Benedikt XVI posted:Oh, nice. I have two requests: Shadow Hearts: Covenant -Nothing makes the game easier than the Coral Pendant. Seriously, get them for everyone. They're also good for keeping your %s high so you get the Extreme in Japan. -You really only need one good caster. -All the end-game content in the game appears after you enter the final dungeon once. -You don't get a Scan ability until late in the game. Once you get it, spam it often. -Bosses tend to have one status effect gimmick per fight. -Ring effects are the worst thing you can have, more so than instant death.

ShrewdOrganMerchant posted:Any advice for Etrian Odyssey 2 for the DS? I've played this game for hours on end, yet my party is still getting their asses kicked by the weakest encounters, my income barely covers healing expenses, and no-one'll give me more quests to do. Also, are F.O.E's just a cruel joke? F.O.E.'s aren't like in EO1, if you played that. They're meant to make you maneuver the maze. No XP, occasional drops. Never, ever let one catch you with your back to the wall. If you need to, grind. It'll make it easier for you to kill the later enemies, as well as start to improve your equipment. What's your setup right now?

EggsofSteel posted:I've just started Final Fantasy XII thanks to everyone here loving it, and I was wondering if you guys had any tips for it. It'll be obvious who's coming and going, since they'll be labeled GUEST in the menu. I mean, you may lose some characters for a while, but they'll come back. Also, remember that the game's not about Vaan or Penelo at all. It's all about Basch, Balthier, and Fran.

Faerie Fortune posted:I know it's been mentioned a thousand times before and I apologise but I'm a brand new player to not only Disgaea (DS if it matters) but the entire SRPG genre itself - normally I play dungeon crawlers and Final Fantasy type RPGs. I love the humour and the characters though so I really want to get into it but it's a whole new genre I know nothing about. So guys, what should a first time SRPG/Disgaea player really really know? I would also suggest throwing the fight at the end of Chapter 1. You'll start a new cycle, and you can get a hidden character Plenair, the mascot with a fairly rare weapon proficiency.

Because I just bought them on Steam this weekend, I'm curious if anyone has anything to say about 1701; and possibly, tips on achieving higher level play in Droplitz.

That Awful Nick posted:I just bought the Introversion Software megapack for $5 on Steam because I was going to buy Defcon for $10 but why not just get all the games for $5? I want to play Uplink because it seems like a really cool game but I guess I must have missed something because I am miserable at this game. Any hints? Uplink -At the start, improving your processor speed is king. It'll speed up everything that's not downloading a file. -I don't know if this bites you in the rear end later, but for security's sake, get Log Deleter v4 as soon as possible and basically designate the tutorial network as the key link in your bouncing chain. So after every mission, go there, and clear out the logs. It's been ages since I played. YMMV.  -Keep the IPs given to you for missions on the maps. Extending the connection chains gives you more time for each hacking attempt.

Xander77 posted:Remember to hunt for artifacts, even if they don't seem that useful in the beginning. However, any artifact which has the side effect of increasing your radiation will quickly kill you unless paired with one that reduces radiation. And any artifacts that say that increase health? They don't. They improve health regen after combat, so the decreased damage resistance just isn't worth it. Equip it after a fight when you're recovering.

Hammerfight owns, and I'm really glad to see it get some time in the spotlight in this bundle. -The strongest weapons in the game when you're fighting a shielded enemy (and pretty much anything else) is a good flail. The chains mean they can build up a lot more velocity when you whip them around compared to a mace or sword. Stun enemies against a wall, then pound on their shields to break them off for you to pick up. -Guns are pretty worthless, but for the most part, they're pretty lightweight and good against beasts, so you could try joining them to a weapon if you're so inclined. -There's no New Game+, so all the sweet weapons you collect during story mode are only good for arena, but the modes you unlock in the different story paths are accessible for any new saves you start, so you can put your brand new guy in the arena to get some decent weapons. -Hotkey at least one shield, so when you hit that button, all your shields will attempt to cover as much of your vehicle as possible. Five is pretty much complete coverage. -For some blades, you'll want to right click to make sure the edged part is hitting the opponent. -You unlock an armory eventually that'll let you change your ship's loadout. You can access this from the main menu as well, so you can change equipment between missions that normally wouldn't allow it. -Glory and fame are pretty much for show. The more titles you get, the bigger and more ornate banners you'll carry.

Lavender Philtrum posted:Orfeo, what's the deal with killing/letting enemies live in Hammerfight? Are there pros/cons for doing either? I've just been letting them live and not really caring if I accidentally kill one, but i thought i saw a bunch of It's a matter of titles. Killing a bunch of dudes will get you titles like "the Slayer," while sparing people will get you to be called "the Merciful." As far as I know, there aren't any major ramifications for if you spare dudes or not. But I think you get more glory for sparing them.
