When the fun seriously begins...

I always thought the FF games got seriously entertaining once you got the Airship.
It´s the same in all of the FF-games - Airship = yay.
In FF1 you can fetch those wonderful ProRings and Gold Bracelets, in FF4 you can immediately set for the town of Silvera and get the Mithril stuff, in FF6 you can level up your Espers on the island with the Intangir and so forth.

Of course it was the same with FF7, once you got the Airship you could freely fly about in the world and collect great stuff everywhere.
However, I think the TRUE entertainment in this game would be to get those Huge Materias and collect precious stuff like Master Magic and Master Command and link them with Support Materia in various interesting ways (THANKS to the "confused" one from this forum who came up with the combo:
Master Command=HP Absorb, Master Magic=All, Master Summon=MP Absorb, it rules bigtime!) :love:

I always get huge kicks by mastering Materia after Materia and run to Bugenhagen in order to get another Master Materia. It never gets boring, it´s so sweet to see those Materias get mastered in the EXP/AP screen everytime, >bling!<, "Ultima was born". :D
Don´t you agree, guys? :cool:

Of course, but I´m talking about those totally wonderful moments that appear later in the game.
Personally, I think it´s as most entertaining during the second disc; you get access to practically everything!
You can raise chocobos, get some bad-ass Materia, collect the Ultimate Weapons or simply fly about in the world and stuff like that, you know. :)

I never got any serious kicks during the first disc.
Sure, it´s fun, but I mostly think of it as a hint about the fun that is to come.

The fun begins when I get to the second continent. In FF2, the game's fun from the beginning, since I haven't really found a way to pikot the airship other than telling Cid to take you somewhere. FF5 is fun once you get the Dragon. I think FF8 is fun after you leave Dollet. FF9 is fun once you leave the Ice Cave. I don't think FFX is fun.

Rengori:

There actually is a way to use the Airship in a different way:
in the end of the game, talk to Cid, and afterwards
(SPOILER)he dies and gives you the Airship.

Midgar was always the most fun for me.

That and the Gold Saucer.

Its fun right from the start, the best moment is the beginning of the game when you are in Midgar.

Midgar and Gold Saucer. The most annoying is that Ancient Forest. I hate the stupid frogs and flies.

That´s what I mean, PrincessYuna! :D
Right now I´m collecting Sources and Master Materias,
and I almost beat Emerald Weapon with the "repeat Limit Break forever" technique. :cool:
However, Cloud only mimed it once at a time, so I didn´t deal enough damage before I was killed myself. :cry:
But it WAS close, one more hit would do´em in! :D:D:D

The airship is totally cool. I loved it when Tifa was stuck on the edge of that cannon and I was wondering how the hell she was going to get away, then I hear this rousing music and then the Highwind rose up behind her. Just amazing.

The Fun begins when you get Cait Sith on your team. ^^

I really don't like the Midgar part, although climbing the ShinRa tower is fun.

Midgar's only good because it has Rufus in it, heheh :P
I guess the boring bits are usually the bits at the beginning because they are so familiar! You're more likely going to be fighting your way up the Shinra tower for the 100th time than defeat Sephiroth for the 100th time...mostly due to resets and botched up games, as it were ¬_¬
It is quite funny how the airships seem to be the turning points in the FF series :D The world is accessible and you can truly rule the game. Sorta. The only problem is that when you get the airship (or equivalent), it has implications that the game willl end soon. The solution? Go to the Gold Saucer and never leave ^_^

OFF TOPIC:
The Airship came and went a lot in FF6. :rolleyes2
>borrow, yay!< - >leave, sigh< - >yay!< - >CRASH!< - >yay!< - >RUMBLE-KABOOM!< - >YAY!!!< :D

ON TOPIC:
I always dance with joy when I get the Airship.
With the exception, of course, to FF3, in the beginning. ;)

My favorite parts of the game were always when Cloud was trying to figure out his "true identity," as well as the part when Cloud got over-exposed to the life-stream, and Tifa was watching over him. :cry:
