Now they just cast whatever they can and hope that you personally will throw insanely expensive coffee cups at them. Your AI partners are dumber, and the ability to control their magic and item use was removed. The battle system recycled from Rogue Galaxy got more annoying menus and timers, and worse controls. Level 5 threw some old stuff together and called it a day. Months have passed, finally got to it, and the more I play, the more depressing it gets. Gold glims are extremely rare but allow for powerful spells that can deal increased damage at no cost.Īs I said, I'm still only beginning the game, and with the amount of sidequests even at the beginning can drag you away from the main storyline, but I've heard over 30 hours is the average gameplay time so take your time and explore.Ĭor blimey. There are also the green and blue glims, which can restore your HP and MP respectively, though in the beginning they are rare. The worst, though understandable, part of this is that the MC is the only one that can use healing/restorative items.ĭefending is VERY important in this game, some attacks can deal ~20 damage unguarded but be knocked down to 5 by blocking. Familiars do have a couple drawbacks they share the HP/MP bar with the MC so if your familiar gets hurt you're hurt and too much skill use can leave you drained. However, each one has a stamina bar that decreases the longer they're out in battle and if it runs out you need to wait for it to recharge. Of course, the main character isn't the only one you can fight with through the course of the game you gain familiars each with their own strengths, weaknesses and skills.
As for spells, and skills, there is some charge time to them that can leave you open to attacks, but with enough distance that shouldn't be a problem. This can allow you to dodge attacks, though skills can still hit you, once you choose to attack you can select one of the enemies and during the time allowed for the attack you will run towards them, yes this takes time from the attack period. In battle you can freely move when not attacking/using spells or skills. The combat system can take some getting used to considering you move with the left stick and have to use the d-pad to change between battle options. I've only played a few hours of it so I definitely don't have all of the gameplay info yet, but here's my take on it.
