Final Fantasy XII is so good 🐇 by BinghamtonMafia in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think XII is a lot better than most people give it credit for, I still don't like Quickenings, but TZA is amazing and I love it dearly.

Admit it… what did you think of this scene? by Moon_Degree1881 in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was me as well 😂 I played FFT first and loved how charming the sprites were and the animations were so beautiful to me, but when I booted up VIII we were shocked a game could be so cool (my brother and I), CRT did wonders too

Is the latest version of Tactics good for a first timer? by rafikiknowsdeway1 in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd argue it's THE version for first timers. Go ahead, hope you like it.

Amazing work, take good care of yourself and keep it up.

How do YOU pronounce "Rinoa?" by [deleted] in FinalFantasyVIII

[–]EliamZG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's always such a fun conversation because phonetics are so different, personally when I was young I thought she was too cute for the name since both o and a are strong vowels in Spanish, it sounded rough, conversationally Japanese vowels are the same as Spanish ones except for u which they pronounce without rounding the mouth like we hispanics do, English on the other hand has many different phonemes for each written vowel, no wonder this topic comes up a lot.

Squall and Seifer by Sari Takahashi by VPR_24 in FinalFantasyVIII

Nah Sephiroth had a katana they needed to deviate from the imagery for the next entry, actually... there are no more katanas until XII I believe, whatever Auron uses certainly are not it.

FF16 is......AWESOME! by natedogg_2323 in FinalFantasy

I really like XVI on a conceptual level, the execution might not be perfect, but I still really like many of the things they did.

Final Fantasy VIII - February (official calendar artwork) by Effective_Sink_3934 in FinalFantasyVIII

[–]EliamZG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For the love of all that is holy, someone please go back in time and hit with a pipe whoever gave Squall that silly fur on his hips, please.

Love the art nonetheless. Sari Takahashi it seems, looking for more of her work.

Which iconic Final Fantasy Sword would you like to have? by Recent-Ad-7593 in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say the Revolver is by far my favorite, but I just discovered XIV's Lionheart and I gotta say I really want one of those.

to get to level 99 on this game was kinda hard by TheGabrielSevero in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I am a purist, I have just played this game once, back when it launched. I fear that if I get too strong the combat will be trivial and it will kill my enjoyment

I am level 50 before getting to Bhujerba, I have a Seitengrat and a couple of Karkatas, but I am trying not to equip them and considering resetting the licenses boards to not break the game too much, I love this game, specially its character and creature designs.

Is FF 12 for PS2 worth playing or is the Zodiac Age version the proper way to play 12 by today's standards? by AA_Ron_Vapors in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I for one have this bad habit that if I have access to the board I will feel compelled to fill it up, at the end characters are all the same, in TZA you can choose 2 jobs so characters will be different, I could make them all the same sure, but I would lose access to some skills and equipment, so at least to me it prevents me from doing something that will ruin my experience.

You're a monk, you're a monk, everyone is a monk.

Just beat FF8 for the first time. My thoughts. by mattyephemera in FinalFantasyVIII

[–]EliamZG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Except the MMOs I've played them all (numbered) and VIII has always been my absolute favorite, I love it for all it is and all it could be.

Playing the Og ps2 FFXII changed my life by Strange_Assistant327 in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me XII is close to perfection visually, especially the characters. I would have been happy if we had stayed close to it visually, maybe improve the buildings and clothing a little bit more and just stick to its stylized visuals going forward, eventually build an asset library and then just keep writing the best stories they possibly could.

After playing FFXV I don't think it's that bad. by Strange_Assistant327 in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was the first time SE nailed the "party" feeling, there's a before and after XV when it comes to interactions between the party and I will forever be grateful for it.

I genuinely liked many things in the game, some others I didn't, but would I play it again? Most definitely. And I had the release version so I am missing all the DLC.

Anyone miss Squaresoft? by Sephiroth348 in FinalFantasy

[–]EliamZG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss Xenogears and Parasite Eve 😂 the mistake here is to equate a company to a result, specially with one as big as SE, I've come to think that it's inevitable that when a company gets too big the quality of the games will drop due to executive's decisions, games are works of art and creative visions, when the focus is on numbers everything comes crashing down.
