Let's Play Stand Guard Once More

[Spooniest]

I tried doing a lets play of this before but I was doing it wrong. Sanky to shion for showing me how to do it right.

This is a mod of Final Fantasy III (v1.0) that I made years ago for lulz.

Enjoy!

Final Fantasy VI000.png

I'm gonna play my hack of Final Fantasy VI and make fun of myself a lot

Final Fantasy VI001.png

I changed it! I think one of Sky Render's versions called it the "Demon War." Yes I know it is wrong, but it takes up fewer spaces. :3

Final Fantasy VI002.png

Yeah cuz those aren't destructive to the environment or anything

Final Fantasy VI003.png

MAGIC EVERYWHERE IN THIS BITCH

Final Fantasy VI004.png

A quote popularly attributed to Georges Santayana.

Final Fantasy VI005.png Final Fantasy VI006.png
Final Fantasy VI007.png Final Fantasy VI008.png

SPOILER: Biggs and Wedge are toast.

Final Fantasy VI009.png Final Fantasy VI010.png
Final Fantasy VI011.png

We're going to be much more concerned with green-haired-destroyer-of-worlds.

Final Fantasy VI013.png

Time to march through that snowfield! The theme that plays here is known as "Death On The Snowfield," but it's actually the main theme of the game's main character, who will be revealed straightaway! Huzzah! Off to a great start here!

Final Fantasy VI016.png

I changed it :3 Cuz I wanted to

Final Fantasy VI017.png

Since the skill slots for the MagiTek Armors (as piloted by Dead and Deader) got all these "????????" skills added to them when I hacked it, I decided to give them actual skills. Nothing earth-shaking, but now they can try for an instakill attack with the Blaster. It's bitchin when it works

Final Fantasy VI018.png

Yes, green-hair lady, kill them in one hit with your Bio Blaster. Thanksssss

Final Fantasy VI020.png

I played this game for years without knowing that the second battle with the guards is skippable. If you don't walk in a straight line, the battle never triggers. Ha!

Final Fantasy VI022.png Final Fantasy VI023.png

Then they get surrounded...the game is trying to teach you about the battle system early, so you won't be shocked to get pincer attacked for the first time...I kinda wish they'd have saved it and let it shock me. :/ Oh well.

Final Fantasy VI028.png Final Fantasy VI029.png

So I get attacked again, and this time I...wait, green-hair lady can use Bio Blast to one-shot this battle too. So nothing to see here, move along

Final Fantasy VI030.png

I think they are suspicious

Final Fantasy VI031.png

Woolsey calls this a Repo Man and Slattery calls it "Highway." So I combined them into "Highwayman..." LOLZ

Final Fantasy VI032.png

That's all for tonight. You like, iz good

[chionos]

And still of a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
A highwayman comes riding
Riding--riding--
A highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.


I'll quote you spooniest, if I may:


MOAR

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI033.png

When last we left our intrepid heroes, they were committing a war atrocity and then hiding in a cave

Final Fantasy VI034.png Final Fantasy VI035.png

Why do they have to ram the wall? Is it too hard to burn down with a fire beam or something

Final Fantasy VI036.png Final Fantasy VI037.png

This guy...doesn't mess around

Final Fantasy VI038.png

Now we fight-a da boss!

Final Fantasy VI039.png Final Fantasy VI040.png
Final Fantasy VI041.png

They splain this stuff to you, it's your fault if you die

Final Fantasy VI042.png

In this fight Bio Blast is useless cuz it'll hit the shell, so I go with TekMissile.

Final Fantasy VI047.png

w00t

Final Fantasy VI048.png

Stating the blindly obvious like Counselor Troi never could

Final Fantasy VI049.png

Intelligent input, Wedge why don't you just have another beer then

Final Fantasy VI050.png

I've got a bad feeling about this

Final Fantasy VI051.png Final Fantasy VI052.png
Final Fantasy VI053.png Final Fantasy VI054.png

Imagine the reviews if the game ended like that

Good morning to you! I will be back in a while with m0AR

[Pumpkin]

What did I show you how to do?

Good LP spoons

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI000.png

So the green haired destroyer of worlds wakes up in a bed with a creepy old guy staring at her! This isn't weird...?

