Final Fantasy IX is the best mainline series FF game. Final Fantasy Tactics is not only the best Final Fantasy overall, but also in the top 10 greatest games of all time. Oh, and Final Fantasy XIV is the best FF MMO.

NikkolasKing posted:You're sabotaging your argument by bringing up Gaia and Tretra Master. It's like me trying to push my case for FFX being the best FF and pointing to lightning dodging as an example of why. Tetra Master was a joke of course, but Gaia? It is easily the best setting in a Final Fantasy. Lindblum, Cleyra, Village of Dali, Lifa Tree, and Burmecia? Come on.... The entire mist concept and the creatures it creates is really cool.

Blockhouse posted:The original japanese line is "Sorry. If you're going to bear a grudge, take it up with yourself or God." I still flip back and forth on this line compared to the PSP translation. The PS1 line does sound more like Delita in my head. PS1: Don't blame us. Blame yourself or God. PSP: 'Tis your birth and faith that wrong you, not I. There are some lines in the PSP translation that just sound like they went to far, but there are solid improvements as well. "You think to save a princess from a burning tower. In truth, you would but set her on a higher floor. There is only one person who can truly save her. And that is what I mean to do. " "All of them swept up in a mighty current, a current they cannot see or feel... I simply swim against it. Nothing more."

Speaking of IX, has anyone played it with the Moguri Mod? https://sites.google.com/view/moguri-mod/home Looks like they increased the details, added widescreen support, and increased the resolution using some AI upscaler. The screenshots look great, but I'm not sure how it is overall from beginning to end.

I don't remember a single piece of music from XII, which makes it the worst FF for music. Even XIII had great music...

Final Fantasy VIII has to be my most undecided in the main series. There are so many things that I like about the game like the junction system, the music, Triple Triad, and the summons. The characters and plot are just so weak, which is weird because the concept of specially trained military students that are sent around the world to be used as weapons is cool, but everything else? The love story is like a glass of room temperature water, mostly due to Squall having the personality of unreinforced concrete. The Laguna parts, while initially interesting due to being an actual good character, falls apart too quickly by the end. The sorcerer from the future that wants to destroy the present is when I throw my hands up and say "ok, that's enough, I just want to go back to playing cards in Balamb Garden". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jho-peCAKs

I'm playing the the original Final Fantasy pixel remaster while I sit in my 7000 queue for FFXIV. The game is actually really good for a 1987 title. I've wanted to play it all the way through ever since I was little, but the slowness always made me drop it. Now with the battle speed up, it's just perfect. It's so funny seeing some of the original monster designs like the Sahagin being mixed in with random creatures they must have just picked out of a hat. "Oh, we need a wolf, and what about a scorpion? Yeah, throw in one of those. And a shark!"

Finished Final Fantasy PR in about 10 hours. Incredible short for a FF game, but I think it's all due to the auto battle and map. Some of the areas must have been a nightmare to navigate without an auto-complete map that is now simply a button press away. Fighter/Monk/WMage/BMage is hilarious, especially at the end of the game where you're doing 1000+ damage per Fighter/Monk, your healer is healing the entire party every turn, and your Black Mage spam casts free Thundaras with Gauntlet, all while my Fighter is taking 1 damage from 90% of the enemies Also, Masamune is better than Excalibur. Inconceivable!

I'm still wondering how they're going to remake the scene in Junon Harbor where Cloud, riding on top of a dolphin, jumps 100ft in the air to land on a steel beam... Had to actually go back and re-remember the scene. It was a beam he landed on. Cardboard Fox fucked around with this message at 14:50 on Dec 9, 2021 |

Look, I know this world has alien moms from outer space, giant robot scorpions with laser tails, and colorful marbles that allow you to cast magic , but I draw the line at unrealistic real-world animal depictions.

There were some people in my FFXIV guild that told me Final Fantasy II PR was the bad one and to skip it entirely. How true is this? I enjoyed FFI PR quite a bit and can't imagine it would be that different. Looks pretty much the same in the steam previews?

Verviticus posted:it was skipped in the list so i ask: whats the most moving/powerful moment in FFT Olan deciding to write about the truth at the end of the game, only to be burned at the stake by the church. The real story doesn't even come out for a few generations after that. I also thought the mini-story about Miluda and the rest of the Death Corpse coming to an end was quite powerful. Still can't decide whether I like Death Corpse or Corpse Brigade better...

Picked up Final Fantasy IV PR and it's a lot better than I remember? Also a lot darker for some reason? I don't know why it seemed more cheery when I was younger.... I actually really like the constant character changes. You don't feel like you have to choose characters to use, otherwise I would end up just using the same party for the whole game.
