Harrow posted:Final Fantasy XII story stuff that I'm trying to refresh my memory on. On one hand, based purely on how historical conqueror steppe nomads tend to go its probably easier to identify who isn't related to Raithwall. The point of that scene is different though the full context isn't clear until later when Vaan puts it together. The occuria are just looking for someone who will use the shards to do terrible things to put history in motion the way the Occuria want. At that point both Vaan and Ashe are viable candidates. Soon, when Vaan rejects his revenge quest they'll stop appearing to him and he'll discuss that with Ashe at the Steppe village which is like, the single most important plot scene in the game and why Vaan is not just replaceable in the story like people claim

Last Celebration posted:FFX doesn’t have a game-spanning scavenger hunt minigame though? I feel like id probably have replayed it by now if it did… It does, it just makes it a huge pain in the rear end to participate in if you miss it. FFIX may be just as good as all other final fantasies but chocobo hot and cold leaves me without the hot

And if you get certain classes, like samurai, you can beat absolutely anything the game throws at you with zero thought required. I'd still not recommend a 4JF for a first playthrough.

Lady Radia posted:Is there a preferred way to play FFT that avoids some of its warts? Is just War of the Lions solid enough? War of the Lions will improve the game a lot outside of missing the few accidentally really really good dialog everyone has already quoted at you*. It will not fix the game's actual, like, mechanics so you know still expect to either use a guide or get ready to get kidney punched over and over again starting by the second or third battle as you either fall in love with the obtuse mechanics or drop out. *To be clear, you will want a patched version of War of the Lions if using the PSP as a base, the Phone Version runs fine Note: I think FFT is a bad game and one of the bottom to carry the branding because its systems are such a mess and its difficulty so uneven so you probably take that into account as you weigh my thoughts

Note: Getting Ninjas is still a grind and there are multiple fights in the game where your ninjas can get absolutely wrecked before they can get anywhere near the enemy or the AI decides it would like you to just lose now, thank you.

Its not a mandatory level requirement but in Dragon Quest 8 fighting the jester boss before and after hitting level 25 is like beyond told to cross a field covered in barbwire on foot and then being told to do that but you can now ride in a tank.

FF12 is not a very good game, but its not the worst Final Fantasy, which we all agree is Final Fantasy Tactics, which itself, is better than Baldur's Gate.

Bardeh posted:In FFXII, how long is it until my melee characters (most of my party) can actually do anything except auto attacks? I'm around 4 hours in, just went into the Mines, and apart from Steal and First Aid it's just auto attacks. I have been to the Techniks shops but couldn't see anything. Uh... I've got some bad news for you vis a vis techniks and how often you use them. Melee people melee, its DnD 1.0 here in Ivalice Edit: I seriously think the only technik I ever used was the one that lets melee attacks go long distance for the few flying bosses in the game, and even then late game you can just magic or use ranges melee Barudak fucked around with this message at 20:15 on Nov 21, 2021 |

Bardeh posted:Really? No cool AoE attacks, stuns, knockdowns, stuff like that? Right now I have my gambits set up so that Fran (White Mage) autoattacks and heals at <50%, and everyone else is just 'autoattack nearest baddie'. I have bought a ton of gambits at the shop but I don't really see much need to play around with the system yet. I get that I'm still early in the game, but I thought things would start to open up a little by now. I have good news and bad news. The bad news is, no, thats pretty much it. The good news is, congrats you've already got your optimal for 90% of the game gambit setup!

Bardeh posted:Oh. Well this is kind of a bummer because I've been enjoying the story, the setting and the world quite a lot. I've been...enduring the combat in the hope that it would start to get more interesting. If on PC there is 0 harm in cheating yourself max stats+esuna and just automating your way to the end. The story is surprisingly neat but theres not much and it gets s t r e t c h e d to support the gameplays slow pace

Pixel Remaster 3 is the only one I can bring myself to recommend since all the others are missing chunks of content.

# ¿ Nov 24, 2021 08:54 |

Its content thats all (except FFIV) optional end/postgame stuff. Theres no reason not to include it (again arguable for ffiv as it actually changes the plot) and they've been part of the game longer than they haven't (again except ffiv) so its also sort of a baseline expectation for me across the many rebuys I've done over the years. Its also ruder than hell they appeared to have delisted the non-pr versions so if you did want them and don't already own them now you can't have them.

jokes posted:Is Fantasian any good? And by good I mean “like a final fantasy” Short Answer: No Long Answer: The 7th Guest and I both played through the game at the same time and its perplexingly bad. It is bad in a way that is carefully, handcraftingly and lovingly designed to be bad and its all the more infuriating because it hides its true nature behind about 40% of the games total content. It is a strange game where I absolutely hope it was a success but that the lead designers and producers don't get invited back for the sequel.

Elephant Ambush posted:OK I hit a wall in FF5. Twintania. gently caress this boss. If throwing money at it or reflecting its own spells into its big stupid face isn't an option, you can also just stall until it goes into gigaflare mode and then spam odin and other instant death moves on it. Note: all mu advice for the game is going to hinge on throwing money at it because by god did I rely on samurai

multijoe posted:It's weird Blue Dragon & Lost Odyssey are still stuck in XB360 purgatory, they'd both be obvious candidates for remasters and Lost Odyssey particularly for all intents and purposes is a genuine Final Fantasy with the numbers filled off As I feel compelled to point out every time, they absolutely aren't as they're playable on 3/4ths of Microsoft's consoles and got slightly tweaked updated versions (removing disc changes). Since they're partnership it might be hard to make them streamable in the future to PC, but its not impossible that this will happen too for PC/mobile device only holdouts.

Twelve by Pies posted:One important thing to note about Old: it can be cured with Esuna, but curing it won't restore your stat loss. And if you're good at putting out big damage numbers, then yeah, Old isn't usually a problem. The one fight where Old is usually a major issue is Soul Cannon. The Launches will inflict Old with their missiles, if you don't have any lightning skills or weapons to take Soul Cannon out quick, you'll see your damage drop pretty significantly over the course of the fight. Let me tell you about how money solves literally all your problems in ffv... Edit: Thats the boss that taught me samurais were extremely good
