It's okay, Max. Sometimes when I work on Karsu's dungeons, I go back to our IM and he's made the =P similie about twenty times.

Epic Monster Dungeon Explore 2! was VX 1.5. People who have played both VX1 and VX1.5 will be nicely rewarded story-wise in VX2.
The game is kind of in the works, in that I've expanded the database from the trial-made original and fixed some ugly script issues, as well as replaced the Japanese text. Little progress on gameplay has been made since I'm working on much, much better projects at the moment. =P

I've been playing The World Ends With You recently, which has a very interesting implementation of difficulty setting:
...
Obviously this wouldn't work for every game, but it's certainly an unconventional system with promise.
Shrew Wave. Normal mode. .09% Egg Bomb drop. :< I did four-reduction battles at, like, L20 (I was L53ish) for SO LONG getting that ksnvdnsaoangjng drop when I all wanted to do was just advance to Hard that day. :< :< :< :< :< :< :< But hey, at least it owned Mrs. I-Like-To-Dash-Around Yashiro, who I fought on hard while Beat was wearing a skirt that gave him +2 combo panels. Do you know how difficult it is to earn Beat's fusion stars while dealing with an insane Yashiro blinking constantly who won't let you get through the six-seven arrows before triggering the cards?.
Yeah, I totally stole this for my current project, though. I have EDGELESS mode which is 80% monster stats (except 60% HP), with ~70% money/loot% from monsters, less EXP from bosses, and less items/money in chests. There's NORMAL mode. From there you have DIFFICULT and PAINFUL which are about 130% stronger and 200% stronger monsters, but Painful has a 400% drop rate increase. =D In a linear game with only a set number of battles + a few side-battles, you're better off to try harder difficulties, but the game is going to be balanced for Normal. Oh, higher difficulties REALLY increase the amount of stuff in chests, so yeah. Risk/reward!
I also have Story Mode and Phylomortician options; Story Mode is like ENEMIES DIE IN ONE HIT mode with ridiculous EXP/money/Drop rates, but chests are the same as Easy mode. Phylomortician is the opposite--stats are about the same as Painful mode, but the EXP/money/Drop rate is super-low. Some chests might simply not appear on Phylomortician mode. =D
I think I'm going to make shops change based on your difficulty, not sure. Since you can change the difficulty at any time, my cheater-proof method is this: the game saves your difficulty in a new variable whenever you win a battle, and uses the second variable when doling out chest rewards and whatnot. Agree/disagree?
