They claim a 25kwh capacity but only if you pair with their Smart Gas Generator. Don’t let the EcoFlow marketing fool you though. ![]() The EcoFlow is still a top buy if the “Ecosystem”, native 240v 3000w AC charging, or the spinning countdown clock on the color screen win you over. ![]() Also the extra batteries are significantly more expensive than the Bluetti offering per watt hour. Unfortunately, hooking up the Smart Gas Generator requires using up one of the only two battery ports leaving a dead battery (if you have two) unable to be charged until the other is disconnected. Both offer EV charging accessories and an interface to hookup to your home wiring. When two units are combined with the Double Voltage Hub accessory, the output doubles to a whopping 7200w! EcoFlow’s “Ecosystem” includes accessories that Bluetti does not offer such as a Smart Gas Generator ($1399), a 400w solar tracker ($2699), and a hardwired remote control ($99).

That exposes one of the core flaws of Ephemeral Fantasia it does wrong everything that Majora's Mask did right. Unfortunately, like almost everything else in the game, it's all timed, so if you screw up you have to wait for the next week before you can try it again. There are a number of characters that you can have join your group, and the methods to gain them range from the relatively simple (find them at a place and time, do some basic tasks) to the complex. Xelpherpolis is the Bad Guy, and you've got to stop him before he does Evil Things to the people of Pandule. Soon enough you'll discover the core conceit of the game, a time loop that keeps playing the same five days over and over again. Once you meet them, you can tell that there's something wrong going on Loreille is much colder than you'd think a bride-to-be would be. A man named Xelpherpolis (where do they get these names?) invites Mouse to the island to play music for his upcoming wedding to the Princess Loreille. The storyline is actually rather intriguing. Add in an atrocious mapping system which requires you to find pieces of the map and you have yourself a hindrance to the gaming experience from the start. The city is one huge maze, which makes exploration frustrating, not to mention trying to make appointments on time wandering around the world map can be an aggravating experience. Indeed, much of the game takes place in the center city, which sprawls across most of the island. The game takes place on the island of Pandule, a smallish plot of land that may remind you of any fantasy seaside resort. It's hard to get into character when you're never really sure just what's going on with them. Unfortunately, while the sorts of things that Crono tended to say were simple enough to divine from his actions, Mouse is an attempt at a more complex hero, and his silent status only makes it that much more frustrating. He also happens to have a talking lute named Pattimo, which basically provides us with a voice for the main character, as Mouse is as mute as Crono. The few glimmers of light that you'll find scattered around the title don't make up for its core flaws, which is a shame, because you can definitely catch a glimpse of just what EP could have been.ĮP casts you in the role of Mouse, a world-renowned musician who also happens to be a master thief. That doesn't keep Ephemeral Fantasia from being an almost universally unenjoyable game. I can even appreciate it the concept of melding a free-roaming world with traditional RPG elements is intriguing, and should definitely be explored more in the future. I can see where Konami was going with Ephemeral Fantasia. I'd comment on the voice acting, but there isn't any considering the translation, though, that may be a good thing. The sound effects are strictly standard RPG fare, with clangs and booms and swirly-whirls that will do absolutely nothing for you. Of course, the audio quality depends quite a bit on your skill as a lutist, so be forewarned. A notable exception to the mediocre music is the guitar solos that you get to play yourself, which range from good to fantastic. The pumped-up battle theme is nice enough, but it doesn't have quite the same amount of pull as many other themes from the genre. The tunes you'll hear while you wander around are passable, but they're not particularly memorable. Add to all of this a bad case of both jaggies and polygonal seams and you've got a game that, while you can see the potential, never really gets off the ground in the visuals department. And even Mouse and crew look a little strange, as their facial textures never seem to be quite right. The character models fare slightly better, but the enemies are oftentimes cartoonish in their simplicity. The world is blocky and nondescript, with muddy textures and a camera that takes way too long to pan around the screen. I'm not entirely sure just where Ephemeral Fantasia's graphical design got started, but it's fairly evident that it wasn't on the PS2. 1/1/2024 0 Comments I love tim tams![]() They smelled like dark chocolate - they smelled just like Tee Vee shapes actually. It's that orgasm taste of home, you know! :-)Īnyway, so how do these dark chocolate chilli Tim Tams taste? Well, I opened the packet and lifted on to my nose. This is why expat Aussies in the UK and American spend a week's salary on hunting down and buying imported packets of Tim Tams. It's really something you must try, or at least watch an Aussie friend do and laugh at their hunched posture with ecstatic smiles on their faces. You will then experience a chocolate orgasm in your mouth! This is fact. It will explode in a chocolately, biscuity mess in your mouth. The hot liquid has been sucked up through the crispy biscuit and soft filling into your mouth, softening and melting the biscuit and chocolate on the way. ![]() IMMEDIATELY gather it up into your mouth before it starts to disintegrate. You'll notice the biscuit start to soften this is your cue. Suck slowly - about 3 sucks should do it. Be careful! Don't do it while your liquid is still at boiling point or you'll boil your lips off and drop your Tim Tam in your liquid, and that would be a shame. It's just wrong, ok?!) you slowly start sucking. Now, with your lips locked around one bitten corner, and the other bitten corner suspended in your hot liquid (and it MUST be hot, otherwise this doesn't work properly - sorry to all you cold Milo afficionados. Tim Tam poised for slamming above a nice, hot cup of tea. See below:Īnd you take your Tim Tam to your cup of hot liquid (say, a nice, hot cup of tea.*), dunk one bitten corner in, and take your lips to the top corner (where you've bitten off the edge): What you do is you take your Tim Tam (any type, but not the chewy caramel ones - they don't work) and take a small bite from each opposing corner. This is a very famous and very Australian way of having a Chocolate Orgasm - any passing Australian you happen to flag down off the street would easily and enthuasiastically demostrate this skill to you. The most famous way Aussies will use these biscuits is as a straw for hot liquids - aka The Tim Tam Slam. Two crispy wafers, sandwiched with a creamy chocolate filling and coated in thick chocolate.īefore you start emailing me in excitement, the odd looking circle on the top of the biscuit is where it was pressed against the plastic, not some eerie crop circle or Virgin Mary appearance, ok?! And yes, they are as good as the Aussies say they are. These are the chocolate biscuits Aussie expats around the world will go into raptures about, if you give them half a chance. More so than Iced Vovos, more so Vee Shapes or Milk Arrowroots ( bleah). Tim Tams are the MOST famous Australian biscuit. *WAIT* Ohmygawd! Chilli?!?!?!?! Chilli DARK chocolate?!!! Chilli dark chocolate TIM TAMS?!!! Evidentally jumping on the whole chocolate chilli bandwagon here, but hey - that's a combination I like!Īnd yes, I was in 7/11 at the time, so I paid through the nose for this packet. So, hmmmmmm, what's this new way they're trying to reinvent the wheel? The chewy caramel ones aren't worth it, and the Tia Maria flavoured ones (yes, we have alcoholic flavoured biscuits) are a bit overhyped and overrated. You always get fewer biscuits in the special flavour packets anyway - 9 instead of 11. Well, apart from the dark chocolate ones. I always think the original Tim Tams are the best. With BONUS illustrated instructions on how to perform a "Tim Tam Slam"!Ī new Tim Tam flavour? Meh. |
