I was going to start one but I'm probably not going to play it until next week so I thought I'd do it then

Joei · Post by **Joei** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 9:44 am

I'm not sure I even liked the original VP...

The item names were different.

My favourite bit of VP was the voices.
Unless thsi game has American voice acting I can laugh at, I probably won't rate it

whee

i hope they took out those nonsense 'treasure caves' from VP1.. remmeber the ones where you fall down this big chasm and you either stick to your left or right side to enter a room that usually contains an empty room(or the occasional treasure chest)? half the time i would fall down and leave empty handed

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Tue Jun 27, 2006 10:48 am

We're playing it now

First impression: Shiny FMV

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Tue Jun 27, 2006 12:20 pm

FMVs!!!

TEH INNOVATIVE!

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Tue Jun 27, 2006 5:59 pm

There's quite a lot of it at the start of the game.

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Tue Jun 27, 2006 6:28 pm

fmvs are so 1995

The way it is totally 3D but only lets you move left/right/down or up out onto the next screen is a bit annoying.

Etch · Post by **Etch** » Sun Jul 09, 2006 6:47 pm

So anyways, my connection finally worked correctly and I was able to watch the Youtube footage. The actual attack system looks pretty similar to the original but, add strategical movement elements when it comes to fighting bosses. (Moving behind the enemy to avoid attacks.

This is probably either necessary because the enemies hit hard and you cant survive much, or its just a way to avoid having to heal after every single fight. Thats just my thinking. Not saying its anyone elses....

hey i really hope this game isn't good so i don't have to drop $ on it

Could Anybody explain me the meaning of Valkyrie Profile's motto :
Destinies mend rifts in time as man etches fate anew ?

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Jan 08, 2007 4:32 pm

It's a load of drivvel, and it means SPOILERS!

Err... hm, I've only played VP a little, but I'd say...
It's about people fixing stuff that went wrong:
- to mend = to fix/to repair
- rift = fissure/break
- to etch = to carve/to engrave
Here, by "stuff" I mean events, actions, situations, life (destiny)... It's about the power that people (man) have to change (anew => a 2nd chance) the course of fate. Eventually, it heals (mend), but it's a somewhat violent process (etch).

I guess it has to do with the fact the Valkyrie fights along with dead people who are indeed given a 2nd chance, in a way. I've only played the beginning of the game, tbh, but clearly the goal of the first dead guy in your team is initially to solve problems left unresolved after his death.
[spoiler]Some lord's daughter getting abducted, or something like that, if I remember well? Not that the girl doesn't die eventually, but... well, nice try

[/spoiler]
I'm not sure about the time thing. My guess is that it probably refers to an additional plot twist, as Lenneth, the main character, seems to have quite a mysterious past (present/future?) [spoiler]like, she's somehow related to the dead girl named Platina, briefly featured in the intro of the game. And by related, I mean probably some reincarnation or avatar stuff. We're talking about god-like people dwelling in the spirit world here, after all...[/spoiler]

... And if you wonder how come I know all this even though I admit I've played the game for roughly 30 minutes only, obviously the answer is [spoiler]I happen to be a Valkyrie myself

[/spoiler]

Even Valkyrie know how to take time in the middle of battle for a spot of tea!

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Jan 08, 2007 7:33 pm

No Alice, it means ICICLE DISASTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Chrono_Misjudged · Post by **Chrono_Misjudged** » Tue Jan 09, 2007 1:59 pm

I feel touched by the intro story of Platina and Lucio, What a romantic and sad story! Changing the subject, Do Anyone Know an URL adress on internet where I can find V.P. 2 Silmeria's script (dialogue)?

This is urgent for me!!!

Pfft. Everything works out fine if you get the A ending on VP1.

Did I find a bug on Valkyrie Profile 2?

I ask this question because of I discovered that in 'Surts Volcano Caverns' there's a sealstone that it doesn't work, it's 'LifeForce Blessing' Sealstone, or something like this, which increases 200% the effect of healing items or spells, I put this on a dais, but I got surprised when I realized that in battles the items or spells still remain recovering the same amount of health points. Is this a game bug or an error of myself?

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 9:54 pm

Joei said you're not supposed to use the item like that (but he can't be arsed to reply to this thread

).

Chrono_Misjudged · Post by **Chrono_Misjudged** » Tue Feb 06, 2007 11:11 am

Haaaahaaaaa!!! This Fools are a Joke!!!

Changing the subject, Is there a trick in the game to reach high places with photons? I mean, althouhg I'm able to launch photons and use them to freeze enemies like birds, most of the times, I can't or is very difficult to me, to reach higher places. Now, I'm in 'Forest of the Spirits' and is impossible for me to reach one chest on a branch tree although is after Heimdall began to chase Rufus and Alicia and now there's a bird (it flies very low) instead an elf near the chest. In spite of there are two monsters (one is a bird) to stop with the photons, is impossible for me reach that cheat.

By the way, Don't you notice that probably exists a love affair between Alicia and Rufus? I think it because of the events happened in 'The forest of Spirits', They seem very close each other.

I don't think I'm going to bother playing through VP2

I saw Joei playing it, and it seems mostly just tedious

Chrono_Misjudged · Post by **Chrono_Misjudged** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 10:00 am

I think its plot is interesting, although it seems to be totally the contrary that Lenneth. Oh my god! How can be these games so different being the same game but other sequel!!!
