RAGE AGAINST STAR OCEAN 3 (SPOILERS IF U HAVENT PLAYED IT)

[blairx06]

This is my rage focused fully on star ocean and only star ocean

yeah this game is old but the beginning was so good... I loved the battle system... voice acting, horrible as usual but hey, it was fun...  then the game goes downstream from, u guessed it, the 4D part of the game... why japanese people why lol??? The storyline was getting so good, Fayt is a living weapon (which goes with my love of main charaters being special)... and the storyline was progressing very nicely but no, we couldn't keep it in THIS friggin universe... we had to get weird lol and, oh yeah, we had to get hard as hell too lol... I still beat u star ocean 3 but I still have no idea why... I lost apart of my soul playing this game lol....

... ... ...  ... why japanese people why lol??? ...  lol and, oh yeah lol... I still beat u but I still have no idea why... I lost apart of my soul playing this game lol....

The new blairx06 dude sure is on a roll...

[blairx06]

Not really new... been on this site for years as an alias or a guest or I just read the forum for new info on tales games.. Back to the subject now, Star Ocean, you wounded me 

[Cless]

I think he was getting at the comment that could be interpreted by some as racist... but I could be wrong.

[blairx06]

Naw, not racist (trust me)... Japanese peolpe (square-enix) made the game so i was just imaginatively asking... No need to overanalyze my words lol

[Goshi]

I swear, every topic you've started involves you trolling a well known RPG series.

I bet your next topic will be something like "XENOSAGA SUX 'CUS CUTSCENES ARE LIKE 4 HOURS!!!!!1"

You should try to calm down when naming topics and doing first posts or maybe just make one whole general thread about it.

[Leroy]

I bet your next topic will be something like "XENOSAGA SUX 'CUS CUTSCENES ARE LIKE 4 HOURS!!!!!1"

I'll start that one if he doesn't.

[blairx06]

Well, actually I liked xenosaga till episode II... MGS series has long cut-scences and I still like it... anyway, I warned you before you read it... My title has RAGE in it not nice,fluffyness against Star Ocean, RAGE lol!!!!!!! Anyway, its a video game and it probably shouldnt offend people (I hope) because we're mature enough lol to look past my controversial post lol...

ANYWAY,  can the next person to respond to this post talk about the suckiness/ or GRreatness of this latest (and hopefully last) installment of Star Ocean??

[supersonic1453]

I liked Star Ocean.  I just didn't like the item creation system and the unnecessarily long mini games.

[Phren]

I'll start that one if he doesn't.

Haha, Somehow I knew that was coming.

As for SO3, the 4D thing really pissed me off, but more then that, it pretty much outright killed a sequel.  ____ gets destroyed, the whole ______ is nothing more then a program? Yup, looks like exanding on that is pretty much pointless. Terrible too, because the battle system in SO3 (the main reason I PLAY SO to begin with) was a big letdown.

I was disgusted by being in Elicor sooo long. I didnt like Adray. Mirage should've been playable from the jump, not just some badly thrown in extra into the dc. The 4d stuff... Well, to matrix like for my tastes, but at least I was glad to be out of Elicor.

Peppita and Sohia should stuck along from the beggining, but they had to be seperated because of that stupid battle trophy.

I wish they would've axed Adray and spent that time adding Mirage in more of the game's cutscenes and giving the optionals more to say. At most, they just repeat things.

Battles were really fun tho. I didnt like how there was always a big jump in difficulty at the next area.

[supersonic1453]

I would have been so much happier if I could have at least picked to have Adray and Mirage instead of having them forced onto me.  I really wanted Albel, Nel, Peppita, and Roger in my party.

[Cless]

It's funny cause Adray and Mirage were added to the director's cut and made manditory.

There were no optional characters originally... the DC should've made it so that you could choose three of those five.

Plus Mirage as far as I could tell was nothing more than a clone of Cliff for all practical purposes. Although Cliff was pretty damn awesome, I didn't really feel the need to have another one of him...

Didn't really use Adray at all... first time through I pretty much stuck with the Fayt/Cliff/Nel party the game gives you at the beginning...

[chingi1]

Yeah, if they didnt bother w/ Adray, Mirage could've more unique. She has the 2 moves she "taught" to Maria and almost all of Cliff and like one of her own. Her moves have a different element attached if it is elemental, but that is much. Mirage also has more mp and can dish better MP damage. f

I wanna know how it was in the original. WHat. you couldnt play with Peppita, Nel, Roger, or Abel afterwards? You were only left w/ Fayt, Sophia, Cliff and Maria? I know you didnt get all of them so...

?!?!?

I also heard that characters also didnt learn spells so were the tomes still there? Or was it only Sophia who knew symbology?

[supersonic1453]

You just get Albel, Nel, Peppita, and Roger, I believe.  No choice about it.

[chingi1]

No, I know thats wrong.
