Lost Odyssey

[nozkits]

The first one was a pain in the arse because I wasn't prepared for the jump in difficulty so it kicked my ass, but since then boss fights have been relatively simple. Some battles are still retarded, though. I dunno how far you've gotten but wait until you get to the fight with the dudes who use this attack called "Rush", it's ridiculously cheap.

I'm fighting this giant bird, and it has kicked me ass up and down about 20 times now. yes that is correct.

I am not gonna pull a Two World's and stop playing it. I can't play it now mainly because I will be at a conference.

The Gamestop I pre-ordered it at still hasn't received the shipment. This sucks hardcore. ; ;

I preordered from circuit city and they didn't even have it after the day of release. So I got my money back and let capitalism do its magic and bought it at the Targets right next door to the Circuit City.

but the game is fun and it has a section of the game were you collect dreams, and they're basically the main character's memories. They're good, but its like reading a series of short stories. I liked it, but other people think it's boring. I think this game targets people who want story dept in it. They don't necessarily care about how bad the gameplay is as long as the storyline is great, and this is that type of game. You play because you want to progress in the story. It isn't like Halo 3 were its a huge grind until you get to the next cinema scene.
Lost Odyssey is one of those games were you play so that you can learn more about the world and the story within the world. These types of games are rare even for JRPGs.

I think you just have a broken copy of the game tbh! Either that or you've been ridiculously lucky so far. Walking into the first boss battle in the game to have him do 250+ damage to all of your party members on the first hit and then constantly spam an always poisoning poison claw for 150+ damage or the 250 to all on to your 500/470/280 HP characters is not exactly my idea of simple when you're not expecting it. So I can only imagine you got lucky with where the attacks went. He basically decimated my GC and then killed Jansen, so there went the healing spell. And The healing medicine was just brilliant, what with it's 100 HP healing power against something that never dropped under 150 on any of its attacks.

All of my characters are self sufficient. I made them all learn both black and white magic spells, and I carry itemsthat heal you, and I found a lot of antidotes.

But yea that's the bird boss for ya.
