New Post. I didn't think you would listen to that haha. There's no one like her really.

No, I agree, I think Toriyama is a generally poor writer especially dialogue. Though he has some good ideas. He uses plot devices like "paradox" as an out when he can't put it quite together. I can see how some people absolutely hate it. I'd probably get in trouble with some people for this. But his story's generally remind me of FF5's. Obsurd, but still fun (for me).

I do however, love love the gameplay his games have had X,X-2,Revenant Wings, XIII (though this was too bare bones). I'd prefer he didn't write for the games he directs.

Do you know who wrote 9? The dialogue, the first 20 hours is amazing, 4 or 5, of the main characters are my favorites in FF. I just had other issues with that game.

I have heard, by people that criticized 13-2 story, that Type-0's story is really good (not toriyama).

sorry my post is so ugly. idk what happened.

on 30 January 2012

Well i'm not sure who wrote FF9. but i'm quite sure Sakaguchi had a lot to do with it. i thought the game was generally very good until the end part with a villain who shows up in the last 30 mins, lol.

i dont think its just Toriyama, i dont know why they decided to strech out one concept (the FNC concept) over 5 or 6 games or whatever it is. it forces the story to be thinned out and less interesting in each game. if the mythology was more focused over say 1 game then the story would be more engrossing. i find myself uninterested in the plot of the FF13 games because we know their will be no conclusion in each game. since the point of FF13 is to be a compilation rather than a single game.

which is probabily for sales i think.

i actully think FF5s story was better than FF4s, tbh. the reason FF4 i think is more popular than FF5 is because of the deeper character development. where FF5 missed a trick.

the story was great though, a strange meteor, two worlds originally as one. that was an amazing feeling travelling to another world and finding those sealed weapons. and finding half of that book. no wonder they could never find the other half, it was on another planet, lol.

And of course, Gilgamesh's first appearance!

I have an idea. I know you don't like FF8, so much. But FF8 and FF9. the thing about them, is that all the cgi was like a silent movie. Looking back it kind of gave those cgi a really unique artistic quality imo. Even in 12 when the dialogue was really good, The scenes never felt quite the same. So my idea is even more retro. Make a silent FF.

granted, that will never happen because SE wouldn't do that. And even most fans would probably be like "I want voices" but what do you think? haha

on 25 January 2012

FF8 wasnt bad, my problem is i felt thats where a lot of things started going wrong. i mean the issue was really story/characters/and gameplay. all of which divided fans on so many levels. the time compression wishy washy story, the characters like Squall, the Junction system all had a few problems. that being said FF8 did some things extremely well. the photorealistic touch was very impressive and the Junction/GF system was very deep despite the boring Draw 100 magic thing.

on your point i dont think it will ever happen, lol. but there was a nice artisitic quality to it. even in FF7. but that was also because of Umatesu's score.

personally i feel that voice acting is overated. i think RPGs only need it in cutscenes or CGI. you dont need it all the time. a lot of the time its redudant anyway because i read the dailogue a lot faster that they can speak so i end up skipping most of it anyway. i guess for the CGI scenes its not that important, but i do get what your saying, i just dont think they will make it like that again tbh.

haha, told you the story of 13-2 wasn't going to work for you >_<!

This is another song, by that japanese lady. It's oddly composed, my favorite stuff. However some might not like it.

Yeah thanks for the link, i think i heard something similar to that on the album you recommened. i think shes really good actully. i dont know much about the J music scene, so i'm not sure what the consenus on that is, but i really enjoyed some of those songs. i agree, the juxtaposition of instrumental arrangments is very satisfying on the train.

i'm not sure about the story of FF13-2, i think i've mentioned it before but i think the writing needs an improvement. the unlying concept of the FNC is interesting, but its the execution that holds it back imo.

Xbox 360 sales ban in USA recommended by judge

in Microsoft Discussion 8 hours ago

Even if this happens, the 360 has already sold like 35 mil units in the US. They've wont have a problem since everyone who wants a 360 most likely has a 360. And i'm not sure whoes at fault here, but in the worst case scenario Microsoft can compensate Motorola for their loss earnings for IP rights....

Unreal Engine 4 vs. Playstation 3 games (God of War III, Ascension, Uncharted 3, The Last of Us etc)

in Gaming Discussion 5 days ago

I didnt examine those pics in full screen. but i did look at them on another website bigger than they are. and it does seem like there are more particle effects there, thus more pixels per shot. the PS3 pics look absolutely stunning, but thats based on years of technical refinement and such broad colour paletes. they look better from an artistic perspective since the UE4 engine is using mostly...
