Innuendo and sex jokes have always been common in Japanese games even back in the Famicom/NES era. Not having something like that is probably the exception rather than the rule when it comes to JRPGs.

Bravely Default had ton of this, but there was one conversation that stood out:

Bravely Default posted:

Ringabel: Rgh! It's hard and massive! How am I supposed to take it out?!

Edea: Don't worry about me. What about you Agnes?

Agnes: Ngh! It's recovery is too swift! Are you ready yet Tiz?

Tiz: Almost... just a little longer...

DeRosso: Seems you're having a rough time of it, eh Ringabel?

Ringabel: Why are-?

Sage: Ho ho, Agnes, we're here to help, my dear

Agnes: Sage!

Tiz: Alright, here we go. Blaze bright!

...

Edea: Yes! That was amazing, Tiz!

Tiz: ...I couldn't have done it without you and Agnes

Agnes: And we wouldn't have lasted without Ringabel's aid

Ringabel: The thanks shouldn't stop here. Don't forget about them

It seemed really out of place for a NES-era game. 6 was incredibly wholesome, and having 4 be the immediate US-prequel to that was unexpected. It wasn't until 7 came around that things like homosexual orgies started happening.

Yes, the game where the barmaid asked Sabin to grab her tits and where Edgar hit on a 10 year old was incredibly wholesome

Did they even take that second one out of the English one I haven't played it in 10 years

Also the legendary Puff Puff technique has been around in Dragon Quest since the first one, which was released in 1986. Originated from Dragon Ball, apparently.

Well it was literally coined by Toriyama himself, he's the creator of Dragon Ball and character designer of Dragon Quest. Also it's a running joke in DQ.



I remember that in III a girl invites you in for some puff-puff and asks you to relax and close your eyes as the screen goes black. After a bit of puffin' you open your eyes and you see her dad, the best puff-puffer in town.


Also as far as sexual acts and their nicknames go, I'm pretty sure Puff Puff barely registers as "pretty weird" even if you don't go outside the US. :v:

14 seems remarkably small. That means there won't even be one from each FF game with we know Ramza is confirmed.

This had better not mean having to buy 30+ DLC characters though.

I'm hoping you get some team synergy bonuses, like having WoL+Bartz+Onion Knight giving some Warriors of Light bonus or something.

There was already 31 people, 32 if you count Feral Chaos, in 012, so assuming they're all returning, that's 18-19 possible new characters. Noctis is most likely in, maybe Stella, and if they want a villain to pair up with the heroes, then chances are what's his bucket from XIV and either Wiegraf, Gafgarion, Vormav, or Delita could be in. Then again, in said perfect world where all this happens, Edgar's also there throwing tools at everyone.

I'm torn between wanting Delita or Wiegraf as the villain for FFT. ON the one hand Delita is the actual foil for Ramza, on the other hand Wiegraf is a bad rear end who I hope would have an amazing EX form.

I hope whoever they pull from FF7 is a cool character like Aeris/th or Cait Sith but I'm pretty sure aside from Cloud and Sephiroth the top contenders would be Vincent since he starred in his own lovely game and the walking blob of breasts that is Tifa who is still inexplicably popular.

"You've all learned something very important here: there are things in this world you just can't change!"
Awhile back I started playing FF7 because I hadn't played it in over a decade and why not, get a fresh view on it. I put it down because I was racing chocobos so I could breed chocobos so I could get Knights of the Round. Last night I picked it up again, realised that was all dumb and useless, and now I'm sailing around picking up ultimate weapons and poo poo. What are some good materia combos that don't involve multiple copies of mastered Knights of the Round? I'm screwing around with 2x-Cut=Steal as Well + Added Effect=Hades, which is pretty sweet. At some point I should probably go for the Final Attack=Phoenix standby.

Also what is the best way to cheese the battle arena, my 14 year old self cries out for vengeance
