ApplesandOranges posted:Too much choice can throw people off. When I first played Skyrim it was almost paralyzing because there was so much you could do - do main quests. Do lots of side quests. Gathering. Exploring. When it's too open, people that can't make snap decisions (that faction sounds better, or I prefer axes to maces because they swing faster) get frustrated. I've actually heard this a few times from my friends. I never understood it myself. I tell them that there is no wrong way to go and just try everything, but its like trying to get a homeless guy to invest $50,000. They just don't think that way. It's....odd.

The White Dragon posted:Yes, as my twelve-year-old self learned the hard way Same here....but I was 18... I think I had like a max of 40 spells junctioned. I would still cast them. And I would just throw what ever where ever with out thinking about it. The game started getting hard so I leveled up to try to make it easier. Never played the card game, never refined magic. I had to beat Ultimicia by letting her hit me with her big move and then throwing the ONE Holy War trial I had and hope that it worked. Then do nothing but spam Zell and Squall's limit breaks. No idea why the hell I didn't get it the first time through, but what ever. Game kinda sucked anyways. Now 9. That was a game!

So could any one spoil the plot of Lightning Returns for me? Or point me to a previous post with a run down? I need it to spoil some one in my fantasy football league...its a long stupid story.

Awesome! Thanks guys. I'll show this rear end in a top hat how a petulant man child reacts to being knocked out of the make believe playoffs! Says there's nothing I could ruin for him, but then says he's really looking forward to LR....thats a lot of bad decisions right there. I'll show him, I'll show them all.

Pureauthor posted:Kuja blew up a planet and succeeded 100% in his schemes. It was only because Garland had hosed him over from the moment of his creation that his plans unravelled. And he helped his immortal brother in the end. Not to mention Trance Kuja actually looks kinda bad rear end. Kuja was an awesome character ruined by his character design. Basically the opposite of Sephiroth.

They even made him trip and slowly get up for dramatic effect. It just really drove home that classic Japanese folk tale of the robot puppet heroically sacrificing itself to be crushed by a magically shrinking temple that also serves to call down the holy fires from the heavens. Just simple storytelling done right.

Clarste posted:Japan has a lot of weird specialty "breads" that are more like sandwiches, or even pastries. They use the term broadly in a way that doesn't work in English. I was gonna say. If the scene where everyone was waiting in line and the school ran out of "bread," I'd think the game was taking place in like siege era Stalingrad or something.

Also 13 didn't have stores/towns/inns/interesting NPC characters. Its a poo poo show and hands down the worst of the series in my opinion. Its remains literally the only Final Fantasy I was not able to force myself to finish. And I one time finished FF3 DS because I was sick in bed for a couple days.

I don't get the "the story is confusing" angle that people take with 13. I was never confused, just bored. Bored and didn't care and hated all the characters. And didn't like the setting. And thought the battle system was interesting until I got a game over when my controlled character died, thus making the "life" spell completely useless except for healing the 1 character in your party of 3 that is able to die and be rezz'd. Ugh, that game was such trash. Ha, I was just about to type that it was the last FF I played, but since its the last one they released I guess that goes with out saying, huh?

Finally Fantasy has awesome set pieces. Story and character wise it's a jumbled mess. If you like breaking battle systems over your knee then you'll love it.

I know the cat is a robot, but is the big white thing another robot or just an extension of the cat robot? I'm starting to believe they didn't think the design of this spybot all the way through.
