I finished Final Fantasy XII and by far I can say it is my least favorite game which is a bummer because I really love the world of Ivalice. My biggest gripe is the battle system mechanics -- I felt like there were certain things I wanted to do but did not have the proper spell to do them. I'd chalk this up to me not really trying to learn the mechanics of the game. It is also the only title that took me a long time to complete in terms of playing the game and not in-game hours. I racked ...
Been a cool minute since I updated. Picked up where I left off from Final Fantasy XII: Zodiac Age. This game is turning out to be more of a time sink than I had anticipated. Overall, I feel if I had more time I'd thoroughly enjoy the game and the battle system. Not wanting to detract from original intent in finishing all the main titles of Final Fantasy and their spin offs, I decided to power through once again. Except this time I'm doing it offline since setting up a streaming schedule ...
Hello everyone! This one might be a doozy, and there are some parts in here that talk about the loss of a couple of family members. Since, I made a post in the Let's Play category, I've decided to refocus this space into a behind the scenes kind of area. Honestly, I think it is more for me than for other people because it helps me document my experience with Final Fantasy and life. At this point, it's just me writing just to write so I can keep refining my skills to write. ...
So promptly after beating Final Fantasy X, I was able to beat Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus and Final Fantasy X-2! So I'm finally on Final Fantasy XII! I think I'll write a quick recap on Dirge of Cerberus & Final Fantasy X-2. Dirge of Cerberus: I don't really recall what the reception was for this when it was first released. I just remember picking it up and being excited because it was an expansion on Final Fantasy VII, one of my favorite ...
Hey everyone! It took me a good minute but I finally beat Final Fantasy X. I had some trouble towards the end with specific boss mechanics. Overall, I'm glad I finally completed a game I never got a chance to play when I was younger. The story lost me towards the end because there were some resolutions I would have liked to seen become resolved. I have a feeling that any of those answers won't be answered in FFX-2 but if it does then that'd be cool. I'm beaten 10 games ...
Hey everyone! Lately I've been sucked away doing life stuff. I want to spare everyone the details. My main focus now is "The Quest to Play Final Fantasy" which I dubbed my Final Fantasy marathon. I want to update that list again and go over what I've played so far. Before I do that I want to put it out there that I am actively trying to build a hub for other Final Fantasy fans to find their way to this website. From my short interactions with everyone here I've ...
Hello everyone! I have a lot to update on today -- some good and some bad. The bad news is my biological father died and I am having to come to terms with his death. I was close to him which is why I find it weird that I am not feeling too much. I think I'm pretty numb about what's going on and I usually wake up feeling pretty empty. I noticed that every time life hits me hard that it never stops. Right now, I'm throwing myself into school and projects to help ease the ...

Hey all, For those of you that don't know I have been on a quest to beat all the main titles of Final Fantasy. I started with the spin-off "Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core" but have steadily progressed through Final Fantasy titles I - IX now. I am finally into the PS2 era of Final Fantasy as I set out to play Final Fantasy X. In the past, I've done quasi-reviews but I feel like I don't really need to review them. Instead I'll just talk about what annoys me and what I thought ...
*TL;DR: I decided to redo my entry for Final Fantasy VII Remake. I did this because I read another review from another member of EoFF, and it inspired me to do better. Also note, a lot of these sections will be incomplete because I need some time to digest what I want to express here. Here's a brief summary of what I thought of Final Fantasy VII Remake. Overall, I enjoyed the game a lot but there were a few gripes I had with the camera controls and battle mechanics. The number one ...

Hello everyone, I'm here to catch you up on my journey through the Final Fantasy series! I've beaten it about 2-3 times before on PSX & PC. My PC playthrough is actually what led me to this forums. Playing them 10+ years apart had piqued my curiosity on FF8's plot and I came here to look for answers. I think after some time I was satisfied and I took a hiatus from the forums. It wasn't until I got into streaming that I decided to record myself playing through all the Final Fantasy ...
