Oh my god, I love it. I took over 40 hours, because I tend to watch TV, and try to take my time. I honestly thought Alkaid was tougher than Endrance. Alkaid was cheated! I am outraged! Oh well...

There are games I like,
There are game series I love,
And, there are games series that can move you in such a way.
My list includes: Silent Hill, Kingdom Hearts, ...and Dot Hack.

I beat it in 4 days (got it on Wednesday and beat it Saturday, I used the "go to the area about 6 levels above me and kill all the monsters" method I used in the previous games (Note: I don't suggest it for this game unless you like using items to recover to stop from waiting to regain your SP). It's hard to believe that I managed level 50 so quickly, I'm hoping that they allow us to get to the level Haseo was at when he was the Terror of Death, or better yet, beyond that *starts drooling of the thought of being a PKK then stops since he's been PKKing the blacklist guys*

You should be. You reach level 100 in volume 2, so by all logic, you should hit 150 in volume 3, and Haseo was level 133 when he was the Terror of Death.

Finally beat the game and was satified. Though I lost the first time when I fought Tri-edge and almost lost when I was fighting the Azura Flame God. XD

However when I fought the final boss again at the terminal at Raven I didn't have as much trouble as I did when I fought him before I beat the game.

Same here! Probably because you are either used to it or you are higher level than you were when you fought him the first time.

i beat the game in 19 hours at lvl 43 and found it to be a little too easy, i dont know i guess i was expecting it to be harder for some reason, but it was still a great game, loved it.

i thought it was a very tough boss, even though i think En was harder with his charm attack and his glowieness.

I beat the game at 12 hours, 45 minutes, and 30 seconds, and I was Lvl. 50 when I beat it. I almost died battling AFG, but Tri-Edge was a breeze. He only damaged me 2 times, and that was only a little.

At level 50, I got En to half health with a single hit... I was surprised.

21:09:56 was my time. Well, that's not including the non-completed stuff. I'm gonna start again and see how I fair this time. Coincidentally, I'm not going to search for any new info on the other two volumes because sadly, my expectations right now is quite low.

At least I'll be getting lots of GP and items for the next installment. That reminds me, since I'm now in that Level Limit, where you can't exceed level 50, does any of the experience points get added once you start the next one, or is it a hopeless cause to keep defeating monsters?

I don't think there will be carry overs. You can complete the Book of
Ryu section for monsters though.

I beat the game around two days ago and just today I finally completed everything. Well now all I want to do is collect some of the Skill books since I lost Atoli before I could max out her weapon level. Which is kind of disappointing to me in a way.

There is a possibility that I will restart the game just for fun and try to beat it with lower levels to make it more difficult. For some reason it felt a to short but then again I might just be anxious waiting for the second volume.

I don't want to max out my levels because I like starting off kinda weak. But, chances are I'll restart the game some time before the 2nd one comes out... just because it kicks ass. So... what is the final unlockable movie about? I think it's number 28. I know it's the one after the Vol 2 preview movie...
