Wow, I only just found the game on the shelves among many other games that weren't in the New Releases section despite being a new release (Came out this Thursday).
From what I've gathered after playing for about an hour, it's definitely better than the first game in a number of ways. Combat's much faster-paced and a bit more challenging, the skills are a lot less frustrating since it now just depends if you have enough AP to use it, dungeons are slightly more interesting, enemies are more creative and possibly a few other things.
Rantai
Nepgear is adorable.

But yeah the two biggest things I noticed were the upgrade in environments and the music. It's at least decent now opposed to abysmal.

Also I quite like the use of the models in dialogue now, purely personal but seeing them move at 60 fps is something else.

Lol yuri too

Setting for Assassin's Creed 3 is going to be really interesting. I'm excited about it based on that alone.

I'm happy they're finally making a new Assassin's Creed game instead of remaking the same one. New traversal, new combat style, new free-running style, etc. And they're apparently ditching the castle defense thing they stuffed into Revelations, so that's nice. A bow and arrow will be cool to use. I wanna see what they mean when they say that momentum is a big part of combat now. It seems like it'll be less counter-based, so that's cool.

Edit: So yeah, I got really bored with Fear 2. Fighting the same fucking enemies with boring guns over and over just to get an occasional, not-even-scary pop-up... Trying out Bioshock. I don't know why I didn't like this game when I tried the demo, because I'm having fun with it.
-Athena-
Tower defense sucked, and spamming counter kills although cool as hell did get boring. Is it just me or is this franchise meant for a controller, playin on pc just doesn't feel the same, had to plug in my Xbox controller lol

For some reason I don't like bioshock as well... I think I've figured it out why, it's te time period, I don't really like anything set far into the future or bioshock's time period (modern yet ancient ala la noire)

So I finally started up Asura's Wrath. Played Part 1 (Episode 1-6). Holy fucking shit, I underestimated how awesome this game would be. I knew this game would be outrageous, but I never thought I'd be fighting a duel when I don't have any arms. And then kick ass. The fighting is so fun in this, too. It's so fast-paced and exaggerated. If this is just a movie, then it is the greatest movie I'll ever fucking see. I did underestimate how many cutscenes there would be in this game, but I don't give a shit cause every cutscene is awesome. Or hilarious. Or hilariously awesome.

Last chapter on mk2 right now.
I still haven't gotten Noire join my party yet since there are barely any quests to raise Lastation's shares in Lastation and yet Arfoire doesn't have any shares to mooch off anymore since I already got rid of all of them.
Well, at least I'm almost done. Been playing it for about a week now.

EDIT: Just beat the game with the Normal and Human/Makers Endings. Time to get those other endings if I can.

Oh, Noire can join your party. I just didn't think I'd end up locking her off by accident on my first playthrough. Did too many quests that raised Planeptune's shares in Lastation and I couldn't fix it sadly.
Got her in a New Game+ though.

That sucks lmfao! I didn't do any quests really, so I was good to go. All I needed to do was actually get Lastation shares to 50+ or w.e.

On another note, what is your favourite team so far? I do not specifically mean effective, unless your favourite just so happens to be such. Mine is: Uni, Noire, Nepgear, and Rom

Uni = Tsundere ('nuff said)

Mine is:
Nepgear (Yeah... OP)
Neptune (Not as OP as Nepgear but slightly OP even without good skills. Still has the awesome jokes)
Nisa (Not as useless as she was in the first one so +1 for her. Good skills)
Compa (Healer!)

So yeah, pretty much the first bunch you get. (IF replaced by Neptune)
No one else was worthy of replacing them. (Except for Compa when all the enemies were missing my whole team) No need for you, Compa.
YodaSnipe
Kay so today I discovered THE MOST RIDICULOUS THING EVER in HDN MK2.

Kay here it is:
Have Nepgear Partner supporting in the back behind Neptune. Nepgear has a support skill that allows you to break the 9999 damage cap. Now have two vanguard members pop two psp chargers on Neptune. Hit the boss with the Couple Skill and you'll be doing like 7 hits of about 40,000-70,000 damage ON THE FIRST TURN!!!

My team is now:

Noire (Leader) - I use her for str buffs/psp chargers/her epic sword attack thingy (forget what it's called)
Uni - I use her for psp chargers/and to take hits from paralyzer enemies.
Rom - Backup Healer just in case, and does fantastic magic damage.
Neptune with Nepgear damage break support - Cast Couple Skill.

I can take out bosses in one turn at like level 50 it's great. Even really really tough ones.

