They become bleh just for the reason you say, eventually there is no challenge left. Of course, that's what happens when you throw them in for the final patch of an expansion (although seems pretty clear it was a testing ground for the Tower/future similar systems). This Tower being the...

Granted, still not at the end, have really been pacing myself, but I don't think it would have been better. The backstory stuff with Avalanche alone elevates this retelling quite a bit so far. I'll see what I think when I finish, though.

Basically you're right at the episode where if you had any questions it was going to shit, that episode basically solidified it and began the true full downhill descent to terribleness.

I do wish they had kept a take on the original Wall Market theme for when you were there. I will say Hell House was done better than I could have imagined. I bet that is fun on Hard Mode.

People were geeking the fuck out when he came out to his entrance against Hogan.

This sounds similar to me. I did play FF1 on the NES but I was pretty young. 4 is the straight up nostalgia trip for me. Agreed that 6 took everything it did and made it better. For whatever reason 7 just went to a whole new level for me, but I still don't think they've come close to 7 and...

Did you actually play EQ Fyff? If you did, it's ridiculous to even have to clarify why they aren't even in the same league.

WoW toys and EQ clickies aren't even in the same universe as far as what they do. This is a terrible comparison.

Only remake is this current one for 7, no? They've done remasters for 8/9/10/12 I know.

I always have 7 and 6 as my top 2, but Tactics I always have to rank above all the rest cause it was just that good. If you replay FFT a lot I assume you know the JP Scroll Glitch? Completely made that game's replay value even higher than it was.

Yeah if I was including 14, the Shadowbringers expansion alone probably breaks into top 3 for me.

Suggestions for gaming headphones? Have used Logitech G430's the last two times, but the swivel earphones seem to eventually get weak and break from standard use (I don't drop them or anything). Not looking for anything too expensive, but just decent and durable.

The remaster for 12 actually set up a class system, as well, didn't it? Not sure how big of a change that was, but different than the remasters for 8 and 9 in that it added something.

12 is a weird one, I'll admit. Also I hear the remaster is good (haven't played it yet). I never found 8 that epic, the story is all over the place, I hated GF's, Draw system, the characters...basically everything about the game save the card game. Listing 8's end boss as a pro is the...

S6 final episode beginning scene with Cersei blowing everyone to hell was amazing, and cancels out any bad that season. The music and the buildup to that was epic.

I'll never understand 8 being ranked so high. 7 > 6 >> Tactics/9/10 > 12/4 > the rest

While 7's graphics have aged far worse, they're both still pretty fun replays. I've been meaning to find one of the new versions of VI, though to try out. I still love VI, and liked the magicite/relic system, I just think materia pretty much improved on it in basically all ways.

I can understand some differing of opinion, after all I don't hate S7 or especially 6 as much as some. 8 started fine with just old characters meeting up or some meeting for the first time (finally). Soon as they actually had to tie up any plot elements, though, it went straight to shit. I...

I wonder if that's for a later installment. It's already pretty ridiculous the power level characters will be at end of this game. That's going to be another issue for them, though. Will progress carryover in any way to Part 2, or will they just start everyone at like level 30 or something?

Actually you're misremembering, if only a little bit. It wasn't "fire" magicite, it would be Ifrit or whatever. It also would just teach you whatever spells it had, you couldn't link it other magicite to create extra effects or insane combos (the 2 relic slots were the poor man's version of...

Not even close, unless it's just a flavor thing. Can do way more with materia.

Is it just a really vocal minority I always hear trying to claim IX is the best FF? I admit, I didn't actually play IX until after I'd played through X, after how disappointing VIII was for me laid off FF's until PS2. I haven't played any of the upscaled versions of VI, but I'd have to bet...

Bleh. Honestly I enjoyed the order hall version of it, while catching up, I obviously got some of the garrison quest done and have a full list of followers for that, plus the shipyard stuff...but I never delved deep enough into those to know how it was. Mission table in BFA is a pale version...

They're the one set I still need to do. Skipped Omega 5-12 from last expansion. I did the Ivalice 24 man raids just recently to catch up for the new "relic" weapon quest in the current expansion and the music and throwback to Tactics/XII was pretty nostalgic.

I wouldn't expect X to get it just because it already had an HD remaster. Actually IX did as well, along with XII. VI probably the most popular after VII overall. Over 30 years old not that big a deal, FF7 was 23 years ago.

It's way better than XV's and quite a lot of fun. Although if you're a turn based purist I can understand. From what I hear Classic mode isn't really even close to the same thing so the game wouldn't scratch that itch at all. If they actually were going do Remake another one I wonder if VI or...

Maybe they will after this, could add in some more actual interaction with Kefka in WoR. I know it's basically a meme at this point that many FF fans consider him the "best villain" but I think they dropped the ball a bit by having nothing with him basically for the entire 2nd half of the game...

Honestly what finally got me to come back to the game (since just casually checking out leveling in Cata just to see the new zones) in Legion and to come back for start of BFA wa curiosity with where they went with all the stories and all the zones/lore I missed in between. That also means that...

I did as well, although Wilbon and Kornheiser(sp) stop really giving a fuck basically as soon as they were on TV. Around the Horn was fun for a bit, but format got old fast.

Not going to lie, I looked on line and first thing I saw said "wait until Aerith rejoins party". Loaded up on magic D, gave Aerith elemental with ice in her armor linked materia, and went to town ezmode.

The Roche shit was a little over the top, but it works for being an early antagonist and felt the bike scene was a lot better than the original (nothing special, but the original was as basic as it gets). One thing I noticed, while it is cool to be able to see the materia in their slots on...

Going to disagree about the music, I love how a lot of it is just slightly different but still completely recognizable. Tifa's Theme on every jukebox, though. I'm in Chapter 8, been trying to pace myself (and too many friends wanting me to play squads on CoD). Loving the combat, usually just...

Not trying to read spoilers, but they definitely made no secret is wasn't going to just be vanilla remake awhile ago. Final Fantasy VII Remake details: reason for multi-part release, CyberConnect2 collaboration, more - Gematsu That's from way back in 2015.

Leecher Aug blueprint has 5.56 with 60 round mag. It's fun.

I don't expect Part 2 will take 5 years, but I also think expecting it in 12-18 months is a bit crazy, too. My guess would be ~3 years.

Also, clearly the only acceptable way to max the darts minigame in 6 throws is 3 triple 20's, a single 20, a triple 17, and a bullseye to finish.

Was able to knock out all the craft relics, and finish the combat relic quest where I can get whatever one for 1k poetics before FF7:R came out. The gathering ones suck, though. Just a timesink (craft ones are too, ~450-475 macros and you're done, but at least I had all the mats I needed...

Yeah, you mash square button a bit for ATB, but then it's all about making good choices (aside from basic enemies that you just wreck in one ability or just from a square button combo).

The shit when Biggs offers to upgrade your weapon and Cloud says no and Biggs respond "What are you, a purist?" was a nice touch.

I don't see why you would skip them, aside from the exp/etc, most of the better item rewards seem to come from them. Saves you money buying a lot of extra materia/equipment.
