Or Rouge Galaxy, to you fools.
Yeah, I know. Mej. Level 5. Not a great mix. Looking through my post history, you'd probably catch hints that my love affair with Level 5 typically begins and ends with Dragon Quest VIII (and potentially, IX!)
I loathed Dark Cloud and gave up on it after about 10 hours.
Despite playing through all of Dark Cloud 2 (100+ hours!), I was left feeling rather cold on the game.
And my only real experience with Rogue Galaxy was the demo, which left me feeling very apathetic towards the full game (which I then went ahead and bought, only to throw on my PS2 shelf.)
Well, here I am, starting up a file. I'm this little runt, Jaster-with-a-shitty-name enjoying the awesome music in this besieged desert town, now infested by all kinds of beasties. So far, I'm enjoying myself much like I was in the beginning of Dark Cloud 2. I don't know if I'll be able to stick through it, ala DC2, or give up party way, ala DC1, but... wish me luck! Who's with me? Who wants to join in?
Also, I believe I read long ago that the US version had content added over the JP game, and possibly a bit of rebalancing here and there. Anyone have the details?
Edit - I imagine that the story summary that plays during that initial save game load is supposed to hide the load time, but is there any way to skip it? I've got the game installed on my PS2's HDD, so the load usually before the first paragraph is done displaying...
Edit - Gotta give it to Level 5, though. They make the PS2 look good. Really effin' nice presentation.
