Message: [QUOTE="deceptionfalls, post: 273439, member: 413"] I can tolerate random encounters if they let me flee battles easily or they let me activate an item that temporarily lowers encounter rate, like in Pokémon. Pokémon is really the only franchise that actually execute the idea of random encounters perfectly. An encounter doesn't only mean you're gonna get XP out of it, you can find a pokemon you really like and bam, new party members, or at least grinding actively makes your existing party members better through EVs. It only becomes a pain when you already have your finalized team with everyone at high levels, but that's like at the end of the game pretty much. Sadly other games just make the encounters unbearable from how frequent they are, I dropped Breath of Fire IV because of that. [/QUOTE]
