    First Final Fantasy

    in Gaming General

    Posted

    Hi, local Final Fantasy expert reporting in.

     

    I:  It's a pretty alright game if you play either the GBA or PSP port of the game.  Original NES game, while really good for it's time, is trash.  It's not my favorite but worth playing eventually IMO.

     

    II:  Same story as I tbh, play either the PSP or GBA port.  For both, the PSP port is better than the GBA but still fantastic either way.

     

    III:  Personally, I never quite cared all that much for III.  The DS port of the game is the best way to play it, form what I've heard the PSP version has all sorts of translation issues.

     

    IV:  One of my top 5 favorite FF games for sure.  The GBA port is the optimal way to play it, I'd probably recommend this one as a good starting point for anyone that hasn't played the games before.  It's got a pretty good story, introduces the mechanics pretty well, and isn't overwhelming with the amount of side-content available.

     

    V:  Another that I don't personally super care about.  The GBA port is, again, the way to go here.

     

    VI:  A masterpiece, personally.  It used every bit of the SNES to the max to make the best Final Fantasy of them all, in my opinion.  The GBA port is still the best version of the game to play.  I could go on about all the little details I love about the game, but that isn't exactly what I'm here to do.  As much as I love this game I absolutely would not recommend it as someone's first Final Fantasy.  While it is a ton of fun, and really good, there's so much potential content that you'd miss out on if you don't know what you're doing.  Without going into spoiler territory, Shadow is a very mysterious character in the game and unless you know exactly how to trigger his story sequences they are missable, and if you miss one of them you cannot see any that follow.

     

    VII:  Stay away from the PC version with a 10 foot pole.  Broken port, and doesn't really do anything well.  Play it on a PSX emulator.  That being said, it's a pretty good title.  It's overhyped as fuck though.  I still like it but don't think it's this god tier game that everyone makes it out to be,

     

    BONUS:  Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core:  PLAY THIS GAME.  PLAY IT.  DO IT.  PSP Emulator.  Get one and play it.   It's a prequel to VII and it's just...so fucking good.

     

    VIII:  My least favorite of all the games.  I think there's a steam version of the game but I haven't tried it.  Just stick to the PSX version probably.

     

    IX:  My second favorite game right behind VI.  It's a loveletter to every game before it, with references and little nods to all the previous games.  I'd suggest to play this last of all of these if you want to understand allt he little references, but otherwise it can be played anytime.

     

    Now I know you said you wanted to stick to emulation, so I wanted to make sure you know that PS2 emulation DOES work.  (Sorry if someone already said this, I honestly didn't read past your post before typing this.)  That being said, I do want to mention:

     

    X:  Probably my third favorite game.  PS2 emulation of it is fine, though if you want to pirate the Steam version, X-HD is beautiful.

     

    X-2:  Don't.

     

    XI:  MMORPG, I don't think the servers are even up anymore?

     

    XII:  Another really good game, the license system is probably my favorite of any of the job systems that any Final Fantasy has used.  It's only on PS2 at the moment, that being said try to get a hold of the International Zodiac Job System version of the game.  They added quite a bit of content.

     

     

     

     

     

    So as a whole, for you I think I'd suggest the following order, given your preferences you listed.

     

    IV, III, I, II, VI, VI, IX.  They're all easy to emulate and I've personally enjoyed them.

     

     

    As a bit of extra content, here's my favorites listed in order.

     

    IV, IX, X, IV, XV, XIV, XII, III, VII, I, II, XIII, V, VIII

     

    XI isn't on that list because I never got a chance to play it.

    3x3 thread!

    Sure why not actually.

     

    They're no no particular order I don't think, but here's a thing.

     

    Spoiler

    mosaiccc0806ea47a7301a5d87b172f94206ae98

     

    Man, I'm going to absolutely get so much shit for my first row most likely.  Anyways though, I wanna do the same thing as my friend dmetri here and talk about them a little

     

    Spoiler

    Misa Amane - Man, not gunna lie, she was probably one of my first anime crushes LOL.  Death Note was forever ago for me and Misa is the first yandere for me.  She's super cute though and her goth aesthetic is just on point.  

     

    Rhajat - First thing that might come to mind is, why not Tharja since Rhajat is just a clone.  Well the thing is, she's absolutely not.  Yes, they share a lot of similar features butt hey are not the same character.  Rhajat is much more human than her previous counterpart.  She actually wants friendship, as shown in her supports (See Selkie for an example).  Not just that, but at leatst she has a reason for falling so hard for the avatar -- him saving her previously.

     

    Yuno Gasai - Speaking of characters that are more than the fanbase make them out to be, hi Yuno.  Man, if watching Mirai Nikki didn't tug at my heart strings.  I won't lie, the extent that Yuno reaches at times in the show is pretty fucked up.  I can admit that.  She's certainly the most unhealthy of the yandere's on this list.  That being said, without getting into too many spoilers for Mirai Nikki, she went through some fucked up shit herself to get to this point.  A situation like hers would leave your pretty mentally and emotionally destroyed.  Again, without getting into too many spoilers, I like the initial Yuno much more than what we find out at the end.

     

    Asuka Langley Sohryu - One of the few tsundere-types that I actually somewhat like.  I feel like her character, at least from what I've seen and remember of Eva, helps drive Shinji to actually be more than a useless sack of shit.  Plus she's a very German character and she gets major props from me for that.

