The movie explains what happened when Insomnia fell, which isn't important. The anime is all about Bro Moments with the Bros, which I am told is the most important part of the game.

Cleretic posted:So my beating the final boss of Dissidia NT with a team consisting of the Emperor, Vayne and Jecht started up a conversation with a friend of mine: I mean, most of the villains in the series have both the desire and the means to destroy reality. I guess if the assumption is that they no longer have those (because they're part of a team to save the world) then it changes things a bit, but most of them are still crazy and dangerous. But within the framework you're presenting, the third member of that trio would have to be Zenos, and mostly for the same reason as the Emperor and Vayne: if he's part of the group who was strong enough to save the world, it lends some credence to the idea that Garlemald should rule the world. He's also a kill-happy psychopath who intentionally kneecaps his own nation's military response in the hopes of creating an opponent powerful enough to challenge him, so one can only imagine what he would be like during peace time.

Zenos during peace time would just be him brutally oppressing random group for no reason in the hopes that they would be pissed off enough to rebel. Picture him just walking into a random home and killing a mother in front of her kid in the hopes that the kid will spend the rest of their life getting strong enough to take revenge.

It is honestly pretty impressive that FFXV is like a 40 hour open world game with sidequests, DLC, multiplayer and multiple endings and yet somehow still feels tremendously unfinished.

I liked Final Fantasy XV, but really reminds me of Xenogears. They are both long game where the first half has a ton of stuff, then the last half just linear and just skipping over set pieces to reach the next dungeon. XV has at least the option to return to the open world segments at anytime by using the dog instead of Fei's narration zone, but yeah...

Well finally made it past chapter 11 in FF13. Back to the plot corridor but now it's just a tremendous slog. Holy poo poo does this game feel padded as all hell and THEN the game starts throwing poo poo like double Humbaba fights at you. Lordy, just let me get to the end already, game.

The only part that felt like padding to me is the maze/gauntlet right before I the final boss. It was dumb and annoying and I couldn't just zip through because my idiot brain needs to go exploring and find all the chests.

Oh look, it's Cocoon but now there's a bunch of pulse monsters! I mean it's interesting at first but it just feels like it went on and on and on with nothing much happening. Maybe it has a lot more to do with the plot of the game being so front loaded and relatively sparse in the back half.

Maybe it has a lot more to do with the plot of the game being so front loaded and relatively sparse in the back half. Personally I liked Chapter 12 since it had a bunch of good encounters and I liked the Proudclad bosses a lot. They are kinda long hallways but that's the norm anyways in the game so it never got to me much. As far as the story goes, the initial cutscene and the general setting are kinda cool, but the cutscenes definitely become draining with Cid being resurrected uselessly or Nora dudes coming back to do basically nothing. DrNutt posted:Afaict it was two dead people but I'm gonna be real honest I have a very tenuous grasp of the plot at this point. You're probably thinking of Yaag Rosch, who LOOKED like he died at the end of Chapter 7 (cause he was shot point blank with that assault rifle and fell backwards in slow-mo with slow ominous music playing, etc). But he's didn't actually die; his datalog entry would've said so like it does for the other characters who died but it just acts like nothing happened, and then he just comes back outta nowhere in Chapter 12. It's really loving dumb I know, and confused me at first, but it's only Cid who gets the dramatic-death-but-is-revived-later-for-no-reason treatment.

See at first I was excited to see the Nora folks because they were people that I actually gave a poo poo about. But then they just hopped back on their space motorcycles and flew away. So uh, great. Maybe it would have been better to actually show them evacuating civilians or something? And yeah, you're right, I was thinking of Rosch. Speaking of which I did not enjoy the Proudclad fights because the game spends a bunch of time impressing how important buffs/debuffs are and then you can't debuff at all and it becomes an annoying battle of attrition and heal checks.

ImpAtom posted:It is honestly pretty impressive that FFXV is like a 40 hour open world game with sidequests, DLC, multiplayer and multiple endings and yet somehow still feels tremendously unfinished. Because, like Xenogears, both games had weird managerial oversight where they peeked out of their office towards the end, went "this isn't done yet? wrap this poo poo up" while the meandering team scrambled to get it done. Then the publisher blames the players for the poor sales. (I realize this doesn't fit to a T but it is seemingly common in development)

Okay well I finally loving beat FF13 and I think the only thing that will satisfy me now is an edit of Barth sinking into the liquid crystal doing the T2 thumbs up.

I played 1-9 with an obsessive fervor and haven't touched the series in a decade. If I wanted to play another FF, should I do 10 or 15?

Rirse posted:Was surprised after seeing her as a dlc character in 13-2 that she just dies in a cutscene rather uneventfully in 13. I believe the reason why she was brought back was because everyone wanted to fight her in 13 and she walked up to start a boss fight before being murdered by the rear end in a top hat we'd fight 4 more times in the game. So they decided to give a real boss fight kind of thing with her in 13-2. Also let them get a use for her model outside of the like 4 cutscenes she was in.

If you want the "oh yeah, this was it was like!" experience to kindle decades-old memories FFX definitely encapsulates that really well and it's available on just about everything ever now with the remasters.
