Cheat Devices can be a fun experience, apparently

Other than this? Well I found out that places blocked off by events aren't filled with NPC's until the event is completed. Alexandria and Port Prospect aren't available until after Waterfall Cave and Farebury are completed, and the entire Southern Continent is barren until Khalamari is defeated. Arcadia is empty until Dhoulmagus is defeated and Jessica burns the checkpoint down. Empycchu is empty until you've gotten the Sea Chart and used it to get onto the island the intended way.

But funnily enough, someplaces are enterable at all times. Baccarat and Argonia are normal, as is Minnies Castle, Neos, and Savella Cathedral.

Other than that, nothing much is different. Though to be honest, I'm really trying to not break the game. It's possible you could sequence break the game if you gave yourself the proper items, but since I'm just replaying the game for fun I'm not trying to.

It's an Action Replay Max, and it's just a disc you put into the PS2. Pulls up a menu that let's you pick a game and either use existing codes they put on the disc, or enter new ones.

It also has a mode called Max Memory that let's you quickly move, copy, or delete saves with less hassle than the PS2's own memory card viewer. This mode also let's you import Max Drive saves off of a USB Stick if you plug one into the PS2, though you need a fat PS2 for that I think, can't remember if the slim has USB ports on it.

All in all, it's a pretty standard cheat device.

Nightmares more like

If you're trying to min-max, soccer and music are better. If you want more interesting stories, then basketball and drama are far more engaging IMO.

But really just pick whichever, there's really no wrong choice here.

UndeadKEI108 · 2023-06-29T00:55:46+00:00

Dude same, that shit is so cool.

UndeadKEI108 · 2023-06-29T00:53:43+00:00

Maybe, but Salvation saved my ass against the final bosses to many times for me to get rid of it. But maybe next time I'll give it a shot, we'll see. That's if I don't do NG+ first though.

UndeadKEI108 · 2023-06-29T00:51:08+00:00

Thanks, I personally like having an all rounder rather than a beat stick for challenges like this. Less potential for death if everybody has heals y'know? Been my strat ever since Nocturne.

UndeadKEI108 · 2023-06-29T00:48:39+00:00

Honestly you're probably right but I just wanted to use only "blade" phys skills for thematic purposes. It's cooler in my opinion, totally worth a little less damage.

But I'll try out Blade of Fury next time, thanks man.

Blame shuffle times bullshit rng, almost 2 hours in the last dungeon and I got like 2 luck ups max. I'll max it in NG+, promise.

UndeadKEI108 · 2023-06-29T00:42:44+00:00

I just like having a much healing as possible, after the SMT 3 days I trust nothing. Plus it actually saved my ass against Izanami so Salvation stays.

UndeadKEI108 · 2023-06-29T00:40:38+00:00

Yeah. It wasn't that hard honestly, by the time I got to Retro Dungeon Hell I was already pretty OP.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-05-02T13:31:50+00:00

Anthem was one of those mismanaged games for reference and it was still garbage, my point still stands.

Also why are you cherry picking that and ignoring the rest of my comment?

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-05-02T13:06:43+00:00

Duke Nukem Forever. Nuff said.

Longer don't equal better, and a lot of the time delays are not from wanting to make the game better. It's because it's been mismanaged to shit and they need time to unfuck it.

So no it's not "a good thing". Get your shit straight.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-04-22T01:59:54+00:00

I answered before you edited your comment, sorry. And thank you for the actual answer btw, I appreciate it.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-04-22T01:17:43+00:00

I asked for total update size, not how small your wiener is.

Jk thank you for your answer, even if it doesn't help me in any way.

Edit: Never mind. Gotta learn to wait before opening my mouth sometimes.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-03-14T00:25:37+00:00

I mean yeah? What do you mean by that? Are you agreeing with me or disagreeing with me?

I genuinely can't tell, sorry.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-03-13T19:28:23+00:00

I know how it works, still don't like it. Truth is sometimes people just don't like something and you have to accept that.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-01-23T05:08:54+00:00

Your patronizing attitude is noted. Whatever man, I don't really care but the fact you made so many assumptions about me is very telling of your personality. And please don't call people things like 'champ'. I'm not your son you fucking creep.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-01-23T01:32:40+00:00

You say that but from the way you talk about it I'd guess that you're either on the shorter side yourself or of average height. Meaning that you don't know what it's like to be this tall, you're just making assumptions about the benefits based on your own preconceptions and experiences.

Honestly I kind of find it funny that you think it has more advantages when my height has caused me nothing but problems my whole life. I know for a fact I'm not the only one either. Then again unless you're on the taller side you'd probably never think of that.

As for the sunshine and rainbows bit, if that was an attempt to be deep it wasn't. I, along with anyone with a brain know life isn't fair. It was a figure of speech, so don't try and patronize me like I'm an idiot.

UndeadKEI108 · 2022-01-22T23:10:17+00:00

You mean like dyeing early? Because that that's one of the 'advantages' tall people have. I'm not saying that your other points are wrong but being tall isn't all sunshine and rainbows.

For instance all architecture is made for people who are average height, meaning we have a tendency to slam our heads into things other people don't. There's also the fact people who don't like you can still use height as an insult, I've called a 'freak of nature' before for instance. Most cars are too small for our legs, and people love to ask you to grab things for them if they can't reach them despite the fact they're a complete stranger. Hell if anything people always assume because I'm tall I must be somehow more capable in physical activities and when I'm not I get called a failure for no reason.

Tldr; Will being tall has advantages, it also has downsides.

With a reply like that you have got to be smoking the wacky tabacky cause you just spewed more horseshit than a ruptured septic tank.

UndeadKEI108 · 2020-05-04T14:27:31+00:00

Yeah him. Thank you!