I wanted to keep Nisa, but seriously no CPU is just weak imo. However, she is just so awesome regardless. Compa's voice kills her character, i hate that damn desu~ness

Edit: I just discovered that there are a couple of damage limit breaking items sooo back to nepgear rapin'!!!
Mafiamaster
I've never gotten around to using couple skills. At first I thought, they had to be close together on the field and when I did find out about how to use them, I was already on the conquest ending route which you don't obtain any couple skills since "oooo sorry, not true ending route".

So yeah, my late game was just Nepgear spamming Celestial Severance on all the bosses while the others slowly chip at its' HP/GP.
About ~1.5 minutes for ~200,000 exp on a specfic boss fight? Might've been a whole lot faster with your 'no damage limit' rings.
YodaSnipe
yeah the damage limit breakers soooo OP
Mafiamaster
Tales of Graces f

I fell asleep playing it. When I woke up, I was at the start of a boss battle. Boss was too hard on moderate difficulty and after 3 game overs, I turned off the PS3 and tossed my controller at the wall. Pissed, I fell back asleep.

Woke up the next morning (today), changed the difficulty to Normal. Still got demolished by this certain boss. Changed difficulty to Easy and beat the boss. Saved, then stopped playing because I wasn't satisfied.

The damage this boss does on moderate is ridiculous. 3/4 of my health gone, seriously... what is this? Stunned for 5 seconds, can't move at all, he proceeds to combo me further resulting in death. Then goes ahead and combos the other teammates and they easily die from it. Life potion someone, and I'm stuck for like 3 seconds giving the enemy a 1-shot chance.

Other bosses: I revive a person, they die instantly again because they head straight for the boss after waking up. Or even, the boss goes back to take their life again.

Summary: I like the game very much!
YodaSnipe
Well, challenge of the difficulties aside. I thought it was pretty bad tbh. I mean that entire beginning thing where you play as a kid doing kid things, like r u srs? no, I don't want that in my games thanks. If the other tales games are as shitty as this, then I won't even bother playing them. /disappointed :(
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
Well, it's not really fair to judge an entire RPG based on the beginning. They almost always take several hours to start revving up. You didn't even finish the Final Fantasy XIII tutorial for, like, 12 chapters. But I haven't played Graces yet and I haven't seen any videos of it yet. And it's not really fair to judge the entire Tales series based on one game, since there's over a dozen of the things, and they're not all the same. Unless you don't like some of the very, very basic things about the game. Tales of Symphonia would be one of the best Tales games. I've heard Tales of the Abyss is very good, but I haven't done that yet.
Ivalset
Abyss blows Symphonia out of the water.

Or maybe I just despise most of Symphonia's cast!

In any case, Graces' combat system is really nice and complex and the game gets a million times better once the childhood arc ends.

Those are both signs of a very poorly designed game. RPGs are supposed to engage nearly immediately (within the first 2 hours) with their mechanics if not their storyline. The fact that we've accepted what FF13 brought to the table is a sign that we're all lowering our standards. The fact that I both acknowledge and accept the problem suggests I'm one of the worst, too.
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
Well, it's not that an RPG is usually bad when it starts out, it's just that you haven't unlocked the abilities or side dungeons that make the game really awesome and challenging and stuff. It takes a while for the games to stop holding your hands. Symphonia, for example. really kicks in once you get access to the flying things (I forget the name). Golden Sun kicks in once you get a decent selection of Djinn. Doesn't Disgaea really start kicking into high gear after you beat the game? In Kingdoms of Amalur, I started having even more fun once I learned some new skills and abilities.

Ivalset wrote:

Agreed, the battle system basically took Symphonia's already great one and added everything it needed.
However... the story was a bit slow in a lot of places.

Anyway, it's a good thing I came here since I'm now reminded of Graces, I got to try it out soon.
Dieathan
There! That's about almost all the endings in mk2. Can't be bothered with the Conquest ending right now but its good enough.
Now to get onto Catherine.
YodaSnipe
Whoa whoa whoa I didn't say that the other tales games were as bad as graces F based on the beginning of this game. I was simply stating that *IF* the other games were like that then I wouldn't bother playing them. I agree with awp on the whole poor game design part, and I am also at fault for loving FF13. Maybe cause I'm a cutscene pixelwhore... Anyways, I didn't get that much enjoyment out of Graces F's combat system, my buddy plays a lot of tales games and says abyss, symphonia and vesperia (i think it's those three idr) were a lot better overall and that I should play them first then judge the series :p

Oh, and for me, (kinda pathetic but w.e I'm not ashamed) if I don't like the character designs, then chances are I'm not going to play the game. ie. Graces F.

and when I say character design I mean the colours, art, clothing, style, personalities, etc of every character.

