Adventures in the IOS Dimension
Interesting so far, can't wait to read more. Great Liveblog too!
fourteenwings
Aw, thank you. This is my first liveblog, so that's good to hear. :)
ccoa
Sol, Aigis, Glaive and Diana huh?

Tsundere's can be very creepy indeed...

Please don't tell me the dungeon is named something like 'Lux Secret Passageway' or 'Lux Dungeon' :P
fourteenwings
I think it was something like Lux Castle Underground, actually. :P I'd have to go back and check.
ccoa
Well, this was certainly a good way to introduce the game. Nostalgia! Foreshadowing! And interesting things happening in the present time! I wish you best of luck on your journey once the other chapters are available.
EndarkCuli
More than six playable characters (I'm assuming)! Wow, this is old school FF...
fourteenwings
As I've played FFV, I hope AP isn't going to be as much of a grindy thing as it was there (It is still an iPhone game, but one that is very well made from what you've described).

You're probably not going to keep Elgo for now I'm assuming.

Sol is oddly straightforward (and possibly has a very low IQ), I like him (It's probably the fault of the translators, but it's instant Narm Charm.)
fourteenwings
AP grinding isn't too bad so far. I'm more likely to run out of gil and JP, actually.
ccoa
Ah, Biggs and Wedge, providing you with your (occasionally mistranslated) gratuitous Star Wars references since Final Fantasy 6!
Hunter1
Fusion Abilities, eh? Seems pretty cool.
fourteenwings
Well, by his unchangable name and class, Elgo's ultimate fate was inevitable. Still, at least he left in a literal blaze of glory. This chapter was certainly rife with action, and I wish you best of luck in Chapter 2.
EndarkCuli
Didn't expect him to die, just thought he'd come back later or something.
fourteenwings
Hey, it's Final Fantasy: After a certain point, it's impossible to progress without stopping and grinding every so often.

As you can guess, you've already reached that point.
Hunter1
That's true, at least of the 2D Final Fantasies. I don't recall ever having this problem past that point.
ccoa
Something tells me it's only a matter of time till the two groups meet up and start sharing their gear, spells, summons, and abilities with each other...
Hunter1
Mt. Gulg...I think that one's a reference to the original Final Fantasy. It's like they put all the names of places and important people from the first six Final Fantasy games into a blender, poured the bits and pieces into a hat, and then just randomly pulled out pieces in order to construct the basic plot of this thing.

Anyways, this blog is still doing great, and I hope to see more soon.
EndarkCuli
...Checking the page on the FF wiki says that yes, you are roughly halfway done with the game at this point.
Hunter1
Yep, Mt. Gulg is the volcano where you fight the Fire Fiend in FFI. Although there's a metric ton of Mythology Gags here, the plot is actually fairly original. Just not too deep, but that's because it's emulating the pre-VI Final Fantasies.
ccoa
Alas, poor Eve, we knew ye...for roughly three dungeons. At least Eve was surrounded by the people that cared for her deeply...all four or five of them...when her time came. She will be mourned, and her job will be mastered, if for no other reason than you keep running out of JP.

As always, you're doing an excellent job so far, and I'll be sure to tune in when the next part's uploaded.
EndarkCuli
Thanks. ^_^ This is my first liveblog, so it's good to hear it's going well.

The game is actually doing a better job keeping ahead of me JP-wise these days. I haven't run out in a while.
ccoa
Welp. That'll teach them for underestimating a handicapped ninja.
rockmanx
Yep, you should never underestimate a handicapped person in an RPG. Odds are they're way more powerful than any whole person.
ccoa
What's that Mask/[SPOILERS] guy made out of, Mythril?! With all the stuff he's been through, I'm starting to think that he's more than just an ordinary human...anyways, you're doing a great job so far. Best of luck with whatever comes next!
EndarkCuli
So, when the next installment coming?
