I did that with Cyan, and possibly Strago. Not sure if I did it with any other characters. Cyan was my favorite character by a mile and felt like the most "main" character* as he was diametrically opposed to Kefka in values, personality, etc and had a personal vendetta. I got him maxed-out on...

That new FFT is just a port of the PS1 version? I thought it at least had the PSP version's script. The alterations to FF7's story in the remake proved how clueless they are. The original FF7 was Hironobu Sakaguchi dealing with the loss of his mom (and that comes though with things like Aerith...

Yeah, the gap between FF16's demo and the rest of FF16 was probably the biggest gap I've seen since 1997 when I played the Bushido Blade demo to death, loved it, then got the full game and it was meh. The character outfits were all changed to worse outfits, none of the levels were as interesting...

My life would have been so much better if I hadn't gotten a Game Boy and Metroid 2 when I was ten. Metroid 2 was so good that it led me to the Super NES and Super Metroid, which in turn opened up the entire SNES library for me to run around chasing the Super Metroid dragon from that point on...

...but why? It's portable. Is someone else at the house playing it while a road trip is going on? I've known a few people who wasted money like this, buying "backup systems" in case their PS2 failed, or parents getting a second system for a sibling when the kids only had one TV. Also had...

Offering+Scimitar = Cyan can shred anything vulnerable to instant death in one strike. I'd farm Hoovers in the Maranda desert that way and he'd essentially level everyone else up.

Totally agreed. Nightreign didn't have any of what made ER great, and felt more like ER: The Arcade Game, a totally different game with some asset-reuse. As a mega Fromsoft dude, I gave it a couple days and gave up. The co-op you did of ER with the wife, was that a "pass the controller back and...

Adrullan Online looks pretty damn good. Not surprised they had to change the name, though. Their main theme is so much like the EQ main theme that it's got a Vanilla Ice "no, ours goes like this, and theirs goes like this" vibe. The EQ-ness in general is palpable. They even show a huge train...

The what? ...lol guess I missed that one People posting their dongs for critique might actually be stupider than claiming to have beaten up three Navy Seals. A new lowest bar has been discovered

Wonder what else that trick works on. Pretty neat. Missing out by not playing the Donkey Kong games. DKC and DKC2 are two of the best platformers of the SNES era. They were magical at the time on a CRT TV, just cutting-edge visuals and smooth AF gameplay. DKC3 - while solid - I never liked...

I think what bothered him is how much people here can act like assholes when they disagree with you. It is what it is. It's the lion's den. It's the Apollo. Iron sharpens iron, etc.

Yeah, I really enjoyed FF4 DS (which I think I played off of you challenging me to do it). Three playthroughs, need to micromanage augments so that you're as strong as possible on the third run to defeat the secret bosses. The normal game is significantly tougher as well, with fights like Milon...

That's unfortunate. Considering a multi-class version of EQ is something I always wanted (and got a Temu version of with personas, hence why I'm so into them), I regret never trying THJ out.

When things like this happen, I'll never understand why the companies in question don't just "absorb" the offending developers/game instead of shutting them down. So many great projects have been C&D'd over the years by game companies that could have instead profited off of giving them an...

Never could get into Ogre Battle as much as I wanted to. It's appealing with all the characters and endings and hidden things. Every fight always ends up just being my one or two super-groups mowing everyone down, though. While we're on SNES memories: My white whale game on SNES was Breath of...

Got my own vaguely similar story, went through nearly all of Link to the Past with just the Master Sword the first time through. Had no idea there were two higher tier swords that do way more damage. Ended up finding the Red Sword at some point really late in the game (like right before rhe...

After a month or so of playing a level here and there, I plowed the rest of this game while I've been struggling with the flu. The grossness of the game paired well with being sick. I'm gonna go ahead and say that it turned out to be a lot more fun than I thought it would be, and can recommend...

Cause these games were mostly necro'd from the PS4 era... not sure what Nintendo was thinking on that one. Pickings are gonna be slim for a while. DK Bonanza looks alright. Just "alright", because it's got that 3D washed-out look that a lot of Switch 1 games had. I'd prefer another DKC Returns...

My main "early memory" of FFT was getting it to begin with. It was my second PS1 game. The system came with the "Squaresoft on Playstation" demo disc, and considering I bought the system for Squaresoft games, I was all over that demo disc. FF7, Bushido Blade, FF Tactics, Saga Frontier. Finally...

