Earthbound...

Ah yes, trying to get all of Poo's equipment then trying to get the special bat in Ness's dream (killing those krakens then resetting when you killed them all and have yet to obtain it). Very very tedious...ended up never picking it up.

I tried for it many times as well only to discover by chance that the Player's Guide was wrong. It's the Bionic Krakens in the final dungeon of the game that drop the Gutsy Bat and not the Krakens in Magicant.

Speaking of Earthbound, I tried for a very long time to get the Star Pendant that the Major Psychic Psycho supposedly drops and never got it. Same goes for the Goddess Ribbon, though I did get that one by chance on one file when I wasn't trying for it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I agree. The improvements of the second Suikoden over the first are greatly exaggerated. The first game has the superior soundtrack and I found the characters more likeable than anime girl Nanami and emo Jowy. I don't know why most Suikoden fans underrate the first game and overrate the second game like they do. More shallow characters? Not really. Flik for example is actually a more dynamic character in the first game than in the second.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Crissaegrim took a while but I did get it without getting too frustrated. It sure did make the last fight a joke. Not that the game is tough otherwise.

Ever since the first time I decided to get it, I go for it in every playthrough no matter how many Starman Supers I have to fight.

You're probably right. I've debated about that particular aspect of the game in the past.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
