Play Final Fantasy 10.Now.
I simply can't. X-2 ruined it for me.
>>730681627How? Just don't play X-2
>>730681414what the fuck?!?!?!?!is this an ai post?am I being spied on? I just got rikku yesterday and I've been leveling her up in the woods right here outside of guadosalam
what in the fuckhow the fuck do i own this lolgenuinely 0 recollection of ever interacting with it
>>730681652x-2 is so much better that it's impossible to go back to 10
>>730681652I just don't see the characters in the same light as I used to.
No.
>>730681414People give XIII shit about being a hallway simulator but FFX isn't any better
>>730681779>I just don't see the characters in the same light as I used to.you sound like one of the faggots who was butthurt that Lulu got pregnant
>>730681710funny, i am just about to head off to luca, but i've been playing DQ1 on the SNES in between short bursts of FFX
I bought a PS2 mostly for this game and then didn't finish it. 9 was the last good FF
>>730681414I own this and 10-2?I own this. Okay. Well. How do I play? Do I just jump in blind, or should I be following a guide?
>>730681907X mogs IX lmao, IX is for Uncs too embarrassed to play the superior IV-VI
Can Spirans just breathe underwater? Also what was the fixation on water and spheres in that game anyway?
>>730681856Try actually playing both of the games and then compare their hallways.
>>730681976>Well. How do I play? Do I just jump in blind, or should I be following a guide?You can play the game 99% blind with a few exceptions.Dont buy the Jinx spell. It's bugged so it actually does nothing. They never fixed it for the remaster.
>>730681753i'll give it a shot actually cause of this threadi'll use this patch to get xbox button prompts, otherwise my autism will be really mad
>>730681996They're both pretty similar actually. 9 and 10 both feel like a huge, epic journey across the world with a teenager and a cute girl. Zidane and Tidus even look similar and both want to stop some narcissistic asshole from destroying the world. They both follow 6's tradition.It's 7 and 8 that are the weird and edgy ones. Usually someone who likes 9, likes 10 and vice versa.
Remaster sucksPlay International on PS2/PCSX2
Uematsu carriedgoing from X to X-2 or XII or XIII is such a downgrade
>>730682121Gotcha. Thanks, man.
>>730681414I still have to play 5 to 9 though.
>>730682267if you use a xbox controller like me check this out >>730682147this will be my first FF game, i have no idea how tf i own this thing
>>730681856I just finished X and started XIII, the difference is that X has towns, minigames, and puzzle dungeons to spice things up. I'm enjoying XIII despite that though since I went I with low expectations. I don't hate linearity, I can just see XIII as like a playable movie which is what I think they may have been going for, playable Advent Children.
>>730682203Does the same apply to X-2
>>730682248XII actually had a 9/10 soundtrack.
>>730682267Oh yeah one other tip. You need Ability Spheres to buy spells and abilities on the grid, but they don't drop very often in the start of the game. Make sure you teach "Extract Ability" to wakka, and he can start making enemies drop ability spheres.
>>730681414
>>730682248To be fair this is the first FF to not be 100% composed by Uematsu iirc and the ones that aren't his are also pretty fucking good.Junya Nakano and Masashi Hamauzu(XIII) were the other main composers I think, pretty sure Besaid Island is mostly Hamauzau even.Some decisions they made with the remasters OST is fucking ludicrous though.
NONE of the FF games have any shared characters or plot stuff right? ... whys the main guy in this kinda look like fuckin cloud
>>730683019They share chocobos
>>730682364I'm replaying 12 right now maybe 10 hours in and the OST is completely forgettable
>>730682349He's retarded. Play the remaster but at least MOD it with untitled project X and the refined PS2 faces.
FFXV is the best FF game
>>730683154you mean smth like these?
>>730681414How the vita version? I recently hacked mine.
>>730683019None of them are connected.The series does how recurring things that are different in all of them.For example there is always a character named cid but in one game he might be a trader and in the other a scientist with a completely different personality.
>>730683295Nah, mods still aren't as good as the original, play both FFX and FFX-2 (if you really have to play that) on PCSX2.
>>730683351Only exception might be Gilgamesh but thats more just a funny lil thing than anything to take seriously
>>730683351Fake.FF7 and F10 are in the same universe
>>730683446i don't wanna bother with emulation desu there's alwyas some shit that doesn't work well+ i want xbox button promptsnever even played the ps2 ver so I can prob skip those mods even but may as well make it as authentic as possible ig
>>730683019for the most part, no
>>730681414I tried it but it sucks
I just got to Zanarkand... holy kino...