Final Fantasy VI004.png

...In the best gorram RPG ever made, so stop complaining

Final Fantasy VI005.png

I need an adult ARVIS: I am an adult!

Final Fantasy VI006.png

If the game started here you'd wonder if she was drunk or something, but actually her head hurts because she EXPLODED, what the hell game?

Final Fantasy VI008.png

Mind control! Twice as fast as breaking someone's spirit and just as demoramalizing!

Final Fantasy VI009.png

I'd be freaking out too, that means you don't know where your food is

Final Fantasy VI010.png

Is this guy a doctor or something?

Final Fantasy VI011.png

Garth...that was a haiku.

Final Fantasy VI012.png

The green haired destroyer of worlds has a name!

Final Fantasy VI013.png

Once again, is he a doctor or something cuz he sure seems to know a lot

Final Fantasy VI014.png

Those brown things are dogs, I take it from the barking noise

Final Fantasy VI016.png

This all just went south quick

Final Fantasy VI017.png

And this guy seems pretty upset

Final Fantasy VI018.png

Durrr what are the things

Final Fantasy VI019.png

MISSION 1!

Final Fantasy VI020.png Final Fantasy VI021.png

So he ushers me out of the house, prolly cuz I did steal the Elixir out of his Grandfather Clock

NEXT TIME

Final Fantasy VI022.png

Durr

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI000.png

So she gets caught trying to sneak out the back way

Final Fantasy VI001.png

And escapes into the Caves of Narshe

Final Fantasy VI003.png

Terra gets caught a lot

Final Fantasy VI004.png

Oh trout

Final Fantasy VI007.png

You did not see it but she fell down the hole

Final Fantasy VI008.png

Dream sequence!

Final Fantasy VI009.png

This is Kefka. Don't feel bad for hating him, everybody hates Kefka

Final Fantasy VI010.png Final Fantasy VI011.png

Final Fantasy VI012.png

He's kind of a dick

Final Fantasy VI013.png Final Fantasy VI014.png

Final Fantasy VI015.png Final Fantasy VI016.png

And this Ghastra guy doesn't seem very nice either

Final Fantasy VI017.png

But on to better things! Time for a new character

Final Fantasy VI018.png

He looks shocked

Final Fantasy VI019.png

another haiku

Final Fantasy VI020.png Final Fantasy VI021.png

Final Fantasy VI022.png

Bull trout! Anyway it looks like things are moving forward

Final Fantasy VI023.png Final Fantasy VI024.png

Final Fantasy VI025.png

Yeah and they don't even give a smurf

NEXT TIME

Final Fantasy VI026.png Final Fantasy VI027.png

POLITICAL DRAMA

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI028.png

I've just about had it with Old Man who knows everything

Final Fantasy VI029.png Final Fantasy VI030.png

"Our friends in Figaro" was an edit I made as a result of a conversation with my brother...I don't remember the rationale behind it, but it's got alliteration :3

Final Fantasy VI000.png

SWOOP SWOOP

Final Fantasy VI001.png

Is she dead or sumpin'

Final Fantasy VI002.png

Then the ever-tenacious Marshal shows up

Final Fantasy VI003.png

Only cuz you suck at fighting

Final Fantasy VI004.png



Final Fantasy VI005.png

Now are the moogles!

Final Fantasy VI006.png

Kickass

Final Fantasy VI007.png

If you hide here until everybody walks by...

Final Fantasy VI008.png

Then move here right before the last guy goes by...

...You can get to the Marshal before a battle even triggers

Final Fantasy VI009.png

...Like so!

Final Fantasy VI010.png

Most people don't realize that the Marshal won't start using his Charge attack until after both dogs are beaten. So I leave one alive to cripple his battle strategy. Take that game!

NEXT TIME

Final Fantasy VI017.png

VICTOLY

[chionos]

Moogles! woo-hoo.

[Also: lazy ass, fight all the fights! =P]

When are we going to get a Final Fantasy Moogles game?

When!?

How is this not a thing already?

