You're not gonna use Sveta? Himi over Sveta? Himi's the worrrst. Dude, Sveta can transform into this beast mode during battle. By the time I finally realized you could do that, she was doing either 300+ damage to every enemy or 600+ to a single enemy every turn. And if you defend in beast form, she defends everyone. The only downside to it is you can't use Djinn, and I think once you go out of beast form, most of your Djinn are resting. Ithink. I haven't used it enough to know if that's what happened. Like, I literally didn't find that out until the second-to-last boss.

That sounds gay as fuck, I'm not into furries man.

I finally did it. I've finally won Dark Dawn. By that I mean I have all level 99 characters, beat every optional and mandatory boss, opened every chest, got all the summons, and got all the Djinn. It's kinda lame that the minute you get the last summon, that's the minute it becomes useless.
Just finally met (and said goodbye to, zzz) Sveta. She's pretty alright, but I'm pretty sure she's just going to be the fifth man in a four man team.
Tyrell is such a badass with a longsword though, jesus christ. And so is Matthew. I don't think I can ever replace them because they look so stylish all the time.

Sveta is a beast. Pack Defend is so good. I already know she's going to replace my water adepts as a whole... When I get her again.
God, you guys are so gay for Sveta.RL Link wrote:

I'd have Tyrell in my team if he wasn't such a doucher character. He's supposed to be a comic relief, but Eoleo's funnier. Tyrell can hold a really strong sword though. Some enemy drops it, but I forgot which one. I don't even remember where I got it, but it's a Fire Brand. I don't think I ever got a better sword for him than that. Also, Rief totally reminds me of Hope. Hope was a flaming faggot, but he was such a good healer that I didn't care.

I got Final Fantasy XIII the other day but names/characters like that are one of the reasons I haven't booted it up yet. Everyone has a stupid-sounding name. Hope, Snow, Lightning, Buttercup, Mayonnaise. The cast of characters looks kind of nauseating, minus Seifer and Ival
Vanille and Fang are the only ones you need, anywho.
I picked that game up again recently, but once I realized that the only thing standing between me and a platinum is about 20 hours of grinding, I frowned and put it back in the closet.

Dream team right there. Give me my bitches, awp.
Back to golden sun, I just got Eoleo and he seems like an equal level faggot to Tyrell, except he can't use longswords (the best looking weapon in the game). So he is perma-backlined. Honestly the more I think about it, the more it seems like I'll just end up using all the bitches and Matthew.
Also I hate how whenever I have enough djinn to sport the 8 djinn classes, some faggot enters my group and I'm back down to 7 on everyone again

olawd I wasn't able to find any Longswords that were better than my light swords. I ended up dropping Tyrell and Himi overall, while switching between Rief and Karis. That said, I just beat the game, although I wish it was longer.
Ah well, time to 100%.

Oh my God, right? I thought something was wrong when I first saw that. I thought maybe her agility was too low or something or maybe she got debuffed, but no, she's just that slow. Besides, little girls shouldn't be fighting monsters in the first place.Ivalset wrote:

Oh, and Eoleo was fucking useful because he had defense buff/debuff spells. That was pretty helpful against bosses that like to drain your Djinn like an asshole. Also, it let me keep my defense Djinn on standby instead of wasting a turn on setting.
I can only hope she unleashes so I can speed that shit up.
It is really funny watching Himi use Combat Dance, because she swings so slowly the animation takes like 10 seconds compared to Karis' taking like 2 seconds.
Also awp, snow is a fucking douchebag don't pair me up with that faggot. I need my bitches. Bitches should be bitchy, that's why they're bitches. You can substitute Vanille with Fang, I won't mind. You can only edit the party like...20 hours in, though. And I don't remember if you can use less than three people. Selphie would probably know.

Just remember that Hope is a complete douchenozzle and you don't want him in your party any more than required.
And use Sazh just because his blitz owns. And because I own. It is required that you make me a sentinel as soon as possible and grab provoke/steelguard because I have the best provoke animation in the game.

Even in post-game content, there is no real reason to use Hope. He just isn't necessary since you don't really ever need to be healed (that is, if you don't suck).
Topic Starter
Well he's not just a healer, he's got all the best attack spells. There's nothing Vanille does that makes her a requirement for the party. I'd rather have someone who heals too well than someone who debuffs too well.
And obviously pride is not a concern when you have Hope.
But debuffs are literally the best thing in FFXIII.

Fang can debuff just fine. I don't need Fang and Vanille, and there's no way I'd ever replace Fang for anyone else.
And that's what I love about Disgaea. All of the main characters in Disgaea are as awesome as Sazh. But thank god for Sazh, he's good enough to make the "FF13 cast" enjoyable, even if he's the only good one.Ivalset wrote:

By the way, Snow is a faggot and Hope is a bigger faggot, approaching Ken (P3) levels.

Well duh Vanille is better than Fang at debuffs, but Fang's retardedly strong AND has a decent arsenal of debuffs. If she didn't have the crucial debuffs that she has, I probably would have to bring in Vanille.
And dude, don't forget about Fran. She was the other awesome character in that game.
Edit: Also picked up Resonance of Fate today.

