>>729348165is this more palatable for you?
>>729348618No, rage comics are
>>729348096>>729348618
>>729348909This pic aint true, i remember rage comics all the way back in 2009, which were the proto jaks, i dont think the person who made this image ever experienced how it was like to have 4chan ocs
>>729348909Did you know that all of that stuff on the right is against 4chan's rules? If you posted it on a law & order board or in the good /vg/ general you'd be banned. Many might not be aware given the absolute state of /v/'s moderation
Been a long, LONG time since I've seen this format.
why do so many brainlets get filtered by 8
I went back to play FFVI and it's considerably worse then I remember. I get why I liked it at the time but Kefka sucks ass as a plot device and half the cast has absolutely nothing going on
>>729349635Nobody is getting filtered, your game is just tedious and they forgot to make the villain have a backstory or any motivations
>>729348096>>729348618The 8 years of these games being released, holy shit some of the best games ever produced. How did Square clearly lose so much talent that gave a shit about the games they made?
>>729349707>your gameI didn't make it, you tribalistic fucking imbecile.
>>729348909I think the difference is that modern memes have more of an agenda posting to it, even a lot of zoomers post "Agenda" to it, so it just feels a bit forced and phony.It doesn't help that zoomers like to portray themselves as the yes chad and other masculine figures but don't really compare that much IRL
>>729349762My point stands. Junction sucks, Ultimecia sucks, the entire game past disc 1 is spineless as fuck, they didn't know what to do with Seifer and it shows, they forgot to finish Quistis' character arc, the orphanage plot twist is impossibly fucking retarded and god is Cid a massive waste of potential.
>>729348096Tactics is garbage just by virtue of it being an srpg.
>>729349858your point is just your pleb opinion
>>729349820I think naked agendaposting (slander/potential man/etc.) is the funniest meme to come out of the new internet. When you're just being completely sincere about "I don't give a fuck about facts, I just want to talk shit about someone I hate and glaze the guy I like" you have room to be much funnier about it
>>729349707>they forgot to make the villain have a backstory or any motivations>Nobody is getting filtered
>>729350048R=U literally doesn't make any sense by the rules of the game. For it to happen the entire ending has to be a lie, Rinoa didn't get to be happy with Squall, everyone has to fail her and she has to become evil. All of this has to happen offscreen and she's also got to invent immortality, also offscreen.I am a good writer and this is a good twist, btw.
>>729350048>retard sees character mirroring and being foils to each other and thinks this means they literally the same person
>>729350151Yes.
>>729349732Old games are notorious for being soulful and that's not a meme!Old games > modern games.
>>729349424huh, yeah, it's been like 10 yearsin fact, the fuck happened to templates anyway? last time i saw one was during the TLOU2 shit
>>729350196This one doesn't work because Seifer doesn't even come close to cashing in the check of being billed on. The front screen, dude never even comes close to being Squall's foil. He's just some asshole from school.
>>729348096I dont know which of these are better than the others based on the imagea beyond 8 being just okay
>>729348909Wtf is that blue girl sonic with the star? That is so surreal to see, but i dont recall what it is from
>>729348909Bleach and Naruto ending caused this.
Only retards think 8 was tedious. You can literally break the game in a few hours.
>>729348096Nobody thought 7 was a perfect game except people whose literal first game was FF7That shit was trash
>>729350110Rinoa becomes evil before the events of the game, Ultimecia's actions leads to the events of the game, and as a result the Rinoa in our party never becomes evil. Immortality doesn't have to be a factor as we're never given Ultimecia's age. Adel was able to survive under stasis in space for around 20 years. This alone proves a sorceress can survive under bizarre conditions near indefinitely.
I'm tired of talking about FFs in /v/ because many anons have wrong opinions and didn't know how to play the games.7 is the best, followed by 5, 8 and 10. Then come 4, 6 and 9. The reason is player agency and customization. 4, 6 and 9 are not bad games. 7, 5, 8 and 10 are simply better.
>>729350830>Rinoa becomes evil before the events of the game, Ultimecia's actions leads to the events of the game, and as a result the Rinoa in our party never becomes evil. Time travel in FF8 operates under stable time loop rules. What happened cannot not happen, and changing it only makes it happen in the first place>immortality doesn't have to be a factor as we're never given Ultimecia's ageWe are explicitly told she comes from the far future, dipshit. For Rinoa to get there she needs to just figure it out offscren and we are told sorceresses have normal human lifepsans in Ultimania.>Adel was able to survive under stasis in space for around 20 years. This alone proves a sorceress can survive under bizarre conditions near indefinitelyShe was kept in stasis by a good gigantic fucking high tech apparatus that was never anything she did by herself.
