So all this was part of the FFXII day in NYC right?

Am I the only one who thinks this game is insanely difficult? It started off pretty easy and all of a sudden I found that every boss was effortlessly taking down my party. I've had Game Over multiple times on nearly every boss. All my characters are level 28-29, I an at Bur Omisace, trying to fight that one Judge... I can't even take down his three flunkies before I just get torn apart.
The problem is that there's really no intermediate Cure-Curaga attack, just Cura, which affects all the members of the party, which isn't what I need when one character is hurt. So intead I have something like Ally:HP < 60% -> Cure; but all that causes is sometimes endless loops of curing. One character gets hurt, other characters cast cure, while they're casting cure another character gets hurt, another character casts cure, etc. So against tougher enemies I can't even hardly get any attacks in. But when I try to use Cura, what usually happens when fighting bosses is that the character gets KO'd right when the ATB bar is full. It's just infuriating. I've had to level up before every boss fight. In this case I leveled up and took the time to buy the most powerful weapons available at the time. I'm still getting my ass handed to me. I don't know what to do anymore. I can only see the final boss of this game kicking my ass repeatedly. There must be some huge strategical aspect of the game that I am missing. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
spoiler for about 6 hours into the game...:
I was speaking idiomatically. |

I guess if you're persistent enough you can get one of those LE display cases...
I haven't been able to see it in person but it looks nice from that photo. I'm just happy it doesn't have any of the EB/GameStop junk on it like their other LE tin cases. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I read that widescreen functionality was added to the NA version. If it wasn't in the Japan release, does that mean the FMVs are still in 4:3 or did they re-render them in 16:9 for NA?
Are there any other added features to the NA version? Also, if the last boss isn't too hard, are there secret bosses like Omega/Ruby/Emerald Weapon? Sephiroth and [insert last boss for FFX] posed no threats to my characters, but those Weapons and Monster Arena bosses were tough. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
almost all "summon" are optional boss (not sure but I think they are called Esper in that game too no?)
I didn't play the game but I heard there's about 5-6 summon that you get following the story and the rest are sidequest (there's 13 summons and for the last I think you must have all the other 12 before fighting it) and I heard that ultima and the last summon are really hard. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Oh the FFXII Play Arts figures, they finally got a street date! February 28, 2007 is the release for the Japan (as listed by cdjapan anyway), meaning the NA release will probably be about 2-3 months afterwards. Which is great news for me, as I'm strapped for cash. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview....EY=NEOSL-11501 http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview....EY=NEOSL-11502 http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview....EY=NEOSL-11503 http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview....EY=NEOSL-11504 Most amazing jew boots |
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
What is it now, 16 days? Most amazing jew boots - What we all do best - |
There are TONS of optional bosses, this game has the most sidequests/optinal bosses then any other FF.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Mob hunt is one of the major side quests, which consist of lot of running around and killing tough enemies. I guess, in summary there are 32 Pub Mobs and 13 Clan Mobs... and I have to say Clan mobs are waaay harder than Pub offers! Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Anyone else doing the later sidequests? I beat the game less then a week ago so I have been trying to finish all mob hunts and such. g
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
so.. all you guys that downloaded it, an beat it.. how is it? is it long?
Would you buy the retail version, now that youve seen it all? This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

How did i find it? Story sucks big time,but i do like the whole Star Wars thing (fan and all).The Voiceacting is INCREDIBLE! The Battlesystem is kinda refreshing BUT i still prefer the turn base system as i want to feel like i'm doing all the work (gambits,etc..). The dungeons are also annoying,i felt like i was playing DIABLO all over again...it didn't feel like Final Fantasy at all. The thing i do love about this game is the sidequests...boy,there are TONS and i am planning to do em all Will i PAY for the game? I don't know....but something inside says i will. I always did have respect for Square (Enix) and i even bought FF X-2 for crying out loud. But the two games i was looking forward to all year (Kingdom Hears 2 and FF XII) were SUCH a disappointment...they really fucked up. So the answer is...dunno XD I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Also some minor mini games too Lets see how far I get before getting tired and finish the game. I was speaking idiomatically. |
14 days....:biggrin:
Some GAFers are reporting that their local EB and GameStop stores are now telling customers that preorders have stopped for the regular edition while preorders for the LE version will come to an end in the next day or 2 due to an increased demand for the game. So I guess if you plan on getting the NA version and haven't preordered a copy yet then now is the time to do so. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I just hope the claim about the game being handed out early (october 24th) to pre-orders proves true. I talked to a GS clerk last week and he denied it. I'm all set to play the game next week, considering how busy I've been this week (dentist, final, TB test).

The LE guide should be out next week though. How ya doing, buddy? |
