MoC? I haven't played that one, but the Ys games are fantastic. Is this your first?
Other than old, old ones that I no longer remember. I played a couple hours tonight. It's ok, but the combat doesn't really seem to be more than mash square over and over. I'm just going to play without a guide, and depending on what I get for trophies, I might not even plat it and move on when I'm done.
 
I played it about 8-9 months ago. I dont recall any of that. But I could be wrong. Game was mindless fun. Still dont know shit about the story.
Hm. It was used. The disc is fairly clean, but I'll try cleaning it off just in case that's the problem. I've hard locked in the same place 3 times now so I'm going to be pissed if I can't get further.

I've played Ark and Oath on Vita. They're both really solid and I absolutely recommend them. They're difficult and it does require some effort especially against bosses. Haven't played MoC yet, though, nor 7 (exact same gameplay style as MoC.)

 
Uhm. I hate you. You suck and all of your opinions are going to be forever void. It's hard for me to rip on FFXIII. It was one of those games that I really didn't like the first 20 hours of and then it got good, but I refuse to accept that overall it was a good experience. I still bought the sequel, which made improvements but was so fuck ing confusing with the time switching. I still want to play FFXIII-3 and I am surprised I haven't learned my lesson.
idk how people enjoy doing this. it feels so silly, and i haven't really said anything at all. i was sharing simmias' sentiments at first, especially after you ripped on dfb 2. you earned a few points back with the ff13 stuff though. 13-2 was confusing at first, but i played through the game several times in route to alternate endings/platinum. 13-3 is pretty light on story. there's a little bit of backstory into how everything came to be, some current events, and a little more backstory into other characters. the gameplay is definitely the best of the 3 though, and there's a lot of customization.

and omg this fat princess level is pissing me off so much. i just want to mark it as beat

I wish it was more RPGish. Very, very basic RPG elements so far. And I also wish it was easier to level up. Most enemies give 1-3 XP, and at level 9/10, I need something like 350 XP.
 
Ok, in DFB2 how do I see when an enemy is "beat up" and I'll be able to catch them?  

Seems like when there's only one enemy left on screen, I can't see their status.  I'm sick of breaking nets and not catching enemies, those shits are expensive.

Also, my party is full with captured enemies right now, but I'm still early in the game.  If I capture more, they're being counted and going somewhere, like Pokemon, right?

I just did it, because you were egging me on. I'm not actually mad or anything. I don't think you suck or your opinions are void lol. I'm actually exhausted. Just chillin smoking hookah.

Oh also. You don't agree that DFB2 was buggy? It crashed on me all the time. It froze all the time. Also I didn't think it held up to the first one as well. I played it on the Vita, I wonder if the PS3 experience might be different?

i don't recall any way to tell. i don't think it uses the nets anyway unless you actually cap the monster. extra capped monsters should automatically go to the bar.

i knew that, i was just speaking in general. seems some people love to pounce on a chance like that, and really seem to get a kick out of doing it. i'm one of those rare few that doesn't give a shit whether or not someone enjoys a game that i really like. i loved duke nukem forever too, and i'm pretty sure the club only has like 3 members.

Only reason to capture is for the trophies. I eventually was just using Ogden by himself for the last quarter of the game. But you can drop off captures at the taverns. Not sure if you can add more once your party is full.

I know, I'm just trying to get started early to make sure I get 50 monsters. I guess I haven't made it to a tavern, I just want to make sure the game is registering the captures I make when my party is full.

Leveling up gets easier once you're towards end game. Did you start on nightmare or regular? Plat makes you play the game twice so it's easier to start on a lower difficulty, max out all your weapons, then go back and wreck everything on nightmare for your second playthrough.

 
Has anyone played Soul Sacrifice? Should I do Inside Avalon (Avalon Pacts) instead of focusing on the story? Does it matter?
avalon pacts are just side things. if those are the i-x <name> pacts. no story really involved, just a way to get different offerings, and train whichever npcs you like. also the only pacts you play in multiplayer.

 
Say a three syllable word instead of a one syllable word? So I suppose we should, for instance, refer to the TV show as Marvel's Agents of Ess-Aech-Eye-Ee-El-Dee instead?

no they would say nes as in Elliot ness or loch ness I stead of saying the letters n e s.
 
And Velo, I also have no idea what's going on in RoF. I started skipping cutscenes at chapter two.
But...but then you miss perfection like this:

I flew 5000 kms in jet pack joyride for the vita so I'm pretty proud of myself today...

RDR is my favorite game I've played so far for ps3, so I don't see how people are talking shit about it. Yeah the herding is dumb but its such a small part of the whole game. The game was gorgeous, fun, had a great story, and one of the only games in a long while I could just have fun exploring.
 
fuk....Only one assignment left in BF4 Dragon's Teeth (Other than the 10 hours one, though I'm at 6/10 on it) and it looks impossible.

 
I just read that story. That is pretty awesome. Thanks ProfStotch. Now I understand the fmvs and the bosses I was fighting. I love complex critical deep plots, but this game was so tough to understand what is going on. I am playing through a 2nd time now (trophies, speed run) and im still like, what...?

Hey Velo are you gonna sign up for the Bioshock 2 session for Sat? Simmias made another session on TT.

I've been curious about this series for some time. What is the main draw of the series? Is it known for its story development, it's characters or just the gameplay?

Gameplay. There's waifus to be had and a fairly minimal story in the ones I've played, but the gameplay is definitely the focus.

 
I never had any problems with it. Have you upgraded your hard drive?
Nope, it's the stock drive. I haven't had problems with any other games, though admittedly it's been a month or so since I played a game using the disc drive so that could potentially be the problem. I cleaned the disc off pretty well last night and will test it tonight. Hopefully that resolves the issue.
