I like a lot of it, but ya everything about H'aanit's dialogue is just so fucking bad. I find a lot of the Chapter 1 stuff is kinda meh but once I've gotten to Chapter 2 on a lot of the characters the dialogue has improved a lot.

Is the free prologue its own separate thing, or is it part of the full release?

The 2nd demo is 3 hours of play of the full game with no restrictions other than the time before it locks you out. Save carriers over.

Overall the game is amazing. Disliked a chunk of the dialogue though. only major complaint is having the silent heroes. Major drawback from having 8 different stories.
Maybe next game they can have duo chapters after chapter 1 or something. Like Cyrus and Olberic would be chapter 2 and Cyrus and Therion would be chapter 3. Loved the extra dungeons legit being extra. you could easily skip them if you wanted. Combat was awesome. Extra shrine fights were legit. Side quests were unique for the most part. they never seemed repetitive. 9/10. Its awesome when you have to look hard to find flaws in a game. |

Ophilia's Ch4 boss is absolute fucking bullshit. Can't even leave town to get better gear, going to have to walk all the way back through this cave to change my party I guess. What a waste of an hour. Ugh.

Multi-turn AOE magic, LV50 backup summons including 2x elementals, break immunity, seals magic, full party unconscious, four turn speed / magic / atk / def buff as one move. He's WAY more powerful than the enemies in his dungeon. Struggled against him for 45 mins, got him in red and then he did his ult, got 2 free turns on me and all I could do was watch him and his backup fuck my team.

Absolutely true. Giving a boss time is deadly especially if you're even a few levels below the recommended level. I. FUCKING. LOVE IT.

Ya. The Warmaster was omg. I figured I was fine because Olberic would out heal his damage. Give that boss enough turns and it is good game.

Haha I will when (if?) I beat him, haven't had the time to go on since until right now. Think I'm going to need to go back to the tavern for Prim to stand any chance here.

Tracked down some of those high end weapons and bought them outright, because I am rich now. Prim is doing good damage again, Olberic has a cursed sword so hopefully he doesn't buff the boss. Taught Olberic and Alfyn the SP regen dancer passive to help with sustain. Equiped some resistance gear to the elements I'm going to have thrown at me. Yep, ready to get my ass kicked again.

Managed to turn the tables on him and pretty much squash him. Prim is so much better than Cyrus, her speed was crucial to getting turns in before he had a chance to put his guard up and throw all his shit at me. Dbl Blk via Ophilia + Alfyn's concoct gave me some fast breaks, and the extra summon I had covered my lack of bows. Such a satisfying victory.
I'm at the forest of no return boss right now, switched my shitty Cyrus back in to get a more fair comparison. |

Forest boss is harder, purely for the Spirited Away gimmick & switching weakness. It took three of my team and then triple teamed the last one, no way of surviving that. At least it was quick about it. . If I could get rid of the minions I think I could take him. Prim over Cyrus though of course.

Haha think I'm gonna swap out Olberic for H'aanit, Cyrus for Prim and then give it another shot. H'aanit's roster is probably empty right now though.

Ya..... just found a boss who wrecked the living shit out of my team. Somewhat my fault for not having Saving Grace on Haanit but I still got butt fucked. Was the first boss since chapter 3 that I got wrecked like this. Love this game. Sad I am almost done

100% there will be. This game is selling like hot cakes.
If we can end up getting 2 or 3 per year I will be set. Really need go check out this Brave Default or whatever game I keep hearing about with Octopath too. |

Thinking of going H'aanit w/ Merchant next time I try it, the wind coverage and extra AOE sword skill would really help.
