We last left off where Seth decided to go to Valor on his black dragon Erath. And when he got there...And if anyone forgot the story, Kyan found his long lost friend Seth on Valor, and his black dragon Erath. Kyan is a mamkute that can still use swords as well as dragon stone attack.
Welcome to BEHG. We hope you enjoy your trip through our cesspool of hatred and lies.

If most people had lots of responsible sex without social fear, then they'd probably lose interest cause it's not that great. Or maybe everyone would just end up awesome at it.

I never played the game, but the way you control characters during battles sounds highly lame to me. I will probably try it someday, though not today because lol spore creature creator

Played game more. it's friggin raaad

story is meh ok, it's enough to make me interested
music is kind of lame jpop but gets you going with 'ah fuck i can't stop listening fuck you japan'
graphics are average, some parts are animated, most cutscenes are reminiscent of disgaea where you have a couple of dudes talking and more dudes come along and talk and the characters kind of move and sound effects and radaradaradaradradraetcetc you know what i'm talking about

battling is mad cool, i dunno why but it reminds me of megaman battle network and i keep calling the Pins battlechips for some reason because of that but whatever

alright, first of all there are no random encounters. this is a good thing. Because you can fight all the fuck you want when you want to, and avoid it when you don't. to fight enemies, you press an icon in the bottom right hand corner (the main character's Player Pin, which signifies that he's playing the reaper's game [you just lost])

that's called scanning. when you scan, a little blue light encompasses the screen. people that you see walking around will have a bubble thing above their head and you can read what they're thinking about so that's kind of nice, and the enemies, called Noise, are shown as red floating icons. There are different icons, each having different groups of enemies in them. for example a large icon would be filled with tougher foes. etc etc.

to fight a battle, touch an enemy's icon. after you get to a certain point (kind of early actually) you can touch multiple icons in succession to fight the enemies one after another without a break, which increases the drop rate of items and increases EXP earned and PP earned (i'll say more about that later)

in addition to fighting multiple enemies at the same time, you can decrease the amount of health you start with at a battle to increase drop rate further.

fighting at max health has your drop rate at 1. Decreasing it in intervals of 50 raises the drop rate by one. this is really useful because if you don't fucking suck at the actual fighting you can have a high drop rate of items and shit and still win fights with that handicap on your HP.

so now to the ACTUAL FIGHTING

You've got your main character on the bottom (his name is neku by the way, this is a jrpg you know) and his partner on top screen. You control, Neku with your stylus, touch him and direct him with your stylus etc. he fights with Pins, which allow him to use their Psychs, which are like magic or some shit. The first pin you get has a Pyrokinesis psyche, which means you make fire with it. Using it requires you to hold your stylus at an empty place on the battlefield (or on an enemy, whatever works) to make flames appear. drag your stylus and flames continue to go on for the duration of the pin's ability to create it. after you've exhausted its fire, it takes a while for the pin to reboot (for most pins it's rather quick, 2-3 seconds while i have pins that require 10 seconds to reboot) but then you can use it again. a favorite early pin of mine was the Slasher pin, which lets you use the Shockwave Psych. With this one you slash the stylus across enemies to have neku attack them. by continuously attacking with your pins, you get combos, and getting certain benchmarks gives you a special point at the end of your battle, which isn't really anything special, just an addition to your PP multiplyer. pp is like xp for your pins, they level up like you do. sometimes pins evolve. pins are kind of like pokemon.

btw, the amount of pins you can have with you in battle at one time is dependent upon how many slot expansions you have, up to 6 can be used, but i've only just recently got my fifth one. you start with like one or two, soon get third. i can't remember when you get them though.

right now for the top screen.

you control your partner with the dpad. this is kind of hard so you can have it set to auto play if you want. basically your partner is in the center of the screen and enemies are to their left or right. tap the left direction button to attack left, opposite goes right. after you tap the button a sort of map appears that i can't explain so it's something like this

Code:
 

 ^>>>>N
>>>>O
 V>U

something like that i guess

you tap the direction of the pad to attack. so to get to the U you'd be like RIGHT DOWN RIGHT RIGHT LOL. the point of the symbols is with the Fusion Attack system. for Shiki, your first partner, at the top of the top screen are a few cards flipped face down. What you do is attack and get to one of the symbols in your attack map. if the symbol you get is one of the cards, it's flipped. if you get all three you get a big pin on the top right corner of the bottom screen that allows you to do a fusion attack if you tap it. fusion attacks hit all enemies on the screen and heal your characters a bit.

btw, hit points are shared. the HP bar is one long bar on the right side of the screen. top screen is damaged, it drains from the top, bottom screen damaged, bottom is drained. if the hp bar is dead you are too.

this is too long to be posted from fast reply, lol

Yay, maths! >_>

Honestly though, the control scheme makes it sound like they were trying for originality, so they put an unnecessary gimmick on the game.
