My secret FF confession is that I distinctly remember liking Squall in my last go of FF8. I can't say I relate to his character, but that doesn't stop me from liking Auron.

Curtain Call really is a fantastic game. The DLC even has music from Seiken Densetsu 3. Speaking of SD3, I've been replaying it. God I love the fight against Dangaard (the wind God Beast). Flying on Flammie while High Tension Wire plays is  it's a shame that song isn't in Curtain Call.

quote:With that notion of user feedback in mind, I brought up the iOS and Steam versions of Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI, which are, to put it delicately, not pretty. Although Japanese players seem fine with the games’ new art, North American fans have complained that there is no feasible way to play the better SNES or GBA versions of FFV and FFVI on today’s consoles. I asked if Kitase would consider putting the original versions of both games on modern platforms, and he appeared surprised at the request. ughhhhhhh they think it's what we wanted all this time?

Interesting that the negative reception of the graphics is mostly a NA (and I assume Europe) thing. If the Japanese fanbase don't really care then it's not surprising they kept going for it. And maaaaybe this will be a sign that SE may listen to Western audiences more? Though to be fair I'm pretty sure Western feedback was and is used a lot for FF14 and FF15's development.

If the Japanese fanbase don't really care then it's not surprising they kept going for it. To be clear on this: It's actually not a NA/Europe thing either. There actually is a positive reception to the artwork changes from more casual or younger/newer players. You can see this if you dig through mobile reviews for example, where you'll see people praising how much better it looks or (in the case of things like CT where it isn't touched up) complaining that it hasn't been. It gets a negative response from a specific segment of the fandom for certain but it isn't an overwhelming negative response from all FF fans or all people who purchase FF. Something that looks smooth and 'clean' works better for people who are used to those things even if they look like complete poo poo to a lot of us. For all that we'll post shots of the godawful castle in FF6 or the bad tile laying, a lot of people just don't notice that stuff. There is a serious and negative response to the graphics, don't get me wrong, but it runs into the gap of there being a significant segment of FF's fanbase who are divorced from traditional gamer stuff so it isn't necessarily overwhelming.

I doubt it it means there's anything different in dynamics. It reminds me of how there was a big bug in the PS3 port for KH2 that only got hotfixed for the PS4 release because a random speedrunner showed it at a live demo to some SE guys at PAX. Meaning that this was just a lucky coincidence of meeting some execs who can (theoritically) do something and not get ignored by normal PR guys.

They do what they can in FF14, but they are still somewhat hamstrung by everything needing to go through the community team due to the language barrier. Still though, I can only assume they are listening since the last numbers I saw pegged NA as the biggest playerbase with Europe very close behind and Japan a fairly distant third.

They do a lot of western reach-out for FFXIV, but a lot of that may just Yoshida wanting an open MMORPG development process. That said the English Localization lead is also a key Lore writer on the development team, so a lot of the English "localization" is baked right into the game world like the lyrics of "Metal" being in gobbietalk.

Yeah, and remember that the story parts were the worst bit of the BD demo, but ended up being fine in the final product. I'm sure they'll be better when the game comes out. Of course it's unlikely that I'll get it since I still don't have enough reason to buy a Switch.

The dynamic cutscenes of FF4, featuring characters occasionally jumping, looking at the camera, and spinning in circles. God, Final Fantasy is such a forerunner of cutscene and gameplay dynamism and direction.

God, Final Fantasy is such a forerunner of cutscene and gameplay dynamism and direction. To be fair, the puppet animation of the later sprite FFs and the early 3D ones were really impressive at conveying a lot of feeling with very little. FF4 through FF9. From 10 onwards they were more like other videogames, more detailed but also more realistic and less left for your imagination to fill in.

They're talking back and forth, but aside from the relatively static positioning, they still animate about as much as older FF games did.

I have a super specific question about FFX, since I am finally playing it in glorious HD and am at the point of doing side quests near the end of the game: who are some really good defenders I can get for my Blitzball team? Jassu is great but Botta got less useful over time and is a liability now. Right now my team is Tidus, Brother, Letty, Jassu, Botta and Durren. I went like fifteen games unscored upon but Botta sucks so bad now I am giving up 2-3 goals sometimes.

When I did FFX HD platinum a few months ago I used Tidus & Wedge as forwards, Brother as center, Ropp & Kyou as defenders, and Jumal as goalie. I was only going for Wakka's ultimate weapon so I abused reset data & enter/exit blitzball to play as few games as possible. Team was easy mode at low level.

If you're just starting, pick up Zalitz as a defender. He's good up until like level 20 then gets outclassed - get Ropp. Wedge starts off good as a forward then starts getting really good defense stats, so that switch him over then (make sure you give him marks so he learns tackle moves) and grab Vilucha as a forward at that point. Either get Brother or Tatts at midfield. I like Tatts personally because he has insanely high energy and passing. Nimrook is the best goalie, but you need to get him off the Psyches, so grab Kyou or Miyu in the meantime then when his contract expires, do the reset trick until they decide not to re-sign. Edit: this lineup will get you through the majority of blitzball without having to change it: LF: Tidus RF: Vilucha MF: Tatts / Brother LD: Ropp RD: Wedge KP: Nimrook seiferguy fucked around with this message at 18:14 on Sep 14, 2017 |
