Another Creature Catcher Open World Game?

And we're back. Welcome to the video. Episode two of my amiibo playthrough. When I last left you, I had just finished the tutorial and now we are in the main island and they're about to take me through it. So, let's see what's going on. Oh, that was all the ones I caught, include Mr. Perfect here. So, now we'll get to find out what's the benefit of capturing multiple ones of these. So, it seems like you got to upload this stuff periodically. I don't know if you're going to lose the uploads or lose the data like she said. >> If you die or something, >> your research console can quickly assess the potential of a Nemo you caught. Animo with higher potential typically possess superior abilities. You can review this via ano management. >> Press and hold Alt, show the cursor. Press P to open amiibo management. Okay, it's like my Pokedex kind of. You can deploy up to four Neibos at the same time. Select Nemo and drag it to the loadout slot to deploy. Okay, press that to close the amiibo. Okay, so I hit P. Uh, we got helion on a one. We got a fire. We got every type. Is that dark? I'm assuming the the element wheel is similar to other creature catchers. Multiple storage boxes. Okay. How many is this? Uh 25 storage boxes and how many pages per box. Okay. Each each page is a different box. Got it. Okay. That's a good amount, I guess. I imagine that's going to be monetized as well. All right, let's talk to Kim. She can heal amiibo. Twin with Cestius. >> All right, let's talk to this guy again. >> Mr. Lewis, speaking >> of which, do you know the theme of this expedition? >> It's called video game. >> Nicole has already briefed you. Yes. The Prismanlow. The prismanlow is not merely beautiful and rare. It also carries a unique and mysterious power. When Animo are exposed to the Prismanlow, they may gain special forms, even unique powers. Just like my eco, anemo forms are not fixed. Different terrain and climates can change how they look. And of course, the Prismana form is the rarest of all. Keep your eyes open while you're exploring Idol. Discovering the many forms Nemo can take is half the fun. >> So, Dr. Louis, can she join me on official investigations now? >> Join you? Not yet. She's still new here and needs to take things one step at a time to better understand this world. Your first step into Idol? Yes. This simple task should suit you well. Come with me. The hatchinator. Oo. Press V to show the route. Oh, can I auto run this? Oh, we like Black Desert. I like that about Black Desert. >> Wow, that's >> a whole new Don't you dare close your eyes. That frame rate dropped tremendously there. Looks like it went down to 30 for the uh for the uh cut scene, which is not unheard of in current year. Nicole, was that thing that just flew by an Animo, too? It's so big. Huh? An Animoa? >> What did it look like? How big was it? >> Uh, it was really, really big with wings and it flew past in a flash. Don't tell me you didn't see it. It went that way. >> A large winged Nemo? No, I haven't seen anything like that. But the branch did seem to give off an unusual fluctuation not long ago. >> Oh, that's that right. >> That's right. The branch symbol of the picked. >> I was trying to put the window in focus and I clicked an option. >> I loved it the moment I saw it. >> This is important lore. >> What? You saw it too, right? That looks like >> I saw the thing that flew by. >> This would be a real hassle. >> Yeah, you're right. >> That's enough talk. Come this way since you're so >> awesome. Just uh wait a second, Dr. Lewis. I'm okay with going there, but how do I earn its recognition? >> When you arrive there, touch it and you'll understand. >> However, the journey mean you'll have to fend for yourself. >> I'm not trying to this way. >> Is there mounts or do I fish a member? Okay. >> How do I twine? I want a twine. >> Now that Dr. Lewis has spoken, there's nothing I can do for you. Still, I'm familiar with this place. There's a bloom up ahead. Come on. >> Hey, teleporter. I'm assuming that's a good animation. C. New feature map. Oh, we got new things. Uh, analog and courses. Okay. Okay. Now that the bloom has been activated, you can use it to teleport between veins. >> Teleport? Just by touching it? How does it work? >> I don't really know. I guess it has something to do with network. >> I don't know how it works. >> Let's go. Once you see the branch, Dr. Lewis will explain everything. What? >> That's a crystal formed from overflowing vein energy. It holds incredible power. >> Give it to the branch and you'll receive something special. You can find it anywhere. This time we >> Okay. See, do I even run faster? Is this thing? It's kind of cool. You don't have to leave the form to catch stuff. I thought I was going to have to change back to catch it. This area is a bud claw habitat. They like to burrow underground and hide. There are so many amazing and mysterious things in the continent. Use your mobility skills to interact the world and find them out. Make sure I have Pokéballs. I killed it. I didn't want to kill it. Why am I so Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Hold up. This depth of field is getting laughable now. Uh, wait. Frame generation is off. Give me frame gen. Um, dude, the the doof is is crazy. Should I just turn off ambient occlusion? No, it's still there. Like even his fur is like too blurry. weirding me out. Oh, a message from another player. Be careful. Cute animal ahead. Thanks for the warning, buddy. That looming amber is just sitting in the river and the water seems pretty deep. >> Don't worry. Wait, what? Replace what? So when you jump in the water, you automatically switch to a swim. Oh, you do. I see. I wait, did the music just like kick in overdrive? Um, I remember there seeing like a little new text under the amiibo. Incredible edible egg. Now I changed to him. Wow, that's they they each have different abilities. So, if I don't have an amiibo, it tells me that it's new. So, I kind of got the urge to fill a Pokédex. You know what I mean? Uh, go to the branch. This guy's new. Okay. Stop. It happens. Find the right angle to align the pattern. Right. I've got to do this. Got it. Whoa, I'm getting strong. Area collection badge for Nimbus Fields. >> The branch is just up ahead, so I'll leave you here. Let me know how it goes. Stay safe. >> Get him. >> He flew away. What is this cloud? So, I'm thinking I can hatch these eggs. Uh-oh. I don't have any Pokeballs left. >> Yeah, I do. It just didn't work. That was weird. I love that animation so much. That That's really good. I don't know if anybody's done that. Maybe they have, but Oh, man. That's really pleasant on the on the old eye sockets there. This is it. I just need to touch it. touch. I can now teleport back. And we got the badge for Nimbus Field. So, I guess every area is going to have a badge. >> Well, how does it feel to be accepted by the vein and recognized by this land? >> Feels kind of good. They're floating all around me. >> It is proof that the branch has granted you its blessing and this world has welcomed you. Perhaps you've heard people say that Idol and Astra are two entirely different worlds. But many Australians believe this is just an exaggeration regarding the differences in climate and ecology. They assume that adequate gear and supplies are all they need to thrive here. But now you've experienced what truly makes this place different. >> Yeah. Observing an Nemo, twining with them, touching the pulse of the vein. In that moment, it felt like my mind connected with the vein and the whole world looked different. >> This is what it feels like for an outsider to be truly recognized by a new world and become part of it. By offering Lumin Amber, you can help restore more of the branch's energy and deepen your bond with it. >> Will it make me stronger? Of course, those who return energy to the branch. In any case, congrats. >> Welcome to Idol. Your journey officially begins here. >> Tutorial done. >> You remember that huge thing we saw flying overhead, right? I can still sense its presence. It's so warm here by the branch. Maybe that's what drew it here. You know, I could. It's right over there. I can feel some kind of strange ripple in the wind. >> Oh. Hey, touch. Feather of doom. >> Follow the wind toward the place where flowers bloom. >> I'm not jumping. >> That voice just now. Was it that huge creature? Does this feather belong to it? >> Probably. It's huge and it's glowing and so light. Surely this is no ordinary enamel's feather, right? Then there's definitely something special about it. I wish Lunar were here right now. She's so smart. I bet she'd know exactly what to do. I know she's asleep inside the mural, but this is the longest we've ever been apart. I kind of miss her. >> Don't worry. You should be reunited soon enough. >> Dr. How'd you get up here? >> You mean >> Exactly. The Institute has already launched an investigation into those ruins. Professor Boore will personally lead the team with Lita in charge of security. They'll begin very soon. But I'm guessing neither of you wants to just sit around here waiting for the results, right? >> Of course not. >> Yes, that's our theory, too. The investigation is extremely important. Good. Then here's my answer. The process isn't. Of course, if all goes according >> Excellent. Actually, the senior student assigned to guide you ought to be nearby, too. Go find Lana and ask her about it. A little heads up. She loves twining with her research subjects. So finding her might require a little effort on your part. >> Setting out again. That's actually got today's date there. I just noticed that in the little journal. Uh certain Nemo have certain unique path findings such as fly, climb, and swim. Twine with a Nemo or equip your appropriate Nemo in your exploration shot exploration slot to use the uh animal's pathf finding in advance in your adventures. Well, how do you configure that? Climb, fly, swim. Okay. I want to fly as you. Okay. And I want to swim as you. I want to be different. So, I guess um maybe if I sell those I got a a gift. Oh, it's down here. I see. Your stamina runs out, you'll drop out of the sky. So, be careful. I don't see stamina anywhere. Oh, there it is. How do I How do I fall? >> Let's light it up. >> How do I fall? I don't know how I didn't know how to fall. It probably told me I was too focused on other things. I was trying to control. I didn't try to see some new guys over there. Ah, there she is. Bye-bye. Oh, I've heard about you. You're that new student. >> You're a tank head, right? >> Sorry. I >> I see how you got your name. >> Search. I forgot about anyway. >> The depth of field again. I don't like this. Who thought this was a good idea? >> I test you on >> when they're talking to each other. Make everything in the background super blurry. Blurry. >> Little ember pups over there. They're always circling around that flame rough. Ember pups evolve into flame roughs, their gamma stage form, which is also their