Still only barely got it under the wire since I needed to scan them too To the first part: he's part of Ouroborous's dipshit grunt squadron, who basically exist to get their arse kicked as a distraction/delaying tactic As for the latter, I feel their individual personalities get a lot of room to show without Rean constantly hogging the spotlight. In general Cold Steel 3/4 did a lot to flesh out Altina after the amusing interactions with her in CS2.

CSIV Act 1 Part...3? I think: I very, very genuinely appreciated Estelle just verbally rolling her drat eyes at Cao's declaration that he wouldn't be using his ~full strength~. That kind of thing has easily been the worst part of the series for me and I just really enjoyed a character just not being there for that poo poo at all

I think the to the final act 1 boss was just being able to go in with plenty of CP and BP, Gilbert is usually last man standing with decent hp so just standards attacks to build up I dont remember what Roselia whips out but I remember beating her the first try, hardest V M game for me was when Tilia whips out the knight card and at this point in the game it can nearly one shot your weak starting cards, the AI for VM is certainly better than CSIII but still not too difficult.

Kurt works well in the context of Nu Class VII where he serves a distinct character role amidst the rest of the class. Like so many other characters that gets lost when he's one of 500 million characters sharing a scene at the same time.

There's a lot of bangers in CS4, which is no surprise although I found that as the Cold Steel series progresses we get more rad electronic numbers.

You'll probably enjoy the first dungeon of Act 3 if you like Syncronicity, I really enjoyed the final dungeon's songs and the redone version of Atrocious Raid Minor complaint but it's annoying there is no large area fire-based spell outside of the lost arts. infraboy fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Nov 4, 2020 |

Act 1 Fragments boss rush done. Managed to finish it first time through - with the full 10 AP too - but really don't want to do that again any time soon.

I would have gotten the 10 AP too but I hosed up the order of my limits and could not possibly be arsed to do that over

I like the power rangers(Juna Red, Kurt Blue, Ash Yellow, Musse Green, Altina Black) a lot and I thrive when we have as many characters around at once as possible, but in the big bad sequel to all previous arcs climax bit, I feel like having some new kids completely out of their league just wasnt the best idea, and that scene early on where Class VII is acting completely out of character doing nothing and Juna yells at them is honestly one of my least favorite scenes in the series.

Yes they cost 0EP, I don't find them all that powerful compared to the final tier of the standard arts, but the stats they provide are huge

I idly switched Master cards right before Rose, and it turns out that Bard is indeed just utterly busted in competent (i.e. player) hands. Completely rolled over Rose (who's using Witch incidentally - so 5 starting Mana and a 3 cost ability to do 4 damage to anything), and now the next challenger too (who was using Knight). You don't even need a ranged build to really break the game with Bard, because sealed cards don't get their counterattack.
