Purges? I thought the one at the beginning was the only one that was carried out. IIRC, the purging only started after the Fal'cie Anima (or Pulse but does it matter?) became active.

I assumed it happened whenever L'Cie cropped up but it has been an extremely long time since I've played FFXIII.

Correct. The Purge was only done in Bodhum, because they realized that Pulse Fal'Cie Anima was active - up until then, it hadn't been. (And Sera was stupid and was like, "Duurrrr, I'll go into this strange thing that opened after never being open before". And she was admitted to Cocoon's best university.)
I believe NORA itself was more focused on righting minor wrongs... or just flipping authority off, because they are all assholes.

Hoping this changes, but right now, I'm not a huge fan of the eidolon battles in FF13. While I get the reasoning behind it, I feel it's all essentially trial and error. Having to keep trying until you find the right combination, which is essentially a win button. Maybe I'm just bad at them right now, but to me, it feels like there's really only one guaranteed way to win in each of the fights and having to find what is essentially the win button kinda bugs me.
Also, still don't care for Lightning, but thank god she finally has some sense of direction now as to what her objective is. I just hate that it took pretty much over 4 chapters to do so.
However, I really love how in the end of chapter 4/ beginning of chapter 5, Sazh and Vanille essentially discussed one problem I'm really having with the game right now.
Not verbatim, but it was something like this.
Sazh: So what do we do now?
Vanille: We run away.
5 Chapters in now, so about 6 to 7 hours for me, and we're still running. Not even a destination. Not even an idea of where to go. No motivation. No objective. Just running. At this point, it really feels like running is just used as an excuse to explore new areas. Storywise though, it really feels they could just sit there for hours and accomplish the same exact thing they're doing when running.

I might have mentioned at one point earlier that a complaint about the game I had was that the battles felt pre-determined by paradigms rather than my actions in the battle. To elaborate the Eidolon battles contribute EXACTLY to that feeling. If I don't have the right set up beforehand I am screwed in an Eidolon battle and there's little to nothing I can do about it. I mean...points to the reset feature where the battle can commence immediately and allows you to set paradigms and stuff then but it was a problem for me.
Also just dropping my stock counterargument to "well you have to always be on the run from Psicom": FF6 and the Empire Hunting the Returners
I'll at least assume that if I'm having to only do 5 or so Eidolon battles, at least it won't take up a majority of my battles. So honestly at this point, I'm seeing the eidolon battles as more of a minor nitpick for me at the moment.
Yeah, they were running in a sense from the empire in FF6, but they way it was handled was so much better than this game. Immediately Locke was all determined to go up against them, got with Edgar and the Returners to immediately start making plans on what they were going to do to up against them. Yeah, they were running, but they were willing to take immediate action against the force that was holding them down. FF13, they just run because... they can? I mean, I look at it from just a character standpoint alone and I feel Lightning is essentially more capable of taking down the bad guys than Terra, and yet Lightning is the one who runs away while Terra doesn't.
Quote:
Well, what else are they supposed to do? Be like Snow and cling to some stupid idea that they base on nothing but idealized 'heroism'? Suddenly disappear off-screen for majority of the game? They HAVE nothing else to do, except run. They have no clue what their Focus is, they can't go home since PSICOM and the rest of Cocoon is either frightened to death of or will kill them, and even if they don't do anything, their brands will advance. No matter what they do, they are up shit's creek.
I'm finding that that's a problem with the game's story for me. I'm okay with giving them a sense of hopelessness and feeling like they have no chance against the enemy. It sets up for a good "overcoming evil" story. But I feel at this point where I am, the game is just trying to fumble around for a while in terms of story and it feels like it really has no place to go right now. I feel like the fact that they're told nothing about their Focus, to me, contributes to a lack of direction in terms of story. I get that it's supposed to be mysterious, but I feel that because of the way it's done, it hurts the story.
I do apologize if my posts about FF13 have come across as negative. I'm still finding some good points in the game too. Enough to keep me motivated to keep playing. Heck, if I hated the game so much, I'd have already put it down. Originally for a while, I was actually holding this game around the same level of overall quality as Final Fantasy X for me (which I'd rank somewhere in the middle of the series for me), but as the problems with mostly the story and characters have persisted for me, as of now, I'd put 13 just a rank lower than 10.
I suppose if I'm going to be making a lot of comparisons at this point, I might as well put up a list of how I rank the series as a whole so it's easier to post my comparisons in the future.
4>9>6>5=7>10>3=1>12>2>8
So essentially, I'd be putting 13 in between 10 and 3/1 right now on my list.

