    The Authoritative Final Fantasy & Bravely Default thread

    I bought one not long ago and I think it was worth it. Definitely more worth it than a PS4, at least for now. I'll pick up a PS4 next february/march or so for Bloodborne and Persona 5 and all that shit that's coming out but atm there's just not much worth it unless you want to play Destiny or...

    Through steam I think it is, maybe. Other than that, you can make a trial account and download with that. Can't download through the launcher without an active sub.

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Yeah I guessed it was pyramid, started bog Oh well guess there's something good waiting. Don't think I'll replace my current 2H, it's just insanely strong, there was even an achievement for it, it's like 45-90 or something dumb, crits stuff for 400-450 with it.

    Have you played after 2.1 or whatever patch they patched net code changes? I play from europe and never feel it's laggy or that the net code is shit. I've done every EX primals including Titan EX which I'd say is very ping sensitive(since everyone stacks on top of each other so when he does...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Finished cemetary, not sure what's up but there were very very few secrets. I scoured every wall as usual and caught a few but overall in the 3 levels of the cemetary I found like 4secrets, so not sure if it's just a low secret area or if I missed a bunch. There aren't really any puzzle or...

    They confirmed Dark Knight for the expansion. Also are nerfing Atma step of the relic quest during 2.4. Animus might also be nerfed as a byproduct of tomes changes, so should be easier to get that done on Ninja. Novus still garbage though.

    Oh and in case of, if you missed the hint, I believe the statue is on a part of that zone that isn't directly accessible, you have to go through the sewers. Make sure to check it out. Good luck with the mines btw, there's A LOT of secrets and weird shit going on, and it takes fucking forever to...

    Well catching up is fast(plus there's a gear bump like in 1-2weeks so most of the current gear will become worthless), they fixed the moving out of fire shit pretty much though animations are still like behind the damage check so you still get hit by stuff you're out of by the time the animation...

    Eh, nothing really does big dmg to my wizard and more energy is pretty much always better, but you do get more health and the 10resist all thing which helps a bit. I'd go alchemist over rogue in backline though, with 5alchemy you can make +stat potions but the herbs are obviously limited for it...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    From the error message they said it was my HDD failling but not really having issues with it so don't know, anyway not a big issue as I didn't like my party that much and like my new one a lot more. It's basically perfect, at least with my current knowledge. Depending on what ends up being...

    During coil they show the new Allagan gear, during Shiva they show the new 2.4 gear(probably new tome gear, could be dungeon sets but unlikely). And yeah the story is ramping up for the expansion stuff it seems, pretty cool to see. As for Atma, I actually farmed atma since I came back and...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Not sure what circle guards are, unless you mean those earth elems? Didn't have much problem with those, just sat my ass in the entrance so they funelled one by one and killed them super slow since most weapons do shit dmg. I was making potions as the fights went on hehe. There's a ton of...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Well the scroll makes it super easy, I figured it based on the 3 coded places(there was one code in the forest early in the game and I had made a map note of it so I could compare), though a bunch of it was trial and error. Path of the Eagle was pretty obvious to me, I did spend like 10mins on...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    If you're stuck in a place, you could go in another. Not sure about the bog area I think I went there to check out the place but it had a statue saying the way was sealed and the answer was in the archives so I left to do other stuff. Did find the archives actually so now I "think" I have the...

    It wasn't BiS until this patch, and only barely(they added a new tier that raises the Relic to the same ilvl as the raid drops that had been accessible since 5months prior, and since you can customize the stats on it, you can eliminate stupid stuff and get only the best but if the raid weapon...

    Elder Scrolls VI - Argonia

    Well assuming they go that way, I guess they'll still find ways to make it varied and stuff. Kinda like how skyrim isn't just "WHITE EVERYWHERE LULZ". I mean it's a lot of snow but there's a bunch of other shit too. They haven't confirmed shit though, for all we know we could be going back to...

    My quicksave just got corrupted, so that apparently can happen, I don't have a recent save other than that so yeah. Make sure to do regular full saves.

    Heroes of the Storm

    Dota2 has had smartcast for like a year. Thought it can't be configured as well directly and you need to use macros if you want to smartcast on release only rather than on keypress. Could use smartcast since forever using macros too.

