Rogue Galaxy

Thanks for creating this thread ^^; I hadn't heard about this game but it's getting great reviews from what I've read.. did it just hit the shelves?
 
Last week on Tuesday/Wednesday so yea basically just hit the shelves.
 
Finally just got the factory(lol, yes I was in the daytron factory that long) and successfully made the magical smelter... damn this is great, took me a while to figure the right setup out, reminds me a lot of the georama system from DC titles.
Now to advance the story finally lol
 
Just finished the events in Myna, gotta go after the tablet on Rosa, and good god was that solo fight against Gale a bitch, his steady stream of shots move took Deego from full to dead...blocking reduces it to 1 hp a hit though, but still, gotta attack him and take it cautiously, only when he's reloading or taunting you.
That was my first sticking point, and my character levels were 40-43, Deego was 41. I got the game over screen a few times, still I said screw it, and just spammed Wonder Howl, holding the block button down all the time and using recharge drinks as necessary.
Sure it may be cheap, but so was Gale... also paralyze worked a few times from it so I got some swipes in.
Got the final form of the Desert Seeker before I got to him, Earthshaker, it's a nice weapon :O
So yea, I'm building up peoples weapons, since I can finally choose who I want in my party now, and Zegram, Lilika, Steve Simon and Jupis are way behind on weapon strength lol, when that's done I'll advance the story in Rosa.
 
I beat the Gale guy around 36. I lost to him twice, but the third time I just took it nice and slow. Probably the longest single fight I had in the game but I beat him. I havent built much weapons for characters other than Jaster, Zegrem, Deego, and Kisala <.>

In game progress I am one main dungeon and 1 seemingly optional area ahead of the Rosa part.
 
I just got out of Rosa and Crash-Landed on Jungle Planet (you know why).

So far, this game has proven to be very good!

Yea I coulda beaten him if I wanted to take it slow, but Wonder Howl spam was just that much quicker, plus even moreso if paralyze took effect.
And I use everybody, which is why I'm lvling everyone's weapons, Jupis is definitely my favorite character, and I have a soft spot for Steve Simon and Lilika... I know ><
 
Until recently I thought only weapons the toad said during Analyze could be fused. But I realized every weapon can be combined with every other weapon as long as its not a story weapon >.>

I think i have 1 of the ultimate weapons for jaster and 2 for kisala and zegram now. Working on the others D:
 
Yea, there's a shitload of weapon combinations lol.
I haven't touched this in 2 days though since getting to Rosa to go after the tablet >> FFVI Advance has got me hooked
 
Space Pirates pretty much sums it up, idk don't wanna spoil it.

Yeah, you can combine weapons other than the ones that he recommends, just the recommneded ones are the only ones listed in the frog log and they will usually be more powerful than a random combination. I've been trying to only stick to the combinations that toady recommends, to also help with the completetion tabulation with Mio. You need 100 analyzed combinations and to actually complete 50 of them to get 100% with Mio.

It's a true action RPG. It's similar to Zelda or Secret of Mana in that you have active control of when and how your character attacks and you gain experience and develop your characters similar to the system in FF12. But yeah, space pirates is what the story is about.

Oh, how's everyone doing on their insectrons?
 
I beat Rank E and havent been able to go back to do it again >.> I just keep trying to advance further lol

And I think I figured out what character ultimate weapons are like. Normal versions are all 300 damage and "+1" versions seem to be 314 damage. I can't seem to get anything beyond that for any character.

PS. I'm finally starting to get into the core of the story :D Chapter 10 out of 13 atm
 
Then there's the ghost ship, ghost ship extreme, the new planet Alistia added for the NA version/Director's Cut JP, and getting 100% for MIO's lists :P
Earthshaker(desert seeker IV is 374 attack I think), some of the ultimate Seven Star swords are 400 attack, there's one that at max lvl is 500 attack.(not a seven star though if I remember right)
I haven't done much insectron, I've caught a few here and there, lvled some up via battles/foods in the cages, but haven't entered a tournament yet. I'll get around to it eventually though.

Yeah, I meant the normal ultimate weapons were 300-314 damage. At this point the toad says they can't be made any stronger.. I know Jaster has tons of extra stuff, others might too.

There are a bunch of game-long side quests. In every area there are quotas of mobs you can kill to build up your hunter points to try to become the #1 hunter in the galaxy. Insectrons is kind of a pokemon-equse event; capture bugs, make a team(or breed them) and fight them together in a chess-like game in multiple tournaments. There's also a system of marks similar to FFXII's that you can do.

The only thing that's optional, but practically required is the development of your weapons and combining them together to make new weapons. You can just buy your weapons from the NPC's, but combining generally forms stronger weapons. There's also a factory side-quest that you can develop new items to be found in stores throughout the galaxy.

So yeah, there'sa shitload of stuff to do besides the actual plot. I'm only in chapter 6, but I've spent about 12 hours working on my side quests.
