Dylan and Rufus are the only main character that are actually better than the einherjar and even then, it takes a while before they become good (Dylan's Full Swing and Rufus' Killing Thorn)
The saddest thing in the whole game is how badly Lenneth Creator sucks. She is so effing bad...
It's funny that in the game 'Valkyrie Profile', a party of 4 Valkyrie is really pathetic (Hrist is descent... but everything else... urk)
That and the fact that einherjar don't make for the ext like
Snagglepuss the major characters do. I'm at chapter 5 and all I have left are Alicia, Rufus, and that one einherjar you can only recruit during chapter 4 or above. If you didn't know it was coming (like I did) then have fun with a two man party for a chapter.
But yeah, Tri-Ace game. Next you'll tell me that spellcasters suck and that most game breaking methods require far more effort to pull off then they're worth.
Also, beat Ys Origin. Now to beat it again with Hugo and that other guy. (Also to beat that one boss in the fire dungeon. Goddamn, I wish I could skip cutscenes.)
