Re: RPG Pet Peeves...post your's

I cannot stand having to fight weak characters toward the end of games, especially in random battles that cannot be avoided. In a game like Skies of Arcadia (anybody have a Dreamcast?) you'll end up spending enormous amounts of time fighting battles that are not challenging in the least, give almost no experience, and take forever while not advancing the storyline. There is no way to avoid this until the game is almost over.

As opposed to FF8 where you face bosses every three steps towards the end? That's artificial difficulty <_<

As for that Barret scene... best not let Jack Thomson know about that.

This is exactly what happened in both of the Balders Gates game on the PS2.

The final boss was ridiculously easy and it left me thinking 'is that it, surely the game is not over' not a challenge what so ever.

I was robbed. lol
