[quote name='FloodsAreUponUS']Tales of the Abyss was the most mediocre tales game ever.
Legindia was better.

.hack GU is awful, and so is the first part, its just made up advertising for their stupid show.

DDS seems so slow and boring, this shit better pick up fast or Im not even gonna play nocturne at all.[/QUOTE]
If you think DDS is slow and boring, don't bother with Nocturne.
 
I think P4 has one of the best non-boss battle themes I've ever heard. Of course, most of the themes I hear are from FF games, so go figure.
 
Nocturne is a dungeon crawler in the purest sense. The game is 90% fighting & 10% story. Oddly it works and I love the game for it. Like Rei said if you think DDS is slow and boring I wouldn't bother with Nocturne.

I can't really think of many better JRPGs than TotA and Nocturne... if you don't like them I think you might want to try another genre.

I love many JRPGS and they are probably my second favorite genre. I just hated alot about TotA.

I enjoyed so many JRPGS, im just saying I hate a couple because of the characters.

I kinda like it but I hate myself for liking it


Mostly because I watch a bit of J-drama and they do have a tendency to overuse songs with lyrics during pivotal moments, but like a sucker I fall for it every time.
 
TotA was a great game........untill the load times make it unplayable. I played the game for quite awhile and then had to quit because the load times were just killing it.

As for Nocturne.....fuck it! Nocturne sucked it was like freaking MMORPG offline without the exploring. You grind and grind and grind and freaking grind and the difficulty was throw the rough. The story was a joke and pacing God awful. Setting means nothing if a good story isnt in place to take advantage of it or gameplay to make it enjoyable.

He changes but still remains to be annoying, and awful.

You are funny.
 
There's one thing that bothers me about P3 and P4...

Although I like how social links exist, I don't like how the answer to the questions can determine how much you level up the social link.

"Do you like tacos?"
-"I love tacos!"
-"I think they're pretty good!"
-"I like the spiciness!"

And it doesn't feel like I'm really engaged or solving something. It just feels random.

Ya I can agree with that. I wouldn't mind if they go up or down based on how you answer questions....but some of the stuff really is too obscure and while most are probably easy to predict there are some that are just far too odd or difficult.

how the hell is that random??

anybody who doesnt love tacos also does not deserve to earn any social link points.

pretty good and spiciness SMH...
 
*has a refined palette and doesnt care for Tacos or Mexican food in general* Doesn't help that they smother everything in fucking beans. Sushi, Korean and Pizza is where its at!

On topic - Anyone else notice the overwhelming preference for JRPGs here? Doesn't seem there is a lot of talk about games like Mass Effect and Fall Out.
 
The bigger games tend to already have their own threads. Smaller games benefit most from megathreads. There really havent been any huge JRPGs this generation yet. I expect there will be a Final Fantasy 13 thread when that ship sails.
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']A jekkisona wouldn't be any help. He'd sit there, talkin'' about whateer, then jekkisona would sommon Galvatronsona.[/QUOTE]

More like sit there eating Tacos getting fat ;)
 
Mass Effect is in my backlog, I'ma play it before I play Fallout... which is all after I finish Valkyria... which is after I finish P4.

and speaking of fat, I needa go to the gym today, but my appetite's all funked up rite now and I doubt I'll feel up to it after work... which is fine coz I wanna play Persona anyways.

like I was playing last nite and it was midnite and I was like aww fock I gotta go to sleep but I dont wanna go to sleep coz I wanna keep playing Persona! but I went to sleep anyways...

I miss school... if I had class in the morning I woulda played Persona all nite, then skipped class to play more Persona. Work sucks, I dont even get any social links working here :cry:

and there's also this place that combines tacos and korean food. I wanna go there but it's legendary and mysterious, I needa write a blog on it soon.
 
finding the mysterious korean taco truck tho is an RPG in itself.

real life RPG yo, I need more experience points, and I need key items and information
 
[quote name='Krymner']Yeah, but in real life RPG, barging into people's houses and looking thru their stuff is kinda frowned upon.[/quote]

not if you have high enough stealth.

