Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode

Thanks again - and another question! I can't seem to get any new Crimson VS cards. I've got literally hundreds of cards since the last new one. I have 13/85 left so roughly 1/6 should be new (not accounting for card rarity, admittedly) and I estimate I've got about 500-800 cards (which keep being di...

Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode

Thanks. Another question: how the hell are you meant to do the bike time trials? I remember them being a bit annoying but this is ridiculous. I have my bike as upgraded as possible from the shop by the guild building. Despite that I'm still 2-3 seconds off the top time on each course I've tried, and...

Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode

Anyone know why Alkaid won't respond to my greetings cards? I sent one and hours passed without a response and now I've sent a few more and still no luck. Are they all hanging back until a certain plot point?

Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode

Something that I felt when I first played these games but just came back qutie strongly is how the latter stages of Vol 1 feel quite rushed and odd - like how it leans WAY to heavily on ranking up in the arena to pad itself out - and then how long Vol 2 takes to get back on track again. There's a re...

Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode

It was only £28 ($37) on Amazon UK although it went up to £40 ($52) after release.

It seems like Bandai Namco didn't have much faith in it. It was unusually cheap and badly stocked.

Re: When did you discover this forum?

I'm pretty sure I'd have been on this forum around when GU came out, maybe before. I can't remember for the life of me if I have an account from back then but it's quite likely. I'd sign up to a forum for whatever game I really got into back then. Eitherway, here I am again with a new account despit...

Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode

Just a personal opinion, but I never quite get the "I have less time now I'm older" thing. When I was a kid and lived with my parents, I'd have school all day, then homework at night, I'd be expected to sit with my parents and talk with them a lot of the night too. If I played on a game fo...

Alchemize multiplier questions

Does the damage boost you get on weapons from upgrading them add to spell damage (I'd assume so) and healing amount (not so sure about this one)? Also, is there some handy formula for seeing when it's good to use a lower star weapon over a higher star one because it has a higher damage multiplier? F...

Re: Who is your favorite dothack character?

The characters that are most symbolic of the series for me are Kite, Tsukasa and Haseo, for obvious reasons. The character I most wanted in my party though, my waifu, if you will, is Alkaid. I think Atoli's a good character too. On one hand I find her kind of annoying, she's quite preachy and can be...

Re: Media Create Sales - Last Recode [PS4]

they only had 2 copies in,doubt too many people even knew about it but it seems odd to get so few copies of a new release in ^^' Yeah, it does. GU is in a weird place. GU is the kind of game where if you played it at the time, it probably made a huge impact on you and is remembered very fondly, but...

Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode

I'm loving it so far, and the nostalgia hits are amazing, but I really think they've messed up with the increased XP rate. I haven't been trying to grind exactly, just checking out different regions and refamiliarising myself, and my characters are already about level 34 during the arena ranking par...

Re: New to the boards? Introduce yourself here!

Hi. I joined the other day. I've been a fan of the series since the first quadrilogy although I've never actually finished that series! I've been into the series on and off since then but never managed to get through either main anime series. That's something I'm working on now. It's a series that's...

Re: Changelog

Thanks for this list. I've been looking for something like it. As someone who was totally obsessed with the original releases, this is really interesting to read.

Re: Media Create Sales - Last Recode [PS4]

I know that here in the UK, the game was sold out everywhere. Even my Amazon pre-order reverted to being sold out on release day. I had to wait another 4 or 5 days for the game to actually be sent out to me. It sounds like they really underestimated the demand.
