You're right, FF9 is the beginning of 15 years of bad FF games, including FF10.

U-DO Burger posted:Coming off of Xenogears I thought both Kuja and Ultimecia were pretty meh as far as villains go Kuja is one of my favourite villains in the series. I hated him when the game came out because I was 15 and not smart enough to read him beyond 'flouncy and annoying', but he's got a surprisingly deep backstory and gets one of the best character arcs and plot motivations an FF villain has ever gotten. FF9 is one of those games I always recommend you go back and play as an adult, if you were a kid when you last played it. It's straight-up great, but not so much on a teenager's surface read. Schremp Howard posted:Triple Triad owns. Yeah, the only real black mark on FF9 is that it replaced the amazing Triple Triad with the terrible Tetra Master, a card game decided by random invisible dice rolls.

Triple Triad owns. Also Binding of Isaac isn't available digitally in the US and I am displeased.

Also, the Undertale dynamic theme is now available to buy on its own. It's pretty nice

You know, I actually appreciate when people make long posts about why they like stuff, and I'd hate to discourage that. I say bring on more posts like that one about FF9. Gimme a thousand words on why Final Fantasy Mystic Quest actually owns! (I've never played Mystic Quest)

If FF8 would have just been about the adventures of Laguna, Kiros, and Ward. I don't think anyone here would argue that it would have been the best game in the series hands down.

FF2 gave us SaGa, therefore I'm obligated to love it. Any other FF game is scored on the scale of high fantasy versus semi-modern stuff with some magic going on maybe.

The Arkham games are on sale; I know Knight's execution on PC is a coin toss, even after patching, but how is it on the PS4? :tenbux: is a very interesting price. Might fetch Asscreed Syndicate too since I'm a peasant with no taste.

I mean it works unlike the PC version. It's the worst Arkham game but it's not awful or anything either.

Nickoten posted:You know, I actually appreciate when people make long posts about why they like stuff, and I'd hate to discourage that. Mystic Quest is a fun but incredibly basic game. Personally I think it’s worth a play through and does some neat things (weapons being overworld tools, enemies changing sprites when they’re almost dead, every enemy in the game is a static kill-once tile on the map, legendary music) but really just feels like an average SNES JRPG overall. E: For $10 Arkham Knight is totally worth it. It’s my favorite of the series now, though Asylum still holds up really well.

The occasional long post expounding on a well-formed opinion is a good thing. If people don't like it they're not obligated to read it. And sometimes the opposite is also true. Sometimes an opinion is so sensible and straightforward that it requires nothing to back it up. In those cases, short posts are also good.

Yeah it does lol. But not because of the Tidus laugh, I actually really like his and Yuna's melodramatic romance, along with the whole cast being pretty fun. The world is also bizarre and beautiful, and the FMV coming out of a PS2 blew my drat mind. It's the game play that smells like buffalo diarrhea and tastes even worse. What were they thinking.

There's a cleanness to the polygons and the weird animations that still looks bright and distinct, and even though I will definitely play Remake...I don't think the game ever needed a remake. This article sums up my feelings about 7 pretty well, but most of these feelings cropped up while reading Elentor's FF7 LP over the last few years.

Mystic Quest is a very flawed game but it probably has the best soundtrack in the whole series which is a pretty big thing given the series but man it just fuckin owns. Like as much as I love me the FFIV boss music, it still has nothing on the 16 bit metal glory of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUGDp39srk0

Was FFX the first one to get a sequel, or was it FFVII? I always thought it was weird that the only pre-PS era game to get a sequel was FFIV when we all know that FFVI is pretty much considered either the best or second-best FF of them all, but given the quality of most FF sequels that might be a blessing.

I mean, IV and VII ended pretty definitively and they pumped out some garbage sequels for those so  I never played FFX but I heard the girl band sequel was pretty good?
