White Knight Chronicles: Hours Of Story, PSN Co-Op

[Meko]

I'm not saying that I won't try the game nor am I saying the game sucks because of the reviews. I was just saying that I tend to look at the ratings just to get an idea. I'll likely give it a shot regardless of the actual reviews anyway. I just like to see what the 'experts' say.

[Lucavi]

Honestly I'd pick it up only if you don't already have a ton of new games. The game -is- grindy, both off- and -online. You'll have to grind for money to upgrade your town, grind for materials, grind for ranks for online side quests, and grind in just about every other situation.

If you just loved the days of stomping the yard (Valkurm Dunes!) with a pack of friends for a few hours, then yeah, pick it up. You wouldn't be getting this for its story, though.

Is there a dye system for armor? I want to run around in pink armor and stuff

[Rydir]

There is a lot of grinding but I don't know if I would compare it to Valkurm Dunes, it's more of a Monster Hunter feel. At the end of every quest is a Boss battle, those bosses drop crafting mats at a low%.

You can get a better chance of a boss item dropping by attacking that portion of the body, for example if you need a wind dragon horn you have to attack its front legs until they give out and his head drops. After its head drops if your can get a combo crit you have a chance of breaking the horn off.

That sounds really fucking cool.

did anyone get it yet?

[Rydir]

I will tell you now if US people play anything like JP players, 2 months after game is out you wont see anything but Lances and 2handed swords because they are the melee classes with meditate so they can store action chips (AC) before boss.

You used to be able to meditate with 1 weapon and then change weapons but a recent update changed that so you loose your AC when swapping weapons.

that's what she said

Is the online component working yet? I bought the JP version when it came out but didn't play it much.

Insane post your hot female character when she is completed.

And are people doing mics or keyboard I need to know before my Kyo copy gets here tomorrow/Friday. I have mic but may need to grab a KB.

[Qalbert]

[AoE]

I wanna go and get it but I don't wanna get uuuuuuuuuuup!

[Arew]

I have a mic, no keyboard though.

[ArchDizzle]

For anyone with a keyboard what do you use/prefer? I saw the keyboard/text controller attachment does it work well? If I get an actual keyboard has to be wireless since I am 12'+ from the TV.

[Katlan]

Can you do the Online stuff right away? Figured most of the content was instances where you run stuff over and over again for a chance at loot, but that it's more end game'ish content

[Zilong]

Online stuff is unlocked after you finish the first chapter

[Arelian]

Gamefly says it should be shipping to me today!

[Tobi]

Just went and picked my copy up but won't be able to play it until later QQ
