In any RPG game, when someone says the solution is "grinding" then you know they just never bothered to think of any other solution besides grinding. There are people out there who has beaten this game wearing the no level up accessory or using any stat ups. RPGs has always been that way, whether it's dark souls or this little janky indie game, grind as an easy way out or get gud. But this game has that notorious love grind, so I'll give it a pass, lol.

I was gonna complain about that first part but you saved it with the second part lol. But even then I'd still argue that getting the materials to craft new gear + the money for it is absolutely a form of grinding. Just because you dont get any levels doesnt mean you cant grind. The force skill tree is there for a reason

@@TheKHC When I said stat ups, I meant the force thing. The only "grind" on the low level run is getting the sword that unlocks berserk and you stick with it for the entire game as everything else is too heavy for your -maiden- stat-less character.

@@PäiviYevheniyActually wrong in a LV5 No Grow, you get enough Agility with your base 25 points, weight reduction on the Libra and through accessories to use up to Chapter 7's weapons in the Main Script without to much issue, in postscript you can just ehance your agility infinitly through ehancing and board, but even without ehancing or boards the new accessorry plus the 2 additionnal trinket slot allows to use Chapter 8 weapons and even some of the optionnal bosses weapon. Ehancement and Board aside wielding heavy stuff is actually not as bad as people may think, you gotta avoid using normal attacks and focus on using special moves like Armor Slash, Jump Slash, Sky Sword and Air Blade which are less penalize by weight than normal attack, Tornado Slash is also incredibly usefull cause that move totally ignore weight so you can use it with any weapons and give a ton of i-frames, it sadly glitch at the moment in latest patches tough and you have to desactivate Aegis and Auto Rapid Fire to use it as it's intended to. As for dealing damage you rely on Berserk, but also rely on exploiting elemental weaknesses, with the corresponding elemental skills and Maxwell it triple your damage when you exploit the ennemy elemental weakness, in postscript you can also add more damage with the Badges type of accessory.

Uhm... With the "Love", you need 11 and you can get them all by grinding your relationships with the partner characters + one guaranteed the first time you beat a layer boss. Still grinding, but much less so.

That can't possibly be right. Like I said in the video, I ended up using exactly 14. I actually still have the notes on how I got them all. However, I've also seen people say that you need 15, others 13 and some 12. It's very inconsistent. Is it possible that the value is randomized or something?

@@TheKHC Considering it is tied to story cutscenes every time you give them to [Redacted], probably not. I did notice though that you can use them for something else, which would then of course crank up the amount you need. That being said, you actually only need 10 if you want the True Ending. The last is for the Glow Stick that [Redacted] tries to convince you is a light saber.

@@TheKHC IDK beat it like 2 weeks ago and I only needed the ones from grinding the companions plus the guaranteed drops from the layer bosses. Edit: Nevermind, my math just sucks - with two from every companion (including the one that only goes on "walks" with you) plus the four guaranteed drops... lol that's 14. But still designed in a way where there are very specific guaranteed drops. Which unfortunately are communicated... well, not at all if you don't pay attention to the pattern.

I enjoyed this review although I'm probably in the camp you mentioned at the end, the kind the game would resonate with. I have to wonder how difficulty selection factors into this, since I played on hard and apparently difficulty affects xp and force gain. Maybe there's a sweet spot somewhere in the higher difficultues since I felt all the problems with damage and enemy tankiness seemingly less strongly. If this game was dedicatedly balanced more towards the higher end of difficulty I wouldn't be surprised lol. I do agree that this game could be refined much more though. After playing through the dlc I can imagine there will be a sequel so maybe by then.

@@TheKHC I didnt watch the full video but I would guess you had issues with the hitboxes, grinding, backtracking and difficulty. for hitboxes, it is an issue for me but I dont really think about it. for grinding, the grinding is really low if you are not trying to 100% the game and are playing on a lower difficulty than hard. you can always go back and grind way quicker if you can beat enemies anyways so thats not really an issue if you are not trying to play on hard without grinding. for backtracking, I somewhat agree that on a first playthrough the backtracking is annoying. I personally have not had issues with it but again, I love this game and its a perfect game for me so I am not one to talk. for difficulty there are like 7 difficulties so idk.

1. awesome. thanks for just making assumptions instead of actually thinking abut what I said. That definitely isnt an extremely silly thing to do, so thanks for just assuming I complained about some things when I actively didnt and judging me accordingly. Very cool. 2.I never mentioned the hitboxes nor any backtracking, afaik the game doesn't even have backtracking. 3. I complained about the difficulty curve not just the difficulty in general 4. None of what you said properly applies to my complaints related to grinding I wholly understand wanting to defend your favorite game and whatnot, but with all due respect, making comments like this without having even seen the full video and just scimming through segments halfheartedly is extremely lame, but maybe thats just me

Sometimes I wonder why you play games you dislike this much. Your criticism is excellent and you justify every subjective point with objective facts, but I still have to wonder why you stuck with it. I guess we get to benefit from your pain. Also, I would say that Shadow of Memories does time travel right, mostly because it has branching paths and unhappy endings. Most time travel stories are garbage, one of the worst being the Star Trek: The Next Generation finale, "All Good Things...". I wish Hollywood would just let it go.

How many times have you seen a story where the wife just says, "I'm not in love with you anymore," or some other nonsense and then they just leave? It doesn't matter what you give or do. That sword could drop at any moment and leave you wondering what you did wrong or what you could have done better for the rest of your life. I hate to say it, but the simple answer is that people are unpredictable, especially in the long term. We've been married over 21 years, but that doesn't mean she couldn't leave tomorrow. My brother and I got married the same year and his second marriage is falling apart. Hope that gives you something to look forward to.
