Finally getting to this game.
- Starting a new game. We meet our protagonist: Dean
- DUNGEON - Hillside Ruins - just our standard first dungeon to show us the mechanics of the game. No battles yet
- TOWN - Capo Bronco - Dean's home village. We meet our second playable character here: Rebecca. It's neat, we see an NPC named Becky in Wild Arms 3 and she has the same kind of aesthetic to her. Somebody must have had a soft spot for her lol
- Looks like we have the search system back in this game. Spent a little bit of time on the world map using the search feature. Also, it looks like there are Berry trees we can search to get more berries, but they are not ripe yet at this point in the game. Guess they don't want us farming them at the beginning of the game.
- DUNGEON - Celestial Peak - we get introduced to the battle system here. It uses the Hex system like 4 but looks like we can all move and attack this time around. We don't get access to our Originals/skills until later so not much strategy is needed
- NEW PARTY MEMBER - we come across a mysteriously lady who fell from the sky - she suffers from amnesia and nothing much else - we decide to take her back to the village with us. Her name is Avril.
- back home Dean decides to help Avril and take her to the next town. Rebecca decides to tag along. Clearly she cares greatly for Dean but I don't think Dean quite sees this
- DUNGEON - Abandoned Path - This dungeon was longer than I was expecting. They do something different in this game then the tool system from previous games. We get to shoot from our ARMs!
- we get access to Mediums and originals here. Like Wild Arms 3, these give is access to our abilities called Originals and these also boost our stats. We got three mediums but only two that are usably. A Sky and Sea medium, Sky is for healing and Sea is for attack magic. I end up giving the healing to Rebecca as she is the fastest character and the magic one on Avril as her
- GC points come back from Wild Arms 4 but this time there is a slight penalty to using them. Each level gives one GC point and we can use these points to allocate to the medium originals to learn new abilities earlier however, each time you use one, your HP lowers by 50. It might be more later but so far its 50 right now.
- we make our way out of the dungeon and get a a cut scene introducing the bad guys

As far as uploading goes. I am already done with Wild Arms XF but still have to upload the vids from Twitch and just started this one. So if you want to catch them, feel free to watch them on my Twitch Channel.
