Re: 8 OP

Don't have the drawing anymore, I was fifteen and it sucked. XD I kind of want to draw more now, though.

Bahamut Lagoon is just as great as Live-A-Live, and made by Square around the same time. It's basically the plot prototype of FFX only infinitely more complicated. You should play it. :D

But really, it's so hard to get people to play Live-A-Live. None of the chapters are really easy to start with (except maybe the space chapter, but it's still radically different from most RPGs) and everyone either gets lost in the ninja chapter or gives up halfway through the modern day fighting. I really wish the game had more fans.

Bahamut Lagoon is just as great as Live-A-Live, and made by Square around the same time. It's basically the plot prototype of FFX only infinitely more complicated.

I thought it was more similar to FFXII, plotwise, restoration of a fallen kingdom, relatively realistic take on what war exactly means, etc... oh, wait, I forgot about the summoners in FFX... XD Whoops.

And was one of those who gave up during the ninja chapter (and played BL and Rudra instead, yay). I suck as a ninja. That was hard to stomach. :(

Re: 8 OP

[purple-solle.livejournal.com]

It's close to FFXII too, but I like to think the links with FFX are deliberate. The emphasis on Bahamut, the Fayth, Sauzer as Seymour, an airship named Fahrenheit... it could all be a big giant coincidence, though.

And you really should give Live-A-Live another chance. There's more than one way to get through the ninja chapter... and I would really recommend starting out with the Sci-Fi chapter (Robot) or the China chapter (Monk) instead. They're infinitely less frustrating than the giant fucking Ninja maze of death.

Re: 8 OP

Fahrenheit!
See, my problem might be that I've forgotten a lot of details about FFX. Lalala~ I've said nothing. :3

I will probably give it another chance, sooner or later. I'm currently playing three games already, and who knows when I'll get to finish one of them, but I'll definitely turn to Live A Live next... also because I'm running out of old school RPGs.
The monk did seem like fun. :D

Re: 8 OP

[purple-solle.livejournal.com]

... I just googled "Rudra". Why has no one told me this existed, and why do I have a feeling I'm going to lose my soul to this game.

Re: 8 OP

[weaselistic.livejournal.com]

Yeeeeeeeeees~! XD

And if you do lose your soul to the game, let's obsess about it together. I don't know anyone who has finished it...

Re: 8 OP

[purple-solle.livejournal.com]

Playing it now. I'm already completely in love with the magic system. I love combining things in games to create something new. (It's a thing I have - I spend literally at least 50% of the time in Vagrant Story forging, naming and honing weapons.) And the graphics are even better than Bahamut Lagoon, which I didn't think was possible.

It doesn't seem that hard so far, and Sion and Foxy are gaining levels like it's going out of style. I do hope it gets more challenging later on. ;)

Also, I still can't believe I'd never heard of this game. And the translation patch website has only just over 2000 downloads. How on earth did this game stay so obscure all these years?

Re: 8 OP

[weaselistic.livejournal.com]

I honestly don't know... Well, I remember thatthe translation came relatively late, and I did not like its quality very much... but this can't be the entire reason. Really, don't know. Maybe everyone is just stupid!

The music is also awesome, and I wish there were orchestrated versions of it, fan remixes or the like... ;_;
Don't neglect Surlent. He's my poor dumb darling.
