It's kind of incredible for the main love story that Tidus's managed to seal the deal when we're only like 2/3rds through the game. You usually have to wait until the post credits or for someone to die.

Omobono posted:Depends on the battle system. In 7, I usually loaded Cloud with a couple summon materia to bring down the thunder (or hellfire or Bahamut) if the enemy was resistant to Buster sword to the face. But that was without being able to tag in, say, Red or Yuffie or whoever had the offensive spells loaded. IIRC Cloud is actually one of the better mages in your party in FF7, as well as being a great physical shitkicker. Being Captain America has it's perks.

What makes Crono amazing is his ultimate weapon has like a 70% crit rate and a godlike attack power. Even on a minimal XP run, where Crono stays at level 1 he's still one of your best attackers by the endgame.

Off the top of my head, Sun shades are a 20% or 25% boost to damage, and Prism Specs are 50%, which are both pretty sweet. Frog's the only one who gets a crit boosting item aside from a couple of new accessories in the DS version. In the low level game specifically, you usually want Crono holding on to the wallet (so you earn no experience from fights) or Gold Stud (so he can actually use his spells) I think.

Man, I do not even remember this boss at all. When people were hinting about "oh man, the next boss", I thought I got the order mixed up and they were talking about the boss two out from now. I was sure Bevelle was the last we saw of Seymour until the endgame.

Do humans even have surnames? I always just thought it was because Spira predates surnames in general. Like how you used to be called after your job, Tom Builder, Jim Fletcher and suchlike.

No, 8 is definitely a bad game.dis astranagant posted:Seymour Flux seems to be THAT BOSS more for people who noticed that Tidus gets Flee really early and wouldn't quit using it. And to a lesser extent for people who skipped most of the Calm Lands crap. Yeah, I learned this strategy was bad at a young age when one of my friends was talking about Jenova LIFE and other bosses in FF7 kicking his rear end because he just ran from most random encounters, which was a baffling idea to me and a few of my other nerd pals.

NikkolasKing posted:Only Tidus and Jecht weren't "real" before coming in contact with Sin. But Tidus' Mother is on the Farplane just like "real" Spirans. Why? I dunno. And.... The Al Bhed think that the Farplane doesn't contain the souls of the dead, they just reflect what you yourself bring there back at you or something, so there's that. I mean, there's the detail that alive people never show up but....

You know how in Dragon Quest VIII the main character is totally immune to all curses because of a late game twist? And how that is both crucial to the plot and a cool ingame mechanic? Tidus is just lucky Square didn't put the Aeons on the field at the same time as the party, or any time Seymour used banish that'd be Game Over.

ManlyGrunting posted:Holy moley, the bosses are so forgettable in this part that I completely forgot about this boss and thought people were referring to the other forgettable boss before That Motherfucker, which everyone else seems to have forgotten. Yeah, same here, I thought we only had The switchy-platform thingy, then beta Yuna, I have zero memory of this boss. He seems like a real pushover though, so that's probably why.

Bufuman posted:That one may be more down to Fran's particular home. For all we know there are other forests with other Viera groups that don't react nearly as strongly as Fran's clan does to their villagers wanting to go adventuring. There definitely are other villages since the Viera males have at least one. I got the impression that while Viera leaving was relatively rare and a big deal to village Viera, they also live for loving ever, so a bunch have built up over the years.

ApplesandOranges posted:But you're never forced to play Triple Triad. There's never a point in the story where the game goes, 'okay Squall, play some card games to prove you're a worthy SeeD.'. Yes, cards give you access to a lot of useful items and magic to break the game over the knee. But it's not like FFVIII is particularly hard in the first place. The best way to use the cards in FFVIII is to never play the actual game. Much like FFVIII itself, really.

McDragon posted:This whole Sin fighting bit gets very silly. Getting in the innards and breaking vital bits makes sense, but getting into a straight-up fight first is just ridiculous. I do like the silliness in a way, but it just throws all sense of Sin danger out the window. The thing is, the idea of a giant unstoppable kill monster that eats civilisations whole needing to be defeated by our heroes fighting it's way through it's innards to the black heart beneath has been done competently before. By Square. I think Chrono Trigger really sells it a lot more. Aside from general destruction and having the initial outside bit straight murder the main character earlier in the story so your know it isn't loving around, in the end actually getting inside needs a multi-form boss rush or literally smashing a time jet into it's face at a billion miles an hour.

ZiegeDame posted:Or just walking up to it and hacking it's face open. Thing is Chrono Trigger let you do that from the moment you reach the End of Time, you're just gonna get your rear end kicked because you're trying to fight the end boss at level 12. Yeah, but aside from when you fight Lavos in Zeal it does a megaman style boss rush and imitates all the previous main bosses before you fight the outer shell, so it's a challenge unless you're NG+ or a grinding nutter.

Geostomp posted:I know, but still. I think it's because of when it got popular. At least in my memory, most people played Final Fantasy 7 through '98, accounting for how long the game was and people picking it up later through word of mouth, that'll be around the 98-00 era. Those kids who it impacted the most and were the biggest superfans were probably hitting age 13-16 around the early 2000s which was right when things like Newgrounds and Linkin Park were becoming popular and the internet was hitting peak Edge. Angst and black trenchcoats was the flavour of the day, and people latched onto and emphasised those aspects of the game. And then as time went on most people's memories of FF7 are heavily influenced by the fandom and all the annoying assholes called Sephiroth_89 on MSN messenger and various anime forums.

Yeah XDETH would have freed himself from his bonds eventually. FFV is pretty similar to, say, VII, in that you are constantly one step behind Exdeath pretty much the entire time. Speaking of FFVII, the Black materia is the wrong argument to make. I think it can be argued that if Cloud had never interacted with Jenova's headless torso inside the shinra building and caused it to "awaken" then the entire plot doesn't start when it does (though Sephiroth probably would have gained control eventually anyway).
