You're about half way through Chapter 10, ultra_extreme said it opens up in 11. I hope so, it's a good game but I want to explore damn it!

Ah phew, I'm really struggling to keep playing this now. I'm so mind numbingly bored of all this repetition.

On the flipside, I think I saw HMV were doing £30 trade in for the game before the 22nd. 10 more days to beat it. I really can't see myself playing this again unlike the other games.

The guide said after chapter 9 that it's now halfway through the story, but nowhere near halfway through the game, so I'd hazard a guess that you've got a fair bit still to do, as have I. I'm in the same place.

I'm on Chapter 12, and still yet to upgrade a single item. Loving this game though; it gets exponentially better once you hit Chapter 11 in my opinion!
 
Just picked this up from Tesco.

Then went and got a steak and ale pie for shortly, and a chicken tikka masala for later.

Along with copious cups of tea to get some gaming done :D

Hmm...

Well that didn't work. If anything my death came about in a much more swift fashion. :(
 
Im not convinced about the game so far, I will probably play it through but I cant really get into it.

The characters are poor and uninteresting, at least by chapter 4 they are, I HATE the two kids! Ok I know its a fantasy game and the whole damn thing is unrealistic but the idea of kids in the battles is just stupid, that and the annoying voices! GRRRRrrrr....

The combat system is decent enough though still not a patch on my favourite combat system in FF7. I hate the fact that no one in your party seems to anything useful and I have to do most things such as pots and PD's myself :rolleyes:

Most annoying thing is the camera angles, if you make a graphically amazing world why then go and hide half of the stuff through clunky, horrible to control camera views? Really, really annoying me.

Hate the crystal whateveryacallittosh system for advancement. Why? It just seems overly decorative just to compensate for the fact that it is exactly the same as any other advancement system (was it XI with Tidus? Its exactly the same system as that)

I will play through the game but I am really hoping that it improves because at the minute im struggling to keep myself interested.
 
I actually like hope now, I'm at Chapter 5 and although i found him annoying earlier. I find he's getting to be a nice addition to the game.

Spoiler

I especially like the way Lightning is training him, and the way he's growing as a character and maturing very quickly, I think he's better for this time alone with Light

If it's the one I think it is then here's a tip.

DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT HELP WITH A BOSS.


Use Lightning/Fang/Hope and toss a librascope, it gets all info on all monsters.

1. Nuke down the 4 caster things with a mixture of Commander/Sentinel/Healer and Ravager/Sentinel/Ravager, start with the first to get the increase break time then swap and rip on them with whatever spell they are weak against, whenever you get low, switch to the first and heal up, using the commander to keep the break gauge up.

2. When they are dead, break the boss and summon something, don't expect to break him again, you won't, or at least I never managed it, his special charge ability wipes Break.

3. When boss uses his charged up ability, switch to Commander/Commander/Ravager and just rip on him until he groans, that means his ability will do less damage.

4. For the most part use Commander/Commander/Healer and Commander/Sentinel/Healer if you get into trouble, your commanders will do much more physical damage to the main guy than your ravagers will do magical.

Make sure you have aegisol up at the start at least, if not make sure you have a synergist put shell on everyone for the first part.

The fight took me 16 minutes in total.

Been trying this for about 2 hours, takes me 30 mins to get him down to 60K HP then I die via Doom.... think this is going to be another FF I don't finish.
