MKID232'S PROFILE

One game I think that did it sort of right was Legend of Dragoon. The unbeatable battle was evident by the fact that you couldn't hit the boss, and he would say something like "missed me" or something to that effect. After a few turns, he'd just basically get bored and leave.

It's not perfect, but it is better than blindsiding you.

Now we've all come across this one: you get to a certain part of the game when suddenly you are attacked by a monster of some sort. You enter the battle phase, use your strongest attack or magic, and find that you did...0 damage. Then the monster does an uber attack that does 9999 damage, and you die. Turns out that was a battle you were meant to lose for story purposes.

Now I ask you: Have you ever considered making a battle like this in one of your games, or have already done so? If so, what was the motive behind it? What does the unbeatable battle have over having your characters lose in a cutscene?

Hopefully there will BE a next one, though I'm not holding my breath. Shame, really. This game was really fun and innovative, but it could've done better.

Congratulations! You are WIP!

You're the kingpin, the head honcho, the Sapa Inca... "Retirement" is just a facade.


Um...I don't think this will make anyone very happy with me.
