Skies of Arcadia - Part 6 - The Angel of Death
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 май 2024
- Skies of Arcadia continues, as we kick off our quest to track down the Moon Crystals, welcome Fina to the team, and hunt down the Angel of Death to challenge her to a fight. That last one may have been a mistake...
Skies of Arcadia is tragically completely unavailable to purchase on any currently existing store, and was also never released on PC. If you want to play it yourself, your options are the GameCube and Dreamcast versions, which were the only releases. Sorry.

The reason why Valua doesn't immediately go to pirat island again looking for you is, they think you couldn't possibly be stupid enough to hide in the one place the know you live.
To be fair, we're the ones who were dragging Drachma around the world, in his own ship, without asking his permission, after making him an enemy of Valua, and making him fight someone referred to as the "Angel of Death". I can't really blame him for being angry at us. It'd be nice if he talked to us about it before ditching us, but then, we didn't ask his opinion before doing whatever we wanted either, sooo...
He just wanted to fish
Can't wait to see how many times Drachma leaves the party on this episode
I'm going bet at least 3.
We need to handcuff him to Vyse so he stops doing this...
@@ManyATrueNerd but he could just remove it and leave anyway
@@ManyATrueNerd I would leave too after getting killed by the Angel of Death in a fight that not only did Vyse know was a possibility but his first thought on getting a warning that a bounty hunter was after him was to go seek her out himself
You normies will never understand the life of a Space Whaler.
Maroon me once, shame on you. Maroon me twice, shame on me.
I still remember my first time playing this part of the game as a kid being completely dumbfounded that the game was just getting started, it felt like a long journey just getting to this point kinda like from the Shire to Rivendell only to be told oh no no you're only just getting started you're going all the way to Mordor.
I mean it makes perfect sense why Aika would have tall tales for each new nations' island. Pretty standard for sailors to exaggerate stories, and kids even more so. Growing up around pirates telling tall tales of distant lands was probably a huge part of her childhood. As for why this happens every time well probably because it's quite charming, especially with the illustrations.
That woman was much more specific than any old Greek Oracle.
Oh that was so Weird having Jon say my name and say he's gonna beat me to the islands......
I mean "YOU'LL NEVER BEAT ME THE GREAT DOMINGO TO THE ISLANDS!"
(32:21) I knew Delta Shield would block your own spells, but I wasn't sure until Aika used it that the shield would "stick" to a downed companion.
Aika's excited look at 38:17 is just precious.
Soooo... if Drachma runs into the Valuans, he'll be all alone.
He's a bit over-focused on his quest. Which seems appropriate, I admit.
38:29 "Fina has never heard of Capitalism"
Hail Comrade Fina, glory to the worker's republic of Jonistan
I do love it when a video has a nice round number for its length, such as this one being 50 minutes exactly.
50:01 for me.
@@TheFerry7791 Odd. When I looked at this earlier it said 50 minutes exactly. Maybe because that was a different device.
@@the_Book_778 @TheFerry7791 On my PC the video length is exactly 50:00, but on my phone the video length is 50:01
@@TheFerry7791 Still 50:00 for me.
I loved piastols design, and her increasingly elaborate attacks lol
Fun fact: The world of Skies of Arcadia is not round (nor flat!), it's Donut shaped. Think about it.
Don't be silly, it's moon shaped
Eterni and Risan have the same 50/50 accuracy. Eternum and Rislem have 100% accuracy though. I'm almost surprised you weren't aware of Risans imperfect accuracy, but you probably didn't need to use it very often haha. You were quite underleveled for that fight but you still pulled it off, very well done.
Man we need a re-release of this on STEAM..... Come on Sega, take my money!
37:29 Jon clearly someone in the art department of this game was having lots of fun making ilustrations, and their boss saw them and said WOW this art is amaizing we are adding it into to the game.
Thank you Jon, and Claire.
Soon as I saw the title of the episode, I thought, "oh boy, the Piastol fights and Jon's pretty under-leveled. This is going to be fun."
And yeah, Risan isn't a guaranteed rez. I think it's about a 50-50 shot of working. The improved version Riselem, meanwhile, does always work. Further, since she's now in the party properly I can let this out, Fina learns magic the fastest but especially Silver magic. Vyse, Aika and Fina kind of make up a classical adventurer class triumvirate with Vyse being the Fighter, Aika the Thief and Fina the Mage.
It clearly says the chances on the tooltip, you can even check these during the fight by pressing x
The infamous Jon perception of 1
@@ard1choke He probably could use a refresher, for example incri is +25% dmg and resistance, he was a bit vague on the numbers in the past
I've never played Skies of Arcadia, but this really seems like a game that could do with a remaster. Just upgrade the models to be more 2020's (i.e. look more realistic), add voice acting, and Bob's your uncle.
"what does Drachma have to say about this?" I don't think his opinion matters anymore since, he is effectively a Blue Rouge under Vyse now.
Rogue
Given how many tempest dance were cast in a row I'm guessing enemies can just use whatever moves they want. It looks like they don't use the same spirit points system as the player characters.
Do they run out of MP or have infinite of that too?
Ha! There's a particular battle later on where the enemy uses the same super move about ten times in a row!
Enemies have infinite resources. They use a probability system of moves they select, and it shifts as their health gets lower.
Here's an Idea for a drinking game; Anytime Jon says 'yes' & 'cocking' take a shot ^-^
*dies of alcohol poisoning 10 minutes in*
Yes indeed.
you can't fool me, that big purple thing is an FF2 OG concept art Chocobo.
