RPG Progress Report

On the final dungeon in Soul Hackers. If I could use one word to describe the last few bosses it would be 'cheap'. I take out all the regular enemies just fine, but the bosses sometimes put down protagonist in one or two hits.

Just started Final Fantasy 1 for PSP. My party is a fighter, thief, red mage, and white mage.

Gon' get you Garland. D:<

Ran through the first couple of dungeons. First one wasn't too bad, the second one was a bit annoying as I kept falling in water (which hurts you). I really hate the camera angles, this is a game that's just begging to be in 2D.

Gonna try to squeeze in an hour of play time every night until I'm finished.

I put Fire Emblem aside and am finally trying Torchlight. It's fun but easy (playing as a warrior on normal) so far. I'll likely dive into the sequel for my next RPG.

Should have played it on hard.

I am a bit surprised you like shining force and other tactical RPGs but not FE. While not my favorite, I have it right behind the ogre and shining games. I think there may be a big jump in difficulty from normal to hard as they tried to make the game easier and more accessible with this release.

I really wish the Langrisser games had been released in English - they're right up there with the best Ogre Battle, Fire Emblem, and Shining Force titles.

On the final Stage of Jeanne D'arc, Grinding to get to level 70 to beat gilvaroth and his reapers. Really proud of my self because this is the first rpg i have stuck with and plan on beating.(besides the pokemon series and FF7)

Well 1 is, and I have a Langrisser 2 repro on the Gen.

They are good but I think the belong on a tier right below.

I'm playing on Normal/Casual and find the difficulty really ramps up with the paralogues. I had one recently (I think it was Paralogue 11 or 12) and I couldn't beat it. I had to load an earlier save and level up my dudes.

I am on hard casual and found it more difficult early on. But once I leveled up my guys, my team is a powerhouse. I have all but 2 children now. Should get the last 2 soon.

Awesome! I am getting them now too, although I only have 3 right now (2 of which I actually had to fight for). I'm around Chapter 15 in the main story while I pause and get the children.

So ... can you give me some tips for the Paralogue I'm talking about? It's one, where you get a guy on a wyvern, and it just has a crap ton of enemies, archers and wyvern mounted ones and several bridges to different islands. My guys just get tore up on the main bridge.