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    There's plenty of encounters where you can't dodge though, by design, so if your frontline isn't tanky enough to not die in one hit, you're gonna have a bad time. Knights I don't know though, supposedly their evasion bonus is buggy, though they still get good health per level and protection +1...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Few things for party creation: You need 1pt in light weapons/heavy weapons to use specific weapons of that type, and I assume more for the higher level weapons, so you probably want to pick one style and stick to it. Heavy weapons are str based, Lightweapons are either dex based(daggers)...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Yeah the reviews have all been very good on this from what I've seen. Plenty of good points too from people who played the first, for example secrets aren't all the same switch in the wall textures like in the first one, which makes them harder to find and the class progression offers a lot more...

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    It's shorter, though not by a whole lot. Iirc first playthrough of both the first games was around 35hours for full completion and not optimizing. Unless he means 25hours for all the playthroughs(not sure if it resuses the system where you finish at half max lvl, then finish the game again etc).

    Wii U

    Yeah fuck that, it looks ugly as shit and I'd need to buy a new console just for it(at least until they announce other exclusives), might as well look for a Wii copy at that point and get my Wii out of the basement. Dolphin's good enough, I just need to get motivated enough to download/install...

    Wii U

    Yeah it has quality games but a lot of them I don't really care about. I haven't cared about Mario in a long time, Skyward looks like it got mixed opinions about it, Mario kart don't care about, Smash bro I don't really care about either so yeah, that kinda limits my options. Maybe once...

    Wii U

    From people who played the japanese version, it's one of the best gam released in the past few years, but yeah, Wii U. Then again from what I read the game wouldn't have been finished anyway if Nintendo didn't come and throw some money at them, so it's not like the exclusivity deal is killing...

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    Eh, I guess it qualifies since one of the best is a fairly broad statement, it's a pretty great game but I don't think it would be in my top 50, or maybe near the bottom. But definitely worth playing, especially since they're on sale on steam all the time with all the DLC for peanuts and there's...

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    Season pass is cheaper than the DLC one by one. However it's more than the DLC one year from now during a steam sale, so kind of a matter of wether you think you'll play the DLCs as they release or just plan to revisit the game later when all the DLCs have been released(and I guess wether or not...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    The balance argument is a decent one, infinite healing leads to well, immortality, besides instant kill mechanics, which are not fun. This is a bit like Demon Souls vs Dark Souls, while Demon Souls had many better mechanics than Dark Souls, the change from infinite consumables to limited flask...

    Don't think that's a draft issue but a puppey sucks at every hero but 5ish issue, and 3 of these are junglers(chen, enchant and enigma). Was that was in Na'Vi too, when the strats revolving around these heroes are strong he looks like a good player, when they're not he looks like garbage and...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah I would assume ST lock would be removed, but they might keep it to stall gear catchup progression, so you'll only be able to upgrade to i100 soldiery and still need several weeks to get 110 sands(or well a lot of hunts), while on the side every few weeks you'll get the new I guess i120...

    Persona timer is locked to your actions though. If you don't go into the dungeon/back to your room, your time stays the same. Do have to plan ahead and shit however I guess. FF LR timer is only relevant the first few hours of the game, which makes the mechanic even more stupid since it's...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They didn't really create those, unless you mean in general. Those are FF6 iconic bosses, they have been then added to some of the later FF(or remakes of the older ones), so it's pretty nice to see them. They're even fought in the same colisseum that they end up working in near the end of FF6...

    Don't think anyone gives a shit if you use Unity, it's a great cheap engine to make indie/low budget games with. People give Brad shit for making videos with STOCK unity assets, and pretending that's their game. If you don't bother making anything and just copy paste bits of stuff you downloaded...

    It's dungeon drops gear, it's better than crafted, fuck melding low lvl stuff plus the materias are expensive. It's getting converted once I'm done but no point in converting now. I don't have full sets mind you, just a bunch of pieces at various levels, rest I'll craft once I know what type of...

    They really haven't said shit about the requirements, the stats, the armor type or other important details. As I explained also before in this thread, it's possible, though unlikely, that you'd need the story quest advanced enough to unlock the class(the trainers are shown during the Leviathan...
