[QUOTE="GreySeal9"][QUOTE="TigerSuperman"] I actually can't tell if your trolling me on not based on your random comment in my plat-former thread, but it's clear you have no idea what you're talking about. The crap stats you gain are that, crap, and you will have to run around fighting things like Komodo's and such to actually get beneficial increases to your stats. Especially since almost every area you fight in gives the same stat increases anyway. You're also going to need stat boosts for every recruited character, and the further in the game you go the more true this is. Sure there is a limit per star level but considering how the game gives out crap stat increases per battle, you're going to need to "grind" to get beneficial stats. Sure you don't have to grind every character, but the ones you use often you're going to spend time giving them stat increases, and the further you go or the higher you go the more time it consumes, The whole game has an emphasis on grinding, it's just a different way of doing it, and it until later does not consume as much time.TigerSuperman
Wrong. The game only gives out stat bonuses a few times after a star level, so you can't actually get more beneficial stats than what the game gives you through normal encounters unless you seek out optional bosses to gain more star levels than what you get on the normal path. Basically, the game level caps you after a few stat bonuses, and they don't give out more until the next star level. As you should know, grinding involves fighting lots of enemies over and over again. If the game only gives you a few stat bonuses and you decide to stop fighting enemies after the stat bonuses dry up, you are not grinding. In essence, you don't have to grind.
Quite simply, you are wrong, and now you are trying to hide that you are wrong with this "it's just a different way of doing it" bullsh!t. Protip: actually play games or have knowlege about them before trying to critique them.
The further you go the more time consuming it takes for random encounters to max out your stats considering the stat increases are VERY LOW in the game. You are going to want to increase your stats to have good characters, so yes you are grinding. Heck protip: don't be a fanboy You are going around getting stat bonuses which get more and more time consuming as you go up in star levels. Random video time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LJK3T3abNk 5:14, and example of horrible stats given in the game, you are going to go around grinding to get your stats up period. This isn't 1997 grinding has not been exclusive to experience since the Xbox came out. Yes there is a limit, but that limit takes more time to get to and you will need those status increases because the game craps on you for it. Heck, clearly you have no idea how a game you "played" even works.Thanks for the pointless YouTube video. You went through alot of effort to make no point. :lol:
You should probably stop arguing for the sake of arguing because what you're saying is simply false.
After each star level, you get a very limited amount of stat bonuses, so a very limited amount of enemies are actually going to raise your stats until the next star level, which are acquired from beating bosses.
I never said grinding is only exclusive to experience, but grinding clearly involves doing something over and over again. In Chrono Cross, you don't have to fighting enemies over and over again and doing so is not encouraged due to the level cap.
From Wikipedia:
However, no system of experience points exists; after four or five upgrades, statistics remain static until players defeat a boss. This adds a star to a running count shown on the status screen, which allows for another few rounds of statistical increases.Wikipedia
Link.
If you consider about four or five stat upgrades grinding, then you clearly have no perspective on what grinding is. :lol:
Again, either being intelligent and well balanced enough to stop arguing a stupid point after it's been proven wrong or simply knowing what you're talking about will serve you well because right now you sound extremely stupid and ignorant. ;)
