Part 1 Games and More

GAMES and MORE

What’s the topic for today?

It’s just about the relation points and fan-made pairings.

Why do I need to discuss this?

It’s simple. I want to say that these affect the game as much as the story goes for the game.

Pairing wars are on going for some RPGs but others have been resolved due to remakes and spin-offs of the game itself.

I want to share some games that have pairings. They basically have no connection into the story unless it’s a cut scene or an FMV of that particular game. This makes a good part of the game itself. I’m a fan of some of the pairings in some RPGs. I’m usually the ones out of the norm or I prefer the possible non-canon pairings that are present in the game. I just hate boy to boy and girl to girl pairings.

Final Fantasy VII (Includes SPOILERS)

Date Scene in Gold Saucer

I don’t specifically know how the counter for the relationship points count here but there are specific ways to get the one who you want Cloud to be with. You can have Aerith, Yuffie or Tifa to be with Cloud on the date scene. Each person has some default points at the start of the game but one can increase depending on the decisions you make as the game progresses.

For Aerith: You don’t need to do something special because this is the default one to get in the date scene. Buy the flower for 1G only and don’t talk to Tifa about being brave while imprisoned in the Shinra Building or else it leads to favoring Tifa more. Cloud gets to be with Tifa for most of the game. It was easy getting her to have a date.

For Tifa: Choose the first option when Tifa asks about you being brave or something in the Shinra Building. DON’T buy a flower from Aerith and talk to her in the building a lot while imprisoned to get her points up. I don’t know if battling with Tifa and Barret really matters in this situation. It is also easy but it takes some time to reinforce the points to overcome Aerith’s default count.

For Yuffie: You have to do a lot of events to overcome Tifa and Aeris points because she has the lowest of the three in points. It’s hard because you HAVE to recruit her because she’s just an optional character just like Vincent and since the date is in Disc 1, it is best to recruit her in the forest near Junon and Fort Condor. You need a lot of patience for her to show up. I did recruit her a few missions before Aerith dies.

Ending
The game ends with Meteor devastating most of Midgar but was put to a stop by Holy and the Lifestream itself.

Tales of Symphonia Part 1 Characters

I will talk about the one in GameCube and Wii

Tales of Symphonia and Tales of Symphonia : Dawn of the New World

What's the difference?

Characters:

from http://aselia.wikia.com/wiki/Tales_of_Symphonia

Lloyd Irving: Once but a simple country boy, Lloyd Irving is thrust out into a journey of epic proportions following a brutal attack on his village. The Chosen of Mana is in fact one of his dearest friends, and after an exile from his home, Lloyd Irving joins her on her Journey of Regeneration. Although the young warrior himself plays no part in the prophecy as such, he is still a strong optimist and a fair leader.

Colette Brunel: The Chosen of Mana from the land of Sylvarant who's destiny it is to climb the Tower of Salvation and restore life to the planet. For the sake of this cause, she would willingly give up her own life.

Kratos Aurion: A sword-wielding mercenary whom the Church of Martel hire in order to protect the Chosen on her Journey of Regeneration. At the beginning of the game not much is known about this mysterious character, but as things progress, more and more of his history becomes clear. He's certainly not the man he led the Chosen to believe him to be be, but does he even know who he is himself?

Genis Sage: A childhood friend of Lloyd Irving who grew up studying magic in the small countryside village of Iselia. Being something of a prodigy with his powers, this young boy becomes an invaluable member of the Chosen's group through their Journey of Regeneration.

Raine Sage: A skilled healer who once worked as a teacher in Iselia before leaving with Colette on the Journey of Regeneration. She claims to be an orphaned elf who carved out a life in the land of Sylvarant.

Regal Bryant: A convict bound with shackles for the heinous crime he committed long ago. This man owes no real debt to society for what he did. The only problem is forgiving himself.

Sheena Fujibayashi: A female ninja from the Tethe'allan colony of Mizuho who was sent to Sylvarant to assassinate Colette. However, as she travels through that faraway land, she begins to get a feeling for its people and their plight... Could she ever live with herself if she killed the Chosen and doomed them all?

Presea Combatir: A young girl who had her life drained out of her by the special Exsphere attached to her chest. She's quite taciturn in demeanor, and only wants to go home to Ozette.

Zelos Wilder: The Chosen of Mana from the land of Tethe'alla. Raised as an aristocrat, his view of the world is clouded and he's blind to the discrimation that's going on all around him. An irrepressible flirt, he takes every chance he can get to hit on all female party members, much to the annoyance of the party. Still, he's a good person at heart.

Mithos Yggdrasill: A 4000 year-old war hero, and also a young boy... A strong optimist with praised ideals, and a ruthless oppressor. A powerful angel who would save mankind, and a genocidal maniac. The leader of Cruxis. What is his goal?
