Grandia II/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Fetish Fuel Station Attendant: Millenia.
  • Game Breaker:
    • The "Spellbinding Eye" technique can turn anything into an immobile, incapacitated punching bag. In a subversion of Contractual Boss Immunity, this includes the final boss.
    • Early in the game (really early), you can fight enemies that drop an item which permanently increases your Defense. Grind enough and you are practically invincible. The only way to get killed using those is when facing the Bonus Dungeon's Demonic Spider enemies that can wipe out your party in one hit. The Valmar Pieces and Pope Zera-Valmar are ridiculously easy.
  • Porting Disaster:
    • The PlayStation 2 version was notoriously buggy.
    • The PC version even more so. It's possible that Millenia, during her Hopeless Boss Fight, will not end the fight to progress the story, and will just wear you down until you inevitably start over (this happens if you run the Tutorial in the Carbo Village Weapons Shop before fighting Millenia). It's also possible for the characters' mugshots to randomly replace item textures in battle, so monsters drop Millenia coins or Roan bombs.
  • Viewer Gender Confusion: Roan sounds more like a girl with a stuffy nose than a boy. He also looks more like a girl than a boy, especially after getting his prince(ss?) outfit.
