I wonder if Tunland was shortened from Tuneland. It would make sense. XD Tunland is actually one of my favourite locations in the series - it's such a different kind of town. Watching this I've noticed that the map kind of matches up with that of Breath of Fire II.
Also in Japanese mythology there is a black skinned Mountain Witch (Yamanba) that could shape shift. But there is a long line of references like this in Japan, Jynx (Pokemon), Mr. Popo (Dragon Ball) and the fashion styles of the Ganguro girls.
8:06 *Ryu catches a slab* Karn: That slab looks really old. Gobi: I bet it's worth a lot of money. We should sell it! Ghost: *appears* Return the slab...or suffer my curse. Gobi: What's your offer!?
Bain: Tell me, Dragon Boy! What'll break first; your spirit...OR your body? *Throws Ryu into a wall. Ryu: Ow! That's it!! Fus Ro DA!!! *Transforms into Thunder Dragon, but the transformation cause Bain to be tossed backwards into a wall. Bain: Ow, my body!
Maybe CT could be for Capote (long coat/cloak with a hood - could be made from a blanket). And yes, I did have to search for it. OCD, maybe? For all that it matters, it could be Curtain or Coat Tails....
Earlier on, you said Karn was the only human playable in this game. Actually, he's not. I think his clan is called the Fusion Clan or Ancient Clan. The Shamans in BOF2 are distantly related to him. As for the black skin in the JP version, it was actually a dark stone-gray. It was changed to tan, like Arihanta said, to avoid claims of racism.
Batman 498 or 499 I believe where Bane broke Batman's back where he ended up being replaced for awhile by Azrael in Batman 500. Was a crazy series of events.
Yeah, as has been said Karn was less Purple and more blackface: which in and of itself is bad enough, but when you consider that he's the party thief, it's even worse.
HC, if ya haven't found yet, all I could see is that the closest anyone can guess is that Karn is part of what is called the "Ancient Race" which is the predecessors of BoFII's Shamans
alot of the places in Breath of Fire were actually brought in Breath of Fire 2. as well as a certain character that is completely optional and easy to miss on your first play through as well.
If this were Breath of Fire II, asking the Healer to fix your back would result in Bow or Rand doing so. XD As it stands there's a few cases of this in that game, though, but you only get to choose once... some of the choices have hilarious results (Katt
In the original Japanese I think Karn was supposed to be black and something about it was considered racist, so they censored it for the American version.
But HCBailly, a Temple Guard's spirit possessed one of the trees in the Dark Forest, they didn't go through the trees. Also, not surprised that it wasn't mentioned, but there is a movie called Two Ninas.
HCBailly, the reason they changed Karn's skin colour outside of Japan was because with the dark skin and big lips, it looked too much like blackface, and they were afraid of looking racist. It's the same reason they re-colour Mr. Popo purple in Dragonball Z nowadays.
I totally thought HC was going to say "sooo you have a twin sister" or something like that when we saw the Nina look alike.I haven't played this so I don't really know who she is yet but I was expecting that.Also did Bleu just give that old guy a tentacle "message" with her tail?
Hey HC, besides needing the Dragon SD to enter the 2nd Dragon Shrine, is there another use you had in mind? It pretty much always sat in my inventory when I played!
1:40 Actually, thinking about it again, Deis's sister/mortal enemy would also look pretty hot in a corset. Though I know She prefers going Godiva style
HC, It's WINGmeat, not White Meat. The White Antler IS white, because it's from an albino Deer (you've gotten them all from chests, but you must have seen one in your test runs) however, this is just WING meat.
The old "Go exploring to find the plot" would be fun..except random encounters popping up ruins the flow of exploration. When dungeoning it's fine...but if it makes looking for more plot take an hour...
I know I’m 9 years late on this, but I enjoy going back and binging old LPs of HCBailly’s. The difference between Mrbl1 and Mrbl2 is that Mrbl2 doesn’t cause a slam while in Dragon Form. That’s it. That’s the only difference
I haven't really played much of BoF myself, so I don't know which lieutenant is first, but I hope it's not Cort. I don't think HCBailly could power through his shield when he has Juggernaut being spammed at him. (20 Internet Points if anyone gets the reference)
I was gonna say I'm right behind you. But the memory in my game went kaput... trying to remember where the Life Armor was without backtracking in your playthrough. lol
WMeat restores 150-200 HP (somewhere in that range, it's been a long time), and it is possible to do it with Bo; it's just really damn hard (read: precise timing). The different Rods catch better fish at Fishing Spots (as to whether or not the Rod 3 exists... I've never found it either). My only guess for what CT stands for is Corset.
Also, I get the feeling you're just never going to upgrade the weapons of Nina or Bleu. My OCD would never let me get away with such shortchanging of the ladies.
Oh, and the Marbl2 you used against Bain didn't do the same thing as a Marbl1. You only did 130 damage with it, and you didn't do a slam, either. The marbl1 did 260 damage.
+Matt Welsh Nope. Mrbl2's can work with Ryu's dragon forms. They just have a 25% chance of working no matter who or what uses it. HCBailly should've just kept it to sell; he would've gotten up to 6500 GP for it!
Oh I see. I always spend my money on the newest towns in my RPGs. I feel like a shopoholic and I go squander all my money on stuff you can probably find in the dungeons for free.
i want to play it normal i want rod 3 and 4 before i get rod 5 your not supposed to get the dragon sd yet and your new dragons you can if you want but im playing this time exactly how your supposed to
Sorry pal, you're not getting Rod3 if you play the game like it's meant to be played (i.e. without cheating) :P. Rod3 was dummied out. I'm not kidding.
The Bailly Curse is the sum of the idiosyncrasies of the Bailly men that drive everyone else insane. :)
If that old man wants a healer, it would be funny if Ox volunteered to help him. XD

