Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Final Fantasy IV Scan

Oh, the scans look awful, I dislike that art type.

However, if the game truly is expanded, I will pick it up. First RPG loyalty and all. Hell, I still remember the case that it came in when I rented it. It had a he-man on it.



See Ya George.

mrstickball & Fuzzmosis:

When was the last time either of you actually looked at the art and comic styles of the original 6 FF games.

Regarding the "corny" factor, FF used to be SIGNIFICANTLY cornier with their jokes and comic styles back then. Look at FF6. That game practically defines breaking the fourth wall all over the place.

Regarding the art, have you ever seen the concept drawings for the first 7 Final Fantasy games? Everyone looks feminine.

Thats what Im having a huge problem with, ItsaMii.

Back in the day, FF characters weren't corny, feminine characters. Cecil friggin' bombed an entire city for a crystal, and saw lots and lots of people die. Should he look like a girl?

The Final Fantasy series fails because it makes men too girly. As much as I loved FFXII Vaan was FAR too feminine. What is it with these games noawadays?

Outside of that, looks interesting. I wonder how homosexual they're going to turn Locke, Edgar and the rest of the cast from FF6?

Amano's art of these characters always portrayed them as both pale and feminine. It's like his trademark that all of his men look like women. Cecil has always given Rosa a run for her money in looks. You might be able to tell with a 2 inch sprite before, so why is this a problem now?



Tag - "No trolling on my watch!"

WhiteoutKing: I meant in game. Character models to me, are art. The other base art for the series never bothered me. And I repeat: If this is only a graphics change (Due to my opinion, I do not say upgrade), I won't be getting it, but if it is an expansion, I probably will.

lol sadly i think cause it's aimed at the japanese market more then anywere else. Most the men there are metrosexuals who listen to soft sad love songs lol. So the male characters are made to look more like women to give that look.


I blame all this on the men who let women even start up a womans rights protest all those years ago. They got a sniff off power now and they want these stupid metrosexual looking guys and turning our society weak.

To be honest, it's not just the men. I don't care for the style in general; I didn't like Rosa's 3D model either. It's one thing to look cartoony or animated, but these models look completely weird.

And in FFIV both on the SNES and the GBA, I didn't get the sense that any of the characters looked weird the way they do in this. I mean look at the models and compare them to the original FFIV sprites, they're not at all in the same style.  Look at the shapes of the models' heads, they all look like aliens from another planet.
