Yep, she's supposed to be a lot less edgy. In the original she's more machine-like in her triggered mode.
A good example is this line; the original meaning was something more like "Now commencing the exterminiation of enemy forces." Originally, her title was specifically "The Angel of Extermination (天使の殲滅)" which was listed as that even in English text from Falcom. CF changed her title to "The Angel of Slaughter." She's also a lot less graphic about her threats in the original Japanese version.

I don't know why. I've posted about it on the forums and the CF cuck responded with a post saying "the change in the Enforcer titles were my ideas, and I'd like to write a blog post about it," but he never did. It's a poor translation of the meaning of her title and directly contradicts a lot of official material from Falcom with her title listed plainly in English as "The Angel of Extermination."

Kill yourself you stupid faggot or go play the fucking games in Japanese and see that I'm actually fucking correct because "slaughter" is entirely different in tone to "extermination" and is completely fitting for the intended meaning behind her dialogue as it relates to her character arc. There is a difference between a liberal translation and fucking rewriting something into something else with a meaning completely different from the original that goes against the character's arc.

Yeah I'm sure Falcom just accidentally characterized her in a machine-like and impersonal way in the original, it certainly wasn't intentional due to all the parallels between her and Pedro and the implication that she views herself as just a puppet or anything. That was all purely coincidence.
>they even got Varion's seal of approval, the guy who'd kill to fuck Renne
So would I, that doesn't magically validate my points. Are you going to actually post something to contradict me or continue using ad hominem and being a faggot? Please explain how making her character twice as edgy for no reason at all was a positive change. With your logic we should make Estelle a brooding emo tsundere because accurate translations are bad.

Because they hired an editor all-star who thinks he's a genius for rewriting and greatly altering the content of the games he's localizing. Did it with his own published games and did it with Second Chapter.
Not to mention it's thanks to that idiot the project stalled for so long. He did everything wrong and was late. I cringe everytime someone "thanks" him for "bringing" the game to us on twitter or videogame forums.
Thankfully there is no way he will ever be near this series again. He's back to publishing doujin games.

You're completely denying the fact that the choice is unfitting and detrimental to her characterization simply because you want to suck Carpe Fulgur's dick even though Xseed themseleves have talked about how Carpe Fulgur's script required a lot of reworking before they could get something that worked.
>because you are a conservative weeb whose only purpose in life is to make sure your weebshit doesn't get touched by westerners'filthy hands
Nice ad hominem
>I am sure you are also complaining that Renne doesn't refer to herself in third person in the TL when Britanny justified this choice in a completely satisfying way.
Really now, because I haven't mentioned that a single time and that's one of the changes they made that I actually really like after playing the games in English as I think it made the reveal of her backstory a lot more impactful. It's a perfect example of how to localize something properly; they had a solid reason for doing it, they explained their reasoning, and it made the game more enjoyable for English speakers and was a change that made sense due to the differences in cultures.

Meanwhile you're defending a choice that we dont' know the reasoning behind, that goes direclty against her characterization, and that served no purpose within the meaning other than to make her seem more edgy and violent than she originally was. On top of that, your only reasoning for this is "liberal localizations are automatically good."

According to him anyway.
He wasn't able to keep up with the pace of the project so he lied to XSEED for a long time until XSEED decided to part ways with them. What they gave them is a partly edited translation that was in the wrong fucking format. They spent a long ass time correcting this + reworking the script.

There are some hidden ones you might feel bad for skipping, namely those that involve saving people. Otherwise who gives a shit, there'll be other bracers who will clean up monsters on the road.

Nope, it's a device that's basically a cut-down Vita that functions like a home console. I guess it's called Playstation TV now. It can't run every Vita game, but I'm pretty sure both Celceta and Cold Steel are compatible with it. Do a bit of research to see if they are.

Well good fucking luck. The tutorial monster killed me in SC nightmare. That is after playing the entire first game.
I played through in hard and found the challenge decent. I also played through the Ys games in hard difficulty.

This reminds me of that old procedural crime drama where someone says a videogame console is "just a hard drive with games on it."
>>322226261
Nightmare isn't that balanced in SC, the first major boss in it is luck-based for example. And I don't mean that as in "le artificial difficulty," I mean even if you grind Shiny Poms to get to the soft level cap for the prologue you'll still lose if he doesn't waste turns or if he ever procs a status effect.

