You said I wasn't a "True FF" fan because I used a guide. In my experience, I have found online guides to be quite undescriptive, being they are written by amateurs. Also, the guides may not be as in-depth or about total completion, as this is still a new game.Quote:

Why would you need a guide anytime soon? Getting stuck and figuring out what to do on your own is half the point of an RPG game, giving up the second you get stuck and resulting to a guide is simply not a true RPG gamer, they're just people who like the series and want to get through it ASAP, but don't appreciate the game for itself and enjoy it, like chewing your steak, whereas some swallow it after 2 bites.
Heh, I'd never download a Squeenix game! No need to worry, I am waiting just like everyone else. It hurts, but yes, I'm doing it. :(Quote:

I don't think I'd be smart enough to download it even if I could. xD
That being said...I never usually get so excited about upcoming releases...but now that it's only a week or so, I'm getting all butterfly-ish! ;_; :cat:
I agree with you. For the very least, you try it on your own. People who use guides knows where's the boss, the sidequest, the way in and how the story end. But non-guide-user :jess: are all blotto about that. That gives them the stunning of the game and they're eager to see more. Plus, non-guide-user sometimes are blotto in their way, so they enter a wrong place and result in fighting the enemies there, they also get to see (and explore) more optional places earlier which then leads to a sidequest. Then, they level-up fast and have no problem in the game. At least, that's better than having to fight the same enemy on the same place for just levelling. That's just boring. IMO, btw. :choc2:Quote:

Me and Blaine: "Screw Halloween! FFXII!"
So close...
Hold up now wait a minute!, i meant was that he's not a true FF fan because he plans to buy the collector's edition guide and just sell it without reading it or looking at the artwork, if he was he would keep it for collection. I didn't mean he had to use it because when I had my FF guide I just used it for the sidequests and just 1 boss which was Seymour Flux.Quote:

Wow, just 5 days away. Its worth the wait guys, I wasnt expecting the game to be this good, but it is.
Best RPG on the PS2.
Man, it comes out three days before my b-day! PERFECT! However, the gift-giver must get it on its release date, otherwise its a semi-waste.
What actual day does the collectors edition come out? heh... I need to find my recipt...
The same day as the regular version, October 31st, or in other words tuesday.Quote:
