Teetering the Edge of the Funniest Scene Ever

So, we had a suicidal airship engineer with a penchant for flashy exits recently leave the party, which means that we have a slot to fill. And look! The kid's got gumption! AND he's got some of the best conversations in the game. (Oh, come on. You've read this blog enough by now to know that I couldn't let a question like: "Haven't you tasted enough of his power?" go without an immature response like, I bet he didn't last night! [See also: Kamarile + Your Mom]).

Anyhoo, the funny conversations can't go on for long, because Angsty McCloudette gets all emo and sobby over the fact that there's been a ridiculously high body count.

No. Really. She has. See?

This is one of those times that we take fancy 3d graphics for granted. I mean, sure, the characters don't have wacky hair....

Er, okay. So maybe they do. But here, where they could have a reasonable polygon-based cry, we have to resort to "-sob- -sob-".



But, on the bright side, with all the sprites dedicated to casting spells, they can at least use those in cutscene......

Oh.

Right.

They didn't.

(In case you haven't noticed, I pretty much took a screenshot of every single line of dialogue that took place here in the cave of princely delights. They're just that good.)

Something else good -- we're almost at the end of the game! One of these mornings, readers, one of these mornings.... BAM! POW! Right to the moon!
