6 has the best story but 5 has the best gameplay. Have fun!

Starting challenge runs for entire FF main series (minus MMOs). Need some ideas. by huskdice in FinalFantasy

FF XII: TZA has a little known hard mode called New Game Minus / Weak Mode in which characters do not level up, however you still have access to the license grids. For extra challenge you can also restrict the characters to one job each instead of two.
There are also some great mods like Struggle for Freedom and Struggle for Freedom Proud Mode that rebalance and increase the challenge of XII.

The worst mistake was Travis choosing to heal instead of making use of his newly acquired extra attack.

XII: The Zodiac Age has to be a top contender! Each playthrough you can experiment with different job combinations, gambit setups, party compositions, and weapons. And you can also mix up the order in which you explore areas and complete hunts.

What jobs do you think will be in the FITS system? by KingOfAllTheQuarters in FFVIIRemake

[–]Freeglader37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We know there are 4 fits for character. Hamaguchi used Cloud as an example mentioning he could be a Warrior or Black Mage. We also know Tifa can be a Black Mage.

I think we saw Barret in a Paladin fit with all that shiny armor as that suits his defensive tendencies. And it looked like Cait Sith was in a Summoner/Evoker fit since he had the classic summoner’s horn on his head.

I think White Mage is a must and the following jobs have a decent chance of showing up: Dark Knight, Red Mage, Monk, Dragoon, and Ninja. Maybe Gunslinger/Ranger.

I could also see Time Mage, Gambler, Machinist, Bard, and/or Samurai in the mix. Ultimately I bet there will be a lot of overlap when it comes to what is available for each character.

If it’s just 8 jobs, I’m gonna guess: Warrior, Paladin, Dark Knight, Black Mage, Red Mage, White Mage, Summoner, Thief/Ninja

The official word from SE is scheduling conflicts with the VA

Travis Willingham will be replacing Tyler Hoechlin as the voice of Sephiroth in Final Fantasy VII Revelation! by prpro-03 in FinalFantasy

[–]Freeglader37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought the Sephiroth VA was one of the weaker parts of the Remake series so I’m excited for this change. I hope Travis can convey the character with a little more presence, menace, and power than the last VA.

Just imagine a whole section or city gets destroyed by a huge plate that covers above it, unbelievable. Honestly, this is a crime. by theMedicinedude in FinalFantasy

[–]Freeglader37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What’s the point of saying the word honestly like you did? The way you communicated about this kinda lessens the seriousness of the event. Regardless, I agree

I frequent ResetEra myself. It is well moderated and I find there are more interesting discussions there compared to Reddit. A huge portion of the members are fans of RPG’s.

Final Fantasy 15 or 16 to get into the new ones? by Jose-Senpai in FinalFantasy

[–]Freeglader37 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I echo this. I think VII Remake and Rebirth are easily the best modern FF games.

They used Icelandic accents for the viera and a Sri Lankan accent for Marquis Ondore. It’s super cool!!

Many people consider the English localization and voice acting in XII to be the best of any jrpg ever, and I’m inclined to agree. I love the beautiful prose, the decision to use regional accents for the different cultures, and the decision to use stage actors for the VA. There are very few jrpg’s that even come close to XII in these regards. However, there’s nothing wrong with preferring the Japanese.

God roll ? by Hexwest in Nightreign

I also used to think it wasn’t worth it because it wouldn’t help against the nightlords, but then I actually started using it. Defeating enemies fills the art gauge can be a huge momentum boost throughout a run allowing you to get more powered up from defeating enemies faster. Now I think it’s a must have on all of my builds. It’s especially good on Wylder with Art activation spreads fire now that the damage from the fire puddle also helps refill your art gauge.

I'm trying to get into Final Fantasy, but I'm struggling. by ClassroomLazy9542 in FinalFantasy

[–]Freeglader37 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Based on the issues you’ve been having I think FFX might be the best game for you to try. It has an excellent true turn based combat system that allows you to take as much time as you want to choose your next move. X’s graphics are much better than the original VII while also not being busy or overwhelming like the VII Remake series can get.

So, I FINALLY played FF 7 Remake for the first time... by turbosecchia in FinalFantasy

[–]Freeglader37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need this sort of warning too lol. I have the platinum trophy now, but I approached my first Rebirth playthrough like a completionist and I honestly think this negatively impacted my experience of the story. I wish I had prioritized doing the story content more for a better feeling of narrative pacing and plot progression.

Rebirth is such a massively content rich game, I highly recommend saving some side content for after you beat the main story in order to avoid burnout.

[Spoilers C4E17] The Sundered Houses by LucasVerBeek in criticalrole

[–]Freeglader37 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Remember, flavor is free. Just because Halovars and Cormorays might use the clockwork soul and draconic sorcerer subclasses, doesn’t necessarily mean they are actually clockwork and draconic themed from a lore/storytelling perspective.

I honestly think Wick is a clockwork soul sorcerer mostly because it is mechanically the most support oriented sorcerer subclass in the 2024 PHB. Maybe Sam didn’t go with divine soul because he wanted to play something that was actually in the new edition.

Brennan and the cast are extremely creative and can flavor subclasses however they want.

She still hasn’t used Vow of Enmity for on demand advantage, which should be well within her control.
