FELGEST'S PROFILE

Not being able to escape is really annoying.

You can toggle on/off random encounters if you do a side quest at the beginning of the game, so this shouldn't be a problem early in the game. (Currently only in the Spanish version)

Also, in older versions (for example the current English version), you can escape, but the success rate is low.

If you defeat this boss, you can escape any random battle with 100% success rate.

2.71 x 10^100 is 271 with 98 zeroes behind it, not 271. But I do agree that this is a pointlessly high number.

No, actually, I was just thinking that the decimals and the multipliers were some kind of flavor text. As if to exemplify that the ability is little more than an all-target instant death spell that hits the "KO" status regardless of what a character's resistance to the "KO" status is.

The boss really does that amount of damage. You can get strong enough to defeat this boss (although if you decide to fight it too early it'll be impossible). The game has almost zero grinding (and grinding is most of the time pointless), you get stronger as the plot demands.

I might be able to see a game display five digits for max hp/mp. Maybe six. But ten separate digits? Without looking like a complete mess? I'd like to see this.

I'd also like to understand this concept of no grinding. If the plot demands that the party be at a certain level of strength (as you clearly suggest), wouldn't the plot, therefore, require the player to grind? Error of type: nonsensical logic.


*Edit, nitpick: I think the value you're looking for is "E", which is the limit, as X approaches "infinity", of the value of (1+X^-1)^X. Or something like that. Well, that's what I was taught what the definition of "E" was, anyway.

When I mean that my game has almost no grinding, I mean the plot (boss experience) does the grinding for you (it's possible to beat most of the game without fighting any random encounter (if you have mastered the battle system), there is only one part when defeating random encounters is necessary, but these battles are almost inescapable).

Yes the number I'm looking for is 'e', which is Lim X->Infinity (1+X^-1)^X, which is the same as Lim X->0 (1+X)^(X^-1) (variable change). I prefer the limit when X approaches 0 because it's easier to visualize in a plot.

letters fighting numbers?

They are all numbers (most of these are real irrational numbers represented with a symbol).