>>730683508Well, if you're going with the remaster, then the mods are a must, the original remaster ruins the whole atmosphere and characters look retarded
I still can't find a Yunie gf
>>730683526Remember when SE put a stock google image in their game?
>>730681414out of the way, hag
>>730682203>PCSX2No, unless you want to play it at the native res.Otherwise, use RetroArch & the ParaLLEl-GS renderer. It makes the game look 100x better without any artifacts on the menus/text.I would also use Lossless Scaling to up the framerate to 60.
>>730683169i think i beat FF15 using only 2 buttons in every combat encounter.in FF16 you only use 1 button.
Tidus is one of the best protagonists in FF.
>>730683704>the worst girl from XIIshit taste on both issues
>>730683832nigga played with assist ring on lol
>>730683295Yes and it fixes the animations. Ignore the dipshit, it's nicer than the original.
>>730683506>>730683526These are just plain easter eggs and not canon.>>730683019There are central themes, such as the magical crystals and the summons/espers/aeons associated with them, aside from FFVIII I guess.They all just mix the recurring things around and switch out focus from one thing to the next, like 7 had materia but the focus was more on the environmental issues present with summons taking a back seat story-wise while 9 has the crystals as mundane equippable trinkets with little story impact but summons themselves are a big part of the plot.
>>730683969they made it the default, it was intended to be experienced that way. i played on "normal" difficulty.
>>730683882He's one of the worst. And not for haha reasons.
>>730684123You are so retarded it hurts. I can't believe you played an entire action game through with assist mode on.This is worse than plebbit.
>>730684124He's kino.In the top 3 of FF protags.
>>730683976yeah seems like a rly good set of mods
>>730684124Tidus has the best arc of going from a hot head teenager to adulthood by learning about life, death and humility.Other than that, I fucking hate him.
>>730683932you prefer the sober 70 year old shitskin rabbit that has razor claws and probably smell like wet fur over the playful white girl?or the what's her name with uh i remember nothing about her
>>730681414Waiting for it to go on sale.Im not paying full price for a PS2 game
>>730684061>These are just plain easter eggs
>>730684223rather than having a fit at me you should get upset with the devs making that the normal difficulty
>>730684320He is a whining faggot, even more than squall>wahh zanarkand>wahh daddyZidane is the only based protagonist in the series.
>>730684810stfu nigger
>>730684716You choose to put on the assist rings
>>730684810Sounds like you didn't play the game. He's a based chad who grows over the course of the game and becomes a strong and courageous hero, and he fucks the main heroine too which automatically makes him better than 98% of other JRPG protagonists
FF X is a game for faggots. FF9 was the last real Final Fantasy game. Thanks for reading these facts. You may now continue posting your faggy feelings about how much you love this shit game.
>>730684678He also said he can't be an ultimate judge on the Rinoa = Ultimecia theory after this event because there were many designers working together and some nuance might've escaped him.They are not going to expand upon Shinra in FFVII, so it is as good as an easter egg.
Ultima from XVI is the same race as Jenova. They escaped from where they came from and were separated or had a disagreement and went separate ways. Jenova was damaged beyond repair crashing onto the Planet while Ultima made it intact onto Valisthea
>>730684521How dare you. She is white, even has blonde hair. The skin color is due to her rabbit genes and it isn't even brown if you look closely, it is more bronze-ish. She's not a shitskin like a pajeet or beaner are. Never fucking talk shit like that again faggot.
>>730683882That's not Squall
>>730681414Hey come on I play it yearly or so.>>730681627X-2 doesn't exist.
only if theres a mod where i can put jecht on my team and he spends the entire game dunking on tidus
>>730683351Cid is always an engineer of some sort, no?
>>730685302It does because the gameplay is good.
>>730685023So what? Kimari fucked her as well. Yuna is just a natural born slut. Garnet was actually hard to get and disintered in Zidane, who got her anyway. He is a bigger Chad.
>>730681753>buy while drunk during a sale>find out years later you were basedyou're alright anon
>>730685207>He also said he can't be an ultimate judge on the Rinoa = Ultimecia theoryHe said he can't say no one on the team may have thought about R=U because he's not a mind reader. We have yet to have any of the other devs say it was a thing.>They are not going to expand upon Shinra in FFVII, so it is as good as an easter egg.Yeah let's just ignore things like Gilgamesh showing up in other games and Stranger of Paradise and FF4: TAY making references to "other worlds". They aren't coming right out and going "yes all the FF worlds are connected somehow" but it's a bit more direct than just being an easter egg.
