Let's Play Dragon Warrior #04 - You'll Be Well Done

[jackmarkas]

HC Bailly NCS was right u are an awesome LP'er and i just recently subscribed and hope you keep up the good work

[hockeybuck23]

i'm in upover in dragon quest 9 and I have to say i really see a lot of monster from that game in this one.

[Blackdrake1]

@hockeybuck23 You mean the other way around?

[eggiex1]

1 viewer got Death instead of the Death Necklace. Speaking of which, wouldn't it be cool if you could take the Death Necklace to the princess as Jewelry? You know, like when a guy gets his girl a necklace... then the princess gets cursed and the king has you executed! That would be a neat multiple endings kind of... ending...

"Rheumatism or rheumatic disorder is a non-specific term for medical problems affecting the joints and connective tissue."

Got to love Google :3

[zughiaq]

If you were playing the Japanese version (or at least the GBC version) you could buy yourself a puff-puff massage.

[JaysonGamerMusic]

do yo like the Dragon Quest or the Final Fantasy series better

me i like the Dragon Quest series better

[leon102]

@JaysonGamerMusic : D

[aaronfrancis90]

@HCBailly Do you happen to play Final Fantasy Dissidia? Cause the title of this video is one of the quote Kefka says when he uses a fire attack in that game. I might be wrong about the reference though.

[ComradeSephiroth]

Oh another thing. The first time I entered Rocky Mountain Cave, I could've sworn that I encountered Magidrakees on the first floor. But from that day on I never noticed them appearing in caves so it was probably just a confused memory, since they appear with similar monsters outside caves.

[ComradeSephiroth]

Interesting how Skeletons can appear in several domains that span a VERY large range of absolute difficulty. Sometimes they appear with Ghosts and Magicians and sometimes they're found alongside Warlocks and even Wolves (hope this isn't a spoiler!)

Other than that, during this part of the game the monsters just gradually increase in difficulty from one to the next. From Scorpions to Druins to Drolls on the non-magic side and from Magidrakees to Poltergeists to Warlocks on the magic side.

[CelesChere694]

Even in medieval times they had Red Bull!

[Doggejern]

*puts on wrestling mask*

Alright Kefka! Start running...NOOOOW!!!!

[EtherSword]

That was epic when you trying to escape the cave.

[weeklywalkthrough]

if my memory serves me right is max level 30 ?

[MusicMan0985]

HC, did this game ever get into your head with the music? I remember going to sleep as a kid thinking about the battle music and what not... Soooooo repetitive!

[NintendoCapriSun]

Hauksness is the coolest town name ever.

[Hcrlnd]

lol gaaAAAME!!

[OnyonKnight]

I swear I'll never play this.

[gregdrako]

i remember being ambushed by warlock. Sleep-Hurt-Hurt-Hurt.....

I hate those bastards, but there is monster called MagiWyvern or something that also have Sleep. A few times he put me to sleep for 5-7 turns and almost never missed with this spell. I don't know if that monster was designed that way or was very unlucky SO MANY TIMES.

How to make the best sandwich ever:

Step 1 - Make a sandwich

Step 2 - Eat the sandwich while watching Let's Play Dragon Warrior by HCBailly

[CBPBroker]

@DukeDonkey Step 3 - After you have consumed your sandwich and finished watching Let's Play Dragon Warrior by HCBailly, masturbate to the thought of you experiencing the first 2 steps.

[Doggejern]

@DukeDonkey

Now I'm inspired, brb getting sandwich!

[SetsunoKai]

@DukeDonkey I made a cheese sandwich...mmm!

[RockBanned]

@DukeDonkey Step 3 - while getting "attention" from your gf

[Laurelindo]

@DukeDonkey How to brighten up your day:

Watch HC Bailly videos, out on Youtube now!

[JonoRei]

what if your computer hates you and almost never loads the videos?

[Laurelindo]

@JonoRei Ah, you mean when it takes like 5 seconds to load one second of the video?

I've been there myself many times, it's so smurfing annoying.

[Somedutch7130]

Hey HCBailly, have you ever played the classic Dragon Warrior Monster games for the gameboy color? That's what introduced me to the series, and I still love the monster games to this day, though not so much the new one.

[NeoTifasRevenge]

10:26 They sell Wings, but no Red Bull?

