Guest Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 nah you need to speak to Sid in the tavern of the 'ghost' village, then get the airship from the desert, the beserkers are supposed to be too hard to beat, and the goblins are supposed to give you no xp so you can't powerlevel in the newb area.......

illdog Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Yea, i retract all previous statements. I didnt realise you could equip weapons in both hands. Also i managed to talk to everybody but Sid. And now i like the game I played the original on the NES last night too, its very funny! U start with all four characters from the off and obviously its a graphical abortion but the music is the same, just in 8 bit glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickled Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I've hit an annoyance patch with this game, bout 8 hours in and can't be arsed with the utterly repetitive dungeon crawling and ridiculous high amount of random battles must persevere though bt yoshis island is calling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 To be honest I found this one over far too soon...I think Pokemon Ranger lasted me longer and more fun too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swallow Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I got my arse handed to me by the first enemy in the first dungeon, and haven't switched the game on again. Golden Sun arrived and is SOOOOO much more fun to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 BUMP-O-RAMA! I started this yesterday, got a couple of hours in and can now change jobs. What do people recommend? As it stands I've got the main dude as a red mage so he can use attacking and healing spells, a white made, a dark mage, and a thief that I'm thinking of changing to a soldier as my characters seem to have no kind of attacking power at the minute Which brings me to the next point. I've not given the main character a weapon because without one he's got 20 attack, with my best sword 15. Same with everyone else, give them a weapon and they plumit from 20 to 3 Do they get better with the weapons the more you fight or are they just gimped and the point is to get a weapon that does something special? Other than that I'm really enjoying it, although I think i'd rather the game just assign a job to each character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I think the problem with the weapons might be related to their classes, i seem to remember classes like knights being effective with swords and mages being effective with staffs etc. more jobs unlock as you play the game, and my final setup was a dragoon, a dark knight, a devout and a summoner. i did level a thief up once, but i used him for one reason only and that was to steal a fire spear (one of the games mega weapons, i forget its actual name) from the Odin boss. apart from that i never used the class. I think i started out with 2 warriors, a red mage and a white mage. i upgraded the warriors to knights at some point and then the white mage and red mages to a devout and a summoner respectively towards the end of the game (and around the same time give or take, the knights upgraded to a dark knight and a dragoon).

DANGERMAN Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I think the problem with the weapons might be related to their classes, i seem to remember classes like knights being effective with swords and mages being effective with staffs etc. no, even equipping the mages with 2 staffs their attack is fuck all, stronger without. Also the wind sword or whatever it was called that was my most powerful sword can no longer be equipped by anyone (even the warrior) which is a pisser as one of them can still use swords. Maybe i have to hit a certain level or something. It's a good game but fuck it could make things clearer Anyway, all this has forced me to reload my save and change so that I've got the main guy as a warrior, which is a shame because i wanted 2 healers. Then a white, dark and monk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 maybe your weapons are just a bit bob? or can they hold more than one weapon at once or something? i cant remember if they can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I struggled with the weapon system, its too fucking brutal that game anyway, I say you quit while you're ahead and try FFIV instead, that has the dedicated classes for each character. Better story too, I don't think FFIII even has one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 maybe your weapons are just a bit bob? or can they hold more than one weapon at once or something? i cant remember if they can Yeah you can double weapons up, but even then everyone bar my main character is stronger without. I'm sure that'll change as I progress and get better weapons. Apparently this is quite short, like 30-40 hours. I'm not sure if i read that here or on gamefaqs, any truth in it though? And if I enjoy this i may well pick up FF4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 yeah thats definitely true, funny i was just saying that to my bird before. 30-40 sounds about right, im not a huge FF expert at all but it was markedly shorter than FFXII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambob Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I played the un-updated version before they released this fancy version and didnt actually realise for a good while that I was playing the same game. Its a good game, never really too hard I didnt think, which is nice actually, of course its tough in parts, but so long as you make sure you level up every now and again then its alright.
