papercup 11/29/18 5:47:05 PM #178 | ....I climbed the Rock of Ravatogh again to fight the Zu. When I reached the camp I ate a Behemoth steak. Then I went and started the encounter. First I scanned it, then I activated the armiger, then I used the warp-strike. The warp-strike broke its beak and staggered it. Then the armiger killed it in about 10 seconds. I maybe went a little overboard with my choice of food. XD Whatever, I can always get more Behemoth tenderloins. I figured a level 67 4-star hunt mark would require a little more preparation than an average fight. lol But with that I am a rank 7 hunter. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 |

Bartz or Firion are probably stronger than Cloud If we're going by raw damage numbers, I'm pretty sure Tidus is actually one of the strongest FF characters. It's really easy to make him hit the true 99,999 damage limit. The Warrior of Light on certain Jobs, like Samurai or even Black Mage can do even more damage than that in a single hit, ignoring the Limit Break 3. In Eureka, using the "Catastrophe" strat you can hit the damage limit of 999,999 on multiple targets at once. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 |

papercup 11/26/18 11:23:34 PM #148 | Yeah, I might as well. Just no idea when I'll be able to play it. Anyway, got lots done in FFXV! Went from Chapter 3 to 7 today. So either there's going to be some really long chapters later, or the main story is actually on the short side. I'll be honest, the story is actually really good at making you want to see what's next. The whole "hey, you're a badass, you're going to be king, you're going to marry Lunafreya, you're going to save the world" is a pretty good motivator to move the story along. And there's some pretty epic moments like So I keep thinking what if they took this open world design, and applied to like an old school high fantasy, sword and sorcery, save the crystals from the four fiends and some big bad cosmic evil style FF game. Would that work? I don't know, they'd have to build a new battle system that actually works to pull something like that off. I'd like them to do job classes in a game like that, but that would be a huge undertaking to pull all of that off. Just something to consider. I doubt that's the direction the series will take. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 |

It doesn't go for very much on eBay, and like I said earlier I don't really have time at the moment to play another big RPG. I might just sit on it and play it this summer or something.

papercup 11/26/18 7:26:44 PM #144 | That being said, I always hear Vesperia was one of the better ones. If it goes on sale really cheap I might pick it up. Speaking of sales, I've been on the fence all weekend about buying either Monster Hunter World, or Final Fantasy XII Zodiac Age in the steam sale. I'm that weirdo that actually kind of liked XII, and I'd be very much interested in playing a different version of it. MHW I keep hearing is awesome, but Smash Bros.

papercup 11/26/18 7:19:39 PM #143 | Entity13 posted... https://imgur.com/7dtclle lol Entity13 posted... In other news, I am slowly climbing back into playing more Tales of Berseria. I will say that, compared to the other Tales games I've played, it has a small element akin to Metroidvania in that you need items or abilities gained later to go back and pick up other chests in older areas. Other Tales games were like "Oh, you're done with the story for this area? You should have collected everything already." It's kind of nice, though, even if the monsters don't really get any stronger. I've never really been a big Tales fan. I played Phantasia, Symphonia, and of the Abyss. And liked them all fine enough. About 4 or so years ago I played through Xillia, and I can't honestly say I liked it. It was okay, I played through the whole thing, but it didn't really leave a lasting impression on me. I actually don't really remember anything about it. I just don't really have much a desire to play the newer Tales games. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 |

papercup 11/26/18 3:46:55 PM #138 | Most JRPGs seem to making leaps to modern technology, in a really big way, but for some reason, FF is just struggling to find an identity the last 10-15 years or so. Even though FFXV sold millions and millions of copies, it apparently wasn't enough to continue development of DLC. I really hope for FFXVI they take a long hard look at what isn't working in modern FF, and cut out the fat, and try to reestablish trust with the fans. Also, #firstworldproblems I pre-ordered the new FFXIV lore book months ago. It released on Saturday, my account wasn't charged, I didn't receive any email about shipping info or anything like that. So I contacted support and they told me they didn't have enough copies to cover every pre-order. :P Isn't that the point of pre-ordering? To gauge how much to print? Whatever Hopefully that means I'm getting a copy of the second printing. Whenever the hell that is. But, that WAS going to be my Christmas present, but it seems that isn't happening now, so instead I bought Ultimania Archive Vol.1 and 2. so that should be a very nice alternative. And I didn't play FFXV yesterday because I had a migraine all day, but I'm feeling better, I'm done with work and have a few free hours so I'll do that now. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 |

papercup 11/24/18 7:11:06 PM #134 | Finally got back to XV. So, I unlocked Rank 5 hunts, and continued with the story again. Went to get the sword behind the waterfall. When I play more tomorrow I'll do a few more sidequests and really get going with the story mode. So there are things about this game I really do like. I actually like some of the art design. The buildings and cars all look nice and bulky. There's good use of color and shapes. Not everything looks that great though, like NPCs in towns and cities look unfinished and are hilarious to watch in the backgrounds of cutscenes. Also, I generally like the way enemies look, but I wish there was more variety in enemy types. I just did 4 hunts in a row where I fought gigantoads, and I was kind of sick of it by the end, they're easy to deal with, and none of them really did anything to me. There are things about the battle system I like. Like switching weapons mid combo, using my allies abilities to extend combos, all that good stuff. It's just, as I said in previous posts, not all the enemy types are well designed or fun to fight. But, also like I said in previous posts, I like some of the dungeons. Like Castlemark Tower I think for the most part is a well designed dungeon, except for the end bit where you keep going into the basement to fight tougher waves of enemies. Oh, and I actually like the four main characters, though Prompto still annoys me some. Every time you turn the game on, it says "A Final Fantasy for fans and new-comers alike" or something to that effect, and I honestly hope this wasn't anybody's first FF game. lol I've spent enough time with it, and dealt with enough of the frustrations and weird design choices that if I had to rank it right now, it would be right down there with 2 and 8, but slightly above those. It's actually not a terrible game, it's okay, quality is all over the place, but I wouldn't say it's a good game. And it's definitely not a FF for fans OR new-comers lol. I don't know who this game is for. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 |

Imagine if a sportscasters saw football fan dressed in a jersey and facepaint, and they didn't know what they were seeing and thought they were a pervert. I'm not particularly into cosplay, it's not my thing at all, but I understand the reasons people do it. This guy seems to think the entire FF fandom is some weird kink thing, and he's really insulting about it too. And he clearly doesn't know anything about the game, and instead focused on ERP and brothels, something that only a very small subset of the playerbase participates in.

papercup 11/20/18 12:25:43 AM #126 | But this game has a lot of problems. The camera is horrendous. It gets caught on walls all the time, the open areas have a lot of trees and bushes that get in the way often. There are enemies that are just not fun to fight, either because in groups they're frustrating to fight, or their attacks animations seem lacking, or the tells aren't clear enough. Or the attack will lock on to an enemy you're not looking at, or can't even see sometimes.The battle system is just lacking all around. But, I actually like some of the dungeons, and some of them are seamlessly integrated into the world, and have branching paths and stuff like that. Needs more puzzles though. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 |
