Welcome to our fabulously remodeled Crescent Isle! But all is not well, as Vyse the Fallen Pirate has to deal with a trio of posers that are eroding his good name! Then it is off to The Lands of Ice to explore the Ruins of Ice and maybe smack down The Boss of Ice. And who should we find there but REDACTED FOR SPOILERS, who has been hanging out with the gigantic, purple, and faintly-fish smelling REDACTED FOR SPOILERS. After that glorious reunion, we take our newest engine out for a spin with some sidequests. Complete the crew with Ilchymis! Fight The Ixa’ness Demons! And Loose Cannon Lapen! Is anyone tired of Piastol yet? We’ll deal with her, too. More sidequests ahoy next week!
Let’s Play Skies of Arcadia
Night 8
October 14, 2025
Random Notes:
- BEAT is back from his fabulous anniversary vacation! Yay! The peanut gallery of Cassandralyn, Morning Song, Caithness, and Chromes did not get to have a vacation, though. Let’s eat BEAT alive!
- “It’s okay, I’m evil and gay, too.”
- The ol’ Duck Dynasty Stream is mentioned. That was apparently from April of 2018, seven years ago, which feels vaguely impossible.
- We fight one of the four (or five) giant monsters! Smell you later, Alania! Now let’s talk about Parroty Interactive!
This Land of Ice society is either gone forever because it was too cold, or a severe lack of OSHA regulations.- For a little gameplay update, we do showcase the worst/goofiest/best weapons in the game. Eat lollipop!
- Caliscrub joins and demands more trash pirates. Sorry, we will never see them again.
- We reunite with Drachma. And get a purple rock. Wow! Productive afternoon!
- Megs joins just to demand a Kingdom Hearts cameo. This isn’t Smash Bros!
- You know what this chat needs? More Gundam discussion.
- “It’s a reaper! … I mean a cuttlefish.”
- Kishi made some lovely Streets of Rage 2 gifs from BEAT’s playthrough a million years ago, and they are reproduced below:
That’s good floor meat. - “It turns out there is a mastodon here. There is literally just a mastodon.”
- Please enjoy some late 90’s sexism filtered through anime stereotypes as we confront The Ixa’ness Demons.
- BEAT claims he is retiring for the night… and then we keep going for another 20 minutes. We just had to bring down that Roc…
- You want another fight with Piastol? Because this is how you get another fight with Piastol.
- “Even Worse Streams: Good news, your dog is dead.” “Don’t make that the pull quote.”
- And we close out the night with some democracy, and vote that Aika’s face must be immortalized in stone.
Next flight on Skies of Arcadia: BEAT is our travel guide, and we will ignore him accordingly.
