Just got Dissidia. Haven't played it yet but I will give you my thoughts on it later.

I want to get back to this to finish up the later stories, great game for Final Fantasy fans. I loved how much time Firion and The Emperor got in the story.

Ultimetalhead · « **Reply #981 on:** September 03, 2010, 02:25:10 PM »

Dissidia's great, and it's extremely long if you play all the stories.

Finally got my character made in FFXIV. My laptop cannot handle this game and the installation keeps crashing on the desktop

So guys, tell me what you think about this challenge for FFIX

I struggle to believe that is even remotely possible but the sadistic masochist inside of me wants to actually attempt it.

Sounds like a guide for people with an unhealthy fixation on the game. At the point of someone doing that, it is just following a technical manual to perform tedious tasks aimed at meaningless goals. You would have to really love the game to even think about it, but when you're following instructions to that level of detail you're just being a machine.

Genowyn · « **Reply #985 on:** September 03, 2010, 02:55:55 PM »

I love that game and I've never even gotten the Excalibur II >.>

AcidLameLTE · « **Reply #986 on:** September 03, 2010, 03:01:42 PM »

wtf

How are you supposed to get that far in 12 hours?

I have no fucking clue but from what I've seen watching youtube vids, you skip through all the dialogue as fast as you can and skip all the ATE's (except the ones that aren't skipable) and use the amv trick (the one that doesn't count the timer during them) and just get through the game as fast as fucking possible.

The thing is, this guide also says doing the whole game straight from level 1, all the way to Excaliber II. That is madness.

I created my character tonight and have been playing it all night basically. It's pretty fun once you get into it, Im not sure whether or not I'm going to buy it. I probably will eventually.
Do you have a PS3, maybe you can wait for that release to play it?

I've already paid for the PC version

Fuck that.

But I remember thinking I was pretty badass as a little kid for losing no matches of the card game whatsoever and completing all of the chocobo stuff like getting mognet central and what have you. And beating that one hidden guy before the last boss to get....crap, I don't even remember

Did you ever beat Ozma as a kid?

So I guess FF14 has a lot of blatantly copy/pasted terrain?

Funny thing is I was reading a thread on this on a FF14 forum, and the fanboys were saying that anyone that gets upset over this are just shallow for caring about graphics over gameplay

Here's a useful comment on one of the videos:

"WORLD OF WARCRAFT IS THE AND i mean THEE GAYEST GAME EVER MADE!!!! it belongs in the trash with all the other shitty mmos"

ehra · « **Reply #995 on:** September 20, 2010, 07:09:01 AM »

It's true, I once went back to reinstall the game and discovered the CDs were just hardened poop (no idea how I never noticed that before). It then proceed to hit on me.

Genowyn · « **Reply #996 on:** September 28, 2010, 12:36:59 PM »

So I just realized.

Quina is a Qu.

Qu is supposed to be pronounced as Ku, at least if we are to believe the katakana...

Ku is japanese for "eat".

Has anyone played XIV? Is it good?

Elsydeon · « **Reply #998 on:** September 28, 2010, 04:16:11 PM »

it's ok.

Nick · « **Reply #999 on:** September 28, 2010, 04:29:27 PM »

FFXIII is the first one I'm playing through all the way and it will also be my last. At this point I'm not even playing it because it's a great game, but merely because of the grand scale and I'm too involved at this point. Much better games in the genre out there.

glaurung · « **Reply #1000 on:** September 28, 2010, 05:54:09 PM »

Do NOT let XIII ruing the entire series for you. Play one of the other classic ones before you give up on it.

this. 13 is a bad final fantasy to start with

Nick · « **Reply #1002 on:** September 28, 2010, 05:58:28 PM »

I've briefly played and seen older ones, this wasn't my very first exposure to the game.

glaurung · « **Reply #1003 on:** September 28, 2010, 05:59:00 PM »

Oh, well I guess you just fail then.

Seriously, play FF9. You won't regret it. Unless you fail of course, but we all know that could never happen.

The dialog in this thread is as predictable as it is poor.

And yet it still manages to be way better than the dialog in FFXIII.

To be fair, I can count the number of games on one hand that don't have painful dialog.

Speaking of dozens, here is a game that will kill you really quick. Take a shot every time Snow uses the word hero and it makes you cringe. After a dozen minutes you'll be dead.

Arcaeus · « **Reply #1010 on:** September 28, 2010, 07:35:23 PM »

Oh, I didn't say FFXIII didn't have horrible dialogue. It does.

I hate Snow.

But it's one of the very worst in the series.

From what I remember hearing when the game came out, I think you've just left the tutorial.

Goddamnit Snow is awesome. I guess you guys just like emo bitches and children.
