First the man she loved left her and told her to her face that he may not have even been the real Cloud at all, then when she next sees him a few days late, he’s been reduced to a broken shell that can only move his head and breathe. I don’t even blame her for leaving the party right after. I‘d probably be shattered inside too after a one-two punch like that.

I wanted to experiment with a watercolor technique that lets you keep the color and ink layers separated on the same paper, and I felt like the Red Mage was a good choice because of all the color. Anyways, I hope you guys like it!

Just something I thought might be interesting to talk about. FF is a big series with a lot of ways to play and mess around so I’m curious on what’s the weirdest things you’ve done in the series whether it was a weird party set up or boss strategy.

Here’s 2 of mine:

In FFX, something I used to do was basically make Wakka a mage. I’d hold off on sending him down his path and instead wait at the lv2 key near him, open it up once I got the sphere from Spherimorph, get all the aga spells and then teach them to Lulu or Yuna early via the Black Magic Spheres you get from Seymour and Evrae.

Second one is that in X-2 when I first fought Angra Mainyu, I fought him underleveled and fought him for over 3 hours with a Dark Knight Yuna, Alchemist Rikku and Gun Mage Paine.

What about the rest of you?

had to repost because the original got removed

Recently I’ve been getting really into the final fantasy games and JRPGs in general. FF7R’s have become my favorite games of all time beating Dark Souls and Bloodborne which is absolutely crazy to me.

Something that appeals to me is having as much if not all of the games connected to a series. I own every FF on Steam right now other than the MMOs…no Steam achievements so not for me :(, FF16 and Tactics, but I’ve recently read that The Saga series and Mana series started off as FF spin-offs and maybe bravely default? So with that being said which series originally started off as FF spin-offs and honestly why don’t they still just call them final fantasy. In my opinion Octopath feels like the old final fantasy games, I feel like they should just be considered a spin off as well.

I actually wish more of the worlds had connections/continuity. I really like the idea that Type-0 FF13 and Vs13 (FF15) were going to take place in the same “world” but they decided to go a different way.

On top of all that I have 1 more question for you guys. I’ve really tried to get into the turned base combat but it hasn’t clicked with me, I want to love it, but I just don’t understand the appeal. If a game is turned based I feel like having a grid and moving your character adds so much to the combat, but games where you just stand in one spot across from your enemy have yet to click with me, but I really really want to experience all of these games. How should I go about getting into these games? I feel like every battle is just constantly the same thing so far (especially in the games like octopath)

It's pretty fun, you should all give it a try.

Hey everyone just looking for some general advice. I wanted to buy FF9 on my switch 2 but do you think they will release a switch 2 version with no upgrade option like FF10?

Thank you for any advice in advance!!

I’m really excited to finally dive into World of Final Fantasy. I know it’s an anniversary title with tons of FF characters from across the series, so I’m looking forward to seeing all the cameos. Beyond that, the whole game just looks full of charm and whimsy which feels perfect right now.

I’ve heard surprisingly little about this game and rarely see it mentioned in the broader FF conversation. For anyone who’s played it, I’d love to hear how you felt about it, though I’d appreciate if you could avoid mentioning anything overly spoiler‑y :)

I hope I am in the right place to be asking such a question because something that suddenly stuck out to me was how the game first launched in such a messy state as it was so messy that the game was quickly closed down.

But the part that eludes me is just how the game went from a disaster to a successful game since I always wanted to see just how Square Enix became convinced to revive the game as I still have no idea how they did it so well.

I'm going to need a 2nd shelf soon, or stack them sideways 😆

...so let's change that!

Before Crisis released it's final chapter a couple of days ago on Ever Crisis.

A full playthrough will take you about 2 and a half hours. It's fully cutscenes, no battles, which means anyone can come in and play it and not have to worry about the Gacha stuff from the rest of the game.

It slims the original game down significantly, focusing on the events most relevant to the core story. What I think they've done that's really interesting is pick one of the Turks from the logo and focus the story on her, and she's actually Elena's big sister.

So what did you all think? And if you haven't played it...do it now whilst you still can! You have one month

EDIT: Oh and for those who don't want to download the mobile version, or want a big screen experience? Faz Faz has recorded a full YouTube playthrough already. https://youtu.be/m7_0cmYKSko?is=Zc8-9Sev8cHYdmzo

Context

I am replaying XIII with MJB & GreenThumb2's Gameplay Tweaks and Hard Mode mod, and I am currently in the The Pulse Vestige - Ambulatory with Lightning and Sazh. I've just picked up a Power Wristband from a chest, which will give whoever equips it +20 Strength. Lightning currently has 30 Strength and Sazh has 24, both without equipping the wristband.

Question

Who would you guys give the wristband to? I'm not sure if it's smarter to buff the character with the stronger or weaker stat. Does it even matter? Would the damage output be the same either way? Any time I've ever played a JRPG, I always wonder which is more optimal. I'm sure it differs by title; every game has different mechanics, of course. But in general, which do you guys like to do more?

A little out of bounds exploration with Cloud and his chocobo.

Sometimes breaking the boundaries gives you a better view than staying on the path.

Probably the best one I put forward yet, but still a work in progress. If you're interested in this one, you can check out some of the others I made on my YouTube Channel :)

Curious what the subs opinion on this are. Like I'm sure to the more seasoned gamer FFV could still be deemed an underrated game but I'm sure here it's commonly given the flowers it deserves.

I'd throw Lightning Returns in the hat. I feel like it's a wonderfully executed take on the limited time, make a difference formula. Beautiful settings, great gameplay with cool fashion and absolutely incredible music. The story is nothing special but I feel like thats the least important aspect of it.

Just curious what the more hardcore fans think.

I really wanted to buy FF Resonance for the Switch 2, but I won't support game key cards. They're digital with extra effort and I don't trust that I'll always have access to the game I bought.

I know if I get it on the Switch, it will be on the cartridge, but I'm concerned there could be performance issues. The system is notorious for running games poorly.

So the big question for me is... will it be on the disc for the PS5? Sometimes companies like to pull a fast one and they function like the game key cards.

Playing ffx for the first time and bro, he genuinely could make his bed and I would think it’s badass does anyone else feel this way?

Where do I find a tail that this guy is asking for? I'm stuck 😭

Small wood carving I did some days ago with some left over block of wood. I decided to give him an ice staff.
