Let's Play Widenyo (SFW!!!!!!!)

I haven't finished the other Lp yet (will I ever finish it?) but I decided to do a short LP on another game.

Widenyo (or something like that)

I already mentioned the game Widenyo in another thread.
A NON-PORN game by Alicesoft. It recently got translated.
To play it you need the Alicesoft 2010 pack, which includes Rance 02.

I decided to make a short LP to show you the gameplay.


The plot is almost nonexistant, according to the intro, in this nation there are several walking castle's that are used for war. The king of one of the smaller castles, castle Mamatoto, has always tried to avoid fighting by running away. But after so many wars he has decided to find a certain something in a mysterious cave (in order to bring world peace). And there is where we start.




Waydenty3_ActiveWindow.jpg


The game has only one autosave (so you are playing Ironman), I delete the previous data and start again.

Let's start....


…...


wayden4_ActiveWindow.jpg

This is prince Nanus, a genious tactician.

wayden5_ActiveWindow.jpg

And this is the king.

wayden6_ActiveWindow.jpg


wayden7_ActiveWindow.jpg


(I will be skipping some chatter)

Now the princess appears, Nanus's twin sister.

wayden10_ActiveWindow.jpg


We inform her that the Hero summoning machine is complete.


Other characters appear...
wayde12_ActiveWindow.jpg


I'm not sure who this guy is supposed to be. In the Rance series there is a guy called like him, Rick Addison. They use the same sword, look similar..., but this one seems to be native to this world, and you can summon another Rick Addison, so I guess this is an alternate version of him. He is one of our best fighters.
(I will talk about the others later).

But let's start with the summoning...





We activate the machine ''Ideyon'' ...

wyden13_ActiveWindow.jpg


After the blue flash of light disipates...

wyden14_ActiveWindow.jpg


A small girl appears... (this first summon is a fixed one).

wyden15_ActiveWindow.jpg


(I will skip irrelevant chatter)


Her name is Arietta, and apparently she was in an adventure with her friends or something.

We explain her that we have summoned her because we need heroes to get an item to bring world peace (true story), and that when she is unsummoned she will go back to the same point in space and time. She agrees to help us (like everyone else).


Let's start playing!

wyden16_ActiveWindow.jpg


This is the dungeon map.

Enemies come from the right, when they reached the casltle we lose 1 of 5 HP, we reach 0: Game Over.

We counter them with our heroes. We click on UNITS.

wyd17_ActiveWindow.jpg


We deploy our bros.

wyde18_ActiveWindow.jpg


The guy on the top has ranged attacks (Stolin).
The first girl with read hair (Myra) attacks with a sword, the next is Rick, our best fighter.
Next one is princess Avui, a caster. Then we have a couple of old guys (the fat one is awfull) and finally Arietta who has very high DEF.

(The only character I knew was Rick).

Here you can see what each atribute does...


wyde19_ActiveWindow.jpg


….

We start advancing.




When attacking we get a 2D animation (we can turn it off)

wyd20_ActiveWindow.jpg


wyd21_ActiveWindow.jpg


Every turn we can move and attack. Sometimes we trigger a special move: Critical strike, a second attack, AoE or we can relocate the enemy.

Enemies respawn constantly.

wyd24_ActiveWindow.jpg



After dealing some pain we get XP.

Experience goes to a common pool and we can assign it from the LVL screen (we can do that with deployed units).
With Exp we can also buy ''KIDS''. These kids advance 3 tiles every turn and by expending more points in stamina they can last 1-4 attacks.

wyd26_ActiveWindow.jpg


We buy a treasure collecting kid and we send him to get the pile of gems (summon ore).
We make sure to keep enemies away from him.


When the kid gets the ore we go to the summon screen...

wyde28_ActiveWindow.jpg


This time we get a completly random character.


Who will we get??

wyde29_ActiveWindow.jpg


wyde30_ActiveWindow.jpg


USED GOODS!!

