I should also mention that it is constantly phoning home and that doing a reinstall of FFVII does between jack and poo poo. At one point I had actually combed through my computer's registry for every instance of final fantasy, ffvii, etc. and even then it would screw up on the first boot. If at any time that you want your steam copy of FFVII to use the same account as your other stuff, keep in mind that it IS possible to transfer it over. You just have to login to the fake account (with the first link, of course), delink the Steam integration, and then set your actual S-E account to be linked with your Steam account. It will take a while to update the accounts but it will eventually be the correct one. Can you tell I've had to deal with this nonsense already?

The funny parts aren't even that. "Cieth is a combination of the word 'death' and the gibberish 'cie'". They must be on datalogs.

I've had half an eye on it since it came out that ARR was Actually Good. Though the OP of the MMO HMO thread kinda bums me out - can you really not use Carbuncles once you are a Summoner or Scholar? Half the reason I want to play is to have carby friends.

Final Fantasy II and Dragon Quest II may be some the worst games in their series, but their music is fantastic. I love the logo for it too, and it's a shame they didn't go for a unique logo in each game.

FFIII shares the same style of logo.  Interesting to see that the standard FF logo (Runic MT font, shaded Amano pic in the background), didn't really appear until FF4, initially only in Japan, that is, until FF7.

As a summoner you're stuck with Carbuncles and Ifrit until you unlock other summons via class quests. Scholars completely lose them in favor for faeries, one of which is become infamous for constantly pulling aggro (EOS  ).

Yeah OK the writing isn't award-winning and it's also absolutely riddled with ASOIAF references, but it's still a far cry better, and better localized, than anything SE as put out in the last decade, probably. That's why people tend to gush over it.

It's part of the reason you can get such widely varied translations from within a single company. To use a more recognizable name, Alexander O. Smith's company Kajiya Production is hired to do a lot of stuff although IIRC he began in-studio at S-E. ImpAtom fucked around with this message at 01:26 on Oct 25, 2013 |
