It's my favorite FF accessory. I have 3 of them, and 1 of them I got literally like 2 hours into the game, somehow? But it's sick. I am now playing as solo Celes feeding fish to Cid to keep him from dying I guess. it's tight

Final Fantasy is about never giving into despair, even in the face of death.

FF6 and Bravely if you beat it.

People in Japan seem to generally love FF4 the most and hate FF6. Probably because FF4 is completely 100% railroaded and you can't even choose your party, while FF6 has a ton of characters to choose from and the whole World of Ruin thing so you can take on challenges in any order. Just from reading that FF6 sounds a lot more fun, right? Not to Japan.

Look, I live in Japan and am really big on Japanese everything, don't like Xbox and all that stuff. But I just can't even begin to understand this one.

A lot of characters were changed a lot in translation. Kefka is supposed to be a pretty basic villain in the Japanese version and the negative reception of him prompted the translation to change him drastically.

I've never saved Cid I couldn't figure out how to. I would feed him fish and then he died.

I remember reading that the slow-moving fish actually kill him faster, and you need the really fast ones that are a pain in the rear end to catch to actually heal him. Unless you get really emotional about fictional characters' lives just give him the slow fish because that scene is better anyway.

you can look at the description of the fish in the RARE section of your inventory and it tells you what kind of fish. When I had a choice I tried to only feed him Yummy Fish and Just a Fish because the other ones seemed to make him more sick. I think the faster they are in the water, the better they are for Cid

But I thought they liked Romancing SaGa? Unless that's a totally separate fanbase.

really enjoying this play thru of ffvi. I never finished the game as a kid and I'm determined to do it this time.

also reading about all the final Fantasy xv dlc and updates makes me want to play that again. I thought the base game was fun as heck

Also one of the stadium announcers is Tom Kenny from Mr Show and it's insanely jarring to hear him saying RPG town name nonsense. This game owns.
