Ys Origin: Adol Who? Available on Steam

[ChaoofNee]

Playing through as Yunica on Normal for my first time ever. Just took down the centipede boss!

What buttons did you guys map abilities to? I have special on X and jump on B so it's kind of annoying to charge it. Maybe I should drop jump to A, attack to X, special to Y and boost to B.

That's what I was thinking of doing. That makes a lot of sense.

The PSP games always mapped the buttons to the equivalent of A for Jump, X for attack, B for Special and Y for Boost. I got used to it, but it was REALLY damn awkward.

Also awkward is clicking Right Stick to bring up Inventory. Odd placement.

I changed that to start immediately. Changing special attacks is L and R bumpers. I was also considering special on B, that wouldn't be so bad.

Here's my layout on the Hori RAP EX-SE:

B X Y LB
A LT RT RB

B to attack, X to jump, Y for magic, A to boost. Start for the inventory, and Back as the walk button.
I'm using LT & RT to switch powers. One more bonus is that Steam's version doesn't require fucking around with Joy2Key to remap the arcade stick (treated as a POV hat) to keys.

I took down the constructor boss with 1 hit point left. *cue Tekken announcer saying "Great!"*