Nah. It wasn't until the Chapter 7 Renee battle that a fight gave me real trouble and that's because I went in without knowing that she would open with her S-Craft that can instantly kill people and she took out Estelle and Joshua right from the get-go.

Her significant dialogue ends after saving the capuas. After that point you can just ditch her without a worry. You can also talk to people in the ship with her in your party for some special dialogue.

What you need to worry about later in terms of dialogue is having the correct person in your party corresponding to the enforcer you fight later on.

Who else are you going to pick as a mage if S-crafts are what matters to you? You aren't going to be building Olivier or Schera as physical attackers so their S-crafts won't mean shit.

The only physical attackers that can keep up with death scream spam are Zane if the enemies are clustered or Agate with wild rage abuse, both of which aren't as consistent and general-use friendly as Kloe. Unless you mean against a single target of course, but in that case it doesn't matter who you have because you can win all 4v1s as long as you have earth guard/wall.

I did play it.

It took me a few times to finally get into it, but once I was able to give it my full attention (i.e. winter break from university), I fucking loved it.

SC is falling into a lot more cliches, though.
Especially the society and how they're all maximum edgy fucks.
And it's a lot more annoying running through the EXACT same areas again when you know it's meant to pad your play-time.
>>
>>322230380
Yeah, he shits all over Kloe, just like Agate and even Mueller who are all getting a craft or two off for every cast of death scream and not having to waste turns on EP charges
>>
>Play SC

They're not, though. Only Walter and Renne in the localization because CF made them way more edgy

>>322230501

>>
>>322230501
The most fun part is that you have to go through the same dungeons and areas three times in SC
>>
>>322230446
Agate needs two turns per wild rage->final break abuse, so that's hardly faster. I didn't use Mueller so I can't speak for him.

>having to use EP charges ever with EP cut 4 and maxed slots
So I'm guessing you never even tried death scream spam with a high ATS character.
>>
>>322230501
Yeah, Le Locle, the old schoolhouse, the hot springs, the docks, the altered space of the towers, and the entire Liber Ark are ripped straight from FC
>>
The problem with Kloe is that her high ATS stat is wasted because three water locks turns her into a white mage by default and healing spells aren't affected by ATS at all. Add that to her offensive S-Craft running off of her godawful STR for some reason, and she's just incredibly redundant. Even Lichtkreis, while being a handy panic button, is handily outclassed by Grail Sphere (although Kloe is available a lot more often than Kevin is)

Meanwhile you have Olivier who also has a single line and high ATS but also gets only a single Mirage lock which is retardedly easy to fulfill, in exchange for mediocre crafts which you won't mind when you're spamming Death Scream every encounter.
>>
>>322230183
in fc I used olivier and tita for the final dungeon because of their healing crafts
earth wall pretty much breaks that boss fight
>>
>>322230619
>So I'm guessing you never even tried death scream spam with a high ATS character.
Yeah and it does about 2000 damage against weak enemies, it can be impeded, it's slower than regular attacks +S-crafts, it can't break the turn order, casters are incredibly squishy, etc.

Arts spam is a horribly inefficient way to play the game.
>>
>>322230764
>earth wall pretty much breaks fc
ftfy
>>
>>322230672
Her water locks don't mean shit once you have the right quartz to give her death scream, which is literally the only AoE spell besides aerial that matters.
>>
>>322230824
It's also inefficient as DPS except in regular encounters which you could end easily with physical characters anyway (or end instantly with Dragon Dive)
>>
>>322230824
But then it just comes down to who you like more and my nigga Olivier is infinitely more likable than the cuck princess.

And it's easier to get Death Scream on him because he doesn't have to deal with 3 fucking water locks.
>>
>>322230770
>it does about 2000 damage against weak enemies
That's not high ATS m8. My Kloe has over 1000 ATS, resulting in 3k death screams to everything in the final boss fights, which I don't think anyone else can get due to the best +ATS equipment being female-only.

