Some of our landings were desperate adventures.

We are now prepared to meet the inevitable counter-attacks with power and with confidence.

My name is Gary Butterfield.

My name is Cole Ross.

And you're listening to Bonfire Side Chat.

It is a versatile favorite.

Yes.

And this week is an appendix episode about the different prosthetic tools.

Throughout the season, we talked about getting these and we talked about them in cursory fashion.

But now we are wrapping them up because we have gotten all of them.

I think the last one we acquired was the finger whistle.

Yeah.

And I wanted to do this now because my first play through the game, I didn't use a whole lot, other than a couple of them, but I didn't use the wide variety of them. On my second playthrough, I made a concentrate effort to upgrade and use more of them. Yes. So it didn't, you know, the kind of sea change maybe, like flip-flop on my attitude about it didn't happen. Right. Like one of the things that I wanted, I don't want to see if your experience comports with this goal. Like, you know, no need to present a unified front if you feel different about this. But to me, like on the second run through where I really tried to use prosthetic tools, I do feel a little bit like they're a missed opportunity. And it reminds me of, we just covered Final Fantasy 5 for Woff.

Yeah.

And it's like in Final Fantasy for in that episode or in those episodes, we talked about how like,

if status effects on bosses, don't work on bosses, don't include them.

Right?

Like there's no point in them.

Yeah.

I feel not quite that far, but a little bit like that with prosthetic tools.

Because a lot of them are very useful for like mobs and regular enemies and a very limited use with bosses.

And as much as I, you know, we have been going to bat for the stealth in this game as like being really fun.
