Let's Play Lufia II #16 - Orcs & Humans

[SchlossRitter]

Seriously, the translators still didn't know about the Japanese L/R merger at this point? Or maybe they just had never heard of a Golem?

[KentoKaima]

Sword Key huh?....doesn't have the same ring as Key Blade ^_^

[Bladist1]

I agree, but it doesn't just have to be "Punch" (like Foomy Breath or Foomy Fang; Lord Foomy can do any and everything as He desires). By the way, do you plan to LP Lufia's 3 & 4 as well? I'd like to hear your takenon The Legend Returns, and noone's made a good LP of Ruins of Lore yet.

[solar9019]

"Foomy PUNCH!" is awesome. feel free to use it as often as you want.

[KHSlider]

Goodness, knowing how characters turn out in the end is making me wonder who certain characters evolve, specifically Selan

[jmeyer2039]

Are they also called Wood Gorems in the NTSC version?

It's an understandable translation goof if you're not familiar enough in the realm of fantasy to know what a golem is.

[pornace]

Unless You can use the same rhythmic pronunciation for the other capsule monsters' attacks, You can stick with Foomy Punch, HCBailly.

[CuttSoldier]

clowning around. heh heh...

[Rave7557]

A BAT CREDIT CARD?!?!?!?!?!??!

RWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!­!!

[kyo1546]

5:39 so they are like dying except you're borg? Huh. Interesting concept Mr. Bailly.

[nrrork]

I was amazed at how quick Selan's INT caught up, though. (I hope that's not considered a spoiler).. I played ahead a little (I won't say how far), and she's still about three levels behind Tia, and her INT is almost as high already.

And I have a Camu Jewel equipped on Tia (I didn't farm for it, didn't even know about it, just got lucky), that's giving her an extra TWENTY INT, and Selan is still closing in. If she didn't have that jewel, Selan's would already be higher.

[MWaser]

Foomy should stay with punch. Wait, what?

[GodleyX]

You keep saying the big boss... It keeps making me think your going to get gades blade on a normal game... o;

[njdss4]

@GodleyX Same. I'm hoping HCBailly will show us how to do that.

[BygPhattyPlus]

Dear God, I wished I could have justr Foomy PAWNCHED that next puzzle away.

[schachboy92]

just used my life potion on Selan and she gained 4 HP :D

[schachboy92]

just used my life potion on Selan and she gained 4 HP :D

[Jext77]

I'm with everybody on that, Foomy Punch should stay with Foomy only, it makes no sense to any other monster and just sounds really weird and out of place.

[CastlePokemetroid]

Only use Foomy Paaaunch with Foomy.

Foomy's special that way.

Besides, it's weird having you call every attack that every other capsule monsters used "Foomy punch"

[cjambient]

Warcraft: Orcs and Humans. That game was hard before I was but the learner. Now I am the Master!

I believe you are referencing the first Warcraft in the title, and I added my own reference, this LP has been too devoid of Star Wars references.

[SilentWeaponsIII]

"Foomy Punch" sounds more like an alcoholic drink. And what's with Maxim's hair? Looks like he's wearing a pack of Red Hot Chili Peppers...

[RamblingJosh]

As much as I love Foomy Punch, I think it would be an insult to Foomy to call every attack foomy punch

[DivineMoogle]

Whos this Big one O_o pm it 

[insanemclane04]

Keep going with the Foomy Paunch, HCBailly. It's awesome.

[LordBaruch]

I like the Foomy Paunch.

[azal8521]

The Lufia II remake does not look as fun as this.....

[LlanosDR]

you always leave me wanting more HCBailly

[elderdragonIce]

Are you going to show us an evolved Foomy?

[RockBanned]

1 person got Foomy Punched

[Pallandoii]

I'm all for Foomy Punch.

[Hawelo92]

9:45

o_o I missed that, too.

[ShigyAmoto]

I wouldn't mind at all if you keep saying, "Foomy Punch!"

[Tempest329]

I remember those color block puzzles. The first two were always easy for me but, the last one always caused me trouble. I hate, hate, hate it!

[Rusaarules]

The Treasure Sword Shrine... the keeper of one of the most annoying puzzles ever as a child.

[SelmerDefender]

Foomy punch vs falcon punch... hmm...

