Hero-of-Time Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 I will say that the epic fight you done yesterday evening was when the game peaks. It's all downhill from there, at least until the final battle. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game is boring me to tears Caught myself just holding L3 so Torgal can show me the way to beat some linear sections as quickly as possible. There are no worthwhile rewards for exploration. Where did the good old FFIX, FFX, FFXII times go 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game is boring me to tears Life today was more boring so I fired this up again Some of the abilities you get are OP as hell...I only really have to fight when they are on cooldown. And even then it doesn't take long until I can unleash 'em again... Spoiler The weird fireballs surrounding Clive + the Lightning Rod = ridiculous damage by simply standing in one spot. Diamond Dust for big AOE damage. Gigaflare for stupidly high damage. I barely have to press buttons anymore. Ooooohhh how I wish this was an old-school turn-based JRPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 The loadout I used consisted of an air attack that created a massive tornado, a fire attack that done huge damage and healed me, and a lightning attack that rained from the sky. There are lots to play with but those lot worked for me and so I never felt to change them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know what I hate? When you save up your strongest attacks for some nice stagger damage and when you launch the first the game decides: "Nope, the boss has to do one of his big moves now so no more damage! NO MORE FUCKING DAMAGE FROM YOU! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" This game, man... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decided to give up on the remaining side content and just finish it.FFXVI = wasted potential, the game Even though I played most of it in 2023, this will be on my 2024 list and I'd be surprised if any game gets a lower score from me... But hey, the music was good. Aside from that one fight 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julius Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 (edited) The Rising Tide DLC floods Valisthea on 18th April: Quote Available for Download April 18, 2024 An unmarked letter arrives at the hideaway containing a request most curious: the Dominant of Leviathan, long lost Eikon of Water, is in need of rescue. To heed this call, Clive and his companions must journey to Mysidia - a hidden land under a blue sky - where they will uncover the tragic history of a forgotten people.