[MegaMrPieman]

@NeoTifasRevenge I was thinking the exact same thing.

[MikeyLenetia]

Warlocks are... FRIGHTENING the first time you fight them. It's good it didn't get to kill you. I wasn't so lucky, if I remember correctly. x.x;

[Rachman1337]

The sleep spell and high rate of success with the run command made the mountain cave a lot easier than it should have been.

[DarknessWolf19]

What is it with older rpgs that have bugged items or stats it seems like most of them have something that's bugged.

[Ixthraxus]

@DarknessWolf19 Most of them were made with relatively tiny crews, which meant less play testing and debugging. I forget the general number involved, but it was nowhere near the enormous undertakings they are today. Find a given indie team and it's probably about like that. A dozen people, maybe?

[mojavis]

I didn't look through all the comments, but did anyone talk about your title for the video? Of course FF6 is my favorite FF. "Run! Run! Or you'll be well done!"

[japplegren]

Such a change to see so many random battles...I like it!

[TrueSoreThumb]

Since you showed so many random battles, I think my guess of 20 episodes is 'ambitious' now, though.. ah well :O

[JohnRayJr]

@TrueSoreThumb

I still think this is going to be his shortest LP series. It's been a while since I've played, but I still feel like he's 1/4 of the way into the game at least. Off-screening the actual level-grinding should keep it under 20. Let's see what happens!

[Wanderingsage7]

so this is why kefka goes insane.

[SchlossRitter]

"... when things don't exactly go according to plan" - I thought for sure that meant your character was going to die.

The easiest reference to Poltergeist : "They'rrrre Heeeeerrrre"

[scorptatious]

This is the first game I saw you play where you run away from the battles instead of editing yourself winning them out.

[Kenshin1913]

I found the desert south of Kol to be a pretty good area to gain gold and exp.

[ChronaMewX]

He won't hurt me

*casts Hurt*

xD

[MaxKnight1010101]

Fighter's Ring effect isn't a bug, really. The only intention that we know of is to change that one piece of dialogue. But you knew that, I just wanted say it wasn't a bug.

[SilentWeaponsIII]

Only HCBailly can make an old classic like Dragon Warrior interesting to watch. Unfortunately this is the only DW game I've ever played. I remember DW2 being released; but it was too expensive at the time, so I got 'Little Ninja Brothers' instead.

[jscheive]

That's the trouble about old video games...as well as some new ones...when you are trying to get out of an area because you are nearly dead, the encounter rate increases dramatically...and the enemies you encounter the most are the hard ones...

[marth231]

Haha love you're character's name!

[3q89396]

lol i beat this with i file named kefka in 1 day

[CardboardWarlord]

I have found both the necklace and the belt. Don't use them but it is kinda funny what they say happens to you. To get the items off you have to talk to the old man in the first town.

[farrar101]

this game looks beyound shit and i do love retro games but this does look shit

[HighPriestFuneral]

@farrar101

Wow. Way to show respect for the Roots of RPG there...

[TheKirbyHammer]

I bet you are going to buy the copper sword you wanted so much erlier

[Jext77]

@TheKirbyHammer He's already bought the Copper Sword, was mentioned last episode.

[sdestjean]

When I went on the home page my mouse clicked on image violation what the hell does that mean anyway/

[toaker]

And i thought FF2s encounter rate was bad

[WLakeKid]

are you going to spend all of your money on some Triple Triad?

[pin2win09]

is the title a refrence to kefkas run run or you'll be well done line? due to all the fleeing at the start of the video its put that idea in my head

[marcusotero]

Wings are so refreshing.

[outtaker]

what emulator do you recommend to play this game? I used to play roms and such, but I've forgotten since it's been a while

[SirPercivalGallant]

Yeah, I've also never once found the death necklace, though I've heard about it, too.

[majormuffin]

If my memory serves me well, isn't the village of Kol where the infamous censored scene is at?

[blackswan707]

What an encounter rate, damn..so many (pleasant?) memories of desperate escapes from early game caves in Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy..the Rocky Mountain cave isn't nearly as bad as, say, the Ice Cave or a later dungeon in this game, but as HC says, you really don't want to get killed as you have no way of saving gold elsewhere to avoid losing half of everything you have as you can in later DW games.

In FF and this game..Exit spell || DW equivalent = Oh thank you God.