>Arts spam is a horribly inefficient way to play the game.
Not when all the enemies are spaced out to the point where only medium or large AoEs can target more than 2 at a time.
>>
>>322230770
Gladiator items + Death Scream is the fastest way to charge S-crafts I've found.
>>
>>322230957
He's also not a one-trick pony like Kloe who is useful for literally one thing (arts spam), he can act as support when you need him too.
>>322230983
Yeah sure, enjoy your normal fights ending slightly faster than someone who uses Zane or Mueller (but not Agate) and your boss fights being slow as shit.
>>
>>322213491

>>322230764
The boss is pretty much balanced around having earth wall, so it doesn't "break" so much as it solves it.

I'm pretty sure I didnt take any damage that entire fight, so yeah it breaks it

No but in boss fights Death Scream will be doing pretty shit damage. Even with high ATS Death Scream isn't going to break 1500 maximum damage and that's with Kloe maxed out on ATS (which means she'll die when anything touches her).

She was on a class of her own most of the game. That said, she had like half the speed that of Jorshua or even Estelle.

I have. I've tried 4 times to get into the game, I just can't. I want to like it, but I've never been able to and it pisses me off. I find the battle system really slow, and after playing like, 15 hours, the plot still hadnt really picked up.

Confirmed for not even bothering with mages. Again, my Kloe was dealing 3k death screams by the end of the game. I don't know why you keep saying she's squishy as well when I had her on 8k hp by the end of the game, and this was without a hp quartz. The only thing that could one shot her would be a boss' special attack but my buddy earth guard took care of that.

And I just couldn't be bothered refuelling CP with wild rage after every use to get better AoE dps than Kloe, who is consistently useful in every encounter. If anything you're the min/maxing faggot for putting up with that constant resource management.

Sure, against regular enemies that fold to S-crafts anyway.
> I don't know why you keep saying she's squishy as well when I had her on 8k hp by the end of the game, and this was without a hp quartz.
Oh wow, 8k HP and absolute garbage-tier defense. That's certainly better than a character with 13-15k and high defense.
>The only thing that could one shot her would be a boss' special attack but my buddy earth guard took care of that.
Or any two consecutive attacks from anything or one hit from the more powerful stuff in the game (and one hit from basically any S-craft).
So basically she's dying really easily unless you're on normal mode.
>>final boss was boss + 4 (I think) minions
>with action 5 and cast 2 Kloe sends out a death scream at a rate of about 1.5:1 joshua's turns

Compare to using Agate who deals 30k damage total with his S-craft off the bat instantly eliminating the minions without a charge time or any EP cost.
>And I just couldn't be bothered refuelling CP with wild rage after every use to get better AoE dps than Kloe, who is consistently useful in every encounter. If anything you're the min/maxing faggot for putting up with that constant resource management.

I'd rather put up with having to use a craft every turn just like I normally would than having to resurrect Kloe whenever a boss farts on her.

I don't understand how you can ever die with clock up ex and earth wall/guard. You would probably have Kevin in your party as well for the double guard.

>Or any two consecutive attacks from anything or one hit from the more powerful stuff in the game (and one hit from basically any S-craft).
>So basically she's dying really easily unless you're on normal mode.
So Kloe dies super easily on 8k full hp, but Agate reducing himself to piss all hp with wild rage abuse is totally sustainable throughout hard boss fights? Nice bias.

>>point out that Kloe is the absolute worst DPS
You're not even making sense considering Olivier has worse DPS than her as a mage due to not being able to have as high ATS. Olivier is in no way better than Kloe from a gameplay perspective, besides having a straight line orbment if you want some fancy support arts.
>>
>>322232710

>>
>>322233280
>I don't understand how you can ever die with clock up ex and earth wall/guard
By playing on hard mode where enemies are fast enough and use AOE often enough that earth wall won't do shit.
>So Kloe dies super easily on 8k full hp, but Agate reducing himself to piss all hp with wild rage abuse is totally sustainable throughout hard boss fights? Nice bias.Use your brain, you mongoloid. You use Wild Rage when you know you can afford to. Enemies aren't going to ask you if it's okay for them to murder the shit out of your boring waifu before they attack her.
>You're not even making sense considering Olivier has worse DPS than her as a mage due to not being able to have as high ATS.
I never said Olivier is better. He's more versatile, but he's more of a support than a DPS.
>Olivier is in no way better than Kloe from a gameplay perspective, besides having a straight line orbment if you want some fancy support arts.
Stop going off on an irrelevant tangent. You said you didn't use Olivier because he's weaker. Then you said you didn't use physical DPS because you don't min/max. Make up your mind.
