FFXVI is fucking garbage.

Let's all try to be as courteous as we can

>>1104136 I really want to know what SE has to say about its piss shit performances and if yoshida will bow a whole minute on camera to apologize for producing that insulting slop

I like Yuffie! She's hot and stinky

>>1104337 FFXVI-2 and a netflix westoid """anime""" adaptation.

Final Fantasy XIII is worth revisiting. 21st century ludo kino, with truly splendorous sight/sound synthesis. Flawed and deep characters, exceptional vocal performances as well as one of the greatest soundtracks in video games. An ATB based combat system that is perhaps the mainline peak for high speed, turn based influenced action. Paradigm Shift is a fantastic modern spin on Job switching on the fly. The best Stagger system in Final Fantasy that accompanies juggle launches of massive enemies and up to 999% damage modifier. Incredible summon designs and animations that are thematically tied to each of the characters. There are so many wonderful things about this truly special game!

>>1104355 YUFFIE CUTIE!

>>1104398 >press forward simulator

>>1104337 >>1104389 I think the game was pretty disappointing for sure but there's still some value there. It's just too bad it wasn't a party based RPG, the style and look and feel of a good chunk of the game is great. But it's weighed down by way too much padding and extremely dull gameplay design. Combat is seriously fun for a few hours, but it can't carry you through a 60 hour RPG. It needed that party management, character switching and the proper FF blue window elements in order for it to all come together and truly work.

>>1104516 >every FF ever: press the A button simulator >press it through dialogue, press it through battle It's a "Command based auto battle walk forward and talk simulator" franchise, I'm afraid. It's like a Visual Novel with slightly different combat systems on top of it

>>1104730 >FFXV poster why am I not surprised by your garbage take?

>>1104895 >Press R2 for Cinematic Concession Fine by me

WHO DO I CHOOSE?

>>1105026 vivi garnet steiner

>>1105040 >Kingdom Hearts Yuffie Oh yes

>>1105065 Done

>>1105079 You now have the soulful team

>>1105341 Fuck yeah, picturesque. Can't wait to see if the remake is real

>>1104337 >>1104136 Liked it better than Rebirth since it didn't waste your time and didn't have so much shit in your face like Chadley.

>>1104398 Mary. Sue.

Better than the awful Remake, but Rebirth was still so mediocre.

>>1107413 >>1107427 >>1107466 Hello shitposter

>>1107466 Eh, as the guy who created >>1065138 I...agree. Btw could use your guys' help in getting that thread merged with this one.

Huh, the projecting shitposter REALLY doesn't like it when other people talk about FF. Weird. V is still the GOAT. XII and Ivalice are solid. Remake is a downgrade and Rebirth is a sidegrade. OG VII is still great. XVI is fine. >>1107560 I feel like a general for the whole franchise would be better than a VII general.

I used to just hate lgihtning but now I want to violently rape her. Is this an improvement? I think so. More importantly we really do not need a fucking final fantasy general. We already have a XIV general (and holy fuck is it a mess) and the other games don't really need a general.

>>1107576 I agree, hence my preexisting thread should be merged into this one. Just need the moderators to do it since my application is going to need some time for the verdict.

I do have a slew of posts to report back on 4chan and the windows for them are still up. Our resident low quality poster will be purged.

What's the best Final Fantasy mini game?

>>1107839 Racing, Tetra Triad or blitzball

she cute

simple combat so good

fuck yeah I beat him with only 2 melee characters

Expectations for FF9R?

>>1111591 Lazy cashgrab or just "okay".

>>1111591 Hopefully just as good if not better than FFVII Remake If it's more of a 1:1 recreation but with new graphics and gameplay, it should be a lot closer to what everyone wanted from VIIR, and I think IX is a much safer and by the numbers entry to do that sort of project with

>>1115060 You aren't very positive, are you?

Freya if she remake

>>1111591 >>1116522 I think they nailed the art style with these figures, if the game really looks like this.....it's gonna be truly special

>>1116638 Agreed. I don't think they will try huge remakea again at least for a while

>>1116125 Just being realistic.

