If Hitler dies you're doing it wrong~

I agree. Once you've got the battles down, it takes about five minutes of bashing on the enemies until the finally die.

Also, I found that generally when anyone dies, it's time to break out the FORFEIT.

The battle system is built on everyone relying on each other.

Yeah, mostly it was all about the stradegy. The only charictor you could live with, but is still damn useful, was Princess Lana. After a while she died in the Cube battle and I still beat him.

You basically have the same characters do the same thing every battle...I fail to see the strategy in that.

Though, I'll admit it was fun. I beat it the first time without any equipment...(the stupid thing wouldn't let me equip....I have no idea why).

But yeah, the battles reminded me a lot of Bliss's, except there were more characters, but less options.

Not too bad. But you get frustrated easily, especially because most of the enemies have buttloads of hitpoints,a nd one simple mistake and it's game over and you have to start your 20 minute Hitler judo chop again. That tediousness was the only part I didn't like.

Other then that, the battles were great. The story was midly entertaining (though it got a bit dull once the gimmic that it was HITLER and THANKSGIVING wore off)

People don't seem to realize that HEIL ACCUMULATES.

You can win most battles in 3-4 swoops.

Even so, I considered that but wasn't sure so I never wasted an extra turn to see. Thus, I got to the Administrative Four without using Fuhrer Rage or Heil more than once a piece and didn't really get too frustrated save one or two battles. I'm guessing things will be a lot easier now though. Razz

That DOES change everything. I beat the game easily last night knowing that. :/

The best part about all of this is that Feurer Rage doesn't get reset by "NO LOOKIE!!1 :I", and that it doubles/triples/quadruples the effects of HEIL!!
