XIII Only brings me frustration and turmoil.

Was stuck on the second Barthandalus fight forever and eventually gave up. Q_Q The only part of JRPGs that I dislike is the ceaseless grind... but that's like 80% of it, sadly. :( I just can't sit in my chair doing the same thing for ten hours without advancing the story, but I love JRPGs, so conflict...

Anyways, for a tutorial fight, I think we went a little too overkill. I'd suggested rain of a million ice shards, but Black and I agreed that would be too much. She meant to freeze them for the others to finish off, but I guess I snap freezing a bunch of xenos weak to ice just annihilates them. Makes sense... lol.

At least it wasn't Enchanted Arms' tutorial fight, where you're up against the final boss and just die after the tutorial's done teaching you crap.
