A Bird Story - Revier's Cut

By

Out of curiosity, I'm posting this video here, a bit ahead of time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9XpTHABzXk

It's a "director's cut" of A Bird Story, Kan's only commercial short story. I cut out all extraneous scenes and filler, and stitched together the remnants in a coherent whole, or attempted to, anyway. I believe this is a good litmus test to determine if Kan's stories are of your taste; it's only about 37 minutes long, features his general story structure, and many of his storytelling tricks through a rather simple tale.

For reference, a halfway "optimized" run through the base game takes about an hour, and most "normal" runs clock an hour and a half.

Apologies for the long delay, I hope you didn't mind it. Hopefully I'll be able to put more time into this place soon.

About Me

By
  I am Dev Jyoti Chand, a man of many interests. Chiefly, I like playing video games, specifically,  strategy games, old RPGs, and stories of great political intrigue. Some of my favorite games, to give a good overview, are Tactics Ogre's SNES/PS1 version, Chrono Trigger and Quintessence - The Blighted Venom. I also am very interested in learning about history, especially ancient and medieval history, and am ever curious to learn more about the world. This blog is mostly a grab bag of subjects that induced strong enough feelings in me. Most notable among them are a series of challenge runs of the Star Ocean 2 remake, a long form commentary on To the Moon that I am not particularly proud of these days, and, more recently, LPs of the classic Mana games . I am ever eager to talk about my interests, and am very accepting of feedback, as long as it is given in good faith. If you wish to contact me, you may do so through the following means: Shoot an email to dev221117@gmail....

Tactics Ogre: Rise of Chaos

By
 Tactics Ogre is, for the uninitiated, an isometric psuedo 3D strategy RPG about an island kingdom plunged in ethnic conflict, civil war, and general chaos. Our dear protagonists ostensibly try to fight for the survival of their own ethnicity at first, but things get complicated and weird fast. Gripping storyline aside, this is a game that gives you lots of fun tools, letting you mock almost anything and everything, up to the final boss himself! Let me demonstrate... Before we begin Give everyone a bow and a herb, recruit one extra chaotic male and lawful female human, and two gryphons, both chaotic. The humans can be any element, but the gryphons should only be air based. All of the above can be purchased from the starting shops, just keep walking back and forth and checking the shops if they don't show up. Fight it Out! So, we're going to ignore the training session for as long as possible. Training is boring and we're trying to have fun. To do this, we'll intentional...
