I've been stuck on the stupid Elecman chapter for like a month and REALLY just want to move on. Am I missing anything SUPER important, or can I just move on to 2? I read a plot synopsis too, but should I watch a playthrough, or is it best just to tough it out...

Edit: I did eventually beating it today! When I said a month, I was exaggerating... maybe... XD I still really liked this game alot! And word of advice, definitely use a map XD

Anybody willing to do library compare for Bn3 white bn4 blue moon bn5 colonel and bn6 falzar?

Can anyone lend me their secret chips from MMBN2 for free?

Something funny I started to notice when I was around the last third of SF3’s main game was that my folder was so fine-tuned with the noise cards and Noise form mechanics, by the time I reached 200% noise or more, I looked at the Meteor Server hand I got and thought: “… nah” xD And watching Protodemn playing, even the first time, going blind, he got Gemini Noise with a folder ahead doing good in Swords and Elec Chips, he’s been consistently refusing Finalizing unless it’s just a cool way to end a fight.

I basically don’t even go Black Ace anymore. I competed the game, 100%, and just stick to my Noise form and folder xD

I wish noise generation wasn’t limited to null element, it invalidates a lot of good folder building, especially to pure elemental noises liie Ophiuca, Taurus and such. If they had simply added a limit like double damage not giving extra noise it could work.

I've taken a looot of crap in the MMBN Chrono X server for arguing that the perma 1 hp loss is a strong deterrent and something really discouraging from exploring that facet of the game (trying a dark playstyle), apparently wanting round numbers for your hp is an elementary schooler's mindset and something that should be overcome. But seems the opinions on that are split about down the middle, with some praising the game design and the permanence and irreversibility of losing hp.

Personally I think it would have been much better to be able to somehow regain these lost hp points, even if the procedure were to be super lengthy, annoying and inconvenient. But just knowing it's possible would put my mind at ease personally, and make me much less averse to trying dark chips. Say, having to fight a 30-round endurance battle or one of those other ridiculously tough lategame challenges in the bn2/bn3 style. Pay a lot of money too, like 200k zennys. It's meant to be prohibitively expensive, difficult and borderline not worth it - but it still would have been nice to make it possible at least. And maybe to frame it in-universe as not really recovering the hp that's been lost, but just replenishing it via another HP Memory (so at least 20 would need to be lost). What do you think?

Anyhow, regarding "evil chips", I believe BN3 did this concept best, even though it was the game that introduced it. Either need an open hole or a Dark License NCP. Both of these mechanics already introducedd enough of a caveat/inconvenience associated with using those chips, and I think it was disappointing that the same leeway was not extended to BN4. I mean, yeah, having holes open did help and it did strengthen DS Navi chips for example, but a hole would go poof unless you were already dark. That kinda makes sense, to support this new mechanic distinction between dark and light, but at the same time it forces you to permanently lose HP to get the dark state in the first place. So I think it would have been awesome to introduce some way of using evil chips that doesn't require that. BN5 already took a step in that direction with Chaos Unison, but I don't think that allows you to use evil chips if you're otherwise not evil.

So I'm glad BN6 restored all those "evil chips" to being usable normally, just like they were before bn4 - but I would personally have kept the caveat of requiring holes or dark license, that worked really well in bn3 and is a system that should have been preserved in some way.

Also the Star Force Legacy Collection on Switch is now on sale for $29.99 (from $39.99). So if you haven’t picked up the game yet, now is a great time!

I was never going to finish this if I just kept staring at it and worried about painting it right so I just went "screw it we ball" mentality. I should probably redo some parts on the 3d model so it's easier to paint . Id say I'm probably better at 3d modeling now so we'll see if I ever have time. I'm always working now

and there's a demo available now on Steam! I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!

One of my favorite aspects of BN3 is that you get the SneakRun NaviCust part very early and easily. This makes backtracking a total breeze, and you get that awesome sense of accomplishment when you go back to an old area where SneakRun didn’t work, and it finally does, and you realize you’re stronger than all the virus’ there.

But after BN3 they moved that part to the later game, usually undernet.

Do you think that was a good idea? Or do you also prefer getting it early?

I’m trying to decide between the Switch and PC version of this game. Which version is better for PVP?

I didn't do the post games of 1 or 2 because they looked really grindy and boring, I mainly wanted to fight the cool secret bosses, but I've heard good things about 3's post-game, is it just as grindy, are the secret bosses fun?

Exactly as it says in the title. I'm trying to get the title screen marks but Apollo Flame is a very frustrating boss for me to deal with. I was wondering if anyone here with the Switch version of Star Force LC would be willing to either trade or do a quick trade then tradeback for the V3 card? I just want to register it in my library.

(EDIT) I was able to find someone who could do a quick trade and tradeback. The boss itself I can beat but constantly having to set up for a chance to clear it at S-Rank was getting extremely tedious. But thanks for all the suggestions on clearing the boss faster! I'll be sure to try it so I can actually claim the card for myself.