In Fatal Frame II and Fatal Frame IV, they add the fact that you cannot simply pick up an item. You must press A to begin reaching out for it and continue to hold A, until you have grabbed the item. In and of itself, not much of an issue, correct? However, they also add this for investigating things like gaps in windows, underneath things, inside cabinets and for lifting covers for mirrors. (There probably is some superstitious reason for putting a cover over a mirror, otherwise makes no sense to me)
And it's always done with a loooooooooooooooooooooooong, slooooooooow zoom into the area you are investigating/item you are approaching with your hand. I can understand why they added it. It can lead to some suspense, as well as paranoia that some ghost is gonna jump out at you. Unfortunately, this is of the overkill variety - it loses its scare potential really fast and just makes it annoying that you have to take a good 5-7 seconds to pick up those sheets of Type-14 Film, instead of simply going "A - Investigate. You have obtained (Item)!"
The fact that they add 'ghost hands' that grab your wrist at random into the parts of grabbing items just is the jizz-juice on top of the shit cake.
I honestly do not remember if Fatal Frame V had this as well, but I kind of hope it doesn't. Given that it's on the WiiU, though, I fear that it will have it somewhere down the road... I only played a minor part of the demo, after all.

Speaking of Final Fantasy....
Last night I cleared the latest EXTREME raid content in FFXIV! Along with a bunch of my friends together we felled the great Fiend Sephirot, one of the Warring Triad.
And by god am I happy that's done with, weeks spent working with so many different people to clear it. One step out of line and everybody dies, its a very intricate and deadly dance you play with him.
Wish I'd recorded it now but I had a great time and considering its the second hardest Primal out there I'm feeling pretty good.

Nah, Yokai watch just really likes making crossovers, there's also a Detective Conan one, a just dance one and there's a spin off game where Jybanyan and Komasan dress as Ghost busters.

The underlying answer: Level-5 president Hino is a very good marketeer. He often makes iffy choices for the consumers (a lot of Level-5 games have updated versions releases soon after the original release, angering consumers who bought the original games), but he's really good at cross-marketing his products and tying it up with all kinds of promotions and stuff.

As for how I'm feeling about the game, honestly, I still feel about the same overall as far as characters and the story is concerned. Still enjoying the gameplay and the soundtrack has been fairly enjoyable. The boss fights are starting to get a bit more fun imo. Huge fan of buffing and debuffing.
Honestly to me, Lightning and Hope pretty much feel like the same character except one hates everything while the other hates one person. At times for me, Lightning has been feeling like a hypocrite who tries to come up with one-liners. I think the game is trying to use her and Hope's relationship as a way for Lightning to help Hope overcome his fears while he's used to help her find the bad that's within herself. But, I feel it's just being done poorly and they're still coming off as unlikeable.
I'm starting to warm up to Snow, but that's mostly in the flashbacks. Aside from a bit here and there, I'm overall enjoying the flashbacks. He's still the same reckless act first think later kind of guy that I didn't like in the beginning, but for some reason, I'm not as bothered by it in the flashbacks because I feel his actions are a bit more justified. And honestly, in the scenes with Lightning in these, he comes off as someone who has a better head on his shoulders.
The more Sazh talks though, the more I love the guy. He's honestly the best part about the game. The more Vanille talks, the less I like her. She's not a bad character per se, but it feels like she's too over the top cheerful to where I just can't stand it and what feels like a forced performance from her VA doesn't help.
Also, Operation Nora. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I honestly don't know if I should laugh because I find it hysterically funny or hysterically terrible. This game.

Yeah, there's a reason Vanilla is over the top cheerful. I think you'll see some of it crack at the end of Chapter 6.
Go ahead and laugh. I personally didn't mind Operation Nora - I mean, I did in the English version, but that's the previously mentioned issue with the voice actor for Hope. Didn't mind it in the Japanese version.

