Valendia may well have carved itself considerable new territory in recent years, even to the extent of annexing other nearby nations. Within Ivalice lies the country of Valendia it is an early-stage constitutional monarchy, with nobility wielding a considerable degree of power in politics, despite official power being in the hands of a Parliament. Thus, for example, Undercity West is presented in five sections, for the parts of it that can be visited coming from Town Center West, City Walls East, Abandoned Mines B2, and then opened with the Silver Key and Rood Inverse.įor more on the history of the Vagrant Story setting created by Yasumi Matsuno, including events that occurred in the past and future and in other games, see the article Ivalice. The sections from Leá Monde onwards are presented as in the individual area pages: in order of appearance as they become accessible ingame. Gameplay, however, is restricted to mostly Leá Monde, with the exception of a beginning sequence in Duke Bardoba's Manor. The cursed city of Leá Monde and four locations outside of Leá Monde are seen in cutscenes. I miss his cute, incessant moans lol.Ivalice is the grander setting of Vagrant Story, and cities and towns in it are mentioned in dialogue. maybe he'd help get my mind off of hiroyuki for a while. might also fuck around and play dmmd again just to see my darling boy clear. I played some of the hashihime demo on switch and I thought it was terribly depressing and a bit slow, but I hear it's worth it and a lot of people really love it so I might go for it after all. kinda looking forward to something lighter or at least more familiar afterward. I'm not sure if that's just something that shows up in maki's route either way but I kind of have a feeling that it only happens after you finish one route first? not sure though, might test it after I 100% the game (bc I will). like on your second route (maki for me) you get more of haru's inner thoughts and his interactions with taxi man, since you know hes a goddamn liar and he doesn't have amnesia after all.

I do like how the story slowly unfolds tho. his route hurt so bad and yet i'm sure it only gets worse from here.

if I had any creative spirit left in me I would probably write a fanfic where they reunite just bc it hurts my heart so much. I was already low key devastated by how hiroyuki's route ended bc he was so sweet the way he trusted haru (REAL GLAD I GOT TO SEE BOTH ENDINGS ON THAT ONE CAUSE YIKES LMAO) but then like.they just don't see each other again. NTY is really making me wanna pull my hair out.