T_T I'm so simple minded... Gimme hot girls a semi-interesting story, and fun combat and I'll be hooked for hours /points at HDN MK2

Man, Dragon's Dogma demo is so fuckin' short. What the fuck.

I'm not sure if I liked what I played because it was literally 10 minutes long and went into absolutely 0 depth about anything. It'd be fairly simple for me to assume that the game is just "grapple onto these niggas and mash square", even though I know there is more to the game.

Character creator was nice though.

Yes. You can't choose the clothing in the creator in the demo, but you can change features and stuff. You can change quite a lot of details. And this is the first game that basically lets you play as, like, a pre-teen if you want. I made a young Asian chick cause I thought that'd be awesome to see this tiny, skinny chick fighting huge fuck-off monsters. And it was awesome. I spent waaaay more time in the character creator than I did in the actual game though. I like that the game will let you import that character into the full game though. I spent a ton of time making a character in the Kingdoms of Amalur demo, then had to recreate the character in the main game.

There were two big things that I didn't like about the game. You can't target enemies, which was annoying during the griffon fight, and you can't dodge roll, which was also annoying during the griffon fight.
Ivalset
What? I'm pretty sure archers have a dodge roll. Should be R1 + X.

Not that you'd have enough time to figure that out because you literally spend 4 minutes playing as an archer aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
Wait, seriously? That would've been helpful to know. That griffon kicked my ass. I almost died a couple of times and used up most of my healing items. Then it turned to night so I could barely even see the thing. And I couldn't even climb onto the thing until it was almost dead. I liked how my pawn would throw me into the air all the time, and miss every time.
Ivalset
Dude, really? As soon as it swooped in, I hopped on its back and started slashing its wings. I guess my mage pawn lit everyone's weapons on fire, so maybe that made them slightly more effective. Mashed light attack maybe thirty times, hanging on for dear life while carving up the wings. Eventually it fell, then I...kept on mashing light attack to carve it up. It tried to get up, except now everyone in my party except for the mage decided to grab onto it, and it quickly went crashing again. Carved up again, then a few love taps to finish it off.

Jesus Selphie, I didn't even know it could turn to night.
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
Well, I was under the impression that I could just shoot the wing enough and it'd come off so it'd just stay on the ground. I didn't think I needed to rush the whole jumping onto him thing. When I realized that the wing wasn't gonna come off, I would keep getting hit when I got near him and he'd just fly away before I could get up. Or he'd just land way far away from me and fly off before I could get to him. He only got floored about twice during the fight, and the first time I was just trying to shoot his wings off. So yeah, I was under the impression that this game might have a little more variety than "grab onto monster and mash square". So sue me.

So I picked up Jak & Daxter Collection and Tales of Graces f. I've already beaten Jak 1. Until I played that game again, I always thought I really liked that game. That game is damned frustrating. A platforming game that doesn't let you look down. What a great idea. This is the first time an HD Collection game hasn't been as good as I remembered. Anyway, whatever. Two more Jaks to go. I haven't even played half of 2 and any of 3, so they can't let me down like the first one did.

Edit: So yeah, Jak II sucks even more than I remembered. I knew this game sucked, but now I know why.

Oh my God, Max Payne 3 is the fucking worst. I've only done 3 levels out of 14 and I don't think I can bring myself to play another. It's just so fucking pointless. This game is great if you played Red Dead Redemption and thought "Hey, I really like this shooting mechanic. I want to do this for 8 hours straight with a thousand long cutscenes interrupting me every 3 minutes." And they put collectibles in this game, but basically force you to use a guide, because you don't get time to look. If you spend too long in one room, you will often get a game over for the dumbest reasons. Your game doesn't pause when you open the weapon wheel, and there's no other way to switch guns. And there's only four gun options, so I don't know why it wasn't just put on the D-Pad. You can't switch shoulders, you can't go around corners while staying in cover and you can't break out of cover by running around corners. It's a shooting game, but they give you finite health and they give you about the same amount of healing items as a Resident Evil game. And if you wanted to completely make the game pointless, you could turn on the snap aiming and breeze through every room. But if you don't, the aiming sucks so bad that you get shot up like a motherfucker.

And I already know this game's going to get some fantastic reviews, too. Crazy.

There is a mix of good and bad in there. Finite health good, lack of shoulder switching bad. Lack of pause mid-combat good, inappropriate lack of hotkeys bad.

Didn't know that game came out though. Thought it wasn't due for a while.
