Aight, I decided to give this a go since pregnancy is in now (a bit at least, it seems), and a Goblin game without that just isn't a goblin game.
Anyway: The combat is a joke, right? I am at the third fight in the game (Goblina), and the numbers just are completely off: Goblina has something like 2K HP, the Layer has about a 50/50 chance to hit her for ~80 damage, building up TP takes ages (and the Priestess does zero damage unless I use Bonk, which consumes all of her TP)... and Goblina cannot even manage to hit anything after her initial burst. In short: I have been sitting on this fight for ten minutes watching three bitches ineffectually slap each other. That's not a fight that's designed to be fun or challenging, right? It's a commentary on RPGMaker fights, a prank fight, if you will.
(I'm not usually one to use the cheat option, but in that case, it seems like an anti-cheat: It just removes the need to cycle through fifty combat turns to get her HP down)
...I'm not mad or anything, I'm just a bit baffled and bemused, in a "Nani the fuck?!" sort of way :-D.
