Really?

So, I finally finish the G.U. games after putting it off again and again to the point in which they started to collect dust (thanks to college and getting caught up in other games, ie Persona 3, Soul Nomad, Odin Sphere, etc). Granted, I had spoiled the living hell out of myself in terms of the game's story long before I even finished vol. 2 (although there were some odds and ends which I didn't spoil for I was too lazy to hunt for the scenes on Youtube). Way back when, when I spoiled myself of the ending of the series via Cubia's defeat, I was confused on one nagging factor. I figured if I played through the games completely I'd clear that confusion up. However, even after playing through the game and beating it finally...it's still there.

Now, we all know that Cubia is an anti-existence (as he was in the previous games). As for what he's the anti-existence of, from my understanding, he's the anti-existence of the epitaphs (which I'm pretty sure what was emphasized in the game), I'm assuming the fusion of the epitaphs (ie Skeith "devouring" the 7 and obtaining their data), Ovan's sacrifice to eliminate AIDA (via Rebirth activation), and Haseo obtaining the Xth Form (Thanks to Zelkova) all served as triggers that activated his awakening. Granted, if I'm mistaken feel free to correct me.

(Edit: Well I've been clarified as to what Cubia was the anti-existence of. Too bad it makes the ending much less sense to me.)

The nagging factor I referred to earlier is the fact that the cast were able to kill their anti-existence without sacrificing themselves (well, their characters). That obviously goes against the rule of anti-existence established in the previous games. So I'm confused as to how it was possible. I wouldn't be surprised if this is explained in the complete guide. Sadly, I don't have access to it so I'm unable to come up with any reasonable explanation other than something ridiculous like Aura suddenly deciding to erase the rules set upon the world based on the Epitaph of Twilight thanks to that black box.

I'm confused about that as well Musashi. IF Cubia was the anti-extisence of the Epitaphs then it is supposedly equally as powerful as Haseo was after devouring the 7 other avatars, i.e. his final avatar form. When fighting the Cubia core Haseo looks like he can't win until Ovan helps him, letting him destroy Cubia. Which seems wrong because that should have just made them an even match. My only guess is that maybe Cubia was slightly more vulnerable in the core so the Epitaphs all together had an advantage.

Ok, im working on finishing the Forest of Pain. Im slicing through enemies on floor 86 (almost done! *dances*) When i come across a monster called Rue Dibro, one i dont remember fighting in any random area. Is this guy immune to attacks or something?? Everytime i hit him it does no damage, and i straight up wailed on him for like 5 minutes straight and still 0. I spammed Beat Awakenings to get rid of him finally, but what the crap?? Oh, i married Pi and then watched the other endings on youtube so i wouldnt miss out :) And as of right now...190 hours played and my party of Haseo, Atoli, and Endrance are all at 150. They are the main ones i've used through most of the game. And Haseo has the Doppelganger equipment that makes him completely a bad@$$. Anyone who's beaten the Forest of Pain, should i be worried about the mega death beast that's at the end?

Thanks for the info. I switched to Demon Awakening and it took care of them in one shot. And it seemed i was worried over nothing about the "True" Cerunnos. Two beast awakenings and he was pwned.

WOOOOO !!!!! I finally beat the game after starting from scratch *Couldn't find Vol. 1 nor Vol. 2* but yeah I'd say it took be a couple hrs possibly totaling 2-3 days.

I just keep going around trying to level up and take out the Chaotic PK's, looking for weapons, amor, etc.

Although I wonder what it would be like if I could use my Vol. 3 clear data from the begining.

i think you CAN use your Vol. 3 clear data on Vol 1...but im not sure what it does. It probably starts you off at a higher level with better equipment.

Did you get Tabby? Yup =]
Did you get Natsume? Yes.
Did you clear the Forest of pain? No. Only the first 50 levels.
Who did you marry? Several people actually. I saved clear data 3 times and just watched several marriages before saving only one. I watched Tabby, Atoli, Natsume, and Pi I think. I saved the one on Tabby.
Was it as good as you expected? Definitely. Best in the series.
Well, I used up all of the files, but when I first beat the game, these were my stats:
Level 128 11/24/07 37:40:05
Later on I decided to keep playing and max out everything. I even have the Ryu books completed.
Level 150 7/12/08 62:22:23 All characters, most of the doppleganger weapons and MOST of the desktop accessories.
I also decided to do it again, but I converted. I'm almost done with it, I just have to defeat Cubia and then I've beaten it twice.. But anyway, here are those stats:
Level 132 07/24/08 <--- DID THAT IN 2 WEEKS! Lol. 34:36:28 Maxed out cheat level on DG X, all of the lost weapons are maxed, and um... Well not much else =]