Guys, it's not a decision between Fang and Vanille, it's a decision between Vanille and Hope. Because Hope is a fucking douchefaggot, so the choice should be pretty obvious.
Also Vanille has red hair.

I thought it looked okay at best, but the battle system seems kinda simple. Customization is key, though, because this is a Gust game. I can count on it probably being at least passable. Still gonna wait for individual consensuses before playing.
I'll play like any gust game.

Edit: Oh yeah, I finished the maingame of Golden Sun. Wow, final boss felt like what a normal boss should have. I went in there with my normal crew of Karis/Himi/Sveta/Matthew as Guru/Master/Gladiator/Ronin (something along those lines, at least), and shit went downhill pretty fast since I had 0 party healing and only one reviver, and djinn blast was just not fun times. So I switched the earth adepts to paladins and switched Karis back to her main class and cruised through pretty easy. I wish the other bosses in the game required actual thought.
Actually, I think the only boss in the game where I felt in danger of losing was the first group of soldiers with psy grenades, those guys almost ruined me.
I'll probably finish off crossbone isle then be done with it. Still missing 3 djinn and a few summon tablets but I don't even care.

If you think Djinn Blast is bad, wait until you see what Dullahan like to do. He's kind of a bastard even if you're prepared.
I don't even think djinn blast is bad. Every boss in the game should be using that, at least.
I'm a little disgusted that I could ease through the entire game without planning much of anything. I mean, my final boss strategy was "use pure wish".
Playing other mmos right now, but I have an eight hour car drive back to alabama on sunday, so I'll tackle Dullahan then.

Anyway, I cannot get Vash to stop leveling up like a beast in Resonance. He is 8/10 levels higher than Zephyr/Leanne. And the worst part about it is that he's my least favorite character.
Vashyron owns, he's awesome. I can't say he's better than the others because I have equal love for all of them.
Easy way to level is to switch weapons around. Beware, it'll just make the rest of the game easier, it's not balanced for level-grinding.
Oh, also, you can switch character positions in the menu. Make him third to go, and put your machine gunner in top position. If Vashyron is your machine gunner, then that is pretty much why he is leveling like a beast. Generally two people will be high level; the scratcher and the main source of direct damage. Third person usually ends up just doing utility/knockbacks and set up for tri-attacks.

Man, I've been playing for 35 hours or something now. I totally know all of that stuff. The reason Vash is such a high level is cause he is my MG user, but I don't have a second high level cause I try to keep Zephyr and Leanne equal. So for every level they both get, Vash gets twice as much experience. Then when his HG gets too high, I switch him to rookie grenades and those levels just skyrocket, so now he's just ridiculously leveled.Ivalset wrote:

Well, okay! It sounded there was some confusion as to why so I felt compelled to explain needlessly!
I always had Leanne as my highest level because she was my machine gunner and grenadier. Her dual sub machine gun skill activation animation when running past an enemy is the greatest. She like does a flip in the air while shooting, lands on her knees and turns around, all while still shooting. It looks like that one move from Bayonetta, except more badass somehow.
This is it. Also at 2:36.

Oh wow, that is pretty badass. The battle animations are half of what make this game so damn awesome. If they just ran around with boring camera angles, shooting like normal, this game would suck. I haven't been doing any dual-wielding yet cause I don't wanna sacrifice customization to make room for a second gun like that. Maybe once I have way more weight capacity, but that'll take a while.Ivalset wrote:

Yeah, it's only really worth it when you can fit enough scopes on both so that your initial charge time isn't complete ass. Then it gets much better once you can fit on all your crazy barrels and magazines.
Once you have enough weight capacity for it to not be an issue, it's still debatable whether dual smg's is better than single smg+magazine case. Correctly selected ammunition makes a huge difference and one smg will always have higher stats compared to the average of two smgs since one is always slightly inferior to the other. But two drum magazines puts out a shitload of bullets...
I dual wielded smg's in my first playthrough then used single smg/ammo in my second playthrough since weight is a pretty huge issue at low levels. You should pretty much always dual wield handguns, though.

Yeah, that's the thing that's keeping me from dual-wielding SMGs. Armor Piercing is so damn useful and you can't do that any other way with an SMG. Why would I need to dual-wield HG though? So far I've only been using them to take off scratch damage with one hit, so I like having a high charge time just so I can hit multiple enemies in one run. There are only special occasions where the HG's skills are even useful right now, too. Unless there's something I don't know...

Just Cause 2 is amazing on PC. It has a small modding community and it's one of the few games worth using a trainer for because infinite grappling hooks and unbreakable grappling hooks.
It can also make the PS3 version look terrible if you have a good enough PC and that's quite a feat.

