If you're talking about video, I don't think there's a single one in the game. All the cutscenes use sprites. |

I was wondering if there are any animated cut scenes in this game, because I like my RPGs with alot of animated cut scenes and fun and addictive gameplay. |

...In other words, Bad Ending? 
At least you didn't have any problems with the Level 2000 baddies... Although that smelt rather fishy when you told me about it. Probably explains the 8. |

Scratch the 30 and put 8 in there...figured out a few things that I didn't know.
And as such...Fin.
Beat the game at 45 hours, Lv. 61 Prier. Course, this is saying that I completed the chapter...it does not say that I completely obliterated it...at least yet. |

Well...I've got to very close to the end of it.
Let's put it this way...the boss I'm on now...sucks...sucks big time...sucks so much that I'm going to have to put a good 30 hours of leveling up on the side just so I can beat his sorry ass it's that bad.
But do you know what's even worse? There's a part in the game where you're going against level 2000 monsters.
I'm not shitting you. |

just letting ya'all know I've found some sprite sheets from a thread at gamefaqs, so anyone up to making animated sprites out of em is free to do so <<; |

Done...and done.
So that makes five now.
Safe to say...over-obsessing. |

oooooh, it looks even cuter than SO2's sprites. but it doesn't seem to have a European release date.
nnnnggg, judging from the trailer at rpgamer, it looks like FFT, but with more liberty of movement. I wants 
Count me in in the layout changing ^_~ |

I got a Hippo myself...and it packs a wallop when allied with the Big Bear I have. Between the Hippo having the Yawn command that can put an enemy to sleep and the Big Bear having a 4-hit combo that can easily accumulate a LOT of damage against an opponent that doesn't have DEF...it's a deadly combo (both can't be countered, at least that I know of yet).
I might think of getting a Fairy Fire and Gremlin (the box one) in my party though. The Fairy Fire has EXTREMELY long range for magic attacks (and if I so choose, Purify) and the Gremlin...well...it doesn't have very good move ability and it's HP is low, but it DEF/RES are well in the high hundreds range at an early level. So if I slap on a Raise HP/Raise SPD and go for broke trying to max his stats on that option...he'll be a walking tank that progressively gets faster/more move ability.
EDIT: Through Ch. #4 now. Got the good ending. And since I had a bad ending in #3...I did a little side searching and came up with a 'special' ally...and lemme tell you...he's...cute. 
The Gremlin and Fairy Fire I got. But hell...end of Ch. #4 I was half-tempted to get one of the monsters you're supposed to evade and I ended up killing anyways...but I figured it would take as long to get if not longer than the Gremlin (which took about 15 Purify attempts at about 30 Purification Power a pop) so I would've been killed by it before I got it.
OMG bump looky here!
And four layouts done for this series. I'm up to Chapter 10 of 12, btw. My brain is fried by how hard it has become (has died twice horribly, Ch. 7 and this one).  |

Colin - That's funny...I haven't finished Metroid Prime or Wind Waker either, and I put a significant amount of time into both. I guess I really don't care as much about beating games as I used to. 
On the subject of the game - In chapter 1, I had found the room that Ranko mentioned, but there was a search square I'd missed when playing through it the first time. D'oh. I'm in the forest now, and I'm being very careful to hit all the search squares in each area before I beat it. So far, I think I'm doing OK, and I think the difficulty curve problem was temporary. I recruited a hippo and have been focusing on buying better items and making long streams of energy to purify (to power up said items), and I haven't had to do any real leveling since getting ready for that boss battle in chapter 2. I think my problem was that I just didn't have enough strong characters, but now I do, so life is good.  I've also discovered that setting up miracles really isn't as tough or random as some people claim it is. If you just try to move your characters around and lengthen the energy stream, you may very well wind up being able to connect a long stream with an enemy inside, and there ya go. It's not going to happen in every single battle, but it's definitely something to try for. |

Hm, maybe I should make a thread about Dragon Warrior 3. Or Illusion of Gaia. Or maybe, just maybe, a thread on Threads of Fate.
...OK, that's going a bit too far. But any game's eligible for discussion, Hero. Old or new. Remember that. |

Rydain = Colin. 
Just because I have a game doesn't mean that I try to finish it right away. That's a BAD thing sometimes though, because I've had MORE than enough free time to finish Metroid Prime and Zelda: Wind Waker by now.  |

Not everybody gets games as soon as they come out or winds up playing them right away. Though I enjoy console gaming very much, it's not my #1 free-time priority, so it's pretty common for me to not get around to a new game for a while, especially when we get more than one at a time. We got Ratchet and Clank ages ago, and I literally haven't touched it yet. |

Of course he does. You wouldn't expect Melvin to discriminate, would you? 
I like that picture, though - she has curvy hips and muscular legs, which is a very nice change from the thin look that we typically see for female characters in video game art. I also think it's interesting that her hips are actually wider than her boobies. That's the way I'm built, so I'm happy to see us pears getting some flattering representation. |

Melvin... Based on that picture, she looks like someone of the faith.
Do you really want to defrock her? |

Ah yes...Prier. But I like the one with her on the cover slightly better. |
