It’s time to do the drill, LEVEL POWER UP TIME!

Quote:

Do you level your guys up SIGNIFICANTLY higher than what’s expected for the current level/boss?

Depends. On games like Final Fantasy Tactics, it was hard not too - and even if I weren't at a higher level than the boss, I still pissed them off by stealing weapons/causing status effects. In other words, IF I CAN'T HAVE IT, NEITHER CAN THEY. XD

Quote:

Do you level your guys up so they can fight the boss on more “equal” footing, but still have some difficulty?

Most bosses are pushovers except for those ultra-special hidden ones that should be the real bosses.

Quote:

Do you level only certain party members in which ever RPG you might be playing, or do you go the full nine yards and get everyone maxed out?

Certain classes/party members. I grind who I know I'm going to use the most, which makes it hard to bring in new blood because they're so far behind.

Quote:

What RPG do you recall has having the longest time spent on pure leveling up? Alright, running to the local town to restock supplies you can count, as long as it’s mainly just raising the level of your characters?

FFT by a long shot.

Quote:

Do you normally level up in every RPG you play? By that - ie grinding like an over-worked bitchy mom.

At the beginning of games, because I hate being weak and having low stats. I want the fancy-pants moves and stuff, so I punish any similarly weak enemies until I get there, then I plow through the rest of the game with occasional "grind sessions" to learn the next fancy special.

How ya doing, buddy?
