It's not a bad list overall, though I seem to be on the opposite end of the 'divisive' nature of FF VIII that he mentions. I'm also more favourably disposed towards FF IX than he is; I think it's the best post-16 bit FF until XII. I'm not sure any game in the series has more charm.
Welcome to the light.

By livefromkyoto Go To PostJeremy Parish just did a ranking of all the numbered Final Fantasies:Yeah, that wasn't too bad. My tops would be some mix of VI, IX, XII, and XIV 2.0+. I really didn't like VII or VIII. The other SNES ones and X were ok. XI was too much grind and not enough action for me. The NES ones are all terrible to play.

By FortuneFaded Go To Post8 above 7 & 9? The fuck?We're ironically into FF 8 now. It's the hot ticket. It's like when people pretend Zelda 2 is great
By data Go To PostWe're ironically into FF 8 now. It's the hot ticket. It's like when people pretend Zelda 2 is greatFelt like Dark Souls 2 had a brief period of this, then got put back in its box
By Pennywise Go To PostJanuary sale is live.good looking out
Might wanna take a look at that one :P
I checked out the sale, nothing jumps out, but I might change my mind. Copped Forza 7 tho

I mostly agree. I quite liked VII but I don't put it on the same pedestal that others do. Playing through FF XV and listening to the FF VII soundtrack while you drive around is like...eep, all those cheesy slightly out of tune MIDI brass sounds. TBH I think 3D 32-bit rpgs in general have aged horribly. The 16-bit stuff has aged much more gracefully.
I had I&II on a GBA cart on DS. I finished the first, which is indeed hard & grindy. But I gave up on the second one pretty early in.
X is like...a battle system I liked wrapped in a whole lot of goofiness.

I can almost see it, but FF VIII is just opaque and boring, while Zelda II is actively hateful towards the player. I really think most of the FF VIII love is nostalgia. It probably seemed a whole lot more impressive back in the day.
I’ve always loved 8 why is it the cool thing now? It was my first FF so maybe that’s a huge reason why
pretty good list. The top two are correct. I never hated 8 but definitely liked 7 and 9 more.
Also glad X is in the shit tier behind 15 where it belongs

The HDR in Witcher 3 is dope. Actually the entire presentation is really sharp, 4k+HDR.
Cyberpunk gonna be crazy

I wonder if that will even be this gen...or if they'll do the Zelda/GTA trick of launching at the end of the gen to hit max install base, with another version scaled up to the next hardware (GTA V did this more ruthlessly by releasing the next gen version later on to make people double dip).
By DY_nasty Go To Post9 is such a turd of a FF game

By DY_nasty Go To Post9 is such a turd of a FF game9 might be the best imo

Only FFs i've played and beaten is X/X-2. With that said FFXII is on clearance at Target. So picked up a copy for $15 along with God of War remaster for $6.

Muh belt buckles
It had more heart than any of them.
By diehard Go To Postthat was a game/system hiccup not netcode?
I don't even know. I'm 110% mad right now.
By HottestVapes Go To PostI don't even know. I'm 110% mad right now.Is the game on an SSD or HDD?
By diehard Go To PostIs the game on an SSD or HDD?
Was on my SSD until I uninstalled it after that fuckery happened.
pubg is 100% a game you're supposed to play for fun and fukkery intentionally
a siege/go approach is just asking for migraines

By HottestVapes Go To PostWas on my SSD until I uninstalled it after that fuckery happened.my dude i'm not sure PC gaming in general is for you haha
pubg reminds me of my pal who could never play any game seriously much to the chagrin of well everyone. He was the type of dude who'd get people in vehicles in war games and then just drive or fly out to sea. He'd put mines around snipers saying shit like "this is for your protection." Dude even finds ways to troll in shit like LoL and Fighters. I wonder what he's doing right now to folks in Heroes of the Storm.
By diehard Go To Postmy dude i'm not sure PC gaming in general is for you haha
At this point, I’m sure it’s just PUBG that isn’t for me.
By Random Ass Username Go To PostHow much is pubg anyway? Anything over 5 bucks seems too high.2 much for early access, but at least they update their fucking game more than once a quarter. i think its 30 or something (at least when i got it on pc)
its fun, and i think the absolute best thing about the game is that they convinced everyone that winning is rare no matter what you do or how good you are. it takes so much bullshit out of the fps atmosphere that its really refreshing
that being said, fortnite got next
how wrong was data
wow
PUBG is like the 76ers of gaming, you can't dwell on it's problems right now.. you have to respect the process.
I wonder if people's tolerance for it will decrease now that it is kind of "out" now. Seen it happen for other games.
By HottestVapes Go To PostFam, I'm done. This level of fuckery just isn't for me.
🤣
By Facism Go To PostIs there any patches or mods for ff9 on emulators that unfucks the battle speed?Isn't that part of the Steam/PS4 version? FF7 had that speed up mode you could activate with a button to enable more speed whenever you like.
By Laboured Go To PostI wonder if people's tolerance for it will decrease now that it is kind of "out" now. Seen it happen for other games.
Steam reviews are perpetually mixed.
I'll look into the steam version penny
By Facism Go To PostIs there any patches or mods for ff9 on emulators that unfucks the battle speed?The Steam version lets you ignore random encounters completely. Also has turbo mode, iirc.