What guild are you in? Definitely get your monk's 2.0. The 2.0s for many classes last for a long-ass time. DPS classes, Monk/Zerker especially, basically double in power with their epic 2.0. The next expansion has an item that upgrades the 2.0 to make it even stronger, so it'll continue to be...

It's wild how people just latch onto products (or companies) and defend them against all odds. Fanboyism is a hell of a drug.

DS2 has a bunch of problems, including the weapon tracking. It's my least-favorite of the bunch by a mile. I still 100%'d it twice and played through it about 5 other times. Which demonstrates how good Fromsoft games are, even the worst Soulsborne is a game I double-platinumed.

Saw the title, thought Square Enix had announced a Chrono Trigger sequel or something. Welp, Dragon Quest 11 is probably the best Chrono Trigger sequel anyway.

Could have sworn there was a "28 Months Later" and that this is the fourth movie. I guess there wasn't. A "28 Hours Later" prequel in the style of "24" could be really good. 28 episodes, "real time format", shows us the chaos of the initial Event.

I posted on the official forums about a broken mob that needs fixing, and immediately had a bunch of people jumping in to defend the mob and act like it "added character" to the zone it was in. Or something like that. It really felt like a bunch of bots immediately converging on my wrong think...

Hey don't count them out yet, maybe they'll give us Chrono Trigger and FF9 ports and win over all the fanboys again. Then Final Fantasy 17 might end up being one of the best fighting games of all time. Square Enix bay-bee

Yarp. "But it has voice acting" ...cool, I guess Does it at least have the rewritten script from WOTL?

Didn't know Mustadio was that effective. Yeah, for me usually Monk Ramza and Orlandu ended up doing 90% (at least) of the murdering by endgame while everyone else followed them around buffing. How many versions of this are there? Just PS1 and PSP? I could have sworn there was a newer version...

Grinding Brave stat up, lowering Faith stat, and learning Hamedo = laughably invincible characters. Makes the game super boring though. I'd like if they closed the gap between Orlandu and everyone else in the lategame. Sounds like Meliadoul isn't far off from him in the remake at least. Agrias...

Things Nintendo should be doing: Zelda -Ocarina of Time full top-down 4K visual remake (Demon Souls style) -Zelda 1 HD2D Remake -Zelda 2 HD2D Remake -Link to the Past HD2D Remake -Phantom Hourglass + Spirit Tracks HD remaster dual-pack with normal controls -Link Between Worlds Remastered...

I'd like to play an FFT PS1 that simply lets you back out of multi-fight locations. Seems like they dumped most of the game's worst fights right behind save-walls / multi-part locations just to ensure the player gets trapped. "Just make backup saves, who doesn't make backup saves" is easy for...

Yeah the first run PS3 that can also play PS2 was something I really wanted and just missed getting. To this day it still bugs me because I've got a PS2 taking up shelf space and it's a bit of an eyesore. I'd agree that was the last time being an early adopter made a whole lot of sense, outside...

Oh yeah, Dorter Trade City was a real bastard and forces you to grow up quick with learning the game. Looking up the chocobo fight since I can't remember the name of it, found this: http://www.coronajumper.com/2016/04/the-top-ten-most-difficult-battles-in.html Finnath Creek is the map. Yeah...

True story, I had a brand new copy of Phantom Hourglass and it went missing pretty much right away. A couple years later I got a used game-only copy of it, actually played through it (meh), sold it. Fast forward about ten more years and during a move I found the original CIB copy under some...

WTS my Switch OLED. Still has a nicer screen than the new one, but I don't have any use for it now since I'm not really using portable mode Switch anymore. Perfect condition, about 3 years old. Will cut you a deal if it's for a kid, either way it'll be less than the going rate. Got a day or two...

I don't even pay attention to Zelda series "lore" because it doesn't make any sense. This supposed origin story causes a bunch of continuity errors and isn't a real origin story besides that they tried to frame it as one to get fans more interested in it. I liked the early games and always...

Darkpaw? Yeah probably. There's always next year though.

The latest mystery zoneline: Jaggedpine Forest was probably supposed to be part of the classic game. On all the maps for that Qeynos Hills/Everfrost region. Got finished and added in much later. What I'm wondering is... what zone was this zoneline supposed to go to? I'm thinking a zone that...

The Golden Rapiers, or NAMBLA for short.

Oh man, if this new version has un-nerfed Wiegraf from the original...lot of people are gonna be in for it. The Riovanes debacle was really a 4-tiered "hard reset" situation. The Wiegraf fight could end your playthrough, the Velius fight right after it could end your playthrough, the rooftop...
