Tales of Graces F

Future Arc is awesome. I truly think the Lastalia Shaft Depths are my favorite area in any video game I've ever played... Just something about them. The sense of such surreal, empty beauty factored in with that lovely music with a hint of dread. It's wonderful. I went through it several times just to enjoy it over and over (and get materials for lookalike titles lol). Certainly lived up to my expectations. Hilarious skits, great new areas (Arcadia Garden was amazing, too), superior villain/final boss, nice extra additions (like Accel Mode and titles). I greatly look forward to finding my last Zhonecage items with my new power.

One question, though, since I've found many conflicting answers elsewhere: Does the difficulty you clear Fodra Queen on affect the Grade score for New Game+? The main answer I see--and what I want to believe--is that it doesn't and only what you last cleared Lambda on matters. But a few people claim their score was altered because they defeated Fodra Queen on a lower difficulty. This is important to me because there's no way I can beat her on Chaos like I did with Lambda.

And I really want to defeat her so I can see the ending and continue working on Zhonecage items/NG+ preps.

JP Guide says maybe. Fodra Queen on Chaos is definitely easier than Lambda Theo, unless you infinite combo him though. You can just rerun Future Arc after you've grinded some in Zhonecage too.

Arcadia Garden was a nightmare. I spent two hours running around in circles because I couldn't understand what it was I was trying to accomplish.


For anyone playing with another person, have they gotten the "use x character 100 times" titles playing as not-Player 1? =S I got to Zahvert with my friend and I still don't have that title for Pascal, which is to say no Recovery and no Charge+ =[
