The most cherished scene I think is in danger of getting left out is the where the fat Shinra guy Palmer gets hit by an 18 wheeler

Rutibex posted:i think square starts by designing like 10-12 cool "set piece" moments for every final fantasy game, then just tries to cobble them together narratively in any convoluted way they possibly can. This is literally by their own admission what happened with FF13, which is why you have weird poo poo happening like a character dying very close to the end of the game only to be brought back to life an hour later at the ending so that he can be killed again

Mega64 posted:I think they're calling those games "Bravely Default" now. Bravely Default / BD2 are really good games, if you liked FF5 you will like them. It's too bad they're only on 3DS, but Nintendo moving all their poo poo to the Switch and SE starting to move all their poo poo to Windows means they'll probably be available on an actually good platform sooner or later. I think BD is already being ported to Switch or something Jimmy Hats posted:The problem there is that bravely defaults entire gameplay design is "streamlined grinding!!" and it sucks poo poo Disagree, it just lets you turn up or down the encounter rate according to what you feel like doing. The chain battle mechanic in BD2 is cool as well. The game doesn't demand you grind for hours to beat a boss or anything, you can just mix and match jobs to do poo poo.

Zorodius posted:What the hell does "Bravely Default" mean? Is that like when you wait for your student loans to pay themselves? short answer: its anime bullshit long answer: the main mechanic of the game is that you can take extra actions on your turn ("Brave"), but doing so spends BP, which you build up a surplus up by skipping your turn and defending ("Default"). You can Brave without having surplus BP but you go into BP debt and forfeit your next few turns until you get back to 0

esperterra posted:That's a shame. Maybe I'll grab it on sale one of these days and peep it myself. I played a lot of WoFF, it's cute and funny and I'm basically the exact target audience for the game ("HOLY gently caress THE FIGHTER FROM EINHANDER IS IN THIS GAME???") but the gameplay and level design are really simplistic and repetitive. I don't think it ever really goes anywhere with its systems. KH Chat: lol remember that part in KH2 where they loving killed goofy (it was a fakeout)

communism bitch posted:Font Mission 3 had an in-game PC and you could change your desktop wallpaper, browse the far future internet, and send "electronic-mail". it was dope af tbh when i first beat FM3 as a child I had no idea how switching parts or anything like that worked so I beat the entire game with the starter mechs + the hilariously overpowered one you get from using the DEMON DIALER internet phone at the end of the game e: i was always super pumped for the levels where you had to fight the US military. Even when I was like 9 I belonged on an FBI watchlist Also thinking about how the game basically had two story campaigns, if it came out today it'd be two full priced games lol Chillgamesh fucked around with this message at 18:56 on Mar 4, 2018 |

Same with basically every SNES and earlier FF except 5, which owns.Zane posted:which was ground zero for their journey towards bloated and tropey overproduced nonsense but can still somehow be worsened i'm sure. FF6 and especially FF4 are full of dumb lazy archetypes and stuff though. Things were always this way. esperterra posted:My barometer for if I'll be okay or not okay with how dumb VIIR might be is basically, if it's as bad or not as bad as the Compilation they did an okay job. If it somehow gets dumber than some of that poo poo did then lol I genuinely think the worst they'll do in terms of writing quality is Crisis Core. Mock me for my lack of cynicism but I seriously doubt they have another Dirge of Cerberus in them.

beep by grandpa posted:Which is gonna come out or get cancelled first: ff7 remake or barkley gaiden 2. FF7R *IS* TMROTNN:EFN7-ROC:TOGOTM-C2OTHBS, you loving pleb Meme Emulator posted:3 is long and generic and good for that if youre looking for a long, generic RPG. I was just thinking about this as I stepped out to go for a run, I can't really place my finger on why I like Breath of Fire 3 so much. It is really generic and doesn't do anything special - the setting and characters are all bog standard fantasy stuff. I think it just has a lot of personality and when you're playing through the game as a kid there's a lot of foreboding horror and darkness in the story beats that wasn't present in a lot of other games at a the time. Stuff like a party member revealing he participated in a genocidal war of extermination against your race, and has been following you specifically to finish the job, the artificial life form begging you to kill it, and the automated black ship of death that cruises around by itself vomiting killer robots everywhere that you have to hijack. And the loving desert.  I agree with you on BoF4 just straight being a good game though. The game has a really unique eastern setting and themes, and Fou-Lu and Yuna are really strong and memorable antagonists. Chillgamesh fucked around with this message at 15:51 on Mar 28, 2018 |

