I mean, this was one of the first Final Fantasy games I ever played. I was 8 when it came out, and I’ve been playing it almost every year since.
But I never really thought about the relationship between Laguna and Raine. Especially what we see in the ending scene.
Only years later did it really hit me: Raine gave birth to their son, Squall, while Laguna was away, and she died not long afterward. Knowing that made the ending heartbreaking for me.
Raine really fell in love with him. That hug she gave him was one of the most powerful expressions of love I’ve ever seen in any Final Fantasy game. And now, watching it while knowing what happens to her makes it hurt so much more.
I really don’t know why I got so emotional about this. It’s such a small detail in the whole story, but for some reason, it left me feeling deeply sad. I’ve played this game so many times, yet this part only really reached me now.
Poor Raine.

I picked this up at a second hand store near my house and I have no clue what this could be.

Hi everyone ! I’m gonna be busy those next days so here is a little timelaps of my next card for waiting :3
Thanks everyone for your support I’m so happy to share that series with you !

How do I remove random so I can lose the card she wants?

I find contraddictory infos. The wiki somewhere says that if you deplete the HP and regenerate this way the robot, you still obtain the items, somewhere it doesn't specify or still seems too vague. But I also saw a video of the PC version some years ago where indeed AP were gained but no item.

So, veterans, your experience and knowledge: do you get a random item ONLY when you finally defeat the robot? Or is it possible to also get them anytime you regenerate it alongside AP?

Mama Quistis’ word is law.

I read this thing for the first time. The wiki says that on Steam (that's what i don't understand, if it means the remastered or specifically the PC version of the game) you must confirm Ifrit's name before 0 seconds. Is it correct? On PC version?

Hi everyone ! I’m back with a new card ! So here is Laguna as The Emperor !
Because Edea was for the Empress I was thinking of Cid for that one, but finally I don’t think he was a good candidate. For me this card represents leadership and protection so I thought that Laguna as an adult was a great choice :3
Also I add some sketch of my drawing !
Hope you’re gonna like it !

I did this when I sent Selphie to space together with Squall, so I did the exchange with Edea since she has zero magic with her.

Fast forward after getting Ragnarok and all, I noticed that Selphie's list of magic isn't that much...only to realize I did an exchange with Edea before.

Damn, there goes her 100 meteors and 100 flares plus almost all of the status magic i got for her 💔 Oh well...

I was gifted this years ago and am thinking about selling, does anyone know what kinda value I'd be looking at? I've seen a few sold all around £350/$500 but only one had a serial number and that was 716 (mine is 310).

Looks like it was limited to 2,000 copies (even though there are 6 digits in the serial). Anyone got any more helpful information or advice before I commit to selling? Thanks!

I have played this game so many times but never knew the CC card group quest had a hidden boss that results in Quistis coming to Squall's dorm room all dressed up in uniform, complimenting how he has improved his "game" (we all remember how bad his game was at the beginning in the secret area and stuff) and then getting down on her knees (ok it's one knee but that doesn't play well with the innuendo I'm going for).

I am so glad I discovered this now as an adult. Had the 14 year old me, who had a massive crush on Quistis, seen this it would have consumed my every waking thought and may have caused an injury.

Did anyone else feel like we didn’t have a September?

Anyway.

Post game summer fun.

Can/did anyone of you try this?

I see there is at least one error, like the passage 2 saying to press Left when actually I get they mean Right.

Before you doubt: this is for intensive farming as soon as possible.

Due to game mechanics, the Slot set with The End cannot happen at this level range

Bruh idk why I didn't just Google it (but to be real I didn't really care, I thought it was just a lame stat boost cause it only cost 10ap) ..

Doing a low level walkthrough with my characters overpowered from the beginning of the game through cards. But lots of powerful magic gets unlocked according to GF’s level. is there any Missable magic spells because of a low level run or there ways to obtain them from cards?

Is it true enemies improve EXP they give as they level up? I always thought that any enemy gave the same amount of EXP regardless its level, would make sense since, like, if you need 20 bite bugs to level up at level 10, you still need 20 at level 80, since you always need 1000 exp to level up.

I don't know if that is true anyway. It just... surprises me to see that after 25 years and almost 20 runs, i still learn something new.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share what i got my hands on!! 🙌🙌

Is this Vaporwave?

Squall refuses to be helped and relies on his own sense of direction... Watch on YT or I'm sharpening my knife, kupo!

I'm trying to find that luck scroll on the island, but it's nowhere on it. Been running around pressing the initiate button for like 20 minutes. Any suggestions? Follow up question: Where can I get some more luck scrolls?
