The Black Stones posted:The requirements is lightning - 3, ether gun - 3, and you have to bring Ursula. Because you only have 6 slots and Ursula you have to double up one. The other mission had flame - 3, shield axe - 3. Which I finally managed to get. I retract my question I quit hers because they were bullshit and I'm not even remotely surprised that they get worse

DACK FAYDEN posted:oh it's loving URSULA's higher tier stuff You can coast on her quests that give out 2 notes because they can be done in 4 min or less, I’ve almost maxed out her soul voice and then have 2 others left to do. It’s not hard, just long because you have to get up to 99 notes for all her stuff.

Getsuya posted:Last Remnant PC is the best SaGa game. By a landslide. TLR is a garbage game and always will be. Yes I know the PC version unfucks a ton of issues the Xbox version had. No that doesn't make it a good game, just a mediocre one instead of a crime against gaming like the Xbox version is.

The Colonel posted:tidus isn't anakin skywalker because anakin skywalker is a stiffly written character who's arc is murdering everyone cause an old man took advantage of his boner and tidus is a guy with awkward voice direction who walked into a hosed up depression death world and decided it was bullshit and consistently acts towards trying to make it not be a hosed up death world anymore, or at least to help yuna escape from being doomed to die for the hosed up death world. tidus wants everything because he wants a world where people don't have to be miserable and yuna doesn't have to die, not because he's a whiny baby who needs to learn a moral about how you should just accept that the world sucks i really think the vast majority of tidus' negative reception is solely due to his VA hamstringing the character

tidus' va isn't bad though, he has a couple obnoxious scenes but that's down to voice direction like the rest of the cast, not his ability as an actor

Getsuya posted:I bought into the FFX hate-hype of guys like Spoony and convinced myself it was the shittiest FF on the planet. Then when the remaster came out I bought it and played it and realized it was a pretty good game and that I shouldn't trust opinions of people who make money by hating things. I played FFX before I even knew what a Spoony was and I absolutely hated it. Couldn't stand Tidus, he sapped all the fun out of the game. After trying a couple times to get past my dislike of Tidus, I gave up and sold the game.

I'm pretty sure that people here just don't like 2, 3DS, 8, 13, and 13-2. I don't know if critical opinion has shifted around on that though but I'm pretty sure those are the ones people don't care for.

DACK FAYDEN posted:Small segments of us (me, the degenerate) like 8 and 13 and 13-2. That said, ever since that one dude got banned and that other dude vanished 3DS has no defenders except rutabaga, who doesn't post in this thread often. How significantly different is the 3DS version of 3 compared to the original? I've only played 3 DS but I always sort of figured that the frustrating components of the game sort of mimicked the original release. Also I think your enjoyment of FF8 mostly comes down to how much you enjoy it as a game that you play, as opposed to all the story and character components

RazzleDazzleHour posted:How significantly different is the 3DS version of 3 compared to the original? I've only played 3 DS but I always sort of figured that the frustrating components of the game sort of mimicked the original release. They lowered the max amount of enemies per battle from 4 to 3, and to balance that they made all the enemies stronger and gave bosses extra turns which ends up adding a lot of bullshit to the game that the NES version didn't have (not that it didn't have its own share) EDIT: Also instead of lowering your stats after switching jobs you spend Capacity Points (CP) to change jobs in the NES version, which you earn after battle so it's less of a pain in the rear end to switch jobs

Literally my only real complaint with 13-2 is that the game is the most braindead easy RPG ever made and that's a huge disappointment given that 13 showed that SE does know how to balance a game for people that passed 2nd grade.

cheetah7071 posted:13-2 ruled and I'm actually a little surprised goons are down on it I like a lot of FF13-2 in theory but the absolutely rock-bottom difficulty kills it for me because the strength of FF13 was its combat system and short of doing a bare-bones no-leveling run (which hurts the fun monster mechanics in addition to other stuff) it ends up feeling absurdly boring to me, and I think LR did almost everything it did well better.

13-2 was great except for the ending which retroactively ruined it and the fact that it retroactively ruins the (admittedly maybe a bit too) cheerful ending of 13.

One of the series I’m looking at for my retro JRPG play throughs is the Momotaro Densetsu series. It’s a DQ clone with Japanese folklore as the setting and the first one ditched 4-5 towns’ worth of content to add in bathhouse scenes. The creator stated in an interview: ‘I’m fairly sure ours is the only Famicom game to cut content for bathhouses’

13 is goodcheetah7071 posted:13-2 ruled and I'm actually a little surprised goons are down on it The combat system is watered down in a bunch of aspects, more than it adds on, and monster collection isn't everyone's thing. The story and characters are sorta better than 13, but it's got a bunch of it's own issues there that make it only marginal. Also the big "fix" of the game was that it's a lot more free and open to explore than 13 was, but it mostly doesn't do anything cool with it and a lot of that just ends up meh at best and annoying at worst. It's got some genuine cool things like Crazy Chocobo and Chronobind, but then there's genuine awful things like Academia 300 and the slots fragment. The bosses aren't terrible, but most of them aren't very notable or are any threat. Combat is extremely easy to exploit since there are a bunch of strong monster crystals that will just naturally come to the player eventually. When I revisted the game, I found that there was a lot more bad things that made the hour-to-hour experience tedious than good things that I wanted to find again. It's not like, terrible, but it didn't really do anything outstanding, and LR did most things better than 13-2 so it's easy to overlook. At least 13 has the combat/balancing going for it, but 13-2 doesn't even have that. I do know a couple of people who like 13-2 the most but it's usually for some specific reasons (usually the monster crafting stuff). Ventana fucked around with this message at 20:44 on Dec 18, 2017 |

The ending of 13-2 is one of the best parts, which granted isn't saying much. It has some cool moments, Caius devouring the scenery, and a great but very poorly used soundtrack, but the combat is too easy except for the bonus bosses, and optimizing the monsters isn't very fun at least for me. Zombie academia is also absolutely miserable and I can't believe anyone thought that was a good idea.

Kild posted:Which boss? The bonus dungeon boss or some other one? Garuda, for which there are only three viable strategies. One is make everyone Dragoons with Wind Spears, spam Jump, and pray that you kill him before he kills you. The other is to grind a Thief up to JLvl 99 so they can steal a Raven's Yawn from monkeys outside and then have a Scholar use it to oneshot him. Lastly you grind up like the mid-30s at a point in the game when you're probably going to be in the mid-20s and just kind of hope you win because that's how hard he hits. Iron Giant I don't really count since you're expected to grind up to max everything to fight him anyway but a Viking with two shields (the only time that shields are good) makes him a lot more manageable. Kild posted:did you not do the bonus bosses or something DLC bosses are good and super fun but those cost extra and even the hardest stuff in the base game like Yomi or Raspatil you can just kind of bowl over without much thought. Bosses in 13 are harder than that starting in chapter 4.
