noodles: Eh, good luck. RoS has a retarded difficulty curve.

Kimi no Yuusha: Finished main story. First off, final party rants.

Tio - Since she was the first character I saw and had to "put" up with, to put bluntly, it seemed like I was going to hate her guts for most of the game, but the way the character development was going, I was really able to see her become a better person, especially with the things that happened before the final encounter and during the ending. Gameplay wise, she was an extremely powerful nuker, doing 2nd gamebest damage (gamebest damage is reserved for another guy) and having the resources to maintain that damage. Her only major weakness is craptastic durability that is only salvageable through twinking. Her unique skillset is also very much catered towards her nuke aspect, with Magic Missile being great ST damage and you can choose between Drive Flare or Magicuran for MT damage. Of course, there are also storeboughts and treasure chest finds, especially the Starbook Highgrade, which gives Blasts of all the elements (Heavy ST damage of a particular element, Freeze Blast inflicts SLP). I dunno, probably high middle. Or low heavy.

Wanda - For a majority of the game (he is the second one to join) it is thought that he is the hero, well, some spoilerish crap happens at the end and you find out otherwise. Anyway, he's the typical happy-go-lucky kid who's only really serious at certain times, he seems more of a dreamer bubbly type than anything else. During the ending, though... Anyway, for the early-half of the game when Wanda wasn't doing enough damage I assigned him as a healer for a bit, then when I started completing his skillset I changed his role drastically, he became a side-attacker to augment the party in terms of damage, as boss durability in this game is nothing short of completely ridiculous. I think he's 3rd gamebest damage or 4th.

Tango - Alchemist dude who I've really come to like. He seems kinda cold at first but actually, he just likes to be rational. I like that in people. Especially in his riddle quest. He outsmarts the old man by giving him a riddle he can't solve. "GIVE ME THE ANSWER! I MUST HAVE IT!" and such. In game, he was hardcore support, using his Alchemist Wall for 90% of the game to provide MT Def up, then I replaced that with Armor Aura and Mind Aura to provide both MT Def up and MT MDef up, and gave him healing/revive and some attack in case he's not doing anything. His damage is pretty meh but then again he is a supporter/offense, not of one extreme. His stats are /extremely/ balanced and since healing is so damn cheap in this game he can afford to attack pretty often. Overall very solid.

Dranko - A dwarf who is not really a dwarf. Dwarves in this game are really cute things that resemble teddy bears without fur. Or something. I don't know how to describe it. Anyway, he's a silent guy, and through the 20 episodes I've had him he only spoke ONCE, and that was during a quest. He is also the chief of the Dwarves. In-game, this guy is absolutely brutal. Gamebest damage, gamebest pdur, and such. His mdur is less desirable, but he has the HP to pull that up a little. Buffs up his attack, then goes crazy with his skills. He has Armor Break to lower enemy DEF and it also deals considerable damage, a little stronger than the typical physical, which, from Dranko, is pretty damn high (4000~). Very very good. I've used him 100%.

I really didn't use the others much because simply put, I was too attached to the final four to really want to use any of the others. Maybe in my post-game exploits I'll talk about those. But anyway, these four together were able to mow the floor down with the final boss, who is a 3-form formchain. Total HP is 430000 which is insane really.

Rune Factory 2:

[spoiler]
They've changed some of the control schemes to make things easier. You can now toggle running with R, which is quite handy. I don't like shop/sell system, which now has sale items in clusters of 9 rather than individually. To only buy one item you must click it so that it splits apart. Also, things seems quite expensive and the price of grass and bamboo sprouts has plummeted. You only get 5G for grass and 15G for sprouts, which were 10G and 150G previously.

I haven't decided on a bachelorette. None of them strike my fancy yet. Alicia's too slutty, Mana is boring, Julie is boring... Maybe Rosalind, but only because I lust for her brother. Where is my gay Rune Factory marriage, dammit?!

I picked Felicity last time and regretted it. I don't want to make the same mistake!

Anyway.

More Rune Factory 2:

[spoiler]
I went to the monster-filled Island and battled orcs with only garden hoe, because I don't have a sword yet.

Oh yeah.

I'm liking the game so far. I'm a bit frustrated that stuff is so expensive and forage items so cheap. General rule of thumb is I'm poor enough in real life that I want my video game characters to just be FLUSH with cash.

And I'm thinking either Cecilia or Rosalind for marriage. Rosalind is kinda pretty. She's nice, at least, which is a change from the typical Rich Bitch archetype.[/spoiler]

Nu uh, Kino. I like it when money is hard to come by in the first half of the game. It makes it interesting. "Ok... I have enough for my first *insertsomething here* but just a little more and I could get *insert* which could get me more money quicker... but I do need my money now... ooooh, what to do, what to do!" XD

[Kinokokao]

That's true, but I'm having to go to bed at like 4pm because there's nothing else to do and I have no money with which to do anything. I don't mind when it's hard to come by, just not EXTREMELY hard. It'll be wicked easier when I'm able to harvest my first field.

Kimi no Yuusha - Doing some GRINDAN in the Gallery to Confusion B11F-B20F. The Gallery to Confusion is the final bonus post-game dungeon. And it has 100 floors. There is a super tough boss at each 10th floor. Lots of nice treasure to be found.

I have about 4 battle circlets, 3 angel wing hats and 3 star charms just from one trip!

[Kinokokao]

Oh, well now I feel stupid.

[spoiler]
So I didn't think it'd let me explore the caves with just my trusty hoe, but it did. And I found some grapes which I sold for 1000G... -______-;;; OOOOOOPS that would have helped to have a week ago. OH WELL.

Now I have a sword and shield. The farm-type monsters I couldn't beat to death with the hoe, and they didn't try and attack me, either.

The request system is an interesting development. It is the means to which I can acquire the rest of my farm tools, so right now I'm doing a quest for Cecilia so I can get the pet glove and tame me some sheep and a cow.

Prospective brides:
Rosalind -- pretty, and polite
Julie -- free baths after we're married is a great perk
Dorothy -- she's shy, but kinda cute
Yue -- nice outfit, good personality
Cecilia -- I'd... feel a little pervy. Just would.
Mana -- nope. Hate her father.
Alicia -- free fortunes might be fun, but she's just so slutty looking.

Right now Rosalind, Julie and Dorothy are in my top three. The whole free baths thing is sadly the main reason Julie's up there.

Makes me feel like a /b/-tard every time I say it -_-;

Fine, then the phrase "bad ass."
