[PS2] Tales of The Abyss

The world map had some issues alright, but I enjoyed the game so much, that I just beared with it, and got used to it eventually. It's only really bad when you are on foot. Did anyone else have that bug, where at some point in the game, the world map music wouldn't play at all? it would continue the song that was playing in the area you just exit.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That's the thing though. If the battles on the overworld map were random, I would have gone insane, but 90% of the time you could easily avoid them, and yeah...because of the loadtimes you wanted to avoid them like the plague.

I was pretty surprised reading about how you can abuse the worldmap by removing the disc. Getting Asch really early on, and getting some overpowered weapons from towns you'd normally won't be able to access.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm old fashioned, and always stick with the main characters, even if the other characters are so much cooler to play with. Guy was pretty tempting, I have to say. When I played him in the Arena, I noticed what a big difference it was between them. He's so much more agile, and his center skill was awesomeness. It restored a huge portion of his health in a instant. Tempest I couldn't help but love either, it's a lot better then in ToD.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Yes, ToD for the PS1. As I recall when Stahn used it he jumped a bit too high in the air, so it had the potential to miss a lot if the enemy was pretty small.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