>>1116832 I don't think ff9 needs much, just update the graphics and make combat less slow

I been playing FF2 (famicom/NES) on and off lately. And I just fucking can't with this bullshit leveling system. Legitimately the most unfun, worst mainline FF game.

>>1119984 Yeah I haven't actually tried FFII yet. I think it's got some cool story ideas though so maybe one day I'll go for it

>>1121332 Trust me. FF2's mechanics will make you wish you were playing any other FF game. The story is fine though. So many side characters die. All these deaths make the story feel heavier than most famicom/NES games.

Light...

I love you in every version, Tifa...

>>1127412 holy based

So….are we ever going to get a new FF RPG? Or any new FF game that’s not a remake?

>>1127627 No. nu-FF games just wanna be the next Kingdom Hearts action rpg slop

>>1127600 God she is so beautiful >>1127627 So far according to leakers >FF9R >FFTR SE also wants to remake 6 and X, and make X-3. They probably want their own REmakes era but containing it in one game. >Turn based My theory is that SE intentions were to leave turn based to ips like octopath traveler, bravely default, SaGa and DQ and use FF for experimenting. If I were SE I would try to make star ocean ip more visible and use rebirth combat there if they want to make the next FF turn based. I think SO deserves another chance tbh

Me and my wife

>>1134068 I absolutely love the character art and designs for FF16, it's one of the strong points in my opinion.

>>1135237 Music is great too. All it needed was refined combat and more customization, really.

>>1127796 >God she is so beautiful Yuffie is better and cuter.

>>1138530 I love them both

>>1134068 Anabella and Mid sexo

>name of thread was changed >subtitle of thread was changed What the fuck? Mods can just change what I post?

>>1142830 Yeah they changed one of my threads too

>>1134068 Mid is so fucking wasted, she has such a cool design

Can we agree that 7Rs are good? Yes I think they missed on a few things but the games still 95% faithful to the original and they improved everything from the gameplay to the characters. IMO if padding is your problem, I don't get why you'd hate it. All remakes are padded to a certain degree, you might as well not to touch any vidya remakes other than BDSP (if you like that thing).

>>1147457 Yea I really like the Remakes. Some mini games are not for me. I really hate the Piano and the chicken catching one, but you don't even have to really participate for game progression so I don't see the issue.

>>1147457 I feel like Remake Aerith is a completely different person than OG Aerith. She was rewritten too much. I kinda miss the personality she had in the PS1 game.

>>1148582 It's because they didn't do justice to flesh out her personality in OG, even more so because she left halfway.

>>1148582 She seems like a cunt in rebirth. At least more than the original.

>>1149046 You just don't like it when girls have personality and isn't all meek.

>>1149323 If your personality is being a cunt, then yes, I don't like that.

>>1151015 FF7 was kinda subversive. You look at Aeris and think she is the nice girl. Nope. She is a smug shitposter that likes teasing Cloud. You look at Tifa and think she is the spunky tomboy. Nope. She is the kind and caring one.

>>1149323 >>1151182 I like Yuffie. She shit talks and is quite out going without it seeming like a cunt.

>>1133045 I still miss DFFOO. I can't believe it made fucking Kadaj one of my favorite FF characters.

>>1151258 Nobody is being a cunt (actually I think Yuffie is the closest to being one). You're just wearing hate goggles.

>always wondered why I was banned several times on /ffg/ for completely bullshit reasons like saying "samefag" or talking about the CPR minigame in OG 7, yet certain chronic shitposters were never banned for namefag theatre >remember that some complete fucking retard would schizo post me any time I complained about being unfairly banned relatively often while shitposters were left unchecked >he would then spam "why are you ban evading?" even though I literally never ban evaded and always sat out my unfair bans, sometimes he'd spam this to other people as well, and he'd spam this even when I only got a warning, presumably knowing that my post was pending action, likely because he was the janny >turns out 4chan mods had secret ban reasons and I was very likely being unfairly targeted exactly like I suspected Here, have a fat Tifa for old time's sake.

