Free run in Tales of the Abyss crippled the difficulty and made it wicked easy. I actually found party members were more of a nuisance to revive on higher difficulties because taking care of them alone was more reliable.
Nevertheless, I love it. Played the secret dungeon... not nearly as stimulating looking as the Symphonia secret dungeon, but the mid-boss is a pain in the ass.

meh... that comes second only to the smoking wolf in Vesperia... The fucking wolf is retarded. It has a fucking shark tail and a stupid accessory. What kind of animal fucking smokes? They just ran out of ideas and stuck a pipe in its mouth and a sword on its back that it can't possibly physically wield. Why? To be totally hip. HEY LOOK AT ME GUYS, I HAVE A BELT AND CHAIN HOOKED TO MY PENIS! I'M FUCKING AWESOME AND HIP! Which is exactly why I will never, ever use the dog in ToV. I'm using the dog for the very reason it smokes a pipe. Can't see that shit everyday... except in some crack addicts vivid imagination.... or Alice in Wonderland and/or English storybook.

Which have you done? (I is a 2/5)
Drinking Smoking Drugs Thieving One-Night-Stand
Feel free to add one I suppose; the list is fairly general, but I think covers basics.

On paper, IU is awesome, but tri-Ace always finds a way to disappoint me somehow. I find its usually...if not always in storyline. Almost all of their games have some strange ass design choices that I find baffling, but I find really fun regardless. I expect IU's going to be the same way. Or if not maybe I'll just be annoyed enough by the story, whichever! Quoting Eusis for no real reason but, did they ever explain how Infinite Undiscovery's battle system works? I remember watching a video or two of gameplay and it just kinda seemed like Secret of Mana meets Star Ocean 3 (or Valkyrie Profile 2, which I didn't like). SO3 meets FFXII. Sounds awesome. =)

I don't get all this hate for VP2. Especially its battle system. I thought it was genius! =/ A certainly large amount of time was put into it. And seemed like an appropriate next step to 3D-ing VP:L system. The only flaw I find most Tri-Ace games have in terms of battle systems, however, is mages usually become obsolete to melee fighters (who deal more damage in a shroter amount of time).

Woah... I heard he was in the hospital, but... yeah, off guard, like you said.
Weird year for this. Morgan Freeman is in an accident and divorces his wife. LeBouef gets into a car accident and damn near loses his pretty Hollywood hand. =/

Wow, the Japanese version apparently has dual language on the disc, but its inaccessible (or so I hear). Nevertheless, the ending and cutscenes have been ripped and are floating on the net. MINOR ENDING SPOILERSThe good guys win! =D
