Felt much the same about her in Rebirth. Remake Aerith may just be my favorite FF7 character, which makes Rebirth Aerith a major disappointment. She went from feeling like the one who's always going...

I like Blitzball, but I still think it really overstays its welcome for how simple it ultimately is. 2 halves per game, 10 games per league, is just too much, even using Reset Data to the point it...

For the record, you can zoom out on the sphere grid to a certain extent with originally the Select button. Not sure if you just meant it doesn't go far enough.

I find Yuna's naïvité and Auron's general secrecy to kinda go well together because they both center around the same thing - which is that even if you get told something, you don't understand it...

I assume you got the snowmobile ride with Lulu?

Bit surprised to read this considering that I feel FFX goes out of its way in basically every way to sell it and does a good job of it. You only fight Sin itself while it's being massively nerfed...

Over 15 years huh, let's see if it'll hit you any differently now.

All the espers that deal damage scaling based off their HP got pretty broken in Zodiac Age which casually tripled some of their HP values. Exodus also falls under that. Just try and summon them...

I do think the Trial Mode is done very well (the finale being an all-time favorite battle of mine), so maybe worth to tackle that if you feel like it. It even includes a Yiazmat fight that only has...

Funnily enough, I think it's also his best scene. The scene does open up with Balthier complimenting Vaan for a reason; he basically took charge and stood his ground against Joté very well, and in...

Rarely thought about this, interesting question.

The moon theme in FFIV, it's kinda forgettable at best and doesn't make staying outside on the moon exactly pleasant.

The third world theme in...

Finished it just earlier today. Full disclosure, I'm still processing it, and it's very possible I end up changing my mind on some things as it goes. But I hope putting this all into text helps with...

I got a PS5 this Christmas for this game, so yeah, safe to say same. FF7R1 was great and if they keep up that level of character writing and pay off what they've been setting up well it'll be quite a...

Was fun following your XIII-2 runthrough. I enjoyed it more than XIII myself though not enough to ever feel like revisiting it. LR on the other hand I dropped after one play session and never...

Been thinking about this and among the games I play I find it to be exceedingly rare for the original to be the best in the series.

To be fair, there's a lot of games where I simply never...

First one that came to mind is party leader death -> Game Over in FF XIII. If you design the game around it I'm sure you can make it work (though ), but FF XIII is not one such game. The game is fast...

One thing I'd love to see albeit not having too high hopes is playable characters *besides* the originals. Depending on how the story plays out I can see the Turks actually being (guest) party...

I guess FF IX? The only actual postgame it has is Ozma who is about as unsatisfying as a boss can get.

I would be glad for you to elaborate on that actually, as I imagine a lot of people share...

Also at Eruyt, I always appreciate how Vaan doesn't take the Viera's crap and in his naive but straightforward fashion gets them to spill the info they need. It's in that moment I feel like I "get"...

I suppose if they keep up their copyright claiming, this is likely their attempt at making people who don't pay for the game but watch Let's Plays of it, into people who do pay for the game and play...

Well to elaborate a bit at least, it's not exactly "like" it but I do think it takes inspiration from it. Your mileage may vary but I at least don't think it's *entirely* a coincidence that our...

Alright then, if you gotta put it like that I'll take up the challenge.

From my POV the point kinda defeats itself? You say you find the cast of FFX not likable or insufferable. That means they...

Pretty accurate; it's a series that wears on its sleeve that its biggest inspirations are Suikoden and Xenogears and games from that era in general, while adding its own Falcom flavor. But that's...

Agreed. The series was at its best with this trope with Kefka because he was so unapologetic and straightforward about it.

FTR, I'm fairly sure everything Seymour says about easing suffering is a...

It warms my heart to see you deep dive into this game's story, in spite of its popularity I feel like not enough people really do that.

I suppose your analysis is primarily aimed towards the world...