...err I mean Kouhime. (Is nice to get a known character in the first attempt in this LP).

wyden32_ActiveWindow.jpg


wyden33_ActiveWindow.jpg


After some killer dango jokes we recruit her. (Her dango is treated as a weapon in Rance Quest LOL).

Here she has a short range attack...with her dango.

We level her to Lvl 5 (everyone starts at 1)
wyd34_ActiveWindow.jpg




We deploy her and another kid to pick the treasure...

wyd35_ActiveWindow.jpg




So far our enemies have been the galmonsters Kyankyan and some kind of robots (they have a chance to drop summon ore).

….

The kid gets us a resistance potion...
wyd36_ActiveWindow.jpg


This is the item screen. We can aply the potion to a undeployed character to permanently boost their RES (after this the potion dissapears). Other items are put into each chacters inventory. Inventory space is limited, but some items can be shrunk for a fee.
wyd37_ActiveWindow.jpg



Now I will advance a level. The castle can move by pressing advance. We advance 1 tile.
New and more powerfull enemies appear. We also get a Mercenary.

wyd38_ActiveWindow.jpg


Her name is Raisen and has a decently powerfull melee attack.

wyd39_ActiveWindow.jpg


This is a new area, that hole can open a portal to special levels.

But first we have to deal with some problems. We have overall low health.
Some strong wind in the cave drops everyone's health each turn, that couple to enemies mean that our bros will be defeated. When defeated or when you make them retreat they go back to the castle. After this they start a KOOL-down until you can deploy them again. Considering that enemies respawn all the time you have to be clever and keep a group of bros around to stop the enemies.


We make everyone retreat and use Raisen and the fat guy to block the enemies.

wyd40_ActiveWindow.jpg


The rest of our bros return in time.
wyd41_ActiveWindow.jpg


We also desice to open the portal...
wyd42_ActiveWindow.jpg


wyd43_ActiveWindow.jpg


We will need to drop 4 bros inside.
But that can put us in danger since whatever happens on the other side, when our bros return they

will enter another kooldown, so our castle will be in danger. First we will level a bit.

….

Once we level a bit and equip items we prepare a group to get into the portal...

wyd44_ActiveWindow.jpg


We have reached our maximum Character Cost.

Each character has a set cost, wich increases with their level. For every map level we advance we have a MAX of 25 CC (the amount of CC we can field). Right now it's 50. Wich means we can grind much. The higher level bros you field the fewer they will be. (And you usually need numbers to keep the enmies to reach the castle).


After we send 4 bros to the portal we appear in this battle. We have to defeat them all.

wyd45_ActiveWindow.jpg


3 Hanniwa (weak but inmune to magic), 2 PixieFOX (fast), 2 ranged ''Magisco'' girls and a Yankee.

Yes, the Alicesoft analogue of Goblins are a caricature of KWAs.


We easily win. Our reward is a prisoner.

wyd46_ActiveWindow.jpg


Some kind of lizard guy who joins our ranks. His name is Hiro, and even if he is slow he is strong and usefull.

wyd47_ActiveWindow.jpg


We level him and field him with some bros. And we advance to level 3.

wyd47_ActiveWindow.jpg


Another portal and more Summon ore!
(The red thing is an enemy, the ''piston machine'', quite strong)

When our planewalker team is back on duty we will send another kid.


…..

Even if you plan things well you can still be screwed.

wyd49_ActiveWindow.jpg


The kid we sent was ambushed by undead, they can attack in the same turn they spawn.
If your kid is defeated you will have to send another one ASAP, since ores, treasures, etc. have a counter.


But at last we get the ore and we summon another hero!

wyda50_ActiveWindow.jpg


:desu:

wyda51_ActiveWindow.jpg


wyda52_ActiveWindow.jpg


Uesugi Kenshin!! :love:

We explain her the situation.


wydda54_ActiveWindow.jpg



:yeah:


My first 2 random summons in this LP are Rance characters. I like where this is going :smug:

Second update. Sorry but no Rance characters this time. :(



We send our bros (including Kenshin) into the portal, to the map Waterway.

wwyd2_ActiveWindow.jpg


wwyden3_ActiveWindow.jpg


Kenshin is awesome. Good attack and long movement distances. We win easily and get some items.