Final Fantasy: The War of the Moogles
starring Mog as King Mog the Cuddly
and Queen Meg the Cute-as-a-button
and Princess Mag the Squeeky

Against the evil Tonberry empire led by King Stabby the Slasher King
And Choppy the Chef, a good Tonberry who helps the Moogles defeat his own people, because all he wants to do is stab vegetables, not Moogles.

Am I off topic? Sorry Spoons, but this should be a thing. Can't help myself. Play on, bro.

[Formalhaut]

Good LP! Keep it up!

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI000.png Final Fantasy VI001.png

Final Fantasy VI002.png

So this Locke guy picks up Terra and runs like hell...bonus points if you catch the subtle SotN reference here.

Final Fantasy VI003.png Final Fantasy VI004.png

Moogles were originally mentioned here but I rewrote it... :>

Final Fantasy VI005.png

Mind fog eh? You really need to get that looked at

Final Fantasy VI006.png

Amnesia is a side effect of concussions, so there's usually dizziness and vomiting involved...but we can't have Terra being not sexy, can we? :3

Final Fantasy VI007.png

After he took my circlet off...I need an adult LOCKE: I am an adult!

Final Fantasy VI008.png Final Fantasy VI009.png

That seems suspiciously specific

Final Fantasy VI010.png Final Fantasy VI011.png

So I try to go back into the town but this guy catches me, so it's southward ho!

Final Fantasy VI012.png Final Fantasy VI013.png

Every game from this era has enemies where you're just like "screw these guys"...usually they appear right at the beginning. Black Wind and Leaf Bunny are two of these...

Final Fantasy VI014.png

Here is a castle in the middle of the desert, Figaro, I'd presume (If I hadn't already played this about a zillion times)

Final Fantasy VI015.png

I'm gonna go for a full Veldt run this time cuz I'm bored...you have to encounter an enemy formation at least once for that formation to appear on the Veldt. This means you spend the first half of the game basically collecting monster formations, and you can even get redundant formations (say one Leaf Bunny and two Leaf Bunnys and a Black Wind). I try to cut down on these redundant formations, in order to make the Veldt go quicker.

Final Fantasy VI016.png

Damn right you better let me in, I'm here on important green-haired-girl-delivery business

Final Fantasy VI017.png Final Fantasy VI018.png

Final Fantasy VI019.png

So he looks her over and she naturally gets a little peeved at him

Final Fantasy VI020.png

Another haiku

Final Fantasy VI021.png

Edgar: "That's who I think I am. Who the hell are you"

Final Fantasy VI022.png

Locke tries to horn in on Edgar's not-so-subtle schtick here...

Final Fantasy VI023.png

...So Edgar whispers something to him and he's off, leaving this defenseless lady right after saying he'd never leave somebody helpless when they've lost their memory? :/

NEXT TIME

Final Fantasy VI024.png

Doesn't seem like such a bad guy though

[chionos]

Oh, man. Full Veldt run. That's bold.

[Spooniest]

Wouldn't be the first time. :3

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI001.png

See, like I said, not a bad guy

Final Fantasy VI002.png

A fair question

Final Fantasy VI003.png

Uh...

Final Fantasy VI004.png



Final Fantasy VI005.png

Pervert

Final Fantasy VI006.png

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing Terra

Final Fantasy VI007.png

And he just leaves??? Ok

Final Fantasy VI008.png

Terra is complaining

Final Fantasy VI009.png

So let's explore the castle! As for this, tell ya who's got two thumbs and ain't afraid of Ghastra...THIS GUY

er...gal

Final Fantasy VI010.png Final Fantasy VI011.png

Haha, n00b

Final Fantasy VI012.png

Technically, a Star Wars quote in a Final Fantasy mod should shut down the internet

Final Fantasy VI013.png

Ha! This gal wins my favorite person in the Castle award

Final Fantasy VI014.png Final Fantasy VI015.png

...Uh, yeah, about that

Final Fantasy VI016.png

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

Final Fantasy VI017.png

I like to think that she does eventually end up marrying him, but there had to be some awkward questions about the chainsaw and hockey mask

Final Fantasy VI018.png

Sounds like trouble's a-brewin'

Final Fantasy VI019.png

Oh so another playable character? But this is no ordinary playable character

Final Fantasy VI020.png

Once, in Ancient China, there was a legend that a certain young monk would grow up and become the world's most skilled warrior, and defeat a great evil. There would be 1000 years of peace after this warrior's victory, and all would hail his valiant deeds.

