Just finished the main game and wanted to say that I absolutely LOVED the game.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

is that Eden Adamantoise the easiest one to kill? because even in the official guide it says that that is a good farming point and power leveling point. Also can you go back there after completing the game?

Add me if you want but let me know youre from this website

Hrm, after around 70 hours of gameplay I'm finally getting bored of the game. It's mainly just farming crap now. A while ago I promised myself I wouldn't force myself through tedious tasks like this in video games for virtual achievements (and only play for enjoyment), yet here I am again...

Anyway, I loved the game. Kinda surprising, I honestly wasn't expecting much, and while there were lots of problems with the game - the music not as memorable, overly dramatic moments (facepalm), a small explorable world (needs more Ch. 11), and the most dislikable character I've ever seen in an RPG (Hope, please die), the battle system is too fun. I was pretty much glued to the game, as can be seen from my achievement dates (kinda shameful, really). Overall I enjoyed it at least as much as the PS1 FF's, putting it at around 3rd or 4th in the main FF series.

It's a shame I don't like the cast much, though. Sazh looks too ridiculous, Fang isn't my type, and Hope... forget him. Being forced to play as these characters in the course of the story is pretty annoying, made worse by the fact that we barely get to play with Snow (who is pretty awesome) until later in the game.

I think the game could've really used an antihero type character, the game felt it was lacking in badassness. Hope's girlyness pretty much cancels Snow or Light's awesomeness out. We desperately needed a character that'd actually put him in his place whenever he talked (or better yet, remove / replace him altogether)!


I know I'm late to the thread, but I gotta put up my favorite moments anyway:

Light:
"...Operation Nora is over." (love this char)
"Raines!... You traitor!" *attacks*  (so suddenly, from someone who barely talks. That was badass.)

Snow:

Best theme in the game, for sure. Loved when the story switched to him, playing this music as he beat shit down with his fists. Or just letting/watching Hope get gattling gunned (lawl)

On PS3 you get XMB themes for unlocking certain trophies. Does the 360 do anything similar with achievements?

Yeah, see the sig.

Got the Lightning gamer pic from 5 starring the final boss. I'm assuming it's gamer pics = PS3 XMB themes.



PS3 got the better deal with the XMB Themes. Really wish they were dynamic themes though. I use the Fang theme on my PS3. :D

So does a friend of mine.

Wanted to go see Clash of the Titans today. But i'm not paying more money to watch the movie in 3D when I could enjoy it better in 2D. Seriously 3D blows.



@c0rd

nice to hear you enjoyed the game!!

That was a funny scene

MY fav funny scene was in chapter 12 opening CGI cut scene where one of the soldiers riding the airbike thingy said "YOUR DEAD" & lightning says "YOU FIRST" and pushes him out.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Today was very productive! I got the Growth Egg and the Genji Gloves.

The Genji Glove was easy to get (I can kill Adamantortoises consistently with Aegisol and Fortisol), but Death on Neochu was a bitch to get correctly. It took me 6 retries.

I am not even halfway done with the main 3 roles (in stage 10) for each character. Yay for good items!

Well, techincally it was three, since the first three times I was focusing on the Picochus, and then I just decided to Death on Neochu.

It's the second one I beat, the first one was a Titan Trial, and that took me one try.

Marbolo Wand on Vanille, Imperil on Neochu, and Faith on Vanille and Fang on Sab role dramtically increases your chances.

I believe it's upwards of 15% or so.
