Which is weird as Smash 4 is probably the best overall Shulk model. Prison Island is a fantastic sequence that gets even better on a replay. --- It's Reyn Time. |

I'm still in the early goings so maybe things will change, but if a big plot point here is to get me to feel bad about Fordola, it's uhhhhhh....not gonna work. I'm siding with the mob here.I don't think it was a scene meant to make you 'side' with anyone, really. Just giving you more perspective so you can understand her lot in life better. Whether or not that naturally leads into sympathy is up to each individual player. --- It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato 03/06/21 3:12:10 PM #150 | UshiromiyaEva posted... OK SOIt's my personal pet theory that they diverted budget to the third Ivalice raid. There's so much love and care (and visuals) put into it that it makes the Stormblood extra trials and 8-man raids look paltry by comparison. In terms of aesthetic, mechanics, and just plain hype factor, Supporting my theory is that literally every major head of the development team is a massive, self-professed FFT fanboy/girl. --- It's Reyn Time. |
Topic | Playing Xenoblade for the first time |
KamikazePotato 03/06/21 12:24:37 AM #171 | The old Xenoblade had a better art style - from the comparison picture you can tell that color tone of the original is darker and less 'anime smooth'. I definitely prefer the original in this regard, although the Mechon in DE look really good. The quality of the faces is mixed - I think the only one that gets a clear upgrade is Melia. Fiora's original face is iffy, but her DE face isn't very good either (her eyes are HUGE for some reason). Shulk is not only a downgrade but looks like an entirely different person at times. DE is the product I'd recommend to people for many, many reasons, but there was something a little something lost in the feel of the game in the transition from original to remake. None of this is worth giving up how the environments look in upgraded HD, or the numerous gameplay improvements. --- It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato 03/05/21 11:59:47 PM #129 | UshiromiyaEva posted... Yeah but he turns into what I assume is some FFXII thing!Duma (what Argath transforms into) is one of the Lucavi named in FFT, although it doesn't make an appearance onscreen. It isn't mentioned at all in FF12. The entire concept of the Lucavi - people transforming into monsters when using a magic stone - is tied significantly more to FFT than FF12. The FF12-only Espers are basically just cameos, and there's not very many of them. --- It's Reyn Time. |

If the mobs take a decent amount of time to die then you can rack up damage like nobody's business, but if they die quickly you do like 1/3 of your max potential. Really like the way it plays against bosses though. --- It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato 03/02/21 2:17:50 PM #55 | Yeah the MP/TP management kind of stuff you're mentioning is stuff I hated. Relying on an ally to keep your resources up so you can use your moves felt awful - I shouldn't have to hope the Ninja remembers to use Goad in order for me to be able to keep pressing buttons. Something like Palisade is better though. --- It's Reyn Time. |

I'm personally still annoyed no one bought Bleed 2. Anyway, I distinctly remember getting Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney on release day. Also got Nier 1 shortly after it released because I liked TheDarkId's Drakengard LPs. --- It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato 03/02/21 3:00:40 AM #37 | That quick instant heal will save your life. Ranged Physical DPS are generally considered the easiest role to play due to the freedom of movement you mentioned. They deal with mechanics more easily than any other role type. As a result, their optimal damage is a fair bit lower than the other DPS roles...which honestly barely matters in the grand scheme of things. In casual content, enrage timers (a.k.a. mechanics that kill everyone if a certain amount of damage isn't dealt in a specific period of time) are rare, and when they do pop up, are designed to be able to be cleared by people who aren't very good so that everyone who plays FF14 can see the story. In hardcore content, enrage timers become a much bigger deal, but harsh, party-wiping mechanics become an even bigger deal, and the flexibility of a Dancer or Machinist or Bard is reeeeally nice to have in any team comp, cause you can't deal damage when you're dead. --- It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato 03/01/21 1:57:44 PM #18 | Dark Knight storyline is in the top 1% of writing in the entire game, not just side quests. Conversely, when I was leveling White Mage, at one point I told my friend "all I've been doing is going around purifying the taint. Look, I'm going to talk to this guy, I bet he's going to say something unimportant then go tell me to purify more taint." He did. My general class quest storyline ranking from what I've played so far would be: Top: Dark Knight Great: Rogue Mostly Good: Ninja, Machinist Not Bad: Red Mage, Pugilist, Samurai (50-60), Gunbreaker Sub-Par: Arcanist, Summoner, Marauder, Warrior, Lancer, Archer, Thaumaturge Bad: Samurai (60-70), Conjurer, White Mage --- It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato 03/01/21 1:43:07 PM #16 | In my opinion the individual class quest storylines tend to end on a solid note at Level 70, and anything beyond that would have felt like artificially extending those narratives. --- It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato 03/01/21 1:29:39 PM #11 | Healing is an entirely different ballgame, but tanking in non-Extreme/Savage content is basically just like playing a melee DPS while getting to ignore some mechanics. You could start tanking whenever and be fine. The only melee DPS I feel comfortable writing a quick guide for is Ninja, so if someone else wants to chime in about Samurai, feel free. --- It's Reyn Time. |

You've never given a strong enough argument as to why we're not ACTUALLY conservative.I assume what he means by that is that most people will express positive views of socialism until those views are framed as being socialist, after which the same people will immediately reject the policy they previously said was a great idea --- It's Reyn Time. |
