Big name, big game and big fan following...it's bound to be a game widely discussed!
As we seem to have a thread for most of the big games, I thought we may as well have one for this behemoth of a game - so if you have any ideas, favourite ways to play the game or just want to pass comment on what already appears to be a fantastic and absorbing game - please post here.
If you want to discuss the plot or other aspects of the storyline - remember to use the
first off...I'm liking the combat system now - no definite turn based combat? Action seems to be constant even though you have to select your moves. Brilliant?

Yeah, I've sold all those chips. I'm not sure I understand how this whole upgrade system works.
Do some items increase your exp gain? Or does that just come with general exp increase?

In my defense, he was pretty much beaten and i got hit with a big attack while not healing, ain't tried since. I am sure he will go down this time!

See Emmie, no one else struggled..... haha I kid I kid :D
Dis, did you check through your inventory. I was pretty much the same as you, no gil up until I realised they could be sold. After that I remember running with about 90k with nothing to spend it on.
[SPOILER]
I wish I could say that now. Takes about 1.2million gil to get the ultimate tier weapons to level 100/STAR :(
That's exlcuding the cost to get it from Tier 1 Level 1 to Tier 2 STAR as well :S

Yeah, pretty much none of it was main story based so that's something?

On the upside, I'm thoroughly enjoying the game now :)

I'm not kidding, it's thanks to the end of chapter 10:
If you really only have that much gil I'd be suprised :D
One thing a lot of people didn't realise first time round is that there are certain components that drop that sell for high amounts and are useless as upgrade tools.
Look through your component list and look for anything that says "Sells for a premium" at the end. Things like Credit or Incentive Chips etc. Sure you will have some.
You don't really need the gil that much, or upgraded gear, until well into Chapter 11 if at all really.
