Aye. I haven't started playing it again yet, but I absolutely cannot wait to start it up. Since nobody ever talks about the game, I'm pretty sure I haven't heard any of the music since playing it for the first time... I'm sure I've forgotten the entire story except for the main plot points as well. Going to be a fun nostalgia trip...

One of the only things I remember about this game is the fact that they take the "timed hit" system and make it completely unbearable.


You're trying to do a NORMAL ATTACK?

Okay press X
Now Square
Don't press anything at this part or you will be MESS UP.
Now Triangle



EVERY TIME YOU WANT TO ATTACK. Oh you don't want to deal with all the BULL**** involved with normal attacks? Wear this accessory but it will cut your damage to useless levels.

That is literally the first thing I think of when it comes to this game. Maybe it isn't as bad as I'm remembering and it deserves another shot, but I am incredibly wary.

I didn't even understand the Addition system until at least halfway through disc 2... maybe disc 3 (there were 4 right?). I thought that X was the only button to press.. so I could do all the two-button additions, but always messed up as soon as the variations came. Once I figured out how they actually worked, I loved the hell out of it.

so I got a love-hate relationship with it

as someone who literally was just playing this game (and writing a fantastic playthrough topic) I can safely say that additions are not as complicated as you remember, FD

it is literally just pressing x at the right time and OCCASIONALLY it will throw in a circle in there. it doesn't use triangle or square or anything, and the circles only every once in awhile.

Additions are easy once you practice them a bit. Those ones with the sliiiightly delayed hits can be annoying as hell though.

What? It isn't the fact that they are hard to do.

It's the fact that you have to do them EVERY time you want to attack something.

I'm generally too lazy to follow through with playthrough topics and they always end up purging, but I might as well make an attempt on this one just out of respect. Was the first game I ever played on my PS1. Time to see how it holds up.

I just got bored with Skyrim, so now is a good a time as any to start.

I might go through Limestone Cave before going to bed. Hmm.

Oh btw, when I installed LoD on my PS3 and started playing it for the first time, the game had a save file on it. It started in Seles, skipping the scene where Shana is kidnapped, and I escape from the dragon. I thought that was weird.

Oh hey, I just finished the Limestone Cavern too. Scrapping the idea of a playthrough topic though. While I was playing, I totally remembered why I hate doing those things... it makes gaming feel like a chore. Because I know that I can have some fun sitting down and playing it, but then I'll have to sit down at the computer for a while and type out my thoughts on everything. I'd much rather prefer some kind of... General LoD Discussion Topic where I could just post random thoughts and jokes as interesting things happen. I love reading people's playthroughs, but it's just too much pressure for me.

I just wanna say one more thing about the addition complaints

while yeah there are some that are like 6 hits, you don't have to actually do them if you don't want to. they aren't THAT much better than the additions with less hits, and the game isn't that hard. you can use an easier addition for like 250% instead of 300% damage.
