Plays Well With Others: Legend of Xanadu

[Necromancer]

I'm pretty sure that you pick up the blob friend around the canyons in the North, possibly at the very top or along the outer rim? I'm pretty sure that you just come across it and then it's following you.

There's a smaller blob/slime up along the northern coast, but he won't follow me.  If I get close, he runs away; if I give chase and run into him, he dies.

Anyways, I'm trying to catch up to you f*ckers.

Last night I made some progress getting Nickola to leave his little warehouse he locked himself into. There were a series of walking back and forth events that involved him, people in the western-most town, and the dude in the woods, who took back the event item I had.

I then went to the dungeon again and some people met me on the way out. I went inside to the area with the barrels and met people again. Then I left, had another event, and there I am now.

Still can't get in to see the boss. Still have the slime. Still need a key. Have something like 600 gold and haven't taken a single HP of damage in the last few hours.

im about where you are zeta, going to play some more today and see if i can figure this out.

[PUSH RUN BUTTON!]

I'm ok continuing. I really recommend you heed the save advice though!

Save advice heeded - if you have a Tennokoe Bank Card it'll make managing your saves much easier.

after you get Nicola out of the "jail" go back to the hut in the woods and talk to Teo (Theo?) He'll say some random garbage and you'll hear a chime. Should be able to get the slime then.

You might have to talk to one of the elders in either town with the trees, but go back to the starting village where Sister is, there should be a ship waiting at the dock, it was night for me. wait there till the morning and some guys will show up and drive the story forward a little more.

I'm making some real progress in this game knowing only the kana, I'm sure it gets a lot harder soon. Got through Area 1, before I go further I'm working on uploading a video guide (my play through) to help out others. We're going to finish this game dammit!

I got the slime without having to talk to Teo. (hermit in the woods of some kind).

Is anyone else trying to type things into google translate? I have the hiragana and katakana fonts but I just seem to get gibberish. Sorry I really need to try to make sense of whats going on or this will just frustrate me.

You could always try excite.jp's translator.

I want to remember it being slightly not as rubbish as babelfish used to be. Maybe they've improved that now tho'

Had to work a 12 today. No time for burger flipping. Will continue tomorrow.

Three hours of playing last night and all I accomplished was a mountain of dead slimes.  Man, I suck.

You're saving lives Necro, you have to think of it that way

Not much beats  SUPER TURBO slime killing IMO.

I can't believe nobody has made it to the 2nd area yet.

Hopefully this isn't a harbinger of things to come....

Don't worry, it gets much easier after the first chapter.

Yeah. What he said.

Honestly I've been crazy busy these week. Doing some volunteer work, a couple of 12 hour days. Barely enough time to eat. I'm still playing though. I'm hoping to at least see a side scrolling section by the weekend.

But that aside...yeah, its taking a while. Between the speed of my character, the total lack of enemy challenge, and the small size of the first continent, I can literally talk to everyone, both day and night versions, in 10-15 minutes. Yet it still takes HOURS to do...basically nothing because the f*ckers that made this game have you running from one side of the continent to the other dozens of times to achieve basically nothing. Its extremely artificially bloated.
