how in some game/tv sequels, like say-- pokemon, ash has been EVERYWHERE but his pikachu is still average strength compared to like lvl 20 pokemons
i hope (if it happens) that in legaia 3, you dont start off at level 1..... after being at level 50 in the first game... its like:
"why the the the the the would i play this game all-over again after being so freaking powerful"
it might just be me because i hate re-do's but its annoying :evil:

Yeah, I can see the annoyance you could find in that :D

Games that read old save data fix that though I guess. But if you don't have save data... :|

Then you're screw. but one thing i dont like about those games is that it just seems like everything's level is super high because they expect your level to be high

maybe they should just give them some of the abilities they expect you/force you to have/get in the first game, or maybe approx. a level you'd be.

they could survey how far everyone got and just average it out too. or they could cop out and make some stupid reason that they'd be low level

I hate that even more, starting out completely awesome and then being nothing and trying to climb your way out of the the the the sucks.

They do it that way because some people start games on a sequel rather than one of the originals. Can you honestly tell me that all of you played final fantasy 1 before ANY of the others? Perhaps you played fallout 1 before fallout 3 or vegas? A new game will always start at level 1 when it comes to RPG's just because it makes the game a lot more fun in the end... Leaves challenges to the game for players.

Well actually K that's not true just play the .Hack series. And also Final Fantasy games aren't really sequels. 1 has virtually nothing to do with 2 or 3. Just like the relationship between Legaia one and two
