Screencap Adventure: Summon Night 2 (Part 2.2)
When I say 'a new screencap adventure early in the new year', I mean EARLY. Hope everyone had an enjoyable new year's turnover.
Anyway, let's continue on with the (very long) intro of Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 2!
Back to Part 2.1 | Forward to Part 2.3
Previous Episodes
Alright, we've gotta go perform the Bonding Pledge with Loki. I guess we should go do that.
Strangely enough, there actually ARE quite a lot of funny lines in regular NPC speech. It's not hitting Earthbound standards - what ever does? - but they are very good.
There is a waterfall falling through the village. I think it looks pretty. :B
But he didn't give me anything! D:
Alright, I suppose I should get to the monument square. I think the game is subtly hinting for me to go there.
Hahahaha. That is the wankiest fantasy name I've heard...you know, today. I always giggle at 'Colthearts', though.
"Hey! Pay attention to me!"
Time passes.
As opposed to, what, bear honey?
dot dot dot
It is? Oh thank god for that.
"NOM nom nom!"
hahahahaha
HAHAHA. AWESOME.
There's that line again.
"Okay."
"Okay."
"All right, see ya."
"See ya."
"Bye."
...*headdesk*
WOOOOOOO
Your Guardian Beast often has a lot of funny and useful things to say, so talking to him when you have no idea what to do is a good idea.
Anyway, back to the house! And another cutscene! Hooray.
Well, it's not like you're trying to shoehorn a tutorial into a game, right? Of course I know!
*snrk*
I'm not sure if this is a reference or not.
Okay, I know that's a reference. :3
Read: random encounters.
Hahaha. Burrrrrrn.
AAGH
Hahaha. Sucks to be you, Garry.
Another pan-down to the house. Did I mention we'll be seeing that a lot?
For the most part, which weapons you use is entirely up to you. I prefer using two swords and an axe, but if you're playing along with me, use whatever suits your style.
...I think I've mentioned that before. Oh well, BEARS REPEATING.
Wooo!
All right! Let's do it!
Choose the Shapestone...
Choose the ore...
We get a preview of the weapon we'll be making with this combination.
There's a little animation where Loki and Garry whack away at the thing with their hammers, ending with a SHEEEEEEEEN...and...
Tahdah!
We also get an entry into our Techniques book, which I will explain when we get to it. Essentially, a logbook of all the weapons you've made and how you made them. Very convenient.
UH-OH
hahaha
*monocle*
Sure, that'd be nice. :3
Caution: even MORE long-winded talking ahead.
Yayyyy!
IT'S ON
Hahaha. YES.
*snrk*
Alright, let's grab that cash!
'Boam' is the currency in this game, completely breaking the G-currency standard of all other RPGs.
Now let's go grab Ryouga and go to Goura's Gate!
Tune in next time for (hopefully) the last part of the Longest Intro Ever! Apologies that there weren't a whole lot of jokes here, but it isn't a very funny bit of the game. :B
NEXT TIME IS BETTER, I SWEAR
