clonechildI found my Vesperia disk \o/ Now I can finally finish that game!
...is what I would say, except I started on several of my untouched PS2 games. I played a bit of FFX-2 about a year ago, and while I like the dressphere stuff, I suck balls at the missions. Tried FFX three days ago (wrong order and terribly late to the party, I know) and - it's alright? I rather like Tidus which I guess I should have expected; he's far less whiny than fandom's made him out to be. I got up to Yuna doing the sending in Kilika, and that was one gorgeous scene and then I quit in favour of Atelier Iris 2 which is a lot of fun even when I'm not that far in.
Gotten a little bit farther in my second playthrough of FFXIII and you know that Juggernaut in a dead end at the beginning of Ma'habara? I killed it, first visit there. A zero-star rating of course, and Hope and Lightning both died once while Fang got close. On the other hand, Hope and Lightning both only died once (lowest combined HP in the game). Spent the first minute or so in Combat Clinic and trying to revive Hope, only for Lightning to end up KO (she only had Cure and Raise, Hope didn't have Raise and Curasa yet) then to Evened Odds. Hope's Barfire helped a lot. And the Juggernaut started using Steam Clean to get rid of its status ailments instead of attacking so I spent a lot of time in Smart Bomb untit it staggered after which I switched over to Relentless Assault. Lather, rinse, repeat until it was dead with switches to healing paradigms when necessary.
