If you put Wait on and make sure to have one person ready to act at all times, you can hop into a menu during animations to let them play out without advancing the timer.

John Wick of Dogs posted:FF5 makes some weird decisions. Like I just got to Walse and am in a castle which should be safe to walk around, but nope there's an enemy in the basement randomly that can easily kill your whole party without warning On the GBA version quicksaves would reset the step counter before a fight, so you could just walk a few steps, save/load, then walk a few more to get an early Elven Mantle with zero risk.

Harrow posted:That said, maybe wait a month or so if you plan to play during NA prime time. The game is currently more popular than it's ever been and it's melting the login servers, so it's very difficult to play if you try to log on during NA prime time. Wingnut Ninja posted:If you're able to mitigate these issues, like say being in a weird Greenwich-centric time zone, then give it a shot, but start with the free trial before committing money to something you may not be able to play for a while. Just keep in mind that free trial users cannot log in if there's a queue going. If there's a single paid player waiting to get in, they take priority.

NikkolasKing posted:I think this is the much bigger problem with X-2. It just never once answers "what happens to people who die?" X firmly establishes they need to be Sent but there are no more Summoners in X-2 and we are never even given a single offhand line of dialogue about how there are now "professional Senders" to deal with this. On the plus side, the International content reveals that you are 100% capable of maintaining your sense of self as a fiend. Your starter monster was a Yevon priest in life, and is so loving happy to be working with a High Summoner.

Onean posted:Yeah, if you haven't checked out One Step from Eden yet, it's gameplay is almost exactly the MMBN battles. I tried Eden and bounced off of it fairly hard. The main thing that soured me was the lack of any kind of Custom Screen. In BN, they could throw bullshit like Bass at you because you only had to deal with, at most, like 30 seconds of combat before you can open the Custom Screen and have a break to catch your breath before the next barrage. Eden instead has you instantly reload your deck the moment you run out, so you get All Fight All The Time, and I ended up finding it draining to play.

PunkBoy posted:I recall someone here a while ago posting a link to a bunch of patches and fixes for the PC versions of either Final Fantasy XIII or XIII-2 (or both?). Would anyone be able to share that link again? One thing to note about XIII is that it downloads every prerendered cutscene twice, as the EN and JP versions have different lip syncing. If you want to save some space, you can safely delete the cutscenes of whatever language you aren't using and cut the size of the game by a ton.

Harrow posted:Xenoblade 2 had a no-real-money-involved gacha system for Blades, which were basically personified weapons with special powers that you could equip on your characters. You did have actual party members, though. Until you get a new character, crack open so many cores that they cap out their Blade limit, and get nothing but generic Blades. Want to put some actually good Blades on him? Haha have fun burning rare Overdrive Protocols to pilfer unique Blades from your other party members.

Boy of Joy posted:I’m pretty sure the latest SoP demo has corpse runs where you can get back all your previous MP bars, this wasn’t in the previous versions was it? I like it a lot more as if you died too much previously against a boss you had to go farm more MP from enemies if you wanted to use special moves/spells on the boss. From what I noticed going into a boss fight will bring you up to a minimum MP count, so you have a baseline minimum if you just want to keep throwing yourself at the boss,

Flytrap posted:People go into debt and borrow from criminals to whale harder. In the FGO fandom there's an infamous story about a guy who took a loan out rolling for Jalter, then borrowed money from the Yakuza to pay off the loan...but before they made it to the bank they instead rolled it all on Jalter again. Small correction, the yakuza whale guy was rolling for Scathach, not Jalter.

Barudak posted:Im gonna trust you on not having any, but you've got to be the literal only person I've ever heard about who doesn't have at least one by that point. What have you been using them on??? Aerosols are a pain in the rear end to farm, iirc. They have the highest drop rate if you 1-2 star fights, so you have to go out of your way to get more if you burn whatever you got from chests. I also ran out during my first run. Cleretic posted:Doesn't it have a whole thing where if someone dies everyone's memories of them are wiped, too? Opera Omnia made a thing out of other game's characters learning about that and being all 'hey what the gently caress'. Nah it gets shown in the first cutscene. Guy on a chocobo gets mortally wounded, one of the MCs starts crying over it, only to instantly calm down the second the guy dies. It actually leads to one of my favorite bits of world building in the series. One of the NPCs at Akademia mentions that everyone has dog tags, but every class leaves them in a pile when they go to battle. When the fight is over, everyone grabs theirs and checks what tags are left. They don't know the name on the tag? That person is dead. They still know them? They're alive but MIA.

SMERSH Mouth posted:Never played Type-0 and only have a very cursory conception of what its deal is, but if it’s dark and brutal then that’s at least a good course correction from VIII. I always thought the “teen military academy” was a baffling plot device in a story where all the characters essentially treat it like just being in normal high school and everyone survives until the end. Type 0 is a setting where people leave their dogtags at base before a battle, since the Crystal wipes all memories of you from everyone if you die. No one picks up the dogtag and no one knows the name? They died, make a token gravestone for them. No one picks up the dogtag and they do know the name? They know the guy is MIA.

Guess I can try again in Dali later. Tetra Master in general just feels like they tried to make Triple Triad BUT MORE. In practice, it just feels like nonsense where clashes are won and lost seemingly arbitrarily.

You do get some extra points but while I don't even remember how, I do recall getting a huge penalty in some category or other. You probably took too long killing the robot. Killing it gives you a free SEED rank, but your Conduct score starts dropping once the timer hits 25:00.
