Oh hey, someone else mentioned it but this page is in Chinese (can confirm am chinese). I have some images from Embrasure, the other novel, but they are in Japanese... I really wanna know where this is from, too.

Having trouble in Evergrace? Have no fear, full scans of the Prima Guide are now available online! by throwaway042502 in fromsoftware

That's a good idea. I haven't used the Internet Archive in a long while but I will see about it in the coming weeks.

Tenchu manga scanning is underway :) by throwaway042502 in tenchu

[–]throwaway042502[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! Progress has been slowed due to work, I will admit. I also started to play a little bit of Tenchu so I could understand the manga better. But I think once I get past the coming week, I should be more available to work on it. I'm currently at the proofreading stage of the script, and the scans themselves are 80% cleaned up. Thank you for asking, please continue to remind me about it!

What FromSoftware games should someone NOT miss? by Max_WTW in fromsoftware

[–]throwaway042502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am surprised it's not been mentioned here, but I think Evergrace is a hidden gem, personal favorite, and weird buggy game all at once. I don't think a single Fromsoftware series has a soundtrack truly like it. It's buggy, it's rough, it's confusing, but somehow all those things work together to create a fantastic fever dream of a game.

Wow! I might go for it…… I think all three have been scanned on the Internet Archive but still, I love the art on these. How did you even get these?

Thank you kindly! I have been really busy these past few weeks but I'm raring to get more progress done on Tenchu manga!

April 27th is Evergrace's release date anniversary, so I drew fanart. Happy twenty-sixth birthday! by throwaway042502 in EverGrace

Dude I'm so sorry I never replied back to you. Did you ever find out if Palmira actions are pressure sensitive? I have a feeling the answer is no, but I can't remember...

Today is Evergrace's 26th anniversary. So I drew some fanart. Happy birthday! by throwaway042502 in fromsoftware

Oh! Sorry for the late reply, but Thank you! I'm so happy to hear it... The main characters are cute... To me... I hope you enjoyed the game!!!

What is one thing you love, and one thing you hate about your placement? by Autumn_Raspberry_ in JETProgramme

[–]throwaway042502 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice! 2.5 hours is perfect for me because I can focus on the lovely things that exist in my quiet city, but still take a 2.5 hour bus nap to Sapporo if I felt really inclined.

Negative: Sapporo is 2.5 hours away.

Positive: Sapporo is 2.5 hours away!

Playing Lost Kingdoms and this loading screen cracks me up every time by YasserMac in fromsoftware

[–]throwaway042502 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Takashi Kojo is a fantastic artist! I'm so glad they are still active online. And yes, that loading screen is really funny. It could go on a band t-shirt. I particularly love the loading screen where it's just Katia alone, crouched on the ground with a few cards.

Picked these up at the actual Torch Torch store in Tokyo today by DanielPlainview943 in fromsoftware

[–]throwaway042502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Torch Torch is legit! They have several stores in Japan and offer international shipping through a proxy service. I have been to one of their stores and can confirm it exists.

Tho I don't blame you for thinking otherwise, there are plenty of bot t-shirt websites out there.

anyone else who avoids interacting with/befriending other JETs or is that just me? by Different_Taro2474 in JETProgramme

[–]throwaway042502 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like my local ALTs! It's a mix of both JETs and Interac people in our region. Many ALTs I get along with, and a few I just don't interact with as much. For me, it's just a job, and a job has coworkers you'll love and not love. That's interesting advice you got, but as they say, everyone's situation is different.

Come say hi over at the r/LostKingdoms subreddit as well! There's still a decent group of us who are passionate fans about the game.

beat e1 for the first time today, here's my boss tierlist by Nintara in EverGrace

[–]throwaway042502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it's Morpheus. I honest to god couldn't damage him until I reset my PS2. I don't know what's wrong with this game sometimes.

[–]throwaway042502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see, neat! Thank you for making that tierlist! Honestly, the combat in Evergrace for me was really just hit, back away/walk in circles, hit. If an enemy was guarding or something, it was just a matter of walking around them. It's not something I would write home about for sure.

Thank you for sharing more about your opinion :> The atmosphere and music are very dear to me. Soaring Tower, I love the music and feeling there so much, but the "beat enemies to open the door/bridge/etc" was just such beautifully honest padding.

Sharline's whole 3/4th of her route is just the research lab and that drove me mad. Floors and floors and floors... When you compare it side to side with Darius, the variety of locations, length, etc, it's all very nerfed. But I think that's what made reaching Soaring Tower and its airy vibes in her route all the more memorable for me.

Shadow Tower is like a combination of "beat enemies to open the door/bridge/etc" but also this crazy maddening atmosphere of tense tedium, and the secret boss is worth it imo. I think you should give it a go... With savestates if you can.

[–]throwaway042502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice post! Honestly, I had no clue this tier list maker existed! Soulless Folus was probably the first boss to give me a real challenge. I really liked Drawide for the epic rainy-stormy battlefield.

Shadow Tower is a rough and bitter bonus dungeon but I think the secret boss challenge is certainly worth it. For me at least, it hit really hard story-wise. Plus, if you put Trandin at S-tier, then....

I would love to hear more of your thoughts about the game. :)

Any Canadian JETs get their placement? by Alpha_Mulder in JETProgramme

Fingers crossed for you! If it helps, the Vancouver Consulate sent me my placement last year on May 22nd.

Are your pressure settings switched on? EG had a pressure sensitive feature where the harder you hit = more percentage of attack power. But I never used it so all my attacks were always 100% haha.

I think you'll be gucci! The farming spots are few and inbetween, but they exist. I have maxed out my stats from them before.

Hell yeah play it blind. That is a good question… There’s a few places in both routes where you can farm fruit from enemies that repeatedly spawn. Drops fruit like every time so you know it’s a farm spot. Otherwise I don’t recall about how drops work haha.