>>729350946>pretends to care about customization>ignores 12
>>729351043I dropped 12. It just didn't have the same feel anymore. Same with 13. I did like 13's battle theme and Sunleth Waterscape and sung Chocobo song
>>729350048Shit was debunked 25 years ago and no, them vaguely backtracking recently in some vain attempt to drum up interest in the game doesn't change anything.
I played 1 and 2 and 3 on nes/snes.. mystic quest (shit but fun for 3 hours). then ff7 but never got past probably 1/20 of it. 8 and 9. played 10 until after the soccer game or wtv it is. want to play and finish 7 and 10.but i never beat 1 2 or 3 watched my cousin for like 3-4 days straight play and beat that shit. he was good.8 is better than 9. but both are long. 9 looks better. gameplay are about the same as in the same amount of fun. i also like 8's art style also not saying its worse than 9 really. but 8 has a better story. its almost like disney started to peep in on 9, but then disappear. the more realistic characters made the story seem better. and its more in depth on 8 at least form what i remember
>>729350946Kill yourself.
>>729351596No. I'm buying FF7 Remake Part 3 on launch and can't die before having played it.
>>729348909>Pessimism bad>Nihilism bad>Optimism (evendoe it's a lie) le good
>>729351004>She was kept in stasis by a good gigantic fucking high tech apparatus that was never anything she did by herself. So what? We're told Ultimecia uses Odine's technology, why couldn't she have used the prison as well?>We are explicitly told she comes from the far future, dipshit.That's just Laguna's conjecture. How the hell could any of them know for sure? When the player actually goes there it doesn't look as far into the future as his dialogue suggests, and you can even find the card queen there still alive.
>>729352349>So what? We're told Ultimecia uses Odine's technology, why couldn't she have used the prison as well?So she'd... freeze herself in time for god knows how long, in agonizing full awareness of it all, for absolutely no fucking reason, since her entire goal is to return in time anyway?
>>729352349>That's just Laguna's conjecture. How the hell could any of them know for sure?Rinoa would know, because she was in her head, and one would probably notice and go "wait, is she literally me????"
>>729348096these comics were always cringe shit beloved by annoying faggots with safe normalfag taste, chads and 'jaks do not make them retroactively goodHERB
>>729352349>alternate timeline evil Rinoa trapped herself in a torture device for decades so she could go back in time to the time before she was trapped in the torture device so she could go back in time to relive memories she never lived in the first place with a person she never knew in the timeline
>>729352445Maybe she was tricked into it in a similar fashion as Adel. I'm just saying Rinoa could realistically live past 100 years old given the setting's tech.>>729352530Rinoa is retarded so she didn't noticeUltmecia forgot.... somehow...
>>729352662The thing with R=U is that it requires you to bend over backwards with character motivations, with the setting metaphysics and with the themes of the story, and all for what? So you can cover your ears and go "lalalalala I can't hear you" to not face the obvious fact Ultimecia is a dogshit villain?
>I think the game would be improved if Julia's daughter was killed by Laguna's son after spending centuries going insane and being lonely and miserable>it'd be the perfect ending to a story about Laguna and Julia being united through their children and Squall ceasing to be lonely and miserable>Ellone fails, Squall fails, Laguna fails, and Julia's memory is desecrated, nothing good happens to anyone>and all of this is predicated on offscreen developments that are not hinted at or aknowledged by anyone>I am a good writer
r is u is fact and it's been confirmed several times over
FFVIII's story is half asses but the game is a masterpiece in comparison to aby game after X.
>>729352792Well Ultimecia is hot so we have to grasp at any nonsensical straw we can to keep her relevant.And it worked. R=U dominates discourse regarding the game in both Japan and the west.
>>729353235I don't care what one guy in the development team says, R=U is retarded and doesn't make sense.When a villain is shallow, we used to call that "bad writing" instead of coming up with conspiracy theories as to how it's totally genius guys, you just gotta look at this shit that is never stated ingame and these interviews outside the game
FF7 and FFT are good. FFX has a good battle system.The rest are varying degrees of mediocre.
>>729348096ff8 being ok is still better than a lot of rpgs especially modern ones
>>729353364FF is like bottom of the barrel for rpgs.
