Tales of Symphonia Help

So a friend was over the other day who had completed the game, and was telling me a few things about it.

When I asked him where I get Sheena, he said in Luin and to make sure i said she was nice. Saying it, would get her in your party.

I got to that point, and she said "Blah blah, it doesn't make any difference" regardless of what option I chose.

I wouldn't be as concerned if I couldn't find any other cutscene or event going on in Luin and nothing to point me in the next direction.

What am I doing wrong?

Sheena will join your party eventually. I was playing through the game for a second time and she joined my party a little later than she did on my first run through. I have no idea on what I did different. You didn't happen to go to Lake Umacy (at least I think that's what it is called) first? This might be a completely different area of the game, but I'm pretty sure that is it in the same area.

lloyd has different "affection" levels with each character. these levels go up or down depending upon how you respond to the various dialogues during normal cutscenes and also those glowing circles on the world map. it affects a certain part of the story late in the game that I won't spoil for you.

sheena will join your party no matter what, you can't avoid getting her. as the previous poster noted, though, it can happen at different times depending on your responses to her during the various encounters.

hope this helps.

So what the hell do I do after I finish the wind dungeon thing in Asgard?