Yeah it's always nice to be able to see where the enemy was plotting and talking etc. It's a nice touch!

NOW these ones are the real DRAGON spells, the other ones were just DRAKES.
Batman 498 or 499 I believe where Bane broke Batman's back where he ended up being replaced for awhile by Azrael in Batman 500. Was a crazy series of events.
It could be Guru Coat or Guru Corset. Bleu seems like the kind of gal who would wear a corset. ;)

Special trick! Take Bleu to the pervert in Aura. He'll pay her 20k too.
But you already knew that. Well, don't forget Nabal and the clog. Nothing like a better ACT stat.

We better return that Slab when we're done, or else we might suffer it's curse!
But HCBailly, a Temple Guard's spirit possessed one of the trees in the Dark Forest, they didn't go through the trees.
Also, not surprised that it wasn't mentioned, but there is a movie called Two Ninas.
Karn was actualy black, but he looked like the "Black Face" stereotype, so they changed him.
HCBailly, the reason they changed Karn's skin colour outside of Japan was because with the dark skin and big lips, it looked too much like blackface, and they were afraid of looking racist. It's the same reason they re-colour Mr. Popo purple in Dragonball Z nowadays.
One of them is all Baily men have bad backs.
I play the game a few times to plan out my budget perfectly.
GuruCT? Clearly Melchior is invading from the main LP.
No, Karn was an unspeakably offensive caricature of a black man in the Japanese version.
I totally thought HC was going to say "sooo you have a twin sister" or something like that when we saw the Nina look alike.I haven't played this so I don't really know who she is yet but I was expecting that.Also did Bleu just give that old guy a tentacle "message" with her tail?
Hey HC, besides needing the Dragon SD to enter the 2nd Dragon Shrine, is there another use you had in mind? It pretty much always sat in my inventory when I played!
"How can there be 2 Nina's?" Time will tell HC, Lol
I'd assume, given Bleu/Dias' body composition, that the GuruCT is a Guru Corset.
1:40 Actually, thinking about it again, Deis's sister/mortal enemy would also look pretty hot in a corset. Though I know She prefers going Godiva style
unlike a Mrbl 1 Mrbl 2 has a 25 % chance of succeeding.
HC, It's WINGmeat, not White Meat.
The White Antler IS white, because it's from an albino Deer (you've gotten them all from chests, but you must have seen one in your test runs) however, this is just WING meat.