>>729353312how doesnt it make sense
>>729353364Your average RPG maker RPG shits on FF8 by being playable without hours of navigating menus and having a sensical progression system where you can't fuck yourself out of an equipment slot because you didn't spam Draw on every single boss in the game for hours on end
>>729353476Time travel operates by stable time loop mechanics, so it would require Rinoa to become evil offscreen, live into the far future and then go back in time since no alternate timelines exist like R=U fags like to claim. Everyone has to fail her, she has to act out of character and the happy ending has to be a complete lie for it to work.In addition to this, there's also >>729353058.
>>729353516I beat ff8 when I was 6 or 7. how the fuck are you getting filtered by an equipment slot
Quick rundown of a few Nojima FF games>FF7 - The protagonist is a schizo who lost his memories, the final boss is a hero he looks up to>FFX - The final boss is the father of the protagonist>FFX2 - The final boss is more or less protagonist's evil AU boyfriend>FF8 - The final boss is a random woman Squall has no connection to?
>>729353516>>729353423I'll admit 8 is carried by its ost, but if you're gonna be spending 30+ hours playing a game the music better be good and pretty much nothing is as good as FF in that regard.
>>729353626I beat FF8 and it's still dogshit. Being able to miss on 90% the fucking mechanics of the game by not wanting to Draw every enemy to exhaustion is miserable, the Junction system incentivizes you to hoard spells like a dragon since casting any of them will actively make you weaker, and the game's implementation of level scaling on a JRPG is easily top 10 most retarded game mechanics of all time. I can beat a game and still think it sucks shit.
>>729353651I mean yeah that's the case. Ultimecia isn't a very good villain.
>>729353651Squall created Ultimecia by the way timeloops work, anon.
>>729353749Yeah, but the spider tank though.
>>729349656Kefka is a purity of concept. He's not a plot device.
>>729354108Disc 1 of FF8 is the best Final Fantasy game of all time.Unfortunately the game keeps going.
>>729353749>Casting life reduced my max HP goes down by 0.18% this is triggeringYou have autism>I have to draw from every mob instead of checking one off bosses GFsYou have autism
>>729353717>nothing is as good as FF in that regard.I completely disagree.
>>729354179Kefka is a plot device. His role is to pull some shit out of his ass every time it looks like the heroes are going to win.We're going to the Esper world? Actually this was all part of my plan. We're freeing the Espers? Actually I spontaneously developed the Instantly Kill Espers Spell offscreen. The heroes put people watching me and the Emperor to prevent us from betraying them? I'll just handle it offscreen with no elaboration and have the betrayal anyway. The Emperor is going to harness the Warring Triad? Let me just DEVELOP TOTAL IMMUNITY TO MAGIC and betray him. The Warring Triad explodes like a nuke with me on the epicenter, with the explictly made clear they're keeping each other in check and should go back to warring now that they're free? I'll absorb their powers and enslave them and become God, with absolutely no explanation ever given for this.
>>729354290>retard doesn't see how keying your stats to Junctioned stocks distincentivizes you from using these stocks
>>729348096
>>729349858Complete surface level midwit take. Typical. You definitely know you see it when someone brings up the orphanage. You know they got their opinion created for them.
>>729354449>cast ultima 5 times>attack goes down from 225 to 225 because of stat overflowNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO KITASE WHY DID YOU LET THEM DO THIS
>>729348096>>729354487We already solved this years ago.
>>72935460212 was almost good.
>>729350252Squall follows seifers footsteps to become his sorceress wifes knight. Despite how much the squabble and fight they're both the same inside. Seifer exudes all his issues by being boisterous and confrontational while squall does the exact opposite by being introverted and stand offish. Two sides of the same coin. Even squall understands this later in the game.
>>729354602III sucks thoughever
>>729354640Yes I know this. It would just be nice if this actually materialized in the form of an ingame rivalry where the two have similar narrative importance instead of Seifer being some asshole who shows like thrice to unceremoniously eat shit
>>729349732The new games are still good, they just clearly don't want to make JRPGs anymore. It probably bores them to death.
>>729354537The orphanage twist sucks ass and it's never not sucked ass
>>729348909>2005-2015>"OLD INTERNET"Zoomers are so embarrassing
>>729348096>>729348618ff8 is the best game in that image and this comes from someone that is smarter than you
>>729354773The new games look like shit to me.
>>729354537The orphanage plot beat reveals that the fate of the world is being played out between an orphanage matron, her divorced husband, and six of the kids that she used to have in her care (and Rinoa is also there). The entire scope of the conflict currently setting the world ablaze and pitting armies against each other has just been reduced to a domestic drama between nine people.
