I just got this this week. I'm starting it right now. So if ya'll don't see me for the next few months, you'll know why.

[Daith]

I understand completely. I was quite the hermit the last couple months outside of work. And I still haven't finished the post game. Let's Go Eevee was a nice break but I need to go smite the evil already.

[Caldwin]

So, what should I be more ashamed of, that I just got my first in-game puff puff, or the fact that until a few days ago when a video came up on my YouTube suggestions, I'd never even heard the term puff puff before?

Just because I love the art of Dragon Quest (and because I like making these 'show off your collection' type things, here's my DQ collection



I used to have DQV on DS, but had to sell it for the money. I later got it on the iPad (shown) but unfortunately, just didn't have the heart to get far. These games are long. I also used to have DQ Heroes, but I never really could get into the Warriors type games. So I don't have it any more. So this is my collection as it stands now.

I really must see what artbooks exist.

[Daith]

There is actually a artbook for the series coming on the 11th.

I'll definitely be on the lookout for it. Thanks for the heads up!

I met a certain mermaid, who seemed like a waste of time,
but ever since I met her. I want to talk in rhyme. 
The chain wasn't all that long, I didn't even have to try,
and by the end I had the feels, it made me want to cry.

Just finished that part.

Just like "A Link to the Past where getting the Master Sword brought darkness, and Ocarina of time where getting the Master Sword brought darkness...somehow I just knew getting to the world tree would only be the beginning. But...damn! This went sideways somethin' fierce!

[Daith]

Just wait. Its just the beginning.

So I got Jade back into my party. That double boss fight was a pain in the ass! But it is nice to have her back.

I am running into a bit of a problem. The past couple few boss fights have really bullied my main character. So he kept dying right before the boss would die and I didn't have a chance to Zing him.

So this means while all my other characters are around lvl 38 or 39, my main fighter is at lvl 32.

I'm thinking of sidelining him for a bit. He'd still get experience, he won't die so much and I keep my party strong.

But if I do sideline him...I'm not sure. Will he get experience slower than the others and fall even more behind, or should he still level faster since it should take less experience between levels?

So, I just earned the Puff-Puff Buff trophy. Eeyup! It's sitting there as a trophy for all on my Friends list to see. It is never going away.

I regret nothing!

[Daith]

Im wondering which one Im missing yet for that trophy

Just a little opinion I remembered (Angri-La spoilers)

Grand Master Pang's voice is so dang hot. I want her to yell at me

That video's pretty okay since it just shows how to get each puff puff and Dragon Quest is fairly tongue in cheek about these things. I haven't watched any of the other videos from that channel though. But just given the channel name and some of their thumbnails, I'd say be wary about playing any of these videos in front of your parents. Could be awkward. But here's a checklist of available puff-puffs as they appear in the video.

Hotto
Gallopolis
Gondolia
Octagonia Upper Floor
Phnom Nonh
Sniflheim
Octagonia VIP Room *after you meet up with Jade again*
Battle Ground

I just got Dragon Quest I for the iPad last night for $3 to play when I'm not at home to play XI. Wow, that music takes me back.

Course, I'm going to have to rummage to see if I can find the old strategy guide. I kinda know what I need to do, but it's been a loooooooong time.

[Glenn]

Basically go east and kill a vampire.. then in a counter clockwise circle till you form the rainbow bridge LOL

[Caldwin]

I think you're thinking about Final Fantasy.

Also, iPad version has puff-puff. Oh the amazing things you can get when you get out from underneath NOA!

Actually switch out Vampire for Dragon and he kind of has it.
