Outside of playing <i>Costume Quest</i> for about an hour a few days ago, my <i>360</i> has been nothing more than a DVD player for the last four months. I would delete my profile except for all of the paid content attached to it. I've read information that makes me think that it might expire after 270 days of going unchecked, so I'm going to see what happens. I'll have to take it online again next Independence Day, and see what happens.<br /><br />Regarding <i>FFT</i>: I knew about hiring soldiers, and I knew about the Brave/Faith levels though I honestly hadn't paid it any attention before my last post, but the zodiac signs were something that I had totally forgotten if I EVER knew about it. I still think that it's just too complicated, and irrelevant to bother with though. I dug up my strategy guide for the game and started over. I've played over 50 hours since then. My biggest problem before was that I wasn't upgrading/managing my equipment and abilities after EVERY encounter the way that I should.<br />Another interesting note: Just this morning, the game sent me into a random encounter against <b>ELEVEN</b> monks. There were only four left when I finally succumbed, but I admit that I make a few poor choices.<br /><br />Regarding <i>Star Wars</i>: I expect that you already knew this, but I just heard this morning about the <i>Disney</i> acquisition, and the prospect of a new movie as soon as 2015. Normally, I'd be apprehensive, but I don't imagine that it could be any worse than <i>Phantom Menace</i> (IMO).Zenra Nukeninnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850769218281412203.post-48455081882116510232012-10-24T11:08:10.644-07:002012-10-24T11:08:10.644-07:00so nice and good job I like your workso nice and good job I like your workLatest Fashion And Stylehttp://stylopoint.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850769218281412203.post-88635047681154010082012-10-20T23:42:57.017-07:002012-10-20T23:42:57.017-07:00Zenra: I miss you. I sent you a friend's reque...Zenra: I miss you. I sent you a friend's request once I saw you were off on the off chance you'd accepted it . . . even if you're never on. Friends are still friends right? I eventually cancelled it because everytime I saw it unanswered it made me sad. <br /><br />When you get to a city/castle just go to warrior's guild and say you want to recruit a male or female character. When their stats come up if you don't like their Brave/Faith level or Zodia sign "don't hire" them. I won't accept anyone less than 65/65 unless I'm desparate for a specific Zodiac. You might have to go through a lot of choices before you find what you're looking for but it does make a difference on the battle field. I also won't let them earn any abilities until they've learned the JP Boost ability (third tab over on Squire class). Once they learn that and it's equiped they'll earn more JP for actions . . . which means they learn abilities faster. Give it a shot.<br /><br />Kralon: I've seen you in Gears many times. I've wanted to jump in but whenever I jump into a "friend's" game unannouced there's starts to be talk about 'starting a private invite only room' which when everyone backs out to do I'm never sent an invite. I've been playing Gears Arcade because I need to play the campaign on insane and I can't do it by myself and I can't get any friends to help me out. I just randonly jump into stranger's insane rooms and hope for the best. So far I've done Acts II and IV on insane.....eventually I'll play the whole game that way. It worked for RAAM's shadow DLC.<br /><br />Pengwennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979393865540991227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850769218281412203.post-89425117258906300132012-10-19T13:00:44.999-07:002012-10-19T13:00:44.999-07:00I am still hoping for another Star Wars Battlefron...I am still hoping for another Star Wars Battlefront to come out, or at least maybe an updated anniversary issue of Battlefront 1. I've seen you online playing Gears 3 arcade and was going to join you, but wasn't sure if you wanted the company. I am playing Gears 3 and Gears 2 trying to get them both leveled up in time for Gears 4, i hope. If you want company playing just about anything let me know.Kralonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04474405916906087306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850769218281412203.post-12868010068666648152012-10-16T12:45:13.997-07:002012-10-16T12:45:13.997-07:00This is too weird. I haven't checked your blog...This is too weird. I haven't checked your blog in a few weeks, and when I do, I find that you posted just yesterday.<br /><br />And then you mention being "just not in the place that you used to be"... Well, you might be aware of the place where I am now. I <b>might</b> have turned on my 360 twice since June (easy to remember since I allowed my account to expire July 4th), and I have zero interest in playing online with people anymore. You'll never see Zenra Nukenin in Xbox Live again, so I removed all of my friends. No point taking up space on their Friends Lists.<br /><br />So what have I been playing the last three months (though it feels like it's been MUCH longer)? Mostly Bethesda games on my PC, but I've also been playing a lot on my PS Vita. But more specifically, <i>Final Fantasy Tactics</i>. As soon as Sony made it avavilable for download (about two weeks ago), I picked it up and I've been grinding away at it from the begining. But you talk of a depth that I never considered. Team mates of different zodiacs, and Brave/Faith levels? Since my original playthrough was stunted by a full team of kick@$$ nobodies that didn't leave me with the room to recruit the special characters that I came across, I've just been using the handful of people that I started with this time. Maybe I would do well to just start over <b>again</b> since my toughest character is only level 5 anyway. I've honestly been losing more than half of my battles anyway, and it's frustrating because I don't remember having such a hard time originally (15 years ago!).<br /><br />I guess it doesn't really matter though. <i>Jet Set Radio</i> is <b>supposed</b> to release today (though I haven't seen it yet - and I keep checking), and then <i>Assassin's Creed III: Liberation</i> comes out Oct 30th, so I don't think I'll be playing <i>FFT</i> as much in the near future. Still, even though we're off of Xbox Live for different reasons, I thought it was odd how our lives have paralleled these last few months.Zenra Nukeninnoreply@blogger.com
