Superstar is 5-Stars rating on a Final Boss. I got it the 1st time, but when you beat the game you can go back and fight the boss multiple times, so no sweat if you don't get it at first.

Ah cool, I have had a bazillion retrys so far so im glad its nothing to do with that.
I'm at chapter 5 currently.
The battle system is pretty interesting. I definitely think it adds a lot more action to the game. I think the story is absolute crap. I mean who the hell wrote this. It's just a whole bunch of ridiculous babble. And I am kind of getting bored of this giant linear tunnel of a map.
I do have a question. I' keep using the Libra technique but can't find if and where to find the enemy display information that Libra is supposed to reveal to me.

What scares me more about this articles is the implication that Toriyama is gonna work on another mainline Final Fantasy.
I guess it was to be expected, but it's still scary. Like being stranded on an island in the middle of a hurricane scary.

Sorry if its redundant but is there any benefit in not using Auto battles (besides fun factor)? Im 7 hours in and havent tried -> abilities once yet.
Yes, especially if you're a buffer or debuffer. If you're a Commando, I hate it when the Auto-battle uses Ruin, so I Attack x4. As a Ravager, I hate when they cast spells and mix in strike abilities. So I just -strike x4.Lion Heart said:
Seems to work out better, but the difference is minimal if you're a RAV/COM, at least so far.

very well written by game standards, but they have little to do with the game, it's almost they are totally diferent worlds which occur they share the same characters.
LO is filled with classical JRPG fanfare, it's not particularly bad, isn't good either, actually FFXIII world,characters and main plot are way more engaging IMO. So if you gonna choose between LO and FFXIII by those standards you might get FFXIII, IMO of course.

There are similar birds grouped with 2 other enemies who cast Death which is pretty devastating... and it's not like I'm 'under-levelled' or whatever. :|

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Phew, just woke up. Time for day #3!
Also, YES I meant chapter 12 not chapter 2 in 50 hours :lol
Oh, is my TV going to die anytime soon or what? The game gets blurry sometimes, I don't know when. Is it like this for everyone?

Yes, same chapter. I know which pack you are talking about. Crazy idea to pair them together.
Not sure which chapter I'm in (4? 5?), but I just beat
Really enjoying the game so far. Pacing works well, being able to avoid many battles fairly easily is quite nice to speed things up and increase the challenge. Game's not too hard so far, but the combat system is incredibly fun (even when it's 2p). Favorite battle so far is that
boss. Had some good fun with micromanaging paradigms for that one. Combat is very fast-paced, while remaining pretty compelling from a tactical standpoint. I think this game will really appeal to players who really like being able to customize and experiment builds on the fly, which paradigms allow. First thing I do whenever I get a new set of party members is going into the paradigm menu and plan out and create new paradigms for them, figuring out beforehand which combinations would work best for that group, what contingency I should have prepared for which circumstance, and so on. Good fun, and really allows you to try things out, since you can just change things around right after.
2nd boss theme is absolutely phenomenal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDHN2pz2gzI
(1st boss theme and battle theme are nice too)
Can't say the story is some awesome work of art or anything, but I'm not sure it's necessarily worse than previous FF's.

What games did Toriyama direct that was actually well received? I don't think there are any though.
Good thing I had very very very low expectations with FFXIII. I'm having fun with the game despite its faults.

He's only directed a few games...X-2 (a fan favorite), Revenant Wings, and XIII. Oh, and Blood of Bahamut. Which he probably did while FFXIII was progressing slowly.

I went the opposite route after 2 failed attempts. Cheap difficulty increases suck.Castor Krieg said:

I don't get this association of "blurriness" with the 360 version. With my setup (720p DLP TV, 360 set at 720p over HDMI), the image typically looks very clean (cleaner than, say, MW2, which I think actually had a higher resolution).
But when the resolution does impact the image quality, it tends toward jagginess, which is rather the opposite of blurriness... at least in my setup.
I guess it's just that one guy who keeps saying the 360 version is "blurry" anyway.

God no, that would be a total disaster. I've used the same save file throughout the entire game.Coop said:
Didn't see a response, so I'll ask to see if anyone knows.
Is it easy to upgrade weapons in Chapter 9?
Should I move forward and find more enemies?
Is it easy to upgrade weapons in Chapter 9?
I keep getting credits and such from soldiers, but after applying the Vibrant Ooze and getting the X3 exp bonus, I'm just not sure how to go about getting the items I need to make use of that exp bonus. I can get a Super Conductor part of the time from this one enemy in the soldier quarters (first huge hall where soldiers respawn), but that's only part of the time and I only have found one.
Should I move forward and find more enemies?

Also, FFX-2 and FFXII: Revenant Wings.
Wow he directed the worst FF game...
Who designed the battle system? that's the true hero of the game!
Also I have a few questions regarding weapon and accessory upgrading, now that I'm on chapter 11:
- When you can transform items into another items, or rather what level is necesary?
- What accesories are the best to upgrade, there are a fuckton of them and I don't know what should I focus.
- it's "3x" the maximum multiplier?

I'm sure this has been asked before, but i've yet to figure this out.
In battles, sometimes the chain gauge goes down very quickly...sometimes it goes down very slowly. I haven't seen any abilities that specifically trigger this, so what causes it to go down slowly? It's anoying as hell in battle when I cant stagger a bad guy and have no idea why.
