So I finished The Last Remnant today.

So, yeah. I knew how it was going to end, but it still hurt. Not that I started crying, like I did after the intro to FFXII, but. Now I really want some retarded sequel, something like FFX-2. A game that consists mostly of sidequests and Remnants coming back! Because seriously. Dave said he they would be alright, but their world's gotta suck right now. Just think about it. The Valeria Heart stabilized the ground around Athlum, preventing earthquakes. The Tao Tie held the desert around Balterossa at bay. Last Leaf contained the monster population in Crookfen. Royotia's Remnant (I forgot the name) prevented the volcano from erupting. And then there were countless others. And now they're all gone.

For the final battle I made three unions: one consisting of Torgal, Blocter and Emmy and two generic soldiers - my main damage dealing union. Torgal is the only one with a Weapon Art that comes up often, and Cerulean Rain spammage really was useful. Blocter mainly because of the Wonder Bangle in case there were status ailments. But he can dish out damage as well, and knows herbs. Emmy for damage and Remedies. My second union was David, Irina and three soldiers - my main healing squad. I know David doesn't know healing as a primary skillset, but he has herbs, Remedies and his Shards up to Moonlight, so. Furthermore he has more HP than all other Mystic units, can also dish out melee damage, has long-range special skills and is the only one who knows Arcana. Irina for her Remedies and lotions. Third squad was Rush with several soldiers - both backup healing and backup damage, in case the other was dead or there were no good commands showing up.

AND OF COURSE DAVID LEARNS REJUVENATING WATERS DURING THE FIGHT. After all that time I tried getting units to learn Arcana, David learns it during the final fight. Although it was really, really useful. And got my total of Arcana up to two, and David the only unit who knows them.

Castanea and Roeas weren't that challenging: I got Roeas down to critical HP within one round, and Castanea the round after that. In the third round both went down. The Conqueror was challenging, but I never felt like I was outmatched: he did good damage but nobody died (thanks, Dave!) Although he was a bitch when he suddenly started dodging everything. Seriously, he dodged two Hundred Flowers and a Cerulean Rain. And then Rush got a critical offence and one of the generic soldiers finished him off.

Ending cinematic was a;sf;jlfajkfj The song was surprisingly fitting, I thought. Well, the melody was. I don't know what the lyrics were.

SEQUEL HOOK, SEQUEL HOOK. Plz to be giving me more, Squeenix.

...I started a new game already. This time I'm going for a low BR playthrough, to see if I can even survive to the second disk.

games are too awesome for tags, by any other name would smell as gay, square enix owns my soul, wryyyyyyy, the last remnant
