here's a good little minidoc about amano and the pixel artist who translated his work to those squat little sprites on the snes. you'll have to turn on closed-captions since it's in japanese.

cause its the most mediocre(still a good game though) but does something different which means it has diehard fans that are extremely loud and will come to throw my family in a wood chipper for writing this post

FF12 is excellent, but it drags in some spots. The game part rules though.

some people don't like the gambit system. some don't like the MMO-esque combat. some don't like that you don't really affect the plot for most of the game, it's just happening elsewhere while you piss around in fields

all of those people are clowns!!!!!! ff12 is good

FF12 has some really cool characters but the lead vaan isn't one of them, otherwise it's a really good game and the zodiac age version with distinct classes fixes the only other issue with og which is that everyone had identical license boards

it's this. most FF games are real drat good. thus when there is one that isn't real drat good it gets real drat divisive.

loving just watched a part I hadn't seen or paid attention to, dude complaining how japanese games treat the player like and idiot and have info popups everywhere explaining everything

and last year Elden Ring comes out and ~western~ devs get insanely angry that people liked a game without a million UI features and tech pop ups. Horizon games not literally having the main character narrating an active boss battle telling you what to do.

My confession is that the only final fantasy games I have played were 6 and crystal chronicles. I only ever had Nintendo consoles as a kid and I've never bothered to go back and try any of the other FF games now that I don't have to beg mom to buy me everything.

It's okay the only Final Fantasy I've played is the weird chocobo mini game collection on the DS. Oh and like half of 14 if it counts.

(I really like 14 it's just insanely time consuming and intimidates me every time I think of going back)

once i had finished with god of war ragnarok it was basically my blueprint for everything games shouldn't do. if someone recommends something a game should do and it makes me think of god of war ragnarok then i reject it outright. a frictionless sphere with the writing of a hallmark original movie, obnoxiously wry meta awareness to taste
