ohh ok
Same.I played a couple of hours of Nox, got bored.
I'm actually kind of curious about your party composition, at least in Third Reich. I leaned pretty heavily on Manbot \ Man-O-War \ Microwave \ Alchemiss \ Law & Order in the first game. At least 2 of those 5 you lose access to for a good portion of the sequel, I remember. There are so many new characters in the 2nd game and the out-of-party characters don't get any XP. I don't know who to settle on. I'm tempted to use Tombstone because dominating enemies seems really strong, but he seems pretty weak outside of that.
I played through the game I dunno how many times but it was a lot (bad time in my life, thankee-FF for the save).
You can pretty much play any combination of heroes and it'll work.
IMO, the most OP were Manbot and a late-game Alchemiss. They just blew shit right out. I've always loved the Ant, though, and Minuteman's twiggy sidekick is actually more effective than he lets on. The flimsier characters make for more interesting gameplay, at least that was my experience. Though dropping AOE doom on everything in sight as those former two ubermensches is also fun in its own way.
Hell Baldur's Gate 2 even had a rape joke in Spellhold, the cowled wizards were commenting on how the new prisoner Imoen was attractive and the other said he would like to practice enchantments on her. All in an un-skippable cutscene.At least Bioware knew something about tasteful art direction not so long ago.

I liked Lad's solo missions, but his biggest issue seemed to be hitting fliers with only grenades or melee attacks, so he never became a regular on my team. Same goes for Ant. Plus a lot of the melee enemies you really didn't want to go toe-to-toe with. I could see him being viable once you git gud and rely on movement speed to physically dodge enemy attacks, but that's probably too much micromanagement for me.
Manbot is great, though. Thanks to his high survivability, a sure-fire tactic is to send him out first and let him engage all the enemies. Once all the enemies have targetted him, your back line is free to mow down all the Glanfathans. It's too bad you don't get access to him off the bat in FF2.
edit: Come to think of it, I really wish there was something like a BGTutu for Freedom Force 1. The engine improvements are pretty significant imo, but I like the 1st game a lot more.
It's not that Nox was bad, exactly, but the opening movie really was the most entertaining component of the game.behead those who insult nox
Just finished this (great humor) :
This one was good too :
Currently playing this along with other stuff : the look of the monsters is awesome.
Could you tell us the names of these instead of just calling them "this"?