[SirVyre]

Calling out Foomy Punch while using another Capsule Monster is like screaming out somebody else's name during love making. We now know how you truely feel HCBailly. You love Foomy Q,Q You really do! If you can't help it, then it's fine I guess. As long as BLAZE understands.

Oh and yes, he does keep Foomy PAUNCH until his Master stage. At which point it gets replaced with some multi target crappy thing. Something to do with bubbles. Course his good attack in that stage is ridiculously powerhouse

[itachi4492]

I wonder if Blaze said "you're gonna squirm!" when he did the Fang attack...

[Xoediac]

Already making exceptions for Foomy Punch? I'm sure it will stay contained within this LP. Right? ... Right? >__>

[usf8]

11:16 was this a MegaMan 2 reference?

[Waterwish545]

Clowning around...nice...

[Konradix05]

"If only there was bleh bleh bleh..." If HCB says that, there is that.

[Glakan21]

@Konradix05 yeah I like when he does that lol I'm always like yeah seems you will ba able to get that then XD

[RockBanned]

@Konradix05 OMG really?? I thought he was always just wrong and didn't know the games he was LPing. But, now thanks to you, I can see through his ruse. Thanks!

[SweetVictory117]

Long live Foomy punch!

[Julik112]

Oh god, I didn't remember nearly anything from when I played this game as a child, but when I saw those blocks, I remembered. Oh God. So much hatred went to the big puzzle... The memories of that will haunt me forever.

[Loffter]

Foomy punch is foomy only! I already think you really miss out on a lot by not using him compared using blaze. Yeah sure, Blaze can do a bit more damage as a one shot, but more often than not he runs from battle and/or dies. And tackle > anything blaze has.

[seanfulldark]

Yes,start using the clips from Pokémon saying"chars use flamethrower!"

[autobotjazz1972]

LOL way to drop a major hint HC

[sirmo99]

of course you can call iall the attacks foomy punch!! you can do whatever you want :)

[Pyro25100]

The "Big Boss"? I think I have a good idea of what you're talking about, but hey, no spoilers, right?

[ms18ins]

I like it when he says FOOMY PUNCH!!!!

[toaker]

A BAT CREDIT CARD!!

[zeke1337]

@toaker How dare you beat me to posting that.

[PTp1ranha]

Eh kind of mind, it's just not the same when it's not Foomy in your party.

[richanater99]

HC bailly, this isnt related to this series, but i was wondering if you have ever played a game called grandia? if you haven't it's one of the best RPG's and was made in 1996 for the sega saturn/psx, and you can download it off the playstation store for the ps3. if you did play it, i was wondering if you planned on doing a LP for it.

[speyeker]

Magus' Castle had a room like that. That's why it reminds you of Chrono Trigger.

[jumpman1337]

We must keep the Foomy PAUNCH! We must!

[speyeker]

The music here kind of reminds me of the Statue Park music from Goldeneye 007.

[KnightSaziel]

Good video.

[tjmax31fd]

If Foomy PAUNCH! doesn't work, you can always stick with Capsule PAUNCH!

Its not exactly the same as Foomy PAUNCH though.

[TheApprenticeSage1]

NO!! Not the bat credit card! The Nostalgia Critic isn't around, is he?

[bdude1234567890]

we all know Maxim is whipped....but is he at least getting any?

[Amybayme]

LOL! Bat credit card! Oh Batman Forever...

[bigjays622]

HCBailly, you got the Bat Rock in this episode, but I didn't see you equip it on anybody. Is there a reason for this? I know the IP technique isn't great (at least I don't care about it), but the stat boosts it gives is pretty nice for this point in the game.

[HCBailly]

@bigjays622 Yeah, I forgot. I meant to equip it on Guy. Honestly, I had a headache while recording this and probably wasn't at my best. Feeling better now and looking back on it, I'm surprised I sounded as good as I did.

[lordofnightmares]

@HCBailly you had a headache and you didn't take your performance enhancing drug of choice? Come on, its been ages since the last Excedrin HC Bailly vid (unless you had one for FF13, I bowed out of that LP. Not even you could make that one entertaining for me, sorry).

[Kraleck]

@HCBailly I know the feeling. Whenever I play with a headache, save, turn off, and resume at a later date, I wonder why I did and didn't do certain things for some time. Good luck ahead!

