.hack//G.U.
0
So......
About a month ago I started playing .hack//Link out of curiosity. I knew of the existence of .hack (anime used to be on CartoonNetwork, friends play the games) but I've never really experienced it first hand. And to my surprise; the game is really good. It's only in Japanese and even though I only know so little Japanese, the game is enjoyable. But I didn't create this thread to talk about Link, so on to the point.
I've taken an interest into a previous installment in the series: .hack//G.U. A friend of mine has the 1st and 2nd volumes of the trilogy, so I'm going to end up borrowing them from him in a couple days. So, Fakku community, what are your takes on G.U.? Did you enjoy the volumes? Was there anything that should have been different? What did you like? Was it better/worse than the original four .hack volumes? I simply want to know what you guys think before I start the series. Throw some spoilers in there too, if you like; I'm not "spoiler-sensitive."

Oh boy, where to start...
The G.U. series is one of the reasons I bought a PS2 in the first place. Solid story, amazing character development, simple yet fun battle system, and the unique 3-keyword field generator. My only gripe with this game is Atoli's voice...Haseo begins as a stuck-up brat, still clinging onto his past, and you really get to see him change and evolve (pardon the pun) in so many ways (Xth form is so badass). The 3 games span an immense amount of time, and the story unfolds itself very nicely and at a very good pace. Sure, the visuals may not be top-notch, but it's a 2006 PS2 game. I say take the time to really take in what the game has to offer, and I guarantee you will not regret it.

Wow, thanks =D
Graphics I don't mind; story is what really drives me in a game. You make the game sound really good though, so I know I'm going to enjoy it. I watched a video on YouTube and I noticed that Haseo has the same voice actor as Sasuke; wonder how that happened lol.

Sorry, I usually check the masterlist before I start a thread; I don't know why I didnt't this time, however.
If it needs to be deleted, then I suppose I'll just add onto the already existing topic.

I used to own the games. I enjoyed the Dot Hack games, and even the anime at a time, but eventually my interests wained heavily, particularly in all of the anime incarnations. I always did enjoy the games, but I ended up selling the G.U. series when I was saving up money to get my 360 a few years ago. To this day I regret selling the three games as well as selling both Kingdom Hearts games.

I've beaten the series a few times, but I'm still trying to complete each of the three games 100%. The first two games, I beat each of those in one or two weeks, but the third one took me a month, considering some of the bosses were powerhouses. O_O Then again, I was busy with school when I got to play the third one, so it wasn't surprising that I took long on the third game in the series. Forst of Pain is a pain in the you-know-what. :S
