The one part that really gets me is talking to Brad’s grandpa. He’s responsible for showing Brad how to conduct his pain into power. He rescued Brad from Marty as best he could. He gave him a life where he could actually fight back against his tormentors. He’s directly responsible for raising the man who killed half of Olathe. But despite everything, he failed Brad as much as Marty did. He never showed Brad how to actually heal from his pain, only how to use it as a weapon to achieve “greatness”. He may have been as awful to Marty as Marty was to his kids, just to teach him pain. And he never rescued Lisa, even as she suffered as Brad did. When you look at it, you really see how Brad was failed by every parent figure in his life, just as he failed Buddy.

If we analize Martin, his attitude and insecurities may very well stem from him never reaching the "greatness" his father wanted from him. the reason he abuses both Brad and Lisa is, as he says, to make them stronger and make them grow fast so that the world will not hurt them. is a corrupted version of how Brad's grandad sees trauma and pain. However, Marty is also venting the powerlessness he felt during his childhood, using "techniques" that made him stronger against his father, which is drinking and being overall violent. Don't get me wrong, Marty is an evil monster, but Marty's dad created him, and considering how Brad's granpa wouldn't accept girls in his dojo, probably felt the same way of men acting "like girls". even his speech about making someone stronger and breaking them makes me think he would verbally abuse Martin in the same way Martin verbally abused Brad, only Martin took a step further fuelled by his insecurities towards his dad.

In all fairness I don't think he knew about all of the fucked up shit Marty did to Brad. He probably just saw Marty as a burnout alcoholic loser neglecting his kids.

I feel like there's something supernatural going on with Joy now. Between the crow-Bernard thing being named "Bernard" even though Brad absolutely does not know that's Bernard and the Marty manifestation morphing into something that looks completely alien when it performs that psyche attack leads me to believe that whatever Joy is doing to people is literally causing sentient manifestations of trauma to exist within their minds. Maybe Yado stumbled onto some kind of psychic power that he infused into the Joy drug, who knows. It makes sense to me at least, especially with how we literally see the manifestations of trauma in Buddy and Brad's minds act as if they're their own independent entity. I wouldn't say it's too far-fetched, considering this is a world where a single event can wipe out half, and only half, of the human population, and where you can summon tangible fireballs with your emotions. After some thought, I'm giving further credence to this. The additional content in the Joyful adds additional dialogue when Buzzo confesses that Brad was a good person to Buddy before he mutates. The additional dialogue has Buddy confronting Buzzo about Lisa. He's utterly stunned and shocked she even knows, and is confused how Buddy can "hear her". He even starts begging Lisa to talk to him again. I believe Buzzo, like Brad, had a sentient manifestation of trauma in his mind. For Brad, it was Marty.. for Bernard, it was Lisa. Buddy even mentions how Buzzo is masking his weakness by blaming Lisa, and as an observer, we can say she's right. Brad, despite being tormented by joy-influenced delusions of weaponized trauma inside his own head still fought to make good choices. He tried to be a good person. Bernard/Buzzo is a grim representation of what could have happened to Brad if he gave in to the trauma and let it control him. Buzzo even says Lisa dragged him in to the dark when he should have been her light. He isnt talking about Lisa, the girl, but about the living manifestation of trauma in his own head that takes Lisa's form. In the end, that's why Buddy says neither her or Brad could possibly blame him for what he did to Olathe. It was Yado and always was Yado using him because he wasn't strong enough to resist the Joy and its influences. Fittingly, Yado is killed unceremoniously. He deserved as much.

Buzzo is such a good foil to Brad. Both run with big groups of people, both hurt those people to get closer to their end goal, but the major difference is this. Brad mostly internalized his trauma and weaponizes it in the forms of fireball, while Buzzo lashed out at those who followed him. Brad tried to seek redemption by quitting Joy and raising Buddy while Buzzo kept doing it despite knowing the horrible monster it would turn himself into.

I love how unapologetically hesitant and TEDIOUS some of these segments get. It’s kind of a weird thing to appreciate, I guess, but it’s an amazing representation of the extent of Brad’s trauma. It’s not easy to get over abuse. It’s not easy to just forget about the past and move on. It requires immense willpower just to confront that trauma, let alone to conquer it. Even when given proper tools to cope, like counseling or a circle of caring friends to fall back on, trauma is something that you have to deal with yourself. There’s never an easy way out, and this sequence reflects it perfectly.

