[Deadly Cyclone]

Chain attacks to keep enemies in the air, rack up enough X points to pull off a Y button special, profit.

Got that much so far. I'm liking it even though I have to Google half the characters lol.

 

[AnkiRendan]

I know I they have no playable characters, but does Sengoku BASARA get any love in this game or is it completely absent?

Completely absent, I'm afraid.

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

Completely absent, I'm afraid.

Pure sadness.

Alas, I still don't know if I should get this now or wait for a price drop. Is it likely going to be a small print run? Also, is the LE gonna be really rare?

 

[Dereck]

At what level do multi-attacks unlock?

 

[BlackJace]

Got that much so far. I'm liking it even though I have to Google half the characters lol.

There's a menu option called Database, from there, select Crosspedia. It displays a biography of encountered characters.

 

[jorgeton]

It's crazy how they nailed the god eater burst stage. I was playing that right before I started this game and I love the little details they included, and that joke about god/gods made me lol. I have also yet to complete GEB, so the Lindow dossier was a massive spoiler..

My favorite moment so far has been reuniting the resonance of fate trio in battle. Closest thing we'll get to a sequel

 

[HawthorneKitty]

I like Neneko and her annoying voice/phrase, but I hate her Solo Attack.
Plus, I'm too lazy to go into practice mode to figure out why I keep missing; chapters take long enough as it is.

 

[Zonic]

What's the title of the music that plays when you do the special attack for Zephyr and Leanne? PxZ has reminded me how great the music from RoF was.

Hmm, is it Irruption ? I know that's what plays when it's their turn.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

Chapter 16 is the bane of my existence.

 

[Kincaido]

Awww yeah. Brave New World <3

Absolutely loving this game.

 

[Dandy Crocodile]

I got to see Kite and Skeith Data Drain opponents in 3D.
This game has found its way to my heart and I haven't even hit the Tales of Vesperia characters yet.

 

[Markun]

The first two hits of her Solo hits really low, but comes out fast so make sure the enemy is about to land if you want to hit with it. I'm not gonna lie though, it's a pain in the ass to cross attack with her solo.

Hmm, is it Irruption ? I know that's what plays when it's their turn.

Yeah, it's Irruption B. It's one of my favorite tracks in Resonance of Fate.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Awww yeah. Brave New World <3

Absolutely loving this game.

I was way more excited to hear their amazing battle music.

I'm really not sure why but I think Eins just looks AMAZING even though I know he's so dumb looking.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Man, Tron and Frank/Hsien-Ko work so well. dat horizontal attacks.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Hope I'm not the only one who killed Gozuki and Mezuki in Chapter 4. I want dat XP.

 

[Dandy Crocodile]

I'm really not sure why but I think Eins just looks AMAZING even though I know he's so dumb looking.

Yes, he's like a futuristic motorcycle and a reptile fused together with primary colors.
He's the monster-of-the-week character this game deserves.

 

[LuuKyK]

Man, Tron and Frank/Hsien-Ko work so well. dat horizontal attacks.

I am not feeling Frank/Hsien-Ko in the game. The seem kind of weak, especially the left + A attack where they just throw stuff at the enemy... idk, it misses a lot and its hard to time. I dont understand how are you pairing them with Tron of all people, her attacks are all ground based.

Hope I'm not the only one who killed Gozuki and Mezuki in Chapter 4. I want dat XP.

I did too. No way I am letting any XP/monster or briefcase/chest go in this game. I am going for them all.

 

[GuardianE]

Hope I'm not the only one who killed Gozuki and Mezuki in Chapter 4. I want dat XP.

I've been making sure to kill absolutely everyone except the "target" first.

I had the same pairing for a long time. Frank/Hsien-Ko + Tron is a great combination. Frank-Ko's combos tend to keep the enemy locked in place, just above the ground and centered between them, so a lot of support attacks will always hit... and then they're locked in place because of the Cross-X mechanic. Their Right+A attack does a good deal of damage, too.

You can take a look at the different moves in the menu and see what class each move is for damage (rated S-D) and exactly how much XP they build. The left+A might be better for XP building.

 

[Kincaido]

Fuck yes, Alisa get <3

Lol Vashyron with his goes both ways joke.

I was way more excited to hear their amazing battle music.

Love that theme too.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Why didn't they translate it as Alice in Wonderland? lol

Also, the demo stage is different from its in-game incarnation.

Since Tron's servebot grab attack triggers almost instantly the second you hit the button, if you time it pretty much with the first hit you can keep any enemy just locked at ground level for pretty much an entire combo

 

[Boss Doggie]

Reiji Arisu.

I always thought it was meant to be Alice lol

 

[MotionBlue]

This game is way more fun than it has any right to be. Not that far into it, and enjoying it so much. How long is it?

 

[SpikedGunner]

I'm playing the game in short sporadic sessions, but I'm liking it once I took the time to read through the tutorials in the menu to understand it more.

Also, my copy from NewEgg arrived, I've got to initiate the return since it's (bleh) the standard edition.

