I've seen some video where you walk a few steps and there you are again, fighting the same two fools you just fought 5 seconds ago in what seems to be the EXACT same environment. How uninspired!

De javu for the loose

How is this different to the majority of games though, most games require you to fight the same monsters in a given area/level multiple times, whether it be Mario or Halo 3.

Random encounters are supposed to be a surprise tactic as you never know what your going up against, it can be annoying if its ever 10 seconds but the encounter rate here isn't very high for a JRPG.

I'm not even going to answer that.

Well, they are definitely surprising......they are still stupid.

What can you expect? He just wants to stir things up a little.

Because you can't because I have a point :D.

I don't think he was trying to stir anyone up, its similar to how I wanted to play Mass Effect, I knew the game wasn't my thing but I was still interested in certain things.

I didn't like it though :P

Don't think so, the JP and Asian version needed a download for this with BD, so perhaps MW will do the same for this game, who knows.

Random encounters aren't an issue with this game. Enchanted Arms was far worse. Infact, there are more battles in Blue Dragon, a game without any random battles.

I went up against the first boss. Got my ass whooped the first time, tried again, and made that Griphon into fried chicken.

Story is really looking amazing right now. I got the concept of "1000 year old dude blah blah blah" but those little dream things really deliver it with a punch. Shame they aren't anymore interactive, or delivered with narration, because reading for as long as this game is meant to be played is going to become tedious. First time I actually felt some sort of an emotional response out of a JRPG. I guess I can see why some of you Nancies and Suzies were bawling :P.

Voice acting is the best I've seen in a JRPG, easily. That dude who plays Jensen, hil-fucking-arious! "Hey, I need a break. How about a foot massage. My feet don't stink! Kaim? You up for it?"

I'm no JRPG connoisseur, but I'm digging the game as a whole, gameplay and story. That's something which Blue Dragon really couldn't do for me.

an old friend of mine made a statement about Jansen being the most annoying character since Robin. Long story short, they won't be finding his body.

Anyone know what is the max character level in the game?

All my immortals now have 99 level and I gain more exp, but veeeeeeery sloooooooow. I have 9 non lerned skills (Sed). All other skills are finished.
My mortals have 69-78 level, and I have achievments like Master Skill Sed, Tolten, Mack, Cooke and Jensen.

I wonder may I continue to learn all remaining skills AFTER overpassing MAX level(100???)?
or may be MAX level block SP gain and I'll cant learn remaining skills((((
