PSXOnlineCCC 10/01/18 7:49:13 PM #1:	Kinda craving a JRPG again. Last I played was FFXV which was fun while it lasted but kinda shit in retrospect.

Although it would take way more than an hour to see why it's garbage and why the remake is so much better. --- The force is my ally "If you are tired of fear from links...

_Rinku_ 10/01/18 7:51:59 PM #4:	Yes. It takes a little bit for XII's system to grow on you; I actually hated it at first, but it's now one of my favorite games. <cite>_Rinku_ posted [p:909790146] in Is Final F...

LordFarquad1312 10/01/18 7:58:33 PM #7:	PSXOnlineCCC posted... Can you explain how they're different? You can assign character a class, instead of every character having acces to all the abilities and equipment, making each character feel more unique and necessary. Damage cap either removed or raised to 99,999. You can make the game go x2 or x4 times faster, making traversing through the map and some battles (grinding for example) much more bearable. You can program guest character actions. The PS4 actually has more than 32MB of RAM, so casting end game spells doesn't make it so your characters can't do shit until the animation ends. Quickenings (Limit Breaks) have a separate gauge, so you no longer have to decide between using your kill moves or healing. I'm sure there are more, but those are the main ones for me, I think. --- The force is my ally "If you are tired of fear from links...

_Near_ 10/01/18 7:59:06 PM #8:	I've been trying to get into FF in the past year since I've always hated the games. Only played XV and XII zodiac age so far. Enjoyed both of them. XII was good. There weren't any random encounters so it already starts off good for me. I don't like what they did with magic and always found melee to be better for most things, though I used every class in the game. Some of the characters shine like Balthier, Ashe, and Penelo. Others are pretty bland. The story is fairly standard, but the environments and the world are really cool. The whole Arabian Nights vibe is refreshing and new, and the creatures you fight and meet are interesting. It's a solid game overall. --- https://imgur.com/WyFIJkF This is America, where a lying, cheating degenerate can prosper. <cite>_Near_ posted [p:909790509] in Is Final F...

I think they're usually the charm of FF games that a lot of other games don't really capture for me. 2 party members have no reason to exist, one of them being the main character sadly. The story is a little different than the usual FF, since it revolves around politics and shadowy plots. For what it's worth, I didn't really like the story when it came out, but when I played the remake last year I could tolerate it. The 2 characters I mentioned are still pretty useless in the narrative though. --- The force is my ally "If you are tired of fear from links...
