Japanese RPGs have nice music, don't they? Lots of them have really nice music, and many times the themes are meant specifically to enhance or describe the experience of playing the specific game they're in!
You want to play a game where your character is a genderfluid space hero who flies around in a giant robot in a universe where the Earth has been destroyed? Xenoblade Chronicles X has you covered for all your thematically appropriate musical needs!
Want to play the newest entry in Bamco's venerable action RPG series? Then Tales of Melancholia has you covered! It's got some music too, buddy.
I hear Persona 5 is coming out soon! I haven't got a theme song for that one. Maybe this?
Do you have any JRPG music you really enjoy, any themes you think super fit?
Let's talk about JRPGs.

It's basically a contemporary christian worship song.
I have a soft spot for Wir Fliegen because hearing German sung with J-rock tones tickles me pink

A big part of that is down to how Overdrive works, and in terms of getting perpetual Overdrive I think the Dual Guns/Dual Swords combo might be one of the easiest? Side Slash can be fired off three times in rapid succession, and builds up huge amounts of TP as the counter climbs. Zero Zero and Hundred Shells are both huge in terms of the number of hits they allow you and the weapons have access to buffs that raise your TP directly, so that going Ghostwalker -> Zero Zero -> Blood Sacrifice -> Hundred Shells (or reverse that, so you do Hundred Shells first) can put you at nearly 50 count, which makes you way more powerful and more capable of perpetuating the Overdrive state
Also I finally started crafting my teams' Arts loadouts to be more combat effective instead of just focusing on myself, and it's made a world of difference. Now I just need to set up my Soul Voices
Man
Man this game feels good
They're bad
That game has bad quests
how's the music
For the 20 minutes I played it was pretty neat (the loading times were killing me before I remembered I hadn't moved it to my SSD yet)
hearing lots of violins still I think, no complaints so far
FF 13-2 has Crazy Chocobo, so fantastic.
What are you talking about?
Now go find me 5 Silver Bear Claws in North America.
Are you going to expand on that premise or shall we flush that one down?
When I catch up to you, I'm gonna wanna discuss builds.
I just got my first perpetual Overdrive in a timed mission fight from chapter.. 8? Somewhere in there
It was baller
They're generally pretty good about that, but the game does expect you to walk around New LA and find those red question marks sometimes
Most mandatory side-quests pop up on the terminal as Social, I think
Well I mean you can, if you have the guide, or already have the items necessary. I only ever pick up gathering quests where I already have everything
What song is this????
But if I were to describe each part of it to someone, they would likely come to the conclusion that I hate it

They turned the chocobo theme into butt metal when you (rarely) ride a red chocobo.
It is the absolute best kind of stupid.
not bad though

But I'm really just waiting for Fates to drop in February.
Though it comes out the same day as SFV so I will have to figure out how to split my time.
That series needs to come back. It was too good for the obscurity that befell it.
so far I've been really enjoying the soundtrack but for the same reasons I enjoy like, the sonic adventure 2 soundtrack
I'm not even sure that they're really tough but they have an aura that lets them avoid damn near anything
Took me about forty seconds to kill the first, and the second took ten minutes partially because it could dodge so much and partially because it could self-heal with a very low cooldown
If we hadn't nailed it with a topple just as Elma gave a melee command I don't think we would have killed it; as it was, I was barely able to keep my Overdrive up the whole time and a maximized Hundred Shells/Back Slash was barely able to take it down before it got back up
It only had like 200k health but that shit was baller-ass hard
Anybody got tips on how to get past those guys easier? Gotta be some kinda trick I don't know
I didn't even know she had a damage aura until you guys told me, I just knew we were dying and I couldn't tell what it was
Edit: Also to save yourself grief later go ahead and plant a mining probe—high level if you can—on a spot that has White Cometite listed as an available mineral. There's at least one in Primordia that you should be able to plant
Start it up today and get into NLA

What in the world is with this field music?

i think i'm probably gonna shelve this one for now tbh, I'm just not enjoying slogging through it even when it does have a built in way to cheese past encounters
Like I'm waiting for someone to start rhyming and it never comes.
And that makes me sad.

Also every time that otherwise likeable song drowns out a cutscene (you know the one) I start imagining that someone's ringtone is turned up too loud.
Oh god really? I was gonna get this game next, but uh
Probably not.

Is there any way to adjust font size? Everything is so damn tiny even on my TV, and it's flat out unreadable on the gamepad.
