Oftimes I think about how, on the first video broadcast decades, Quistis tells Squall that has permission to deviate from his mission parameters and save her.

Meowywitch posted:is it an officially licensed product? Yep! Part of NTT's licensed series from the mid-90s, so things that definitely got access to art/planning docs and had a review pass by Square. There's rather a lot of writing on the JP wiki at https://wikiwiki.jp/ffdic/%E6%9B%B8%E7%B1%8D/%E3%80%90NTT%E5%87%BA%E7%89%88%E3%80%91 about the whole series, including lists of where that review process broke down. shoeberto posted:Was this a Japanese thing with the original release or something with FFA? OG, it's dated '92/11/20 so actually a couple weeks before as a hype-builder. (It kept selling even after, though, the printing date of my copy was '93/2/12.)

Headmaster Cid is a great man! The game told me so many times. Sure, it showed me the opposite every single time he was around, but you know. If only this was a WRPG and I could have truly sided with NORG. NikkolasKing fucked around with this message at 16:52 on Oct 30, 2023 |

To be fair to FF8 Cid: Cid did not set out to create an army of mercenaries. He knew that Squall was destined to defeat a sorceress so he set out to create a support structure for that, but he had no money so he had to ally with Norg. The plot makes it pretty clear the current state of Garden was not actually his choice. NORG had all but usurped power from him and if you talk to the various NPCs and such it becomes clear that Norg's employees all treat Cid like absolute poo poo and Cid's power basically revolves around training SeeD and nothing else. Cid's issue is that he has almost no information besides "Squall is destined to defeat an evil sorceress" and the best he can do is try to arrange things so he has the highest possible chance of success, so the literal only thing he knows is that Squall needs to be prepped for battle.

My favorite thing about NORG is how he explains his fight gimmick to you.

FF8 would have been better when it was actually revealed that Squall would have to defeat the sorceress... in Triple Triad. *Shuffle and Boogie plays in stereo HD as Ultimecia sets up Random/Plus/Same/Elemental/Sudden Death*

Endorph posted:i think plenty of young people are into final fantasy This was something I was thinking while playing FF16... much of my love for the franchise was cemented in childhood memories of playing 4 and 6, and although those stories went to dark places it was still pretty broad in its approach and also abstracted enough in pixel art. I wonder what kids today think, like if FF16 is the one that comes out when they're 8 or 9, for some reason I think starting with a kid graphically splattered with his disemboweled father's blood and then being mercilessly beaten to death in a three minute sequence is a bit different, also the plot's focus on geopolitics and grim brutality of everyday life was interesting to me as an adult, but...

Yeah, there’s something to someone’s first FF being the one that kinda sets expectations. VIII was my first, so FF feels most “natural” to me when it’s just rolling around gleefully being weird as gently caress.

I think it's worth remembering that it doesn't exist in a vacuum. FF16 is more realistic than FF7 but it's also surrounded by a lot of other things that are as well and which set a baseline.

i mean kids right now are exposed to a lot of incredibly violent content nearly every day because american culture for the most part is insanely libertine about violence. and its not like you need to fully grasp and immerse yourself in every single theme or aspect of a work to enjoy it lol, plenty of people enjoyed final fantasy tactics or 12 as children without getting every nuance.

also if ff6 had turbo realistic graphics it would basically read pretty similarly to ff16. celes's intro scene is her getting beaten while tied up, there's a scene where she attempts suicide, the entire world gets blown up, there's a scene of cyan's family slowing dying in front of him, etc. obviously there are differences in tone but its not like ff16 is the first ff ever to have dark content in it.

Realistic FF6 would be just like loving horrifying. The opening would be these horrible metal monsters burning through the helpless defenders of a village, a glassy-eyed Terra at the controls.