It's interesting to see that this superboss is a sort of dramatic parallel to Lisa's final fight. First, Brad fights the shadows of his party (similarly to the final "friends fight" sequence, albeit significantly more difficult). Then, he battles his enemy's minions (similarly to how Brad must decimate Rando's army before he can face Rando himself). Finally, he must face the last enemy in his way and desperately attempt to save a young girl (who, in both fights, is an ever-present reminder of an agonizing past). The difference? Here, Brad isn't alone fighting a hopeless battle that cannot be won. His friends stand beside him. The one person in the world who truly hurt him the most stands before him. Brad has everything to lose and everything to gain. In his own joy-fueled nightmare, Brad imagines his hopeless ordeal as the one thing he could only ever dream of: freedom from the subsuming guilt that tears at him with every step he takes towards his final battle. It's the very culmination of everything his journey stands for, but told in a valiant light: to sail across the sea, defeat his enemy in a faraway land, and free the girl he could not save earlier. It's an impossible fight, but with everyone he's ever trusted by his side, he just might win it. And he does. Of course, as Marty's head would be more than happy to remind him, it's not that easy. His friends are torn to shreds by his own hand; once again, in his efforts to find closure, Brad's joy addiction has resulted in him brutalizing those he cares about most. I can only wonder if this battle is what Brad truly sees as his mutating mind slowly succumbs to joy while fighting Rando.

Technically it’s never said that their mom was still around, only that Brad and Lisa went through her things. She probably left some stuff behind when she left the family. But on that note, this content DOES confirm that Mrs. Armstrong indeed left Marty. In fact, it retcons the secret ending of The First, which says that she outright died. *EDIT:* Welp, nevermind, the new epilogue for The Joyful says Mrs. Armstrong was around well into Lisa’s childhood. Which contradicts the intro for The Painful and throws all of Marty’s characterization out the window. That’s just great. 🤦♂️

My memory on LISA is fuzzy, so I could be missing or misinterpreting something, but one of the final segments, where Brad climbs a rope at mach speed is... It hurts, man. I read it as him frantically clawing his way along that rope, hoping to get to its start, and cut it. Before Lisa does that terrible thing, before he loses her forever. He already fucked up badly by not being strong enough, by not standing up to his Father, by not getting her to come along with him and his Grandfather, and now she's dead, and he blames himself for it for the rest of his life. I can vividly imagine him grinding his hand into blood, as he climbs, looking up into the dark sky and back to the earth, hoping to see that familiar glimmer of dirty white, that tired pale face with red lips. That's his baby sister. He was supposed to take care of her. And look where it's gotten them both. It's heartbreaking.

Did this fight in pain mode with no infinite exp grinding from the wrestling ring, no joy, armless Brad, no save points remaining, and had my best party members get wiped out first go around. It took four hours, and was exhausting. But IMO still worth it. One of the coolest things to come out of the entire franchise, and absolutely worth experiencing firsthand. Just... go in at level 40+, full arm Brad, and maxed out gear (I at least had that lol) for your own sake. Also huge tip that saved my ass: Marty doesn't consume party members until after a certain number of turns. So the fight's actually really easy if you exploit that and just escape after wailing on him for like six turns, repeat until death. Just... very long.

I beat it, and yeah, characters who attack all enemies like Shocklord and Rooster felt really damn good to use.. Also, buckets' damage output for a single target was pretty good as well. It definitely matched if not slightly surpassed an armless Brad spamming Fireball 4s. I was hoping more though once you finish the dream and go on the boat, the interaction between Brad, Marty, and Buddy would have ended up different considering Brad just had the worst "nightmare" he's ever had..

This video had gotten into my recommended and showed me where the location of this fight is, I went back too my first save and went into this fight blind. He killed Olan, Birdie, and Mad Dog, my three best party members at the time (because I killed some good ones/I missed some good ones). Once I woke up I saved OVER my first save because I thought "it was just a dream their not actually dead." I went too a red gang poster too switch party members just too realize that their gone forever. Im starting a new save file tomorrow, im going to get all the party members in the game, as much EXP and items as I can get, and learn what every, single, party member, does. Im sad and I have a skill issue. Edit: I beat it, I also got every party member in one run as a bonus.

IF you wanna know how to easily beat this fight: Have a party of Carp, someone able to inflict Pissed (I used Nern because he can also regen SP) and someone that deals good AoE damage (I used Shocklord) or extremely high single target damage (preferably Special damage). Deal with phases 1 and 2 (Blood Shadows and Spider Thralls) accordingly depeding on their cycle (In cycle 1 just spam AoE damage). I beat this boss second try so idk how bad it gets in further cycles, but just get through them. Once you face against Marty, continuously get him Pissed and defeat the Spider Sacs using Carp's Deep Poison Mist if you want, although it doesn't matter afaik. Then, while NEVER FAILING TO GET MARTY PISSED. Spam Carp's Wrist Slash on Marty, that way even if it hits you it'll do a lot less damage and be maneageable. You can also get the Spider Sacs Pissed if you want for some reason (maybe pray they'll hit Marty?) Congratulations, you just made this fight a lot easier. You're now free to spam you most powerful attacks on Marty until he dies. Be sure that your party member that induces Pissed NEVER runs out of SP/TP, since giving Marty one turn can be fatal. Also, this does not prevent Marty from using Psyche Sap, there's just no way around that, so deal with him as soon as possible!

