Thread: Thoughts on Final Fantasy 4's ending (not really a spoiler)

    Default Thoughts on Final Fantasy 4's ending (not really a spoiler)

    Well, I just finished Final Fantasy 4 and I've got to say, despite how lame some of the translations are and how crude it seems compared to the later FF's, I really liked it alot. Only one thought really ran through my head at the end though: Kain is such a badass! [I actually picked this name a long time ago.] I'm actually curious, does anyone have an animated gif of the SNES ending where Kain is just standing on that ledge with his helmet off and his hair blowing in the wind? That shot was so rad.

    Anyhoo, what did you guys think of this ending? It seemed good, but somehow, I don't know, incomplete, or something. Anyway.

    I thought it ended well. It felt finished to me. The only thing i didnt like was Edge. What an annoying character. Lucky Rydia didnt take any notice of him at all. And i agree with you that Kain is the man. That was the best part of the ending where hes standing on that cliff

    I still feel that it is the best FF ending. It really felt like everything was truly resolved, and every single loose end was tied up. That game just gives me great feeling whenever I beat it.

    Yeah, I'm going to go back and record it on VHS, try to port it onto comp, and get that scene out of it. If any of you are interested in any part of it lemme know, but this will be my first venture of that kind, haha so it may be a while before I can get back to you with anything.

    Man... Kain... haha,

    Oh and Sephex, I loved With Teeth.

    I wanted to rip the scene to an animated GIF some time ago. If you have an emulator, it's an easy thing.....

    What's to think about, it was a good end to a good RPG. none of this stuff that's left unanswered and mysterious. a lot of stuff is revealed, like what color kain's hair was, which was the number 1 thing people wanted to know while playing. we already knew cecil had whitish-blue grandma hair since he turned into a paladin, so nothing about him at the end. but come to think of it, maybe his hair turned white when he became a paladin. maybe he got so scared at that moment it turned white? btw, I'm sure Edge and Rydia do end up together anyways. She was playing hard to get, that's what stereotypes do.

    I don't know, I like to believe Cecil's hair was already that blueish/purpleish white due to his Lunarian heritage. After all, people who already knew him before he was even made a Dark Knight like Rosa, Kain, and Cid didn't go "OMGWTFHAPPENEDTOYOURHAIRLOL!!!!!!!111!"

    I don't think Cain's hair color ever mattered to me. It's not a story element, it's not a cool ability, and it didn't have any importance. It's hair. Nothing to flip out about.
