Topic: Final fantasy discussion thread

@kyleforrester87 i have, the series isn't the best but they are enjoyable, well apart from Integrity and Faithlessness that was a bore fest but as for The Last Hope it was probably the best game in the series so yeah as it's cheap i would say it's worth it

HEY i managed to finally get that Episode Gladiolus screen shot off the XB1, you know the one where the assets didn't load in and Gladio was walking on thin air, i posted it in the Screenshot thread

https://www.pushsquare.com/forums/retro_and_other_gaming/the_t...

SO how many of these have you played?

and yes i have played them all and completed them as well bar FFXI and FFXIV as they are MMO's and can't really be "completed"

@FullbringIchigo Played them all except V, XI and XIV. V is on my to-play list. I have it on my phone but would rather play the GBA version. Also planning to play XIV at some point. I got that in a sale a while ago on the PS4.

I really love this series. My favourites are IV, VI, VII and X, although I've enjoyed all the ones I've played and found that they all have things to appreciate.

@mookysam i did FFVII 100% you know back on the PS1, i did everything even buying the villa in Costa del Sol

@FullbringIchigo I didn't even know you could buy a villa. Hopefully when I play the PS4 version I'll do a lot of the extra bits I missed first time round.

@mookysam yep but it costs a lot

i played that game so much on the PS1 that the timer stopped as it couldn't go any higher and i have so much Gil the whole number can't fit on the screen

@FullbringIchigo to be fair the timer stopped at 99.99.59 which is pretty standard for a lot of games these days lol. My Xenoblade Chronicles 2 save is around 200 hours and still lots to do.

@kyleforrester87 i honestly have no idea how many hours i have played that game for, i know in FFIX when you get to the timer limit it changes colour and restart from 0:00:00

New FFXIV expansion:

Looks very cool!!!

@FullbringIchigo I played and finished everything but I, II (played them bit run out of stamina / got distracted by other stuff before finishing Then), XI and XIV that... can't be really completed. Found things to like in every FF I played so far

so this finally arrived

time to jump back into this underrated Final Fantasy that gets more hate than it deserves as it's now on the XB1 BC program

@FullbringIchigo Don't forget to tell us how it runs etc. ^O^

@Feena yeah i will, probably tomorrow though i want to spend some time with it first

@Feena of course if you want to know more about how the BC version is you could always read this eurogamer article

https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2018-final-...

@FullbringIchigo The approach Microsoft took with this one is very interesting! And though I get the ps3 version still has an edge for the (incredible) image quality because of the direct from Blu ray in the CGI and cutscenes portions, this actually makes want a remaster version because with SE you know that the original models had incredibles details we could and could not see...FF12 is testament to that

@Feena yeah if they announced a proper remaster of the game for PS4 then i would order it in a heartbeat

in case anyone is wondering the 360 version of FFXIII sits at a little over 30gb on the XB1 BC

and in terms of how it looks and plays well i only have a XB1s so i can't attest to how it looks on the XB1X but on the s i would say it's a bit better than the PS3 version in terms of looks BUT not by much although it has much better load times

i would say if you have the PS3 version then that will do you fine

EDIT: in case anyone is wondering yes that is a model of Slave-1, Legolas, Lady Yunalesca from FFX and Deathguise from FFIX at the base of my TV and yes it is sitting on top of a VHS player, you heard right a VHS player, i have loads of VHS's

So here is a question for the Final Fantasy fans out there

which game had the best Trailer, we all know games can have some pretty epic trailers but which FF game had the best, it doesn't matter if the game was changed afterwards or if it was cancelled just has to be epic

as for me i honestly can't decide between the FFXIII My Hands Trailer

FFVsXIII to FFXV trailer

or the FFVII Remake Trailer

remember these are MY choices and you don't have to pick any of these if you don't want to

FFvsXIII is XV is my favourite though it left me so scarred that I once dreamed they announced KH3 was FFXVI... True Story, true emotional scars. I want Nomura JUST in the character designer seat and far removed from everything else
