>RPG has a party member who is clearly superior to all the other in every way

>>715116283 (OP)
Verso and Monoco are better.

>RPG has a party member who steals all of your materia and cripples you
Stupid fucking bitch.

>>715116367
feels good

>>715116283 (OP)
Was this intentional due to her controlling nature?

>>715116283 (OP)
Cute male

>>715116283 (OP)
Verso has free aim bullshit
Maelle has God damage
Sciel has insane buffs
Lune has great AoE and heals
Monoco has...???

>>715116283 (OP)
You called?

>>715116634
You anon.
Monoco still has you.

>>715116634
Everyone's abilities.

>>715116634
Monoco can instantly break bosses.

>>715116634
>Verso has free aim bullshit
elaborate?

>>715116283 (OP)
FootGods win.

>>715117036
Verso is a machine gun who can burn through all his AP (which steadily refills with the right luminas) on free aim, then use that one skill that counts how many free aim shots you did in a turn for massive damage.

What the fuck was the dev’s problem?

>>715116634
Isn't the best damage from Gustave?

>>715116634

>>715116283 (OP)
Played 90% of the game with her solo. It was boring.

Its more like shes the easiest, with the least amount of steps, that can do the most amount of damage, with the earliest amount of Lumina's.
Both Before and After the damage cap. But sciel is actually my favourite to play as and has potential about as equal, it just takes way more effort and time.

Which is untenable in a game where you have to dodge or parry every fake ass attack. Shes not built for this type of game. The game needs better ways to stop the opponent from attacking period. Among other problem and flaws, like none of the synergy building meaning anything, and the fact that before I built shields for Sciel, I could get through every single fight with her basically immediately dying and still win, because once i got the rythm of parrying (eased by shield build) defense was a complete joke aspect of the game. The only thing, is that without the shield build, it would be more tedious and trial and error for reasons I wont waste my time mentioning because retards simply wont get it.

Despite all this criticism, and the fact that the game isnt even close to my top 15.

It made me open to the idea of liking JRPGs with its syngergistic systems. Genuinely well designed. Just not well put together, if that makes sense. (Lack of forethought in why or how particular Luminas should be used to overcome challenge, because there is none, strategically, or mechanically. Its halfway between the two)

>>715116283 (OP)
i actually got my first million + damage with sciel it came as quite a shock considering she was my 3rd damage dealer in the cast. her 3rd gradient is extremely OP. especially with the right lumina & skill setups.

>>715116283 (OP)
>Yes

>>715117595
anon, i...

>>715116634
my Monoco could apply shields on the whole team while applying heal + all 3 buffs at the same time.

>>715116634
Monnoco deals the most break damage by far.

>>715116634
I used Monoco for shield generation + teamwide triple buffs + team AP gen + enemy stunlock.

>>715116283 (OP)
Cunny sweet cunny bring your wetness unto me for the lust of my penis must be baptized with your wet flesh.

And it's not even close

>>715116283 (OP)
Verso is better and Monocco is more fun.

Wait what? Is he unlockable?

>>715116949

>>715116634
Monoco is good for his defensive abilities if you're playing the game in a way that is challenging, such as underleveled and undergeared and with challenge settings on, where you can't just kill everything in a few turns.

>>715117061
I travel as Sciel, because she has a DUMPTRUCK ass in swimsuit 2.

>>715116283 (OP)

>>715117061
I just didn't like the sound of footsteps and heavy breathing.

>>715116832
What the FUCK was his problem?

>>715117061
It's nice to switch for variety on occasion, but I hope /v/ is travelling as Gustave/Verso most of the time.
Please don't give me the troon "I just want to see a girl's ass" excuse.

>>715116634
Glaise Earthquakes are completely busted.

verso is way more broken

>>715116793
My imouto wife.

>>715124016
Verso and even Sciel are more broken for those that engage with the game mechanics. Maelle is broken for scrubs that played on normal with no modifiers and stendhaled everything.

I assume everyone had Sciel and Monoco on the B team, right?

Lots a LOT of respect for Sciel for being a massive, massiveWHORE

>>715116634
Monoco can do basically everything.
He is the best at applying shields to allies and the best at breaking enemies.
I like running him as a full support since his damage isn't that high.

