oh enemies do the Earthbound thing and start running away from you once you're too strong

YAY! Love that mechanic. Anything to ditch random encounters or cut screen transition time from trash battles is fine by me.

I feel like I'm doing a bad job fusing

Lots of negative affinity spells here and there.

Also are the essences the only skills MC can learn?

Ah yes. The obligatory, "We got instant death moves, you're fucked" moment. I still remember in Nocturne when I got put to sleep and was like, "Um...this isn't so bad." NOPE

I probably should have went towards the Tokyo Tower abscess and see if there was a save point first

I always wonder what people who get attached to their demons in SMT do just grind one the entire way?
Ive always been partial to Jack Frost, and will only fuse him if its into Black Frost.

First boss down

He seemed appropriately difficult for a Level 14/15 party

Finished the second area.

This game is very good.

Officially extremely happy that Endwalker was delayed. Would be devestated if I had to put this down Friday morning.

Actually no, I didn't preorder until the day before because I expected I WOULDN'T be playing it.

Little miracles I guess.

Only real complaint so far (besides how bad it runs) is that flying enemies are never afraid of you and will always come at you no matter how low their level is.

This is especially frustrating once you get to the area with all the Anzu flying around because they're huge.

Battle music kinda disappoints me so far compared to 4

Though the song that you got when you fuck up real bad was good

I keep hearing how good it runs on emulators which 1) is pretty crazy switch emulators are that good already and 2) bums me out because it feels like I chose poorly by playing the game on official hardware. Should've released an actual Switch Pro, Nintendo!

I'd try to be more positive but I've had almost no time to play due to work. So yeah thank fuck Endwalker got delayed.

I definitely did not forget to put the 2020 GOTD Guru winner, azuarc in my sig!

Got my first ending.

Slightly annoyed and confused by a specific aspect of the promotion for this game.

Miyazu is not a character in this game. She has no purpose and never comes up again past the intro cutscene and the brief appearance in the fairy village. Almost never mentioned either. No idea why she was given the same prerelease treatment as the rest of the cast.

Started playing a few days ago. I made it to the second big area last night, and I have to say this is the most I've enjoyed exploring in an RPG since Xenoblade 2. It's great how rewarding it is. This second place is so dense (and red) that I'm sure I'm gonna miss a buttload of Miman here, lol. I thought I was thorough in the desert, but when I went back in to finish quests and get more relics, I ended up finding three more.

All regular endings seen. Watched the true ending on YouTube since that requires NG+ and that won't be happening anytime soon.

I know IMDB says Regi Davis portrays Goko, but that is such a "Keith David" sound to his voice, you'd forgive me for being confused the whole fucking time.

Her stat base is hilarious too.

Been a busy few weeks with the trophy contest. Finally found the time to finish the first map. Looks like the real story is happening now.
