I finally got my Skell.

The text is a good size for me.

  • Storm the Castle (77BD-0000-00E0-A9C0)

My character, slightly scarred, sci fi/anime silver hair, number on his face to indicate he was ex-military/prisoner/experiment subject. Called him Grey after Gray in Fairytail, which also matches the hair. Chose the rebel voice but was seriously geeking out at being able to choose between so many awesome Funimation regulars.

Better above.

Went out to face my first tyrant. Went to change gear. Fuuuuu, a million stats, barely readable text and no tutorial? After XB wii they seem to have lost the art of decent introductions to the game systems and this tiny ass text isn't helping.

Seriously considering starting over so I can name my character after our daughter. I'm not all that far in yet. For some reason it feels comforting to go on this large journey with her...

I almost want to start over now to see if I can create a decent Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood character.

I think everyone deserves to go on at least one epic adventure.

You could make a decent Edward, not sure about anyone else. He might end up looking like Shulk and you can choose the Shulk voice actor too.

Is there no way to turn the music volume down? Sometimes it plays really loud during a conversation and you can't hear the deets.

Awesome, if you press X on the gear page you can just select the strongest gear option.

I haven't come across any but I'm very early.

I sat down on the floor close to the tv to read the combat arts screen, yea it's just like XB, very nice to use, love it. I chose Curator for critical hits, figured it's best for bosses? Started wanging on those tall cow things. Loving the game now.

I wish I could turn the music OFF, nevermind down.

How else would it be 300 hours long?

Phew, game throws tons of concepts your way without muc decent explanation but you can play hassle free either way most of the time. I think the game is too concerned with narrative consistency, when it could just say for instance - here's the online mode, team up with other players to complete missions. Instead it's like- begin searching for Blade personal etc probe etc

Anyone else deliberately take off helmets because they ruin the cutscenes? Looks so stupid.

Any way to keep the helmet stats but get rid of it visually? How does this fashion thing work?

Anyone find new LA almost too big? I only have half the city uncovered and it feels like I could explore it for a week.

There is an option in the settings to remove headgear. It is still on but you can't see it out of menus.

To change "Fashion Gear" go to "Ground Gear" Under the party menu when the name is highlighted press X instead of A and choose "Change Fashion Gear" for my party members I make their "Fashion Gear" be their default clothing.
