Made a big collage of NPCs from FF12 over the weekend. Putting in spoilers because the final boss is on it. Biggest codpiece variety in gaming? https://twitter.com/vgcartography/status/1456259233612124162?s=20

Mesadoram posted:The WOTL translation was a touch too flowery for me as well If nothing else, the new translation deserves props for organically putting a “spoony bard” reference in the game. I don’t think the guy was up his own rear end if he did that, he just tried emulating a style he want overly familiar with.

Final Fantasy IX is the best mainline series FF game. Final Fantasy Tactics is not only the best Final Fantasy overall, but also in the top 10 greatest games of all time. Oh, and Final Fantasy XIV is the best FF MMO.

IX is fine the combat was poo poo and it was outdone in every way by FFX except that FFX didn’t have as storybook/cartoonish of an aesthetic and didn’t have Vivi. I understand why people like it but it is not objectively the best non-MMO Final Fantasy. The best non-MMO FF is FFV.

FFX doesn’t have a game-spanning scavenger hunt minigame though? I feel like id probably have replayed it by now if it did…

FFIX may be just as good as all other final fantasies but chocobo hot and cold leaves me without the hot

Fixed that for you. If it weren't for the four job fiesta, Five would be remembered as that one on the anthologies collection no one wanted to play. Sure the job system is fun, but gotdamn if I'm not just mashing A thru every single story sequence. The best FFV4JF mod would be the one that removed all dialogue and scenes and just let you roguelike thru the game.

Beat Voice of Cards. It’s pretty Yoko Taro. Near enough, maybe not worth $40. Could definitely see this being another series added to Square Enix’s stable

Just think about it, what mainline Final Fantasy has the best of the following: Setting: Gaia Main Characters: Steiner, Vivi, Quina Side Characters: Baku, Puck, Doctor Tot Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW3QK6CTg2g Minigames: Chocobo Hot and Cold, Tetra Master Bosses: Ozma, Ark, Black Waltz Trio

WotL feels like someone else was trying to do what Alexander O. Smith did with Vagrant Story, FFXII, and Tactics Ogre: LUCT but swinging too hard and ending up with something overwrought and not as successful.

“blame yourself or god” sounds like hes making a snappy one liner while “its your birth and faith that wrong you, not i” sounds like hes sympathizing with her so even that line is better in the remake

jokes posted:One of the first things worth mentioning about this title, is that it is the first ever "Direct Sequel" in the main series (the next would be FF13-2, critically panned and frankly just not a good game) Why ya gotta make me regret my choices like this. You're terribly wrong on both counts. XIII-2's metacritic score is 79/100 which I don't think meets any definition of "panned by critics." Also notable is that this is much higher than LR's rating which is 66/100. I still remember when XIII-2 first came out and the heaps of praise it got for fixing XIII's many, many problems. Definitely an awesome game, one of the best in the series, and absolutely as deserving of a proper spot in the OP as certain other, much worse sequels.

XIII-2 contains Academia 400AF and therefore I must give it the lowest possible score a Final Fantasy game can get: "wait for sale"

I really think LR’s specious connection to FFXIII is because of that one dude who was in love with his creation, Lightning, and wanted to dress her up. LR is a good game

If you think he didn't pull out his phone and start blasting some buttrock after saying that line, you're just wrong.

Been playing X-2 and it's amazing. It's got a system using the airship map UI where you can capture enemies and use them in your party, replacing party members based on the size of the enemy. My first try I captured a huge fuckin' dragon on Besaid and replaced my whole party with it through the second area.

I suspect that Delita is not meant to be read as sympathizing with Agrias, or any member or employ of a royal family.

FFT feels very melancholy to me. Something about the sounds, the muted colors, the relatively subdued music for the random battles, it's always raining, the deaths are more intense because it's always stabs to the gut and stuff.

The original japanese line is "Sorry. If you're going to bear a grudge, take it up with yourself or God." It's one of the only cases where something in FFT's original translation actually resembles the intent, though it's not nearly as terse as they made it sound in English.

It is easily the best setting in a Final Fantasy. Lindblum, Cleyra, Village of Dali, Lifa Tree, and Burmecia? Come on.... The entire mist concept and the creatures it creates is really cool.

My problem with Gaia is how barren and empty it is outside of the Mist Continent. The Iifa Tree has good atmosphere, and so does Oeilvert and Ipsen's Castle, but there is basically no life anywhere outside of the Mist Continent, just dungeons. It was a common complaint I have with FFVIII. This huge world and everything is crammed onto one continent for the most part.

Blockhouse posted:The original japanese line is "Sorry. If you're going to bear a grudge, take it up with yourself or God." I still flip back and forth on this line compared to the PSP translation. The PS1 line does sound more like Delita in my head. PS1: Don't blame us. Blame yourself or God. PSP: 'Tis your birth and faith that wrong you, not I. There are some lines in the PSP translation that just sound like they went to far, but there are solid improvements as well. "You think to save a princess from a burning tower. In truth, you would but set her on a higher floor. There is only one person who can truly save her. And that is what I mean to do. " "All of them swept up in a mighty current, a current they cannot see or feel... I simply swim against it. Nothing more."
