The doppelganger fight is so annoying

have you tried using Din's Fire?

It's possible to say NO to the count?

True story - that's exactly how you beat half this game's bosses.

I kid you not.

note to self - buy green potions

ONM confused me in the latest issue. They said that this game can take over 100 hours to beat when most people say that its 20-30 hours long. Maybe they were just confusing it with XBC. Is there anyone who's completed this game that can give make this clearer? BTW, this wasn't in their review, that was the issue before.

HAHAHAHAH no.

This is the shortest JRPG I've played in a very long time.

Ok, thanks. It must have just been a mistake then. I did find it very surprising when I read that as it was the first time I'd heard anyone say that.

ONM's biggest mistake yet.

hi, anyone here finished it already?
Hours playthrough?

I'm still going after 40 hours. It's easy to get distracted in the main town, the detail and level of interaction is amazing.

I beat it a few days ago, was LV70 and played 42 hours (compared to Xenoblade's 170 hours).

I have started the Newgameplus (LV99 now, chapter 32, 999999G, maxing out all items, weapons and gear) and I play online to get the online-only items.

A few comparisons to XB:
TLS has better characters, pace and story and online, and it doesn't feel very "Japanese".
XBC has more content/game length, more exploration, more overall depth and stuff to fiddle around with.

Both are about equal with their very good graphics and outstanding soundtracks and their simple and fun battle systems.

I give em both 10/10 because, well they deserve it.

Personally I like TLS better. Simply because I was glad when XBC was over (it was too long, too epic, too stretched), and I cried a tear when TLS was over (I dunno, there was something touchy about it compared to the confusing ending of Xeno) so I had to start a NewGame+ which is better in TLS also as you transfer just everything over to a new story.

And I like the unlimited inventory of TLS. I mean XBC had lots of space in the backpack, but you couldn't collect everything because there's not enough space. Unfortunately. So TLS is the better hunters&collectors/completionists/perfectionists game as well.

I fear I am totally stuck. I just can't beat the boss called Lesser shade, the boss found in the shady (I did that on purpose) tavern. Every time when Dagran shouts: "Don't let him replenish his health", he already has done it! Maybe I just am to weak. Maybe I don't have the right equipment. Someone on youtube did beat him in just a few moments. Since it looks like I can't leave the area, I think I am screwed!

what lv are you all you need to do (from memory) is get yurick to case fire everywhere to make it damageable then when he takes over someone difuse the girls magic circle to heal them

Bad news everyone apparently The Last Story is going to be a very limited release because Xseed thinks there isn't much of a market for The Last Story D|

Here's the source

They thought that with radiant Historia as well but looked what happened

"what lv are you all you need to do (from memory) is get yurick to case fire everywhere to make it damageable then when he takes over someone difuse the girls magic circle to heal them"

Easier said then done! Yurick does cast fire, and there are fire baskets around that you can kick into the boss. But that doesn't do it for me. I can't beat him!

Try diffusing them then And then lay into him with syrren and daggren if you stuck watch an example on YouTube or just give it a break
Also i finished it today and in my opinion its deserves Game of the year

Isn't it a bit early to be saying that? Unless you mean Wii GOTY then I can understand that as its unlikely that we'll see any announcements of new Wii games and out of the remaining Wii games to come out Pandora's tower looks like the only one that has a chance of being better than TLS but I think TLS looks like the better of the two.

No I meant in general yet again my opinions are likely to change when more games come out and I agree it probably will get WII G.O.T.Y unless something new comes out (unlikely)