We advance to level 4 and find another portal.

wwyden4_ActiveWindow.jpg


After some leveling we will go into the portal again.

wwydd5_ActiveWindow.jpg


We will go to the map ''Hanny challenge''

wwyydde7_ActiveWindow.jpg


We have to fight a bunch of Hanniwa.

wydde9_ActiveWindow.jpg


This map is tricky, since it's full of rocks and wall section. If we go to attack them we will get stuck with each other while they attack us with their Hanny flash. We will let them aproach us first.


We get some items.

wwyde10_ActiveWindow.jpg


I'm not sure how those are used yet.

We advance to Level 5!

In this area we find a Hell Hole. They increase spawn rate and produce Inmuno-Megaespheres (some kind of big cell). We fill it with another kind of kid. (And a treasure).
As soon as we get more bros operative we will send two kids...

After filling it we advance to level 6. There is another portal here.

wwyddde14_ActiveWindow.jpg


We enter.

wyddeed15_ActiveWindow.jpg


This time we have to defeat the yellow block before we run out of time. The enemy outside doesn't attack, but reduces everyone's reach to 1. Therefore we just use a couple of characters to open the path to the yellow guy.

At last Kensin gets to him and defeats him in one hit. We get more items.



We advance to area 7. We get a new merc. Cocoona has a short range attack, like Kou.

wydde17_ActiveWindow.jpg


We also have more summon ore and explosive mushrooms. If we don't send another kid before the count reaches 0 the castle loses 1 HP.
When we have more members ready we will deploy 2 kids more.

…..

wwwyydd18_ActiveWindow.jpg


We get the summon ore and stop the explosion...

….

Who we will summon this time?

wyyd20_ActiveWindow.jpg


A total no one. Some kind of caster maid.

Also...

wwwyysd21_ActiveWindow.jpg


:hmmm:

Err... We advance.

wwyddd22_ActiveWindow.jpg



A kid gets us gold (we use it to shrink items, so we can equip more).

2wwydd4_ActiveWindow.jpg


In area 9 we have another portal and a summon ore...


We get the ore...

wyydddw6_ActiveWindow.jpg



wwyyyd7_ActiveWindow.jpg


wwwwwyydddd10_ActiveWindow.jpg



Let's get the portal....



We go to the poligon world...
It's populated by poligon monsters...

wwwydden11_ActiveWindow.jpg


Their cannon on the right side kicks our ass.

wwyydee12_ActiveWindow.jpg



But we have a secret weapon.


Uesugi_Kenshin.jpg



Not!


tumblr_m4cde1dAka1r3ocrzo1_r1_400.jpg



Sorry, but not...


Kenshin_%28woman%29-nobuambittendou.jpg



Almost there...


7a8aeb404d05cb5e96e886d7819f15fa.jpg


Yes. The Goddess of war!



180x214x75x0.jpg
Bishamonten, grant me your blessing!!

Kenshin wins the fight for us.




We get a resurrection item. When a character's HP reaches 0 they get back to their 100%, ideal for dungeons .

wwwwydee14_ActiveWindow.jpg


(Very useful for portal maps, don't waste them!)


About the items...
Some increase your atributes while equiped (limited space).

wwwydydee15_ActiveWindow.jpg



Other items increase the special effects of your attacks, like counterattack.

wwcvfbhxcv16_ActiveWindow.jpg



Others can be used to activate special skills....


wwwydzsdgf17_ActiveWindow.jpg


And some expendable items increase your atributes permanently...

wwwydd18_ActiveWindow.jpg


….

We advance to level 10.

we have to deal with another hell hole.

wwwwyydeeed2_ActiveWindow.jpg


We will send a kid when our bros are active...

wwwwyydeeed2_ActiveWindow.jpg


If you want to play dirty you can send another kid to attract the attacks...

