because they skip too many encounters (so they wind up underleveled). When they start getting one-shot or take forever to kill something because they donโt equip new weapons and armor. When they lose a battle because Dan has some bizarre aversion to actually healing himself when heโs one hit away from deathโฆ and then turn around and accuse the game of wronging themโฆ
Sometimes gentle prodding is necessary to not only help us as the Lovelies continue to enjoy watching them play, but also for them to enjoy the game more because they arenโt actively sabotaging themselves. Itโs just frustrating for us to watch them get frustrated at the game for something they caused with their own bewildering choices.
I'm absolutely blown away that Arin said "Alex Mack" during the boss fight, because that's literally ALWAYS what came to mind as a kid for me when I played this fight. That's a weird coincidence
Dan, please, for the love of Jeebers, use the Flower Tabs.
Pokemon: exists
Dan: Was my exp saved after death?
Arin: Games just don't do that
