Thread: Fewest completions?

  1. #1

    Default Fewest completions?

    Of the FFs you've actually beaten, which have you completed the fewest amount of times and why?

    I'm tied for FFII, FFV and FFVI, each of which I have beaten once. For FFII I always seem to get about halfway through and then just stop, FFV something always happens to my save, and FFVI I admittedly didn't enjoy as for some reason it felt as though there was too much dungeon crawling... odd because I adore every other aspect of the game. Saying that, I've beaten Awful Fantasy III (Something Awful's hack of FFVI) countless times as I appreciated its humour and unusual difficulty tweaks.

    Technically speaking, I've also beaten FFIV once; the PSX version and once on the SNES, which is an easier version anyway and I don't count it (not to be confused with Easytype, a different game again).

    Same goes for FFIII; once on NES, once on DS, and then also once blatantly cheating with a team of FEOKs right from the beginning. NES version was because of it suddenly losing my attention, DS version because I only just got it :P

    I've only beaten FFI and FFX once. FFI for Eyes on Plays, and I just finished FFX today, or if it was yesterday.

    FFIX and FFIV.

    FFIV I just didn't like, and FFIX is my newest one so I've only gotten around to playing it once

    FFXII because I haven't had time to play through again since getting it, and FFIX. The fact that I've only played all the way through FFIX once is rather ironic since it's my second favourite in the series. I have gotten half to three quarters of the way through several times though. I just don't have as much time as I used to to play games as long as RPG's often, particularly when new games come out.

    VII. One time was enough.

    I still need to beat IX, X-2 and XII for a first time.

    I'm half way through my second playthrough of XII. :P Life got crazy and I literally didn't have the chance to continue playing it. I'm definitely going to play it when I get my PS2 back in a couple of weeks. :P

    I've only finished IX once for some reason. I really loved it, but I just never got around to trying it again. It's on my list.

    I finished VII once because it's just not worth a second playthrough.

    I think I've beaten ff2 twice, but I can't say for certain.
    ff3 once (eyes on plays thanks you!)
    ff4 once
    I think I've played ff6 twice but I'm not for certain
    ff9 once
    tactics-advanced once.

    of course ff1 and ff tactics tie for 0 completions.

    I've beaten 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 12 once. I don't like playing games more than once if they don't have New Game+ or an upgraded release

    X just found it to be a lil meh, i mean don't me wrong it was beautiful, but i hated Sphere grids and i wasn't thrilled with Yuna. got nothing against her but i don't think shes that great, cept her Bowie eyes, they rule.

    I would play XII again because it was fun to play and fran and Balthier rock. and Ashe is kick ass and Basch is awesome but under used. (he should have been the hero)
    never finished IX, cos the cast didn't grab me as much,

    VII and VIII a few times

    Eternity is just an empty illusion and is why feelings of being able to believe in one another are born...

    Id advise you guys definitely to replay FFIX. Funny thing for me was that I didnt love FFIX all that much first time I played it. It was only after replaying the game that it really hit me how amazing it was. Then again, maybe I was too young when I first played it to really appreciate it.


    Ive complete FFIX loads, FFX a few times, FFXII almost twice, FFVIII almost twice and FFVII 1 and a bit times. I might carry on with FFVII some more now.

    Trust me Veevs, it's on my list!

    I have it on my PSP ready to go. I'm just distracted with XI and XII, right now. I think I got to disc 3 before my brother deleted my data. I've just felt that I can't be assed into playing, especially since the first disc is so painfully slow...

    ^Yeah...the thing is, its not the kind of game you should play when you're in a rush. Its the kind of game you need time to appreciate and you need to spend hours in a row instead of 15 minutes here and there. When you've got a decent amount of time, sit back, relax and enjoy.

    Of the ones I played, I only finished the following once:

    II-- because the game is terrible. It's not even bad for a final fantasy, it's just /bad/.

    VIII-- I might have /eventually/ gone ahead with a second playthrough, but it was eating up a few gigs on my hard drive and I didn't have any real desire to play it again, so into the recycle bin it went. No regrets.

    Tactics-- I've tried to play again at least twice and then I felt like "eh, whatever." Come to think of it, I may as well delete that one too. Who am I kidding? *frees up another 537 MB.*

    In order from fewest to the most completion)

    Never played II, III, X and XII

    V - Lol always stopped middle of the game, not sure why.
    IV - same as V
    IX - same as IV, although I am in the process of beating it this time
    I - Once. Will get back to this once I get a DS
    Tactics - Twice
    VII - Twice/Thrice
    VI - More than 3 times
    FFTA - More than 5 (1 save game that reached 300 hours )
