Games The Final Fantasy Thread!

Sephiroth has charisma?

I liked Kefka the best because he had the best lines in all of the FF games.

And yeah, I've watched YouTube vids of Penance battles, that looked tough. I don't think I would have even tried that one because it seemed like it would take way too much time. Congrats on beating him.

And I agree, FF VIII was very disappointing all things considered, but I still liked it overall. FFX was also disappointing as well because the clips at the beginning made me want to play it to see more, but there were fewer at the end that gave me as much satisfaction. So far, FF XII, from what I've played of it, has out-done them all by far, but I can't go in too much detail on that here.

And nothing wrong with a black mage complex... ^^

Speaking of black mages, I would also want to mention 8-bit Theater for any fans of Final Fantasy. Some very funny scenes, especially concerning Black Mage and White Mage, there

[Venom65437]

Maybe she just finds him sexy.... but boring.... of course he's so old, so... yucky.

 

[Gold Knight]

Can't be sexy if you're boring.

 

[zypher]

But he is so cool, I can't describe it.

I mabye want to date him to (I am a nerd)

 

[Venom65437]

You can to be sexy if you're boring... you think you're sexy right Phil? And God knows you bore the hell out of me!

 

[LadyHatake]

So Auron is your favorite character, Katy? You left that out

hrm...I can't decide on a favorite...XD Maybe Rikku from X and X-2? She's so funny XD

 

[KaiserRyuujin]

1) What's your favorite Final Fantasy game?

Eh, its hard to really pick one. But can say pretty much any of them below X and in no way in hell Tactics Advanced.

Sooooo III and VII :P They're neck and neck

2) Favorite character?

Damn, too hard to say and to choose just one in particular. Sabin and Cloud.

3) Favorite villain?

Damnit all to hell! Uh, Kefka was a tweaker I'll give him that. I liked Sephiroth, because when he killed a character he KILLED that character. Poor Aerith....=_= First time playing...never saw that shit coming...Plus, I just liked Sephiroths views although the Jenova "Mother" thing throwing chunks of her at ya was....hmmm a little....wiiierrd :P But, you cant beat a Platinum Haired Sword Wielding Psychopath that wouldnt take death for an answer heh heh.

4) Favorite summon?

Bahamut Zero

5) Which game have you replayed the most?

Final Fantasy VII, Im still searching for that Resurrect Materia! XD

6) What was the toughest challenge you ever had in a FF game?

Actually stomaching to play FF X, and actually picking up the controller to play X-2(Which I never did).

7) What was your favorite clip in the games?

This I really cant answer, because there are alot of good ones.

8) If you would like to see a sequel to any of the games, which would it be?

None. SquareEnix has no clue what they're doing anymore. I just want them to fade away or find themselfs again and become what they were as SquareSoft.

9) What side-game do you like the most?

Never got to much into the side games, just liked going along the normal stuff killing and what not. Though the snow boarding game on FFVII for some reason was fun :P

10) If you could date a FF character, who would it be?

=_= Smeg if I know.

Re: FF XII Thread: Talk Away!!!

i hate to live in europe when it comes to games

I live in Europe, yet I'm playing FFXII right now Thanks to a little modchip in my PS2 and eBay for finding the game at a good price (and since the €uro has never been this strong importing from the US is really interesting right now~)

Anyway, the game is really really great, especially the battle system that is possibly the best I've seen in a FF ever.

Spoiler: gameplay

I did have some doubts tho about the battle system at first, because it just seems like an offline MMORPG to me, but the Gambit system is really enjoyable. If only Star Ocean 3 could have the same Gambit system... But I digress. I do like the License system too, since it feels just somehow right, I mean, instead of just finding an uber God Save the Queen sword on the ground and using it immediately, you have to actually train for it, by crushing enough monsters to earn the right to wield it. Same with the looting system, I always found it weird that non-human enemies were keeping gils with them, so now, selling loots to earn money just feels right. I like the fact that though the Quickenings are uber-powerful attacks, it leaves you with not a single MP after, which, if you don't kill the enemy with the quickening, leaves you very vulnerable.

Spoiler: story

Didn't see much of the story so far, but, though this is not the best we had, and though there is that Star Wars ambiance that leaves somehow a sense of déjà vu, I like it so far (in my case I just got the Sword of Kings). I like the fact that we're in the Ivalice world like FFT (Velius as the first esper ? Wiegraf, show yourself ! ). Though I can't really stand Vaan, the quite typical shounen hero (I wonder where went the great male leads, like Cloud or Squall...), at least the other characters are quite great, especially Basch.

Re: FF XII Thread: Talk Away!!!

I've played much further into the game, and I have to admit this game has lost its luster for me. Needs more story twists and character development to inspire me to play more. I've also gotten somewhat tired of the fighting system. Venom and I were talking about it the other day, and it's really no fun if you can't "see" giant monsters while fighting them, and oftentimes because of the ability to move around, you can't see them entirely.

Right now I'd have to say that Final Fantasy 6 is safe as my favorite for now.

 

[Gold Knight]

5) Which game have you replayed the most?

Final Fantasy VII, Im still searching for that Resurrect Materia! XD

Good luck with that, Kaiser.

6) Defeating the aeons because I didn't want to hurt them.

Hehe, that's funny, weiss-raine.

Well, a new topic here: What do you guys think of Yoshitaka Amano's art?

If you guys don't know him, you've seen his monster and character designs at least if you've played a lot of FF. He also illustrates Vampire Hunter D. Here's his wiki biography.

Also here's a gallery of his works and a lot of FF misc. art: http://www.adunaph3l.net/atma/

Be sure to check out his FF I, II, III, etc. stuff, they're awesome. I love the contrasts of black and white in his monster designs. For example, Garland!

Some good colored stuff too.

 

[Venom65437]

I like his art work, it isn't too bad. It's not my favorite art ever, but it's good for what it's supposed to do. Sometimes I think he makes his males look to girly thou.... especially his pictures for the male leads in FF 2... jeez...

 

[Venom65437]

Re: FF XII Thread: Talk Away!!!

The more I play this, the more flaws I see. This is a good game... but it doesn't stack up to most Final Fantasies, IMO. Color me disappointed.

 

[Xophien]

I'm not that fond of his art, it's a bit too weird for my taste, but I really love the logos he has done for the games till now, like the FFX one :

By the way I wonder why the american releases don't keep these logos... The FFXII one was really good too...
