How large is the install on the 360? I am stuck with a 20 gig HD so space is always at a premium. Also out of the people I know I am the only person not making some sort of Game of Thrones knockoff characters, which is disappointing. I am not going for high art mind you because at the moment in the Demo my char/pawn is set as Conan and Red Sonja.

So is there a way to turn off the letterboxing of the gameplay? It didn't bug me in the demo because it was such a small slice, but now that I am out in the world it is driving me mad.

toasterwarrior posted:A question for Warrior players: I've been looking for a good action game ever since I finished Bayonetta, and since the Warrior's combat style was designed by the DMC3/4 teams, would you say that the combat in this game as the Warrior can get to that level? Well I am not far enough to make any real qualitative statement towards that, but do keep in mind that Bayonetta is pretty much the pinnacle of the character action genre in terms of combat, so anything else is going to be a step down. That said I am having fun with my fighter so far, although a lot of the more advanced options are gated behind you spending points on earning abilities.

NESguerilla posted:Ok, is it normal to get completely owned towards the beginning? I am fighting some worms and they kill me in about 2 hits and take a solid minute a piece to kill. There must be a dozen of them too. I just ran away from those. My main pawn kept on yabbering we need to run and I don't really see a way to win against those things early on. Just run back up and trigger the cutscene.

This is kinda fucky that Warriors get screwed out on active skills. I just assumed since they have 1 weapon it would be 6 skills assigned to lb/rb like wizards, but no, 3 it is. This was the class I was most looking forward to so this is really lame.

VDay posted:Are you sure you have more than 3 warrior skills to equip? That seems really bizarre. Does it just not let you equip skills to LB on the Set Skills page? I have way more than 3 skills to equip. My pawn is also a mage so I can just tab over to see how they have it to compare. It seems mighty dumb that you can't assign anything to LB. DrManiac posted:Are you using one handed weapons? beacuse they only get 3 skill apiece with the other 3 going to your secondary weapon (bows, shields) Warriors can only use 2h weapons.

Sindai posted:So I made my pawn a hulking mohawked female warrior with the skull facepaint. Curious to see what kind of comments I get about her, considering I haven't seen a single other tall/muscular female pawn. The coolest pawn I used so far was one like that. My pawn is getting used by tons of people so far(she is pretty in a nice dress = mad crystals). Most responses I get back though are she was lovely in combat, I made her a support mage and people don't seem to like it Also general Q: The take a picture function, does it have to upload to facebook just to get the picture? I want the picture but I don't wanna post it on facebook.

Sylphosaurus posted:So, has anyone some impressions of the fighter and warrior classes vocations? Are they as dull as they usually tend to be in RPG's or did Capcom actually invest some fun Devil May Cry gameplay into them? There is depth here if you want it, don't worry, for reference I have only been playing the fighter based classes. Hell one of the Assassin skills is literally just a roman cancel(Lets you immediately stop what you are doing and go back to neutral for those that do not know).

Ok having put decent time into Fighter, Warrior, Assassin, and Mystic Knight, the Knight is the coolest class, if only on the virtue of sky dance. Sky dance you rocket jump up into the air, then do a flying stinger at the enemy. and anyone near you(enemies) also gets launched up with you, it also can serve as a double jump. Coolest moment I have had in this game so far was killing an enemy by jumping between rooftops and sky dance right into his face.

It only cancels the unfinished wyrmhunter quest things. I myself let the cipher quest die cause I couldn't figure it out.

I have put some time into every class now except sorcerer and Knight is my favourite class. Sky dance is something you need to feel out and get the hang of, its not as straightforward as the blink strike(I have taken blink strike off my bar in favour of sky dance). Once you get the hang of it it is really fun and versatile. Also the magic skills for sword are quite good, I assume you dont have Vortex+ yet or you wouldn't be saying that. Holy wall eats up proectiles to the range of its force field is my full best guess. I have seen it eat up fireballs without me actually blocking it but the wording is so vague I don't know if that is all that it does or not. *ed* Other great thing about the Knight is the fact you can use staves. It really gives you full coverage against all enemies in the game. I didn't think I would use it much at first but after I learned comestion it is a gamechanger. You get options against air based foes like harpies and the like, while having comestion devastate giant creatures. Evil Canadian fucked around with this message at 07:52 on May 24, 2012 |

Dawnfire posted:Does Vortex+ work on bigger enemies then? Cause I tried to get the starter version working and it couldn't take in humans, and the range was pretty bad. I'm up for giving it another try if others say some of the upgraded versions are good then. Magick cannon seemed to lack any real oomph though, unless the upgraded version starts pelting out like 3 times the damage it didn't seem super useful at the time. Vortex works on everything that isn't a giant sized like ogres and cyclops. Magick cannon kinda sucks, use staff for your long ranged abilities(Although upgraded version actually literally does 3x the damage, 3 hits instead of 1). I use staff and mace fairly interchangeably, Mace for human foes sized foes, staff for fliers and the rest.

Just had a new best game moment. On the fight against the 2 cyclops in the open grassy area(the one used in a lot of the previews), I jumped from the back of one cyclops as it was falling onto the face of the other one in one smooth motion, and immediately started bashing it in the face with my mace Also is there anyway to replace lost quest items? Specifically the alehouse quest in regards to the ledger you need to find. I found it a long time ago and I assume I must have sold it or something, and it does not respawn in fournivals house.

futureproof posted:The same thing happened to me. You can find Quina again at the abbey in wilted forest, but you missed out on your introduction to witchwood and meeting the witch. I think the witch gives out quests later on but I can't say for sure because I completely missed her my first playthrough. I missed her at the start too because I just went straight to the fort. I have never been able to do any quests involving her or the witch since, and I am sure I have missed quite a few quests due to that. For those just starting the game make sure you do all the quests there before you move onwards to the fort, as you can permanently miss quests. Now for a random aside, is there any way to procure the nuns outfit for yourself? I would love to turn my mystic knight into a Battle Nun

ArcticZombie posted:Is it me or does the Mystic Knight have some wonky skill layouts? Why in the world the Mystic Knight gets a bigger shield and a bunch of tank augments when he has no skills to actually make use of them I don't know. They did have that really cool air dash sword/mace move which I miss. Knight augments are just about the worst ones in the game, but the class is still my favourite. Having your shield shoot fireballs and lasers at people while you sky dance everywhere simply can't be matched by the other classes. Also for those that started NG+, do the harder enemies stay around when you start NG+, or is it all the derpy little weak ones again? *ed* Also Stone forest(upgraded one) for the Knight, is just about the coolest giant killer move in the game if you can get it off. You just slam your sword into the ground and then you are the epicenter of a massive explosion.
