But what about inexperience? What about seeing a shiny thing and not question the big person behind the counter when she names a price because you need to have it? These kids are far too good at haggling!

Also 130% is so false... you can only go a little beyond it with the Men. Housewifes, Old Men and Little Girls all demand less than that.

I need to have this [Thankful Statue]! My wife won't let me live it down if I don't get it

>130%

Can't you go just a bit lower?

>131%

That seems fair.

:D

Words cannot convey how much hate and envy I feel right this moment.

T-that... there's so much wrong with that...

WHY COULDN'T THAT HAVE BEEN ME!? ;_;

If it makes you feel any better, I had shit luck with pretty much every other sale.

Oh that was an exagerated joke post.

Still, damn you're lucky. People wouldn't even touch my Thankful Statue.

Don't forget, they do say that some people will pay your price even if they try to haggle. But of course, it's hard to actually call their bluff.

More often than not, it's safer to drop a few percentage points to get the sale, since you'll usually still be turning a profit. I think I've only successfully called someone's bluff once.

UNLESS, it's those damnable little girls. If you want to give your mom a gift you will fucking pay for it.

It seems like the debut trailer is out.

Unlike the game.

Edit note: The trailer is actually the original Japanese trailer with the English version and translated.

Have the game preordered. The concept looks interesting, as does the graphics (I realize graphics don't make a game, but right now I really can't stand games with a poor use of colors), so...

Here, have an article about Carpe Fulgur. I don't know if anyone else will find it interesting, but I did.

got the demo awhile back and really liked it. Something about it really draws me in. CAPITALISM, HO! is too good

although it made me remember that twin tail loli who buy everything close to no profits at all...FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU

And that's just the first payment... until now I've gotten two Game Overs and I barely got the amount once.

Still it's damn fun! Sorry Recette about the box though...

It's all in Japanese, just like the demo. Considering that only two guys was involved in the localization, it's probably for the best.

Incidentally, I found this funnier than I should have, considering how much those little girls piss me off.

I guess I forgot to say this before, but I really love the Dragon Quest III reference during one of the beginning scenes.

^^ That is hilarious.

I've been playing the demo. I'm having little to no luck with the dungeon, or with getting little girls to pay any markup above 112% for anything.

^^^ Indeed, totally hilarious.

Damn, and I got to wait a few months to buy it.
