    Good, I thought I had missed the guy in Uhra like I had for the Cubic Music Score stuff (as a result I don't have the 1st one).

      I hit disk 3 this weekend. Can't play much during the week. I agree, I haven't played a game this good in a long time.

        Does it seem like the game has gotten easier to anyone? I pretty much cruised through the Ice Cavern boss.

          Yeah it definitely gets a hell of a lot easier. Around level 80 now with Null all elements, Null status ailments, and high defense and HP, basically steamrolling everything at this point. I think though had I not grinded (actually I am stuck in the Temple of Enlightenment and a few of the battles give a level every time) for levels and just went with the storyline instead of doing all the sidequests it would have been tougher. You get those great accessories from the side quests.

          Some of the backyard battles though can still be tough, even at high levels.

              Disc 4, go back to Gohtza (Low Town). Take the elevator and a new location will be present on the menu called Backyard. You have to advance past a certain part of the story, I forget what off the top of my head though. The npcs will be there, but they say the battles are closed until you clear a certain part of the story.

                    I agree, next to Mass Effect, this has been my favorite game for the 360, but it's closing the gap really quick.

                      Re: Lost Odyssey Impressions

                      I just started disc-4 so I've begun preparing to play-through this game again. To make the next play-through feel like a different, more challenging experience I've put together a list of 'House Rules'. I figured I'd share them with everyone to see if there are any holes in my challenge:



                      Rule #1. No Skill-Linking: The immortal characters can only learn new skills from accessories. By doing this, I think it allows the mortal characters to maintain their uniquness.

                      Rule #2. Items have been restricted for certain classes (details below).

                      Rule #3. Each character has been given a class and can only use accessories and spells that are associated with that class (details below):


                      Kaim - Melee - Cannot equip accessories that relate to casting magic or use items.

                      Seth - Melee - Cannot equip accessories that relate to casting magic or use items.

                      Tolten - Melee - Cannot equip accessories that relate to casting magic or use items.

                      Jansen - Black Mage - Cannot equip accessories that relate to combat, can only use damage-dealing items, and can only cast Black Magic spells.

                      Ming - Composite Mage - Cannot equip accessories that relate to combat, can use all items, and can only cast Composite Magic spells.

                      Sarah - White Mage - Cannot equip accessories that relate to combat, can only use restorative items, and can only cast White Magic spells.

                      Cooke - White Mage - Cannot equip accessories that relate to combat, can only use restorative items, and can only cast White Magic spells.

                      Mack - Spirit Mage - Can equip all accessories, can use all items, and can only cast Spirit Magic spells.

                      Sed - Ranger - Cannot equip accessories that relate to casting magic and can use damage-dealing items.



                      So there are 4 characters that can fight on the front-line, 4 characters capable of healing/support, and 4 characters capable of ranged-damage...I think it balances out.



                      Thoughts?

                        As good as this game is....I'm not sure I could ever replay a JRPG unless ten years have passed and a remake has been made on a handheld console.

                          Lol word. I replayed ES but that's because I had to to get the achievements. Other than that I don't play jrpgs more than once.

                            I'll probably run a New Game+ to make sure I learn all the skills and other stuff I've missed. I might even turn on the English voice actors.

                              That's what I'm going to do- I think it will be a different experience with English voice-acting.

                                Yeah, I think I heard a short clip of Jansen's english voice and it sounded pretty comical. Granted, his japanese voice might be considered comical to those who are japanese.