>>715117061
yep gotta be Lune
>BRRRR IM A AIRPLANE

>>715116283 (OP)
Lune is better than Maelle. Even at the very end.
Storm Caller and Braselim are insanely broken.

Only yanks like lune. Maelle board

>>715121031
>he didn't get the Gustave surviving route
what a shame, he's so OP in late game that he makes Maelle look like support.

I don't think Maelle is that good until act 3. She spikes super early in act 1, especially if you got her weapon, but she has poor multi-hit moves compared to Verso or especially Lune's Trick->Genesis. Without that weapon, she definitely falls off even quicker since your setup to get to Virtuoso is either being targeted then parrying, or using a move to put you in it.

>>715127525
>Lune's Trick->Genesis
Lightning Dance*

why is there not more porn of this game

>>715123890
He had no problems. He's a kung-fu master, a member of the Ubermenschem, a brilliant scientist, and has a hot wife.

>>715127654
Because unlike other modern RPGs, the game isn't thinly veiled coomer slop

>>715120179
how the story would have progressed if gustave didn't throw the damn rock.
also i'm really hoping there's a DLC which provides a better 3rd ending. gustave & alicia link up to save lumiere & the painters. fat chance i know, but a nigga can dream.

>>715127525
maelle has the only tank capability in the game. tank stance + cover mechanic. she has things to do that isnt just stendhal button.

On New Game + my Verso was doing all the work, Maelle fell off.

>>715128214
but none of that is necessary. Its too easy to break the game ignoring Stendhal billions. You can find people playing 10 hours a day, so no spoilers about theorycrafting, just slowly see how all the +% damages would just get insane.

>>715116283 (OP)
What game? And why does it look so uncanny?

>>715126947
Monoco can have a very big damage first turn with the start in almighty stance staff+first strike(and similar)pictos+Dualliste, I typically did that before shifting him to full shield and break bot.

>>715129141
nothing is necessary with that mentality. why build attack? why build defense? just perfect parry everything.

in a game where literally everyone can do a bajillion damage a character doing a bajillion.1 damage makes no difference and maelle is the ugliest girl

>>715116634
Monoco gives everyone AP and shields

>>715127221
I just did the degenerate gambler Lune build where you fish for rainbow stains with free aim. Either you take out 30% of a boss' HP if it procs or 10% with the backup plan.

>>715116634
Retard damage second only to Maelle and infinite stuns.

GO away Maellefags

Are we getting a new patch this month?

>>715133431
I'd love to play a Steinway and Sons one day. My piano has gotten very rusty though.

>>715133431
This is your home, Verso

>>715123892
I genuinely feel bad watching the other characters huff and puff running at full speed constantly, so I just use Lune because she can just chill above the surface and float around

>>715116283 (OP)
I know you're doing a bit, but I unironically hate when this happens. Because you HAVE to use them.

>>715116283 (OP)
but tha's not glass canon always goes three times at the start of the battle invers-o Verso

>>715129183
>What game?
Expedition 33
>And why does it look so uncanny?
Unfortunately almost all the women in the game have this uncanny effect. The men are largely immune to it, although I still feel like they made Gustave's head way too fuckin big

>>715116949
>>715121942
kek

>>715116634
>Monoco has
can pretty much be good at everything, heals, damage, tanking, utility, breaks

he's kind of like what wow paladins think they are

>>715116283 (OP)
Verso could literally go 3 times his first turn and you think Maelle is better?

>>715116283 (OP)
>parry it!
>is the worse at parrying
?

>>715116283 (OP)

>there are people who didn't stack combo attacks, Dualiso, free aim and effects from defeating enemies in combat

Lune and Verso literally do all the work outside of pocket crits on bosses/mimes

MY QVEEN

>>715116283 (OP)
To be fair, she IS a main character.

>>715137918
I have to say that the lead writer making her self insert be the smartest best girl who gets to fuck the mc but isn't slutty about it (just "relieving stress") and is also the most powerful spellcaster is an incredibly based move.

Maelle WON
