i found the monk and now i have to go north to find the demon, i have no phial (mp) item left and from some topics i read you can not buy supply if you go forwards to the temple and you have hard battles...
my question is - can i continue without supply or should i go back through rocky path and buy new supply and than come back to the cave?

Ah well it depends how you like to play.
If you do come back to the Monastery, do it BEFORE you actually recruit Hirado, because otherwise it wont be possible anymore.
If you don't, you can use the various healing spots to make sure to progress: there is one in Hirado's Cave, and two at the entrance of the Ancient Temple.

Hope this helps! +::Thumbup

it helps, thank you, but i have notice that in most of your games you dont give much attantion to supply. i think it is very important to have supply man or shop in a lot of spots - especially in logn way like this case - because some time people come to a supply place and have no money...so they can buy in next stop. i thing the game should be comfortable with such usefull items as mp and hp, in case they want to fight a lot. i myself use a lot of saving to keep my suplly and aviod fighting... because even if you decide to escape the first blow take some of your hp.
btw - i notice that marine come back to life but not alwayes with full hp. when she come with hp and when she is not?
thanks for 2 answers...

Well I like the games to be challenging..... it's not that I dont pay attention as I gauge really every single aspect of my games, but I've always been attracted by challenge.... maybe I should change this? +::O_o

Hmmmm I'm not sure - can you tell me when exactly it happens?

My first goal is always to stock up on supplies. I try to max them out later in the game...just in case. You
just never know. And I've become more careful about selling things. I've made the mistake of selling things I needed for quests, and that hurts! :)

it is not challenge to fight without suplly... because if you have only resting points you can not choose
i think may be u can put a question to vote - do you want more suplly shopes (or people) in the game?
and than decide.

yes maybe i could open it and see
but to me it's challenge in the way you have to be careful how you use your characters' magic.
regardless i think the mode "very easy" pretty much solves the problem - which mode are you playing in?

thank you +:oops:

i like to think making mistakes is part of the gaming experience and that things are boring if all is always explained and hand-guided.
this is my own view of games
and the perfect game should only be attempted after 2-3 playthroughs.

1. I am playing normal mode since i played every game you have.
2. although i enjoy playing the game i like more games with puzzles like use to be point and click games - my favorite game ever was "the miracle warriers" in sega of the 80'.
3. from my expirience in palying the game i become angry if i am in a place and have to much supply because than i know i have to go to an earlier save.. do i think you need to take care of ehough money and supply. if i have supply i can handle everything and everyone. (i reaping myself here)...
