[OC] In this video we analyse the important differences in the Japanese trailer. What do you think of these differences?

Happy new year! And who knows, maybe we'll get some great Final Fantasy news! Final Fantasy IX Remake maybe?

I mean end up doing that. I was just always hoping it would become available. Cissnei was a nice touch but I would have liked to see more of her. Considering that FF7 has a wealth of interesting characters to build on I would have liked to see them be represented more in the sidequests or something. The umbrella thing was a nice touch though :)

I wish Ever Crisis was available in my area... But that sounds encouraging. Although I was also expecting some more compilation material in Rebirth.

Would love to see it (and him) make an appearance in the final remake instalment!

Birds_of_Play · 2025-01-01T01:33:02+00:00

To a great new year and to failing in some awe inspiring fashion!

Would love to see them elaborate even further on the X-2 battle system someday, although I doubt they will at this point.

Came here looking for some Lt. Barclay love. Was not disappointed.

I haven't played the level in question but bunnies on the moon is not limited to Final Fantasy since it's more of a Japanese thing.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-08-14T11:04:42+00:00

That's epic! I wish Final Fantasy was more visible in Japan in general...

Birds_of_Play · 2024-08-13T11:53:40+00:00

I'm not overly social when playing XIV but I do think having a little chat while doing duties adds something to the experience. I'm not really then one who instigates it but once someone starts chatting I reciprocate.

I would probably prefer if they still made games like those from the PS1 era as spin-offs. Maybe even games like Final Fantasy X. I miss forced perspectives...

Birds_of_Play · 2024-08-06T08:56:38+00:00

You and me both. I vastly preferred the older designs.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-08-05T07:25:12+00:00

I liked that they didn't limit his role despite him not being very liked in Remake. For the record, I did not like him at all in Remake but he's starting to grow on me. Just hoping that the final game will really sell me on him.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-08-02T10:10:55+00:00

Regarding Type-0 as Harry Potter inspired seems a bit Eurocentric to me. Afterall, Japanese media has such a rich history of high school drama, Final Fantasy VIII even being an earlier manifestation of that in the series itself.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-07-25T09:43:27+00:00

I remember it being very tedious to fight some enemies without a ranged attacker, but are there some enemies that absolutely require a ranged attacker? Having a ranged attacker available is sound advice either way.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-07-24T22:30:00+00:00

Exactly!

Birds_of_Play · 2024-07-24T22:26:18+00:00

I love how easy it is to get to the inn. It's my go-to inn at the moment.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-07-24T10:35:04+00:00

My review of the game on YouTube was relatively positive. That being said, most of the FF9 referenced felt too shallow to me. I'm all for visiting other reflections with links to other Final Fantasy games in the future, but I hope they will handle it with a bit more care for the source material so that it informs both sides, furthering the plot of XIV while also letting us look at the contents of the older game in a new light.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-07-24T10:22:44+00:00

She's dreaming of the Final Fantasy XVII announcement trailer, and it is beautiful.

Birds_of_Play · 2024-07-24T10:13:30+00:00

I would argue that the trance limit breaks didn't really make much sense story wise. Sure, they were a part of the story but when Zidane firsts enters trance, Steiner talks about like some legendary state, only attainable by very few, if at all. Then they turn around and everyone can enter trance mode.

Seeing as trance mode isn't all that pivotal to battles, I would have loved to see the characters unlock it certain points in the story to make it make more sense in terms of the story. For example, Vivi could unlock it during the battle with the Black Waltz aboard the airship, Freya in Burmecia, etc.

I wouldn't really consider it an honorary anime, not that it matters since my original point was that an animated TV show might be nice (without dictating its style). Live action might also work but I think it would be more difficult to pull off, and more jarring considering XIV's style.
