That's a good point, too.

Perfect for getting some benefit (however diminished) of an intended effect to fit within 100 capacity. I like Kaiser Knuckles 75 + Delicate Hermes Sandals 25.
I'm pretty sure delicates were made specifically for gaming synthesized abilities. The concept is pretty cool, and it's a decent iteration of XIII's system.
Can't say I'm too fond of the accessory currency system, but I suppose it makes balancing sense. It fits with Toriyama's reluctance to offer 'best' gear, but I don't think the system is really deep enough (nor well explained) to merit such concerns.

It works just fine for now, I've had better builds but I like to use various parts of inventory for variety. Also using In Paradisum now for the hell of it even though I could just use Odinblade for more power or speed it all up with the easy choice, Romulus and Remus.

I feel like a total noob. Keep dying on the first boss 10 AF Yaschas Massif. His attacks that inflict Wound and LandShatter just totally destroy me. Is there anyway to avoid the latter attack without eating 200-300pts of damage? Wasn't this game supposed to be easier than FF13?

Just finished this up, around 30 hrs, loved it, the wild artifect side quests made it feel more open, last boss was fracking hard but managed to get through, probably made it harder on myself with my pardigms.
How many hours did it take some of you guys to finish?

45 hours. I took my time trying to capture monsters and finding fragments on my own.
Well I'm stuck fellow GAFfers. First of all I must say that I love this game, but, as any other Final Fantasy game, I'm horrible at it.
Here's where I'm stuck, I'm on EASY Mode even...
To make it worst I'm also terrible at choosing Paradigms, have no GIL left and my Monster may not be the best choice but it's my Healer.
If anyone can give me some easy-to-go tips, please do. I don't want to have another RPG unfinished on the last boss (AGAIN). Thanks in advance.

Last Boss, fighting CAIUS. I kill him one time, then another time and then I have a cutscene and I'm off to fight him again in valhalla. I know that after this there will be something like 3 dragons but I don't even reach there I die before that

After finishing up this game completely, does anyone have some suggestions for other JRPGs that are current gen? I have played and beat FF13,13-2, Resonance of Fate, and Eternal Sonata (Those are the big ones I can remember). Anything else along these lines that come highly recommended? Thanks.

Xenoblade-The best JRPG this gen.
There's also Lost Odyssey, Magna Carta 2, and Tales of Versperia.
Plus the NIS and Gust stuff that I don't know anything about.
All comes down to personal preference (Dark Souls for me).

Get an Xbox...
- Blue Dragon
- Vesperia
- Lost Odyssey
- Infinite Undiscovery
- The Last Remnant (also on PC)
Plus the many Euro RPGs available, and upcoming.
Buy Tales of Graces F next month, I'm serious.
Well he stomached Eternal Sonata somehow. IU is hardly as bad.

I wouldn't play IU, even if payed. The absolute worst jRPG this gen, to me anyways.

Do you have a 360? Get Tales of Vesperia (best JRPG this gen!)

Final Fantasy XIII.

I agree. If we want Xillia, Namco I'm sure is going to want to see some good sell numbers from Graces. Not a million dollar seller, but enough to even bother with it.
Indeed, or maybe X-2, maybe...
Agreed. Eternal Sonata is soooooooooo bad. It might actually be a good play to laugh at how bad and nonsensical it is. Also they make you play through the game twice to get 1000/1000, that's so evil of them.

If you don't play The Last Remnant on PC don't play The Last Remnant at all. (Also no 1st world citizen should be without an at least 2008-era gaming PC so no excuses.)
You should also buy it because, well, it's an incredible game.
It's weird how people always talk about buying Graces like they're taking one for the team, so they can get the game they really want. I don't understand why so few people actually want Graces.
Last Remnant, also best soundtrack

Um. I DO want Graces. But if Graces sells like shit, no way is Xillia going to come out. I'm sure Graces is an incredible game. I'm a fan of Tales, so I want every game.

IU would've been better had that utilized the multi-party system effectively. There's only one part in the entire game where it's actually useful, every other instance it's "Who don't you want in your party?".
That and the world was far too small, and the story too short. Otherwise it's an able game.
One 360 exclusive RPG i can't reccomend enough is the Last Remnant, which is also on PC. Such a terrific game.
It's still better than XIII and XIII-2.

Eternal Sonata was average to me. Way to short, and the ending was painfully bad. Still IU is worse.

Any JRPG with children (not teens, like I mean KIDS) is the worst. Except for ToV because that only had Karol and he's amazing.

Ever play Shadow Hearts?
It has one kid, but he has psychic powers and he isn't annoying at all.

So after a week of my eye surgery I'm back on track 
leveling the hell out of Serah and Noel before heading to the final boss to kick the hell out of it and finally see the ending that everyone is talking about, last time I was there all the roles levels were 39.... and he kicked me so badly, now heading there with all the roles on level 80, good enough ?

ALL roles on 80? You're gonna kill it in like, a minute.

Will do.
Also to those asking, I don't have an Xbox or Wii. I mainly PC game and have generally stuck with the PS consoles (and a SNES!).

I will be happy enough if I finished him in 10 minutes.... because the final boss is annoying as hell.

Well if you only have a PS3. You are kind of fucked in my opinion.
Hopefully you have Valkyria Chronicles but it's not really inline with party based RPGs.
Yeah, I have VC and kind of figured I have played a lot of what is available (the good stuff, anyways). Thanks for the suggestions, though.