Also very similar to the creatures from Star Wars episode 1, google says they are called Eopie.
Absolutely loving this series!
Dont forget the Cham on Shrine Island, Jon 🙏
Loving this series so far.
I did not expect this to be so much fun to watch. From the recent lineup on this channel, this one is my favourite
I love that you're playing through this. One of my favorite games ever. I wish there were more like this!
Thank you for this magnificent playthrough John. Quite splendid
I'm honestly surprised Drachma went along with Vyse's shenanigans for as long as he did
I would however say that max power Cupil with all the Chams in the game is pretty overpowered. Of course, by that point, you can really make anyone overpowered via a late ingame shop, so..
EDIT: Risan can miss. Not sure what the percentage chance is. The spell that's an upgrade to Risan doesn't.
Can Piastol even be petrified? Iirc a lot, if not most bosses are immune from most status effects. Though the game never tells you that.
41 minutes in, the first few steps inside Maramba with the wandering dino creature... it strongly reminds me of Mos Esley in the Star Wars special edition...
Edit- And that was even before seeing the Twi-Lek child
Ah yes. It's time for the Goth girl that were so popular at this time.
At this time? its still popular
Random observation from many years on the internet:
Lots of girls bring up the Hex Girls from Scooby-Doo as the first time they realised they liked girls.
Depending on age, people will attribute their attraction to Goths to either the Hex Girls or Raven from Teen Titans.
Cartoons really had a lot more cultural impact than I thought when I was watching them...
@@LucificNight Likewise, I think a lot of furries ended up being "awakened" when they first saw Lola's entrance scene in Space Jam.
I thought Piastol was a baddy when I was a kid. The tribal women who try to kidnap the party to make them their husbands too!
For those pondering the "Eterni" spell, yes that is it's first form and yes the rest are OP.
Yes indeed... MATN loves saying "yes indeed".
Loving the game so far bro, kinda reminds me of ff7 just a little , kinda miss these lovable older games they had style an charm galore
Pretty much all of my Legends boss fights had Aika continually casting Delta Shield, and Fina mostly blocking so she could actually survive getting hit. Moons bless healing crystals, that's all I can say.
Soon Vyse the Respected will become The Venerable Vyse
Those bloody Chams. One of them was locked behind Pinta's Quest. Which sucked if you couldn't get the VMU game to work properly like me, so you were always one Cham short for Cupil's final form.
Aika's crazy stories. XD
21:28 Sonic? is that you?
Piastol
33:15 the fact she was going first every turn didn't clue you in?
Question: How much difference do the different dialogue choices in the game really make? Do they just occasionally result in different tactical situations or do they also influecen the plot?
It’s been a while since I last played so may get some thing wrong.
Biggest thing is a reputation system that relies on you picking the most blue rogue options, this can impact your name.
A few secondary crew members get made available via the choice options.
When you get to some of the major fights you can choose tactical options in how to fight or flee, these can impact battle strategies and story progression.
Lor the Repair Guy’s outfit makes me thin that DeLoco might be a Sailor’s Island native
According to the wiki, Risan has a 50% chance!?!
Flame mantle is not a bug, or at least if it is, then its across all versions of the game and all copies, all articles and wiki info i can find state its a mens armour, not female.
29:15 Good prediction or self-fulfilling prophecy?
press X to see description of items and magic in battle. also its 50/50
Best way to start the weekend woohoo \o/
Piastol kinda looks like Sonic with that triple ponytail xD Given it was originally on a Sega console, it might be a small easter egg!
Sorry Jon that fight with Piastol was on you. Having Fina even try and attack at that level was never gonna work. Would have been better off using items or even just focusing instead.
Star Control Date 0081!!
Sunny Friday afternoon (I’m sure I just jinxed it) and what better time to humbly request Jon play Star Control 2.
It is, as always, his favorite game ever. Regardless of whether or not he knows it.
TYVM and GB
Did Jon miss the invisible spirit thing at the top of the island?
The angle of death - 45°
ah, finally!
Dynamic Pear made a Fallout game in Excel. Presumably just for you. Will you play it?
Im on Drachma's side 😂 No one asked him and its his ship
34 mins in. vicious fight.
Wait is Vyse's mother just "Vyse's Mother" lol that's kinda sad
😊
Vyse... Wearing a dress as something actually in the game. Huh. There's even more evidence for Versa than expected.
Versa?
Entry 18 of requesting Jon play Okami HD
Alan always was a snitch...
Day 92 of requesting _Age of Mythology_ (a full playthrough if possible)
Only an idiot would return to pirate island to hide. That's why it's so brilliant.
I know we're still a long way off from this request being fulfilled but I'm curious if you had any other games you wanted Jon to play?
And yeah, if you knew that I knew that you knew I was going somewhere then I would know that you know you would find me there since you know I know you know, therefore the only logical place to go would be to where you think I would go first knowing you know I know it would be a stupid idea. Truly genius.
@@donovanfaust3227 _Ni No Kuni 2_
Algorithm
Entry 610 in let’s make Jon fully play the original Command and Conquer
611 of 1230 of asking for C&C 95
612 Command and conquer Jon?
613 of the great classic Command and conquer
614 / 1230 of C&C95
615 or HALFWAY to getting Command and conquer into Jon’s top 50.
This is getting hard to follow I feel like you are just saying random words
Day 108/1230 of requesting Jon play a game nobody will remember, like Majesty: A Fantasy Kingdom Sim.