Ah, I love the third world map theme.
KARN WAS A BLACK GUY IN JAPAN!
Mrbl2 is only good for sell (5000G) cause it does a critical hit at a rate of 25%.
I haven't really played much of BoF myself, so I don't know which lieutenant is first, but I hope it's not Cort. I don't think HCBailly could power through his shield when he has Juggernaut being spammed at him. (20 Internet Points if anyone gets the reference)
I was gonna say I'm right behind you. But the memory in my game went kaput... trying to remember where the Life Armor was without backtracking in your playthrough. lol
Karn maybe a Shaman race as for the color thing "rumor" is was due avoid being compared to blackface/big lip thing
More massages! OH YES!
Seeing a lot for CoaT. I was thinking CorseT, but... it's a vague abbreviation, so it could be Chopped Turkey for how much it matters :).
guru CT= guru coat
There's a lightning storm outside? Better watch HCBailly.
Actually, his skin was more ash-grey.
Those freakin' elves, man, they just came out of the trees, man!
Wait you can have a party setup without Ryu (not counting mandatory parts)? I thought you always had to keep him.
The reference you were looking for is 'the fire bird rises.'
GuruCT could be Coat, Corset, or Corselet. Since a corselet is like a cuirass, that's got my vote.
The first dragon forms are actually Drakes HC Bailey, and the B-Rang is called the Bi Rang. Trust me on that name for an upcoming weapon.
Japanese name is literally boomerang.
HCBailly....retuuuurn the slaab......for we have l i t t l e m o n e y.....
Could "guru" be a toga? XD Odd thought that sprung to mind.
CT maybe the abbreviation of Circlet 😊
HC the Ct if im not mistaken stands for circlet.
Bain means Bath is French.
Maybe CT stands for corset? I don't know...
that was one of my favorite episodes of courage the cowardly dog
what does hc and jb stand for?
I looked it up and yes he was black odd they changed it...
I did like fishing in the fourth game and I even caught a whale which was nice!
2:02 I cast summon bigger fish!
Karn had black skin in the japanese but it was conciderd racist so they gave him white skin
"Do you feel in charge?" Bane
"always a bigger fish..."
Phantom Menace?
WMeat restores 150-200 HP (somewhere in that range, it's been a long time), and it is possible to do it with Bo; it's just really damn hard (read: precise timing). The different Rods catch better fish at Fishing Spots (as to whether or not the Rod 3 exists... I've never found it either). My only guess for what CT stands for is Corset.
I assume that the GuruCt is the guru coat.
Also, I get the feeling you're just never going to upgrade the weapons of Nina or Bleu. My OCD would never let me get away with such shortchanging of the ladies.
I think it's his mom's way of making fun of inherited Baily genetic faults like being clumsy etc...
Beware the mysterious Mayan Temple Guards.
I don't care for tartar sauce either.
I primarily like hot sauce, bbq sauce and ketchup.
They changed Karn's sprite because he was a "blackface" character. It would have racist implications in US.
Guru Corset I would assume :)
Maybe CT is CloThes and CL is CLoak or something...
Oh, and the Marbl2 you used against Bain didn't do the same thing as a Marbl1. You only did 130 damage with it, and you didn't do a slam, either. The marbl1 did 260 damage.
Taiyoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!
as long as CT doesn't stand for Corset I'm fine with whatever the armor is
HCBailly: SEAWORLD!
CT is most likely Coat.
GuruCT.... Coat?
Marble 2 give all your party a critical hi
Yep, no auto-Slam.
CT = Coat! I think...
So, Teacher Coat?
where's part 24? it seems to be missing.
nvm, I found it, it must have been missing from the playlist or something.
It looks like it's in the playlist to me, but thanks for letting me know, just in case.
Pretty sure Marble 2's only work on normal Ryu, not dragon form IIRC...
+Matt Welsh Nope. Mrbl2's can work with Ryu's dragon forms. They just have a 25% chance of working no matter who or what uses it. HCBailly should've just kept it to sell; he would've gotten up to 6500 GP for it!
Thank you, I never bothered to clarify that since I have not played in many many years.
Am I the only one that heard final fantasy 4 music at 2:56?
Who needs fish anyway? Not JRPG characters.
Is much better to fish equipment!
Oh I see. I always spend my money on the newest towns in my RPGs. I feel like a shopoholic and I go squander all my money on stuff you can probably find in the dungeons for free.
they changed karn becuse he looked like the offensive black face stuff
Rockblocked... :D
ct could stand for coat
I'd guess circlet
What is the Baily curse your always talking about any ways? You tell us stories and etc. but never explained/ told us about this so called curse.
Mass Effect by chance? Not very well versed in it.
What's your offer...
Guru Coat
So much win in this comment
i want to play it normal i want rod 3 and 4 before i get rod 5 your not supposed to get the dragon sd yet and your new dragons you can if you want but im playing this time exactly how your supposed to
Sorry pal, you're not getting Rod3 if you play the game like it's meant to be played (i.e. without cheating) :P. Rod3 was dummied out. I'm not kidding.