Final Fantasy VI021.png Final Fantasy VI022.png Final Fantasy VI023.png Final Fantasy VI024.png

That young monk was on a train that was suplexed by Sabin Rene Mutha Smurfin Figaro.

NEXT TIME!

Final Fantasy VI025.png

The real question is, are you gonna feed me cuz I'm wafer-thin :3

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI000.png

The original Woolsey is "anything that moves." I changed it cause it made the Chocobos nervous. Though if you think about it, you can put a skirt on anything :3

Final Fantasy VI001.png Final Fantasy VI002.png

Settled with a coin toss eh? That seems a stupid thing to do when the governance of a nation is at stake

Final Fantasy VI003.png

They didn't feed me so much as a scone! The hell!

Final Fantasy VI004.png Final Fantasy VI005.png

And heeeeeere's Kefka!

Final Fantasy VI006.png Final Fantasy VI007.png

I'll quote Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw here, to give you an idea how I feel about Kefka:

"I liked how the over-arching story can be summarized in less space than a pamphlet."

SHOWN: THERE'S A GUY WHO'S TRYING TO DESTROY THE WORLD BECAUSE HE'S A DICK

Final Fantasy VI008.png

He really is a giant ass

Final Fantasy VI009.png Final Fantasy VI010.png
Final Fantasy VI011.png

And it's not just cuz he's not on your side! He's a dick to everybody, all the time!

Final Fantasy VI012.png

LULZ

Final Fantasy VI013.png

That seemed uncalled for

Final Fantasy VI014.png Final Fantasy VI015.png

It's cold comfort but you do get to hit Kefka on occasion. :3

Final Fantasy VI016.png

I take this opportunity to equip the Mithril Pike that I stole from Mog when you weren't looking

Final Fantasy VI017.png Final Fantasy VI018.png

Final Fantasy VI019.png

So he makes you talk to his two guards (SPOILER: ALSO TOAST) before he'll talk to you directly...what a jerk

Final Fantasy VI020.png Final Fantasy VI021.png

A lot of things are said

Final Fantasy VI022.png Final Fantasy VI023.png

Kefka at least knows how to get to the point quickly...none of this "becoming one with the planet" business, now ;D

NEXT TIME:

Final Fantasy VI024.png

Way to go, Edgar, that'll show him

[Spooniest]

Let's go!

Final Fantasy VI025.png

So Edgar gives Kefka a big line of bull

Final Fantasy VI026.png

And I don't think he's buying it

Final Fantasy VI027.png

Ass!

Final Fantasy VI028.png

That Edgar doesn't refer to Terra by name here means he hasn't learned her name yet. :3 Seemed legit

Final Fantasy VI029.png

Replacing the ellipse here with a simple period speaks volumes about Edgar's emotional state, as well. (lifts teacup with pinky in the air, smokes clove cigarette)

Final Fantasy VI030.png Final Fantasy VI031.png

The line about tea and crumpets was taken direct from the Slattery version.

Final Fantasy VI032.png

I always try to beat Locke to the stairs I succeeded this time, but it's probably because of the dash patch that's built into my mod. :3

Final Fantasy VI033.png Final Fantasy VI034.png
Final Fantasy VI035.png

Can it really piss Locke off so much that people call him a thief that he'd yell at Terra? I think not, hence the change here

Final Fantasy VI036.png Final Fantasy VI037.png Final Fantasy VI038.png Final Fantasy VI039.png

Which explains where he was just now...think about it, Locke has already gone back to Narshe and talked to Arvis about stuff, then brought that info back to Edgar! Fridge brilliance!

Final Fantasy VI040.png

Terra is complaining again

Final Fantasy VI041.png

It must be hard for an RPG to convey a convincing stutter. I always thought it sounded kinda natural at times.

Final Fantasy VI042.png Final Fantasy VI043.png

If you think about it, Terra has no way of knowing at this point who are the "good guys" or "bad guys" or if there's even a right side to take. It's fair enough that she's confused.

NEXT TIME!

Final Fantasy VI044.png

Flip a coin...?