[Shadow9808]

Foomy Punch should remain with Foomy. That's his trademark, and to use it with every capsule monster just deminishes Foomy's specialness.

[pwnerinator]

@Shadow9808 Honestly, I think that it's been a while since hc has got a new catch phrase and I really like this one. He should keep it! :D

[MrSteveHazzard]

Poor Artea, they threw him in a dress for this adventure...

[goglespit]

@MrSteveHazzard What are you talking about Artea isn't even here yet

[MrSteveHazzard]

@goglespit Ah, I just saw the whole team and figured that was all we got, that they made Artea into Tia, nevermind me.

[goglespit]

@MrSteveHazzard Excuse me for saying but

WROOOOOOOOOOOONG

[MrSteveHazzard]

@goglespit That's too bad. Cross-dressing elves are always a cause for amusement.

[TheEsperchild]

Is it just me, or is the last puzzle HCBailly shows us in this video really easy?

[chyronhr]

You should rename all of your Capsule Monsters "Foomy". Then any of their attacks could be Foooooomy PUNCH!

[Sashgo]

I would save the" Foomy Punch" for punching or very special attacks. Something magical like "Foomy Punch" must not be used lightly.

[McGack1]

oh man that next few puzzles are the worst, and you feel really dumb once you figure them out

[pious83]

HCBailly, do you retain the capsule monsters or do you lose one when you equip another?

[HCBailly]

@pious83 Yes, you keep all your capsule monsters and can switch them around whenever you want. You can even de-evolve them, if you so choose, and you don't need to feed them again to re-evolve them.

[pious83]

@HCBailly Wow, I wonder if GameFreak were fans of this game....

[TrueSoreThumb]

9:28 HCBailly, THAT ZOMBIE IS RUNNING AWAY FROM YOU. Do you know why? Super leveled, dude! No pity for those monsters, eh? :(

[Dsilink]

if you will stop saying foomy punch then the world will be torn asunder

but if you will start saying frocobo punch instead then not only will the world survive but you will also get a cookie

[McGack1]

Foomy punch just really doesnt sound well, its just an attack nothing more, one that looks exactly like many others i might add, things like the piece of power and secret treasure are unique in their own way but foomy punch really isnt

[HCBailly]

@McGack1 Oh, it has nothing to do with the attack itself. For some reason, I just like saying Foomy PAUNCH! Oddly enough, I think he keeps the attack until his Master evolution stage.

[Armas875]

@HCBailly Long Live Foomy Punch!! I laugh everytime you say it so you go right ahead :)

[Bierflaschengeist]

I thought "Foomy PAUNCH!" comes from "Falcon PAUNCH!" :)

[TheNoobExperiment]

I think you should say Falcon Punch. :D

[Thetis101]

Stop saying foomy punch pleaaaase. -_-

[jgween1]

OMG I GOT A SHOUTOUT!!!!

[ValisHD]

@jgween1 you meanaround 7:09 part? :P

[jgween1]

@ValisHD no, i was the guy who asked the question about multi-targeting

[ValisHD]

@jgween1 oooh ok! sweetness

[ChaosJester083]

Foomy Punch needs to be a Meme

[TheBlackRaiser]

Great episode, like always.

And also a nice little reference to the upcoming episode at the end there =)

[pissedoffroofer]

haha loved the batman and robin reference!

[ryanclemons1]

"Clowning around" it's funny because i get it hahahaha i love lufia 2 one of the best snes games ever!

[lecmg]

Foomy punch will forever live on as a catch phrase. After all, we need one for this LP, like guardian acorns, or what not.

[Khnum666]

I suppose the Golem mistranslation isn't too major considering how L's and R's are pronounced the same in Japanese(IIRC). Not as bad as some other translation errors in other games. >.>

[dpbj602]

@Khnum666 Maybe they had l i t t l e e n g l i s h?

[KaminKamou]

Foomy Punch! That will never get old, I say keep saying it.

[jayzien]

Ohhh, that said horse Rock.

[arkbuble]

you should equip the fire dagger and the cold rapier on guy and maxim, the 3x ip attacks are very good.

[HCBailly]

@arkbuble You may be right for now, since the more annoying enemies in the area are Hard-elemental. Still, I generally prefer giving better weapons to Selan > Maxim > Guy, in that order of priority, since the fomer's equipment draw isn't that great.

