To me, the story is more about the characters - who they are, how they got framed, how they are going to not only clear their names, but stop the destruction of their respective cultures, and learn to work together. And even when you think that's what's going on, there's really an underlying plot! I found that very clever indeed.

I personally enjoyed the challenge of seeing what kind of equipment I could make, and if the armor that I forged would be effective. I loved playing around with the characters' skill sets, to figure out which set of skills worked best for the team as a whole. There's a little bit of a learning curve initially, especially in the formation of the team, but I caught on quickly.

What I really liked is how "deep" this game is - the story, the characters, how involved you get in developing them - it's much more custom than most games. So if you're looking for the kind of game that's "a girl wakes up, her mom sends her on an errand..." kind of thing, this isn't it. If you're looking for an RPG with meat on its bones, but with an emphasis on exploration (since you recover fully after battles, and enemies don't respawn), this is truly a work of art!

I am glad that someone else enjoys this game as much as I do+ +::YAY

I have all 13 cards, but only got "normal" rewards from winning fights. Nothing exhilarating, I would say. Please, tell me, good man, what is the huge reward I could have missed. +::O_o

It unlocks a secret fight at the end of the full party arena path, which then rewards you with an incredibly powerful augment and many awesome crafting materials, as well as the "gift of fortune" accessory which doubles gold and item drops.

I really like this game, but have 2 issues:
1. I don't know how to get back to the Arena?
2. I went to repeat the Aether...area, but the mosters are super strong suddenly! i choose the easy level - cause i want to explore, not battle all the time - but these repeat monsters are from hell! can i do anything to make them easy again? A patch maybe? I would like to explore everything - but these very hard battles spoil the game for me.
thanks

to get back to the arena - talk to Kesh- the little green man
as for the other problem - I think that the enemies do get stronger as your level increases

thank you,
but reg. the impossible to win monsters(when repeat): i always play on the easy level, and i manage to win quickly. I think this is a bug in the repeat- because monsters are like 20 times stronger and they wipe us almost instantly - this cannot be the expected behaviour - i did exit the dungeon fully believing that i'll simply start again. I would like to send this issue to developers - any idea how?

-3 passed out drunks added to the ending scene in honor of Dreamcoil TV
-Enemies have more moves that move your position
-Enemies have more channeled finishers

-Added a small tutorial about preemptive and surprise attacks
-High level repeatable enemies do not scale as severely
-Ezrum and Enkidu changes:
*Alexei highlighted like an objective
*”Defeat Alexei to end the battle” display added
*Move speed of enemies slowed down
-More detailed status bios for characters, added Lucian/Ingrid/Soha lore bios
-Lucian’s burning/shock/chill effects increased in effectiveness
-Simplified many forge recipes by eliminating many impossible combinations
-CTB indicators are now also highlighted during targeting
-Lucian’s “Spellblade” now also grants +50 AGI
-Secret arena battles a bit tougher
-Normal difficulty final bosses a bit tougher
-Hard difficulty final bosses re-calibrated to match typical late game players
-Briefly holding the Left Windows key will now minimize the Game in Fullscreen +, allowing you to access your desktop

So, Indi, no reply? From where can I download the new version? Because, as I said before, the links work only for so long after buying the game.

I am also unable to download the update because of an expired link. Can the poster 'harmonic' who notified us of this update let us know how to get the latest version?

I missed the 10 of Diamonds so I entered the final area, Arc Donarium, in hard level rather than my usual normal. Now that I have the 10 of Diamonds, how do I access the arena again? I don't see a way to get back to home base. I thought maybe I'd get a chance to go back during one of the final cut scenes, but didn't see a way there. :(


Edit: Found it. Switch needed to be turned on to activate portal.
