Wasn’t there a jrpg where an entire sidequest just…wasn’t translated? I’d say that’s the worst translation job.

I may be in the minority, but Giruvegan through the Great Crystal is one of my favorite sequences in the entire series. And yes, I unironically love the “lol gently caress you” map of the crystal the game gives you.

So you can download it on iOS right now, but it seems you can’t start a new game yet. BUT the music player works, and my god. It is wonderful.

It’s amusing that even Balthier is confused as who the main character is.

Controversial opinion that is possibly bad: I think the PRs are so far the definitive versions of the games and are generally excellent. Also, I never liked any of the bonus content and thought they were cheap tack-ons onto already complete games in order to sell the various ports over the years. Going back and just releasing the OG versions is cool and good.

Thankfully I haven’t run into anything buggy in 5PR as of yet, but I’m not surprised it shipped with some jankiness. It’s probably the most internally complex game of the batch, right?

Yeah Balthier is the most egregious one for me. His voice, mannerisms, and worldview scream jaded 30-something.

FFV is the breeziest, chill game in the series. Just a dude and his gal pals (and Galuf) learning increasingly ludicrous ways of killing things while they try and take down a Power Rangers villain. It’s fantastic.

This made me wonder if there were Japanese guides to the early FFs, and sure enough there were. I might try and snag a few.

My first time playing vanilla XII I started the final battle with only Balthier alive, and somehow was able to revive everyone and take him down. Everyone was about level 40 and armed with axes, because I thought that was funny at 18.

Anybody else having weird frame rate issues for 5PR on iOS, specifically iPad? They really only crop up on the world map for me, and it’s the only one of the PRs so far that I’ve seen that does it - just slightly stuttery, and a full 1-2 second pause when getting the airship out of the Vault.

FF but literally no commands work. The game soft locks in the very first battle. The game is lauded as an artistic meta-commentary on the futility of perceived choice in gaming.

You can always just change it n the config menu whenever instead. I…didn’t even realize that was a thing either. Lmao at menu options as spells. Gimme that level 5 “Return to Title Screen”.

Yeah, I always assumed it’s something like if the USA were part of an FF world map, there would only be NYC, Miami, Denver, and LA. With maybe something like Gary, Indiana being the token hilariously dilapidated hellhole town.

I want them to faithfully recreate the Circle of Sages at Crescent Lake. Same character model for each one, just chilling in a massive circle. No one questions why they all have the same name and voice.
