You know I really like this game, but it's disheartening after finishing a main story chapter to know that I have to now pay another annoying load of debt off and, because of my gamer ocd, do the next batch of 15 bear asses quests. Oh well.

Gamblin' son. I made enough to pay off my entire debt in ~2 hours, less time then I would have spent grinding bear asses.

Its good to have Rowen around to balance out the depressing aspects of the game's main story.

New Game+ should've given you Rollo as a playable character a la Repede. He ties with Repede for best Tales mascot in my opinion.

I'm disappointed that some of the Devils arms in this game seem to look a lot like ones from Graces f. The Symphonia, Rebirth and Tempest ones stick out most of all.

I'm having fun with the game so far, but my only real huge complaint is that cutscenes move forward like a powerpoint presentation-- they'll never stay on the same frame for more than a few seconds, characters will be in a wildly different pose from moment to moment... no fluidity, basically. It's really jarring, and makes it feel a bit cheap.

The only thing I have issues with is the rediculous pop-in in towns. There's no reason half that stuff takes as long to load as it does.

I'm still finishing it, and Xillia has the secondary problem of the character motions taking so long in cutscenes, so if you skipped the dialogue they still took another 10 seconds to wave their arm.

OneDeadman posted:Gold/Silver dice don't help when you get dealt a pair in High-Low It feels like the better hand you get the more it wants to gently caress you over in high-low. I've been going forever with a three of a kind or a double pair but as soon as I get something good I lose on the first hi-low.

Endorph posted:Nah, it does feel worse here. To be fair, they cranked this out in like a year. Would it kill Namco to actually take some time and finish a Tales game for once, polish and all? And I mean without having to come back a year later with an updated re-release to complete it. But really, I'm enjoying the game so far for what it is. It's definitely not up to the standard of the better Tales games, and the debt mechanic is a painfully obvious way to draw out what's looking to be a pretty short game, but the combat is fun and I liked Xillia's cast enough that I'm willing to put up with Ludger's autism to get some more time with them. I'll just straight up say I'm enjoying the individual character chapters for the Xillia cast far more than Ludger's inane plotline.

New costumes seem to be up on the PSN store. Don't expect much. All we seem to have gotten this week are the rest of the sports costumes? I didn't notice them listed last week, but it says they were released on the 19th. So who knows.

I was hoping for the Sheena costume for Muzet. All the sports costumes were up on day one though? If you're going through the shop link in the game, well somebody goofed that up so it only has 15 listings. All the sports costumes are available if you go through the store regularly. Of course you could be referring to Europe in which case don't mind me.

So I accidentally started Chapter 15 before checking if there were any character missions available after 14 since I was used to having to make a debt payment before the character missions expired. Were there any, and if so have I missed them forever, because my last save is several hours back?

SpazmasterX posted:Getting reeeeeeeeeal tired of boss enemies and their instant anytime-I-want unbreakable barriers. Yeah if there's on issue I have with this game, its that you have no idea whatsoever when you're capable of getting a decent combo on a boss. I guess it's somewhat necessary since it's super easy to just combo the hell out of anything since everyone has at least 2 super good ways to pick up fallen enemies and not being restricted to x-x-x-basic-arcane makes combos pretty good. As an Aside though, Finishing up this game has made me realize that if Legendia ever gets remade, they should probably totally steal the plot structure of this game sans the 20 million debt.

I did the same thing and the Characters that would've had missions during that time (Muzet and Milla. Maybe Leia or Alvin too.) were still open to me. After I finished them they would go to the location for their next mission and it would continue as usual. I know that I probably missed one or two bonus scenes after the climax of that chapter because Rowen/Elize and Muzet/Gaius had them while Jude/Milla and Leia/Alvin didn't. Anyway, anybody know where that Siennabronc monster is hiding? Its currently the only Elite I have left to fight.

RMZXAnarchy posted:Just went there, nothing. It doesn't roam, but it has a chance to spawn in a couple of locations whenever you enter an area where it can spawn. It shows up in the northeast part of Xagut Floodmeadow's Southeastern region and you can easily just go between the north east exit and you'll be able to see it when it eventually spawns.
