LIVESTREAM UPDATE:

I’m going to be in New Jersey for work on Saturday, and will either be waking up really early that morning or will head over there Friday night, so I won’t be able to do a stream this week.  Sorry about that!  We’ll reconvene next week!

See you then!

END LIVESTREAM UPDATE!

After doing a Tales of Symphonia run on Twitch for the second time in as many weeks, I think I might be getting addicted to running it again like I was back in college.  I’ve been looking into how to add timers with splits and everything to the video feed, and have decided that I want to start timing myself on NG+ runs.

As of the most recent stream, I clocked in around 11 1/2 hours, but I plan on getting that wayyyyyy down.  I spent some free time grinding GRADE over the weekend so I can max out the GRADE shop.

This meant that a large amount of bunnies in the greater Iselia area had to die.

Also a comically huge and environmentally unsustainable amount of wolves and hawks died.

I also ground the gald dragon for short while to get around 1 million gald, then bought 30 apple, orange, pineapple, miracle, melange, and whatever else I’m forgetting gels.  Then 30 holy bottles.  Then made sure I had curry ingredients ready, then bought a Flanoir potion for the gnome in the Toize Valley Mine…

…actually, I figure I can carry over a Palma potion for the impostors and save myself a few seconds…

…but I wonder if having that right away for the start of the Palmacosta sequence would break the game seeing as how that might screw up the scene you see the first time you go to Marble’s shop…

…I’ve been thinking about this a lot.

So yeah, I’m hoping to take at least two hours off my time right off the bat, and from there will try to start properly pathing the dungeons.

Or I’ll get bored of it by next week… who knows?
