Indeed.
It would be awesome as an Unskippable: Let's Play, IMO.

I believe Constable painted the most famous depiction of a beastwaine.

The similarities with the beginning of FFXII are striking: As a foreign enemy who most of the kingdom should hate is being welcomed to the city with a giant party, a non-human shop owner who's providing something for the party sends his blond assistant boy out on an errand. Granted, slightly different circumstances for the welcoming (the king isn't dead... yet; the princess isn't in hiding... yet), but still...

I'll be honest, the only reason I know what a wain is is because of this...

I would guess that a "beastwaine" would be one of them big carts, being pulled by some kind of large animal, and carrying a load of superfluous E's.
While no one overhear you quickly tell me not cow cow.
but how about watch phone?

The best Google result for "beastwaine" is the Unskippable page, so yeah, I'm calling totally made up word.

I thought the exact same thing as Munck. There should be an Unskippable: Lets Play with this game if the actual game could support it.

I wonder if you get a chance to eat some beastwaine during the course of the game, sounds unusual yet adventurous.
Maybe with some gravy...., damn, now I'm hungry.... TO THE KITCHEN!!!

Yeah, I don't think continuing with this game is a good idea. The stinger text at the end is right.

I found it funny that the game had a mute in it who had a reason; if somewhat cliché and contrived, to be mute, the gives the game a mute protagonist with no characterisation at all...
