Josiah, I'll have you know that a lot of people enjoy PC RPGs quite a bit. Part of it is the exploring and the storyline aspects. In nearly all cases, they're more alike to traditional D&D.

I know that story, exploration, and character building are a big part of RPGs and NWN seems to do them just fine. I just wish it actually let you do something in battle aside from using a potion every half hour or maybe a rare special attack (magic users may give you more to do but I'm playing a monk so I wouldn't know). In traditional D&D you get to roll the dice and figure out damage and stuff yourself. On the computer it's all automatic you spend most of combat just watching. I'm not saying traditional PC RPGs are bad, I'm sure most have good storys, worlds, etc. I just think the combat system could use some improvement.

Ooooooooh, monk. That explains quite a lot, actually. The other classes are much more involved. If you watch the console window, you'll see the stats rolling off.

Finally beat Riku4 in CoM. Dang he was annoying. Now the Lighting Chick is being a pain. Will need to make a new deck for her. Axel will fall to my magic deck (can we say tons of Blizzard cards :) ). FF7 is getting intresting after I got unstuck. I'm now out of the world map. I just wish they had made the pic of the city abit more realistic. I mean come on, there's a section that should be missing...

Hey Neo, the last time you fight Riku in KH COM is the hardest battle in the game so you're doing pretty good. Speaking of multiple decks though, I got through the entire game just using one deck I occasionally modified.

I maninly use a magic deck to battle heartless and have a deck for bosses that I mod depending on the boss. The deck I have now worked for Riku but the Lighting Chick tends to be in the air too much and my Sonic Blad doesn't hit very often. Hum, maybe Ragnarock would stand a chance...

BTW, where the heck are Neo Shadows located? I've yet to see one.

Man, has anyone else been playing this new Zelda game? It's got to be one of the best ever...I :wub: it!

On another note...I found Soul Calibur for the dreamcast, used...been playing that. Great game!

Well remade my deck in CoM and kicked the Lighting Chicks butt with it. Got to love 4 zero cards and lots of 9 and afew 8 keyblade cards with some cure and enemy chards :) But now Castle Obolivian (sp) is fun to go into... And Neoshadows are a pain :)

In 7 I got 2 of my "All" Materia to level up and one Lighting into Lighting2. A fire and Blizard card on the way. Just training. I also got my first Summon :)

Hmm... I really should play FFVII again, it's been a long time. But I need to finish up some other games first. Maybe over the summer...

Post by **Neo Zanther** » Mon Jan 31, 2005 1:12 pm

Well, have 3 summons and on another part of the planet. Also got Yuffi. Dam she was a pain to find first and then answer the questions correclty. Had to do it 4 times...

Hum, turbo eithers are nice but a real pain to steal...

Well, sorry for the 2 post but to revive this I've been playing R/R in Chain of Memories. Very intresting :)

Nah it's not that big a deal. I've been re-playing Star Ocean 2 lately. :thumbs up:

Post by **Josiah** » Tue Mar 08, 2005 11:48 am

R/R is neat but not getting to make your own deck is rather annoying. I'm playing Xenosaga 2. The story is good and the new battle system is nice but the character development was over simplified and the new mechs move too slow.
