marchionessofmustacheOK, I did a little more I Am Setsuna and it's already improved a bit haha.
How do you pronounce this name??? He's kinda cute I guess. He's like the Auron of this game in... too many ways. The story is still kinda throwaway FF10 knockoff. Like the main plot is just FF10 and then the subplots has literally the depth of FF1's plots... "I need this item go here" "I need this person go here" like they are just very obviously excuses for you to go to the next area? It doesn't really feel like a story, just like someone made a Generic RPG Subquest Generator, and this was the output... with an overarching theme of 'pilgrimage to sacrifice yourself to stop the bad' X_x;
The monster designs are still lacking in creativity... now in addition to panguin, we have like... berd, walros, tortle, seel, rabbet, etc. lol. Not a single bug-like enemy, either!! Just like random arctic-theme animals with a weird color or patter or deformity to make it ~fantasy~
TOTALLY LEGIT ALIEN EXOTIC SPECIES 'DUGG'!! NOT A DOG AT ALL!!! ORIGINAL THE CHARACTER DO NOT STEAL!!!!
Anyway, suddenly some new mechanics were introduced... basically you can like augment your abilities, and how they are augmented are based on which accessory you're wearing. Each accessory has one or more augments it can give to abilities, and then after battle, if you used that ability, there's a chance that you can add that augment to the ability.
In other words, it's pretty much just like mutations from Final Fantasy Explorers lol...
Also you can only put so many augments on an ability, too.
I was a little disappointed to find that only certain characters can equip certain abilities... like each ability is character-specific. I didn't notice while shopping for them and made like 3 of each lol. But it's still good to have more than one because if you want to do different sets of augments on them, you can. You can even change the names of them like in FFE...
I'm kinda sad that I don't have more available combo moves. I'm starting to realize that the game wants you to swap out characters as you play I think, which is nice. But I can only really combo with mask dick + green bear girl or mask dick + howdoyousayit beardman, so you're kind of forced to keep mask dick around. I do like Aura ability (it heals everyone lol) but I don't want to get rid of Setsuna because she has lightning stuff which is cool. So I just swap out beardman and bear girl... There's also some new kid that will probably become playable soon, too...
I don't really care for green bear girl's (lack of) personality/character, but she has time-based abilities, including Slow and Demi! So I want to use her I guess... Also, Slow is the only reliable debuff I have right now and I need debuffs for debuff kills.
The graphics are still very hit or miss. Some really beautiful areas, then you get crap like this:
Looks like something out of Ys. now, Ys just has meh graphics and that's cool, but this game has great art sometimes and then... that... X_X;;
Also I keep screwing up my chances to get special drops from bosses lol. Like Slow ran out JUST before I killed the stupid turtle, and even though I hit it over and over with lightning, it was like the one dumb physical attack with mask dick that I did that ended up killing it, so I didn't get the Light Kill... nor the Debuff Kill...
I kind want to pay more attention and redo my augments on the abilities (I can't remember what this is actually called, because it all has weird names, like an ability is seriously something like "Commanding Spiritnite" or something... and augments are like "Added Fluxations" lol. I don't even want to say those things XD But I'll get used to it and probably start saying them.
But yeah, this is either going to turn into a really tedious item-hunting fest, or it's going to be an interesting game with fun mechanics.... stayyyyyyyyyy *morolians pop out* tuned.