>>1153881 anagram for Tifa i faT

>>1104398 Still can't believe how good this game looks. Shame about the game tho. At least XIII-2 and Lightning Returns expanded on the formula. The combat in LR is truly unique.

>>1147457 I agree. I love this series. I've played the original and I enjoyed it a lot, but the remake series has gone so far above and beyond the original when it comes to characterization and detail. Gameplay is obviously much better. A lot of people think the story is being changed too much or that it's not being changed enough, but I think they are striking a good balance of new elements and faithful recreations. Personally I wanted them to go more off the rails in Rebirth, but I think after stewing on the ending for this last year I'm convinced part 3 is going to be insane in all the right ways.

>>1148582 Remake Aerith definitely is a different person and that was intentional. I actually really enjoyed her in Remake, and I think the way she behaved in Rebirth was a lot less compelling by comparison. Aerith always carried an air of mystery, and in Remake they turned her into a seeress who has seen her own future already. For me, this was very provocative and I was really interested in her omniscience as a plot element. In Rebirth that's all zapped away, and she's behaving more like the way you'd probably expect Aerith to act based on the original game. A ditzy girl who is kind of cringe and often "tries too hard". >>1149046 You aren't imagining things. There were multiple moments throughout Rebirth where I was physically annoyed by her snark. Whether it's her being uber jealous and bitching at Cloud for giving her yellow lily to Tifa, which goes against her characterization in Remake, or whether it's the way she busts Cloud's balls all the time for not being a romantic or confessing his feelings to her during the Costa Del Sol seashell side quest. Cloud even tells Aerith "you're being mean" during that quest and Aerith apologizes and shuts the fuck up. There were multiple points throughout the game where I was turned off by her personality. Overall I still like her but she's completely overshadowed by Yuffie. >>1151258 Yes. Yuffie is so much better it's actually unreal. She's actually funny, actually cute, and when she busts Cloud's balls it's thematically appropriate instead of feeling like someone genuinely being mean. I know a lot of people don't like her, but for me she's the best. >>1151457 No no, let him cook. Aerith was kind of a cun. Whenever she argued with Cloud about giving away her flower, telling him "don't give flowers to other girls"? Or saying that her date with Cloud is "dead in the water" because Cloud won't just confess to her already (pretty revealing choice of words)

>>1159326 > Personally I wanted them to go more off the rails in Rebirth Yea the end of Remake really made it seem like Rebirth would be entirely original. For a parallel universe it's still very similar.

>>1159793 Woops, Aerith says "DOA/dead on arrival" about her and Clouds seashell date, not "dead in the water". Still quite the cunt turn of phrase to refer to hanging out with someone you care about. Compare this to any of Tifa and Yuffie's side quests where they interact with Cloud extensively. They both genuinely engage with Cloud's personality, rather than trying to force him to speak the way they want him to like Aerith does. Cloud and Aerith do have cute scenes, but so often their romantic scenes have something "off" about them.

>>1104023 Imagine unironically recommending PSP and GBA versions.

>>1160131 The Unknown Journey certainly was an interesting tagline. And yeah, it really sets a certain expectation for the unknown. I think overall Rebirth actually does strike a good balance, and the phantom pain I felt at the ending scene is something that 1000% sets up The Unknown Journey for part 3 in a really cool way. Rebirth really did go off the rails so I have faith that part 3 will be the most insane Final Fantasy game of all time.

>>1160174 Barret is another character that came around. I keep on forgetting the first game was entirely in Midgar and everyone was pretty cold to each other for the most part. He really turns likable in the second part.

>>1160254 Kek true, the OP pasta is pretty damn old and copied from the original 4chan thread from many years ago now. If anyone wants to make a new Pastebin or any new links and resources, feel free to share them

>>1160298 Barret is unreal. 10/10 character no question. It's really insane how great he is, how great so many of the party is compared to how shallow they really were back on PS1. Tifa's warmth and reassurance is vitality, Yuffie's over the top spirit is invigorating, and Barret's steadiness and deep emotional resonance is strengthening, even Cloud himself has so much more depth to his dialogue and the way he interacts with the others which can reflect the themes of each character in a more holistic way. His scenes with Tifa are all better than the original, his scenes with Aerith are all better, his scenes with Barret are all better, Yuffie, Red, etc. VIIR is truly a masterpiece in its character dimension and depth as well as the way those characters and their personalities influence the gameplay design. Truly don't think I've ever seen anything like it

>>1160174 >Cloud and Aerith do have cute scenes, but so often their romantic scenes have something "off" about them. Probably because lusting after your dead bro's girlfriend is always kinda awkward. Legit NTR where you cuck Zack's ghost.

>>1160575 Very true and something that is plainly obvious to anyone who isn't completely autistic kek I do like them but it's so doomed

>>1160575 >Probably because lusting after your dead bro's girlfriend is always kinda awkward. That's why alcohol was invented.

>>1162598 Cloud only drinks with Tifa

>>1163376 Sake bombs with Yuffie!

>>1160174 I see. You're that schizo who was coping because your pairing is not favored by the devs.

Eclaire Farron... anyway, did /ffg/ end up here?

>>1164286 I replied to you earlier though >>1159326 >that pic >goodbye Cloud I'm gonna go die now >it was nice "liking" you >dies >teehee JK, I'm here to fight Sephiroth >actually I'm gonna haunt you now as well Unironically what did she mean by this?

>>1164420 >Eclaire Farron We out here mate! Some mod changed the name of the thread from /ffg/ Final Fantasy General MMCXII though, I guess they don't appreciate the whole "general" thing

Why the fuck are there IDs on /v/?

>>1164626 I like it

>>1147457 >good >95% faithful >improved everything >b-but all remakes are padded (pulled out of ass) Eh... Also why can't I play as Red, Cid, or Vincent?

>>1164286 Pay the shitter no mind. Even going as far as to crap on the original with ChatGPT posting. I swear that fag has never played anything videogames except XIII and VIIRs.

>>1167179 Shut up punk ass shitposter. Post about Final Fantasy. If you don't like what I say, reply to my post with some conviction like a man. Passive aggressive fag

Damn why is the projecting shitposter so aggressive? What an attention whore too. >nooo talk to meee >says to talk about FF while not talking about FF, despite my pics

>shitposter seethed about Rebirth >shitposter seethed about Lightning >shitposter seethed about Remake and Rebirth again, all back to back >gets called a shitposter >reflexively shitposts in retaliation, failing to reply like a pussy >continues to seethe about other posters >shitposts FFIX Remake before it even exists >finally posts FFXVI without shitposting (what a surprise) >returns days later, shitposts Rebirth again >continues to seethe about other posters (again) >gets called a shitposter again, fails to reply again, continues shitposting Rebirth 7aa604, this thread is much better without you

>all that offtopic projecting Not even sure how my IX remake comment could even classify as "shitposting". Though I guess by it's logic then >>1104730 is also a shitpost for calling the whole franchise an auto battling visual novel sim. And the most milquetoast banter or criticisms are also somehow "shitposts" as well. And forgets >>1107576.

Squaresoft needs to let xenogears go! #freexenogears

>>1168056 Surely MonolithSoft is working with them on a Xenogears remake!

>>1160254 Personally I would have chosen Pixel Remasters all day if not for the missing contents. Whatever Jewish commandment is Square doing with this.

>>1160254 That's underselling that pastebin's ability to recommend a bad version of almost every single game. >unmodded PC VII and VIII >smartphone IX >X HD >Steam XIV

>>1167070 >Also why can't I play as Red, Cid, or Vincent? That's like asking "why isn't the game turn-based anymore?". You just want to complain for everything, don't you?

