It's also worth mentioning that there are some features in this version that are actually going to be cut from the final release, such as double-turns being removed since you could attack and defend on the same turn and was generally bad for balance.

Double turns will very much be in the final version.  However, items that provide double turns have been severely nerfed and you can no longer defend on the "second" turn.

Other than that, everything else said is basically correct.  Note that this is much closer to an alpha than a beta.

P.S. The other versions are in fact in the download section.

There's three things to keep in mind here:

• M is 10, I is 11, the green numbers are 16 + the number (so green 5 is 21), S is 26, the blue numbers are 27, 28, 29, and 30, and the cursor is 31.
• Every monster can have at most 30k HP per life, after which any extra damage is ignored. So doing 10k+10k+10k will result in the same thing as 14k+15k+31k.
• The damage will be much clearer in v9, whenever that comes out.

To be clear: I'm not saying they ARE unbalanced; I'm saying they MIGHT be unbalanced. Either way, I didn't fight them at all in v8.

On a positive note, when v9 comes out, the balance (especially early game) should be much tighter.

I'm assuming this is for v8. With that in mind...

I never actually fought those enemies, so for all I know they're completely unbalanced. From what I remember, you don't get a Trueform Pin until the end of Kero Sewers, so you'll just have to beat them quickly and hope they don't scarecrow your entire party for long or just avoid them entirely.

Like BTB said, it's unlikely it's ever coming back.  Which is unfortunate for a number of reasons, but them's the breaks

Regardless, darkkefka is currently having internet issues.  Once he's ready, he'll likely start this up again on these forums.

What sort of streamers are you looking for?

If the answer is "any", my Twitch ID is the same as my username (doomsday31415).

That's perfect, thanks!

It's certainly difficult to find information on the old versions with the old design.  Various threads typically talked about whatever version was the latest at the time (without actually specifying).

I don't see how limiting the forum to the two latest versions would help, though.  All it would do is make it even harder to find information on the older versions.

Instead, would it be possible to add a field to the thread topic to specify which version the thread is about?  This is a question for the mods/admins.
