Description I have a number of bad gaming habits that FFXII is breaking me of; here are a few. I think my favorite part of this strip is poor Penelo's expression in the last panel . Poor girl, I do like her, I promise. And Balthier really isn't this mean...just when I play him XD.

Aaaannd... number one would be the reason that I'm 93 hours into the game, and number three is something that I do ALL THE TIME. Waste my ethers? psh, phoenix down's are cheaper to get anyway, lol. Very nice!

Oh, God, that last one. I don't care if I have two billion gil, and the potions only cost 70. If I have to opportunity to walk around in circles until I have enough MP to cure my characters for free, I will.

hehehehe I can totally relate!

This game is very surprisingly time consuming, so many things rely on just how much time passes. Including gathering loot for gil and charging MP it's crazy!

Sapphire14 [2009-04-30 08:09:29 +0000 UTC]

Now that I'm actually playing this game this makes so much sense it almost hurts. XP

I especially like the part about R2. I used that the whole way through Ozmone Plain the first time. Balthier and Ashe proved to be the best broke field runners ever to hit Ivalice...

Why is it that we speak to random people everywhere in Ivalice..? ^^,; Dunno, might drag the player more into the FF world or something, get a better feel of the story you know? I think I've done all of the things in your two comic strips, heh..

2nd panel, let me guess - werewolf? Dang those things, first time I got killed off instantly. Only thing worse are elements.

This comic makes me smile. Cause it's true.

Sharky-chan In reply to cocohints [2007-09-04 13:56:15 +0000 UTC]

Yeah...my first experience with the werewolves went something like this: "Hmm, those look big and nasty. Penelo, you attack, I'm going to stay here....holy crap! Penelo?! Aaaagh! *runs away*"

I was not the kindest of party leaders .

I thought they couldn't possibly be worse than those owl creatures in that desert. Guess we were wrong, huh?

cocohints In reply to Sharky-chan [2007-09-04 20:53:35 +0000 UTC]

I still remember that turtle thing who summoned allies. And the esper Exodus, ugh! It is so typical that my whole party has died except one, who happens to have been stoped.. and he has like 2% of the lifebar left. I was really mad then.. Random creatures suffered for it and you get more licence points at the same time, lol.

Sharky-chan In reply to cocohints [2007-09-05 03:33:52 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, but I feel such satisfaction when I finish a hunt! It's worth the pain...kinda XD.

cocohints In reply to Sharky-chan [2007-09-05 22:40:08 +0000 UTC]

It was definatly worth fighting against that 1st demonwall in the tomb of Raithwall.. I think I let Vaan use the Demonsbane for quite a while, at least til the laboratory thing. It was the first real problem that faced in the game, that and that bloody king bomb somewhere in a forest.

Sharky-chan In reply to cocohints [2007-09-12 14:41:54 +0000 UTC]

Yeah...the first time I fought it, I got squished . As for the Bomb King or whatever, I think I ran away about three times before I finally managed to beat it >_>;;.

cocohints In reply to Sharky-chan [2007-09-12 18:36:31 +0000 UTC]

I had to have everyone level 50+ before it would die. >> That was my second attempt but you know. Also, the bounty hunter bangas chasing you in the Lhusu (?) mines I haven't managed to beat yet. "R2 is your friend." Meh.

Sharky-chan In reply to cocohints [2007-09-14 22:12:20 +0000 UTC]

I'm hoping they're impossible t beat, because frankly, I only tried once and two of my party members died immediately >_>. After that, it was panicked running through swarms of monsters and hasty Phoenix Down-ings _o_.

Aaah, I didn't even think of that! Have you ever managed to beat them? If you have, I'll have to go back and do that XD.

cocohints In reply to Sharky-chan [2007-09-18 20:37:01 +0000 UTC]

I tried.... I barely made it out alive... ^^,;

What I think you need to have is loads of items, magic protection, water mote if you have them, and high levels on each - at least 20+ if you're low level like myself. Maybe teckniques that hurts foes can help if magic can't, I've experienced them as useful against such foes. Like against elements.
