have my copy so might check it out tonight if there is time. still busy with guests which is why have been stuck with handhelds for a while.
I should make some stupid pt like dorarnae with his migmy plus hero pt lol
The Yoko Tsukamoto artwork is seriously beautiful, it's what made me want to buy the game.
lol it was great. I am surprised how well I did overall but there was some scary moment. not sure it's the best idea to do that on your first playthrough though, that requiem or grand cross spell... lol
The "training" quest is actually pretty rough. Once you go underground, the fixed battles can vary between 3 lv7 pushovers to 9 enemies including 3 lv21 magic-users. Had two characters go down before I used the Divine Escape ability and ran back to town.
I think the best way to approach that quest is to grind a bit on the first floor, with a focus on using the Hide command to ambush enemies for equipment. Managed to get a really solid bow that way (which is a bit troublesome since I hadn't initially planned on using a Ranger). Just because they call it a training quest doesn't mean you can clear it in one go.
Also, having backup characters ready for when your mains have to rest is really necessary. It's taking 10-14 battles for people to recover at first.
(Having tons of fun with the game though. I'll have more time to play it over the next few days, so I can actually start making progress)
Yeah I dont think there is any other sensible challenges you can attempt past a migmy party unless you go and make every character a mismatched race on purpose though the migmy life restrictions are bad enough
well I was missing the item that raise monster lvl. would of been crazy with that I think hehe.
My main character dies and all my money is drained. Isn't there another way to revive it? How am I supposed to gather money if this happens even just once in awhile?
If anyone has any questions regarding the western Vita version, I'd be glad to answer.
How are the load times? That's the only Vita specific questions I can think of right now.
Does anyone know why Amazon won't ship this to the US? Weird.
Sorry to bring up platforms, but I was under the impression that this was headed to PC as well. Is that no longer the case or is it just a later release?
Sorry, I meant the Xbox One version from Amazon Japan.
I didn't realize this had an 8 hour trial. Man, 4 hours apssed by in the blink of an eye. It's been a while since I got into a dungeon crawler of this nature, but this game is freaking awesome. I'm sure I'm screwing my characters up bigtime, but so far it's been tough but fair difficulty-wise. The very beginning feels rough, but you're basically meant to die while you have Riu with you (she auto rezzes you after all) and then after grinding a little bit early on it's not required much of that since. I'm still only like level 8-9 of course.
Liking the long trial for this on the X1,even though some stuff I am not sure of,like why there is 2 rows of my characters in some menu screens,why one of my character can only defend etc etc...might grab it to keep playing once the trial ends.
Yeah I have been manually quitting the application for that reason, I'm over six hours already though =( game is very good. I half wish there was a sec sent faq out there but I'm also kind of glad I get to just experiment with everything myself. I'm sure my stats are all kinds of fucked but it never feels like you could permanently screw yourself so I don't mind. The only thing I wonder about really is killing/using butterflies I know you get a load of xp (tried one and reloaded after) but I just get the little sister bioshock vibe so I'm just not using them at all atm.yeah i heard it cant be bought overseas via amazon jp a friend tried it out
also heard that apparently its something amazon is doing of their own accord so its not like they went and asked pubs ahead of time about if they wanted it to be able to be sent to the us or not. So that would mean potentially amazon has their own guidelines for what can / cant be sent which would be stupid if so seeing how random it appears to be
Since I was unfamiliar with how timed trials worked and checked the official MS website apparently the timer still counts down if you are pausing the game to look through the main xbox menus and such. So only way to stop the clock is shut down the game totally.
Yeah the start is rough due to the poor equipment you have but as you start to fill out it gets better, till you get to your next dungeon then the running and screaming starts all over again lol

So how similar is this to something like Etrian Odyssey?

Managed to make some progress today. You eventually get to a point where they open up three new dungeons for you at once, so it's nice to have a little non-linearity. Getting some levels and some nice equipment from hiding.
Of course, out of the three new dungeons, one hasrotation spots and the other has one-way walls. Not sure if the third one has any gimmicks (outside of people shooting you with arrows). I don't mind the gimmicks, but it makes it harder to use the auto-walk feature.

That's weird, I got stuck after progression to a certain point in all three dungeons. I think I should defeat some Linear Types before progressing, but I've defeated all that show up on the map. Maybe they're hidden in the ambush spots.
there's a couple hidden in ambush spot and some other will appear in battle after a few turns or appear randomly when you get an encounter.
Does the story only advance after hunting down those Lineage Types hidden in battles and ambush spots?
it advance when you get certain divinity skill.
Is this game a decent intro for someone who's never done first person dungeon crawlers? I'm downloading the trial now just for the gorgeous art.

Yeah, I only took a few steps into each dungeon, didn't go past the first floor on any of them (actually spent more time hunting down the Rat Thief Lineage monster in the Mausoleum of Metal). So I hadn't ran into any blockers in the new dungeons yet. It is nice that you seem to be able to tackle them in any order, at least. I figured finding Lineage Types would be the way to progress things.
As for where they are, if you check the Wanted list, there's a little blurb for each Lineage type, which is a hint about how to find them.
Since you're downloading the trial, I guess you have a XONE. What other platforms do you have?

Put in an order for a physical version, cheaper than digital/about the same and it'd be a fun little piece to have. Downside will be waiting at least a month to get it :/ it's REALLY tempting to just bite on the digital, my trial has too short a time remaining to do anything useful. I really like this game