So I will send a hole filling kid and a Treasure hunter one...

After filling the hole we advance more, getting another merc.

wyddddfsf3_ActiveWindow.jpg



The new area has an explosive mushroom (mushboom), another summon ore and a portal.

We send 2 kids...

…..


wwwydden4_ActiveWindow.jpg


….

We get the summon ore and....

wwydden5_ActiveWindow.jpg


wwwydw6_ActiveWindow.jpg


wwwwwyydeyyd8_ActiveWindow.jpg


wwwdsdgfyye10_ActiveWindow.jpg


...we get the BRO of the protagonist of Bing Bang Age (Gou)!

Ok, it could be worse...

(apparently everyone targets him, interesting)


We send our bros to the portal, forming a wall of dooom!

wwydden11_ActiveWindow.jpg


We go to the Swamp portal map.

Another kill'em all mission.

wyydde12_ActiveWindow.jpg


wwwwwwyyyde13_ActiveWindow.jpg


wyyddeed14_ActiveWindow.jpg


Of course we win...

We are rewarded with items...



And we advance to area 12!

wwydde15_ActiveWindow.jpg


2wwyddd2_ActiveWindow.jpg


We deal with the counters and advance.

(Rigth now most of our bros are around lvl 15-20, the best of them getting the best items).

In the Level 13 of the map...

2wwyyddd3_ActiveWindow.jpg


After getting the summon ore we will send our planewalker team (Kenshin, Rick, Kou, Hiro...) into the portal.

We get some dude...

2wwyddd5_ActiveWindow.jpg



Now we will level a team to assault the portal later.

We get to the Yankee Stadium map...

2wydekwa6_ActiveWindow.jpg


2wyddkwa7_ActiveWindow.jpg


We win and capture a PixieFOX galmonster.

2wyddkwa8_ActiveWindow.jpg




We advance, getting another merc.

2wwyydde9_ActiveWindow.jpg


Some kind of elf caster...

In the new area we will have to deploy the 3 kids at once.

After getting the ore we summon some kind of miko/nun, Chitose.

2wyydexsxd11_ActiveWindow.jpg


After dealing with the counters we will advance to level 15.

2wyyde12_ActiveWindow.jpg

If you get Rance, How would Nanus convince him to not to murder all the dudes and rape the chicks.

Can you Save scum to get character?

There is only one save, the game autosaves.

I guess I could delete the save and use a backup or something like that. But for now I will stay with the 1/150 odds of gettin Rance for each random summon.

LEVEL 15



By killing one of the ''robots'' we get a summmon ore and use it automatically...


22wwyd2_ActiveWindow.jpg



22wwysd3_ActiveWindow.jpg



:(

….


22wwyddd5_ActiveWindow.jpg



We send our elite bros into the portal.


22wydd6_ActiveWindow.jpg



To win we have to avoid losing any of our units. We will let them aproach us and then we attack them with everything.


22wwydd7_ActiveWindow.jpg



After getting some items we advance...


22wyyddds8_ActiveWindow.jpg



Let's see if we can pick someone better this time...

…...

22wwwyddd9_ActiveWindow.jpg



wwwyydd11_ActiveWindow.jpg


We get some kind of jap princess...

22wwwydydd12_ActiveWindow.jpg



Let's keep advancing.


I will check statistics...

22wwydydd13_ActiveWindow.jpg


More than 150 characters (20-30 are Rance characters iirc).

22wwwyd14_ActiveWindow.jpg


After we get the kids to their destination we get into the portal...

22wwydd15_ActiveWindow.jpg


At this time we have to deal with magical enemies. They are quite common in Alicesoft games.
Those things are some kind of construct/undead hybrids, created using the bodies of dead wizards (but they are not real undead neither).

This series of monsters have imaginative names like Rommel, Himmler, Hitler ….
The ones here are from weakest to strongest: Rust (green), Rommel (blue) and Goering (red).

