FF Crystal Bearers: Wherein NonCon can't see a goddamn motherfucking thing
 
Okay, seriously what the fucking shit is up with this goddamn camera. Moving through corridors is like someone taking a ballpoint pen and alternating which eye they fucking stab you in. The platforming has potential, and the combat isn't completely terrible but seriously guys THIS FUCKING CAMERA.

Fucking Christ I cannot remember the last time I saw a camera this terrible. I am desperately searching for a worse example of cameraman-ness than what is in this game.

Past that, it's mildly fun to dick around, and I liked throwing people down the garbage chute. I don't give a damn about the plot, and wish there was some actual combat beyond "Throw shit, motherfucker!" but it wouldn't be half bad if it weren't for the camera.

To be honest, i found it boring.

Yes, the camera is fucking terrible, and the combat and platforming mildly amusing. I also liked the main character, Layle... actually for some reason, the subtitle says Layle, even though everyone in the game keeps saying it like it was "Leo" for some god damn reason...

The game looks good, voice acting is actually pretty nice and the story seems to have potetion to actually go somewhere.... but i could'nt care for it. I just kept thinking "Fuck this, i have Chocobo Mystery Dungeon..."

Looked this game up on YouTube.

I want to know why it looked like Final Fantasy Xtreme Beach Volleyball for no reason for like 10 seconds.

Because Belle, the worst character in the game. She's worse than the camera.

Speaking of the camera, by about the time I first rode the shuttle I was using the d-pad to steer and the analog stick was for moving forward. This mostly solved my camera problems, though the fights in the Areal Prison still end up being "Shit! Shit! Where are the robots oh god!" moments.

Holy fuck this got 30/40 from Famitsu. Why. Maybe the voice actors are less painful in Japanese but goddamn.

Ugh, yes. Useless, screechy, narcissistic twit.

To clarify on the beach Xtreme Beach Volleyball bit, Selkie females have a game where they try to use their asses to knock each other off a buoyant platform (and while a wanted criminal referees, but hey details), to settle territory disputes and other things.

The aerial prison fight was ridiculously fun for me. It's a shame there weren't more enemies you could just rip apart like that instead of simply throwing (things at) them

Why does anybody play this horrible franchise in the first place?

Mirai Gen 01-25-2010 01:18 PM

That...that may be the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.

Loyal 01-25-2010 01:45 PM

And now it's the stupidest thing you've ever seen as well.

I enjoyed it, actually. I had a lot of fun with combat once I progresed from "throw crap at things" to "grab enemies and use their abilities against each other". I had so much fun thrwing monsters at Bombs and watching the bomb explode, taking every monster around him with it.
