    It (video) made it seem like there were cut scenes in the game. :/

    killed Elle Kaiser & ll Diavolo for "Sword of Soonsin" & "Armor of Eternium" like piece of cake.

    now walk around Wolfen Fortress leveling and waiting for update.

    There are cut scenes in the game. They just happen to use the in-game 2D engine -- just like the classic RPGs CGS is emulating.

    Yeah, I think the Tales of series does that a lot, anime sequences of cutscenes that are rendered by the game engine in the actual game.

    Same with FF 1, 2 and 3/6, as well as Secret of Mana. Chrono Trigger does have anime cut scenes, but they were added for the GBA release. Some Sega CD RPGs like Vay did originally have anime cut scenes, but others like Lunar didn't.

    I have yet to see anything, so far.

    You would think maybe one or two would come before 20hrs of linear gameplay.

    Whenever the party splits up for a conversation -- that's a cut scene.

    It's never too late to report bugs if the fix hasn't been released yet. Don't assume that the next update will fix this bug, i.e. 1.0.1 never mentioned this fix on itune's description. The medallions can only be used by one other character at a time besides Killian and Spinel so it's pretty much unfair to the other characters.

    ....

    Correct. I'm aware that the progression of a story line, that does not involve game play, is considered a cutscene. However, I'm talking about pre-rendered (as most of us consider a cutscene to be), just as the opening movie lead me to believe.

    An opening movie filled with short instances regarding the story line; It leads the player on to believe that they are parts of a whole. Just seems last minute. As if pre-rendered cutscenes were scrapped last minute, and pieced together as an opening, and apparently ending, movie.

    Not too torn up over it, though.

    The bug had been reported several times already; the developer had already said it was on their docket. I didn't mean to come across harshly, just to reassure that it was being taken care of. A few pages back the developer went through everything that is in the update and the medallion bug is there.

    And you are right -- you only get to do one character besides Killian and Spinel. I hadn't noticed because I never tried upgrading with more than two or three bronze medallions.

    Fair enough. It certainly would be good, since that opening anime is very nicely done.

    I enjoyed FF 1&2 would it be safe to say that I'd probably enjoy this game?

    App Store seems to be having an orgy of updates, sure hope we'll have the update for this game today.

    Yes. It's more than a safe bet.

    At 19 hours in, and have a couple of questions...

    Do health and/or mana ever regenerate? Killian is wearing the Amulet of Restoration, and Gelts has learned Cleric Aura, but I never see a change in HP or MP levels without using a potion or eating. Am I missing something, or is this just the way it is?

    As understand it, the amulet etc. work only during combat. Haven't tried them myself.