     

    Minori Kushieda - To put it simply, I identify with Minori's situation way too much to not have immediately proclaim her as best girl for me.  Taiga was a close second because some of her tendencies are super cute, but she borders on the annoying tsundere I don't generally like.  Minori on the other hand is precious and deserves happiness. <3

     

    Yui Yuigahama - I really like her generally chipper personality and the fact that she's the only main character to actually break the awkwardness that Yukino and Hachiman create sometimes.  I'm not gunna lie, on a meta level I'm also annoyed of Ice Queens that get their way because they are the Ice Queen and need to be saved.  But it is more than just that, I just think Yui is a much more real character if that makes sense?  That being said, as I was writing this I realized I do actually like Shizuka a lot more but I didn't want to go back and edit the image. Oops.

     

    Satsuki Kiruin - Again - not gunna lie but I really didn't like Satsuki at first.  I knew there was more to her character from the moment I saw her but I just didn't enjoy her much at first.  Then the story revealed her true ambition, and how she went about recruiting the Student Council and I fell in love with her.  As someone who has a hard time finding his own ambitions she really spoke to me about the importance of having said ambition.  

     

    Yukiko Amagi - I keep thinking that I like Rise more...but I just don't.  Yukiko is precious.  She was the first girl I kind of felt an attachment to when I played P4G and I don't regret putting her on here at all.

     

    Hitagi Senjougahara - The perfect mix on yan- and tsundere from what I've seen of the show.  Sometimes you're not sure exactly why a character speaks to you and this is one of those cases.  She just...does.

    I was playing on PC for a while. I believe I was using a bow mostly and probably some sort of assault rifle, I can't quite remember. I wouldn't be opposed to getting back into it if people had interest. I didn't play a lot but it is a ton of fun.

    That being said, my life will be pretty obligated to Legion once it drops so there will be times where I won't be around for anything, but eventually I'll be restricted by daily/weekly resets, so we'll see what happens.

    I'm irrelevant but AMA

    4. I guess I'd be classififed as Liberal? But a lot of the things liberals say now-a-days are fucking dumb too so idk.
    5. jRPG
    6. Super Hero
    7. I think we all know :] [: :] [:
    8. I'm spiritual if anything. But I also don't really care that much.
    9. I haven't done a M-B in forever. I think it's dumb and generalizes to make anyone feel like they could be any of the types.
    10. Electivire
    11. Used to have cats back up in NY, I miss having a pet =(
    12. Not currently, but a couple years ago I did for a little.
    13. Given the choice, I would take tea, but I enjoy both.
    14. I hate the inconsistency among the staff sometimes and how there are clearly problems but because it doesn't "directly break a rule" or the rule being broken "isn't enough to justify" something being done nothing gets done.
    15. #MakeEdgeGreatAgain No but for real, I think the staff is good as it is for now.
    16. Orange
    17. Boxers
    18. 85% of memes are good. 15% of memes are bad. 100% of memes are trash. Just like your waifu. (Real talk for a second, I fucking hate the "dat boi" meme
    19. Not anymore. I don't have the time for that. I'd rather be spending my time playing video games.
    20. QuestionableContent and VGCats
    21. Not currently. Again, I'd rather be playing video games then watching something.
    22. Under the current definition of what that means, no. I'm all for social justice and such, but Social Justice Warriors have turned into witch hunt and circle jerk group. Not all of them of course, but enough for me not to want to associate with them.
    23. If you're cute you have a chance tbh. I like both boys and girls but I'm very picky with both. Even more so with boys.
    24. I'd love to visit my family in Germany.
    25. Breakfast is my favorite meal. If you want a specific food, I know it sounds boring but, bread.
    26. If you can shit talk with me you're probably gucci.
    27. Not Ame :^) No but real talk, someone who is willing to lead but also work with the people they are leading.
    28. Not really.
    29. See all previous answers relating to auth
    30. Not currently. I wanted to get into competetive Overwatch but I can't on this computer. Same goes for raiding when Legion raids come out I'll be looking into getting into that if I have a better PC. Aside form that I've been considering learning how to run Any % in Castlevania SOTN.
    31. WHAT IS LOVE, BABY DON'T HURT ME, DON'T HURT ME, NO MORE.
    32. I'm pretty happy living where I am tbh. It's not so much about where as around who. As long as I could live around friends I'd be cool.
    33. I want to be a singer/actor but I'm too anxious about my voice because tbh I think I sound like shit.
    34. 1v1CC
    35. I'd love to see the other Gen 1 Pokemon who didn't evolve (initially) get Megas. IE Mega Jynx, Mega Electivire, Mega Magmortar and such.
    36. idk tbh. Like I don't know enough aboutt he league champs to really answer this well. Malzahar maybe? ...I hope you were talking about LoL oops.
    37. I'd love to see the Reborn shop actually have anything of worth in it. At least to me there's nothing really hthere lmao
    38. I'm gunna ask you to answer your own questions :]
    39. My loyalty to my friends.
    40. Electric
    41. I don't really. Like there are great people here but I see no value, personally, to look up to anyone.
    42. Every game has been overhyped this year. People honestly need to calm down with the hype trains and shit. You're just setting yourself up for disappointment.
    43. None of them really. As far as I can tell everyone has pretty varied tastes and that's super nice.
    44. :]
    45. Let people believe what they want. I'm not hurting you so you shouldn't be hurting me. If you try to kill me over it we are going to fight though.
    46. EVERYONE TELL ALICE SHE'S CUTE
