    The first time I cleared this game on Epic back in high school, I honestly wasn't serious about actually clearing the whole game this way (I had previously done it on Easy and Normal). I was kind of pleasantly surprised when I beat it.
    I kind of want to play some of the older games again now...

    I just decided to play Hard mode on this game. Zombie Goku is by far the most demanding boss that I have fought in any JRPG and you need to respond to all of his attacks.
    The fact that he poisons you and it STACKS is the most annoying part of this fight. I decided to ignore the poison, because I thought I can't waste my turn purifying it. I rather have Natalie constantly using Healmore or Judgement to keep herself alive and have Matt pump him with Seikens because Natalie is too busy healing.
    Then he dispels the ONE party member. Which makes you choose whether you should either re-establish buffs or live without those buffs. If it was designed that the boss dispels both, no questions, you need to re-establish. But he doesn't and it all leads up to chance, its just not good design. If you guess wrong on what he's going to do next turn and he used Spirit Bomb when you're not healed up, say goodbye to one of your party members. If Matt dies, its not that big of a deal, have Natalie revive him. If Natalie dies, you have to use a Water of Life.
    But my biggest problem is when he seals your spells. You have to waste a turn having Natalie purify or use an Antidote, instead of healing. So, what happens when he Spirit Bombs after sealing your spells? You're probably not healed, and you die.
    That fight is so luck-based because he has so many potent and powerful moves. Remove the seal ability, give a warning when he's using Spirit Bomb on the next turn, and it will still be a really hard fight. (Which there really should be a warning. The Spirit Bomb needs at least 2 Dragon Ball Z episodes to charge in the show.) If you game over at the last boss of the game, you have to redo this whole campaign ALL OVER AGAIN just to refight the Final boss. Especially when he's the Final boss. Its just an insult of my time. But the game is great, I think its really funny and well programmed for a flash game. Its a shame we have to have this really bad egg of a Final boss. Named Zombie Goku.

      Yeah the game definitely isn't balanced around higher difficulties.
      I use Natalie to attack solely because Judgment heals. I'm ok with Natalie dying since she still gets to take her turn if Matt revives her. IIRC Matt dying led to instant game overs most of the time.

      Valkyrie (the final boss of EBF2) was also very demanding if you play on epic difficulty. Even with all the knowledge and good strategy, there is still some RNG involved.

      @@shoesama The damage part isn't a particularly big problem, since Matt can continue to have unlimited MP
      via Devil's Sunrise; Natalie, though, needs to Defend and hope that Goku/Roku uses Kamehameha in order to restore MP before the Spirit Bomb phase.
      The Seal abuse is the worst part, since that locks all healing options except Purify.
      I haven't yet tried using Matt's turns/MP to actively summon Mog/Balrog in hopes to get a good item effect on the right character (and that's assuming he's not Sealed/Syphoned, which means no chance of him curing that and/or Poison without straight-up using antidotes); the fact that Antidote and Water of Life/Holy Water only have a 1/15 chance of appearing makes it too extreme a gamble for the original version of the game and it's lack of save points. It MIGHT, however, be worth trying in the EBF Collection rerelease, since I think Matt said that he implemented autosave checkpoints...

    You know? There is other ways you can deal as much (or more) damage as a legend with less cost of mana and without sacrificing your defense in favor of more damage. (without Soul Eater) Just saying.
    Congrats on beating this game on Epic difficulty. That's a pretty good strategy on beating the Zombie Goku.

    • @shoesama
      @shoesama  3 роки тому +3

      Hmm, are there better attacks for Matt to use?
      I pretty much only used only used Matt to preserve Natalie's MP. Soul Eater was just there to do early stages faster. Faster runs = more runs = more attempts at Zombie Goku.

      @@shoesama Take Regice for example. Take the eruption add the damage boost from Inferno (Sword)add Regice's weakness to fire and add attack up and Regice defense down and you will end up dealing crazy damage. I'm pretty sure I did like 50K damage to Regice like that.
      There are times when Natalies is a better fit to be a heavy hitter like in Beholder and Regirock's fight. It's important to point out that Rune Blade does have a high magic attack so if Matt is gonna be hitting with magic (like Screamer and Power Metal) then equip Matt with Rune Blade.
      And finally, you could rely on good RNG by calling in Mog in hopes he/she will give ether to Natalie. It may slow down the process but discard Natalie as the main attacker in the name of conserving mana can also slow down the progress.

    Zombie goku is OP when you unlucky with rng, he can spam spirit bomb forever.
    And since he gets a extra turn after that attack and
    can follow up with a powerful sword strike that also removes buffs you done when matt is dead.
    Also revivng matt will result in a bug and not give him a turn and so goku instant wins.
    You lucked out to be able to save yourself since goku was low hp when he started using it on you.
    In my eyes the first game is the worst of the 5 because of those bugs and rng nonsense, else the fight is easy if lucky
    and hell if unlucky on epic, and you where super lucky, GG and to bad EBF6 will not come.

      You might know this, but the explanation in canon is that they were badly injured after the fight and then recovered by the events of EBF 2. It does retcon itself by going from "they died in the fight, the end" in EBF 1 to "they didn't die, they were only severely injured after the fight and now recovered just in time for these events to happen" in EBF 2. Though without that retcon, this video and the rest of the game series wouldn't exist so that's one way to think about it.
