Nice to meet you, my fellow FF friends

[PoolHandMan]

Hello guys and girls, I am new in this forum, nice meeting you. I play FF since I was 10 years old (ff7 was my first, and I'm 22 now) and up till now I've played 4,6,8,9,10,12,13, tactics. Right now I am playing ff5, which I found very good. So, I'm looking forward to share my experiences with you, and vice versa. :)

PS: I am not a native speaker so, a little English mistake might appear here and there ;)

[Formalhaut]

Don't worry, your English is perfectly fine. Quite good actually! I've seen my English people with worse English skills. :p

So, you've played many Final Fantasies, what would you say is your favourite? Are you looking forward to the newest games in development? Like Lightning Returns, Versus (If you can call that in development is another issue entirely).

What are you doing also as a career or for education? Any interests and hobbies? Sorry, my way of welcoming people to EoFF is to just ask as many questions as can be.

wow thanks for the warming welcome! ;)

Despite what many people say, I really think ff7 is the best. Maybe because is what got me into the ff franchise and I really like the storyline.

What I'm looking forward to see: Final Fantasy Type 0 in English (C'mon square, not everyone knows japanese :mad:) and Final fantasy versus 13 (looks really awesome). About final fantasy 13-2 and 13-3 I really think they should have finished versus 13 instead. For me FF13 had a perfect ending so, I don't like the idea of those 2 games.

About my life, well, I am an English teacher here in Brazil and I'm studying computer science at the University, my dream is to have my own game company (or work in a big company, developing games). I like to play guitar too, I really love music (rock, metal, esp.), movies, japanese culture, and of course, games in general (metal gear solid, tekken, megaman x series are examples of my favorites)

and you guys? do you share my opinion on the best FF or is your favorite ff another one? cheers!

[NeoCracker]

Of all FF's I enjoy, FF VII is actually my lest favorite. I do quite enjoy it though. Mostly Cid.

VI and IX edge out the others for me.

And did you play Megaman X: Command Mission? The one they turned into an RPG?

[PoolHandMan]

yes, but I didn't finish. I guess I'm too used to go around the map dashing and shooting/slashing hahaha
the idea of turned based rpg in that universe looked odd to me, but I'm on vacation now, so I might give it a try again!

Did you like it?

[NeoCracker]

It was enjoyable. Not amazing, but definitely worth checking out. I never got around to finishing it either though.

[Formalhaut]

wow thanks for the warming welcome! ;)


That's okay! I love new members!

I think most people have problems with the compilation of VII, not the core VII itself. I think people thought the series went abit loopy what with Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, etc.

Why don't you look at the Type - 0 forum and check out Goldenboko's lovely updates? For example, Operation Suzaku is undergoing! You can sign petitions and stuff! And drum up support. I agree though, I don't know Japanese. Sucks...

If you play FFXIII-2, you find out that "perfect" ending was just the tip of the iceberg... if you enjoyed XIII, I do recommend playing XIII-2. It improves stuff on linearity and customisation. Lots of time travel stuff though.

Ah, that's nice. So, as an English teacher, are you still Brazilian? Where do you come from? My brother's from England, but he's out in Japan teaching English as a foreign language.

Well, that's nice you want to work in games; who knows, you might design the next big Final Fantasy! What sort of features would you improve on a Final Fantasy? As for music, lets see here... WHAT THE HELL?! I'm not really a fan of rock and metal. Sorry.

[Rantz]

Welcome, Sir PoolHandMan! I hope you settle in well and enjoy our humble abode! :D

[Faris]

FFV is fantastic. Welcome aboard!

I am sorry that's not what I meant haha I am Brazilian, and I teach the English language at an school :)

Wow if I could work on the next FF that it would be perfect! Sincerely, I don't know what I would change, maybe I would put some real action system (something like ff XII), but maybe they (square enix) would lose a lot of money since it looks like most fans like the classic turn-based battles. Before I played ff 13 I was really looking forward to see an evolution of the battle system from the XII system, but that was not the case, so I got a little disappointed at first. But it turns out that I really enjoyed the game :)
Really don't you like rock? what type of music do you like then?


Faris and Rantz, thanks for the welcome, ffV is really good, and coincidence or not, Faris is my fav character of this game, she looks really cool in the samurai armor :D

[Formalhaut]

Eh, I'm into all sorts, I don't really have a preference, though I do really like string, orchestra and stuff like that. :D

[Raistlin]

For me FF13 had a perfect ending...

:screwy:

Despite that dubious statement, welcome to EoFF!

well, don't get me wrong, ff13 wasn't one of the best ffs, but it was decent. What I meant is that I think the story had a perfect conclusion. And it's just my opinion.

[Pheesh]

I like your name, it is fun to say, and it's always good to see more musicians around the place. What are some of your favourite bands?

[Faris]

I really like Oasis, Rage Against the Machine, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Queens of the stone age... when it comes to metal I like Killswitch engage, as i lay dying, In flames, there are lots and lots of bands that I like one post wouldn't be enough :)
what about you?

hey faris I like this one too:

pretty cute huh? and deadly. Equip her with red slippers, rainbow dress and chicken knife and she deals 5000 damage with her Sword Dance :cool:

[Pheesh]

Oh awesome. I love RAtM, they were the second best live act I ever saw, so much energy. I like most of the early 90's grunge era bands (Soundgarden, The Smashing Pumpkins etc) and a lot of Prog/Alt. Rock bands (Karnivool, Skyharbor, A Perfect Circle). Also started getting into Djent music more recently, so I have a pretty wide range of tastes.

Have you been playing very long?

Oh man xD You should check out the FF Ciddies thread (http://home.eyesonff.com/eoff-archived-awards/147286-final-fantasy-25th-anniversary-ciddies-winners-ceremony.html). I used that sprite in almost all of my posts. I'm sure it irritated many people!

I play since I was 12 years old, so I've been playing for 10 years now. But believe it or not I don't know much about theory (scales and stuff) and I'm beginning to study it now. what about you?

Faris, you should use that sprite again soon hahaha

hey lockharted thx for the welcome, I'll certainly check the chat later! :)
PS: Cookies are always a good idea!
