The variety of accents in this game are great, i must say. far better variety than your bog-standard vancouver/l.a.-area sci-fi channel quality.

also but fuck me is there a lot of Star Wars in this game, either directly or thru a co-mingling of sources
― kingfish, Wednesday, 11 March 2009 02:20 (fifteen years ago) link
Jeez, even the Han Solo character is a bit more of a dandy than one would otherwise hope for
― kingfish, Wednesday, 11 March 2009 05:01 (fifteen years ago) link
man, there is a FUCKTON of Star Wars in this

Just played the first Dr Cid boss fight, and was struck by how good the fight music was.
Then i remembered that it sounds almost like the battle overture from Wrath of Khan, which was some of the greatest fight music evah.

altho reading this thread from the top im thinking maybe i never gave it a fair chance i remember thinking it was pointless in the worst way but maybe its worth replaying

well i'm deeply loving persona 4 and want to line up another one of these jrpg nonsense games but can't decide if this is going to be horribly over-generic or not.
i have actually thought about buying ffx and ffx-2 as well but that would totally about scratching an itch i really ought not to bother with as opposed to playing games that are 'fun' or 'interesting' or that i 'enjoy'
― thomp, Tuesday, 31 March 2009 17:41 (fifteen years ago) link
i really really dug the combat in this game and the way that dungeons sorta "felt." a lot more like an MMO but instead of friends playing, you get peopel you cna program to not suck.

Surprisingly, yes. The fact that each character doesn't have the usual jrpg single-weapon-class slot ilwas a great idea. I wish they had a more pcrpg way of tracking all the miniquests you get involved with

I'm wondering if i'm going to be able to stick with this long enough to beat it. I'm at the 'tower on a distant shore' level.

Carl Agatha needs to finish playing this. I enjoy watching her play it, although I think it would drive me crazy to play it.

10hrs into final fantasy x and can't bring myself to stomach it any longer
never beat ff7, either. 30hrs and got sick of the whole thing. these games are fucking commitments.
― kelpolaris, Saturday, 31 March 2012 04:19 (twelve years ago) link
on the commitment titch... i was just thinking today abt how in every one of those kinda games anyone who is ever in your party EVER at the end is ON YOUR TEAM 4 LIFE & how ridiculously COMMITTED all of these people who shouldn't be committed to SAVING THE WORLD are to saving the world -- where are the games where someone joins for a scene or an act or whatever? aside from saga series?

Booooo, they pulled a Last Guardian and delayed so long they skipped the PS3 altogether.

I've been playing the Zodiac Age edition on Switch and I'm mesmerized. I thought maybe all Final Fantasies after FF7 were complete trash but this one is really fun and engrossing.

i think the few people who made it to 13-3 really liked it but its a character action game?

I gave up on FFX, I kept getting mad at it for being stupid. I might pick it back up once I'm done with XII and VII (which I played before but never finished).
― trapped out the barndo (crüt), Tuesday, 13 October 2020 03:33 (three years ago) link
I might revisit 9 too but I dunno if the Switch version is any good?

10 seemed very railroaded to me but maybe i didn't get far enough into it
― trapped out the barndo (crüt), Tuesday, 13 October 2020 04:37 (three years ago) link
a lot of them are railroaded for the first half until you get the airship or w/e
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 13 October 2020 12:40 (three years ago) link
first half linear, second half open world / revisiting earlier areas with new purpose is a pretty standard rpg structure
