About the font patch, I can't seem to find it on the main website. Know where I can download it?

OK, I've made the font patch work, and the font I ended up with is much more readable but also obnoxiously large. I'm not yet sure that I prefer it to the other one.
On an unrelated note, there are no recovering devices before the fight with Valkyrie. I only just realized this might be because DJC just forgot to add them, but I really don't know.
Also, the "MP 1/2" handicap in the BA is of course pointless. :-p

About Valkyrie I think you're right. There isn't one outside or inside. About 1/2 MP handicap it's not completely pointless. some skills like Slow or Fast has a fixed MP number (although I don't think you use them in BA) Osmose may draw more mana unless it's percentage based. Skills like Energy Surge deals less damage. But all in all it's fairly pointless indeed.  |

Alright, that's the first time I've ever tried to confront Tyr before even coming back to Auctus, and it was a complete disaster. I need to know whether or not that's a reasonable thing to attempt.

I doubt that's reasonable. Atom Edge would kill you and I doubt you can kill him that fast. I went there after Meridion Caverns and I couldn't beat him before he cast Atom Edge. (I survived though)

Tyr isn't meant to be attempted until just before the Forgotten Continent at the earliest. He's best suited for challenge upon obtaining the airship.
There is a problem with the HP and MP Refreshers before Valkyrie. I think it had to do with triggers from old event sequences that were removed.
The MP 1/2 Handicap used to mean more when all skills had set MP costs. There's still a few skills that require X amount of MP, but you're right that it's no longer a dangerous handicap and probably shouldn't be worth much of an increase in Battle Points. It actually helps you against certain attacks like Energy Surge,, as you mentioned.

I gotta say, Willis still has a few irksome lines.
-After Pandemonium(White Shrine): Something stupid about riding into the sunset.
-Atlantis entrance: Something about being a trigger-happy stealth hater.
-Atlantis third floor: "So, like, look at the glowing lights!"
Also, Shinryu does not rival Beomaust's combat power in the slightest, whatever that book may say.^^

Also, Shinryu does not rival Beomaust's combat power in the slightest, whatever that book may say.^^ There is some VERY bad writing for all the characters throughout the game. I deleted quite a bit of it, but I'd have to rewrite so much to do more. I wanted to take an entirely different direction with Willis, make him older and more of a father figure who is getting too old for this adventure stuff. A darker character with a troubled past. Wasn't able to make it happen. Beomaust and Shinryu are designed differently as battles. Beomaust is about surviving his breath attack, his other skills aren't too bad. Shinryu is more varied with less emphasis on surviving a single repeating pattern blow. |

Noticed the intro poem is still mentioned in the credits even though it was removed.
Also, why is there a destroyed castle northwest of Portown? I know it's always been there but it is kind of weird.

Yea, it feels weird that it is there. Maybe remove it or say we shouldn't go there or something when we inspect it?

That is the ruins of Eridwell castle, some of the NPCs in town might mention it. Cirus the Paladin would have ruled from there. I was going to have a sidequest and create a dungeon there, but it was cut. Since you cannot walk onto the graphic I thought it was self-explanatory that it was not a location the player could visit. I add things to the credits, but don't cut them. In case I restore things that were cut. |
