Oxxidation posted:It's mostly 2 but with some quality-of-life improvements. You can drink potions mid-battle, for starters. And with that lost the only interesting part of the potion system. Anyway, those headlights BETTER be worth it Cindy, or I'm going to be very cross after that dungeon. Couldn't they made it a little clearer what you needed to do?

Kalenn Istarion posted:So the usual goon hyperbole then, ok signs also have alternate modes now, there's a sidestep instead of just a roll. the controls you have on geralt feel less like suggestions and more like inputs. slightly clunkier than most games on average but an improvement.

Everyone hates crestholm channels with a fiery passion for some reason, but the dungeon is wander down some hallways press buttons, fall alot, then climb up ladders, fall again BOSS. The only thing I liked/didn't like/ laughed about, was that I didn't know about the falling until a goblin punched noctis and knocked him down one. Then I found it really loving funny instead.

The side-step has insane invincibility frames and you can spam it 24/7. The only things that can really hurt you are the ground pound aoe attacks.

isk posted:Kinda. The addition of the dodge helps a lot. You still have an evasive roll but the dodge sets up counters better. I actually liked the rhythm of the fighting with different combo patterns and counters in witcher 1, it feels like a proto-Arkham Asylum tho not nearly as polished or visceral. FFXV is actually latest in a line of games that borrows some of that attack pattern but without the button timing for boosted damage e: and with a whole bunch of other poo poo layered on around it obviously. I also like the restriction of needing to think ahead about your potion use (somewhat, wasn't really required but made life easier). In that sense, being able to hot swap my whole party's weapons and magic in the middle of battle feels a bit cheap to me in FFXV. You're locked into your armour but I feel like the game would flow better if I wasn't tempted to start each battle by dicking around in my inventory screen. I'm also the person who likes that you can't use potions mid battle in LR and have an extremely limited inventory.

These things are all why I like how it works in witcher 3 and this game Instead of all of us just playing how you'd like you can do either by just ignoring those options.

I just got the game, and I'm a few hours in. Is Noctis flipping out when he gets a massage part of some storyline with him, or is it just a dumb homophobic cut scene for no reason at all?

I thought the massage was just harder than he was expecting. There was nothing homophobic about it.

I react similarly to massages, I think it's just a goofy moment showing how high strung Noctis is that he can't even take a massage at a beach resort.

For me that scene happened right after he found out about ch 2 spoiler his dad dying so it wasn't so weird.

Are there variant versions of FF soundtracks elsewhere in the world? The fact that FFV remains with the SNES sound while the lousy 3DS version of FFIV is on the radio really bugs the hell out of me edit Ugato posted:Actually all I was going to say was that I fought massive centipedes for the side quest in question unless there's another bear trap quest. I still have yet to see a Couerl. I saw a trio of them after exiting the underground shelters Cor escorted me to. They scared the ever-living poo poo out of me!

I just have to get this dumb joke out of my system: Riding the train in the last couple of chapters of the game? That's totally a metaphor for losing the open world and being railroaded to the ending.

He just thinks the massage is weird, I'm guessing it was a younger people don't like massages but the slightly older guy does haha joke. Fish for long period of time to here things that can be mistaken as nothing but penis joke, along with lots more.

I hope something on their agenda is to patch some poo poo to do into altissa. I thought it would be fun and was genuinely excited in the cutscene. And then I got there. Also for those wanting to know, if you beat the justice monsters 5 with 99 chests, the lord vexos wind up gives 60 of the top level of a spell, (there is a level about the -aga's) it also sells for 500k, the first time I sold it before I could check the spell situation.

So, in regards to leveling up and getting stronger. What's the most important thing? Experience to actually level up or ap for all of the abilities and whatnot? I keep finding it difficult to fight groups of enemies because its hard to see the telegraphs for all of the attacks to dodge then, so I figure leveling up would give me higher hp at least.

The best way to raise your HP is by equipping accessories, which you get more slots for by buying them with AP, and eating food.

Noct doesn't like being touched, you can see him shy away from physical contact constantly. People will pat him on the back and he'll immediately step away and push their hands off.

Also download the free holiday pack and use the Nixperience Band every loving time you camp. Actually you should wear it all the time so you never waste any XP on camps and chapter endings and only level up on Galdin Quay for that sweet double XP bonus. You can probably stockpile XP and just do 3 big jumps (1 to 30, 30 to 50, 50 to 99) once you have the right amount of experience and completely breeze through the game.

Kin posted:I thought that band was just for hard-core players who wanted to level 1 their way through the whole game? It stops you from tallying XP, not from gaining it. So you can also just use it to bank your points and then cash them in all at once at the Galdin Quay or Altissia hotels.

Baron Corbyn posted:Why are you all coming up with strategies to gain as many levels as possible as if it isn't comically easy to get overlevelled in this game? Post-game has a very steep curve. If you're like me and wrapped the main story up in your mid-forties without ever having grinded levels, a lot of content ranging from lv.40-100 will open up all at once. It helps to jump a couple dozen levels in Ch.15 to have access to more stuff.

Doing all the side quests in chapter 3 whenever available will get you to around 50 if you use most of it on Galdin. Takes a good chunk to hit max level and rare coins are rare. If you can bank all the game's XP and only use it on Galdin and Altissia the amount of grinding needed to hit 99 would be pretty minimal. Especially since a bunch of chapters are on-rails and pretty much back to back you end up getting some XP then immediately using it up with no multiplier at all. Once I get my platinum I'll probably start up another game to dick around with at low levels until I can make huge XP dumps. That said, the AP grind is stupid and the ascension grid is dumb with some really stupid requirements.
