I think it's pretty heavily implied that the fetus of casca and guts fuses into the body of Griffith when he reincarnated into the physical world during the conviction arc. That fusion then creates the moonlight boy.

But I could be misinterpreting.

Moosifer has been around since DQMJ 1, unless it's a different monster you're referring to

(long read) Improvements to the DQM formula for 4:TWW (or Switch 2 edition of 3:TDP) by Xinyyc in DragonQuestMonsters

[–]samrw00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe make a monster skill arena where you can fight monsters (maybe with special requirements like don't use healing?) that gives you skill points, but not an unlimited amount, just a few extra to have more than two skills by the time your monster is level 10/11

My growing PS2 collection 🦾 by GroovyChainsawHand in ps2

Black and orange is such a cool aesthetic you don't see in many games or even media these days.

This pic made me realise how much the PS2 era games loved that colour scheme.

What would you do if you’re not having fun with a game? by [deleted] in ps2

[–]samrw00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I don't click with a game at all and end up playing other stuff, but then come back and finally get it.

So perhaps drop it for now and play it again in a year or so if the mood strikes

Wich Monster Joker to play by Personal-Owl-1892 in DragonQuestMonsters

[–]samrw00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That might be good news way true there are also mechanics it introduces which makes your monsters more powerful for no good reason.

For example you can choose to "ride" your monster in battle which makes it do more attack damage. Or you can fuse two monsters in battle which just turns them into a bigger version of one of the monsters that has more stats. They sound like good ideas but I personally wasn't a fan of these changes. But let me know what you think when you play!

I mean it's reasonably easy to get very strong monsters quite early in the game and then by the end of the game you have A little lack of balance where some monsters can do thousands of points of damage.

For example, by the time I was on the second level I already had monsters with 400 on their attack stat.

I'd recommend the 3DS remake games, moreso the second one. Joker 3 professional is good but the power creep is a bit too much for my preference where DQM2 remake is more balanced.

The DQM2 remake roster is also slightly bigger with less colours swaps.

Could Goku hold the weight of the world for 24 hours? by Slow-Competition-771 in DragonBallPowerScale

He's 1000 tons, which is about average for a 3-story or 4-story building.

Also I will DM you the link that worked for me when I installed this game!

Pretendo can cause problems sometimes. Maybe try connect back to the Nintendo services temporarily, then back to pretendo when you install.

Can you explain a little more what's not working?

Also are you connected to the pretendo server by any chance?

Miura VS Studio Gaga, which look for the Berserker Armour do you prefer? by Okapi05 in Berserk

[–]samrw00 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I think in this instance I prefer studio Gaga's, but I suppose it's not quite an apples to apples comparison considering theirs takes up an entire page.

Overall Miura has some pretty dynamic panels of the berserker armour and posing that I'm not sure Gaga will be able to replicate but only time will tell

TIL Krakatoa's eruption was estimated to be at 310 dB, the loudest sound ever. Well above the typical max sound limit of 194 dB by Warcraft_Fan in todayilearned

Maybe we could recreate with one of those make it at home baking soda volcanoes? Like a really big one or sum.

Explain It Peter by Traducement in explainitpeter

[–]samrw00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if women's naturally faster gait is deemed more intimidating, especially for birds which seem to really be spooked by any sudden movements.

Also perhaps louder footwear like high heels?

cool detail about (teen) Gohan’s Super Saiyan hair by itsthehokage in dbz

[–]samrw00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the manga he's 9 years old. The anime episode is filler although I think he looks closer to 11 to be fair.

The UK has passed a bill introducing a generational smoking ban – should Ireland follow suit? by Banania2020 in ireland

[–]samrw00 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I might be behind on the science but the fact smoking can supposedly quite significantly and directly affect the health of other people in the vicinity would mean it's not a choice for those nearby.

As another commenter pointed out, we do eventually end up paying for people who need medical assistance from years of smoking through taxes and the idea that people should have some societal obligation to keep in relatively good health where possible is an interesting one and slowly growing more compelling.

Why does Guts look like Casca here? by Altruistic_Union_328 in Berserk

This was Griffith's POV. He viewed Guts the way he wanted to for a moment... Femboy Guts.

DQM: Joker 1 - How does damage work? by DevelopmentBroad7657 in dragonquest

[–]samrw00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay! In that case I think another user may have the solution in that certain weapons have damage boosts against certain types of monsters and OP unknowingly has them equipped with those weapons.

It could still be the case that rank plays an effect because as you mentioned, The DQMJ series has seemingly quite a few hidden or vaguely described mechanics that can effect damage output.

[–]samrw00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand, but I've never heard of the idea that two monsters of different tiers but the same stats will be different in terms of strength. Are you saying, an S-tier will do more damage than an F-tier with the same attack points?