I ended up with the same kind of tactic after having quite a few failures in trying to find a status that worked on 'em until i found pissed. Ended up with nern and garth doubling up on their moves that caused pissed just to make sure and kind of just used garth to use the attack up buff on brad and fardy up who was just there to make the first two fights a little easier to get through. Nern's finger beam was also a good source of consistent damage. The Carp thing's a good idea, probably would have replaced fardy because while fardy does good damage sometimes, it was random. Just kinda thought to bring fardy as most of my other aoe characters got devoured and I still wanted to get through the first two encounters with some ease.

i ended up devising a strategy of using brad garth, terry, and birdie to make marty pissed at the start, then use a lucrative tea so birdie can gasoline spit, and have terry hype himself up. on the next turn, garth proceeds to buff terry while birdie makes him drunk giving him 100% crit rate, letting hottest dance do about 4000-6000 damage when getting the attack buffs plus oiled up marty. to avoid having my party members dying, i ran away when pissed wore off, and on the second wave, id use terry fardy and shocklord to clear an easy path to bring back in garth and birdie. those two can do just enough damage when hyped up by terry to destroy all the spider sacs should you crit with truck slam 1 and big shock. this happened and it allowed me to bypass the second wave of the fight with the marty spiders and tricky rick and cut down like an hour lol

It's weird to me that people complain that your party members are lost permamently after this fight like it even matters. You literally need all 4 boat parts to even start this fight, by the time you have those parts there aren't even any notable opponents left to fight unless you missed one or two, the only thing i can see happening is someone fighting this boss before satan which i wouldn't even reccomend because you'd want mikes belt buckle for this fight make it a lot easier on you. Every party member, alive or dead might as well not exist after this fight as you have no more use for them.

The flower petals you get when a party member dies have a low chance to do 20,000 damage to him, has a chance to make the fight a bit more reasonable. I only learned this like 2/3 of the way through, although it made my climb a bit less satisfying when I got two in a row around 30,000 hp Edit: Nevermind, I didn't realize you beat it before this was a thing, amazing job!
@Big_Iron_Tomkus
Жыл бұрын
Managed to do this without losing anyone. Bring Nern and Carp. He's not immune to pissed. Nern's dirty insult will keep him pissed and prevent him from using the consume move. He will however get very strong crits that can hit you, this is where Carp comes in. His Wrist Slash move will cut his atk and make his crits hit considerably weaker, never once did he one hit kill me after that. You'll be missing out on perhaps a faster, more optimized way of dealing damage so the fight will no doubt take longer(especially since you'll be missing out on the new flower petal item from lost party members that deals 18k damage), but if you really care about all your party members, this'll keep 'em safe. Be careful though, you HAVE to keep that pissed status on him. If you miss a beat and give him a turn he can and will use that consume move multiple times a turn. One attempt i slipped up and pissed ended, he used the consume move twice side by side, as if to make up for lost opportunities to use it. Which leads me to believe it's based on either amount of turns taken, or amount of health lost. Oh yeah, and Carp's bleed and poison affects the spider sacs, so even doing 0 damage while calcified, they just bled and got poisoned to death.

To be fair, we only know him through Brad/Lisa's eyes. Buddy AND Brad caused lots of deaths, and are objectively worse human beings than a shitty father, but we forgive them because we know their backstory. Marty doesn't have that privilege, so it's really easy for us to judge him despite the fact the only time he genuinely appears on-screen he's trying to fix his shit.

Does anyone else have a glitch where they lose ALL of their Joy before fighting Marty? I kept noticing I didn't have any; At first I thought you lost it if you Surrendered, then when I reloaded a save and went through the entire dream sequence TWICE and noticed I didn't have any first during the boss fight proper. Then, on the third run through, while checking my inventory obsessively, It seems I lost it all after the talk with Joy Marty in Brad's room. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Is it a glitch or is this intentional? EDIT: Fourth run it now seems I lost it in LISA's room after taking a step or two in.

Some interesting stuff I and my friends noticed: It seems there are fewer "joy farmers" in your video than my friend's playthrough. However, my OTHER friend took very little joy and saw about as many "joy farmers" as are in this video. My friend also saw a Joy-Farmer-esque Terry in the location at 4:08. I'm not sure what the prerequisite for this is, but presumably it didn't show up due to you not having Terry in your party? I'm very curious as to what other changes there are and could be depending on how you play. EDIT: There's also a Joy-Farmer-esque Olan that my friend saw after seeing his campfire events, and allegedly one of Mad Dog. They might be related to the campfire events, then. Not sure how many there would be in that case.
@TehDogge
Жыл бұрын
I do think it has to do with campfire events, since I'm pretty sure it's Queen laying next to brads house at 3:48, which is one of the campfire events I wound up getting in my playthrough. I didn't see the Terry campfire cutscene (since he got obliterated by Wally), nor did I see the Olan event despite having him in my party for the entire playthrough (though IIRC eating joy is one of the prerequisites for that one), which would explain their absence. It's a shame that there's no Nern joy farmer around after having suffered through his campfire monologue, but hey, maybe that's his punishment for not being concise. ;p

After seeing the Joyful ending, I've realized that most of the "Joy Farmers" are actually manifestations of Dusty/Rando. There's a scene in the secret Joyful ending where you talk to Dusty's severed face, and it looks identical to the "faces" on the "Joy Farmer."
