Tales of Legendia.

I completed the full game last week, and I must say that I highly enjoyed it. The battle system was good, but i CANNOT STAND random battles because they happen too damn often. I found myself using holy bottles throughout the CQs. Either way I look at it as the "main" quest being Senel, and Shirley's CQ. It seems to make more sense that way. Also did anyone else feel good after the end of chapter 4? Just one thing that bugged me about that chapter, and about the events in the CQs.

Spoiler:

All of that build up to Vaclav, and he turns out to be absolutly pathetic! Stingle was the true challenge! I also cannot stand how so many people pull a complete 180 during the CQ. Mainly Mauritz(SP?) It just seems so stupid to be completely fine with everything after the way he was acting at the end of the game. Even if it was only because he was under control of the raging nerifes, it's sill pretty retarded IMO.

Other than those small nit picks, a VERY enjoyable game. Oh, and IMO the music his HIGHLY overrated. It seems everyone just likes unique sounding stuff these days.

How ya doing, buddy?

Yea, I guess i'm in the minority about the music. I'm not saying I hated it, but I only found about 2 songs that I would listen to outside of the game. IMO the best song was the very crazy one they played in some of the monuments in the quiet lands. And in response to your response about my spoiler:

Spoiler:

I loved how Walter wasted his last energy summoning that absolutly pathetic machine. A wasted death for a character that quite honestly wasted my time.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

If you ask me, some FF music are repeated over and over again with some minor variations. Now that's something I can't really stomach.

Now currently at Norma's quest. Yeah, "bubbles" would be appropriate.

Spoiler:

Never even crossed my mind that she was a polar opposite when her master Sven was alive.

And could somebody clarify for me Will's story?

Spoiler:

So he came to the Legacy and took Amelia with him and has ben branded a criminal, Amelia and Will at field of flowers and name a flower on their daughter. Did I miss something very important?

In response to your question about Will's CQ:

Spoiler:

This is off the top of my head so not sure if I remmeber everything correctly. Will falls in love with Amelia, but her father tries to seperate them. He tells her to run off with him to the Legacy. She agrees and her father (who is apparantly a very rich and important man) wanted will to be punished, and I think executed because of "kidnapping" his daughter. Somewhere during this time Amelia gives birth to their child too. Amelia asks her father not to be too harsh so instead Will gets exiled to the Legacy. Amelia eventually dies, and will blames himself a bit because he thinks taking her to the Legacy was one of the things that led to her weakened state. The flower field was their favorite place, and I guess they just wanted to name the new flower they found the same as their daughter. Not really much to explain about the field scenes actually. Either way this is from pure memory of about 3 weeks ago so I could be wrong about some things, but I believe i'm close.

I would say Chloe had the best CQ if it weren't for:

Spoiler:

Stingle (who was a bad ass boss fight) ending up being a complete good guy, and Chloe just forgives him, and acts like they're friends. This is just as stupid as Mauritz's 360 personality shift.

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

The game is quite epic in itself. The ending I wouldn't call Epic, but it wraps everything up nicely, and leaves just about no loose ends. Only thing really left out in the open is:

Spoiler:

Who hired the ninja's to kidnap Shirley? Also the whole tense situation about the lower continents wanting to use the Legacy as a weapon for themselves.

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