OK, so I beat "The Last Story" in a day and a half in 20 hours playing on and off. In a nut shell the game was well done, fast paced in telling each of the 44 chapters, the visuals I think are some of the best on the Wii and shows what the system has to offer. One thing I like is how the game just throws in there and you have no idea what the heck's going on, The story has the same effect, it grabs a hold and never lets go and when its finally over, "Your breathing deeply from all the excitement and tension and blown away by just how much happen from chapter 1 to 44" than you let out a sigh of relief and sadness asking your self "Did Calista and Zael get married? and were where they going after the credits rolled?" the game definitely has some questions to answer for but all in does a great job sealing the deal and closing the story.It just goes to show that Hironobu Sakaguchi still has what it takes to make great stories, great game play and to package it all up in a nicely well balanced game.

The only minor complaints I would have are the constant frame lags that appear mainly in the castle and city. I do/ don't like the fact that for the most part you don't really need to upgrade your equipment most of if not everything I obtained in game was dropped by boss's and enemies in game, not once did I find my self using the upgrade stores, though I'm sure it would have helped I had no need for it, part of me thinks that maybe the game was to well balanced for its own good? The other neat thing I found myself enjoying was the visuals of all the in game gear when equipped, I mean put on Leather Armour or Heavy Armour and you see it in game and during any of the cut scenes, it's something you don't see to often in JRPG'S due to the amount of time it takes to program it in, I guess.

Well there it is my take on the game not to many spoilers but I for one would love to see him touch down on another Last Story game and continue the story of Zale and Calista, maybe see them finally get married and have kids and make Zael the Count of Lazulis Island/ Kingdom? who's with me? lol.

I "HIGHLY RECOMMENDED" This title and a must buy for wii owners when it comes shore side later this year!

thanks for your attention.
maybe i need 1 hit kill cheat.... need long time to beat the boss, different with last story, all the gather and combo will kill the boss faster.
Don't cheat.

It's been awhile, but if you are referring to the boss on Spiral Valley (it's the big brown platform in the center of Upper Bionis Leg), I suggest you give Reyn an Aggro Up gem so he will draw the boss's attention away while you attack. Level up Monado Shield and Sharla's healing arts if you need to.

@centriz

I agree, a really top top game. Totally different from xenoblade in a good way. Its good that they are both different in delivery of the gameplay etc.
Visuals are brilliant, mind i still use a CRT.
Vary varied and detailed in places. High production values on this game no doubt.

for me 9/10

Question: did nintendo give funding for this game and hironobu sakaguchi and his team develop the story. Or did he and his team fund it but got nintendo to co distribute it?

I heard they have (nintendo) registered the Last world ;)

I liked the game's pacing, short but sweet and I actually missed a lot more my first time around than I thought (there are a lot of hidden chapters in the epilogue chapter), as for the upgrades. they are a bit "lacking", but they do make the ultimate dragon armor look so awesomely ridiculous especially during cutscenes :D

    when the xbox series was launching, phil spencer or someone else there did say that targeting smaller hands improved the ergonomics of the controller for more people.
  • D @ DemiV:
    that's phil, though. the guy is always targeting small hands,
    can't go within 500ft of a school.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @SylverReZ, The 2ds is definitely the one people find the most comfortable lol. People with big hands love it and it looks like people with smaller hands love it too. I find holding the normal DS/3DS consoles more comfortable and I prefer their build quality. The 2DS looks smaller when you hold it because you hold onto the whole console, not just the bottom, but it's actually the right size. The problem I have with it though is that the screen is a bit too small and holding the entire console while looking at a just few small screens makes it a bit less practical imho.

    @DemiV, Huh, he definitely made a good job, it's the perfect controller to hold for my hands. A bit on the heavier side though.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Wouldn't a ps controller be more comfortable for small hands
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @K3Nv3, Hmm, it would be but the thumb stick is way too far and I have to stretch my finger to reach it and it's a bit uncomfortable
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Xbox stick is in the perfect location though and this basically sold be the entire controller
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Compared to the og Duke controller
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Wait I was talking about modern controllers lol, never tried the og but I'm curious to see how big it'd be in my hands lol
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Even DS4 shouldn't be that far apart
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Original PS controller (both with or without sticks) is absolute perfection
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    I don't think I'll ever find a more perfect controller to hold
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    DS3 triggers were garbage
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Never had a PS3
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Doesn't look much different from the PS2 controller at least in pictures
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Aside from a few buttons
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    They had a spring back function that always felt too slippery

    yeah it was a pretty straight forward iteration on the dualshock 1/2 compared to 4 and the dualsense.
  • D @ DemiV:
    aside from the sixaxis motion and aforementioned queer triggers.
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    Nintendo is discontinuing Gold Points on March 24th, 2025
