I have not exactly been responding to my input as well as I normally do. As is par for the course, real-life trumps all. Anyway, this game gets hard and complicated in ways I was not prepared for. Gino's off for a bit so I'll try to solicit help from some of my more dedicated commenters because I'm honestly running around in circles.
What the Hell does Luck do? I have Luck Spheres, but have no idea who benefits from using these, or how they impact the game.
What am I supposed to do with the Teleport Spheres? No really, what are these things?
How do I get more Level 3 and 4 Spheres? Are these just given to the player as they progress the story, or is there an enemy I can grind to get more?
Is there a strategy to using the yellow spheres? What magic or abilities are worth sharing between characters?
Gino said to "get Copycat and Bribe immediately!" What is he talking about?
Can you think of any GOTTA GET abilities on the Sphere Grid for the late game?
Can I not give a shit about the item customization system? It seems like an aimless time sinks and there are more viable alternatives to having better equipment. It's not like there are spells and items which provide everything you could possibly want in the game.
Yo dawgs, "Mix" seems mad broken! Am I a bad person in using it to cheese bosses I am having a hard time with?
Speaking of which, do you know of any good combinations I should be aware of?
If Square Enix ever stops kicking their best studios to the curb long enough to put Final Fantasy Tactics out on Steam, you and ZombiePie should figure out how to do competing playthrough blogs on it. I'd be curious to see if you give up on the same fight.
(And I realize I'm one to talk after Jagged Alliance 2. The final straw was losing all my progress in one fell swoop because I had the temerity to rest when the game told me to.)
I'd absolutely do a competing FFT playthrough if that sucker ever showed up on PC and let me speed up animations. Although, at one point ZP was talking about doing competing Grandia II playthroughs and that didn't sound half-bad either.
Wait... weren't we at some point meant to do competing blogs for Grandia II? Am I crazy for thinking this?
@thatpinguino: @clagnaught: @bigsocrates: To my known donors I have edited my donation incentives. I will no longer be completing the Shumi Village Side Quest. In its place, I will be attempting the Doom Train and CC Group Side Quests.
I am beginning to realize that I am going to need these to beat the game, AND defeat Omega Weapon. Oh GOD... why did I put Omega Weapon as a donation incentive?
Trance is the most emotional genre. It can make you cry, make you shout, make you cheer, and make you celebrate absolutely nothing of substance except pure, ecstatic bliss...
Also never forget Bobby Corwen, our beautiful bird son:
Hey, we mentioned this on the podcast, but is "Bobby Corwen" some sort of reference? It is such a specific name for a chicken that we all thought it was a reference we did not know the origin to.
