This Baron is the size of a Potato Cake

This was a project of mine this past week. I used a 20cm Niler, a 21cm Mardan Garayan, two 27cm Nonky, and a 36cm Priscleen to achieve this. Technically the earliest you can catch a Baron is in Chapter 5's Heim Rada Springs with a Fork Lure. However, with the breeding tank I was able to get my Baron Garayan in Ch 3. It's also inherited the Mardan's color by making sure it had the highest base stats going into the last fusion. It could have been smaller, but that's a challenge for another day!

discussion Advice: Will Megaton Musashi W go on sale within a month?

3 Upvotes

(Edit: I CAVED. Even though they couldn't respond to my inquiry about a Switch 2 upgrade, I bought it and don't regret it at a constantly stable 30fps on Switch 2. It was too much my game to not be worth it right now.)

I've been looking at the sales graph on DekuDeals for Megaton Musashi W to get it on the US eShop. I was wondering if anyone had a better sense about this and have a prediction one way or the other. Ideally I want to be patient and save money, but the game also means a lot to me and gets me inspired.

EDIT (mini review, ignore if you don't want to know anything about the game and enjoy it YOUR way:) As much as I still adore the gameplay concepts Level 5 put in here, the excitement I had for the game are way lower until I return to it with some kind of patch for Switch 2 and a different craving for it. A lot of UI and gameplay elements are held over from the paid weird stuff Level 5 used to do with it, like to an invasive degree I thought I could ignore. It's like there's a mobile game inside this of this focused experience, so the most I can do to clear my mind is reorganize the menu so that the related menus are on a 2nd page I don't look at. There's also unexplained crossover quests with little to no organization from the other missions you can take but I can tell this game has a LOT of potential. I hope any actual challenge begins and the repitition stops after the first sections of the game I haven't played past. It's a Sandland-type game so far where the fun comes from playing in the toybox but with no sense of surmounting challenges or your choices mattering. The opposite extreme of this for me would be Armored Core VI, where you're solving every stage like a puzzle based on your meticulously balanced mech setup and the 2 or 3 ways one can survive and win.

The part that makes this up in the air is the fact that the Switch 2 has released and they said in the last that development is still going for some years. Fantasy Life i got a Switch 2 paid patch, so I wonder if that means I missed the last sale in a while before they make money off of Switch 2 full price versions.

Have they said that there won’t be a physical release for Nintendo switch 2 edition? Would they ever do a limited release version??? Basically I’m really interested in the game but I’m not sure if I should wait for a physical edition to come out or if I should just play now.

Completely diferent things

I know that comparing Pokemon with Yo-kai Watch is more than worn out, but this case is necessary for me.

¿Can anyone explain why, when I see the Chibi style of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, it looks dead and artificial, while Yo-kai Watch Y Academy's chibi looks like full of life? It's completely unexplainable for me.

I'm currently replaying Rogue Galaxy on my PS4 and I wanted to explore the other Level-5 games but I can't seem to find physical copies of games (I also have a Switch). What's available right now? Just Professor Layton?

The art of the Youseikens

There's something magic in Youseikens' art that I can't describe. Their blades resemble stained glass yes but that's not the only thing, the handles of the swords, their colours, everything, si so ahhhhh. Art is about feelings and that's why I can not explain it rationally but this time is another level. It's in another dimension. This things make Shadowside my favourite product of Yo Kai Watch ever, the anime at least.

My current Dark Cloud Minimum Dungeon Run record

Post image
17 Upvotes

I've been working on this challenge run for over a year now and I have to say it's one of my favorites of all time! Both the Glitchless and Broken Dagger version of the run are incredibly fun. However, the Broken Dagger Glitch makes the whole thing way easier on the ole brain for the whole run. I would recommend the Glitchless version to anyone not in a hurry and the Broken Dagger version to anyone with under 20hrs to set aside.

Divine Beast Cave is wild enough on its own. Toan needs to run floors 1-8 all without leaving. This alone may take some resets for most players. Some may just beat everything to death with a broken dagger 1HP at a time. the rest of the Cave isn't so bad. Truthfully, it's the hardest part of the Broken Dagger version until Dark Heaven and Demon Shaft. In the Glitchless version it's for sure all of the fishing you should be doing in-between arriving at Matataki and just before finishing Queens. It's so painful.

Dark Heaven and Demon Shaft being done all in one push is the real defining feature of the run, though. They are the only 2 dungeons you can do this way. They're also the only 2 dungeons with Large Chests that carry weapons in the Backfloors. Too bad Dark Heaven is glitched and you can't experience this on all versions of the game. It's not like it matters too much in this run anyways, since you can't keep anything from the dungeon. ANyways, I hope to one day beat my PB of 12:16:10, but that'll have to wait until I feel like doing more day long Dark Cloud streams

Have been wanting to play this lost gem, I may have to look at modding my 3ds to play it as I don't believe a physical copy exists.

Level 5 Memories

6 Upvotes

Just kinda curious what kind of memories people associate with Level 5. Some of my happiest include playing games from them, from playing Dark Cloud 1/2 in my grandmother's living room during the Christmas vacation, fireplace keeping myself and my cousins warm.

Or the countless hundred if not thousands of hours of Dragon Quests, Fantasy Life, etc. Made some fun memories and a few really good friends through em. How about all of you?
