I am partial to the one FFX song that Limewire tags told me was sung by Rammstein. It goes very well with Serj Tankians cover of the Zelda theme.

The only Final Fantasies I've legit enjoyed were XII and XV. I hate the typical JRPG turn based combat most of them had but enjoyed the real time stuff in those two. Also helps that the main cast aren't all a bunch of moody assholes. Sure, they turn into a bunch of moody assholes at the end of XV but at that point the game had owned it.

That version of Chrono Trigger might be one of the worst ports ever made. The game is so slow it takes TEN WHOLE SECONDS to open the pause menu. Changing your equipment is something you legitimately have to weight against the time commitment. And all for gameplay that’s identical to FF4.
As a child I still loved it.

But really none of the FFs hold up. Boring repetitive gameplay built around grinding random battles and selecting attack. The pre rendered backgrounds of the ps1 entries look good but are grossly inferior for actually navigating and playing in when compared to its all 3D environment using contemporaries like Spyro and Mario.

The PRs are basically just autobattlers. Generally outside of healing you just let your dudes attack, only selecting commands for bosses. If you're selecting attack on randos over and over or manually grinding you're a loving maroon

even the later ps3 models cut out the ability to play ps2 discs for cost saving reasons
before that point it basically had a whole separate ps2 inside

The PS3 went from "You can install linux and it's got a whole PS2 inside!" hardware emulation to "the software emulation is just as good, 80% of the library is playable!" to "lmao gently caress it who cares"

Learning how to play the game on a basic level isn't that difficult. It only gets complicated when you start doing the really complex poo poo, like weaponizing vulcanos or or diverting rivers into an oncoming enemy army.

It's a good thing the equipment in chrono trigger is a pointless vestigial system
