OatmealRaisin posted:Nomura was at his best in the PS1 era when technology limitations stopped him from adding details upon details to his characters. Also, according to rumor he has a weird sense of humor. I've heard that the fur lining on Squall's jacket in particular was added just to make the CG team's life hell. You see Lulu's beltskirt? He wanted to see how the CG team would handle that, that's why they did it. They 'handled' it by never showing Lulu from the waist-down in CGs. And in one CG where the entire group pretty much needs to have their entire bodies shown, Lulu is mysteriously absent.

Krad posted:I thought the game showed not-Ramza's dad as a bum or someone who didn't have a real job or something like that during the ending. The sad part is that it wouldn't have taken much time to find some actual good arguments, but he just went 'No, SHUT UP! We're going home!'

FF7 was my first, FF9 is my favourite, FF5 is the one I think has the best gameplay.

bef posted:Is final fantasy tactics advance any good? I've heard good (and difficult) things about the one on the playstation but I was wondering if the gba version holds up as well. Neither of the stories for the 2 FFTA games are worth much, but FFTA2 has pretty good sRPG gameplay, and both are markedly different from FFT. General consensus is that FFT is the best of the lot, although personally I preferred FFTA2 to it.

This Jacket Is Me posted:I kinda don't think this. There were tons of jRPGs both before and after FF7, and tons are loads of jRPGs before and after FF9. I don't think FF7 had a noticeable effect on the popularity of the genre. Perhaps there seems like less on the flagship systems, but that's only because there's many on handhelds. Popularity as in 'mainstream attention in the West', maybe. Pokemon probably helped with that too.

You guys are just wimps. Don't tell me you did wimp stuff like equipping armour too.  (But seriously, only Garuda and Cloud of Darkness were actual difficult fights. The rest were pretty standard for any jRPG.)

Mazed posted:What, by you, makes Kuja so good? Well, to put it simply, I'd say that he's the only FF villain (from the mainline series, anyway) that continues to develop as a character throughout the course of the game. All other FF villains have their motivations/character set in stone by the time you first see them.

To the point that even the CEO of SE and the developers acknowledged it. Well, be fair. FFXIII is 'divisive'. FFXIV is flat-out despised.

Momomo posted:Yeah, but it wasn't. I've only read lps of both, but Chrono Cross didn't have people sitting in chairs narrating for half the game. Yeah, they compressed half the game's narration into ten minutes instead. Both are severely flawed games, but I have to say I like Xenogears more because A) giant robots, B) a more interesting battle system, and C) the characters have, well, character.

Barudak posted:Doesn't it split the critical distinction text onto two different lines? So if you're just slamming X trying to skip dialog asap it'll seem like its telling you to attack while the tail is up because you gloss over the second text box? 'Attack while the tail's up!' 'It's gonna use it's Laser!' Which made it sound like it was some kind of race against the clock and you had to pile on as much damage as possible to stop it using the Laser.

Nier is good with hitting you with emotional gutpunches. However if you try to actually analyze the story you soon realize that very little of it makes any logical sense.
