So. It turns out the game isn't over. At least, not quite yet. We've still more to do

Let's go downstairs

Look, it's dad

As opposed to?

Would you let your child receive something from a Mr. Briney?

No. That's one thing we WON'T be doing in this post game wrap-up

Wait, our mother is actually his mother too?


Or, more likely, they decided to not give her a name. Still, it's odd. I almost never saw my parents call each other "Mom" or "Dad".

I wonder what that could be?

That's a tiny boat...

Don't be silly. All I need is love.

I wish he would have done a pirate voice.

No locks on the rooms?

Hey, look. It's a old fish!

I feel like doing some more sailing

Mmmmmmmm? What is this?

It leads to an under water passway

Damn, Braille. I don't speak braille. .... Come to think of it, NO ONE speaks braille. I only barely passed my Spanish 201 class.

"Hay muchas gallinas en la casa de mi primo"

We need a blind person to help

That'll do.

We use dig here

The Braille in this cave translates to:

"In this cave we have lived.
We owe all to the Pokemon.
But, we sealed the Pokemon away.
We feared it.
Those with courage, those with hope.
Open a door. An eternal Pokemon waits."

This one in particular apparently says "First comes Relicanth.
Last comes Wailord."

Well, that was strange

Mmmmmmmm? What is this?

Next time: We take on more pokemon

Question time:
What is the first thing you tend to do after you take on the Elite Four?

Also:

Spoiler

What should we name the Regi pokemon? I was thinking "Larry, Moe, and Curly"

 

[GodofDisaster]

If they have to be taken on a second time, I go and train my Pokemon. If I've defeated them completey, I will go and do the following things.

1.Train anyway.

2.Take on a battle challenge such as the subway or in the gen 4 games the battle frontier.

3.Catch any legendaries I may have missed out on, such as wandering legendaries (Yes that's what I call them) I'm currently hunting Latias in Heartgold, came close a few times but my Pidgeot must be really tired chasing it via fly.

I figure if Pokemon were real it would probably go like this.

Me: Pidgeot use fly.

Pidgeot: Right (in Poke language)

battle Latias, it gets away.

Me: Pidgeot use fly.

Pidgeot Right.

much much later.

Me: Pidgeot use...

Pidgeot: No fuck you I'm beat, get one of your other pokemon to chase it.

Edit: Names for the Regis, how about Huey, Dewey and Louie after the kids from Ducktales?

A Katawa shoujo reference and a 9 hours 9 persons 9 doors reference. It's like you're intentionally trying to make me happy. those two games were some of my favorites that I've played recently.

Regarding endgame, I usually grind the elite 4 for experience and then tool around.

as for names, how bout "the good, the bad, and the ugly"? (steel, ice, rock respectively)

As much as I really hate to say this, I've never played 9 hours 9 persons 9 doors, so I don't know what I did that referenced them.

And yeah. I thought Katawa Shoujo was a pretty good game. And you can't beat free.

 

[ChupathingyX]

Cool, you played Katawa Shoujo!!

As for the Regi's;

I actually like Sextus' idea of "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly."

 

[CM156_v1legacy]

I take it you did as well?

I actually did an (intentionally horrid) voice over of the first few minutes of it with a few friends. More for our own enjoyment than anyone else's

And I'm in agreement about the name. That's the best I've seen so far.

 

[ChupathingyX]

I take it you did as well?

Yes, and I thought it was fantastic. I actually put ME2, DA:O and HL2:E2 on hold while I played through it.

And I'm in agreement about the name. That's the best I've seen so far.

Are you going to capture all of the legendaries in this game?

Are you going to capture all of the legendaries in this game?

For all the ones that it's possible to catch, yes.

Also, you were playing all those games at one time? I don't usually do that myself, honestly. How are you liking them so far?

 

[ChupathingyX]

Also, you were playing all those games at one time? I don't usually do that myself, honestly. How are you liking them so far?

Neither do I as I rarely buy many games at once.

ME2 is the one I'm playing primarily and I'm enjoying that but there are some issues but overall it's fun. The squadmates are mostly good but the lack of communication between them (compared to DA:O) is a bit disappointing.

DA:O is good so far and although it took a while to get used to some mechanics (such as lockpicking) I seem to be getting the hang of it, plus the companion interactions are funny.

I've hardly played much of HL2:E2 but so far it's pretty good, though I don't think playing it first was a good idea (it was gifted to me by a friend).

I see.

As for Dragon Age 2, I'm sure you've heard by now that the reviews of it are... mixed at best.

Personally, I'm waiting to see how ME3 does as well. It could be bad for bioware if it bombs. I doubt that'll happen, but it could, no?

Yeah, I am quite interested to see whether ME3 suceeds or not, however, I doubt it will completely bomb.

 

[emeraldrafael]

usually I tend to see if any new routes open up then run through them and use any pokemon centers so i can fly to them and explore at my convenience.

As to the names... I named mine Eddie, Susan, and John (there's an easy reference for a cookie.

I figured you named Relicanth "Allice" after the eygptian princess who was kept in cryostatis in a block of Ice-9 from 999, since they're both ancient 'n stuff.

Katawa Shoujo is my favorite game of the year so far. I beat Hanako, Shizune, and Lilly's routes and I'm starting Emi's. Funnily enough, I was going for a run today, but it was cold out and my chest was real sore from weight lifting, so my heart was beating like crazy and the first thing that came to mind was how much I felt like Hisao.

As for the regi names If you want another suggestion "Ed, Edd, and Eddy" (after my favorite cartoon as a kid.)

I see.

Yeah, I am quite interested to see whether ME3 suceeds or not, however, I doubt it will completely bomb.

From what I could tell, the only reason DA2 failed was because they rushed it. I think that ME is a more popular bioware series than DA, so chances are that bioware is putting most of their effort into making ME3 good.

its a reference to the dark tower series by Stephen King. They are the three other main human characters that roland draws into his group and makes into gunslingers and a part of his ka-tet.

In the book, they called John "Jake" cause tahts the name he liked and wanted people to call him. But his real name in the series is John Chambers, so I thought I'd use John to throw people off. I could have used Bama, but i dont think it would look right if you had choosen my naming scheme.

I haven't read the dark tower yet cuz I'm not much of a fiction reader. That said, I've heard good things about it.
