Good reviews of KH3 might have turned it around, but based on everything I've heard it embodies exactly the direction I was afraid the series was taking when KH2 started going too far up its own ass. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |

That was my chief nom, but apparently didn't get enough extra noms to make the cut.

masterpug53 02/10/21 10:39:24 AM #33 | Anime in a nutshell for me was this one half-remembered scene from a mech anime (probably a popular one, since it was on Adult Swim at some point); it had a fourteen-year-old girl in her underwear in a stasis tank, and someone offscreen was talking for a solid minute about how only fourteen-year-olds are capable of piloting the giant mechsuits. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |

It may not have been the perfect sequel to Chrono trigger but I will always love The melancholy feeling Chrono cross gives me I can get behind this. CC's soundtrack is perfect, I love the landscape and character aesthetics, and the Dead Sea is one of my favorite segments in gaming.

That train jumped the track while crossing an icy bridge and plunged into the gorge, killing almost 50 people in what was the deadliest recorded railway accident at that point in time, becoming known as the 'Angola Horror.' --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |

masterpug53 02/09/21 10:35:23 AM #41 | 1) Stony Glare (Chac, Final Fantasy X-2). It's possible to get status protection against the worst Bad Breath has to offer, even in FF X. No such luck with Stony Glare, which flips a giant middle finger at immunities. And given Chac's lightning-fast speed, she will probably shatter the afflicted character (permanently removing them from the fight) before you've had a chance to cure the petrification. 2) Snort (Final Fantasy 6) 3) Curse (Final Fantasy XII); this one puts Bad Breath to shame IMO, hitting you with Confuse, Poison, Sap, and the ever-horrible Disease. So not only are you likely losing control of your characters, their health is constantly bleeding away without any chance of restoring your dwindling HP until you cure the Disease effect. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |

masterpug53 02/03/21 10:06:33 AM #40 | Tyranthraxus posted... I still love the novelty of having to split up into 3 parties to defeat Kefka's Tower even after all these years. What sets it apart is that FF 6 was designed for the split-party mechanic much better than those misguided moments in which FF 7 and 8 attempted it. 7 and 8's combat / character strength relied heavily on Materia and GF / Spell Junctions respectively, and it didn't make sense to gimp you main party by splitting up these resources evenly between all available party members. FF 6 didn't have that problem, as combat abilities were innate to the character and Espers weren't nearly as essential for actual combat (and were much more plentiful and easier to swap out). --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |
