Best Final Fantasy Endings

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

While I was referring to the entire main cast, not just Squall and Rinoa, it definitely wasn't a matter of translation. It was more of a case of the characters simply not even talking to one another enough, regardless of what they were translated as saying.

Let's not digress, though.

[The Man]

Sounds fair enough. I've yet to experience FFVIII for myself anyway; whether that's good or not is open to debate, but certainly not here.

[Kirobaito]

I'd say VI. But I'm not quite sure why.

[Outsider]

FFTactics.

It's so sad, and yet so perfect.

I'll say FFV. It has the only ending whose events can be altered by actions taken in the game besides FFIX (and to a much larger degree than that). It also has probably the best ending music in the series, from "The Silend Beyond" to "Final Fantasy" (you know, "Prologue") to "The New Origin." It's just great when that last one gets to its most triumphant part just as we're shown the four heroes, one after another, fighting an enemy and going into a close-up and freezing while a list of their level and the abilities they've learned scrolls by.

*FF5 SPOILERS!*



The ending can't be altered that much, really. One difference is that there are different abilities listed on the final ability list every time you play and beat the game (depending on what you've learned), and another difference is how wounded/petrified/zombied characters stay behind in the Void when the others escape. This changes the memory scenes in "A letter to Cid" scene a bit, but it doesn't change the storyline since the characters who were left behind will return anyway when you visit the big tree. Oh well, FFV's ending is still a very good one. There isn't many bad endings in the series, IMHO.

But that still sets it apart from almost all the other endings, which can't be altered at all.

I really loved the ending of X, it was so tragic.

But by the time I played X, it was already well known that X-2 was coming out and what the game was about, so I already knew how X would end. It was still really sad though.

[Carnage]

final fantasy X. i like tragedies dont know why though.

[Jolts]

The only Final Fantasy endings I've seen are with FFVII, FFVIII, FFIX, FFX, FFX-2, and FFT. Out of that, I choose............................FFVII. FFT's was alright, but it was mostly text, and I don't like reading.

[AaronD]

i've only beaten 7 and T i never got through the other i lost intrest...well i got to last boss of FFIV he was so hard that i didnt feel like lvling up so i gave up lol... but out of those two i choose FFT....it kept me wanting more to happen when it was over.

[Snowman]

FF8. it looked like a tradgedy like seven and then pulled through.

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

I liked X's ending quite a bit, Tactics had a good one, as did VI and VII.

[Seryn Kai]

So far, I've played FF's 7-X-2, I mean to get round to playing FF4 on the PS eventually, I played it once, got stuck with Zeromus, and eventually started playing something while I came up with a strategy and then though that maybe I should start again for the purpose of easy, quick, level building. I mean to play 5 and 6 as well sooner or later. My favourite ending was to X-2 because Shuyin's final fate was so moving. I also liked 9's and 10's ending's. 9's isn't really a "happy ending" the way people say, sure most of Gaia's problems were fixed and Zidane and Garnet were reunited, but what about Kuja?! Sure he was a bad guy who tried to wipe everyone out, but he was killed just as he was beginning to value life, it was such a shame even if what he did was wrong.

I really loved the ending of X, it was so tragic.

But by the time I played X, it was already well known that X-2 was coming out and what the game was about, so I already knew how X would end. It was still really sad though.

I really like final fantasy X, and I love the ending, although I would have liked it to be longer! It was so sad....... The bit where Tidus puts his arms round Yuna, though he's all see-through......*Sniff* I knew kinda the end before I played it too, because my friend had the game long before i did, so we talked about it and i knew that Tidus was going to die or dissappear of something. But I still really enjoyed the game, through the bits where Tidus found out Yuna was going to die if she did the final summoning, and the bit where Tidus dissappeared weren't a surprise.

I love all of the FF's I've played equally.........but FFVIII Is great, I love the ending. All of the game, really.

[Snowman]

there wasnt enough FMV in X for me....but teh story was touching
