Hey guys, I bought the game early in the morning and I didn't arrive really far (just left Kaipo) due to my recent obsession with The World Ends With You and this website...
So where you guys at? And did any of you try the online fights?
Don't have a wifi point where I'm staying :s

I just got Tellah. I'm not used to the original difficulty. :P I'm not used to watching some of my characters die immediately when entering a new dungeon or area.

Don't worry, once you get Tellah, the game becomes less punishing... until you get Edward anyway.

I haven't tried the online stuff yet.

I picked up the game early Tuesday morning. I've played off and on all day. I'm doing my usual power leveling before going to Mist Village so it is easier to protect Rydia after the attack.

Yeah the game is difficult as hell now. I beat the JP version way back and I'll but the US one once I get back to the states - as for one thing that  I found interesting in the game, Rydia still can use the Rod as an item when she's a child and do pretty good damage... well, for a seven year old girl.

Philosoma:
What is this online fighting that you are talking about - I must have missed that feature. Fill me in ^_^

There is some local WiFi battles for Rydia's Eidelon. You can train it and to level it up you use Rydia's Magical Minute. I wrote a little about it in my blog.

Im not very far yet. Havent had a lot of time to play. Just got Edward in the group.

Sadly, I didn't play at all today. I was at the beach from high noon until sundown.

Updates! Just put the DS down after saving at the save point in the Tower of Babil.

I got EXTREMELY lucky earlier today, though. Managed to get a Rainbow Pudding off of one of the purple flan-type enemies in the Tower of Zot. I damn near jumped off the couch and screamed, as I was dreading having to farm for it. Also somehow managed to save 100,000 gil and get the Member's Writ in Troia, which lead to the Gil Farmer augment - which is sweet.

Man... being a former FFXI player, every time I see the name of that augment I giggle.

I've been playing for like.... 5 hours now, and I just got Rosa.

My friend got this game for his birthday, I'll probably try some of the battling Whyt stuff with him sometime...
