Is there any equivalent to "gently caress" in Japanese. I've heard "kuso" ranges from "drat" to "poo poo" in terms of severity based on context.

I don't believe so, a friend that used to live in Japan talked about seeing Goodfellas in the theaters there and how weird it was to hear the full English dialogue while the subtitles aligned more to an edited for TV version.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


"gently caress" has lost a lot of impact in online vernacular anyway, nowadays the equivalent swear word would be more like "noob."

See I never got why fan translations opted to go for excessive swearing. Like nobody is ever going to say "well the engine got hosed up in the landing" unless it's in their character. Now Cid from FF7 would make sense, but not Setzer.

In WoFF, is there ever a point at which one can take more Mirages no in the party or does a good grinding area opens up? I amass an ever greater amount of Mirages and can't really use them, because the SP gain is a bit paltry and there's little need to use strategic teams, and so I just use mostly the same monsters, since I'd have to level up new ones otherwise.

Edit: so far, the only idea I have is camping by a save crystal in the most high level area and just run in circles, attracting battles and changing the Mirages from the Prism Case as the level curve flattens, but is there a better way? Some XP gain raising accessories, perhaps?

Speaking of WoFF, Balthier is available as free DLC for it atm.

Don't be, it was massively massively disappointing.

As an action game it was pretty fun for the first few hours, but as a final fantasy I might actually rate it below XIII. The story is just a completely unmitigated disaster in every respect.

The four main duders are good but everything else is paper thin.

Yep that is precisely the moment when the game reveals itself to be entirely shallow and pointless.

Its a pretty decent skyrim game but its a pretty bad final fantasy.

FFXV is going to be under construction for a long time. The characters are cool and fishing and cooking with your bros is fun, but after a certain point the plot starts getting real weird and dumb. They are adding new scenarios and have a long term gameplan for the game but FFXV is very much still a work in progress.

Persona 5 is aces though. Pick that up for sure if you have a PS3.

That's because Final Fantasy has been dead since the end of Disc 1 and everything since has been its final fantasy.

Instead of remaking FF7, which already had 3D graphics and FMV and whatnot, I wish they'd remake FF4 again but properly this time, just change it to the 10/12/13/15 modern 3D style with big rear end awesome cutscenes of the giant robot fight and the tank army and oh man that would be so good.

FF7 getting a remake is far more pointless than taking an "old era" game and running it through a "modern game" filter. That would be either really good or a really good trainwreck.

Wouldn't mind if they did that for FF6 either, honestly. Wanna Suplex Doomtrain in glorious 3d
