Damn, all of these new options makes me feel.....overwhelmed O__O

Yeah they really nerfed the shit out of throw spells. I guess they were pretty strong in the first game.

That slow-ass throw animation spell.
Well not only that, they've also give limitation on the same type of offering, another factor which makes throw spells so broken in the vanilla version. You could brought all of the element and decimate everything in process. As a throw spell user this is quite a bummer, but I guess that mean I've just to adjust my overall offering combination.

 

[hurzelein]

So no point in bringing throw offerings over from vanilla to delta? Haven't switched yet.

What would you suggest?

No, they still powerful and useful, especially for breaking high parts. They're just now seems incapable of inflicting element ailment and thrown at slower rate, unlike in the vanilla where you can almost ailment-lock an archfiend by throwing its elemental weakness with throws spells. If you are a throw spell user, you'll get to it, and it is best for you to join Grim faction since the sigil that enhance throw spells now fall under neutral category (I like it since I don't have to worry about the goddamn score).

 

[erpg]

The slower animations on throw spells have completely thrown off my counters. I've been getting hit a lot more often.

 

[ZeroAKA]

(I like it since I don't have to worry about the goddamn score).

I think score still matters for Grim despite what the game tells you. I'm getting more awards if I fulfill more objectives in a quest.

Blankets have been nerfed too.

Yeah, I guess it's still affect what Im getting afterall.....
Fuck, that unscathed score will haunt me until I'm done with this D:

 

[DrROBschiz]

Looks like I am going to have to completely rethink my fighting style in Delta

Thats a plus since everything seemed obsolete next to throw spells

 

[MagiusNecros]

I seem to use high grade Stonefist spells most of the time. Is their any specific spell that is good for breaking parts?

 

[ikariX]

Well here in PAL land there is no physical copy. Like every damn vita jrpg lately. Same with Blazblue : CP. Had to import

I always think that throw spells is good for breaking parts, but after 1 piggy heads left on Little Three Pigs and just two trumpets destroyed on Musician of Bremen fight, I think it isn't that good for breaking part :/
But I guess elemental weakness is a huge factor for destroying parts.

NA doesn't have one too, it's Asia that being superior with physical copy this time.

Well the one part I hope to break is on something with no weakness. Guess I need higher Magic levels. Drake eggs on the one I'm going for is unreliable since the thing moves around so much.

Do i have to

kill Samilia?

Which archfiend is it? Some archfiend does have some parts that's hard to reach with ranged weapon, especially lower drum of Musician of Bremen. Constantly casting sphere of deflection pretty much tells you to diversify your weapon.

hahahahahah...........the US is suffering with PAL Land. Strange that it's only digital for EU\US.

Well I'm from South-Africa and our region code is PAL also. Damn....wanted a physical copy.

 

[ZeroAKA]

SSD was supposed to be out on Asian (R3) PSN today, but it's not ready due to technical issues (see comment #10). SCE sure did a great job handling the release of this game. ~_~

Druid God Soul. Trying to break the cursed part on it's head. It's the story mission where you don't outright kill it but get it more to half hp. Unless there is another pact to fight it in. Broke the Wing though. You basically need a ranged weapon for it.

Any one else playing on a vita slim notice that some of the areas looked completely washed out, like the color is light/faded(if that makes sense) I have been switching between wide color and standard and have noticed this. Funny thing is the librom/setting screens look great.

Such is a life without OLED. I'm coping.

 

[Augemitbutter]

physical asian version is already out ;p

where? nobody seems to have it. can you just use your euro/american save with it?

 

[Kurod]

So close to killing the

Dragon

What's your build like? I think I still need to level up a bit.

I'm level 23/23 neutral arm using force/weapon damage buffs. Also the gamble +85%damage -100 health per cast sigil for palm.

I'm in. Feel free to do whatever you want.

 

[Xenoflare]

I know people probably already asked this many times....

But how does experience work out when you choose fate? Do you just receive an even number amount of exp for both life and magic?

I'm short on cash right now so this is going to wait, but I'm really curious.

Btw how is the "graphical upgrade"

 

[NegativeCero]

So I guess going neutral is the way to go this time around? Still super early, but I'd rather not plan for chaos and find that it's more difficult to survive as a glass cannon.

I don't think it matters so much as in vanilla. I guess it depends on what style of playing you like best. I know divine gets extra bonuses to spears, neutral to weapon, and dark to arm.

[Manac0r]

Really glad I picked up SSD. Despite buying the first on release day, it never really clicked. Enjoyed the aesthetics and story, but combat felt off to me. This game fixes that, the combat for me, is clicking. I feel more empowered with more control and choice. Also there are enough tweaks to the story (I have forgotten a lot) that this feels like the game I wanted in the first place.

Also the graphics are cleaner and feels more responsive. All in all a worthy purchase.

 

[MicroByter]

Vita 2000 owners - in the options -> Color Settings

You can adjust your color space from Normal to Wide which seems to lower the contrast and brightness as well. It seems to be geared for LCD screens.

Good games, spannicus/baekshi/HypnoDarkrai. First disconnect ever, but I had to go soon anyways. >.<

I'll probably be on again later tonight.

Had a blast. See yall on another time then.

 

[midasmulligan]

This game is so damn feature rich anyone know what's up with the AR cards that let you summon sorcerers and look for memories? Don't forget to leave gifts for other players too

boss for the Drake Helm, which was a lot easier than expected. I don't think I'll ever use it though.

Nice. What build did you use? I'll try again tonight when I get home from work.

25/25, force/weapon buffs, attack-boosting palm, about the same as you. I also used Vimblossom Fruit to boost my attack every time he went into the air.

 

[Baust]

Finally taking a break after a looooong play session.

I don't know what they did, but they've made it much more addicting. I'm definitely loving all the changes they've made.

 

[NegativeCero]

I'm jealous of you guys right now. Really hate that I have to finish finals this week and all I want to do is play this game.

It sounds like Borderlands 2 isn't that good on Vita. If you've never played it, and have no way of playing it on a console or PC, it'll probably still he fun.

I just bought SS Delta last night and let it download while I slept. I'm thinking I should load up my original SS to make sure the save data is intact first.

Borderlands 2

If you've played BL2 on another system before, buy this. If you've never played SS before, buy this. If you've played both BL2 and SS before, buy this. If you've played SS and but not BL2 before, buy BL2... maybe.

For what it's worth, I've played both BL2 and SS before, but I haven't even bothered to apply the BL2 patch since getting SSD.

Pay this man hees money...Agreed. played bl2, much prefer this to it, though it's not a bad game in its own right

 

[xXDGFXx]

The lack of JP audio is disturbing me... a lot... Everything but the BGM and SE is mute. Quite uncomfortable for me...

 

[dgenx]

forgot to mention i already have the original SS but haven't played it , is Delta THAT much better?
