RPGFan Super Game Journal Turbo II - The New Challengers

[John]

I played some Persona 4 today.  Finished the Void Quest dungeon, spent a lot of time screwing around.

[Dincrest]

I didn't play Persona 4 yesterday, but I actually went to an old save in Eternal Eden and did some of the optional boss battles.

In Persona 4, I'm getting my butt whipped in the 5th chapter/floor of Void Quest.  My party all have levels in the mid-30s, but the random encounters are decimating us.  I really don't want to grind.

[John]

Neal:  My party was level 43 when I beat the boss of that dungeon - I was 35 when I first hit level 1.  You may need to grind for a little bit either on the first two floors or in the club.

I'm working through FFXI. Currently have my MNK/WAR combo sitting at 26/14, and am building up my WHM/BLM combo. I'm a slow one, but hey, I spend most of my time fishing or clothcrafting.

Otherwise, I've been playing a lot of Super Street Fighter II HD and the occasional game of REZ HD.

Played Persona 4 for quite a while today. Got to 9/1, and I've almost maxed the Magician S. Link. The void dungeon wasn't so bad, I guess. Black Frost was a godsend, though.

As for Luminous Arc, I'm on Chapter... 15? The story is still shit, but for some reason I am still compelled to play. Ah well.

You're going to have to. I remember I was at around level 50 when I went to that area.

[Superflat]

I beat that one with the Gears and the War. And the 2.

I've also been playing some SSFTIIHD and getting super-raped by Arcade Mode. On easy. I think I just don't get the game. I wish I did, but it'll probably be a long time until I beat Arcade.

[Ramza]

Been leveling Summoner in FFXI, currently at 59.

Played through both Sora and Riku's quests in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories (the PS2 port). Good, good stuff.

Also screwed around with Virtual Console RPGs over the Holidays. Love them classics!

Bought Left 4 Dead today, it's fucking awesome.

Pissed around in WoW as well

[Esper_Crusader]

360 - Rock Band 2 and just started Mass Effect(again)
PS3 - MGS4. I just met up with Naomi. Valkyria Chronicles; I just started chapter 5.  I also just started game of Folklore.

I really have to pick a game and go with it.:P

Wilson, I just fused me a Black Frost.  This is definitely a 5-star persona at this point in the game.  Oh yeah, one of the Arcana Chance things changed my Setanta's Megido to Megidola, but since Setanta isn't that good beyond Megido I fused a pretty sweet Samael with the Megidola and a Mamudo skill that got transferred over changed to Mahama.  Go fusion forecast!  

I'm still grinding in Void Quest.  Main's level 39 but the others are level 35-37.  I'm waiting for school to start up again so I can work on some S-links.  I know the strength (soccer team) one is the lamest S-link in the history of S-links, but I'm rank 9 on it and want to finish it off so I can dedicate more time to some others.

Well, Fallout 3's end game officially sucks.  The level cap sucks, the main quest sucks, the ending sucks.  Next time through, I'm not even gonna do the main quest and just roam the land. :P

[daschrier]

Lots of people complain about the level cap in Fallout, but the original Fallout had the same thing.

[Eusis]

A level cap can be more pesky if you can reasonably hit it with normal play. I was pretty far from Fallout 1's cap when I played through the game so it was a non-issue, and the same thing holds true for the countless JRPGs I've gone through. Only recall hitting the level cap in Tales of Phantasia and Persona 3 when it comes to JRPGs, and Knights of the Old Republic outside of that.

I'm kind of settling down to Fallout 3 and Prince of Persia. I'm not bothering with The Last Remnant until either the 120 gig hard drive comes in or Fallout 3 starts going unplayed. Prince of Persia will be done soon enough though, after which I'll go to either Dead Space or Silent Hill: Homecoming. I'm liking both, but Dead Space, despite predictable scares, keeps me in suspense just enough that I can only get myself to play in short intervals, and Silent Hill stupidly forgot to let me invert the damn camera. At least they got it right for aiming.

[daschrier]

About 55 hours in ToV, near the end, but I suspect there will be more dungeons for me to do.

Started up SO for the PSP.
Does every Star Ocean game have an extremely long drawn out opening? I couldn't wait to actually start playing the game.
