As the title reads, what's your favorite FF4 moment?
Mine is definitely after Cecil becomes a Paladin. It's fun leveling him up by himself on the mountain, especially since he starts at level "1".
One fight I had him level 10 times. It was fun watching the word "Cecil gained a level" a bunch of times :laughing:
What's your favorite moment?
This is a really hard question but I love the entire introduction, and the transformation into a Paladin probably the most.
I loved seeing Golbez and FuSoYa take on Zemus. In game it was really neat to see him in battle with a party sized sprite.
The whole entire game. :)
My favorite moment in the game was when Rydia rushes in to help the party take on Golbez directly. The changing of the battle theme and the way that she joins the party in the middle of the battle is still a very powerful moment to me.
Rydia's appearance was definitely well done. I also love at the end right before the final battle when the Final Fantasy theme plays and all your party members are healed.
Yes, Nobuo Uematsu and the development team did a good job of incorporating the music with the gameplay. I love the way that the music changes suddenly despite the system limitations of games like that.
There are really too many to list for me. A quick list but I'm sure I'll forget a few...
The opening on the red wings
Cecil and Kain heading to Mist
Mist destroyed and Rydia summoning Titan
Edward seeing Anna's spirit
Kain's Betrayal and Golbez's entrance
Cecil washing up near Mysdia
Cecil becoming a Paladin
The whole Dark Elf Scenario
Any of the battles with the Four Fiends
The battle against Calcebria and Golbez, as well as Rydia's return
Going to the Land of Summons (Feymarch)
Going to the Moon and learning about Cecil and Zemus
The big battle with the Giant of Bab-il and the casts heroic return (screw all of you who wanted them to stay dead, that scene was awesome :p )
The entire Battle with Zemus/Zeromus, starting with Golbez and FuSoYa fighting Zemus down to using the crystal to give Zeromus physical form.
Really, I felt this game just had too many good scenes. :cool:

The Lunar Trials(GBA version)
The final battle. The entire final battle from FuSoYa and Golbez til the very end. It's my favorite final battle of the series.
In addition to those, there's the ending (happiest and most complete ending in any FF), Cecil going back to Mysidia as a paladin proving himself to everyone there, Cecil saving Rydia from the Baron soldiers, Tellah's sacrifice, and Golbez regaining control of himself in the Giant of Bab-il. There's probably a lot more that I can't remember.Quote:

I thought about it for a little while and came to the conclusion that it was because everyone, including the player, knew that his death was imminent if he used Meteor on Golbez, and Tellah faces Golbez with Golbez, Clad in the Dark as a battle theme. I imagine that if the player had no hints that he was planning to give up his life to cast Meteor and beat Golbez, and Dreadful Fight had played during his battle, then it would have been a lot more memorable and appreciated.
Tellah realized that fighting only for vengeance was a mistake only in his dying moments. I think those last moments are really sad...

The intro dialogue and music when Kain and Cecil exit the Castle made me feel epic
When Rydia returns during the battle with Golbez in the Underworld
Pre-end game battle when everyone is lending their strength to you as you prepare to fight Zeromus
When Rydia appeared again and made toast of that annoying summon. Emotions went from :eek:how-am-I-ever-gonna-kill-this? to :jess::jess:
