I wanna cosplay as Yuna DTF.    Buh I lack teh funds.

I'm sure some lonely, lonely young man will offer to buy it for you in exchange for pics of you wearing it.

That reminds me of when I checked the Chat Thread and all I remember was seeing something like :

"Girls boobs giggle when they laugh.

GOD I'M SO LONELY"


 

And what would be the point of getting a costume like that and not posting pics on DTF. That's the first thing I'd do.

So, I'm finally trying to finish FFXIII. I sold a bunch of shit and bought 90 Superconductors so I could upgrade my weapons. Light has a fully upgraded Axis Blade now.  

That's actually not that impressive, although the Axis blade was her best first level weapon, in my opinion.  Maxing a first level just isn't too hard after you get through chapter 11.  Try to synth it up to a second level weapon during the ending chapters if you want something both stronger and not too hard to do.  You can purchase something that works for the Axis Blade fairly cheaply, plus the new weapon recharges her gauge even faster.  I got two or three weapons as maxed out second level ones before beating the game.  Didn't get any weapons into the third level, though, never found the right material to up them.

[Ultimetalhead]

Yeah, but I'm having a pretty massive gil shortage right now though. 90 superconductors isn't the cheapest purchase.

Also, I beat Vanille's summon today after about 50 tries. That fucker was relentless.

[yorost]

That's really good if you just got her summon, especially since the Axis Blade is Lightning's best weapon, don't bother with the later ones you find.  Recharging the ATB is way too powerful, ruinga or blitz or both + haste + Axis or upgrade + sentinel support vs. grouped enemies is an extremely violent way to go.  That sentinel makes many enemies congregate in one location  while you can get Lightning chaining her attacks with next to no pause.  It won't finish most battles, but it sure does give you a free pass for your synergist to beef everyone up quickly then let the group launch into all out attack.

[Ultimetalhead]

Yeah, I feel my party until the end of the game will be Light, Hope, and Fang. Hope is a hell of a synergist, and Fang is a hell of a Saboteur. Slowga FTW.

Though, does Hope EVER learn Haste?

[yorost]

Yeah, I believe he does after Chapter 11, but I'm not certain since I didn't use him much.  I used Sazh, instead.

FF9 is the best one, just narrowly beating FF6 and FF4.

But I've always hated FF7. *Flameshield*

[Ultimetalhead]

But I've always hated FF7. *Flameshield*

Why am I not surprised?

[AcidLameLTE]

7 is good but 9 is way better.

[Ultimetalhead]

I need to play through X again to see how it competes. Right now I'd say it's a tie between VII and X. I still need to finish IX.

[AcidLameLTE]

Snape kills Zidane

...

wait

[Ultimetalhead]

Snape kills Aeris.

[AcidLameLTE]

Hey now, no real spoilers.

[Seventh Son]

But I've always hated FF7. *Flameshield*

Why am I not surprised?

I always hated most things about 7. The characters bored me (Cloud being the worst protaganist of the whole FF series, ib4rage), the story was bleh, etc.

[AcidLameLTE]

Tidus was easily the worst protagonist of the series.

[Seventh Son]

I haven't played ten yet. I had a copy, but it never worked past the opening scene, so I can't judge FFX without watching a playthrough on youtube or something.

WTF. Play it.

Eh. I dunno. Squall was kind of a cuntbasket.

It doesn't work past the opening scene and I don't have the money to get a new copy.

Also, I managed to tolerate Squall. He's nothing special, but I didn't find him THAT annoying.

[AcidLameLTE]

At least Squall wasn't a whiny bitch.

[Seventh Son]

Zidane is the best protagonist in the whole series.

[AcidLameLTE]

I think, for the most part, IX had the best collection characters in the series.

[Seventh Son]

I think, for the most part, IX had the best collection characters in the series.

Agreed. I think everything just went perfectly. It takes the parts that made the old school games so good, but took advantage of what the Playstation could do at the time and expanded on that so much. The story, the music, the characters, the battle system, all of them were just flawless. And the ending was absolutely amazing, it actually moved me to tears.

And for the record, I actually like Quina as a character

[ariich]

At least Squall wasn't a whiny bitch.

WHAT?! Squall was the whiniest loser in any game ever. Definitely the worst FF protagonist.

Cloud still exists you know.

I meant: "At least Squall wasn't as whiny as Tidus".

You and I have been agreeing a lot today, Rich. o/

Also, IX's characters are pretty good, yes. I'd gladly have Garnet, which is always a plus. Yuna was something else though. I was genuinely attracted to her.

Cloud was one of the worst characters I've ever seen in a Final Fantasy game.

[Ultimetalhead]

Okay, but just because you don't like him doesn't make him whiny. Hell, I thought Squall was a fine character, but he was the whiniest son of a bitch ever.

[ariich]

*\o

Neither Cloud or Tidus are nearly as whiny as Squall. Shame as some of the sub characters in VIII are good (like Quistis... hot!), but the main one sucking brought the game down quite a lot for me.

[AcidLameLTE]

There's a reason why everybody plays Dissidia for the sole purpose of beating up Tidus.

Also, the shitty story brought 8 down, not the characters.

[Seventh Son]

I was referring to Rich saying that Squall was the worst FF protaganist, I wasn't saying he was whiny or anything.

[Ultimetalhead]

Eugh, Quistis was not hot. Never had the desire for her. Rinoa on the other hand.

Ah. My mistake. You're still wrong though.

[Seventh Son]

This thread needs moar FFT love. That game is just a joy to play, especially singe character-class challenges or a Ramza-only challenge (I've actually done it and it revolves around spamming your awesome Squire abilities)

[AcidLameLTE]

Oh yeah, I also forgot to complain about the lame airship you get at first and the mini-game where you have to catch Rinoa in space AND I DIDN'T LIKE THE JUNCTIONING SYSTEM

[Ultimetalhead]

The junction system was like skullfucking yourself.