>>729353787even ignoring that retarded theory, the whole point of that character is that she wants to claim time as her own because she lost all her memories due to GF use. I never found her to be an asspull or "lacking motivation" for that reason. If anything, "we all knew each other from kids" was a bigger offender.
>>729355036>she wants to claim time as her own because she lost all her memories due to GF use.... Sorceresses don't need to use GFs. They just have the powers on their own.
>>729355085except for the fact that she literally fuses with one in the final fight?
>>729355085>You don't need a GFShall. Not. Be. Infringed.
>>729355193She literally just conjures Griever out of Squall's memories with her own power. Sorceresses just do shit like that.The reason Ultimecia is doing what she does is because of the timeloop; by stopping Ultimecia Squall also creates her.
>>729354870I've been retardmaxxing and my life has never been better. Ff8 is a game where you csnt retardmaxx since everything in the game is so bad that you need to go sorta schizo to like any aspect of it. 8 is literally an emotional game for non retards (women)
>>729354773While I don't agree with the first part, I do agree with you 100% on them not wanting to make jrpgs anymore. You could slowly see the cracks going as far back as FFXII or FFXIII that they clearly don't like basic rpg mechanics anymore.>FFXIII>stats are reduced to just 3 main stats(HP, STRENGTH, and MAGIC)>can't fully control your other party members and are basically AI controlled somewhat>FFXV>can't control your party members at all(on launch) and stuck to using the main character>FFXVI>no party members at all>back to bitch basics statsSomeone clearly hates party systems.
>>729355396>slowly see the cracks>13LEMAOHAHAHAHHAHA
>>729348096people say start with 7 but i've heard 10 is really good and the mc looks cool. what's up about it?>>729348909everything took a hard nose dive around 2014
>>729355396The cracks go all the way back to IV when they introduced ATB.
>>729348909Left is all unc coded troonslop brimstone o algo
>>729355568You can start with any of them except the sequels (X-2, FF7 Remake)If you think 10 looks cool just play it man
>>729353516>spamming Draw
>>729353749>spamming draw
>>729353651How dare you just post the best FF protagonist of all time like that.
>>729348909Its kinda sad that I have co-workers that even know what Wojaks are. But back in the day finding a co-worker that knew about Mudkipz was a statistical anomaly. I miss when internet shit stayed on the internet.
>>729348909I'll unironically take modern memes over the garbage that was the lol so randumb era. fuck off with your gay shit
>>729356689this
>>729356689Both are shit though. And that soul/soulless meme is a product of the modern era.
>>729348909Left is reddit as fuck.
>>729349424I still keep the template
>>729355396>Someone clearly hates party systems.Me
>>729355396They're just fucking lazy, they spent all their budget on hours of cutscenes and not balancing the game around playing as different characters.
>>729356865Please explain to me how it's possible to reddit as fuck when they existed before reddit was even a thing?Holy fuck the people on this website are subhuman minded.
>>729357019That guy was born in 2010 so he doesn't know betterHe means it was gaia as fuck, or just normalfag as fuck.
>>729357019reddit was created in 2005, zoom zoom.
>>729357081Those things on the left are the antithesis of normalfag as possible. Maybe gaia I'll give but gaia was fucking gay
>>729357152Who cares. It didn't get known or popular until the 2010s. You're such a fucking retarded fuck. I hate that I have to share a website with you
>>729354602XIII-2 is better than most games on the left.
>>729357457XIII-2 is worse than every game in that picture besides the other XIII titles
>>729348909>no geocities, angelfire, dragonshrines, gamefaqs, ragnarok onlineand that's just off the top of my head.
>>729355606ATB added more to the series than the later entries constantly removing and reduced shit down to 3 basic stats.
>>729357774You're a fucking retard. ATB is the reason all the simplification happened.
>It's a FF game that uses a non-conventional stat and leveling system like junctioning and materiaInto the fucking trash it goes.
>>729348909>old internet lasting past 2010lmao2011-2015 was absolute turbocancer, 2016+ just normalized stormfags
>>729349707>they forgot to make the villain have a backstory or any motivationsLiterally plastered in front of the audience in disc 1 but people are genuinely retarded enough to think that Ultimecia just "comes out of nowhere" so I wouldn't be surprised if they can't figure out that Edea is not the one talking about taking revenge on the world there
>>729352540>twitter filenameWe don't value your opinion.
