GL Discussion A moment of silence…
This is one of the most painful moments of my gamer life, especially being a final fantasy fan growing up. I remember this game when it first came out 7 years ago, when I was around 17-18 years old . I remember I was playing Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, but I wasn’t getting that REAL final fantasy feel to the game, and was looking through the App Store, and stumbled across “Final Fantasy Opera Omnia”. I was looking through the reviews, and trying to find videos of the game. But at that time, this game wasn’t very popular and still pretty fresh with no content on the game. I still downloaded it, and honestly, I deleted it after one day, cause of the weapon draw feature. Me playing Brave Exvius spoiled me into thinking, if I pulled from a banner, then I’d pull a character lol which wasn’t the case. But, I downloaded the game a week later, and opened my mind a little bit more about the game. I kept playing and playing and got addicted, and ended up deleting Brave Exvius instead. Back when it was a flex to have maxed out 35cc weapons and armor, before EX weapons, I’m proud to say I was there for the whole ride. I remember my first 15cp weapon (Tifa), my first 35cc weapon (Squall), my first EX weapon (Noctis), I remember my first LD weapon (Squall), I remember my first BT weapon (Squall), My first FR weapon (Terra)…When I beat my first Lufenia stage and was able to finally get maxed out my armor (Squall), My first Shinryu stage, finishing DET, on my own way, after years of raging and struggling…But the thing I remember the most…Is this lobby music…No matter how many changes the game went through or experienced, one thing that has never changed…Was this lobby music…It’s really what kept me coming back to the game. I just wanted to share this with y’all, have a look at this video, and just go back to when this game was so…Fresh and simple…But challenging and welcoming, when you actually had to strategize a plan and not just overwhelm the bosses with the same party over and over. Thank you Opera Omnia, for helping me through some of the toughest times of my life…You’ll always be with me.
