Tournesol

Wish I had this beauty :)

Tournesol is still a big work in progress, but I have made a decent dent in the item gathering.  For starters I have had 99 arcanas for quite some time so I will meet the 60 arcanas requirement.  I knocked out the Wargod’s Band, scarletites, Hell Gate Flames, Damascus Steel, and Soul Powder.  So that leaves me with High Arcana x6, Snake Skin x12, Serpent Eye x6 and Feystone x4.

While I have been going after these weapons I have also tried to kill 2 birds with one stone.  I have almost leveled all my characters to level 99.  So that should happen very soon and once that happens I will then plan on going after the rest of the Espers and depending on how I feel and how much time I have left in any certain cast I will go after Omega, Hell Wyrm and Yiazmat.   Now I might be able to fit Omega and Hell Wyrm in one cast, but Yiazmat will definitely take me more than one cast, that is if I don’t get owned the first couple times.

My Final Fantasy XII Experience:

Ever since I started streaming this game I have seen a steady amount of people hating this game, but there are a few who have said that they loved it.  Most of the complaints are the fact that the automated battle system, the fact that the characters just aren’t that interesting or the storyline just wasn’t that interesting.  Now I’ll be totally honest, after spending about 50+ hours on doing side missions and getting weapons, I really don’t remember everything that is going on in this game, but I do know that I really like this game.

One of my favorite aspects of this game is the gambit system.  Some say oh well the game plays for you…well if your one of those people…then keep you gambits off and go old school (just to clarify, I still love FF VII and the traditional style too).  The gambit system has allowed me to go this deep into the game.  I really could not see myself going after Danjuro for as long as I did and having to mash buttons and do certain sequences of magics for hours and hours on end.  Although what would have really helped this game, I think, an open battle system.  If this game had a open battle system , and when I say open as in you can just roam and button mash the crap out of enemies, kind of like Kingdom Hearts.

Final Fantasy XII Characters

Now on to the characters, I do agree with some about the characters.  Vaan’s fake painted on abs and the cheesiness that just surrounds Vaan the whole game doesn’t do much for me.  I do find Fran and Balthier interesting as characters though.  I mean how often do you see a race of half bunny rabbit-half weird humanoid women with sexy voices :).  I don’t really care much for Basch or Penelo so I won’t spend much time on them.  I do like Ashe’s character though and I think the game does keep her interesting enough to want to go find out more information on her…and once she gets those swords I don’t know about you, but I really wanted to know how the game was going to end…so that is another reason why I am sticking this game out.

Overall, I’m glad I gave the game a chance even though I tried playing it 4 times (all restarts at random times over the past 2 years).  I would recommend the game to other Final Fantasy lovers and would hope they would look past some of the flaws and just play the game for what it is, Final Fantasy.

Watch me live on Friday here

Friday(Feb 12th) was another successful simulcast with FinalFantasyRadio.com.  We had, again, around 800 page views and I gained another 6 fans!!  FinalFantasyRadio.com also gained a nice amount of viewers :), which is what this is all about.

That being said there were some technical set backs but we got it up and running about a half hour after I was actually wanting to start.  We were trying simulcast on both channels ( http://justin.tv/tebian & http://justin.tv/webguy55) but for some reason the settings didn’t save and I didn’t really have the time to work on it.  So we will hopefully have that figured out by next Friday.

Summary of my last simulcast:

  • Defeated Esper Ultima Video:(Part 1 & Part 2)
  • Obtained Stone Blade
  • Obtained Yagyu Darkblade
  • Obtained Sage’s Ring
  • Obtained Zodiac Escutcheon Shield
  • Started Medallion Side Quest

Plans for Next Simulcast (Feb 26th, 2010):

Obviously I will be streaming with music provided by FinalFantasyRadio.com :).  But I plain to continue where I left off from the my last stream.  I will start off with the Medallion Side Quest and once that is completed I will try and go for the Danjuro weapon (this one could take awhile). This only drops from the rare monster Larva Eater.

Here are some facts on the Danjuro:

Danjuro

License Points: 110 Attack Power: 80 Evade: +5 Dagger (1H) Combo Rate: 10% Available: Infinite Earliest Access: During the events at Giruvegan The Danjuro is the strongest dagger in the game. It is also one of, if not THE, most difficult and time consuming item to get in FFXII. The only way to get it is via rare drop from the rare monster Larva Eater.

I will probably use this guide to aid me in getting this:

So check it out Friday Feb, 19th, 2010 (hopefully around 9:30am -10am start time)