22wyyd16_ActiveWindow.jpg


I really need more good ranged units, in this map I have a serious disadvantage.
One by one our bros fall.

222wyyd17_ActiveWindow.jpg

222wyyd17_ActiveWindow.jpg

222wyyd17_ActiveWindow.jpg

Even Kenshin is defeated, but ''resurrect'' to 100% of her health thanks to an item. Rick and her finish the level. We get more items and advance.

22wyydd18_ActiveWindow.jpg



….

After killing a certain enemy we get 2100Gold!
We also get this guy...

22wyydd19_ActiveWindow.jpg


Apparently he is some kind of otaku from another world. Loves this place since it looks like a cosplay convention... He is actually quite decent (summons a mecha to stomp his enemies).



At last we get a kid to the ore...
22wwyyddd22_ActiveWindow.jpg


At last we have potato!

….

I send our bros to the portal...

3wydden2_ActiveWindow.jpg



We have to fight a group of Galmonsters.

3wyyde4_ActiveWindow.jpg


One of them is called Bondage Master.

After defeating them we get a Magisco, her name is Magic Scorpion.

3wyydd6_ActiveWindow.jpg


We advance...

33wydde7_ActiveWindow.jpg


You already know the drill. We deploy our kids...

3wyyde9_ActiveWindow.jpg


We advance and get another merc.

3wydd10_ActiveWindow.jpg


3wyyd11_ActiveWindow.jpg


I will have to level the regular bros, they are only in the 15-20 lvl range. I will try keeping everyone (except for the most useless ones) a couple of levels above the map level.


After much grinding we get evryone's minimum level to 22. We also kill a guy that gives us this.

3wwwwyddd2_ActiveWindow.jpg


3wwwwdyyddd3_ActiveWindow.jpg


:yeah:

3wyyyddd4_ActiveWindow.jpg


3wwwwwdyyddd5_ActiveWindow.jpg


The main heroine of Rance VI. Originally stuck in a wheelchair, she was the leader of a resistance group (to know more play the game or wait for the LP). One of Rance's women, she appeared as a reinforcement in Sengoku Rance. Fights with some kind of supercrossbow.


I'm going to turn her in our best ranged.

A few turns later the same thing happens again.


Who will we get?

333wyddd6_ActiveWindow.jpg


Senhime, the War Princess!!

Praised be the RNG Gods!

33wyddd10_ActiveWindow.jpg

For those who don't know/remember her from SR, she was the princess of the Tokugawa until their country was invaded by the furry army. Of course Rance rapesrescues her and she joined forces with him.
She loves war. We convince her to kill some monsters with us.

I will level her...

33wwyydd11_ActiveWindow.jpg


:obviously:

We visit the portal...


3wwwd12_ActiveWindow.jpg


The crowned skull is invulnerable until we defeat his minions, let's try our luck....

The attacks from the boss are very strong, Hiro is the first to fall...

3wwwydd13_ActiveWindow.jpg


Senhime survives everyone's attacks for a long time, by the time she is defeated we have killed all the minions...

3wyyd18_ActiveWindow.jpg


The boss dies with ease and we are awarded items. We advance...

3wyyd19_ActiveWindow.jpg


We will get the summon ore...

3wyyd20_ActiveWindow.jpg


33wyyddd21_ActiveWindow.jpg


We get some blonde chick...

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, at least we got those 2.

I hope that for the next update we get someone cool. Rance would be fine (But no one is more COOL than Sill), the already-not rebellious maidens would be fine too, since I need some strong ranged units.

Fuck the RNG gods.
--------------------------------------------

I recomend checking this chart to know what characters to focus on if you are going to play this...
http://alicesoft.wikia.com/wiki/Widenyo:Character_stats

...
For example, the first character we get, Arietta starts with high defence, but her defence gain per level is one of the highests.
Characters like Kenshin and the 2 versions of Rick Adison (the first from the list included) have the highest attack values, in fact they will leave Rance in 3-4th position. But he has S talent, wich means he takes less EXP to level.