>>730681414I used to project she was my crush Taylor.She looked nothing like her but the way she spoke was spot on.I never asked her out because she was fat and kind of ugly. She was the ONE though. Now its been 15 years since I spoke to her.
>>730681414I am actually playing it right now. Pic related is my current story progression.Why are nips so fucking terrible at gameplay design and balancing? You spend dozens of hours to go from a spell that deal some fire damage to the spell that deal slightly more fire damage. You get shitton of completely useless buffs like "waste your turn to increase your party's accuracy and crit rate by 1%". There's probably not a single game in the history of gaming where this kind of buff would be useful. Debuffs are not working on any bosses.Have nips never played any tabletop RPGs? Or anything that requires more than 1 brain cell?
>>730684902it's the only rings you start with, pretty sure they even are already equipped...it doesn't say "equip these to play on easy difficulty" on the ring descriptions. by the end of the game i realized i should unequip them to play on "hard" difficulty but thought that i might as well finish the game on "normal" now
IVE FORGOTTEN THEIR NAMES!IM AGING I CANT REMEMBER THEIR NAMES!FUCK FUCK!
>>730685607go speak to herworst happens you find out that she married tyrone and you dodged a bulletmaybe she's thirsty for you and you never knew
>>730685251posting an image that looks like it was ran through one of those whitening filters sheboons use on instagram doesn't exactly help your case hehe
>>730685623Yeah, this is very common with jap games. They are terribly balanced and very bloated with tons of useless items and spells. (Symphony of the night is a good example).As a rule of thumb, Westoid games have amazing gameplay, but shitty stories. Jap games have amazing stories, but shitty gameplay.
>>730684124He may be the only one with a complete character arc and not emotionally stunted like Squall or Cloud
>>730685705Well, shes gone and im not going to find her on facebook or twitter.She definitely has a bf or something now.And yes, she told me she liked me, and when I started dating another girl she got mad and would cling to me in the classes we had together. It would have been a childhood romance since we knew eachother and were friends since kindergarten. Its whatever though. Just another reason to drink.
>>730685641Game journalist-tier anon. This is too disappointing.The game tells you about the rings. You went an entire game and NEVER checked out the equipment section?Furthermore, they are only equipped by default from the start if you specifically choose that option.
>>730685220>one is a generic villain that seeks to recreate his home>the other is a thing-like mass of alien cells that seeks to suck the planet dry of life and move on to the next planet>lol they're siblings>>730685593Final Fantasy is the OG MCU but the worlds are isolated. The only real canon thing in the FF franchise connecting everything is Dissidia, and even that is only debatably canon when considering every other game.
>>730685926Yep, there are two many similarities if you play the games and play close attention. I played 7 (Original) and 16 right after each other.16 is basically just 7-2, it takes so much from 7, except the medieval Ivalice inspired setting with some Game of Thrones influence.
I have been on and off the past couple months. It’s pretty fun. Im at the second Seymour boss fight
>>730681414I've played it so much though. I just can't bring myself to do another run.
>>730685926>The only real canon thing in the FF franchise connecting everything is DissidiaDo you consider that whole game an "easter egg" then? Because that's my point.
>>730685878nmv i found her. she has a really fat boyfriend. shes still really fat too.
>>730683714LRPS2 makes the game have gamebreaking bugs that PCSX2 fixes
>>730681627>>730685302two good things with x2 is that wakka and the hag actually did have a child, and that the all-female combat is centered around wearing different pretty outfits>>730685910the game is on-rails, you were just handed better equipment through the story. it was completely braindead.it was so devoid of thinking that they didn't even put stuff on sidepaths, you just strolled on a straight line between locations and there was a glowing orb on the ground that you couldn't miss, then you pressed a button to get something better than the thing you already had. at most you needed to go to the blacksmith guy and press a button again.sidequest? just go to the highlight and press a button, then follow the highlight to the enemy, press your combat button and then teleport back to the quest giver. dead world, dead exploration.
>>730686103It's a spin-off, much like Ehrgeiz is. It doesn't matter if it's canon or not because they do not impact the mainline games in any way, just like FFX doesn't affect FFVII aside from the photo.Dissidia can be brushed away by the divine forces setting things like they were after the events in the game. Or do you suppose Cloud and Sephiroth being in Smash should be considered with the weight of being canon?
>>73068185610 is a hallway simulator done right
Rikku best girl
>>730686126kek happy to help you through thatyou ARE over her now, right?
>>730682068There's a technique they can learn that allows them to use the pyreflies that saturate water to provide themselves with oxygen.Tidus, Waka, and Rikku know this, that's why underwater sections are restricted to them.
I might replay it but I hate those temples
>>730686358>puts every single femC in slutty clothesIf X-2 came out today it would be vastly considered based.
>>730681414>spend another 4 hours trying to dodge 300 lightning bolts or some shitnah go fuck yourself
>>730686347>It's a spin-offThat's not the question I asked. Do you consider Dissidia an easter egg?
>>730681652I can't play replay Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2, because I hate Mass Effect 3. That is just how it goes.
>>730686235It's not quite as good, but at least FFX works flawlessly.
>>730686426i have no idea. current gf does not meet requirements for me to be happy.
>>730686592I can't call it an easter egg because it doesn't meet the definition of the word. Shinra being in a photo is not a spin off or a cameo but an easter egg because it makes no difference if it's there or not and was retroactively added as part of the story: as a photo on a wall.FFVII explores space themes enough to justify it having an antique looking space suit in Dio's collection.
>>730685705NTA but something similar happened to me yesterday. A coworker from the KFC I worked at over a decade ago contacted me out of the blue to say she just wanted to know how I was doing. And I don't know how to feel about it
>>730686576Do you intend on using Lulu for the endgame?
>>730686559>X starts with half of the crowd being brown skinned>shittton of brown characters through the gameAnd X would be considered woke slop.
>>730686508Weird, I always thought it was because Wakka and Tidus had special blitzball training, but it wouldn't explain why Rikku can do this as well. Is what you said canon?
>>730684521Her name is Ashelia B'nargin Dalmasca, you imperial dog. Also, for the best girl discussion, lets not forget the cutie pie from Reddas' crew that has trouble dressing herself
>>730687082WOAH MAAM!! MAAM please let me visualize the boob, please!
>>730685251Sexy character with the sexiest english dub VA in the genre, probably the entire medium of vidya.
This thread is filled with bot posts.
>>730686826>it makes no difference if it's there or not and was retroactively added as part of the storyExcept it was added in after Kitase made a claim that FF7 and FFX take place in the same world. Had the pic of Shinra just been there without any explanation or reference you could chalk it up to the name being used in both games but one of S-E's top developers is admitting to a connection in a game series that is constantly crossing over with itself.
>>730685623>waste your turn to increase your party's accuracy and crit rate by 1%dodge, not crit, and that actually lets you skip some stat grind on a couple of optional bosses
>>730687238I do like Fran but she doesn't get nearly enough character moments
>>730686826>FFVII explores space themes enough to justify it having an antique looking space suit in Dio's collectionThat's not a space suit, it's an easter egg reference to Evangelion
Great story, great characters, great art, great music, great combat system terrible sidequests, boring as fuck character balance, terrible abilities, sphere grid is worse than job boards.I honestly do want this game to get a remake that makes the the full 75 percent of the game's abilities into NOT dogshit. We'll never ever get a remake that does something like that though, so this game and I have a complicated relationship.
>>730687260Their admittance means nothing until they act upon it. Fact is, these two games were developed separately with no consideration over the other until wild fan theories and Kitase admitting to it and adding a photo into a remake that apparently takes place in another dimension or universe than the original.Kitase has never made such a claim himself to my knowledge and all he is doing is playing into the fans' hype when asked with others following suit. I have little expectations for them to actually expand upon Shinra since they didn't do so already in Rebirth.>>730687434I haven't paid much mind to the suit so I never got it until now.
>>730687260It's just a nod, not meant to be taken very seriously. Or do you think Cids reincarnate in every game? The series does not even care about that.
>>730687676>Their admittance means nothing until they act upon itLike putting a picture of Shinra in Shinra HQ?>Kitase has never made such a claim himselfsee >>730684678>all he is doing is playing into the fans' hype when asked with others following suitwow it's almost as if this is less an easter egg and more a direct appeal to the connections of the games
>>730687050I read it in a guide book or something that came along with the game.I'm not sure if its stated in game anywhere.