[speyeker]

How do you save the game?

[HCBailly]

@speyeker You can only save by talking to King Lorik at Tantegel.

[JDJeffery]

@HCBailly That totally sucks!

[xenu4life]

@speyeker Talk to the king. I'm pretty sure he said that in the first video.

[speyeker]

This game just looks so awesome.

[MasterDest]

Make 1643 singles and go to the local strip club

[Thanatos420]

HC: "He wont hurt me!" *Magician chants the spell of Hurt* I don't know whether to blame Karma or Irony.

[GDGaming]

Random items in chests... Et tu, Dragon Warrior?

[Polydunami]

Mmm... Wings...

[TKWizard]

The chance of getting the Death Necklace from that chest in the beginning is like 1/1000.

When my brother let me do a run through of this cave myself way back in the days, I got it on the first try!

[HighPriestFuneral]

@TKWizard

Hmm, is the Death Necklace called the Cursed Belt in this version? Or does the Cursed Belt show up elsewhere? It's been a couple months since I played through DW 1.

[bigjew899]

@HighPriestFuneral

you get the death necklace in the place covered in this episode, and the Cursed Belt shows up in a later area.

[TKWizard]

@HighPriestFuneral No, the two are completely different items.

[ZidaneTribal93]

Olds English is similar to German.

[Quadunit404]

@ZidaneTribal93 Old English is actually closer to Norwegian than German. The form of English used in Dragon Quest/Warrior is Early Modern English, which was used during Shakespeare's time. I suppose it was based off of German grammar-wise because both languages are part of the same language group (Germanic), but I'm not entirely sure.

[CaptMouche]

i just love this game

[giro174]

When I watched the part where you were running, I just couldn't help myself and thought back to the Ice Cave blooper reel where you almost got a game over and said "JESUS CHRIST, RUN!"

By the way, I'm going back and watching that for fun. :D

[Valis77]

no free inn?

[HCBailly]

@Valis77 Perhaps I oversimplified my explanation. Even though this area gives more experience with the Skeletons around, it's a less efficient area to level-grind, partially due to the lack of the free healing guy at Tantegel.  The travel time and downtime is also greater, further reducing its efficiency.

[bigjew899]

@HCBailly

Actually I've found the Rocky Cave to be a quite efficient place to level, or at least to get to 9 or 10. The Herb you find in level one respawns, so what I usually do is get six of those then go through both floors about five times. Even found the Death Necklace once!

[TheHomelessNinja]

@HCBailly lol....was that a joke about that tv show help me howard? i thought it was funny...even if it wasnt meant to be a joke...:p

[maxyliano]

@Valis77 Aren't you tired of DW? :P I mean, after that marathon! lol

[Valis77]

@maxyliano not really i still love the game. BTW i need to finish up the DS Playthrough if that game.

[Chronolisphinx]

Wow HC, you're on a roll man. LP-ing Final Fantasy 8 as well as DQ4, not that I don't appreciate it just don't overdo yourself. I can imagine this things can soak up a lot of time.

[gmrpg2]

@Chronolisphinx its dragon warrior 1 not 4 btw

[Chronolisphinx]

@gmrpg2 Yeah that's what I was trying to say Dragon Warrior 1 but for some reason I typed 4 afterwards, kinda silly I know.

[gmrpg2]

@Chronolisphinx haha all good.

[holierthanu1]

When you were running from fights, my only thought was 'Jesus Christ, Run!'

[Yamamanama]

"Save me from the Dragon Warrior" actually makes sense in this video.

[Valis77]

@TheLolzerdude stop saying that

[sabombardonist]

I'm currently playing the GBC version, and I'm in Garin's Tomb @ level 10-11. That is VERY underleveled, and the game's telling me so. Time to go grind on enemies than can't put me to sleep.

[kosmosvalkyrie]

rheumatism = term for medical problems affecting the joints and connective tissue.

[robdamanii]

Rheumatism is an old term for Rheumatoid Arthritis, which is an autoimmune arthritic condition.

[VC11122]

rheumatism is a form of arthritis. it causes joint pain.

[sk8sheep24]

It's cliff hanger enough for me!

My guess is magic keys, but I'll just have to wait and see...

[s6laju00]

This game simulates near death experience.

[s6laju00]

I'll sum this game into three words: near death experience.
