Play the PS3 version.Has no tearing.
Finally got some batteries.
And my main pawn.

The original article was actually quite good too, journalists just picked out that line and made shitty articles out of it

Itsuno was a big RPG fan, who would've guessed
I can't handle all the tearing in the 360 demo, though. I have no clue if it's better to simply be missing frames or to have ugly, distracting ones. This entire thing is ridiculous. We shouldn't have to choose between two horrible options. The only reason I'm getting the PS3 version is because I prefer using L1/R1 to bumpers with the default control scheme. The two demos are otherwise nearly identical visually beyond their performance, and the PS3 demo somehow feels just as responsive despite its lower framerate. There are just odd stutters here and there, and frames do actually drop during the dragon breath segment. Ugh.
I'd love to see this, too. I can't tell if it's raining at the end of this video, but with lightning flashing there could still be hope (unless it's scripted or something). A load screen in the demo also says that smaller characters have less resistance against wind, so there's at least that to look forward to, I guess. edit: Nevermind, it doesn't look like rain or snow will be in.
You're playing a hybrid between Demon's Souls/Dark Souls, Monster Hunter, and Shadow of the Colossus. Either you like it or you don't, but saying you hate it because it's dull and unrecognizable is weird.
-.- .. damnit.. Chimera. But I'd bet you 5 smackers manticores are in the full game... SMACKERS I SAY
, everything else play and control fine and has one of the the most robust combat system in an arpg, last time I played Skyrim the controls were pretty terrible and clunky with noticeable input delay playing a dual wield class on the ps3, while this game has a lot going for it with flexibility and depth on how a boss fight could go.I still don't understand the problem people found with the game outside of technical (framerate) issues and difficulty balance
and I don't know why people keeps saying "western", were anybody complaining Capcom made a bunch of D&D games in the 90s and games in english?
.You're overpowered in the demo. Kill your pawns in the first quest and solo the Chimera without using herbs if you want to enjoy a stiffer challenge. You won't be obligated to use a full party in the actual game, but you'll also have more trouble because the things can be quite relentless. With every injury, your maximum HP goes down until you can rest (think of getting cursed repeatedly in Dark Souls), and many quests seem like they'll be tests of endurance that require you to travel carefully over long distances. Many areas are unsafe and will overwhelm you, and, at night, the game practically becomes survival horror. Hopefully the new game plus adds more difficulty if things do end up too easy.
There's something that's been bugging me since I first played but didn't remember until just now:
When you create your character -- as in, the character that only you will see -- why do you have to pick a "moniker?" Something that only others will see, when no other person will ever see your character?
Unless...
Laziness.
I can't believe I haven't seen this video yet. C'mon, May 22!

There will probably be like 500 sephiroth and 800 Gutts on the list to go through.
Sweet, solo'd the Griffin.
15k XP, and two Griffin Claws dropped. Looks like you get more XP and better loot with fewer/no pawns.
That's soooo good to hear. But I think ill take at least one healer pawn. You know, just in case
