416: Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution PS2 \\ 3rd dan Brad, Quest mode: quests get MANDATORY?? :OO
4So, I've reached Club Sega Plant Area, the fourth virtual arcade with kick boxer Brad Burns in Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution's "Quest" mode on PS2, and now it's saying it won't let me get to the tournament to unlock the next arcade until I complete four quests--and half of the ones it shows me are things I don't want to do, combat evasions or complicated (or high damage, anyway) combos. ; P Why's the game gotta tell me how to fight?
One was *not* doing evasions, which was fine and dandy. ; ) The other was a "quest" to fight four Kage-Maru AIs of 4th dan rank or higher--and then the game didn't give me an AI meeting that description until I'd fought for about an hour and a half. ; P
Just one more high rank Kage to find now, but man, what a way to make a game frustrating. I just hope completing that one unlocks some *less* annoying "quest," because if I have to do those combat evasion or combo ones to get out of this arcade and on to the next...it's not gonna happen, I'll just stick with VF5's Quest mode, which gives you free access to all the virtual arcades from the start, and doesn't have silly little "quests" with their arbitrary "fight this way" rules. ; PPP I don't play fighting games to get told what buttons I have to hit, maaaaan.

Also, the music in a lot of these reworked stages kind of blows. And something like only 1 out of 4 of the item matches I got gave me an actual item, instead of a meager amount of in-game money--not that there's anything that seems worth buying in the customization "shop," anyway. And the one item was a tattoo. ; PPP
The fighting itself was mostly fine--felt good about some of the Brad moves I had going, and right at the end I finally went into Free Training and found a higher damage throw to do (df, df GP), so that'll be useful. Went up three dan ranks, too! To what, 6th dan or something. The ranking up has been going surprisingly quickly, but I suppose it'll slow down if I get stuck in this artcade for much longer, since it only has AIs up to 7th dan. (In fact, it looks like even here it slowed down significantly since I got to 6th dan.)
Tried doing some leaping attacks (up-forward punch) on downed opponents, but those mostly didn't work because there's a significant delay in getting them off in this game--they're much faster in VF5.
Unlocked a surprisingly number of wallpapers in this session, so that was kind of neat.