Overall there is some kind of balance, but you have some obviously better characters.

We send a group of girls to the ''No Boys Allowed'' map...

4wyyddd2_ActiveWindow.jpg


4wyydd3_ActiveWindow.jpg


We are confronted by several monster boys...


One of those monsters has an interesting name. Attacks with his butt...

4wwydd5_ActiveWindow.jpg



This monk like guy seems to be the a ''Kite Clone''

4wyyddd6_ActiveWindow.jpg


Who or what is Kite?
In the Rance world there is a monk like DarkLord/Demon called Kite. Thankfully his clones are much weaker and have no invulnerability field...

One by one we kill them all...

After winning we advance...
4wyyddddxs7_ActiveWindow.jpg


In this map we invade the portal, we choose the second Waterway map...

4wwwyyddd8_ActiveWindow.jpg


4wyyyddd9_ActiveWindow.jpg


We only lose Arietta.
By the way, the pink enemy on the right is an Uppi, a fire monster.

Once upon a time in the Rance world, one of those received the Demon King's blood, turning into the good old Xavier, the Dark Lord who terrorized JAPAN.
But this one is a regular monster and Kenshin kills it in one blow.

After this we advance to the next map (treasure + portal).

We get a merc.

4wwydyddd12_ActiveWindow.jpg


….

We get into the new portal, again to fight Hanny's.

4wyydzvcd13_ActiveWindow.jpg


This map is tricky. We can only have a couple of melee units attacking at the same time, and we can only use non-magic based units for ranged combat.

4wwyddd14_ActiveWindow.jpg


We have MANY loses. Thankfuly the dumb cannon hannys (the stones), focus on Arietta, who has huge DEF/RES.

4wyyddds15_ActiveWindow.jpg


The Goddess of War grants us victory...


We get this guy, Hannyoshi, a ''half-hanny''.
4wwdydyd16_ActiveWindow.jpg


We advance...
4wwydydd17_ActiveWindow.jpg




After dealing with the bomb and one of the holes I advance to 25...

Something happens...

44wwwxcddy2_ActiveWindow.jpg


Some characters are supposed to have utility skills, but since I have none...

In the new area...
44wyyddd3_ActiveWindow.jpg


We will get that ore...

44wyyddd4_ActiveWindow.jpg


44wwyddd5_ActiveWindow.jpg





We use the portal and get to the las Waterway map...
44wyyfffd6_ActiveWindow.jpg


One of the monsters reduces our range to 1, making Urza useless...

44wyyddds7_ActiveWindow.jpg


But we win.

LEVEL 26
4wwwyddddd8_ActiveWindow.jpg


Later in area 27 we get this guy, a fencer, he is quite decent...

4345wyydddsa4_ActiveWindow.jpg


….

Time to explore another portal....

5wyyds2_ActiveWindow.jpg


5wwyfg3_ActiveWindow.jpg


Himmler, Goebbels, Hitler … monsters attack!

….

I fucked up...

5wwyydded4_ActiveWindow.jpg


I lose. I will have to try another time.

I had no resurrection items and my tanks were underleveled...

I will advance...

….


…..

Not much to tell, I reach LEVEL 30 and summon this chick...

5wwwyddd8_ActiveWindow.jpg


now in level 30 I will grind and try to defeat the nazi mages again...

5wyyddf10_ActiveWindow.jpg


After a stroke of luck Kenshin get 3 duals attacks in a row (she attacks 4 times) and we win...

55wwyddd2_ActiveWindow.jpg



Later I get this girl...
55wwwuyddd5_ActiveWindow.jpg



And this robot girl...

55wyyddd10_ActiveWindow.jpg


I try my luck in another map too...

55wwyddd7_ActiveWindow.jpg


But those noncombative bitches take 1 movement point from us. That is -12 movement to each. Fuck. Next time I will use ranged.