Thats why you stick to Korean and Sushi! You can eat more then you can stuff like Tacos and get more energy from the better ingredients! You might laugh but what you can eat makes a big difference. I tried jogg today after having pizza for breakfast....even though it was 2 hours after the fact I still felt slow and sluggish and sick!

If you washed that pizza down with some Sam Adams then you would have been fine.

Also you should haven't eaten that much, DDS teaches you whats wrong with eating too much.

are u trying to talk smack on tacos?!?!?!

wtf dood, tacos make u fuckin strong like a bear yo... I'm not lying.

like I always keep fruits with me, usually eat them for breakfast. One day I had tacos for lunch and while it does indeed make u a little sluggish and tired for about 90 minutes, you get like this big ass wave of strength and energy after that. So I was like time for a afternoon snack, I reached out to grab an apple and as I got a firm grip on it I crushed it in my bear hands!!

I woulda been pissed coz it was my last apple but instead I decided that this newfound power of mine should not be used in a negative way. They say with great strength comes great responsibilities, and since that day I vowed to use my powers for the good of mankind.

and thus begins my tale...
 
That tale is something I'ma have to pass down to my grandkids.

But doesn't that kinda make you like Popeye? Like you have to find a taco to get your Super Jekki powers?
 
nah not jus tacos... jus quality food in general.

that's why on my quest I form a party and we become the Anti-FastFood Defense Force.

like over a month ago, I needed more food inside me to prep me for exercise after work, and they have these 99cent chicken sammiches at Carls Jr that I useta eat all the time back in high school.

I bought one, and felt like crap for the rest of the day!! I had no energy at all!!

so... to test if it wasnt a coincidence I decided to eat one on another day... and the same shyt happened!!! It's like I was in a science class proving my hypothesis with an experiment of sum sorts.

but the things that only make me weaker give me the experience to make me stronger!!

STRONGER!!!

this is a flashback btw... reminiscent.
 
That makes sense, I guess.

I used to get these slammin' double cheezburgers from this hawaiian bbq place, Rice Bowl. I got the burger cause I didn't like some of the stuff they had on the menu (aside from the chicken katsu). Burger was the best burger I ever ate. Then I got to know the cashier lady, but I never went for it, because I guess my S. Link wasn't high enough at the time.

But yeah, I guess what I'm saying is that Jekki is alwys right.
 
Every time I read that someone is playing P4 I feel a little bad about myself for not playing it for the last 2 weeks...
 
[quote name='JEKKI']you need to raise your diligence stat.

u can come with me to the gym tomorrow, we'll raise it together!![/quote]
Count me in, I need more Diligence. I'm like, level 1 still.
 
I got pretty far in Persona 3 but never beat it :whistle2:(

I will beat Persona 4 (I hope). 3 hrs into it and so far it's excellent. Love the battle music.
 
Taco = fresh masa corn tortilla, meat (i prefer al pastor / carne asada / carnitas, i stick with the basics), and pico de gallo. i don't know how that fills anyone up, that's some all natural stuff right there.

I really like the music in P4. Like, really. I especially like the title menu music.

Slutty Nurse S.Link ftw
 
[quote name='kainzero']Slutty Nurse S.Link ftw[/quote]
Thats my favorite Slink in the game so far. Still I don't think any Slink in P4 will be the Hermit from Persona 3...
 
whoo! taco tuesday!! 3 for $1!!

[quote name='Jest']JEKKI. Ur psp has style. Where'd you get that sweet shell?[/QUOTE]


sum random mod-chip site, I gotta pack of 5 and gave one to Yuki Ne so he did it to his also.

I wanted to dual tone my slim but I stripped the two screws on top :cry:

but I think if I superglue the screws to my screwdriver I may be able to get them out!! I'm seriously considering doing so.

that would also raise my diligence btw

oh yah I maxed the nurse yesterday also!
