I STILL have way too many games!

Well, 6 years after my last post and I still have too many game that I have yet to finish. This blog is to help me keep track of my progress on them! (Spoilers. Duh.)

Most people would just have a rec room in their basement...

Well the gang made it to the port city, well the port before the port they are after, but they run into a snag. The governor of the town is over taxing the citizens in order to pay for his collection of dangerous creatures he keeps in his basement, and if they can't pay they become food for the beasties. Just to be even more evil, he's using a weather machine to land lock all the ships so the people can't even hope to pay their taxes. On the up side the group finally run into Flynn, and after explaining the situation off camera (so I still don't know what Estelle had to tell him) he agrees not to arrest Yuri right away and even tries to see if the governor is connect to the orb stealing. The governor uses the legal system and his position to prevent Flynn from entering his home, so Yuri and the gang bust in so Flynn can enter on the grounds of stopping a robbery. Things go according to plan (with some help from the guy who helped Yuri escape from jail in the beginning) until someone riding a dragon flies into the place, blows up the weather machine and causes enough distraction for the governor to escape. The gang chase him onto a boat but he and the one in charge of the orb stealing get away as they deal with the assassin they met up with back at the castle. After the fight the group rescues some blond noble guy and finally makes it to the port they were heading to in the first place.

The difficulty level in the game suddenly jumped during the trip to the port town, before I could fight through most encounters in a matter of seconds, but currently at least 1 party member nearly dies every few fights and I'm going through healing items like crazy. Maybe it just means that I need to grind a lot more between destinations.
