I've been hoofing it around the Dead Dunes, finding the Temple Ruins entrances and I only just realized that on my way back to the surface, I've been singing Snake Eater to myself. I don't think I'll ever be able to interact with a ladder without doing that for the rest of my life.

What a thrill...

Please help Coughing Hobo, he can't stop commentating on video games like a pro!

Alright, I'm STILL not going to get this game, but just from watching three livestreams of it (all three at different stages of the game), let me see if I got this straight?

Your ideal set up should consist of two attacking schema's and one purely defensive schema. One of the garbs should be Soldier of Peace, because Artemis' Arrows is "GG GAME". your other two commands for that schema can be whatever, but I guess you want Attack and maybe a Guard? The other offensive Schema, that I've seen, should be your Magic guy, and should have at least three -ra spells, because the -aga spells have always sucked in this series, and I'm surprised there are people who haven't realized this yet. The fourth command can be, again, whatever.

The purely defensive schema should have the Preta Hood and Ghostly Hood equipped so that they can just absolutely ignore any attack in the game. This schema's set up should be about debuffing: Deshell, Deprotect, and Imperil, because apparently Poison is really good. The fourth command should be A Guard of some kind, preferably Heroic Guard, Heavy Guard, or just plain Guard.

The strategy here is to use the defensive setup to debuff, then switch to Magic setup and other offensive set up to Stagger, and whenever the enemy attacks switch to your defensive set up so you can laugh at his clumsy attempts to attack you. Based on this, the best schemas are therefore: Soldier of Peace, some magic schema/a defensive schema that you can make into your magic schema/Paladin, and either Passion Rouge/Sand Fox for the innate debuffs.

Is this right? I'm still not actually going to get get the game, but just from observing, this seems to be what you should be aiming for.

Because that's the kind of rear end in a top hat I am. I like strategizing, min/maxing, in depth stuff like lore, mechanics, poo poo like that. Even a game I dislike (and I do dislike this game, holy poo poo I do, from what I've seen so far) I'll still try to do these things. I'm not proud of it, but I can't help myself.

Just beat it a minute ago, and out of all the absolutely silly plot stuff, I'm glad one of the few things thing I genuinely cared about got a good conclusion. Noel got to reunite with his Yuel. :allears:

A YUEL WHO LOVED BAGGY PANTS. A YUEL WHO LIKED TO COSPLAY AS KINGDOM HEARTS CHARACTERS. A YUEL WHO DREAMED OF VISITING DISNEYLAND. I have known them all! They have all died, right before my very eyes!

I think the funny thing is, if this was another (better) game in another (better) game series, I honestly think I would like the ending.
