Last night, I got the 76th Magi , then Apollo took them all. Since I was getting beaten by the monsters in the Final Dungeon (I never died, but I did get some major bruises), I decided to just wander around the outside of town and gain some stats. Ladd and Rika (My female mutant) got lots of Speed Boosts, Rika a few Mana boos, and Ladd a couple of Strength Boosts (since his Strength is already really high, I've been focusing more on his Speed). I really don't understand how to increase defense without equipping a bunch of stuff. I once had Ladd go through an entire Gold Shield and he didn't gain a single Defense boost.

I think if the HP went over 999, Ladd would have 1500 by now.

Albert Odyssey finally arrived (the one with Legend of Oasis.) I played some of it. Wow, this game is so awesome, I bet it'll be the best Saturn game I'll ever play. WOOTNESS!

*ahem*

Seriously, as far as I can tell, the only thing this game'll have over Shining the Holy Ark is the graphics. Now, the claymation monsters in Holy Ark look great. But the claymation humans look AWFUL. Also, since I don't doubt at all what FO and Sethra and everybody else (sorry, I don't remember everybody who's commented on this game), Shining the Holy Ark is a lot less run-of-the-mill than Albert Odyssey.

Oh, and of course humor. The "Give him the money/Give him the finger" selection with that guy in the town was hilarious.


Fun Cat Fact of the Moment:

Despite writing a gruesome tale of cat mutilation called The Black Cat, Edgar Allen Poe adored cats.
