    I failed to sell my friend on Recettear. I wonder...do I really have no talent?...

    Your hype was too high, you needed to drop down to around 110%

    Unless your friend was a little girl, in which case you would need around 106% for at least a Near Pin.

    Wow, this is quite the addictive game. About 3 weeks or so in, I've got 2 adventurers over LV10, and I just finished the first 5 floors of the first dungeon after the demo. Merchant LV is in the low teens. Not entirely sure how I'm going to come up with enough money for the bill at the end of the week, but hopefully some lucky shopping & some treasure from the new dungeon will fix that.

    And one round through the demo I really pushed adventuring...got Louie to floor 10 of the Jade Way, and goddamn that boss was scary. Protip: there is a trick to it. The trick to it is not "back attack".

    Yeah, when you're a few thousand short on Termesday suddenly it's EVERYTHING MUST GO, busting deals like everyone's a little girl.

    I can never find buyers for any treasures. Most of my living is in books and food.

    At first I was skeptical of this game's concept, then I recalled that I'd wanted to do EXACTLY this back when UO was fresh and new.

    I downloaded the demo.

    Love it, good times.

    I didn't find him that scary, just make sure you kill the red mushrooms and then attack him after he eats the poison ones.

    Man, I put out a book in the front shelf and one inside for like 10 selling times straight and no one even offered to buy it. I think I had to sell it back to the guildmaster to make the 10k payment.

    Good point, it is a bit scary til you figure that out. Can't wait til this comes out and get more dungeons.

    All I know is that every time I try to go big-ticket items like armor and treasure, I end up with three old men and Louie poking around and not buying anything. Every time I go food/book/clothes, I'm swamped with housewives and little girls clamoring for the latest dragon adventure.

    Unless someone will suffer from the telling, it's not a pun worth telling. After all, "pun" is the root of "punishment."

    Just played through this. Ended with about 6000 left after payment. Not bad. I'm not completely sold on the actual dungeon stuff yet, but that may just be Louie, I guess.
