Blue Dragon DLC: Cash for Items

Filed in archive Games on October 26, 2007

Blue Dragoneers with MS Points to burn may be interested in this latest bit of downloadable content for their favorite RPG - 6 in-game items with various functions and status effects:

* Whimsical Mind - growth item that enhances a few randomly-picked categories by 0-4 levels
* Way of Thieves - in-battle item that can steal rare items possessed by enemy creatures
* Devee phonograph" - allows you to listen to the "Devee-tribe dance"
* Nothing Glasses" - visualizes all "nothing" points by means of a star-looking symbol (oftentimes you'll find a lot of items that contain "nothing", followed by an English-speaking narrator saying "nothing").
* Shuffled Helmet" - item that adjusts magical and speed parameters (Magic +40 / Speed -40). Detrimental when used by itself because the speed parameter goes down by 50 points, but when equipped along with "Shuffled Breastplate" and "Shuffled Splint", this item can quadruplicate the Magic parameters and reverse the Speed parameters. So it becomes the strongest equipment in the game. (Magic +160 / Speed +40)
* Spring-wind Scarf" - adjusts characters' HP and Speed parameters by 20%

Back in my day we had to earn bonus items in our RPGs through gameplay. Kids these days just spend a couple bucks in the Live Marketplace. I'm not saying that one way is better than the other, but...okay, yes I am. Paying real money for something like this is kind of dumb.
