I expected so much more out of this segment. This disappointed me so damn much, I stopped playing the game for a week. The worst part of it all is that this is not the translation, this is just really bad writing. I am tempted to make a longer video to tear into this, but to summarize: The only major development here is the Emperor's assassination, which causes a rift in the Imperial side. Goldwyn withdraws, Seign defects. As for Nowa's side, literally nothing is accomplished. Euma is still as indecisive as ever, only choosing to run away from the issue instead of growing to confront it. The Alliance expands due to Melridge and the defectors joining, but other than possibly Seign, none of them have growth any from their journey other than their "stats". Perielle doesn't have a good friend moment with Euma, instead looking very parasitic in that once they are allied, she is off to the next location instead of sticking around to help him. There were no developments with Nowa, where he may have learned something about leadership from either Goldwyn or Kassius. With the exception of the announcement of the Emperor, I would call this entire segment just filler. I'm not sure how many people feel the same about this, but it makes the whole Euchrisse journey feel like something to pad the game time and the roster size. Unless I am missing something, there just isn't anything here. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ni0C2IdAqRg

I don't get all of the sidequests here as I intentionally left off Khonsu, who will most likely be in the next video when I aim to wrap up ALL sidequests available. To make up for his omission, we will instead be whacking Cleopatra, someone I should have hit earlier due to how crazy Frolic is. With Cleo on the chopping block first, make sure you are protected against Bufu, Hama, and Charm as those are the three things she will lob at you. Being able to use Dekunda can also help significantly as it will offset the Frolic debuffs. Upon defeating her, you can either stop her suicide to get her to join you, or let her go if you're not interested. I will be fusing her again later since the Prayers I've accumulated will make her ridiculous once she bridges any level gaps. After that, we whack Abaddon who doesn't really have much going for him. I just need to show up and smack him around and down he goes. Baal is in a similar spot in that he doesn't have anything as annoying as Frolic. However, things change when we reach the Garuda who was probably meant to be fought after I deal with the rival Nahobinos judging from his level alone. He loves to play with evasion and depending on the exact numbers going on under the hood, may be more evasive than anything we've encountered until now. Either Dekaja, Sukunda, or Blinding Strike is necessary to bring him back into line. As long as we can hit him, we can try to drag this into a battle of attrition, but due to the level gap, he is still going to hit extremely hard for this stage of the game, so make sure you can heal or cut into his damage somehow. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlAPqUgMt4E
