Arcana Heart [PS2] - play as Fiona Mayfield (good ending)
This is a play-through using Fiona Mayfield in the PS2 version of Arcana Heart. Read on below for more information...
Fiona is the boss in Arcade Mode and is the penultimate boss in Story Mode. She is available from the start, which makes her a regular playable character.
===== About Fiona =====
She is the cute maid archetype... wielding a very large and heavy sword. In-fight, her sprites/animations do a great job of depicting her struggling to carry and use the sword, lol. Her Arcana is the Orichalkos, the Arcana of Metal.
===== About Arcana Heart =====
This is an excellent 2D fighting game with a diverse roster of characters... the gameplay is basically like a mix of Street Fighter and Guilty Gear with some Marvel VS elements thrown in.
The unique aspects of this game include the Arcana card system, where each card has a set of unique moves. When you select a character, you are also required to select an Arcana to go with her. This effectively gives a character a 2nd set of moves (of the Arcana). Each card specifically belongs to a certain character, but you can select any card you want for any character.
The other unique feature is the Special / Homing Flight button. When pressed and held down, this basically allows you to fly and home into the opponent no matter where they are as long as you have Flight gauge. So if you want to do air combos after launching the opponent, you need to use this button to fly up instead of pressing Up... don't worry, you'll get used to it. =)
