What are you playing? - Smooth Criminal - 2011-08-01
Back from a trip, played Catherine where I left off when I got home. Still not done with my first ending for the game yet, but close now.
Sarah Wrote:I beat it yesterday with the best ending (True Lover trophy) and saved everyone (on easy). Going through normal now, trying to stay in the middle but it's pineappleing hard to guess what other people are saying in the confessional sometimes. No matter what, I'll get a new ending so it's not that big a deal but it would be nice to get the best middle ending so I don't have to try this pomegranate again (though there are 8 endings so...)
It's a really good game but it takes a ridiculous left turn at one point and I feel like that hurt it a lot.
Make sure you get the true lover ending before you stop playing though, Greg. Erica has a pretty revealing scene
Also Babel is haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard. I can scale blocks like no ones business in Golden Theatre but my best on Babel (Altar) is 101
Are you allowed to hop into a save file before the last boss fight before all the choices so that you can just hop in and go in for the endings from there?

Not sure, haven't tried it. I do have a save file at 9-2 though so I can try it, but the last night is stupidly long. I'm also a little wary of trying it because the game has a system data file and I don't want it to screw with that and somehow overwrite all of my progress from my normal playthrough.
edit: Got "True Freedom." Not a good one.

Playing Catherine demo now, and I'm loving it. Probably gonna have the real thing later this evening if all goes well.
What do you guys think of it so far?
What are you playing? - Sarah - 2011-08-01
Well, I've seen 3/8 endings and while the first and best was completely satisfying, the other two were pretty zany. It's a great game with a really intense story, though. I don't want to say much more about it because of serious spoilers.
Also, really excited because I just found out Breath of Fire IV is coming to the PSN on August 16th. Must get! Love BoF4. (I said BoFIII earlier in this topic while comparing it to Sands of Destruction, but I meant IV. Though 3 is sort of the same)
What are you playing? - Rob - 2011-08-01
BoF 3 is best BoF

Kinda jealous of you guys playing Catherine. Frys.com had the Deluxe edition $20 off so I ordered it from there, but now I'm on backorder and it probably won't be back in stock, so... Couldn't play it till I get home in another week anyway, so I guess I'll just get the regular edition somewhere else.
In any case, been playing Recettear for some reason, as well as Link's Awakening on 3DS. Will probably go and finish up Radiant Historia within the next few days.

Beat Catherine with the True Lovers ending, planning on replaying and getting the other endings pretty soon. Also starting up my 2nd playthrough of Tales of Graces F. I've been up and about lately so the game I've been playing most is Pangya PSP, still trying to get all the costumes and accesories for every character

Got my hands on Cladun x2. My impressions so far.
Let me get the dissapointment out of the way first: No multiplayer dungeon running in this one. Only can invite players to your tavern ala animal crossing. Lame. Also, a minor factor... the music, I loved the soundtrack of the first, but 5 hours in I've only liked 1/6 of the new bgms. normally I don't really care *that* much... but i really adored the music style of the first and was looking forward to more of that. I might find a few more winners though.
GOOD STUFF: In true NIS fashion, the first game had a lot of annoying elements, but they addressed them well in the sequel. Kinda like how Item world was a pain in Disgaea but was improved dramatically in 2 (among other things).
Jumping is no longer animation locked, you can now short-hop and control direction a bit. max jump distance is also dramatically improved making jumping over fires/traps much less of a horrible pain. Also, the severely limiting SP/skill system got a huge overhaul: instead of needing to use artifacts to level skills, the skills now level up as your character does. The main artifacts now reduce the level by a certain % (to make it more spammable yet weaker) or increase it for the opposite effect. Monsters now drop Sp orbs when killed, so you no longer feel crippled when you decide to use anything higher than a level 1 skill and run out of SP too quick. Also there's a SP debt artifact that lets you borrow a sub unit's SP till you reach a limit and go into a forced cooldown. All in all skills are much more user friendly <3
There's 3 new weapons now too, spear, bow and dagger. Spear is absolutely amazing when it comes to attack speed. It can hit things slightly diagonal to your position and a space away on the first hit. but not directly in front of you until the second hit. Be careful with mobs that like to get in your face. Bows are just what you'd expect: rapid tap shots or charge a half second and shoot for real damage. They're fun and boost speed too (no shield use obviously)
The make your own character feature got expanded a great deal, including the ability to make 3 step animations for various parts for walking, running and idling, even death pose. (think wings, waving hair and the like) We can finally make our own weapons/armor now to overlay existing gear. It's really amazing now. The funniest addition is the ability to use MML to make your own 8-bit dungeon tracks to grind to. I kinda wanna give it a shot, looks capable, i might have to practice and study a bit though.
Ok done gushing about this game now.

I've been playing Path of Exile. Needless to say, if you like Diablo, it will be right up your alley.

I've picked up Legend of Heroes: Trails In The Sky. It seems fun so far but it gets kinda dragging after a while... I'm not sure on how I feel about a 60+ hours game right now.
Has anyone played Knights In The Nightmare? I got so confused that I couldn't even finish the Tutorial, and I'm not so dumb at games >_>

I couldn't make it past the first few levels, it was just too much all at once
