and this is why if you’re using skills system you need to make sure you know what you’re doing instead of throwing skills on willy-nilly

I don’t wanna throw shade at the person who made the hack, but the hack is supposed to be a rebalance of SS and like, to their credit, the game sure is a lot harder and does some neat things to make encounters more difficult, so I feel like some things like this are at least a little fair.

The main problem here is that all of the maps are still the same so the same bad encounters are still bad encounters, now they’re just not as brainless

You said in a previous post that you're not sure where Innes' Japanese name (Heanius) comes from. Is it possible that this is a corruption of Aeneas, one of the heroes of the Trojan War? There's precedent for this, seeing as Aias is a corruption of Ajax.

While I can’t discount your theory, Aias is a legitimate name (Aias is from Ancient Greek, Ajax is the Roman version of it), as opposed to Heanius which came out of IntSys’ ass (as far as we’re aware). Aias’ name in Japanese (アイアス) is spelled the same way it’s translated as in Japanese translations of the Iliad.

A few Japanese translations for Aeneas already exist, but they’re all roughly around the lines of アイネアス (Aineasu) as opposed to Innes’ ヒーニアス (Hīniasu).
