Well, the idea can be traced further back than that -- think of the Renzokugiri materia from FFVII. I'm not sure as to the Western name, Quadra-cut or something like that. Basic modifier than changed one attack into two, and then four.

u probably speak for "Double Cut/4x Cut" that was the name in EU version of the game.

OP, you just spoke by my thoughts ;)

I mean, really, exackly what I was thinking.

And one more thing, I cant stop listening to the audio in "Media" room on this site, this is so thrilling instrumental track. I would love to hear more in game, well, maybe soon ;)

That's the one, thank you. Amusingly enough, I always found 'Omnislash' are better than name than the original, and I'm sort of glad they didn't translate it literally.

So yes. Out with 'double strike,' in with 'Multiple Strike'!

If I wanted to make a thread like this it would be titled:

"Why a fifteen-year Diablo stalwart chooses to support all ARPGS."

Also, grats on the massive thread.

I like to throw my words behind things (and at things, and around things, and occasionally past things), but it's not very often that I can show or give support in other ways.

And sometimes it does backfire. I once went from 'casual unpaid freelance journalist' for a niche blog/website to actually working 'for' one of the website's main interests as regards reviews and coverage. I thought I'd be helping that way, and getting closer to something I love...but I've learned you really can't have two masters, and eventually I had to sever ties with the whole thing because it became, well, a job. I was no longer able to be impartial or judgmental.

And at the end of the day, I value my right to speak my mind over being part of some 'inner circle' of yes-men and PR generators. On the other hand, sometimes that's not 'enough' for me, in regards to really expressing how much I want something to succeed.

I think with this one-time contribution, and my forum presence, I'm almost getting the best of both worlds there.

Bump in the name of an awesome thread and OP.

You (and everyone else) should read this some time if you want to, it's an amazingly good and informative post. (It's long, but since my 0 patience brain found it interesting enough, I'm sure you can read through it just fine. :P)
