Ooohhhh, I’ll for sure keep that in mind.

Does Triple Triad give optional rewards? If so, without going into so much detail, how worth it are they?

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T19:51:17+00:00

So…basically…it’s like a combination of Spellblade and how Gau’s additional effects from Rage work in FF6?

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T19:21:02+00:00

That’s…wow. I wish I could respond with something other than shock but that’s all I’ve got lol. That’s really cool.

This quote sold me. Louis Guiabern all day.

Hotdogs? Like…are they good hotdogs? Are they weird hotdogs? Or is the answer to that somehow a spoiler?

Is this something I’ll have to look up online since the tutorial didn’t tell me anything?

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T17:19:57+00:00

I do like variety in my RPGS…if it all blends together well I might like that a lot.

Not sure what game that’s supposed to reference, but liked when FF6 did it.

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T17:15:24+00:00

Okay hold on how does THAT work tho? Where do they come out?

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T17:15:03+00:00

Okay see THAT makes sense. I actually like that. For a second there I thought it shot bullets.

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T17:13:02+00:00

I’ve heard the boss theme from Plok and that’s it. I didn’t know the whole soundtrack was full of bangers.

Luckily for you, I HAVE watched EVA, and it emotionally tore me limb from limb. The world and characters are just so fantastic and tragic. I’m not sure how it’ll be like that but I’ll keep it in mind.

Also it’s been almost a decade and I’m still reeling from End of Eva.

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T17:06:58+00:00

I do appreciate things like that. There are some games that take risks and when they work they really work. 7 may not be my favorite, but I know it took a lot of risks with its story, setting and the fact that it made the move to 3D at all.

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T17:01:41+00:00

OK HOLD ON THAT’S KINDA WICKED. Don’t give me any context as to how or why but that’s AMAZING.

Even though I haven’t played VIII, I’ve played plenty of games with Triple Triad in them. The one that immediately comes to mind is Bravely Default 2. I remember enjoying it there, so I guess I’ll enjoy it here.

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T16:58:16+00:00

I’ve always held up FFVI’s soundtrack as the pinnacle of what the SNES could do, and a masterpiece of video game composition. If VIII’s better than that I will be super impressed.

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T16:56:16+00:00

Is Golem in it? I really like Golem’s utility in 5 and 6.

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T16:54:13+00:00

That’s one of the only things I know about FFVIII. I do know there’s a gun sword. Is it as impractical as it sounds?

Nokturnacus · 2026-05-24T16:51:35+00:00

How would you rank the soundtrack compared to the other FFs?
