Zenostein posted:What a stunningly rear end in a top hat password system. Umm, several games use "clues" to solve "riddles". I'm not sure what you're getting at, unless you mean the game didn't imply very well that it's a riddle. There may/may not be failure dialogue that helps you along with it. Honestly I have no idea if such a thing exists. Dastardly posted:I completely forgot that consumables only stack up to 15 until you buy the "stack to 99" option for ng+ This wasn't as much of a problem for me with usable items as it was for ingredients. I had the habit of cooking after every battle via the shortcuts (which you guys should be doing btw, that or change the thread tag). I'd just run out of food way too quickly. After about half a dungeon I've used all my eggs or some other ingredient common to several dishes.

Derpes posted:Lots of info on Fatal Strikes While this is all useful, don't go crazy trying to optimize fatal strikes against certain enemy types. Simply having lots of "green" or "blue" artes set up and using them constantly will get you lots of opportunities regardless of an enemy's resistance. No enemy is immune to fatal strikes, which is very, very good. A good example is Overlimit->Destruction Field spam. In addition to being fun to do, you'll get at least one red fatal strike out of that no matter who you're fighting. One last note; the trigger does have a delay, press too fast and you'll whiff the fatal strike. Wait until the glyph fully forms.

Arkeus posted:How the heck do you have it in English? Re: Crushing Eagle, you shouldn't use it. At least don't chain it off Fang Strike. Fang Strike hits the enemy in the air, and Crushing Eagle damages enemies... on the ground. They don't synergize well. vvv Yes it is a good arte, I'm aware. But it definitely shouldn't be used with artes that throw an enemy up. Also Minifoo keeps using "Rudolf" so enemies are in the air a lot.

The only things that point to the human NPCs not being killed is that they have a different animation when defeated (falling over instead of vaporizing) and the fact that none of the human bosses we've defeated have died directly from battle (yet?). Actually I think the only boss we've killed period was Gattuso. Which is good because gently caress that guy.Kuvo posted:As for the "monsters" (most of which seem to be naturally occurring animals?), are we to assume that what Karol said (MONSTERS = EVIL) is true? Can a creature not capable of sapience act with malic? I'm pretty sure most of the fights can be summed up as either animals trying to get a meal or defending their territory, neither of which would work for the self defense argument. Maybe they're hungry and humans taste like

quote:The hell is a weasand? Wikipedia posted:Weasand, a term for the oesophagus obsolete as regards human anatomy but current in meat-packing  Wait, that's not quite right. It's apparently a geographical term for a narrow place, I guess like the "throat" of the mountain? Wikipedia also mentions this specific video game location in the disambiguation page for some reason.

You never asked for this but here it is anyway! Vesperia sign translation Part 2: Sign on wall of Inn "Antares" pre:Welcome to Mantaiku 1...... 012 Gald 2...... 345 Gald 3...... 678 Gald 4...... 9 Gald  Mantaiku is probably meant to be Mantaic, the name of the town.

^^ I like the ones where only the pipe is visible best, but drat that mirror one is pure gold. It's wonderful  , but this would make him stand out more and be harder to conceal behind every other character/object in cutscenes.

Not really visible from that angle, but the Karol doll is hanging onto Repede's tail. And oh my god Flynn looks so grumpy.

Benach posted:I think the "Min 60 TP" clause for that one skill is just to stop the New Game+ with Skills but No HP making Rita even more busted that she already is by having unending quickcast cheapo novice spells. Though it's still arbitrary. She still effectively has unending casting since novice spells max out at 14 TP normally, so you'd be spending maybe 2 per spell and Rita isn't exactly short on TP. All enemies will be dead long before you run out. The PS3 version has cutscene skip, among other conveniences, so yeah it's entirely superior.

Admiral H. Curtiss posted:"FREN" is most likely some Japanese dude's attempt at spelling フレン, so that's referring to Flynn. And here I thought it would be spelled out フリン (FU-RI-N) in Japanese rather than フレン (FU-RE-N). Looking it up, the latter is the correct Japanese spelling so Fren is definitely Flynn. Still no idea on "ACHCLOR", if anyone else wants to take a stab at translating it here's the alphabet chart I used: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/kazzisato/tos/vesplang.png

Yeah that last skit feels really weird and out of place. I'm curious if the Japanese 360 version also references Alexei like that. I got the Drakengard reference.

I don't remember the echo in the canyon area cutscenes at all. Then again this section is completely forgettable. From the world map it just looks like all cliffs way above sea level with no gradual slopes, like someone took a few cookie cutters to a regular plateau and then stuck it on the ocean.

The elder cucumber bit was actually mentioned before, unless it was skipped over in the LP. He talks about a legendary cucumber that turns any dish into a gourmet meal or something? I'm pretty sure it's spoken dialogue too, so it's either a consistent translation/localization error or this guy is just kinda weird.Ramos posted:God loving drat it. Then later we will have 20 more.

I don't think that's true? The bar should be full. Kuvo, have you gone to Zaphias? According to GameFAQs, the final scene should be in the lower quarter by the tavern.
