Why were the upgrades in this game so poorly handled?

THE RALLY

Don't quote me on this, but I think that none of the original team who made the first Alundra worked on this.

I remember the early boss fights taking forever because they could kill you in a few hits and they had loads of health.

It was probably an unrelated project called "クロックワーク の Bullshit" or something like that at some point and they just slapped the Alundra brand on it in the last stretch before release

Yeah, this is one of the most blatant mis-uses of an IP i've seen. Got nothing to do with original Alundra.

I don't remember having to do any of this. I do however remember this bullshit from the first game:

- having a missable falcon that you literally had a split second time to get
- a fucking random roulette
- the staff you get for all the bullshit is a "I WIN" button
- if you kill yourself like 30 times in a row you get the strongest sword, which is otherwise unavailable

I consider the sword a darwin award for the most hopeless shitlords.
"Wow this guy sucks. Let's give him a fighting chance:"

What pissed me off is that I never found the permit for the casino, and when I realized it it was too late because the village had burnt and I couldn't get it anymore... So I had been collecting all those hidden falcons all game long for nothing!

Great game otherwise but it has some flaws. I think the worst bullshit was this for me:
>be in a room with switches
>in between the switches there is a pannel telling you a clue about a puzzle involving switches
>the clue isn't actually for the switches that are around the clue, but for the next switches in the next room

Stupid.
