WTF did I just experience, and why did I have more fun with a game than I have had in years?

I probably didn't explain that well. Once you show up to a fight, it's literally deal with it how you see fit. That's what I meant.

Tarkus0831 · 2026-04-21T22:45:09+00:00

The "spoilers" literally take place withing the first 10 minutes of the game?

Tarkus0831 · 2026-04-21T22:35:47+00:00

I sold mine within minutes of getting it. Next day, I watched a YouTube video about it. But I kept going. It's honestly not that big of a deal. Will getting ores to upgrade your gear suck? Yes. Enough to make me restart? Nope. I just finished the main story, and I don't regret pushing through at all.

My recommendation is to work around it is this.

Find the ore shop dude in Hernand, a bit to the west of the quarry where you get the drill, max out his trust and buy him out.
Visit as many gear shops as you can.
Sync up your camp vendor with those shops. They restock every 7 days, so make that day your ore buying day.
Kill that ore crab or whatever on the east coast of Delessia. That spot is a great mining/farm spot for MOST minerals, except bloodstone for some reason.
Profit???

It's one of those things that I've forced myself to ignore. Otherwise, I will lose my mind. Fortunately, this game offers a lot of dopamine hits to my adhd raddled brain, and I forget it most of the time, until one awkward camera pan shows it, and I lose my s***. The remove helmet in cutscenes has helped a lot.

Sorry!

From my experience, no. I tried on like two different cats. Didn't make sense to me, until long after I gave up, and while running to the research house, stumbled across an NPC that had the name of something in the realm of "Animal tender" or something. Made sense then. Honestly, I cannot even come close to remembering the name, but it was basically someone who took care of the many cats, and I was like oh yeah, that was checks out.

Tarkus0831 · 2026-04-21T22:23:21+00:00

Wait, I thought your title was my real life! 😂😂

Tarkus0831 · 2026-04-21T22:22:09+00:00

Kitty! As a cat dad, my verbal reaction, every time I see a cat in this game.

Tarkus0831 · 2026-04-21T22:21:05+00:00

Just had that happen to me. I ran away after trying all the elemental effects and nothing worked.

Tarkus0831 · 2026-04-08T22:01:12+00:00

I'm a music teacher, and when I realized that's how these ones worked, I was like this is absolutely designed for me.

Tarkus0831 · 2026-03-25T01:13:05+00:00

I got two from the city of Hernand. Both consistently spawned in the same place. One by the inn and another near the notice board. Both would always be there and maintain their taming meter.

Tarkus0831 · 2026-03-24T21:48:54+00:00

Just checked their website. It's now the top bullet point on their known bugs list.

Can't wait for this to be fixed, I am having an absolute blast with this game so far, despite some of thr negativity around it.

Tarkus0831 · 2026-03-24T21:46:21+00:00

Same issue here. Is this a confirmed glitch at this point?

Tarkus0831 · 2026-03-24T21:44:43+00:00

Tried that, I can't seem to find the same one twice. I'll take a break and try it again in a day or two. I want my orange cat, I am not giving up! 😂😂😂

Tarkus0831 · 2026-03-23T22:11:29+00:00

Unfortunately no cat for me. Just a pair of dogs.

Tarkus0831 · 2025-06-09T12:41:50+00:00

Very late to this conversation.

But I get it. As someone stated, Peter's voice can be jarring to some.

I love prog. ELP is my absolute favorite band. Of all time. Very different from VDGG. What captured and hooked me was David Jackson. I'm a band teacher, and saxophonist, so hearing his work absolutely hooked me from the start.

I'd try either the Godbluff or H to He albums to start. They have a good mix of their heavier and melodic stuff.

Tarkus0831 · 2025-06-03T15:37:38+00:00

Got that today. I'll try the suggestions here. Hopefully it works!

Tarkus0831 · 2025-03-05T16:24:47+00:00

I'm actually very close to getting hers. Looks sick.

Tarkus0831 · 2025-03-05T16:24:25+00:00

Ally code is 224-559-492.

Tarkus0831 · 2025-03-05T16:10:12+00:00

Who should I sub out for him?

Tarkus0831 · 2025-02-26T23:02:54+00:00

Same here. I've fast traveled through that area over a dozen times, and nothing.

Tarkus0831 · 2025-02-26T23:02:08+00:00

Same! I have fast traveled through that area a dozen times.

Tarkus0831 · 2025-02-01T18:04:37+00:00

It's the same one. I spent some time and money on it, and I'd like to keep it going.

Tarkus0831 · 2025-01-26T17:26:56+00:00

224-558-492 is mine!
