The twenty-ninth episode of Throne of Games, originally streamed at 7pm ET on January 12th, 2013.

It takes us a while to get going due to technical difficulties and a lack of preparation time beforehand, but eventually, we set out on Promathia mission The Savage...and get sidetracked by every NM we see. One of which kills us horribly. XP Oh well. We stop getting distracted at that point, and set out to fight Ouryu in earnest. It is...much easier than we had prepared for.

Y'see, Chains of Promathia missions used to be notorious for their difficulty, due to being levelcapped. When this notoriety started making it difficult for new players to find enough people willing to do the content, though, they uncapped it, making it so we latecomers can just waltz right through.

We also psyched ourselves up, and were then disappointed, over SAM/DRK, a combination we expected to be hilariously explosive both for the target and for the player.

We finish in the Sacrarium, but are unable to proceed very far into it, because drop rates and time slot limitations.

I really enjoy voicing the characters as we play, so that becomes a running thing with this game. I try to stick with one consistent voice for each character -- sometimes the voices evolve, sometimes I repeat voices, but I try to keep them distinct, at least. If nothing else, it's a fun exercise to switch between them quickly and repeatedly.

Watch Throne of Games live Saturday nights!