[StressTheSky]

Wood Gorem? That word doesn't rook misperred to me.

[Ocson]

I don't know. Without Foomy, Foomy Punch just isn't the same.

[StoneskinGargoyle]

Ahh, the most annoying puzzle IN ANY GAME EVER NEXT EPISODE.

Also: one of the most annoying bosses IN THE GAME AS WELL.

GAH. 

[7thlittleleopard]

@StoneskinGargoyle I actually really liked how they did the boss. It's a different twist to classic boss fights, but still easy enough that you can figure it out. As long as you're prepared - which shouldn't be hard considering you get to observe how it works before the main fight - you can do it pretty easily.

And again I will point out a certain plant-growing puzzle and submit that as the worst in the game. Seriously. I had to get my brother to do it for me each time I played. -_-;

[Kato86]

Clowning around, hu? Geez, I wonder what you might be talking about, HCBailly...

Well, they are still pretty nice with the secret passages in this dungeon. (Okay, they are giving you hints most of the time but here they are rather obvious)

[Kevinmiami1]

Foomy PAWNCH! Now in Lemon, Strawberry, and Copyrighted from Captain Falcon FLAVORS!!!

[Implotion]

I foomy punched the like button

[ff2paladin]

Leaf Shield? From Mega Man 2? I was thinking FF2 before he said that

[goombuster]

HCBailley, You're probably the best reminder I can get that I need to upload my vids as well. Seriously, every time I check my subscriptions and I see your updates this little message pops up in my head I should upload my stuff while I'm at it. So thanks for that!

[cubeface21]

Reference to Warcraft :D?

[kendrakirai]

9:20 A BAT CREDIT CARD?!?!?!??! *fires a gun randomly*

[MrMinkStar]

This puzzle you ended on are the WORST puzzles in the game.

[7thlittleleopard]

@MrMinkStar No. No. No. You're forgetting a certain f-arrow, plant killing one and that damn hammer/cracked wall one. Granted, the third one of these is a very close third but still not the worst. ^.^;

[MrMinkStar]

@7thlittleleopard Oh I stand corrected, that plant one was easily the worst one of the game. I don't recall the cracked wall one though. I just remember spending days trying to figure this third puzzle out as a child.

[mahdinner]

Great vid as always! keep up the good work!

[7thlittleleopard]

Ooooh! I didn't know about that secret passage! >.<;

That's two new treasures I've learned about in this LP. Thanks HC! ^.~

[Rafa3l16]

@HCBailly I've been playing this game and I noticed that the enemies on the front take more damage than the ones on the back and that it's better to kill the enemies on the front first than the ones on the back. Something I noticed you are not taking advantage of in your battles.

[HCBailly]

@Rafa3l16 I try to keep that in mind, but since it's hard to notice, I tend to forget about it during the recording. It's not a big deal.

[Skaeryll]

The video looks weird this episode...

[SuperKaizoMario]

Hey HC, if it doesn't cost extra mp to multi-target, then why not when you use spark for example on three wood gorems, why not target the nuborg even though it's not weak to fire, just to get some extra damage?

[7thlittleleopard]

@SuperKaizoMario It does divide the damage done to the enemies, quite significantly. So... It could mean a chance of killing three enemies vs only damaging four.

[HighPriestFuneral]

@SuperKaizoMario Because the damage is still split depending on how many monsters you target.

[kokirielf]

Treasure Sword Shrine - that's more of a tongue twister than just 'Treasure Sword'

[Sephiko]

Clowning around? Heeeeeeeeeey kids!

[WhyEatMUFFIN]

Heh, "Gorem" :P

[psxfreak101]

The first instance of a monster "Checking Situation" in this LP. Hooray! T'is one of the more amusing tidbits of this game when monsters practically give you a free turn like that.

[mrpoppapill]

Lufia FTW BEOTCH ;)

[MonsterDany]

Was the title a reference to the mobile game "Orcs & Elves"? Probably not XD

[Krakarn]

@MonsterDany or Warcraft: Orcs and Humans

[Skaeryll]

@HCBailly I totally bought Lufia 1 & 2 and Final Fantasy Mystic Quest because of you.

[libranim]

:D

[Krakarn]

Good job.