ultimate goal. All right, now I really need to know. Could you help me find out what they're planning? Don't forget to twine. Twine with an ember pup and you might find out what they're talking about. >> Twine with the ember pup. Which one's the ember pup? That the one I got out now. I don't know these names. Ah, he's ember pup. Okay. So, two twine. Our boss is amazing. I want this Whoa, look over there. See that cube? Resistance is amiibo. the old Spark. >> Ah, that's right. I remember someone telling me about this before. A long, long time ago, some people built big cube like structures like this. They called them sanctums. I think they can repair the vein, but I don't really remember. Anyway, if you pass its trials, you should get something worthwhile. Okay, >> let's give the challenge a try. That sounds fun. All right, let's go in and take a look. >> Second in command. T, if you haven't passed the trial, don't even think about talking to me. That's a dough. Mhm. Let's hope this first one's super easy. I'm still like smashing buttons to fight. Burn the shackles. Twine amiibo. Then tap and hold Q to aim. Release and launch a fireball at the target. Launching fireballs at flamable objects such as wind chest and vines. Ignite them. Uh they will disappear. Okay. All right. We'll start with the door. That's an interesting burn mechanic. Took kind of a while. What's that try on thing mean? Should be able to use explosive barrel head to blast the chest down. Yep. and then touch. Hey, it's the thing. I got candy. Piece of candy. Easy trial. Easy challenge. Nice. Nice loading bar. >> This sanctum is incredible. I can feel the vein energy flowing again. And those Ember Pup fighting moves were really something. Looks like the Ember Pup family has guarded this place for generations. Whoa, look over there. That Ember Flint transformed. Here you can check the animal's evolution requirements. Needs to level up before it can meet the requirements to evolve. I think I used everything evolve. This is something I wish Pal had. It didn't. It's like the one thing. Oh, what the We ain't done yet, boy. Okay, he's officially my strongest. I just used all my stuff on him. I should do that on everybody, huh? I don't know who else is good though. >> The assessment isn't over here. Hey, the iPhone blink. >> Sorry, senior Lana. I was chasing it. Anyway, they were trying to learn how to evolve into plane routes. So, you can Oh, that's >> Listen up. The boss of the nimbies around here. A turbo is right next to me. Oh, and you can catch some Animo on your way here, too. Let's see. Try catching a flutter and an iris. >> Flutterm. Iris. Flutter. Wait. Oh, you can switch while you're switched. Flutterm Iris. Assuming you or Flutter or whatever. All right. They're not taking any damage. Dude, I thought you were strong. What's going on? All right. Floating them. Or you can just hold down the button. Oh, I don't know me own strength. Use flamer rough for better results. Thanks for the tip. Ah, I didn't get an iris. Or did I? Did I get an iris? I did. Okay. I thought I think I already got an iris earlier. Oh, what's this piece of candy? >> Oh, you can rest. Oh, there's all the people here. There's pay to win. Gotcha. >> Ba ba black sheep. >> You already got a flame rock. That was fast. Quick, hide here before it notices us. See that? That's a turbo. It's the biggest, widest, fluffiest member of the Nimi family. Widest fluffiest. You >> already earned the sky pasture badge. That was fast. Then it's time for the final assessment. Take it down. But for safety sake, I need to explain a few more things. You may have a flame rough. It might look soft and fluffy, but its temper is a lot. That's because even though flame roughs and ember pups love chasing nimies around. So pop quiz. Turbo's a wind type. Animo. What element should you use to take it on? >> Easy. Just use me. Exactly. Right. Still, even with an elemental advantage >> counters, where do I see this? >> If your level is too low, the fight will be much harder. Leveling up your You've got this. >> Oh, I almost This Annipod Ultra is more powerful than a common antipod. It can even if you actually manage to defeat it, you might as well try that ultra ball. All right. How do I change acquire combat stat boost, which I've already done. I've already done it. Okay. So, um, what's a tumbler? Okay, I didn't switch it, I don't think. What are you doing? God dang it. It locked onto him. Uh, lur sticking to two so it becomes heavy and crashes down. Lure it by sticking to two. Two nimbus to it. What? Lure it into sticking into two Nimbus so it becomes too Oh, so it has to hit one of these guys. I see. Now it's sticking to these guys. There we go. I want to know how low I need to get it. Hit me again. Cannot catch. Get close the c what? Oh, you can catch it after you kill it. That's cool. I was confused. I was trying to catch it while I was low. >> Even a turbo that strong was no match for you, >> Dr. Lewis. Lana, >> you impressed Lana and even earned yourself a badge. You've come such a long way in so little time. Congratulations, freshman. You've passed the guidance course and proven yourself commendably. Starting today, you are officially a student of the Polaris Institute. You'll now represent Astra in the expedition team on a brand new journey across Idol. Congratulations. May you always carry hope and passion in your heart and shine like the stars. >> Thank you, instructor. I'll keep working hard. >> Another badge. >> Unlock talent. Here we go.