Hmmm, ok, I will try it then.

I may be wrong, but isn that kind of a joke over how Alice is pronnounced in japanese?

This game is way more fun than it has any right to be. Not that far into it, and enjoying it so much. How long is it?

Very long. People were saying 40 hours long iirc. Makes sense based on the fact that the game has 41 chapters that should take from 45 mins to 1 hour to complete...

 

[Teknoman]

I'm really not sure why but I think Eins just looks AMAZING even though I know he's so dumb looking.

Its the shades.

 

[Isaccard]

This OT is a nice change of pace compared to the demo thread of everyone taking a shit on this gem. It's not perfect but damn if it isn't awesome/fun.

 

[Videoneon]

I kill everything, yet the enemies still seem to be a couple levels highers than some of my units. However, I'm also trying to keep the levels relatively equal, so we'll see if I abandon that later. It may be all for nothing anyway, as for now the enemies aren't unmanageable and saving one's XP for healing skills or just using items suffices if you get in trouble.

I have yet to reach the

Spoiler

Ghosts 'n Goblins stage

which is reportedly a challenge, so I'm pretty excited to see how that turns out. And I'll be the game gets tougher once MAP attacks become a necessity.

Hmm, is it Irruption ? I know that's what plays when it's their turn.

Markun already got the song for the super attack down, but the other song that plays is Battle to Pay the Debt. I want to say that Zephyr/Leanne don't have preset songs because I remember Irruption playing once or twice when I was in chapter they're first introduced (and I didn't attach Vashyron), and that it cycles between either Battle or Irruption, but it seems like Vashyron always triggers Irruption to be played.

I'm really not sure why but I think Eins just looks AMAZING even though I know he's so dumb looking.

I think he looks fucking awesome and absurdly goofy at the same time. I totally feel the same way!

 

[Jintor]

Around what level do characters get multi-attacks? Spamming start but nothing appears to have them yet.

 

[zroid]

Seeing some of you guys enjoying this so much, I'm starting to regret my sort-of-last-minute decision not to purchase it. Eventually you realize there's no way you'll ever able to play the 25+ games you pre-ordered this year and some just have to get cut. PxZ was one of them.

 

[Dereck]

I understand that in able for Multi-Attacks to work you need to have your XP at 100%, but why does the choice never show up? Is there something else I need to do?

 

[LostAnkh]

Man, Tron and Frank/Hsien-Ko work so well. dat horizontal attacks.

RIGHT? I always get the crits whenever I use them, then it's just spam support for more meter.

I understand that in able for Multi-Attacks to work you need to have your XP at 100%, but why does the choice never show up? Is there something else I need to do?

It's based on their level, because you get new attacks at certain levels.

 

[Dereck]

you get new attacks at certain levels.

So it's completely random, OK.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

I love it when the Valkyria Chronicles 3 girl pulls out her

Spoiler

horn thingy in her down attack

.

 

[LostAnkh]

Still don't have X/Zero.

 

[Bururian]

Still don't have X/Zero.

You're going to have to wait a while.

 

[Bururian]

So it's completely random, OK.

It's not random, when the game showed you how to do it, you had to press start to activate it.

 

[Jintor]

How to check which characters have it?

 

[LuuKyK]

Wow @ the amount of enemies at chapter 9. Wtf? I wasnt expecting that much. Does the number grow as the game progresses?

I will stop for today. Its lots of fun though.

So it's completely random, OK.

It is not random if you unlock them at determined levels...

I only unlocked one new attack at the moment. ChunLi and Morrigan's down attack. They are level 11 I think.

 

[Bururian]

How to check which characters have it?

ahh, screw me. They don't all have it initially, Chris and Jill do, just for the demonstration. It should be listed under your available skills once you acquire it.

Wait until chapter 11. I must have gone through some thirty enemies.

 

[LuuKyK]

Well, i am ok with that. Chapter 9 had 26 iirc so thats not that much of an increase really.

I also like how the resonance of fate trio is the one that makes the biggest combos. They easily reach 100 hits now. Pretty crazy, but it makes sense.

there were also a number of bosses. 4 I believe. That gets a little pushy for me when the defeat conditions are exactly what the AI is trying to do.

 

[perorist]

There are levels with as many as 65 at end-game

 

[LuuKyK]

Oh. >_>

Yeah that makes it more complicated... I am expecting, though, that at that point you should be able to bring more characters to battle, right?

There are levels with as many as 65 at end-game

Oh god. @_@

 

[Bururian]

You'll be fine. It'll be a long battle, but if you're about 12+ for most of your units, you'll be fine.

 

[MisterLuffy]

I just got Kos-Mos/T-elos, I couldn't be more happier to have them.

 

[perorist]

Oh god. @_@

To be fair that number includes reinforcement waves, and you can clear the stage just by beating the boss, but there is a reason the game is 50-60 hours with only 41 stages &#9488;('&#65374;`&#65307&#9484;
