The Bandit King

January 30th 2024 - I FINALLY BEAT BUG FABLES! WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO I AM SO HAPPY because that final boss was gruelling and the entire final area made my heart rate peak from the amount of anxiety I had. Overcoming it was no small feat but I finally did it and it feels amazing.

This was such a gratifying game to tick off from my backlog, and one that was a long time coming too. I’m so excited for the remake of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and I’m also glad I’ve cleared my gaming agenda for Persona 3 Reload on Friday!

 How is bug fable going?

team snakemouth gives me very found family. but with kabbu holding leif and vi on baby leashes. and on special occasions leif gives him a mini heart attack. 

vi is unoffical healer. im sorry it just worked out that way. let violet cuss. i just think vi calling mothiva  a bitch would clear my skin. also who would give this girl numbing needles and think its okay??!

i suck at using leif. always flat on his face post battle. also think vi calls him granddad or pipa to push his buttons about being really old. 

i dont care what you think hk and bf are in the same universe one above ground the other below. fight me in the streets about it.

(Sorry for bad formatting, I copy + pasted this from where I posted it on another social medium.)

All throughout the game, lesser bugs are reckless, primitive creatures that will attack anything that moves. However, in the Forsaken Lands, things are very different. There are many examples of these “lesser bugs” displaying a higher level of intelligence than those elsewhere in Bugaria.

The first example is the Spider friend. Through a thick, foggy expanse you can find a small hole in which a spider resides. Spiders, as you may know, have not Awakened (the sorcerer is a Tarantula.) There’s a sign near it that says “pease leave items in front of hole. tanks” (Cute!) When you give the Spider items, she cautiously takes them and then pays you whatever amount of berries she thinks it’s worth. She can write in Bugnish and has somewhat of a concept of economy (though not a very good one, as she pays WAY too much.)

The second example is the false Ancient City. In the outskirts of the Forsaken Lands lies a small village. All of the citizens of this village are actually clusters of Mothflies in trench coats and masks. These Mothflies try to form some sort of kingdom like the Bugarians, but they speak gibberish. Nonetheless, they recognize a monarch and have houses (that they did not build).

The Mimic Spiders in the Forsaken lands are capable of standing up on two legs and walking around like an ant. The Primal Weevil can WHISTLE.