Pro Catcher unlocks anime anapot pro in a shop. What is that? I do want this though. I want more XP. I don't know what that is. I'll come back to this. >> Um, >> now that you're officially a student, it's time to start your real training. >> Real training, you said? >> Of course. What? >> Of course. Given how quickly you're I've already put together an elite training plan made just for you. It's on your terminal now. Go ahead and take the right training will help you grow and keep explore this beautiful. I'm advanced man. Hold alt to show the cursor. Press F3 to open uh advanced training. Oh, that's pretty.

Here is the treadmill. elite training points and you get flower girl >> instructor. Now that I'm an official student, can I go see Lunara? >> Of course you can, but you'll have to wait a few days. You blazed through that assessment so fast that things aren't ready on that end yet. Once they're ready to begin over there, I'll let you know. Oh, instructor. Earlier I uh heard a certain phrase near Nimbus Fields. It was go where flowers bloom. >> Oh, then you must have met someone from Bloomville. The place where flowers bloom, the land blessed by flowers and butterfly shadows, the land of flowing fragrance. >> Those are all the names they used to describe their home. It was also one of the first settlements in Idol to establish ties with Astra. They regularly send envoys to trade with our students stationed at Nimus Fields. >> Right on Q. See that girl coming this way? She must be this year's Bloomville envoy. >> Hey, Bloomville. Dia, >> good day. You must friends from Astra. Yes, I'm Dia from Bloomville. People from Astra have a different scent for my Dillians. A perfumer can tell right away. I'm here on behalf of Bloomville to meet our friends from Astra and pick up the supplies we ordered. Indeed. I thought you'd be arriving around now. Everything's set at the outpost, so head over whenever you're ready. Oh, and this new student of mine has a few questions about Bloomville, if you don't mind. >> Oh, yeah. Have you heard that phrase? >> We did go through some >> Bloomville. Got it. Bloom Festival. Yeah, >> that's one of the training tasks. I had a feeling you were going to tell me about that. I am welcome. >> Oh, by the way, I better hurry. Man, that depth of field is terrible. There's just random blur splotches everywhere. I hate that. Look at this. Look at her hair. That's Lady Ireelia. >> It didn't recover. Every 10 years, Bloomville holds a ceremony to honor. >> I'm going to turn off DSS. DLSS and see if that >> will attend the causing it. >> Don't worry. >> Got it. Leave it to me. >> I don't think it is. I don't think DLSS is causing it, but um I am going to check anyway. >> Such a beautiful and rare event. >> Hey, the cash shop. Hold on. >> Actually appear. I remember $5 monthly passing some materials. >> This bloom festival seems to >> reduce hash time by two hours. Doubles primige cap. Don't know what that is yet. Oh, ain't you?

Log in for three total days to claim all rewards. Make a purchase of any amount to activate the event. That's a nice suit. Nice green. Was this summer? Uh, okay. There's some more stuff at the bottom. Mountain Pass pack. Um, corner shop. I don't know what this is. Open all. Okay. I don't see anything free yet. I know these freeto play games have like free stuff that you claim every day, but I haven't seen it yet. Analog. We got the little exclamation points that I got to claim all rewards. So, it looks like each ember, I'm sorry, each anemo has some goals and you get rewards from each defeat. Okay, so this is where defeating multiple come into play. Catch multiple. catch 10 of each and you get 10 of this currency when by doing that. Okay, it's good to know. I like this UI. Family mode, form mode. Interesting. Okay, we got something for you planes. Submit report. Oh, that's right. I have to turn stuff in. What is research console? There we go. Upload animal report. All my catches. Looks like this identifies stuff for you as well cuz I I know most times if you don't get it analyzed, it has question marks as his name and stuff. This gives you a lot of stuff. A lot of this currency. Pretty soon I'll learn the names of these things. All right, it's a good stopping point. Episode two of my Animo journey. We're learning more and more about the game. We unlocked the cash shop and uh we got the advanced elite training stuff. We c we caught our first ultra, I think they're called big boys. And we're starting to see more people. So, we're breaking out of the of the tutorial phase of the game. So, I'll see you on the next one. Take care.