Gauge breaking is extremely useful since it stuns enemies and forces them to give up more bezels. Additionally, it's easier to juggle enemies while dual-wielding since you're putting out up to double the bullets.Seibei4211 wrote:

If you're gauge breaking, more bullets = much higher chance of breaking and a higher chance of multiple breaks. If you're juggling/converting scratch, you can just do a bunch of single charges to hopefully get them off their feet.
Topic Starter
Yeah, I actually learned why gauge-breaking is halfway decent today. I was fighting Bigfoot in the arena for the first time and I got my SMG user frozen and the bastard was just camping and freezing him a bunch, so I used dual-wielding Leanne to stun him until Zephyr got unfrozen. Then after the fight, I realized Vash had a fucking First Aid Kit the whole damn time. But yeah, so far I don't really need gauge-breaking and stunning that much. My guys are at such a high level right now that I can just scratch bosses with one or two full charges. I'm sure it'll get useful with more ridiculous bosses though.Ivalset wrote:

Most games would be better on PC (assuming, in this case, you can hook a playstation controller to your PC) because of modding. That's why I don't want to buy games like Fallout 3 for PS3. I just need those mods. They extend the life of the game and, in Fallout's case, offer a much more balanced gameplay experience.Pokebis wrote:

Dual SMG is absolutely the best. If it weren't for AP rounds, the magazine case could blow me. And dual HG actually isn't too bad. It's not like I really need grenades that often.
Fire HP/MC rounds with the appropriate terminals is absolutely devastating.

The arena actually has some enemies that drop really decent stuff, like various scrapped parts for tinkering. I've got 5 terminals linked to the arena right now, so I get a high drop rate and 3x XP, so that's cool.
So I want to know if anybody has tried jailbreaking their PS3 yet.
I believe it was first hacked a few months ago after 3 years+ of release, and it's possible to run homebrew and "backups" on both internal and external HDs. You need to have an older firmware somewhere along the lines of 3.41, and a downgrading tool has recently been released so jailbreaking is getting more mainstream. I haven't read too much into it, but I know of people hacking ps3's with iDevices, calculators, and some mod chip that I guess costs 150$. I dunno i will read up on it now and update this post with anything interesting. Anybody played around, though?

Dude, beating the game a second time is one of the easiest things on there. I get to ignore every sidequest and arena and I don't have to grind for any reason. I'm not really looking forward to Neverland though, but I bet it won't be too bad. If it wasn't for these trophies, I probably wouldn't be as ridiculously overleveled as I am right now, and I love being ridiculously overleveled.
Just saying it'll probably pull another 20-30 hours out of you!
I really hate being overleveled though, zero challenge.
Need to finish my third playthrough actually. I want to get to the last difficulty eventually, but that might take a while.

for hacking the ps3, i'm going to try and hack my shi**y old, only one in the house, sometime next week, i've heard a external harddrive is needed or somethin, so i'm gettin one, and yea, might screw my ps3 T___T
If I do get into PS3 hacking, I'll probably get a separate console just for that, depending on the detection capabilities.

Yeah, I figured you probably liked a challenge or something. I like being so overpowered that I can make any enemy my bitch though. I hate that it takes the same amount of XP to level up a grenade. They're so annoying to use.Ivalset wrote:

Anyway dude, the boss in chapter 11 was pretty kickass. He really threw me for a loop when he started teleporting and shit. And Zephyr's even more awesome than I thought now.
Yeah, I kind of disliked Zephyr the most out of the three at first, but by the end of the game he was pretty awesome.
The last chapter is just fantastic for all of the boss dialogue lines. I refuse to spoil any of it for you but you're in for a treat.
I don't see what's so annoying about grenades though. It's just like leveling pistols.

Well, you can't upgrade them, unless you want to waste your better grenades for leveling, so their charge speed is always shit, and even if you do a hero jump, it'll only hit whatever body part you're facing, so you've got to throw it perfectly at the main body, so only certain enemies are really good for leveling grenades.
Just jump over them and lob a few. Easy money.
I always used molotov cocktails because they fuckin' own all the time. Burn is too good.
also i feel like an arsonist using them

Maybe I hate grenades so much cause I'm always using Rookie Grenades to level up cause I don't wanna waste good grenades for grinding. But now I've got a shitload of hand grenades and they're much better.

Overkill has been achieved. Level 300 for everyone.

Ok, I'm triple-posting, but I'm tired of waiting for a combo breaker.
So that second playthrough of RoF was hardly 20 hours. It was more like 5 horus and 20 minutes. Got my Plat.
The day before I did that playthrough, I got Singularity since I haven't played a true, blue, and new FPS since MW2 (New Vegas doesn't count). I've played that a bit today and I gotta say it's not as crappy as I thought it'd be. The controls are actually really decent and smooth and the guns aren't bad at all. I half-expected this game to be a shitstorm of horrible, but it's really as decent as any other FPS I've played. I think awp might enjoy this game since it really tries to be like Bioshock. It's the the luggage searching, E99 upgrades (aka Adam upgrades), gun uprades, stuff like that. And the game's a little scarier than I thought it'd be, too. It's not like Dead Space, but I was tense in the beginning because someone designed a pea shooter to look exactly like a gun, then I got to use that pea gun to shoot things twice my size.

Oh, you played it again on normal didn't you? You're such a little bitch.

Well of course I did. I have absolutely no intention of wasting an additional cockload of time to beat hard. It's only a 1.2 damage multiplier difference anyway, and the only reason to beat a harder difficulty would be to keep beating harder difficulties, and I don't feel like beating the same game 10 times.
