    FFXII General Discussion

    The game felt different overall - and that was a good thing. But with the new approach came some things I could tell had never been tried before, like the Gambits and Quickenings. And while Gambits, once you got used to them, turned out pretty intelligent and a new tactical approach, the...

    Vayne Solidor

    I could copy and paste this into a thread about Seymour and nobody would ever know. Goes to show they don't make manly villains like they used to. On a more serious note, Vayne was alright. Lacked the "damn, he's good" factor because I don't recall him doing anything that caught me off-guard in...

    Does anyone find this game considerably difficult?

    Awkward at first, I kept thinking pressing buttons would actually do something until I realized it was still turn-based. Only real problem I've had thus far was the Cluckatrice (sp?) Hunt, which I tried while severely under-levelled. From then on I learned to take my time in new areas to level...

    Nintendo Pokemon Platinum

    Already did; getting an answer involves knowing my "Secret Trainer ID", which, on account of it being "secret", I do not know. :P

    Nintendo Pokemon Platinum

    Hunting for Munchlax is terribly, terribly frustrating. Especially since apparently, only 4 trees have the 1% chance of having one. All the others in the game are useless. Not only is guessing which trees are worth searching annoying, getting 90% Combees after 213 Honeys is starting to get on my...

    Best Musical piece in FFXII

    Seeking Power. Beautiful tune, interesting that you're slaying creatures all the while it plays, it gives off a feeling of "I'm so awesome I can kick ass with no need for a battle theme". The song that plays during the load screen is nice as well. What's it called really, "Final Fantasy"...

    That super robot summon

    Hum, he's talking about Ark the Airship Transformer. It appeared as a boss earlier in the game, but other than that, it's not the first the time the ultimate summon of a game is completely new to the franchise: FFVII had Knights of the Round, FFVIII had Eden, FFIX had Ark, FFX had the Magus...

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is a fantastic game in my opinion. ;) Mod Edit: Can you please say why it is a fantastic game etc in future please =]

    Videogame Music Knowledge Game

    Because? The songs aren't about Final Fantasy, and it relates to Music more than anything else. Doesn't make much sense to me, but you're the boss...

    Playstation Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4

    Intro note: The guy in my avatar that practically says "Hello child, want to come to my place?" is from that game. Moving on... Got the game two weeks ago and so far, I'm loving it. I have no expectations of doing everything right and maxing out all Social Links on my first playthrough, I'll...

    Playstation Dragon Quest VIII

    Didn't cut it for me. The game looks too childish - Akira Toriyama made the designs, and you can tell, as the enemies look like something out of the original Dragonball. Even the bosses, every single one of them, fail to look menacing. There are no great characters in it either, overall I'm not...

    your luckiest fight?

    Well, upon reading your post I can't help but wonder... Same happened to me, except Odin only came out on the second Ruby Dragon, after I had already been struggling to kill the first one. I thought it was sheer random luck, but now I don't know anymore. Also, after fighting the robot which...

    Serious Do you believe in romance?

    Romance exists as far as you're letting it exist. If there's love to begin with, there's a solid base for romance. Be it gifts or anything else, if you do it with the intention of making the other person happy, then you're giving romance a shot - you may fail miserably because not everyone's a...

    Do you define roles?

    Penelo and Ashe as mages, Basch as a tank, Penelo as a blocker/healer. And boy, does she block. I love the set-up so much that she's still using a Main Gauche even though I'm past the Mosphoran Highwaste at the moment.

    Favourite ever song?

    Bat Out of Hell by Meat Loaf. Over 9 minutes of varying-pace rock bliss. The song itself never grows repetitive because it has a fair share of rhythm changes, like many other medley-like songs of Meat Loaf. But Bat has some kind of unique energy to it that made me fell in love with it - you can...
