Having the speed stat set high enough to make all the poses and stances that your characters make seem really fucking slow is also massively overkill.

The only things you need to learn in this game are Zell's Duels and how to manipulate Triple Triad's rules.

Played some Dragon Quest 8.  Despite the fact that I really didn't like the rest of the series, I'm mesmerized by this game.  Already about 6 hours in and I just got to the Abbey after recruiting Jessica.  Level 5 really knows how to make a great game.

And is the Hero supposed to get a pitifully small amount of Skill points per level up?  Yangus already has TONS of skill points, but my hero can barely manage 2 or 3 per level.  And is Jessica suppose to just completely blow ass when you first get her?  I spend more time healing her and protecting her then it's worth to have her in the party at all.

As Mesh said, Jessica will definitely get better once she gains the use of whips and staves. Also if you think Hero is bad in the Skill Point department wait until you get Angelo. Right now though Yangus is just super strong at the moment (especially if you know what you're doing with the alchemy system). He'll taper off at about the same time that Hero and Jessica will get going (around the same time as you get Angelo).

But I thought eroge were supposed to have incest and furries!

Fei/Citan bad ending: they get caught by Citan's wifey and Elly and they exact their revenge by both turning into Miang then kicking their asses

The XXXenogears eroge!  Total carnage!  I love it!

Fixed like Fei/Citan will be.

Watched episode 14 of FMA:B yesterday. For you stragglers wondering what's the point of this version now's the time to find out.

Code:
The divergence between the old anime and the new one has finally occurred, and damn, if the showdown between Wrath and Greed wasn't awesome. Much better than Greed's throwdown with Ed in the old version.

Plus, the Queen of the Netherworld has, hands down, the greatest boobs in any game, anime, movie, manga, or otherwise not real––ever. Too bad she's a giant fucking bitch.

Too bad that she's nothing but bone beneath those dirty pillows.


Anyways BtB has made a complete 180 since my last update. I knew that getting my cursed character decursedifiyed would make my life easier but now I'm sittin' in the Imperial Throne like it was nothing. Too bad I never saw that Monk go by (two frontline fighters rock but three fighters would help me demolish everything that looked at me funny). :(


Anyway, beat that one mission in FM1 with the SAMs. Finally. Still trying to figure out what a good tradeoff between defenseness and speed is. I guess lighter mechs move faster, so I MIGHT want to remove missile launchers from some people, or switch over to those Missile Launcher Arms. It looks like the current mission is one where I'd benefit from being an immobile wall of bullets though.

There's no need for launcher arms. Legs are the sole factor on how far you move per turn. And weight is there so you don't go overboard in loading out your mechs. Engine output only determines what your weight capacity will be and you can augment that with backpacks (and certain legs too).


Also finally decided to tackle the next story mission in FFTA2.

... and then perhaps ending with a WTF is this shit! RPG (or something to that effect).

But we already have Knights in the Nightmare!

I meant by Dept. Heaven standards. KitN is slightly above average in that regard.

Now why the hell would you as a designer show off a chainsaw of all things as a weapon to DISNEY execs? :P

Cuz' Chainsaws can kill god. Duh. :P

I wonder if bald women would appear more in Western games.

That being said, then the women that look like men in Western games would be definitely true!

Either way its still better than men that look like women in Eastern games.

I've only played Riviera which is a decent game but my god I'm like grinding for about 10 minutes after every other battle. The one awesome thing about this series is that they're probably the most innovative RPGs out there. And since they've done a Dating-Sim RPG, a Strategy RPG, a Shoot'em Up RPG, and (counting the one in development hell) an MMO RPG. I suspect that the next game will probably be an Action/Adventure RPG, followed up by a Puzzle RPG, then a Racing RPG, probably a FPS RPG, and then perhaps ending with a WTF is this shit! RPG (or something to that effect).

-- Sword of Mana, since you like Secret of Mana, enjoy your Final Fantasy Adventure remake.

Ugh. No man. No.

We're trying to recommend good games to him.

Xenogears... Yea a bit I think.
Code:
Fei and Elly have sex right?

It's a safe bet, yeah, but you don't see/hear anything except that when they're talking the next morning she doesn't seem to be wearing clothes. (Not that you see anything other than bare shoulders, I think.)

That doesn't really matter though since you get the full frontal during the game's ending sequence.

About 12 hours in on BtB. After crusading around the countryside for the nth time I finally get to take a warp shortcut for once (escapelv1 and guiding branches aside). Also I'm now rid of that annoying curse.

You know I would pay good money for the 'shrooms used in the making of this movie.
