I feel like the rare blades get rarer as you keep getting them. At first 20 common cores got me 3-4 rare blades, now I go through 40 and I'm lucky if I get one. Is there a way to farm legendary cores?

I just beat a boss in Ch 4 and then the screen faded to black and put me back outside the arena like I failed it.

Hello this is a mad at videogames post. I’m real mad at chapter 4 the abandoned factory. I spent over two hours running around the same stupid rooms trying to figure out how to open the giant door. I think (dear god) I finally found the room with the button in it but the enemies inside keep killing me and then it spawns me so far away. And I can’t just beeline for it because the dumb aggroed enemies stay aggroed even when I’m on the third floor and they’re on the first. So sick of this stupid area, and only having two party members for plot reasons.

I was overleveled for that part of the game and enemies didn't even aggro if I rubbed against them. I'm kinda thankful after all these horror stories  .Also I enjoy playing Tiger Tiger but I'm not really seeing much of a boon from it. I'm getting ether crystals and whatnot so it feels like progress in that regard but I'm pulling up a million chips I'm never going to use and I can't tell if the loot is actually improving all that much or not. I heard this is the only way to get the tech manuals for Poppi but I haven't pulled up a single one yet and I've played a lot of this dumb minigame.

I mean, on the bright side, you can torch those extra parts for Poppi for more ether. Most of it's not a great deal, but it's part of your reward pool, anyway. Took a bit of doing, but I got Sheba and Vale on the 5th character, so that should be fun. Vale makes Pyra's jiggle physics look downright reasonable.

Well, at least I got chain attacks before I got overdrive in X. Cancelling autoattacks is a bit more tricky when you’re playing in portable mode with the sound off. Had to zoom in lol

The Factory was loving awful, but at least what comes after it is pretty alright. I legit can’t believe someone play tested that part and thought it was good, though.

TurnipFritter posted:Cancelling auto-attacks with Four's default blade seems almost impossible. I don't know if you already got an answer to this, but Four's attack string is a lot like Rex's attack string with the knuckles where it looks like 5-6 different attacks but is actually only 3 distinct pieces. The proper cancel timings for Four's string is after the second downward slash, the after she does the poke into sideways arm spread thing, then after the final upward slash.

I don't know if I'm glad I saved the beastly core for the 5th party member or sorry I waited so long to open it. That blade is amazing (Earth/attack, if anyone is wondering).Caidin posted:I'm in chapter 3 and fighting a huge nerd.

I just fought a boss and the cutscene showed me actually beating them. I thought "finally!" and then another guy came and kicked my rear end in a cutscene.

Eh it's good for a few more hours of gameplay but so far it seems to be all about finding and killing level 100+ dudes. Waiting to see what the DLC brings because there's a few obvious loose story ends like wtf happened to Addam that they're likely saving for it.

I had 0 issues with the factory level. The door closes and then theres a cutscene where they pan to a guy standing in front of a control panel with a clear shot of the path you need to follow to find him. And that happens twice and thats the whole dungeon

I died a couple times to the control room head muckety muck, but that’s it.

It wasn't bad, but I can see people being disoriented by it because of how straight forward every area in the game had been up to that point.

It's the worst part of the game. Bad UI aside stop making it seem like I've lost fights when I thrashed the person. It's just bad game design.

And that happens twice and thats the whole dungeon I remembered that cutscene but I took a break after watching it I guess and completely lost track of wherever I was supposed to go. AFAIK there’s no way to re-trigger it.

Neddy Seagoon posted:They're all pretty solid localization changes really. The only thing that kinda gets lost is the Chinese Four Symbols motif with the party, and it's not exactly something beyond a general reference. They shouldn't have changed the titan names, all of those work fine and are more memorable than the English ones.

I'm in mid chapter 4 and have been traveling around doing side quests and all of a sudden my load times got huge. Opening a core crystal is giving 15-30 sec load times before the blade appears. I'm playing on a physical cart. Is this a known issue? I've closed the game and will reopen fresh later, but it's the first time this has happened in many hours of play.

I feel like I have a real unclear understanding of what the cloud sea is. Like at times it seems like they are up in the air and the cloud sea is literally just clouds and all the titans are flying, other times it seems like it's water under like a foot of fog. Or water under hundreds of feet of clouds? Now they are at a mountain made out of clouds?

Pretty sure this isn't how it would work, but I think the clouds are just dense/fantasy enough that they have enough water content to swim in and effectively be an ocean beneath the surface.

So I got the 4th character in the party and drat does it feel good to not be restricted by poppi bullshit. She might have a tiny bit less health but I feel like she can tank just as well and somehow even better most of time. Like she blocks/dodges more often. Totally digging her tanking style. So how do you guys split roles within party? Do you just have all 3 of the same role for a particular character or do you do different combos?

It’s a shame the interface is so bad i spend so much time going to the menu every couple of minutes when I just want to just go do something. These affinity kill x ones are so bad if you have to back track through areas if the trust level wasn’t unlocked.

In addition to different collection icons on the map, a bestiary that would allow you to mark a monster to find would be good

Getting a little nervous about this trust mechanic because I’m almost 40 hours in and I have no idea what it is. Should I be sending my extra rare blades off on merc missions? Should I be sending the same blades over and over or mix it up with different ones each time? Also can you really not do multiple missions at a time? Should I just max out the number of blades I send regardless of how many it recommends?

Also yeah always send out the maximum number of Blades. If they have the listed recommended skills they'll decrease the time the mission takes. Even if they don't have the skill you get trust on every blade you send out

I really wish they would turn the music down in cutscenes, I can’t hear poo poo. Also, can party members randomly use specials lower than the next seal skill level, or does the buildup eventually time out? I tried several times to go 1->2->3 in one of the early boss battles but it always got invalidated before I could hit 3.