Uncle at Nintendo posted:If I wanna play FFV, which translation should I play? The PS1 version patched into an SNES ROM? deffo the GBA version The Big Word posted:I can't speak for the PS1 port at all other than that it has the same reputation for slowdown and annoying loading times as PS1 chrono trigger, but both of the other versions have high quality translations. GBA is more polished, SNES fan translation is more goofy. It comes down to whether you want that extra vertical resolution or the bonus jobs/dungeons (which are actually fuckin tight and worth it imo) They're both goofy, but SNES Fan Translation is goofy in a different way than GBA's. It's a lot drier overall but some of their translation choices are hilarious, like when the last crystal explodes and the world is doomed and all Bartz* can say is "Oh poo poo!" *Butz

Taima posted:The fact is, FFX was real good. Even the laugh scene, while executed poorly, actually does a borderline amazing job of conveying the emotion that sometimes when poo poo is terrible you just have to laugh no matter how awkward and unjustified it is, and how stupid you feel when doing it. Oh I agree entirely, I think FFX is a great game. It's not one of my favorites but the art direction is beautiful and the gameplay is fun. I think the actors do a decent job, too. It's just, like all Final Fantasy games, really easy to make fun of.

LadyPictureShow posted:Yeah, 12 has kind of the same issue once you branched out the license grid too Everyone can use katanas now, whatever). I want to say it was always Tidus, Yuna and Rikku/Wakka for their overdrives and crazy stats their ultimate weapons gave them to take on the ultra-beefy bosses. In FF12 a few characters were strictly better than the others because they had faster attack animations with the best endgame weapons and thus had higher dps. The high STR/SPD characters were generally better than the high MAG ones because magic sucked, so you just used Vaan, Basch, and I think Ashe, and then Penelo and Balthier were worse, and Fran was the worst of all? In IZJS/TZA they fixed this and I think every character's attack speed is the same with all weapons, and also every character maxes out their stats eventually, but your characters still have some degree of individuality due to the class system. Magic is also a lot stronger in IZJS/TZA. In FFX all your dudes were identical except for Overdrives, I think, but I never did any sort of grinding/postgame content in that game. I got to Lestallum like two weeks ago in FFXV and I'm level 50 and I'm still in Chapter 3. Please send help

FactsAreUseless posted:Kinda. Auron is unsent - he didn't come back from the dead, when he died he basically said "No, gently caress that" and stuck around. He still has a physical body, it's just made or sustained by pyreflies or something. I don't remember the relationship between the unsent and pyreflies exactly. Yu Yevon, around whom the Yevon religion is based, was the king of the city-state of Zanarkand, which was a nation of wizards. They went to war with Bevelle, which was a city of machinists. Turns out guns > magic, and Bevelle was showing no signs of allowing Zanarkand to surrender, so Yu Yevon ordered every man, woman, and child of Zanarkand to convert themselves to fayth so that he could create the ultimate summon and smash Bevelle. This is what you see at the top of the mountain where you meet the Ronso - the huge wall of human bodies encased in stone. Two things happen as a result of this, one is that the Yu Yevon summons Sin from the massive Fayth which proceeds to obliterate Bevelle so loving hard they give up and start worshipping it, the other is that the Fayth create an astral projection of Zanarkand where they can hang out instead of being encased in stone all day like the Fayth Yuna uses to summon Ifrit/Bahamut/etc. Both Zanarkands are actually a physical place in FFX's world. There isn't a timeskip where Tidus washes up in Besaid after getting sucked into Sin. The actual Zanarkand is the goal of Yuna's pilgrimage, the Dream Zanarkand from the start of the game is way off in the sea in the middle of nowhere, which is why Sin never touched it until Jecht, who was from Dream Zanarkand, became Sin and sought it out. ~loremaster~
