That's the Dmod I'll be playing through with you all this time, so let's see what kind of trouble we can get into as we grind up some levels, pick flowers for a neighbor, and look for ducks to punch. Spoiler alert, there are no beheadable ducks. NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Commentary by Ex-Deathevn.
This playthrough was fully completed and recorded in one night, episodes will be released regularly.

Videos:
Part 1 - Dazed and Confused

Add frustrating to the dazed and confused heh nice job tho

Part 2 now available.

Part 3 added to the top post. If you haven't noticed the pattern, each episode will be going up every 2 days.

Thoughts and opinions so far? Anything you'd like me to change, like the secret-searching or my play style? Just curious.

I have played it more recently than you, and was like "why don't you walk one screen that way now?" and "oh you're going to waste so much time there". But that's ok.

I do think you shouldn't fight things which you obviously can't handle (a bonca where you do 1 damage half the time is not meant to be defeated yet).

For part 3, I don't know. For some reason I can't get it to play here.

don't have to change much except maybe STOP LETTING ME RUN DANGEROUSLY LOW ON POPCORN!

Part 4 added to the top post.

you might wanna fins some secrets before attempting to pulverize That girly

He's already recorded all of them, so he can't do anything about it anymore.

And I have the feeling part 5 is going to be really short...

"And I have the feeling part 5 is going to be really short..."

There's 7 parts, so nope

Hahaha, so you spend more than 30 minutes from the point where you are now to finishing? I have to see how you do that!

Added Part 5.

Ah, I see I had forgotten about the whole underground part. Then it makes sense that it takes a bit longer.

Added Part 6.

You know, if you'd be a bit more careful not to stand in monsters while killing them, you'd fight those dragons with full health and they would not be a problem

Added Part 7.
Friends Beyond 1 is now COMPWETE. I'll hold off a week or so more before I start recording Friends Beyond 2 for now.

That's another way to make it last really long; just wander around looking for things to blow up.

About that talisman, I wondered as well, so I checked the source. As you may have noticed, the teleporting statue had only one crystal eye. If you wouldn't have had the charm from the duck, it would not have teleported you, but instead said "This seems to be missing a charm". And then you would not have gotten the power glove. That one I did find the use for, because I happened to reach the rocks before the statue. You were right that you needed the power glove for pushing the rocks. otherwise it is not just useless; it is of negative use: it has a -3 strength bonus, so your strength with the power glove is actually lower than without it.

I'm looking forward to FB2. Are you going to do all branches? If so, you should read the document with it, which explains what you should do to get all the different endings. That would be quite a long series, though.

As with I, Kara Gu, if there are multiple endings I'll certainly be going for them.
I aim for the story more than anything. Thanks for the tip.

Bear in mind with FB2 that, while it has 8 different routes (and the material does vary between them), only two of the bosses feature endings.

I'll be going over the readme info and such this weekend to decide how I'll play through the game thoroughly. As it stands, the endings are my primary goal, the path to achieve these may not necessarily involve completing everything throughout the next playthrough.

Thanks for all the feedback and info so far, feel free to keep them coming in the meantime! I may complete another playthrough before starting on FB2, as there's something distinctly lacking on the channel at this time. You'll see soon enough, either way
