Trollololol stomped Red Dragon and Chimera on a chain run, what a difference just two levels made XD

Though Lost Woods B Boss, good fucking lord

Encounters B Boss

Me: Snickers, this will be cake

Begins to wail on boss seeing its hp go down rather quickly and am happy

Boss begins its counteroffensive

Me: WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!?!?!

I’m dead in 3 hops

Me: wtf noooooooooooooo, it wasn’t supposed to end like this!!!

Comes back, and am flattened again in a fiery green nightmare

Me: no more, please!

Have to pay to revive, and finally, somehow, manage to put that fucker down

Me: -_____________________________-"

Wow I did not realize how impossible to find this game was going to be. I screwed up hard on this one.

Neesa · 2013-08-11T03:08:11.000Z

I had a hunch, hence why I pre-ordered mine. Especially when there was only 1 copy of Muramasa at one of the two Game Stops near me. But, unless you really need to have the physical copy, you can just DL it from the PSN.

angelpalm · 2013-08-11T03:09:43.000Z

Amazon.com and you get the artbook if you are lucky like me.

Just download it off of PSN.

I did.

Works just as good as a disc, and you can play with people who have the disc version.

I want physical copies of whatever games I can get.

Neesa · 2013-08-11T03:18:10.000Z

Try Amazon, like AP said. If not, you’re a bit assed out unless you start calling around stores to see if they have any copies left.

devastator · 2013-08-11T03:22:51.000Z

I’m getting stomped on hard. Most of the AI dies before I even get to a boss. I’ve been so dumb leveling up random skills for my Elf too lol. This game is fantatsic though, you can feel all the love that was put into it.

Ragnorok64 · 2013-08-11T03:25:21.000Z

How much do you think that idiot at Kotaku’s article actually ended up helping this game? I was talking to someone at one of the Gamestops I tried and he made it seem like they weren’t getting many pre-orders until Kotaku blew it up.

King9999 · 2013-08-11T03:35:12.000Z

Something to keep in mind for the future: *any *Atlus game isn’t going to be easy to find after a while. It’s just how they operate.

BEWD · 2013-08-11T03:35:52.000Z

^I’d say the Polygon review helped more than anything Kotaku ever did. I saw that review getting blasted all over the internet, and especially the ingenious comments such as DC being a rape manual ensured a ton of gamers bought it just to piss polygon off. That combined with Kotaku equals a win-win for Dragon’s Crown and a lose-lose for Feminism. >: D

Million · 2013-08-11T03:42:34.000Z

and that annoys the hell out of me with Atlus games… like “ok guys, here’s 25 copies total for the entire world…everyone else from customer #26 on is just S.O.L.” Nah, guys…how 'bout you print more copies?

Fortunately, the modern era of digital distribution eliminates that problem…you can just have the shit whenever you want if you pay the price for it (*I wouldn’t be surprised if the regular PS3 version is tough to find either…and a few months from now you know it will be IMPOSSIBLE to get the physical version)…though yeah, I also prefer to have physical copies of games. I was lucky to actually get one.

King9999 · 2013-08-11T03:45:13.000Z

Here’s the funny thing: Atlus has been operating like this for decades and it’s worked out well for them.

Is it just me, or does anyone else have problems with connectivity?

Neesa · 2013-08-11T03:54:28.000Z

I get random some connectivity issues at times. It’s been decent at the moment, since I’ve just been joining random games. Got to lvl 30 on my Elf. Dem kick combos go so hard. I wanna find more %Kick damage boots. I only have 16% Kick damage, so, here’s hoping these chain runs give me something better.

Pterodactyl:

I’d have liked to run play some games with you guys, but it seems I may have over leveled you a smidge.

Gonna start on the Dwarf until you guys get around lv60, because i’m done with all of the sidequests on the fighter and I don’t feel like going through all the path B bullshit yet.

Well i’ll start him after work.

Could you hook me up with some tips on creating a decent fighter? Right now I am at lvl 11 and I do okay, but for some reason I find it difficult to get where I want to be. So what should I be doing to earn better treasure, experience, etc?

Don’t waste points on shockwave or judgement, save those for last.

Wealth for health is also useless.

I posted this a page or two back:

I don’t know if any of this can be considered fighter tech or not but.
-Cover allies is more of a buff for you than anyone else, it buffs anyone inside the shield circle’s damage up to +100% including you. Meaning everytime you block an attack you get a +100% damage buff, off of any attack you block, ever, at all.
-This is great because you can counter after block and stun enemies, the buff will guarantee a big punish.
-Another plus to it is the reflex guard, which gives you up to a 50% chance to guard attacks when you aren’t actually holding block, and it’ll completely block multihitting attacks aswell. This means about every other time you get attacked you will block AND get a +100% damage buff.
-With points in distraction you can get up to a 30% damage buff an you’ll aggro enemies around you, making it easier to get attacked so you can block and get a counter and/or buff. Damage buffs stack as well it seems.
-To get the full effects of all of this you’ll want to invest in shield tactics so you can block bigger attacks, even most bosses’ insta kill’s, I’d assume you can also block longer without your shield flying out of your hand, and you’ll be moved less while blocking as well.

You can easily be doing double(or more) damage all the time once you get certain skills up with the fighter and know when and how to block.

As far as general usage, use tackle often(dash plus square, or hold square and forward to dash and let go of square) to both start and end combos, especially against zombies, it’ll knock them off of the screen keeping them from exploding or biting you from the floor, it also looks cool as fuck knocking enemies out if existence, with then leaving coins on their departure like cartoon characters. Blocking isn’t really needed against most goons but its amazing against bosses if you invest in shield tactics, which you definitely should. With enough points you’ll be able to block insta-kill attacks from some bosses.

Cyclone masher and tempest edge are must haves, only level up rebuke to two unless you use it often or like going barefisted. Sacrifice is a useless, entirely.

For leveling, dump skill points into the second common skill, the one that boosts the value of coins, adds up a whole lot with all the various bonuses. Score = experience, pray for the score bonus at the church. Buy all the runes, write down the score boosting ones, especially the double score bonus, DSB, the D and B look like cents signs or money, except one is reversed. Click every sparkle, sometimes you’ll get a bright yellow glow after clicking one, and if you keep clicking it you’ll get a bunch of point items. Kill thieves always.

@Combo_Knight:

Upon some more playing I'll retcon my opinion of evade. It's actually extremely versatile, along with my using it for a quick get away/deadly revolve attack on the way out, I also found that I could evade in four different directions, XD. That gets really useful for some of the hard hitters(like a certain fucking rabbit I met earlier today), so I'll likely take some points out of hp max so I can max evade. Fuck Ammy goes from Wonder Woman badass to a goddamn ninja with a BFA. Rest of my build stands though as well as my opinions on the bnb

I feel you. I called every Target, Wal-Mart and Best Buy in my closest 2 cities and nada. I got mine off of Newegg because they have no shipping charge for this game.

Hey, If you want to go free 99 I suggest you hook up with someone who has the digital copy and agree to a trade, which is what I should’ve done now that I think about it.

Neesa · 2013-08-11T04:38:14.000Z

I’m hopping on the PSTriple, for all those that wanna do some runs.

Rhio2k · 2013-08-11T04:53:42.000Z

WOOT played for like 40 minutes and jumped 4 ranks up to 20 (I love how fast net play gets you levelled up), scored 4 talismans (4 more and I can take on Shendu- uh, I mean the ancient dragon), and got an s-ranked weapon (which I can’t use until I go up 2 ranks). This is grinding I don’t mind…nothing like regular rpg bullcrap.
