<blockquote><i>Originally posted by Joel Fagin</i><p>That's irrelevant. When you create a sequel for a game, you have to assume the first one went a certain way so that you know where you stand with the second. Rolf's dream had Alis fighting Dark Force alone, didn't it? As did the images from Elsydeon, yet I usually complete the game with just Noah and Myau left alive. They made an assumption on how the first game went. They assumed you won, that Alis fought Dark Force alone at least for a time, and they almost certainly assumed that everyone was kitted out in laconia for the battles against Lassic and Dark Force.<p> - Joel Fagin<br></blockquote><p>About Laconia, I don´t know. The equipment used to fight Dark Force in PS1 is not mentioned anywhere after the battle. We don´t even know if Alis died during that fight. We only know that she fought DF, and that she was alive after that fight. But when she dies, but you get to kill him, Nero ressurrects her.<p>We see scenes of DF and Alis, and no one else. Do we see no one else because they weren´t there, or is that because the other 3 just weren´t spotted on those pictures? Or was DF particularly chasing Alis at that moment, rather ignoring the other 3? Who are we to answer these questions?<p>The history of that battle - who fought, how they fought, who died, who survived, what weapons were used - was left blank.
