Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition
Ok, so, right now I'm having the party learn a few more skills from weapons via battling monsters. Then I'll be heading in to the city that was destroyed by an Earthquake 10 years ago in-game that I can't seem to remember the name of. Raven said there was a shady looking guild heading that way. I saved Pauly (the boy of the couple that the party sees being harassed by the magistrate's henchman when they first get to Nor Harbor) and Patty, the girl with a pistol who calls herself an adventurer, not a thief. She wants to find and take treasure though, so she's a thief... right? Ok, I'll continue from my last post about what I've been doing in this game. After the party confronted Magistrate Ragou while rescuing Pauly and Patty from the creep's monster dungeon, they chased him to a ship that was leaving. Ragou likes to make speeches apparently about his "hobby" of feeding the people of Nor Harbor and their kids to monsters in his dungeon. The party caught up with one of the guys that were mage impostors stealing blastia cores and he talked about a one eyes man who was missing an eye and was a brute. It's funny how fast people like that turn against their employers. He said the one eyed brute was waiting for him in Nor Harbor, so that's why the party went there. First though they had to pass through Ehmead Hill which used to have a barrier blastia in it to keep the monsters out of it, but someone riding a dragon an wielding a spear destroyed the blastia. This was the first time the dragon rider was mentioned, but Rita (whose last name is Mordio, so someone was going around stealing blastia cores in her good name unfortunately and the person that's doing those things using Rita's name to not have to use his own is apparently named Dedecchi which was learned from another of the mage impostors stealing blastia cores that the party caught in the Shaikos Ruins which is where the Aspio mages were excavating blastia and blastia cores which were apparently made by a race of people in the game called Krityans and for some reason they abandoned blastia and their cores in ruins like that a long time ago. Krityans have pointy ears, but that's the only way they look different from the humans in the game.), who loses her temper a lot in this game but keep in mind she's 15 year sold so it makes sense, got REALLY mad that the blastia was using such a strange formula because it seems like she's partial to the blastia and their cores, at one point saying "blastia won't betray me" so I can understand that, but since she made a scene at the site of the destroyed blastia and blastia core the knights noticed Yuri who still has a warrant with his name on it and wanted to talk to Yuri about something which was probably an indication that he recognized Yuri from the poorly drawn likeness of him in the wanted poster, but the knights were still busy trying to hold Rita back from the blastia and blastia core, so, Yuri knocked out the knights that were holding Rita back from the destroyed blastia and blastia core while Repede took care of the one that wanted to talk to Yuri. I'm not sure if Leblanc and his knights were there or not because I can't remember, but they probably were. Before Yuri and Repede resorted to knocking the knights out though, Karol tried to get the guards to leave Rita alone by yelling "Fire!" but the knights commented that they didn't smell smoke or see any flames, so they tried to chase after him, but fortunately, Karol is a fast kid and he ran away pretty quick when they went after him. After that is when Yuri and Repede took action. Afterwords, the party ran to take an alternate path around the destroyed site of the incident to go through Ehmead Hill which had plenty of monsters to kill along the way while I used Magic Lens on each one to get detailed information on them and what loot they drop and have to steal. When the party reached an open area they encountered a really big monster called a Gattuso which was like a Dire Wolf in terms of size, but it didn't take too long to take it down. It was a relentless attacker though. The party then continued along the path and came to a view of the ocean which I guess none of them had seen before, so they stopped to take in the view of it, then continued toward the exit of Ehmead Hill which led to Nor Harbor. There's skits you can listen to of the current members of the party talking to each other about various things btw. That's when they learned from a mage from Aspio who was a member of Flynn's party who was also in Nor Harbor (and greeted Yuri by attacking him with his sword after he helped Yuri fend off some members of Leviathan's Claw who they simply referred to as "red-eyes" until they learned of the name of the guild that the members were a part of, but he eventually stopped when Estelle came walking to the alley where Yuri was getting attacked by those red-eyes.) that he speculated there was a blastia that controlled the weather that the magistrate was using to make sure nobody could set sail without having their ship drown in violent stormy weather. The two groups came up with a plan to get inside the magistrate's mansion and it worked. They also encountered the dragon rider for the first time which got Rita riled up again because she seems to be protective of the blastia. Thankfully though, the dragon rider destroyed the Frankenstein's monster combination of blastia that enabled the magistrate to control the weather. Rita got really mad that they were using Blastia like that which isn't how they're supposed to be used I guess. Fast forward to the party running after Magistrate Ragou's ship which was departing and they all successfully managed to jump on the ship as it was taking off. They had to fight that insane Zagi again, but omg that dude's certifiably homicidal and psychotic. Thanks to Zagi's reckless attacks, the ship caught fire and sunk. Yuri rescued Prince Iodor who was in a room on the magistrate's ship which was fishy, then luckily Flynn came along in a ship to the party in the water. Shortly after that is when Magistrate Ragou claimed an impostor was doing bad deeds in his name that looked like him and it was "most unsettling" all the while with a damn creepy smirk on his smug face and he was not arrested by the knights because of his claims. I guess Flynn must've docked at Torim Harbor because that's where the party ended up. And, of course, Raven was there. The info about the shady guild heading to a certain cardinal direction I can't remember came from him, but he took off as soon as Rita chased after him wanting to beat him up. So, after I have the party learn the Skills from the weapons I've synthesized at Fortune's Market in Torim Harbor, I'll be heading to Caer Bocram which is the city that was destroyed by an earthquake 10 years ago in-game that Karol was talking about, but I'll only go in the destroyed city after learning what Skills the party has left to learn from the newly synthesized weapons in the inventory.
I didn't think it was going to be that long, but it's the progress I've made since my last post regarding the game. rofl I doubt anyone will read all of that, but I figured I'd type all of the progress up anyway. ^^;