>>730687082very impressive bobs, madammy izzat is bulging in my pants
>>730685251Some people get a chub by listening to a French accent, but personally for me, it's Icelandic.
>>730687694The point is that it's more than just an easter egg, there are connections between games that can be made and have been confirmed by Kitase himself. I seriously doubt they're going to get deep into explaining how it all connects but it's clear that FF as a series connects the games to each other in small ways.
>>730687998>>730688254So I guess FF tactics is also in the same universe since Cloud appears in it. Gotcha.
>>730684406I'm glad that people are putting in all the work to make the steam version look better, but every time I see these sorts of pictures all I see is 4 lovely photos of my wife
>>730687137im still surprised she was basically just in one place in that game
>>730689092based and Yuniepilled
>>730688254The only connection is Shinra and the namesake Shin-Ra. Everything else works different and is different so there is no reason to assume Shinra is nothing more than a nod, anon.There are literally no other straight up connections that can't be said same about any other one in the franchise.
>>730689071Yes? The game literally has Final Fantasy in the name.
>>730689513
>>730689543Again, the issue is whether the references are easter eggs or a bit more than that. Did they just coincidentally name a character in one game and a corporation in another game the same/similar thing?
>>730689752Yes, they reused a name, nothing more. Just like they use Biggs and Wedge or Cid, who is more often than not a non playable character. Johnny is also one that gets thrown around IIRC.Kitase and Co. don't care and just play along probably because they get asked alot and want to keep the games and themselves relevant.
>>730681627I don't see why people like this game, really wasn't impressed with any aspect story or gameplay wise. Yuna was hot though.
>>730681414>Screenshot (6232).pngnigga...
remember that FF did it first
>>730690398>Yes, they reused a name>Biggs and Wedge or Cidso all those characters are easter eggs now?
>>730689676
You are here because Spira is about to be destroyed. Its every living inhabitant terminated, its entire existence eradicated.
Yuna's feet...
>>730691239Delicate, sweet, clean.Beautiful sight.
>>730690537>he doesn't do screenshots when he games
>>730681414No. Tidus and Yuna are 2 of the most insufferable characters in FF history. Rest of the game and its characters are pretty good but its not enough for me to re play it all the way through again.
>>730692041They're just realistic teenagers

>>730683932I don't know ANY FF 12 characters. I played only 7, 9 and 10, but am still able to name/recognize main party characters from 8, 13, 15.12 failed really hard with its characters.
>>730695247>>730696120WAAAH THAT 1 PIXEL IS SLIGHTLY LIGHTER THAN IN THE ORIGINAL
>>730696210Yeah, man, that's totally what's wrong with the remasters lmao fucking faceblind autist
>>730695247Tidus hasn't been the same since he started smoking crack.
>>730681414Last time I tried to play 10 all the cutscenes would turn green and then the game would crash.
>>730696285Ok, negro, please try to write what's wrong with it. Use the words. And don't just say generic "the models are wrong", try to describe exactly what makes it wrong. A single example would be fine.Because as soon as you start writing it, you will quickly understand how absolutely retarded it all sounds.
>>730696617Tidus looks like Meg Ryan in the remasters and (You) are a faggot for finding it acceptable lmao
>>730696725>And don't just say generic "the models are wrong">the retard says exactly thatgood job
>>730681414I will but first I need to play Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy III, Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy V, Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, and Final Fantasy IX. At the rate I get around to these games I will be playing X in 2035.
>breaking 9999 for the first timeshit was soak ash
>>73068141410 is far and away the most overrated FF game. it looked mid during previews, it was mid when it came out, it was mid when they decided to make a pointless sequel, and it's mid right now today.
>>730681710I’m farming the Thunderplains
>>730681856And it's not. Same director. People give X a pass because it's the first one they played
>>730683169XV is great fun, especially once you get over the mid-10's false hope that the open world of any open world game can be good.
>>730681414Luv lulusimple as
>>730698016botched combat, botched storybest part was the fishing
>>730681754I have a weird problem with X-2, both times I've played it I got right near the end, stopped, and then when I tried to go back to it later I just couldn't get back into the groove. I'm not sure what it is, but I suspect it's something to do with my completionist nature and not wanting to play the game over again. I think next time I try playing it I'll try forcing myself to complete my current game and just do the second playthrough or something.
Wakka and Rikku would've made a cute couple
>>730684124The absolute worst is Vaan, and it's not even close. Compared to Vaan, Tidus is fucking amazing.
