What do you think of Episode 4 of
Structurally, episode 4 is similar to last week’s episode, but executed more successfully . The party is still hanging out in the village, meeting new friends, adding people, and fighting monsters, but every element here is more fleshed out than in episode 3.
First of all, I think Romana is better than Meran more interesting characters. You could argue that’s because I’m partial to women who will snatch all my worldly possessions and giggle while doing so – and you’d be right – but she does provide a bit of team friction in a fun way (most often That kind of RPG adventure party thrives on getting inside Jiro’s skin. She plays it innocently, sandbags before cleaning, and not only is it a fun character moment, it leads to a really fun smash, From “omg how we play” to she has everyone’s money and then some.
The monster threat is more attractive this week too. Last week’s elephant was…well…basically just an elephant, and this week’s river fish has something a little more Interesting trick. Of course, outwardly, it’s very similar to Elephant: a huge gray normal creature with red eyes that hisses at parties. But it absorbs water through its tentacles to shoot machine guns of water droplets and will The way it’s used to suppress Jiro’s fire is interesting. I certainly don’t have this on my bingo card, and the novelty more than makes up for the mundaneness of the design.
Now that our party is fully formed and in their airship, let’s see what the future holds.