アエリス！

I can't wait for Tifa's parts in part 3 bros >>1168142 Even Lunar remastered exists now. Personally I want someone to remember Lufia games. I know Lufia 2 got a remake but it was mid at best. It's like with Capcom refusing to release Breath of Fire, some games are just cursed.

>>1149323 Being meek is a personality for girls. Anything else is just them being contrarian, and then they lament about how the world treats them when they're a bitch to everyone around them. Much like Aeris, lol.

>>1170219 >I know Lufia 2 got a remake but it was mid at best And yet, you still wonder why no dev caters to your ungrateful ass.

>>1170743 And yet, you still wonder why no consumers will purchase your half-assed goyslop.

I wonder what happened to the FFXIII Series leaks

>>1168624 I haven't really looked into them as far as gameplay goes. For 1 and 2 I prefer Origins. For 3-5 graphically the pixel remasters look alright. For 6 the original fucks the pixel remaster. I know they're pretty moddable but not to what extent. >>1168797 I just stopped reading lol

I'll try to make a new pastebin later

>>1168624 >Pixel remasters are bad for not having content of other versions >>1168928 >Remakes are good for not having PLAYABLE CHARACTERS of the original

>>1167333 Why WAS Rebirth and remake so slow? So many slow walk moments and slow ass minigames.

>>1178055 That's like comparing apples to oranges, but whatever makes your day anon.

>>1178055 "Remake" is misleading. It's a full blown reimagining.

Would you give Yuffie all your materia?

>>1179114 Yes, and by give her all my materia I mean give her all my cum inside her womb.

>>1179114 >>1179719 b-b-b-b-based

>>1178328 Hidden loading times plus them trying to extend ff7 plot too much. With Rebirth they made it bigger which is good but they over did it with the mini games. They are probably still trying to find a good balance More freedom with this system sounds really good though, in case they want to make another action jrpg

This place sucks. I wanna go back to 4chan bros.

>>1178578 No excuse for no RCV tho

>>1192000 >he wants to go back to nonstop shitposting, schizophrenic namefaggotry, and mods/jannies who favor the shitposters in all interactions because the jannies are the shitposters No thanks. You can already see it partially manifesting itself here anyway with the """42""" UIDs, most of which only have 1 or 2 posts. This place is awesome. >>1178055 Yeah, kinda funny. >Pixel Remasters < = Jewish for not including the shitty additional content Soul of Rebirth was kino though >VII Remake < = good and not Jewish, despite Square Enix making players purchase 3 separate games across 2 different consoles over the course of a decade so that they can "recreate" the experience of a single game that was originally sold 25 years ago, this time with ghosts. By the way, the new game doesn't make any sense unless you've played the original game, so it's not a definitive edition either. And don't even think about asking why certain characters aren't playable, idiot!

>>1193602 Seeing how little they changed they can just jump onto part 3 if SE decides to add AC and a new epilogue, since time jannies ended up being nothing

>>1168928 >>1178530 Uh no, it's really not. Why do you defend bad game design?

Why the hell did I buy FFXV?

>>1196221 It's fine as long as you got it on discount.

lol?

>>1193602 This place lacks posters and interaction. I would rather have shitpostings all day rather than this graveyard.

>>1199181 Proof that 16 is good.

I am playing Final Fantasy VII Remake. This game is goofy. The characters are somehow dodging thousands of bullets unscathed. Also, why am I constantly squeezing through gaps?

>>1168056 They will when they make a new Nier game too

>>1200774 It's just not that good. Enjoy your bloated dungeons and way-too-long-cutscene-ridden Wall Market arc too. >>1201192 The saving grace. But I do think they made her too... animated? In Rebirth. Like if AI or aliens tried making her lively and goofy, it's just off. "Forced soul" if you will.

>>1200774 It's the best video game remake and imo the best Final Fantasy game.

>FFIX Remake Please no I don't need to hear Garnet lecture Zidane about groping
