Same thing. shyt was fun and frustrating as hell. Trying to parry those orbs and the weird ass delay from them hammer niccas had me annoyed. Especially when they are accompanied by that healer. You got to swap fire and ice between them. Low key some strategic depth there.
I pretty much stuck near the expedition flag and would treat to respawn the mob that is 3 dancers at once. Tried the one off to the side with the healers. Never again (or t least until I return). Managed to get a nice picto off of them that was 11 levels higher than my highest at the time!

I went there early also, that shyt teaches you how to stick and move around some of these enemies.
Is this before or after the Stone walls cliff ? my level is mad low...i just got to stone cliffs and im at level 20... and my picto count is low...ive been missing on mad shyt... I gotta go back to the beginning and see what i missed... i know i didnt fukk with any optional bosses... and they probly got some pictos.... and other joints i missed out on

My only real legit criticism is the way the maps/dungeons are laid out its hard to know which one is the story path and which one isn't. The amount of times I move forward only to realize this looks like the way to the next story beat and than have to backtrack a bit is a annoying at times.

Having said that I don't really want some golden shyt that is tracing you too the right path either so I don't really know what is the solution to be honest.

A mini map… we figured this out two generations ago

no game is better for excluding them

Only 4 hours in but yeah this is dope. This is the first game in a while that has me waking up early just to play a bit before work. Persona has been dethroned, this is the pinnacle of turn based combat for me now

:wow: I wouldn't have minded those unnecessarily long ass dungeons in P5 if they had this gameplay.

Either dodge him perfectly about 50 times or parry him 6 times in a row :russ:

Bruh I was severely under-leveled, he ate the attacks I was able to pull off. I was about to quit thinking I ain't about to spend hours parrying to whittle down this monster's health then buddy just stopped and self-destructed :dead:

Yes he's a gimmick boss, he can't be damaged at any level

Spoiler about the end of this game ( I didn't like it)

I don't like any story where the world turns out to be a fake, or "It was a dream" none of the people in this story matter, because they're not real. (aside from the painters of course
This was my problem with it. I've experienced another notable game with a plot direction like that and maybe that put me off to it here. Star Ocean 3 is that other game. I kinda knew the truth of the world would be somewhat of a let down but this is one of those times I wish they just played it straight.
