You can slash for 99,999. You dont have to. So dont complain about it. The game is as easy or as hard as you make it, given the amount of custominzation available.Originally Posted by UltimateSpamGrover
gibbi, the main site here has the rom and the emulator. Check it out.
I'm not complaining about it. I just like FFs that are actually DIFFICULT.Originally Posted by TheAbominatrix
EDIT: ...and if you can slah the enemies for 99,999 damage, at least give the monsters a little more HP.... :rolleyes2

Final fantasy goes in cycles, they're pretty predictable.
1. Duh, it's first, and very good for it's time.
2. Pale imitation storyline of above, only innovative new system.
3. Disappointment
4. Interesting system, nothing original story.
Mystic Quest. Something so different it shouldn't even be in the same series.
5. Same as 4.
6. Much improved story, nothing impressive system.
7. Incredible work, and also very good for it's time (and still)
Tactics. See mystic quest
8. See #2
9. See #3
10. See #4
11. See mystic quest
X-2. See #5
12. I'm just guessing that it will resemble #6
13. I have my fingers crossed, and it may even be the first on the PS3
See, it's all just a cycle. We're just in the lowest point of the cycle.
(This is all in my opinion by the way...)
3. Didnt play enough of it to accurately rate it.1. Duh, it's first, and very good for it's time.
2. Pale imitation storyline of above, only innovative new system.
4. Too many deaths, but otherwise interesting.
5. It was a well done FF.Mystic Quest. Something so different it shouldn't even be in the same series.
6. Look at #5 but slightly better
Tactics Advance. Very Crappy sequel7. Incredible work, and also very good for it's time (and still)
Tactics. See mystic quest
8. This is where it started going downhill to the point of graphics > difficulty.
9. See #8, but the storyline and difficulty improved a little.
10. This is Squaresoft's worst FF to date
11. Even though this should be called FF:Online instead of FFXI, it is truly the best in the series. (but its $12.95 a month X_X) This was the first FF with no random battles, and it was done quite well.
X-2. See #10
12. As long as it isnt X or X-2, I'm happy

I don't have XI, what's the battle sistem there like?Originally Posted by UltimateSpamGrover
FFXI Battle System (might be recycled in XII)
It's somewhat a mix of ATB and Real-Time
It's all a matter of opinion. FFX sold a lot of copies, so from a financial standpoint the series is not going downhill. It wasn't my favorite, and I wasn't able to get 'in' to it like the other games, but that might just be because I'm getting older.

NONE of them are difficult by that point in the game. At the end of the game your characters can be maxed out in many ways. X allowed the 99,999. If you want difficulty, dont max them out so they can do that much damage!Originally Posted by UltimateSpamGrover
FF, especially in games like X, VIII, and VII allow so much customization you can make your character into anything you want. You can breeze through the game with ultra-power characters, or you can make it tough by not maxing your characters out. It's player option, not game fault.
AAAAARRRRGGGGGGHHHH!!! IT IS NOT A SEQUEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Originally Posted by UltimateSpamGrover
It is the same style of game in the same line of FF just as FF2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 weren't all sequels to FF1. Geez.
Now that THAT is off of my chest, I can continue this intriguing conversation with my 2 cents.
The FF series isn't in decline IMO. Nor is it getting better though. Sure After placing the gems that 6 and 7 were, its hard to follow up with that kind of excellence time and time again. 8 recieved criticism, and still does because many feel its not as goo as 7 was. If people stop comparing these games like they are all sequels to eachother and take them as individual games, there wouldn't be a problem. Same with 9 and X. 9 went back to the "basics" of the FF series and those who adored 7 and 8 knocked it for being "kiddish" and "cartoony". But if you play the game for what is was and not compare to other games it actually turns out that its a really good game. The biggest complaint to X was the length. I agree it was short, but in its shortness, it was highly entertaining and truly a masterpiece. X-2 did pale and CAN be compared to X because it IS a true sequel. However X-2 DID complete the Spira story.
No matter what Square does to the FF series there will be people knocking it and people glorifying their move. Ether way, you are ALL going to buy FF games and play them, so.... I guess Square is doing well. FF games MUST be getting better or else we all would not be here reading these posts and writing in them. If you trul feel they are getting worse, why are you here on an FF board when you feel there are better games to play. go play them, post on another forum about how great they are and quit trying to say FF series is dying/on a downward slope.

Current RPGs: Final Fantasy XII
Why does everyone think FF7 was so great? The ONLY reason it sold a lot was because at that time consoles were becoming really popular and FF7 represented a new age in graphical quality. Thats it. It doesnt have a story thats better than the others it doesnt have the character development or anything. All it had was graphics and you can't just judge a game on that. It's a good game but FFIX and X blew it out of the water. The only reason no other FF game did what 7 did in terms of sales and general popularity is beacause FF8 was a total flop and left a bad taste in peoples mouths. Also, with games like X-2 and XI who can blame people for not getting into the series? I really hope Square-Enix comes back with a really good game in FFXII though. Cause if they don't who knows how much there already slipping popularity will fall? But a real easy solution to get out a downward spiral is to kick the Enix boyz out and get back to basics like in IX and best of all, X.

X-2 and XI have sold tons of copies, so I dont know what you mean about people not getting into the series.
As for VII, although I dont agree with people who say it's the best, saying people bought it because of graphics is ridiculous. The amount of people VII drew into being FF fans is astounding, and I highly doubt all of them are like "Wow check out those graphics!" especially those who've played it long after it's release.
First of I REMEMBER people back when ff7 was released who bought it without knowing what an RPG was!!!!!!!! Why? Because of the graphics. And while X-2 and XI have sold lots of copies they still havent sold nearly as much as any one of its predecessors for PS1 or 2.
So because of people you know buying it for the graphics, that means everyone did? That's ridiculous. And if they bought it for the graphics, why did they continue to play it? Not for the graphics. And why, when a person now picks up VII for the first time, do they enjoy it? NOt for the graphics.
And show me proof. Prove to me that they havent sold as much. My point, however, is not that they've sold as much, but rather that they sold a lot, and they did.
