To apply the bleed status ailment, you must press the action button when the outer circle approaches the inner one. вЂњDecisive StabвЂќ is an ability with a timed event. If you succeed this test they can often apply additional status effects such as bleed. Many of the special abilities include a timed event that you can practice and become better at executing. No, the game hasnвЂ™t completely eradicated the RNG formulas but it is extremely well balanced.

I couldnвЂ™t save scum as I had been called out on it in a previous episode. When I was playing the latter I found myself very frustrated a few times, going as far as cutting an episode short after losing a party member who really jived with my play style.

My roommate is home which doesnвЂ™t make for a good recording environment. IвЂ™m sitting here and I find myself wanting to go play LISA the Joyful.
