Guarding a BACK ATTACK!? | VANDAL HEARTS (PS1/PSX)
4(WARNING, BLOOD GRAPHICS)
so, for years i was under the impression that back attacks are impossible to guard but a while ago (while re-recording some footage) i had Ash guard a back-attack which left me quite surprised :D
since i wasnt expecting that to happen, i didnt have any recording software running at the time, but today i gave it another shot to see if i could recreate it and well, i did!
my theory for this is that the gap of stats between Ash (lvl6) and the Archer (lvl1) is so big (def and agi, i dont think hp or atk matters here) that the game doesnt care if you have your back exposed to the enemy.
Introduction ahead:
Hello there! :D
Welcome to my favorite game of all time :)
Its Vandal Hearts, the first of two (no there is no prequel from 2010.. :D) games. I have played it at least 20 times i believe and we will do it at least twice on the channel, maybe even a third time :)
This will be the 100% Run where i will show everything the game has to offer (to my knowledge), which means:
-all missions without any casualties (more on that later)
-all collectibles (chests and "hidden spots")
-all 6 trials (due to spoilers we will do them all at the end, makes it a bit more challenging as well)
-all "secret" dialogue (the first are in mission 4)
if you have any questions, suggestions, ideas or just want to say hello, feel free to write a comment down below! :)
SYNOPSIS:
Thousands of years ago, the holy man known to history as Toroah the Messiah traveled far and wide across the continent of Sostegaria, spreading his teachings throughout the land. After his death, his descendants and heirs assumed absolute political power over the region, forming the basis of the Holy Ashah Dynasty and ruling through a combination of religious doctrine and military power for millennia. The kings and queens of the Holy Ashah Dynasty, however, did not always rule wisely or justly, and, as time passed, the citizenry began to resent the power of their leaders.
Fifteen years ago, this growing discontent found its ultimate expression in the person of Arris the Sage, who united the desperate and resentful anti-royal factions throughout Sostegaria and shaped them into a powerful guerrilla army. Under the cunning leadership of Arris, this Liberation Army managed to outwit and outmaneuver the Royal Army, and finally smashed through to the palace of the Ashah Dynasty itself, and burnt it to the ground.
With the monarchy dissolved, the rebels establish a ruling council founded on the principles of democracy and popular sovereignty. From the ashes of the Holy Ashah Empire emerges the Republic of Ishtaria. The leaders of the revolution naturally assumed leadership positions within the new republic: all, that is, except for Arris himself, who suddenly disappeared and has not been seen of, nor heard of, ever since.
Today, the fledgling republic is in increasingly dire straits: the autocratic Minister of Defense, Hel Spites, and his elite anti-terrorism squad, the Crimson Guard, are using ever-increasing force to stamp out the last vestiges of resistance to Ishtarian rule, while they allow outlaws to roam the countryside and pirates to sail the seas. Meanwhile, Ash Lambert and his colleagues at the third battalion of the Ishtarian Security Forces begin to suspect a conspiracy at the highest levels of government.
