The monster look a little like atomos in FFIX

Giant monster aside, that's pretty much my dream-house.

it's a giant barnacle with tentacles.

Imagine that's what you fish in the real world..

"Hmmh, too small."

I say this having never actually played Nier, but that monster reminds me of six-tits. Which I only saw once or twice in a few of the pre-release trailers.

Question. I see a crossbow in this picture, but not a regular 'wood and string' one; does the crossbow tag also imply bow_(weapon)? If it does, or if there's a different bow in this picture and I was too blind to see it, then fair enough, but I'm just curious. I checked the tags and saw that one mentioned the other, but still not sure if both are applicable on a non-crossbow.

Why hello there, Charybdis.