Yeah Snow seems an alright guy in the flashbacks and I do like him for his attitude. I didn't really feel Lightning changed after her actually lethally-enforced character development. She still seems to hate everyone and treat them as a liability.
Well, she doesn't. Also, I could say that her development goes on into LR.
As for me, I am still desperately trying to get 50€ together for Fatal Frame V.
In Fatal Frame II, I'm doing the Nightmare run and I was so pissed to learn that my Ghost List was at 98%. I thought I got them all, though I knew I missed some of the beginning ones. But I'm still missing some. I looked it up, I missed the female Denizen of the Dark (which is hard to tell there's a difference) and she's annoying, cause she's mostly random. The only time she is scripted to appear constantly, is in Chapter 7, at a point when you don't HAVE your camera. (But you can go back and fight her, when you get the camera back)
Also, I seemed to have missed a regular ghost... but I forget which one... have to check the list again. (Sure, you don't GET anything for 100%-ing the Ghost List, but I still wanna do it)

Yeah, whereas the other voices were a bit westernized compared to the Japanese version, Vanille's VA was specifically told to do a moe-moe anime voice. I'd link the interview but she mentions something that might be considered a mild spoiler.
So

Unfortunately, the stupid part of holding a button to pick an item up is back... I also find the camera obscura controls to still be iffy, but that is most likely an issue with lack of practice. I recall II's WiiMote camera being a bit weird to me at first, but I do much better now.
There's also a minor issue for me that the game autosaves at checkpoints instead of giving me even the option to save whenever I want. Will make completing the Ghost List probably kind of annoying and it does make me feel like I HAVE to play through an entire chapter, instead of being able to stop in the middle and do something else.

I do have a few questions concerning boss fights though, as these are something as I have yet to test myself as I never deemed it necessary but now this boss fight has me thinking.
Are items used for buffing like Fortisols cancelled out for boss fights if they are interrupted by a cutscene prior to the boss fight or do they not work at all?
Pretty sure the answer would be no, but can Deceptisols be of any use for boss fights, required or optional?
Granted, I've only used like maybe 3 Deceptisols and 1 Fortisol so far in my playthrough as I've usually been able to handle fights just fine so far, but it's something I'm wanting to think about in the scenario that a huge difficulty spike occurs that I may not be able to handle on a first playthrough.

They are not. If you use a Fortisol or Aegisol prior to a fight, even if it has a cutscene before it, the buff will not disappear. However, pretty sure Deceptisols are pointless to use around boss battles, since they make you invisible to enemies for a short period of time. And a boss will find you, regardless.
Just know that some regular enemies do not get fooled by Deceptisols. I cannot recall 100%, but I think Shaolong Guis will not let you surprise attack them. There are also regular enemies that cannot be surprise attacked to begin with. Like an Ochu and its underlings in a later location - in the localized version, you need to use a Deceptisol if you want to surprise attack them, otherwise it won't work. The Ochu notices you from every angle. (Not in the Japanese version, though)

Oh the issue was that despite the game being mostly pretty open-ended about how you solve problems there were still mandatory boss fights which screwed you if you weren't a combat character? How did they fix that?

I remembered wrong. It's +Speed but -SpAtk.
So Espeon is immediately out of it, because I recall Psychic being mostly Special attacks. Ditto Fairy, though I don't feel like having a Sylveon. I love it, but I want something I usually don't get. (ie. Something I get easily, like Flareon or Jolteon, since you easily gain access to Fire and Thunder Stones before/at the 2nd Gym)

Oh the issue was that despite the game being mostly pretty open-ended about how you solve problems there were still mandatory boss fights which screwed you if you weren't a combat character? How did they fix that?
They gave us non-lethal ways to beat bosses which mainly just involved hacking or another form of getting to that area that would neutralize the boss. You still can't sneak past the bosses or talk your way out of them, but it's better than straight up shooting them if you weren't specced for that.

...which I completely missed and instead went with the tried and tested method of shotgun to the face. I should probably try that later.

However, at the same time, I'm also pretty peeved. I had ordered Dragon Quest Heroes for $20 from Square's site back on May 4th. It has yet to come in and I have e-mailed Square since as it was supposed to be in almost 2 weeks ago now and have still yet to here from them.
On April 3, 2016, Court Records Forums experienced a miracle upon that day.
I feel the same

Finally got myself a PS4. I got the Nathan Drake collection with a free Uncharted 4 thrown in from the Newegg deal they had last week. So, I'm pretty excited.

Sweet! The Uncharted Games are really good, each one is like a super fun Indiana Jones movie.

Been playing Harvest Moon, spent the first 10 days getting my money up to actually start the farm, planting seeds and waiting for them to grow, i have a rhythm to this now and now i think i feel comfortable enough to start branching into other parts of the game so i started collecting wood to build a chicken coop.
Which one? Story of Seasons?

Uncharted 4 is the only reason I would want a PS4... which is why I don't have a PS4.

It's cinematic enough that a lets play will cover it.
