Critical hits are also bugged. Every weapon has a specific crit rate assigned to it, but the game doesn't use it, instead crit rates are based on the weapon's location in ROM.

Some swords are supposed to deal greater damage to specific types of monster (like the Dragon Sword, Were Sword, etc.) but they don't.

HEL2 has the same effect as HEL3 when used in battle, but not when used on the field.

Houses are supposed to restore your party's HP and magic points and then save the game (essentially acting as a portable inn), but instead it saves the game and then restores your party's HP and magic points. Meaning if you reload your save, your party won't be healed. Oof, big blunder Square.

>how many extra levels will you need to make up for having 75% less of an HP pool?
well the first member of your party already takes 50% of single-target attacks anyway, so in practice your solo character will have a 50% survivability rate, rather than 25%.

Solo Redmage probably means running from most fights. And using magic to kill large groups of weaker enemies. Damn, now I wanna try this.

>A solo run just sounds grindy and frustrating
>grindy

In a solo run your EXP isn't being shared among four party members, so you level up four times as quickly. Also, doesn't a Ribbon protect you against instant death shenanigans?

I think what you meant to say was, he raped her and faced consequences for it?

What does /vr/ think of Drug Wars?

Has anyone on this board ever managed to get a perfect 100 score?

idr, it's been a while since I played through FF1. I think the Mage Staff and Heal Staff are both found in the Castle of Ordeals though. Which means they're accessible as soon as you have the canoe.

Oh whoops! Sorry, I meant Red Wizard.

>My white mage has turns with nothing to do but a physical attack pretty often
White Mage is a good candidate for Item Magic. Have her carry a mage staff so she can cast FIR2, and Thor Hammer so she can cast LIT2. Heal Staff/Heal Helmet will also allow her to cast HEAL without having to use a spell slot. Bane Sword can cast BANE!

This game was so pretty.

There's nothing technologically impressive about this image in particular, it's just really good pixel art. Perfect example of how a video game can be aesthetically pleasing without being "cutting edge".

My favorite party is Fighter/Redmage/Blackbelt/Whitemage

Blackbelts are late bloomers. They kind of suck until around level 8 or so, when their bare fists begin to do more damage than the nunchuks you'll probably have equipped them with. Then they gradually get stronger and start hitting more times per turn. By the endgame, your Master (upgraded Blackbelt) will be hitting 5 or 6 times per turn and doing over 200 damage with each hit. Have your White Wizard cast FAST on him and watch him shred through bosses like butter. Dora dora dora dora!

In 2018 Bandai released a 20 year anniversary edition of the original Tamagotchi, that's identical to the original Tama as far as I can tell.

I loved my Tamagotchi. :( I loved all my vpets, I miss them....

desu I think it would have been cool if we had zombiemen with every weapon. It would suck if they were overused, but it would make for some nice "oh shit" moments if you opened up a monster closet and a bunch of zombiemen with chainsaws just started sprinting at you.

No, because I'm not having kids.
